The first thing Hu Zongmao thought of was He Kui. He Kui repeatedly persuaded him to defend Hezhou City. Even if there was a huge change outside the city, he would not leave the city easily. When he thought of this, Hu Zongmao only felt that every word the little clerk said was a supreme saying, but unfortunately everything was too late. With his long-standing sense of smell, he finally realized that he had entered the trap.
Although he was shocked, Hu Zongmao was not a fool after all. He had been through the battlefield for a long time and heard the cavalry rushing towards him, and the distance was getting closer and closer. Without hesitation, he waved his sword and moved forward, "rushing up to the Gobi slope!"
With a command, the soldiers woke up. Yes, the Gobi slope was like a wall. As long as they rushed to it, the cavalry did not have wings and could not fly up, and the impact of the cavalry would be eliminated invisibly.
More than 2,000 officers and soldiers rushed towards the Gobi slope in a swarm. Hu Zongmao's less than 200 cavalrymen rushed forward, preparing to get under the Gobi slope, and then dismount and pull the horse down the Gobi slope.
The dense crowds of people were getting closer to the Gobi slope, and they suddenly heard screams from the crowd. The group of cavalry rushing in front of them and screamed repeatedly, falling from the horse. A deputy general also turned over and fell off the horse. He was stepped on by a horse behind and stopped moving in an instant. Hu Zongmao was originally urging the horse to move forward. With the screams, he saw the arrows in front flying like locusts. He immediately waved his sword and opened the arrows in the future.
At this time, he had already seen that the Gobi slope, which was originally empty, was just like a ghost, and the archers were descending from above and the arrows fell like rain.
"Retreat quickly...there are Chu troops on it..." Someone was already shouting in the formation.
The rebels who were rushing toward the Gobi slope were immediately frustrated. There were arrows in front of them, and running forward was undoubtedly a death sentence. At this time, the sound of horse hooves coming from behind was already close. The rebel soldiers who were left behind turned around and saw hundreds of cavalry emerged from the dark night, all waving their sabers and rushing towards them like a black torrent.
Even the most ordinary rebel soldier knew that he was ambushed. Although there were more than 2,000 soldiers, the morale of the rebels had already fallen to the bottom. A deputy general who had cut off the back could barely calm his mind and shouted loudly, "The shield soldiers are in front, and the spear soldiers are fighting..."
The rebels were in front of the army, with people and horses flying over and screaming in succession. The entire team was in chaos. When the rear army heard the order of generals, a few shield soldiers barely lined up. However, before they could stand firm in the formation, hundreds of cavalry had already hit hard. For a moment, the rebels were over and over and over and over and screamed. When the cavalry hit, the saber in their hands had already chopped down without hesitation.
Although these hundreds of cavalrymen were not large in number, they were very well-trained, cruel and decisive and sharp. Although Hu Zongmao brought out the main force and had a lot of combat experience, he was frightened and unable to resist. The cavalry rushed into the rebel formation like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. The sword light passed, blood was flying, and screaming repeatedly. The shrill screams made the already panic-torn rebel soldiers scattered.
Hearing the sound of trumpets, the archers on the Gobi slope saw the cavalry rushing into the rebel formation and had already retreated. The moment they retreated, the sound of mountains and thunders sounded from behind the Gobi slope, and countless soldiers of the Chu army emerged from behind the Gobi slope. This was not a retreating defeated army. Everyone's eyes showed excitement, like wolves and tigers, like black clouds pressing over, and swooped down from the Gobi slope from high to low.
The Chu army's troops were far superior to the rebels. The previous siege was frustrated, and many Chu soldiers corpsed under the city of Hezhou. The Chu army was full of anger. Tonight, the rebels were trapped. The main force went out of the city to chase the enemy. Now that they entered the trap, the Chu army was naturally not polite. In the fire, the cold swords and guns emitted a faint light, and soldiers everywhere rushed down. The Chu army, which was originally regarded as a lamb to be slaughtered by the rebels, became a tiger going down the mountain, with its morale as a rainbow, and the wind and clouds changed. The heaven and earth seemed to tremble at this moment.
The one who rushed in front was a warrior wearing armor but a short stature. The armor was very incompatible. It was the little overlord Qin Lei. His face was full of excitement. Although he was wearing thick armor and not tall, his figure was extremely flexible. He was fast, and he rushed down the Gobi slope with an iron stick in his hand, jumped up. He looked at a cavalry who was in a panic. The iron stick had already swept across. He heard a scream. The cavalry riding on the horse was actually beaten away by the iron stick.
Qin Lei turned over the horse and shouted loudly: "This is the horse I snatched, no one is allowed to snatch it again..." He grabbed the horse's belly, waved the iron stick in his hand, and rushed into the rebel formation.
The two armies collided in an instant. Hu Zongmao was already pale at this time. He saw his subordinates in a mess. The Chu army was as strong as a rainbow and murderous intent, and wanted to organize resistance. However, the entire battlefield was already in chaos. How could he gather people and kill a Chu army soldier who was killing him, turned his horse and ran northwest without saying a word.
His whole body was cold at this time, and he regretted it. He knew that Chu Huan was carefully designed and faced a head-on battle, and he was definitely not Chu Huan's opponent. However, he thought in his heart that Hezhou City was still in his hands, leaving him here to die, and escaping back to Hezhou City might have a glimmer of hope. At this time, he didn't care about his subordinates who were trapped in the battle formation, and just wanted to quickly escape back to Hezhou City.
He was a good horse under his crotch, picking one in a thousand miles, and the speed was fast. Several deputy generals around him saw the main general heading west, understood it, followed him, and followed Hu Zongmao.
I have to say that Hu Zongmao was indeed a powerful general on the battlefield, and he was even more determined to break through, so he was also cruel to use his sword. He jumped out of the bloody path in the chaos. In the darkness, he didn't look back and rushed to the west, following only dozens of subordinates behind him, fleeing in a panic.
Chu Huan rode the Thunder Fire Kirin, and was standing proudly on the Gobi slope. The situation on the battlefield was in sight. Seeing Hu Zongmao and dozens of people bleed, fleeing westward, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
His Thunder and Fire Kirin is a peerless divine horse. With his martial arts, he is confident that as long as he slapped his horse and chased him, he would have already killed Hu Zongmao on his horse before Hu Zongmao ran to Hezhou City.
But he did not do this, but watched Hu Zongmao take his people away.
Because his goal is not to kill the enemy in front of the formation, but to seize Hezhou City.
"Everyone in Xun's camp listened." On the slope of the Gobi, the sound of thunder was thunder. "This time, I sent troops to kill the evil people and did not implicate the innocent. You were all blinded by Hu Zongmao. If you immediately abandon your weapons and surrender, I promise that you will never pursue your crimes. If you resist stubbornly, I will never show mercy... Your master has abandoned you and fled. Could it be that you still have to work for him?"
There were sounds of killing on the battlefield, mixed together, but Chu Huan's voice was as breath as thunder, and it spread on the chaotic battlefield.
Although the officers and soldiers of Xun camp were ambushed and frightened, they were all soldiers who passed through the battle formation. Although they were in adversity, they still fought to survive.
As soon as Chu Huan said this, many people in the formation heard it. The rebels may not believe Chu Huan's words, but everyone knows that continuing to fight with the Chu army several times more than them is only a dead end. It is better to put down your weapons and surrender, and perhaps there is still a glimmer of hope.
The soldiers of Xun camp had no intention of rebellion themselves. Most of the soldiers were just tied into a chariot by Hu Zongmao. Although Hu Zongmao commanded the Xun camp, he had not had much time and did not have much favor to the soldiers of Xun camp. The soldiers of Xun camp were not very loyal to Hu Zongmao and just obeyed the orders. Now that the general fled, the disaster was about to come, some soldiers no longer hesitated, threw down their weapons, knelt on the ground and begged for surrender. There was the first surrendered soldier, and naturally there was a second. Facing the sharp swords and guns of the Chu army, a large number of officers and soldiers of Xun camp abandoned their weapons and surrendered, and the Chu army did not attack the surrendered soldiers who surrendered their weapons.
However, some of the direct descendants promoted by Hu Zongmao still had to resist stubbornly, but as long as the sword in their hands was not put down, a large group of people would rush over to kill. Seeing that the rebellion would definitely die, all the rebel soldiers left their weapons and dared not fight again.
There was already a river of blood flowing on the battlefield, and corpses were everywhere. Although the officers and soldiers of Xun camp had already bowed their heads to surrender, hundreds of corpses were still lying on the battlefield.
Hu Zongmao didn't know that his two thousand officers and soldiers had already bowed down to surrender just because of Chu Huan's words. He only hoped that his subordinates could fight to the end and drag the Chu army down so as not to follow him.
He Kui on the top of Hezhou City had a serious face. From the moment Hu Zongmao left the city, he felt very uneasy. His eyes were always looking to the east. The night was dark and I couldn't see much farther. There was a dead silence. He Kui's eyes twitched. Suddenly, a sound of horse hooves came from a faint sound. He Kui's brows were tight, but the deputy general Chen Shu, who was beside him, opened his eyebrows and said, "Secretary He, I'm afraid that the general took Chu Huan and had already led his army back triumphantly."
The sound of horse hooves is getting closer and closer. Dozens of shadows have emerged from the dark side, flying towards the city gate. He Kui has heard a hoarse voice from there: "Open the city gate quickly, open the city gate quickly, the general is back!"
Everyone on the city wall saw that the first person was racing, wearing a costume. Hu Zongmao, the garrison commander of Hezhou City, followed by twenty or thirty cavalrymen, with the shouts filled with fear and panic.
He Kui's heart sank.
When Chen Shu saw that Hu Zongmao had only brought dozens of cavalry back, he knew that something was wrong, so he immediately shouted: "Hurry up, open the city gate and let the general enter the city..."
"Let's wait!" He Kui raised his hand and said solemnly: "Don't open the city gate first..."
"The general has returned, why don't he open the city gate?" Chen Shu's face darkened, "He Kui, do you want the general to be unable to enter the city?"
