How can self-chaos collapse without a fight? Xiang Ying didn't understand, but Wang Wu did.

To put it nicely, these people in Huiji County are called the army, but in fact they are just a group of Qiantou leaders who have been in the army for less than ten days, and they can expect them to run dozens of miles and gather at a certain place, but after running for dozens of miles, they will form an interception trend purely because they are thinking too much.

Xiang Ying used a rabble with not many troops as an elite division, how could he not be confused?

But it's useless to say anything now, what should be done is to ask Xiang Zhu for help quickly, otherwise under the charge of Lu Zhejun's charge, it is really hard to say how many of the 40,000 troops will be left in the end.

Not only did the Chu army not expect that the shape would evolve into this, but Lu Zhejun actually didn't think that the Chu army's vigorous interception would evolve into a situation of self-chaos.

Will He Yi and many lieutenants let go of such an opportunity? No! How could they give up this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and suddenly excitedly led the troops to chase the Chu army for a while.

Shu Dao, who was grassy on the wall, never thought that the Chu army would be so unbearable, and in this kind of winning situation, he could not let go of the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and even the Shu clan fought this kind of tailwind battle to show that they were more ferocious than the soldiers of the Nanjun system, and slowly they changed from following behind to running in front, killing the Chu soldiers to be more active than the soldiers of the Nanjun system.

Xiang Zhu, who gradually withdrew from the center of Danyang City, because the direction of retreat was southeast, it was not clear what was going on Xiang Ying's side, so after they withdrew to the southeast, they began to reorganize their team, and they also sent people to the woods to cut down trees and prepare to set up camp.

Whether it was the Chu army of Surabaya County or the Chu army of Huiji County that went south, they only carried grain, grass, tents and other things when they marched, but did not carry the timber necessary for building camps, because there was no shortage of forests in these years, and it was very convenient for the army to obtain timber everywhere they went.

The southeast direction and the northwest direction where the battle was being fought were blocked by a county seat, and Xiang Zhu didn't hear the horn, but he thought it was Lu Zhejun in the center of the city who was blowing the horn, and didn't think much about it. He is still most concerned about the Lu Zhe army in the center of the city, and he is afraid that the Lu Zhe army will attack when the city's own troops withdraw to rest.

Mei Kai really wanted to take advantage of the retreat of the Chu army to catch up and fight. It's a pity that the casualties of the troops in Danyang City are too heavy, and it is basically a situation where the defense is more than enough to fight, and it is the most important thing for them to quickly repair the defense line and wait for the next hard battle.

A burst of horns came from the northwest direction, and Su Lie immediately jumped up and laughed: "It's coming!" ”

The Chu army will not use the horn as a signal to convey military orders, and the sound of the horn is simply the band of Lu Zhejun's charge horn, and they will not misjudge like Xiang Zhu.

"The horn of the charge," Mei Kai was a little worried: "There is a Chu army intercepting over there." ”

The lieutenant groaned for a while: "I and Lie led the cavalry to meet it." ”

Mei Li naturally agreed, he said "be careful", and then went about his own business very simply.

Even if 30,000 reinforcements arrive. Danyang's Lu Zhe army only had less than 40,000 troops, and the Chu army's Xiang Zhu still had 40,000, and the Chu army intercepted outside the city did not know how many, and they still couldn't change the disadvantage of being outnumbered.

The cavalry still had 1,700 combat strength, and although they were tired, they also knew that it was imperative to go out to meet them, and after a little formation, they drove the horses out of the camp with the sound of horses' hooves.

The Chu army spies hiding in the shadows saw this movement, how could there be a reason not to report it? Xiang Zhu learned that Lu Zhe's army in the center of the city was dispatched again, and he also knew the news that the enemy and our armies were fighting in the northwest of Danyang.

"Didn't you ask Ying'er to avoid fighting with Lu Zhe's follow-up troops and come over directly to rendezvous? How could ...... "How did Xiang Zhu know that the people sent out didn't find Xiang Ying's army at all?" He frowned deeply: "Most of the soldiers here have run away, and the troops who can be assembled to meet can only take out three thousand ......."

It is difficult for 3,000 people to play a big role in such a big battle, and Xiang Zhu is not clear about the situation in the northwest direction. If the Chu army over there had an advantage, it would not lack these 3,000 people, and if the inferior 3,000 people went, it would not be of much use. Moreover, the army under his command is now unstable, and the 3,000 men in his hands are an important force to guard against Mei Kai's troops. Light yì transfer is not allowed.

"Someone!" Xiang Zhu called the herald: "Hold my general card and order Xiang Ying to lead the army to come and meet!" ”

"No!" The herald was called away.

It was already evening when the sun was setting, and in a quarter or two more quarters of an hour the night would fall completely, under this bloody twilight. The 30,000 supported Lu Zhejun chased the fleeing Chu army for a while, and the corpses of the dead on the battlefield fell from the northwest all the way to the edge of Danyang City, and there were not a few Chu soldiers who knelt on the ground and begged to surrender when they saw that they could not escape.

A chase. Lu Zhejun, who came from the northwest, has been chasing the Chu army, and they are about to complete the combat goal of occupying the northwest of Danyang, and the rest of the captains are leading the army to continue to pursue and kill the Chu soldiers, but He Yi is personally leading people to the city.

Not far after He Yi entered the county seat, there was a roaring sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and he was just about to order the troops to prepare for battle, when Su Lie's loud voice was already shouting.

"It's General Su!"

"It's our cavalry!"

Su Lie also saw He Yi's figure, and he was asking from afar: "He Yi, how is the battle going?" ”

He Yi saw Su Lie's appearance with a cloak and a disheveled hair, and he was surprised how Su Lie could be so wolf, and replied loudly: "Our army is chasing and killing the Chu soldiers who are scattered and fleeing!" ”

"Hahaha!" Su Lie smiled heroically: "Good job! ”

Su Lie should be happy, and appointing He Yi to lead the army to defeat the Chu army shows that he is not wrong. Mei Kai and Gongwei didn't say it explicitly before, but Su Lie couldn't see what the two meant, so that he felt a little empty in his heart, and he was extremely faceless. Now that He Yi has met the Chu army and won the battle, he feels very face-saving.

The lieutenant on the side also glanced at He Yi a few more times, He Yi looked like he was in his twenties, and his appearance was not heroic and majestic, but he had a bit of a public face. Now, Gongwei kept this public face in his heart, and he won only because He Yi could fight.

"Lie, you and He Junhou go back to Mei Hong. I led the cavalry to the rear. "The rear of what the lieutenant said is the army of Hengshan County, not the 30,000 troops that have arrived under Danyang City.

Hengshan County was originally the headquarters of the communist lieutenant, and the communist lieutenant was the chief general of the southward reinforcements, although Su Lie became the main general later, Su Lie still felt that it was most appropriate for the communist lieutenant to go to the army, so he replied: "The main commander of the dispatch army will be you, and you should be in charge of the army!" ”

Their army has a name that is very in line with this era, that is, the "Dispatch Army", the full name is "Hengshan Department and Jiujiang Department Joint Dispatch Army to Huizhang County". Of course, Lu Zhe didn't like the word dispatch army, so the temporary name given to this army was "Two Counties United Army".

The battle between Lu Zhe's army and Xiang Ying's 40,000 Chu army from the northwest has come to an end, and all the prisoners who should catch up and kill have been caught, and those who can't catch up can't catch up.

After the lieutenant appeared with the cavalry, Captain Hai and the others quickly saw the flag, and Shu Dao naturally came to greet him.

"Su Lie, He Yi and others are there with Mei Kai. Hurry up and meet in the city! "The lieutenant is still the commander of this army, so he naturally has the right to order them.

Shu Dao greeted him: "Communist Commander," with a bright smile on his face, "The Chu army was chased and killed by us for a while, and the 40,000 Chu army broke up and fled." ”

"Huh?" Gongwei sounded like Shu Dao was all due to Shu Dao's victory, he didn't know Shu Dao and his person, and then he didn't know the war, so he only said with a smile: "Shu Patriarch works hard, and Wei will report to the Lord." ”

Shu Dao wanted this sentence, and his face smiled even happier.

This war is simply the collapse of the Chu army without a fight, how can anyone say that the credit is the heaviest? Captain Hai and the others didn't like it but didn't speak, although Shu Dao's language was very arrogant, but just now the soldiers under Shu Dao's command chased the most fiercely, and they did cut a lot of heads and captured a lot of Chu soldiers.

The lieutenant looked around at the soldiers of his own side who were gathering, most of the soldiers had their heads hanging from their waists, and the number of prisoners of war escorted was also in a team, it seemed that this battle was indeed a good fight.

More than 4,000 of the 40,000 Chu troops were killed on the spot, and 20,000 captured Chu soldiers also looked like they were captured, and most of the Chu soldiers who escaped ran away, and only more than 3,000 people were still by Xiang Ying's side. It can be said that this follow-up unit of Xiang Zhu was erased from the combat sequence before it played any role.

The battle situation has not yet been reported and summarized, they naturally don't know what it means for the 40,000 Chu troops to be wiped out, the mentality of the lieutenant is still the stage when the battle situation is unfavorable to their side, Mei Kai, Su Lie, etc. don't know that the battle situation has changed again, and Xiang Zhu on the other side saw that Xiang Ying only brought more than 3,000 people over, and a mouthful of blood spurted out in an instant.

The current Xiang Ying doesn't seem to have recovered from the fiasco, and he looks like he can't give up. When he saw his father spurting blood, he was stunned for a moment before he knelt down with a pale face, trembling and saying, "The child has failed his father!" ”

Xiang Zhu didn't wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, he asked about the battle with a disgraced face, and sighed after listening: "Now it has become our army's strength at a disadvantage." ”

In less than a day, the 120,000-strong army came violently, not counting the soldiers who had fled, and there were less than 20,000 troops left in the hands of Xiang Zhu's father and son, which was really unexpected.

"There is no point in fighting again." Xiang Zhu knew too well how difficult it was to get the fleeing soldiers back together, he vomited a mouthful of blood again, and his expression was desolate: "Withdraw the troops overnight." ”

There is no need to fight any more at this point, only to retreat before Lu Zhejun reacts, otherwise even the last 20,000 people will not be able to be saved, and they may also be trapped in Danyang.

There is a characteristic of the family power, if the children of the family are defeated, the responsibility will be shifted to those who are not the children of the family, so Wang Wu and Ben He must be unlucky, but Xiang Zhu searched for a long time but did not find the two.

The generals and colonels of Lu Zhejun on the other side have not yet realized that the victory is back to their side, they build a defensive line of defense, and those who should contact should be contacted, but they just ordered people to keep an eye on the movements of the Chu army where Xiang Zhu is located.
