At the end of the Sui Dynasty

Chapter 480
The bamboo forest behind the Sui army camp is a natural barrier. Without this bamboo forest, the navy attacking from the river would definitely pose a serious threat to the Sui army camp. In the bamboo forest, apart from the first wharf opened up by the Sui army, there was nowhere to dock. Therefore, the naval forces sent by Dou Jiande and Gao Shida were of little use. win or lose.

The battle became fierce from the very beginning. Wang Baxu and Li Mi's troops attacked with all their strength regardless of the cost, while Dou Jiande and Gao Shida, who had been playing more conservatively, also began to exert their strength. Obviously, the four of them had reached a consensus and had to complete their efforts It's time for a battle, after all, it has been dragged on for so many days, a soldier is more expensive than a long time, and a long delay is easy to change!
Naturally, the pressure on the camp of the Sui army also increased greatly, the casualties continued to increase, and the fortifications outside the camp were also cleared one after another. Li Mi's cavalry jumped over the trench for the first time. It means that the camp of the Sui army is about to be broken through.

"Kill!" Li Mi, wearing battle armor, drew out his long sword and pointed, and even led a cavalry charge in person, followed by two fierce generals, Wang Bodang and Cai Jiande.

Gao Bufan had long been prepared for the battle, and seeing Li Mi go into battle in person, he raised his sword eyebrows, and the long knife in his hand came out of its sheath, clamping the horse's belly, the big green horse let out a long howl, turned into a cloud of green smoke and flew out.

"Kill!" Wu Daqing and Cui Zijian roared sharply, leading a thousand riders and roaring out closely behind Gao Bufan.

The general is not afraid of death, and the soldier does not hesitate to die! ! !
The sound of horseshoes roared, the sky was full of sand and dust, and the two cavalrymen met each other and collided fiercely, like two raging waves, splashing flesh and blood all over the sky.

Gao Bufan slashed out with a single slash, the brilliance of the saber was as bright as a nine-day rainbow, Li Mi's horizontal saber blocked the block, there was a loud bang, and sparks flew everywhere.

Li Mi felt a huge force pressing down like mountains and seas, his wrist felt a sharp pain, and the long sword almost fell from his hand, he couldn't help being shocked, although he expected that the inner strength of Ding Gao Bufan would be very strong, but he didn't expect it to be so strong To this extent, when he and Gao Bufan met in Liming Cangcheng for the first time, they deliberately used the opportunity of a toast to secretly test Gao Bufan's skills. In terms of internal strength, there is obviously not much difference between the two.

Therefore, Li Mi has always been preconceived, thinking that his martial arts and Gao Bufan are only in the middle, even if he is a little stronger, he will not be much stronger, but he does not know that more than two years have passed, and Gao Bufan's cultivation has progressed rapidly, and it is no longer what it used to be. Now, he has entered the ranks of top masters, and Li Mi can only count as one foot into the ranks of top masters.

As the saying goes, those who walk a hundred miles are half to ninety, and the same is true in martial arts. The higher you go, the more difficult it is. The seemingly half-step gap is actually a huge gap in strength.

Li Mi hadn't slowed down yet, Gao Bufan had already slashed for the second time, so he had to bite the bullet and raise his sword to block, Dang Dang, Li Mi blocked three times in a row, the tiger's mouth was shattered, and the long sword was stained with blood, he couldn't help feeling terrified Han, staggered his horse and dodged.

Cai Jiande and Wang Bodang saw that something was going wrong, they hurriedly attacked from left to right, and only then temporarily broke the siege for Li Mi.

brush……

Gao Bufan slashed at Cai Jiande as fast as lightning, and the latter swung his knife to meet him, but with a loud bang, the knife flew out of his hand in response, and Gao Bufan's second knife had already wiped his neck.

Cai Jiande was scared out of his wits. Before this guy had vowed to cut off Gao Bufan's head, but he was about to give it away after only two moves. However, this guy deserved his life because Uncle Wang stretched out his foot and kicked Gao Bufan suddenly. Kicking him off the horse from the back, he escaped the fatal blow, but the shoulder was still hit by the blade, and even a piece of flesh was cut off on the spot.

In this way, the horses of the two sides passed by in dislocation, and Gao Bufan had no time to turn back to make up the sword, because the enemy cavalry was rushing towards him, and he had to swing his sword to kill.

The cavalry from the two sides fought fiercely at one point, while Wang Xuba, Gao Shida, and Dou Jiande also attacked from the other three sides, and they had already crossed the trench, spreading the flames of war to the edge of the Sui army's camp.

At this moment, there was an even louder sound of horseshoes, and a yellow dust billowed in the distance. It was a cavalry, and the battle flag of Yingyang Mansion fluttered high in the wind, with a murderous aura!
"Yingji Lang general Yuchi Jingde is here!"

"Duan Zecheng, captain of Zuo Yiwei, is here!"

Two thousand cavalry rushed forward like lightning, and rushed straight to the two troops of Li Mi and Wang Xuba who were in front of them.

The cavalry under Li Mi's command was fighting fiercely with the cavalry led by Gao Bufan, while Wang Xuba's team was also attacking the camp of the Sui army. The two cavalrymen who were killed suddenly burst through the back door. It felt so sour , All of a sudden chaos.

"General Yuchi is here to help, brothers, kill!" The Sui army in the battalion burst into cheers, their morale was like a rainbow, and they took the initiative to rush out of the camp and launched a wave of counterattack.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Dou Jiande hurriedly ordered to retreat while fighting, and called back the sailors on the river. Donghai Gong Gao Shida was not stupid. Seeing the reversal of the situation, he also hurriedly retreated to protect himself. With the sound of pounding, a group of men and horses suddenly rushed out.

"Li Jing, the Prime Minister of Shanggu County, is here, the bandits will stop!" Li Jing shouted, pointing at the flag, three or seven infantry rushed forward.

Gao Shida turned pale with fright, he was finished, and was surrounded by counterattacks! ! !
Although Li Jing's army was small in number, its combat power was almost overwhelming that of Gao Shida's bandit soldiers Jiutiaojie. Coupled with the sudden attack, under the attack from both front and back, Gao Shida's troops soon collapsed and became a mess.

Gao Shida was so frightened that he jumped on a bamboo raft, and using a knife as an oar, he paddled towards the opposite bank in embarrassment. Seeing this, the soldiers under his command also jumped on the bamboo raft to escape for their lives, but the bamboo raft was limited after all. By the river, under the scrambling and trampling of each other, the bamboo raft capsized, and hundreds of people fell into the water and were drowned. A small number of people who were really good at swimming managed to swim across the other bank and saved their lives!
The people under Li Jing's command didn't say a word, and they went forward to cover up the killing in a battle formation, blood flowed like rivers, and corpses were strewn all over the ground.

Gao Shida fled to the other bank and looked back, he felt cold at once, desolate, there are only 100 people behind his buttocks, and those who stayed on the other bank either jumped into the river to escape, or were strangled, and the river was full of people, or remained motionless Floating on the ground, either struggling or trying to swim to this side, they were taken away by the river as they swam, and only a few people managed to get ashore.

Gao Shida couldn't help but feel sad. This time he led 3000 people to come here, but he didn't get a single benefit, but almost wiped out the whole army. This is not an ordinary reminder.

"Donghai Lord, Da Sima has retreated upstream, and the loss does not seem to be too great." At this time, a drowned soldier beside him reminded.

Gao Shida was refreshed when he heard the words. Fortunately, he didn't lose his money, so he hurriedly said, "Let's go, hurry up and catch up with Da Sima."

Ever since, Gao Shida led more than a hundred remnant soldiers to rush upstream, trying to join Dou Jiande.

Li Mi is very miserable now, he was attacked by two cavalrymen, Yuchi Jingde and Gao Bufan, and suffered heavy casualties!
"Pu Shangong, the situation is over, retreat quickly!" Ma Xingkong rode his horse up to Li Mi and shouted.

Li Mi also knew that if he didn't leave again, he was afraid that he would have to hand over his old life here, so he couldn't help but sighed up to the sky, and led the cavalry to flee westward.

"Li Mi is defeated, Li Mi has fled!" The Sui army cheered earth-shatteringly.

Wang Xuba, who was fighting until he was in the dark, was startled, looked around, and found that Li Mi's flag was indeed heading westward in a hurry, while Dou Jiande's flag in the upper reaches was only a black spot, and Gao Shida's flag was nowhere to be seen. , Unknowingly, there was a sense of desolation in my heart, full of grief and indignation: "Damn, you don't even say hello when you run, these bastards!"

Thinking back to a few months ago, how glorious he was, Wang Xuba, he had conquered several counties, had over [-] soldiers under his command, and proclaimed himself King Mantian, but he returned to his original form in just a few months.

It was just seeing him building a tall building, seeing his building collapse, and seeing the illusion, after all, it was nothing!

"Your Majesty, retreat, if you don't leave, it will be too late!" A soldier hurriedly reminded.

Wang Xubahuan glanced at the infantry and cavalry of the Sui Army who were approaching from all around, and said bitterly: "It's too late, you don't have to worry about me, just run for your life!"

"Your Majesty, if you keep the green hills, don't worry about running out of firewood. Don't give up." The soldiers said anxiously.

Wang Xuba was startled, and he settled down and said: "That's right, if you keep the green hills, you don't have to worry about running out of firewood. Since I, Wang Xuba, can pull 100,000 people's horses, next time I can pull up a million horses, brother." Ladies, if you want to live, I will attack you!"

Wang Xuba regained his fighting spirit. With a wave of his sword, he led the remnant soldiers to Li Jing's troops downstream. Obviously, he wanted to squeeze the persimmons, because Li Jing's troops had the smallest number of soldiers, and they were all infantry. They looked easy to bully!

However, as soon as he touched it, Wang Xuba knew that he had hit the iron plate, and it was miserable.

Wang Xuba's remnant army not only failed to shake Li Jing's army formation, but was also retreated steadily after being killed. At this time, Zecheng's cavalry charged on the flanks again, and the Sui army in the camp also came over.

Soon, Wang Xuba's remnant soldiers were wrapped in dumplings. In the end, those who died died, those who jumped into the river, and those who surrendered surrendered!

However, Wang Xuba himself was very strong, and he rushed to kill more than a dozen people and was shot twice before being stabbed to death by Sui soldiers.

The Mantian King who dominated Hejian County for a while is over!
Duan Zecheng snatched Wang Xuba's head, and he was so excited that he looked up to the sky and laughed. He wanted to hold the head and run to Yuchi Jingde for a few words, but the latter had already gone after Li Mi and was not here at all, so he had no choice but to Give it up for now.

Li Jing gathered his soldiers and horses, keeping a low profile as always, but a low profile is a low key, and he is not polite about the spoils that belonged to him. All pockets are safe, and a lot of money is made in a muffled voice.

Li Jing himself doesn't love money, but his brothers and sisters who are not under his command can't be treated badly. How can he go back empty-handed after traveling all the way?
