The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1251 Initiating a Decisive Battle
Even He Lianhu had a good cultivation, but he was completely changed before he landed.

Thus ended a generation of famous generals with considerable reputation in the Gansu Military Region.

From the beginning to the end, even the shadows of She Tuoli and others were not seen.

The front row of the army that was about to enter the city suddenly became flustered.Some soldiers dismounted and ran forward, ignoring the thunderstorm.

Just looking at Helian Hu's scorched face and bloody flesh, he knew he was dead.

Everyone's face is extremely ugly.

Some people gritted their teeth tightly, their eyes were red, and they hated the four major armies.

The lieutenant general in the army held Helianhu's body and shouted one after another: "General Helian! General Helian!"

Only He Lianhu would not react in the slightest.

It took a long time until the panic in the army gradually subsided, but the grief and indignation spread throughout the army.

The deputy general of the army temporarily took the position of He Lianhu and was in charge of the whole army.After asking the soldiers to clean up the corpses inside and outside the city gate, he led the army towards the government office in the city.

The inside of the government office is also a horrible scene.

Later, these Gansu military officers and soldiers who had just arrived in Qingchuan County learned that the grain storage depot in the city had been filled with feces.

This made several generals in the army pale.

In a fit of rage, although he had the heart to lead his army out of the city to pursue the enemy troops who had already left the city, he was also powerless.

They rushed here on light cavalry, they were exhausted, and they really couldn't stand the toss anymore.

Even though there is great aggrievedness and anger in my heart, I can only suppress it forcibly at this time.

Only Qingqi rushed to the barracks to report.

She Tuoli led more than 2000 Qingqi, which naturally had already gone away.

Inside the camp of the Xixia Forbidden Army.

Under the orders of He Liancheng and Qu Rujian, the whole army packed up their luggage and was finally ready to set off for Qingchuan County.

But at this time, the four major armies in Longzhou City always wanted to leave the city.

A scout rushed to report to the Central Army of the Xixia Forbidden Army.

After He Liancheng, Qu Rujian and the others got the report, they were extremely helpless, so they had to lead their troops to stand in place and dare not go further north.

Of course they were worried that the four major military commanders would have iron cavalry attacking their rear.

If the army is suddenly attacked while marching, the consequences will be unpredictable.

However, when they set up a large formation on the spot, the soldiers of the four major military divisions showed no signs of attacking their large formation.

The formation of the two armies just looked at each other from a distance.

He Liancheng stood on the horse, frowning tightly, and whispered in his mouth: "What are the four major military commanders trying to do?"

Qu Rujian said quietly: "I want to delay our army here. General Helian, it seems that their trip to Qingchuan County is inevitable."

He Liancheng couldn't help frowning even deeper, "Most of our food and grass are in Qingchuan County..."

He even felt a little cold in his heart.

Xixia grain and grass are not rich at all, and the previous conquests of Lizhou East Road, Fengxiang Road and other places have made the country's grain and grass short.During their expedition, a lot of food and grass were hoarded in Qingchuan County. If it was destroyed or taken away, it would be difficult for the rear to raise enough food and grass in a short time.

Qu Rujian said: "If the food and grass are all lost, then our situation will be similar to that of the four major military commanders, or even worse. Their food and grass are probably more than ours."

He Liancheng narrowed his eyes slightly when he heard the words, and after a while, he said in a low tone: "The four major army commanders are forcing us to start a decisive battle with them..."

Qu Rujian nodded lightly, "Probably so. Let's see if Qingchuan County can hold on. If Qingchuan County loses, then we may really have to fight them."

The army stood in place, facing off against the officers and men of the four major armies.

Time passed slowly.

Close to evening.

The formation of the four major military divisions suddenly moved, but slowly retreated towards the city of Longzhou.

Seeing this scene, He Liancheng and Qu Rujian looked at each other with suspicion flashing across their eyes.

Immediately, regret flashed in He Liancheng's eyes, and he said solemnly: "I'm afraid Qingchuan County has been taken away..."

Qu Rujian also thought of this from the movements of the four major military commanders, and said: "Then shall we continue to guard Qingchuan, or shall we fight them decisively?"

He Liancheng gritted his teeth and said, "If we go back to defend Qingchuan like this, the emperor will blame us for being unfavorable in the battle! Instead of waiting for the imperial court's food and grass, I think it's better to have a decisive battle with them."

Qu Rujian was somewhat suspicious, "If a decisive battle is launched, the casualties will be immeasurable..."

He Liancheng said harshly: "As long as we can win, we Xixia will rule! We will always recruit enough soldiers in the future!"

Qu Rujian stopped talking.

Seeing the troops of the four major military divisions retreating slowly, He Liancheng once again solemnly said: "Then let's launch an attack here!"

Qu Rujian nodded solemnly, and ran towards the front of the formation.

He Liancheng raised the spear in his hand and roared in a low voice: "All soldiers of the army! Prepare to attack!"

The big banner holder next to him vigorously shakes the big banner in his hand.

After seeing the big movement, the Xixia Forbidden Army and the officers and men of the Gansu and Xiangqing Army Divisions were all moved by the clouds.

The army formation composed of tens of thousands of troops changed in a hurry.

Many light and heavy cavalry roared to applaud their horses and went to the army.

"kill!"

Then, following the roar of Helian City, the horns of the army resounded instantly.

"kill!"

"kill!"

The cavalry in the front row of the formation charged towards the formation of the four major armies.

The infantry phalanx followed closely behind.

In the vast wilderness, two large formations, both composed of more than one hundred thousand troops, were approaching at an extremely fast speed.

The officers and soldiers of the four major armies also responded quickly.

In fact, at the moment when the formation of the Forbidden Army changed, they had already realized that the Forbidden Army might launch an attack.

The decisive battle came just like that.

The battlefield is unpredictable, probably nothing more than that.

Facing the impact of the Xixia Forbidden Army, the four major armies obviously had no plans to retreat.

She Tuoli's surprise attack on Qingchuan County did have the intention of forcing the Imperial Army to fight them decisively.

Because even if they burned the grain and grass in Qingchuan County, it would be difficult for them to turn passive into active.If it is a long-term confrontation, their food and grass must not be able to support it.

Under the order of Wuge, Tuobawu, Sikongshe and others, cavalry from all major army divisions rushed out to meet the cavalry of the imperial army.

This can also be said to be a rare battle.

Regardless of who wins or loses, the situation in Xixia will undergo a huge change as a result.And probably in just a few years, Xixia might not be able to fight again.

It can be said that Li Xiushu entrusted all the future of Xixia to Zhao Dongting.

But soon, artillery fire surged across the field.

Among the infantry of the two armies, there were soldiers pushing the artillery carts and launching artillery attacks on the opponent's cavalry.

In an instant, all the cavalry formations on both sides were turned on their backs.

I don't know how many people stumbled.

But overall it doesn't look like a mess.

The infantry formation behind is still compact.

It's still raining.

Due to the loss of Qingchuan County, He Lianhu led the army to Qingchuan. At this time, the number of Xixia Imperial Army can only be said to be the same as that of the four major army divisions.

This is destined to be an extremely difficult battle.

Qu Rujian's Qi Tian army all joined the ranks of conquest.

In the past, these soldiers flying in the sky are now holding spears or sabers and rushing to kill in the army.

Amidst the sound of continuous artillery fire, the cavalry of the two armies collided quickly.

This has a great sense of sight of landslides and ground cracks.

The fighting seemed endless.

I don't know when, night fell suddenly.

it's foggy.

In the dense fog, the two armies were still fighting endlessly.

By this time, the two armies had almost completely melee.The armies of the two sides staggered each other.

It is difficult for the chief generals of both armies to coordinate the overall situation.

At this time, She Tuoli also arrived with more than 2000 Qingqi.

Seeing the battle between the two sides, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a murderous look emerged.Then he raised his sword and shouted, "Kill!"

He led more than 2000 cavalry to kill the crowd.

Even if he has a true martial arts cultivation, he is certainly not as eye-catching as he was in Qingchuan County in such a fight involving more than 20 troops.

There is a limit to the strength of the true martial arts, even if the Xixia imperial army is lined up and let him kill, it is not something he can kill.

Until the night was dark and deep.

The sound of fighting still didn't stop.

There are [-] miles to rush to Chengdu mansion.

Liu Zhuwen and Zhang Guangbao learned that the Xixia Forbidden Army and the four major military divisions had launched a decisive battle outside Longzhou City.

This surprised them all.

What was even more surprising was that it was the Imperial Army of Xixia who took the initiative to attack.

This is really no reason.

They put themselves in their shoes and thought that if they were the chief generals of the Forbidden Army, they would definitely choose to wait for work with plenty of food and grass!
