Chapter 57
Seeing this formation, Night Breeze didn't pay much attention, but shouted at the enemy formation with internal force: "Old Zhu, the old friend is here, won't you come out to meet him?
"Hmph, the military adviser said, don't use your mouth to communicate with you, just use your weapon. You stole the kit and figured it out, right? So don't waste your energy trying to provoke me." Zhu Wushi just didn't come out.
Night Breeze didn't take it seriously at all, and continued to shout: "I'm here to return your tips, don't you want to know what's written in the last two tips?"
Zhu ignored it, and the army began to approach Night Breeze, and it really followed Liu Bowen's words thoroughly.
Zhu ignored it, and Night Breeze wanted to show him too, so he took a bow and arrow, hung the kit on it, and hung a paper signed by Zhu Wushi.
Whoosh!
The arrow shot to the vicinity of Zhu Wushi, and then Zhu Wushi caught it with the method of absorbing energy. When he found out that it was indeed Liu Bowen's kit, Zhu Wushi finally opened it.
Because Night Breeze already knew the content, it would be bad if he didn't know.
Here, Night Breeze, who watched this scene with his improved eyesight, laughed unscrupulously.
Zhu Wushi saw that it was indeed Liu Bowen's words, so he formally read the content above.
"Tip three, if you are unlucky enough to take the worst step, I predict that there will be a thousand or more cavalry around King Qi. Come back with peace of mind. Not only will Night Breeze not kill you, but he will prepare an escape route for you." .
Because according to Night Breeze's previous performance, it's not nice to say it, I hope King Qi doesn't mind, your existence does not pose any threat to Da Sui, but helps, or in other words, helps Night Breeze himself. "
Every time Zhu ignored a word, his face became ugly.
What does it mean that he does not pose any threat to Tai Sui? On the contrary, he is helpful?
Are you really that bad at what you're saying?
No one would admit that they are incompetent, and Zhu Wushi is the same.
Immediately, he saw that the ball of paper was crushed into fly ash in his hands.
"Liu Bowen! You old man, you predicted the king's defeat so early, and finally insulted me, did you think of it and pissed me off?!" Zhu ignored him and growled.
This is the consequence of opening the kit early. Before that moment, Zhu Wushou couldn't understand his feelings in that state.
Looking at it now, Zhu ignored only full of disgust for Liu Bowen.
"All sprint, take Ye Fenger for me, I want to show that old man Liu Bowen how I won
Zhu ignored a loud shout, and the army accelerated towards Night Breeze. "
The cavalry approached Night Breeze first.
"Let's go! Zhu Wushi is crazy, avoid his edge!" Ye Feng said, and ran away with his soldiers, but he was smiling after turning around.
Night Breeze ran with all his strength at first, and Zhu Wushi also went all out to let the cavalry chase after him, but after chasing for a while, the distance between the cavalry and the infantry became farther, Zhu Wushi slowed down.
Just a few thousand cavalry, if there is an ambush ahead, he will be unable to resist.
Zhu Wushi doesn't know how to use soldiers, but he is not stupid.
The road ahead is flat, and there is no favorable terrain to take advantage of. He can chase with confidence, but only the whole army can chase, and the cavalry cannot be left alone.
Watching Zhu Wushi slow down, Night Breeze also slowed down.
When Zhu Wushi was about to catch up, Night Breeze quickened his pace.
The two chased after each other for a whole morning, and finally arrived at the bank of Lijiao River.
Night Breeze's cavalry turned their horses around on the other side of the river and stopped running.
Zhu Wu ignored that there was no dangerous terrain to use, and he was relieved to let the cavalry catch up.
To Zhu Wushi's surprise, Night Breeze didn't run away at all. It turned out that the cavalry met Zhu Wushi's cavalry and started fighting.
Night Breeze's cavalry were well-trained sect disciples, and it would definitely be Zhu Wushi's cavalry who suffered in this fight.
But Zhu Wushi was not angry at all, on the contrary, he was happy, and quickly let the infantry cross the river and press them up.
Watching the infantry cross the river, Night Breeze smiled.
While fighting with the cavalry, he roughly calculated the number of Zhu ignoring the army to cross the river based on the formation configuration.
At the same time, the cavalry led by Night Breeze were also fighting and retreating. When Zhu ignored the army of more than 80,000 people, Night Breeze immediately released a rattle arrow.
The rattle arrow rose high into the sky and then exploded, and the light spot could be seen from a distance.
Seeing this signal, the soldiers who had been preparing for the Lijiao dam hastily opened the water gate, and suddenly the water rushed out rumblingly and flowed into the Lijiao River.
Zhu Wushi's army was still crossing the river. When the number reached 90,000, everyone heard the sound of rushing water.
what happened?
The soldiers could not help but look up.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the water rushing from far away.
"Those who have already crossed the river, run! Those who have not yet crossed the river, hurry back!" Zhu Wushi exclaimed.
After all, his cry was one step too late. The crowd covered by the river was about 20,000 people. When he called out, the soldiers activated on both sides, saving thousands of people.
A total of 16,000 people were washed away by the flood.
At the same time, Zhu Wushi's army was cut into two pieces. There were more than 80,000 people who had crossed the river and avoided the flood, and more than 90,000 cavalrymen.
Those who have not crossed the river and returned in time are less than 30,000.
The situation at this time was that the army that Zhu ignored could not get through this side, but came over there.
At this time, another sudden change occurred.
Behind the mountain on the opposite side, tens of thousands of troops rushed out and surrounded Zhu Wushi's army on the opposite side.
Zhu Wushi knew he had been tricked, and immediately looked at Night Breeze.
And Night Breeze looked at Luo Cheng, and said with a smile, "Take these cavalry and retreat to Baguan."
"Yes!" Luo Cheng responded and ran away with the cavalry.
But Zhu Wushi didn't go after him, because he knew that it was useless to catch up with the cavalry, and he couldn't beat Yefeng's soldiers without a large number advantage.
What he had to do now was to turn off the water as soon as possible so that the two armies could converge. At the same time, it was best to control Night Breeze.
But how could Night Breeze be so easy to control?
I saw him riding the fire unicorn, jumping continuously in the army, and flew to the riverside after a few leaps, and then leaped with the same lightness, and landed steadily on the opposite side, joining his army.
"Old Zhu, today I will show you what it means to look at the river and sigh!" Night Breeze smiled and joined the cavalry team on his side, and started massacring the Ming army.
Zhu ignored that the rear army now consisted of infantry plus 5,000 archers, for a total of about 28,000.
On Night Breeze's side, cavalry, archers, and infantry were fighting on a contract basis, and they also had a big advantage in numbers.
Moreover, there are many masters in the team, and they all launched contract operations. When they meet the enemy generals, they will be killed first, so that the opponent will enter a state of no command.
Zhu Wushi watched from the opposite side, watching Night Breeze's army massacre his army wantonly over there. The team that was supposed to be elite had nothing to resist, and the more they were killed, the less they were killed.
Their blood flowed into the river, staining the originally yellow river water with redness.
Looking at the river and sighing!
Zhu ignored it now.
Seeing his soldiers being slaughtered one by one, Zhu Wushi was heartbroken.
Today's mistake cost him more than 40,000 people in total.
Now the entire army is less than 100,000, and Yefeng's defense army is 100,000. If it weren't for knowing that 60,000 are from the inner city army, and the elites have suffered losses these days, then Zhu Wushi would be afraid of continuous attack. The courage of the city is gone.
But seeing Ye Feng and the others still facing each other, Zhu Wushi's mind was clear for a rare time.
On the way, the marching speed was not fast. The first reason was to prevent the Yefeng army from making trouble, and the supplies were too heavy.
Now Yefeng and the others were across the river, and the main supplies were also behind. Wu Qi who was attacking the city had few items, and there was only enough food for a few days. The Ming army seemed to be on the verge of a dead end.
But sometimes the dead end may be the way out, they can march quickly, and they can march to Baguan smoothly.
Moreover, the elite army of the Sui Dynasty is here, Baguan is now mainly the inner city army, and when the 90,000 army is overwhelmed, it is still possible to take Baguan.
This is a secret on Night Breeze's side.
Zhu ignored this thought, and immediately sent an order, "The whole army is advancing at full speed, let's set up camp at Baguan tonight, and take Baguan early tomorrow morning!"
With one order, the Ming army increased its speed as a whole.
By the time the battle ended on Night Breeze's side, it was already three hours later, and Zhu Wushi ran away early and disappeared.
Night Breeze counted the gains and losses, paid a price of more than 6,000 people, killed more than 44,000 Ming troops including flooding, seized 200,000 stones of grain and grass, 85 trebuchets, and a ladder One hundred frames, forty building vehicles, and several other various siege equipment.
