Chapter 913 Reinforcement arrives

Chapter 911: Reinforcements arrive

Looking at Jiang Song who was running towards him, a sneer flashed across the corner of Li Keyong's mouth, and he shouted: "Jiang Song, I have already issued a death order. Although your martial arts skills are high, I still want to see them. Can one person stop these thousands of soldiers?"

After uttering a harsh word, Li Keyong turned and ran away without turning his head. Obviously, he also knew that if he was approached, his fate would be the same as that of Liu Hongji and Lai Huer.

Jiang Song obviously didn't expect Li Ke to be so useless, and while speeding up the pursuit, he shouted: "Shameless bastard, stop going."

Li Ke didn't dare to stay longer, but rode his horse and fled faster.

Seeing this, Jiang Song snatched a long spear from a Liang army soldier along the way, and then used it as a javelin, throwing it at Li Ke. avoided.

Jiang Song didn't catch up with Li Keyong even after chasing out of the formation. In desperation, he had to go back the same way and try his best to prevent the Liang army from continuing to destroy. It must be possible to save a catapult.

Although the main general Li Keyong ran away, the remaining soldiers of the Liang army continued to carry out the tasks assigned by Li Keyong. Not enough to scare away these thousands of Liang troops.

Outside the formation, Yin Kaishan and Hou Junji, who were seriously injured, had already broken out of the encirclement.

When Li Shimin learned that Liu Hongji and Lai Hu'er were killed in battle, his face immediately turned as dark as the bottom of a pot.

Lai Huer was a general belonging to Yang Jian's lineage. Li Shimin could not care about his death, but Liu Hongji was Li Shimin's confidant and favorite general.

There are not many available generals under Li Shimin's command. As a result, in the contest with the coalition forces this time, Changsun Shunde, Qu Tutong, Zhang Gongjin, Gao Shilian, and Liu Hongji, these five generals with good abilities, must have been able to Those who shined on the battlefield died one after another because they encountered opponents who were much stronger than them.

At this point, Li Shimin was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood, and the fall of a large number of generals under his command also made him think of Zhao She who was captured alive.

"Zhao She is very capable. If he can persuade him to surrender, it will be a great help in the future."

Li Shimin's eyes could not help flashing a trace of longing, secretly said: "It seems that we must pay more attention to persuading surrender, and hope that we can capture more generals in the future."

The battle situation has progressed to this point, Li Shimin can't give much help in command, because he has used up all the moves he can use, and the only thing he can do now is to wait for Li Ke to use Zhang Xutuo to defeat the Longmen Formation.

Li Shimin didn't wait too long. Not long after Yin Kaishan and Hou Junji came back, he saw with his own eyes that the Longmen Formation, which blocked his [-]-strong army, collapsed bit by bit before his eyes.

Li Shimin immediately showed excitement: "Okay, the two generals Li and Zhang really did not disappoint the general."

As far as the current situation is concerned, the casualties of the Liang army are far higher than [-]. Even if the [-] coalition forces are wiped out, it will be a huge loss for the coalition forces.

But even knowing this, Li Shimin still looked excited, because if the allied forces' catapult convoy was not destroyed, Hulao Pass would not be able to hold on anymore.

In order to hold on to Hulao Pass for a longer period of time, even if more than half of the [-] troops leaving the city suffered casualties, as long as they could destroy the allied army's catapult convoy, it would still be worthwhile in Li Shimin's eyes.

"Report, the two generals Lu Bu and Hou Yi are back!"

Li Shimin's pupils shrank suddenly, and he said to himself, "That's bad."

Lu Bu and Hou Yi, who were blocking the enemy ahead, returned at this time, which meant that reinforcements from the coalition forces were about to arrive. If Li Shimin did not order a retreat at this time, the entire army might be in danger of being wiped out.

"In such a short period of time, Li Ke and they should not have completely destroyed the coalition's catapult convoy. If you order a retreat at this time, your previous efforts may be in vain. What should we do? What should we do?"

Li Shimin's brain is running fast, but no matter how he thinks, he can't think of a solution for both. Maybe there is no solution for both in this situation.

Just when Li Shimin was in a dilemma, Li Keyong came back alone.

Seeing this, Li Shimin frowned immediately, but before he went to inquire, the horn of charge sounded in the distance.

The reinforcements led by Li Cunxiao are already close at hand.

Allied soldiers trapped in the camp and the surviving Longmen, after hearing the horn representing the reinforcements, the morale of the whole army suddenly soared, looking forward to the stars and the moon is finally here.

Xue Rengui showed sincere joy, held up the big halberd and roared: "Brothers, the reinforcements have arrived, hold on!"

After the Longmen Formation completely collapsed, as long as the coalition soldiers were still alive, they had basically gathered at the catapult convoy. ,

Because if you don't gather your strength, you will definitely die faster when you are surrounded by the Liang army that is several times larger than yourself, and the total strength gathered is less than [-], and all the others died on the way here. .

Xue Rengui and other five generals led the remnant army of less than [-], guarding every intact catapult and continuing to fight with the Liang army.

Each general killed at least [-] soldiers. They tried their best to protect the catapult convoy, but it was still difficult to stop the nearly ten thousand Liang army, and more than half of the [-] catapults had been destroyed.

The news that the reinforcements had arrived made the exhausted soldiers burst out with the last bit of energy in their bodies.

The remaining soldiers fought desperately against the Liang army, guarding the remaining hundred catapults to the death, and this hysterical madness also frightened the Liang army.

Li Ke explained briefly that he gave the death order, and Li Shimin also basically understood the catapult team.

In general, although this mission was not completely completed, most of the catapult convoy was destroyed.

The threat from the catapults will be minimized, and that is enough, they can already retreat, if they don't retreat, the whole army will really be wiped out.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin said decisively: "Send the order, the whole army retreats to Hulao Pass."

Following Li Shimin's order, in an instant, the entire battlefield sounded the clarion call for the retreat of the Liang army.

Zhang Xutuo, who secretly hid among the soldiers for fear of being discovered by the enemy generals, finally relaxed after hearing the retreat horn.

It was too scary, Xue Rengui and other five generals on the opposite side were all stronger than him.

If he shows up, they will definitely be targeted by them, but how can ordinary soldiers stop such a fierce general?Do you want to leave the soldiers and run for your life like Li Keyong did?
Zhang Xutuo didn't want to lose this man, so he quietly hid among the soldiers before the other party found him, secretly commanding the army to destroy the catapult convoy.

Although Zhang Xutuo hid very secretly, he was still afraid of being discovered by the enemy generals. Now that the general Li Shimin ordered to retreat, he can finally retreat confidently.

"The whole army obeys the general's order, stops the attack and retreats immediately."
