Chapter 169 Lantian decisive battle (5)

The soldiers of the Xiliang Army were not willing to fight to the death. It was because these coalition generals were too brave. The most famous brave generals in the Xiliang Army were easily defeated. What's the use of them?

When the soldiers of the Xiliang army in front turned around and fled, the ones following them were still hesitant. However, at this moment, only a sound of tiger roars came, and six fierce generals rushed into the Xiliang army and launched a fierce attack on these Xiliang soldiers. These six fierce generals were fierce and domineering, just like tigers entering a pack of wolves. The one who came to Piyi was there, and no one could be their enemy.

In the era of cold weapons, the generals were the courage of the army. The shock caused by a fierce general was enough to boost one's morale, and at the same time greatly reduced the morale of the enemy, playing a key role in turning the situation around the war at critical moments. What's more, six generals are attacking at the same time, which caused considerable lethality to the enemy. In less than a stick of incense, hundreds of soldiers from the Western Liang army were killed.

After these six powerful generals, Chen Dao's seven thousand Baili Army and Li Su's eight thousand Feixiong Army followed closely. Li Su's flying bear army was fine. Although it was powerful in combat, the Western Liang army had never seen their strength. However, Chen Dao's seven thousand Baili Army was awe-inspiring world. These seven thousand soldiers in white robes stood here, representing terrifying pressure. Almost all the soldiers of the Western Liang army were cheering in their hearts and fled when they saw them.

Although Li Jue strengthened military discipline this time and personally led his personal soldiers to supervise the battle in the rear, killing hundreds of escaped Xiliang soldiers in succession, and finally barely stabilized the formation, these soldiers were all afraid of the enemy and were afraid to go forward. After the coalition soldiers attacked, they barely resisted for a while, and finally turned around and prepared to escape. They could not escape, so they could only put down their weapons and squat on the ground to surrender.

"Hateful! Kill me!" Li Jue was furious and immediately waved his spear and personally directed his most elite personal soldiers to come forward, trying to control the situation.

His personal soldiers were indeed elite, and they were brave and fearless in their lives. However, the gap in strength was too big. Not to mention that they all ended up killing each other in front of the six fierce generals. Even when facing the Bai Li army, they had only the ability to resist and had no power to fight back, and they didn't even have the chance to parry. The earliest group of soldiers of the Bai Li army only took half a year from enlistment to the army, and the latest one was less than three months. However, they were usually trained strictly, and then they were sent by Chen Dao to the battlefield to fight against Zhang Ji in actual combat. With Chen Dao's double-character bonus, the ability of individual combat is really not comparable to those of the soldiers of the Xiliang Army.

So in just a cup of tea, Li Jue's 8,000 personal soldiers lost about half. This huge loss was really unbearable for Li Jue, because the number of personal soldiers lost in such a short time was far more than the total losses of personal soldiers in all the wars he had experienced before.

What's more, behind the Baili Army, there is an Eight Thousand Flying Bear Army with a weaker combat power than the Baili Army. Their commander Li Su has the characteristics of breaking cavalry and is the nemesis of the cavalry. This team's lethality to the Western Liang Army is only under the Baili Army, and it is also a fatal threat to the Western Liang Army.

Li Jue had a little care about the strong combat power of the army under Pei Qing before. He even attributed the reason for the failure to the sudden riots of his own army during the Battle of Shangluo. However, this head-on conflict was defeated so badly that he immediately lost confidence and was extremely shocked.

"What army is under Pei Qing's command? They are like wolves and tigers. They are so desperate when fighting. Their combat power is so strong, similar to monsters. I really don't know how he trained such an army? I thought my Xiliang army could dominate the world, but now it seems that it looks a bit too high."

Li Jue smiled bitterly, and without saying anything, he ordered the army to retreat immediately.

Although it was a retreat, the military appearance was not too chaotic. After all, with Li Jue there, the Xiliang army was all cavalry, coming and going like the wind, so under normal circumstances, as long as there was a sequence of retreats, the result would definitely not be too miserable.

However, what is unexpected is that at this moment, someone shouted not far away: "The Xiliang Army is defeated, the Xiliang Army is defeated, everyone should run away quickly. If it is too late, they will be killed by the Guandong Alliance Army without leaving any armor!"

With this shout, Li Jue watched his soldiers immediately fall into chaos. The soldiers behind him immediately seemed to be crazy and fled forward desperately. In order to escape, they didn't care about any array and order. They killed everyone in front, so the soldiers killed each other and trampled on them, and countless people died.

"Damn it! I understand. Everything is the instigation of this guy, and it was the same last time!" Li Jue finally saw the person who caused his great defeat. He knew that this person was Zhu Fu, the eldest son of Zhu Jun. He was furious and immediately rushed forward to kill Zhu Fu. However, he did not expect that Zhu Fu's martial arts had increased significantly. He had been persistent for more than twenty rounds without taking him down. At this time, the Guandong coalition forces had already reached the forefront. If he did not escape, his life would be left here, so Li Jue had to give up Zhu Fu and lead his army to leave.

At this moment, he could only hear the sound of breaking through the air from behind. Li Jue was skillful in archery and horses. He knew that someone was using a powerful arch and crossbow to attack him. Naturally, he did not dare to neglect him. He quickly turned to dodge, but with a puff, a feather arrow penetrated into his shoulder blades. The severe pain made him scream. Fortunately, he avoided it in time, otherwise the arrow would have killed him directly.

However, Li Jue's scream made the soldiers around him think he was dead, and they were even more unwilling to fight. The last fear of him disappeared, and they ran forward even more desperately. In this way, the entire army of the central army was completely in chaos.

At this time, Li Jue was no longer able to restrain these soldiers. Fortunately, his personal soldiers were still loyal to him and protected him and fought a way out at critical moments, and finally escaped.

However, Li Jue looked back and saw that his tens of thousands of Xiliang soldiers had completely become a mess. The soldiers died, died, and surrendered. Although Ma Teng and Han Sui's army were struggling to resist, once the central army collapsed, there was basically no hope for this battle. Even if they wanted to gather troops in the future, there was almost no possibility of making a comeback. So he sighed and seemed to have no chance of him now.

At this moment, I suddenly felt a thought in my heart. Since I was not going to finish anyway, I would drag all the ministers and ministers to do it together. Why not take this opportunity to retreat to Chang'an, hold the emperor and all officials hostage, and use them as hostages to exchange for their own safety? If Pei Qing dares not agree, he will die with them at least. At that time, Guan Bao will make Pei Qing a bad reputation.
