Li Che never hoped that the sky would get darker as much as today.

On this day, he had no idea how many attacks he had repelled from the enemy. The fence was pushed down, the trench was filled, and the entire defensive circle was compressed in half. The soldiers who were on the front line suffered heavy losses, and the soldiers in the palace suffered more casualties.

In one of the just attacks, a team of Khitan cavalry broke into the camp and burned down the grain reserves of the Cheng German army with a fire. Although none of the Khitan cavalry could escape and were all annihilated in the camp, the losses caused were extremely huge.

The army was surrounded and now there was no food. At this time, even the most optimistic people were already desperate.

Shi Yi didn't care about the casualties of the Khitan cavalry at all, and forced them to launch again and again attacks. After the captured soldiers were exhausted, the Khitan cavalry became the vanguard. He launched a charge with all his might, while Shi Yi led Lu Long's troops to follow the road opened by the Khitan cavalry and rushed inward, causing huge damage to the Cheng German army again and again.

The sun set the horizon, and the sky gradually darkened. The attacking enemies finally sounded the sound of golden gongs to withdraw their troops. In the camp, the Cheng German troops relaxed in one breath and collapsed on the ground one after another.

At this time, no one thought of surrendering.

The consequences of the Chengde Mansion soldiers who surrendered yesterday were in front of everyone! Most of them turned into dead bodies between the two armies during today's attack. Some of them were killed by their former comrades, while others died under the butcher knife of the Khitan cavalry or the Lu Long army.

At this time, the Lu Long Army and the Khitan cavalry had retreated. They took away their comrades, injured or turned into dead bodies, but they ignored these prisoners who became German troops.

Those who are dead naturally don’t care about this kind of treatment, but there are still many injured and undead who are still lying on the battlefield and screaming.

Lu Long's army ignored them. The Chengde army in the camp also hated them deeply at this time and did not care about them at all. The situation was really terrible.

The sky finally got dark and it was about to get dark. But the Cheng German army did not breathe a sigh of relief, but became even more desperate because reality hit them again.

Another army appeared in the distance.

But that was not to support them. It was another life-destroying talisman.

Because the troops and the flags of the Zhenwu Army that came were about 5,000.

It's getting dark. They won't launch an attack today, but what about tomorrow?

Tomorrow is my life-ending day.

Li Che sat cross-legged on the ground, his body covered in blood. In today's battle, he suffered a lot of injuries. His armor was damaged in many places. Following his last hundred spirit cavalry, there are less than fifty people who are still alive by his side.

Wang Mingren walked over with a crock pot and handed it to Li Che, "Eat some, it's just a mess, it doesn't smell very good."

He took the jar, reached out and took a handful of black stuff from the inside and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it heavily, and his lips turned black in the blink of an eye.

Li Che took a few bites, but his whole body was frozen, and shed tears. He looked at Wang Mingren with a sob and said, "I didn't expect that I, Li Che, would die here."

Wang Mingren took two steps forward, blocking the other people's sight and preventing others from seeing Li Che at this time. He was the courage of the army. At this time, Chengde's morale had reached the lowest point and had not completely collapsed. It was just that the tragic situation of the prisoners yesterday stimulated them. He knew that even if he surrendered, he would not have a good end, so he tried his best to gather together.

But if Li Che himself collapses, there will be no chance.

"Major General, calm down." Wang Mingren half-kneeled in front of Li Che, grabbed Li Che's hand tightly, and whispered.

"Mingren, we are going to die here. How could I die like this? I haven't shown my great picture yet!" Li Che whimpered.

"Major General, there is still a chance. It's not the last time to despair." Wang Mingren whispered, "Major General must be calm, don't panic. If you panic and get in chaos, that's really the end."

"Where are there any chances?" Li Che reluctantly held back his crying.

"The opportunity is tonight." Wang Mingren said: "The enemy has been fighting hard for a day today, and reinforcements have arrived, so tonight must be their most relaxed time. We will break through today."

"Breakthrough? Shi Yi is a veteran, I'm afraid he won't give us such a chance."

"The opportunity is made." Wang Mingren said firmly: "Major General, we still have hundreds of armored soldiers and nearly five thousand palace soldiers, not without the power of a battle. At that time, you find a loyal subordinate, change into your armor, and ride your war horses. Li Bo and I will lead everyone to break through in the direction of Chengde."

Li Che's eyes flashed.

"You took the last fifty cavalry and lie dormant in the camp. After the war on our side entered a white-hot stage, we immediately broke through in the direction of Zhangwu. I think at that time, the main forces of the enemy were all attracted by us. In the direction of Zhangwu, it would be empty. Even if there were people to guard them, they were just scouts. At most, there were a small number of enemies, and there would still be a chance to break out. Here we reach Zhangwu, only a hundred miles, and the enemy dared not chase too deep. Because Liu Chenglin must have received the news at this moment, maybe he was on the road to rescue us at this moment. When he arrived at Zhangwu, you would be safe." Wang Mingren said.

"Then, what about you?" Li Che was a little nervous.

Wang Mingren smiled: "Don't forget, Li Bo and I have nearly a thousand soldiers and five thousand soldiers in the palace. Maybe we can return to Shenzhou earlier than you. Even if there is something, as long as you go out, it will be worth it."

Li Che shed tears again and held Wang Mingren's hand tightly: "Mingren, you must go back alive."

Wang Mingren smiled slightly: "Even if you can't go back, it's nothing. As long as you are safe, Major General, my father doesn't make me worry. It's my younger brother. Although he has a good job in business, he only has a slight understanding of politics. After the Major General returns, please take care of him."

"Don't worry, you will definitely be able to go back. Even if you really can't go back, I will definitely put all the things you deserve in Mingyi in the future."

"Thank you, Major General. Major General, please call all the generals to discuss matters. What I just told you, except for the fifty cavalry you are close to, don't say anything else, just say that we will break through at midnight, I will attack the first, Li Bo is the second, you are the third, and they will not be suspicious of this arrangement. As long as you fight, everything cannot be changed."

"Don't Li Bo tell me?"

Wang Mingren shook his head.

Li Che's eyes flashed, and he also understood what Wang Mingren meant.

There were only a few burning fires in the entire camp, illuminating the dilapidated camp, and the whole camp looked silent. But in a place where the fire could not be shining, countless people were quietly preparing.

No matter what it is, whatever you can put it in your mouth to eat, whether it is raw or cooked, it will be stuffed into your mouth to chew. They are about to break through. Next, they not only need physical strength, but also don’t know where the next meal will be. Even if they break through and escape from Hejian all the way back to Shenzhou, this journey will be difficult. If they have more physical strength at this time, they may have more hope of escaping.

Escape, sometimes you may just need to run faster than your companions.

After midnight, the Chengde army in the camp had already assembled.

Wang Mingren brought six hundred soldiers and two thousand palace soldiers as pioneers, Li Bo led three hundred soldiers and two thousand palace soldiers as the second wave of attack, while Li Che then came out as the third wave.

As for all the injured people, they had to give up at this time.

Under the night sky, Wang Mingren led his army to quietly touch the Khitan cavalry.

This choice is naturally of particularity. It seems that Khitan cavalry has horses, and it is not easy to break through from them. But in fact, the military discipline of Khitan soldiers is the most casual. When camping, they will not have many precautions like other Tang troops. As long as they can attack their team, there will still be great success with the combat capabilities of the soldiers.

More importantly, once they succeed, they can grab a lot of war horses.

Li Che stood in the camp and witnessed Wang Mingren stepping out of the camp without hesitation. As a general trained in the Tang Dynasty military system, he knew very well that no matter which general was on the other side, he would not give the enemy such an opportunity. What's more, Shi Yi was famous for his steadiness in Lu Long's army.

Wang Mingren does have the chance to successfully defeat the Khitans, but it will only attract the fierce attacks of Tang soldiers and generals such as Lu Long and even Zhenwu. In other words, Wang Mingren is actually using his life to open the way for Li Che.

His eyes were sour and astringent.

Just as Li Che was fighting to trap beasts, Liu Chenglin was angrily looking at an official catching up from behind. Zhang Wu was only more than a hundred miles away from Hejian. After Liu Chenglin occupied Zhang Wu, he sent scouts to Hejian. He received news from the Hejian Incident at the first time. He did not hesitate and immediately rectified his troops and went to Hejian to rescue.

But when he was only halfway through, an official from the Henghai Jiedushi Mansion caught up with him.

At this time, Liu Chenglin was fifty miles away from Hejian. He estimated that he would arrive at Hejian when it was dark, and the Cheng German army should be able to hold on until he was going to aid.
