@@The collapse of the front naturally began with the collapse of Murong Zhengyan’s troops.

However, what really caused the overall reaction from a technical point of view was the simultaneous collapse of the two symmetrically arranged troops Wang Yu and Feng Duan. Because the collapse of these two troops caused the official army to lose their left and right wing support points on the battle line at the same time, causing the official army to lose support points on the left and right wings at the same time.

The army's Crane Wing Formation was broken into three sections, basically losing its integrity.

At this time, the army's follow-up formations had already formed, and they had even tried to deploy follow-up troops under command to try to outflank them.

At this point, fate is hopeless.

Even if Xue Changxiong maintained his sanity and final dignity with Murong Zhengyan's encouragement, he could only order the entire army to withdraw to the camp before being surrounded by army troops... but in the hope that the battle would not last long and most of the troops would

They all still have generals and discipline in order to rely on the camps to buy time and save as many troops as possible.

However, even Xue Changxiong knows that this kind of thing can only be wishful thinking. Trying is better than nothing.

After all, when the army is defeated, life or death depends on fate.

Sure enough, before the order was issued, it had not spread to all parts of the battlefield. The collapse starting from the near ends of the two wings had already triggered a chain reaction. After the defeat, there were no officers and soldiers anymore, they could only scramble to be the first, which caused the chaos to spread rapidly.

.

What made Xue Changxiong powerless was that even his own troops, his own sons, Xue Wancheng and Xue Wanquan on the left and right sides could not restrain the troops... The general was immediately there and saw with his own eyes that his youngest son Xue Wanquan was trying to lead a group of troops.

They tried to rectify the defeated army head-on, but before they could reach the front, they were overturned by the defeated troops, and the guards turned around and joined in the rout.

At the critical moment, General Manager Xue regained his true energy. The military formation was no longer there, but the sun reappeared. With an order, and the left and right wings were Xue Changxiong's headquarters, it worked after all, and he was regarded as a member of the Chinese Army.

The position stabilized the situation for a while, and then slowly retreated.

However, there is still a grandmaster here in the Chinese Army, but other places do not have this treatment.

In just two quarters of an hour, regardless of whether they heard Xue Changxiong's order to retreat, the army abandoned the entire front. Ten lieutenant generals and their troops, plus a few state and county reinforcements, totaling more than 20,000 people, chose to go north.

Returned to camp, and the formation was almost completely disorganized.

It can be seen that it is not just Murong Zhengyan who has an accurate judgment on the battle situation.

Unlike the senior officers and soldiers who had anticipated the outcome of the battle before the war, the leaders of the military battalions seemed to lack this kind of high-level vision. They did not expect that victory would come so quickly, especially most of the fifteen battalions at the rear.

When they entered the battle, they already discovered that the front army was victorious and the officers and soldiers retreated across the board. Under the eagerness to make a contribution, the dozen or so battalion heads who had just received the order to spread their wings actually lost order and rushed forward one after another.

Only a few scattered battalion leaders still followed the military orders and tried to continue to outflank them, but they were quickly led by other battalion leaders and chose to go to the front to seek military exploits.

Zhang Xing was riding on a yellow horse. Looking at the situation before and after, he saw that there were crowds of soldiers everywhere. Whether they were the official army or his own rear army, they were all out of order and somewhat powerless.

Obviously, a single victory cannot make this "big army" that has not yet been reorganized complete the so-called qualitative change. At least this battle is not enough. He has no doubt that if the former army failed to hold on and was defeated, then according to this

If it shows, the army is likely to suffer a disastrous defeat.

Then he became the laughingstock of the world.

"Zhang Longtou, the rear army can't be controlled now, and there is no need to control it. The victory has been won, so just push forward." Unexpectedly, it was Chen Bin who came to persuade him seriously. "The front army pressed the official troops into the camp.

, even if Xue Changxiong calls another grandmaster, it will be useless!"

Zhang Xing nodded without comment.

"You have to keep an eye on Xue Changxiong to prevent him from getting angry." Bai Yousi also reminded seriously.

"How many Chengdan should be divided?" Zhang Xing asked immediately.

"Three!"

"Which two are going with you?" Zhang Xing did not discuss the necessity of Bai Yousi himself.

"It doesn't matter, but there is one person who has to see what you want." Bai Yousi looked at his senior brother and pointed out the key. "Senior Brother Wu is the key..."

Zhang Xing

After waking up, he asked in surprise: "Do you think you can keep Xue Changxiong?"

"Of course I can't guarantee it." Bai Yousi answered frankly. He just pulled out the hairpin on the battlefield, simply took out a piece of cloth and tied it hastily. "But if Senior Brother Wu and I, according to Xue Changxiong's attack,

I’m two or three points sure about the reaction!”

Two or three points of certainty to retain a master! A Hebei marching general manager!

"Then why not give it a try!" Chen Bin couldn't help but interrupt.

Wu Jingfeng also cheered up: "That's right! Zhang Longtou, don't miss the opportunity!"

Xiong Bonan also cheered up a little, but Xu Shiren frowned slightly.

Zhang Xing glanced at these four Chengdan masters, but suddenly asked Qian Tang, who had just returned from delivering orders to the rear: "What does Chief Qian think?"

Qian Tang was startled for a moment, as if he didn't expect that this matter would be asked to him, but in just a moment, he came to his senses and immediately replied with a straight face: "I don't think so!"

"Why?" Zhang Xing kept asking in the middle of the battlefield.

"Because after this battle, the Hejian Camp has no ability to interfere with the situation south of Qingzhang River." Qian Tang only answered seriously under Chen Bin's surprised eyes. The gang could take it when they wanted, Wu

Regardless of whether it is Yang County or Qinghe County, even if it takes action and resists, it has nothing to do with the Hejian camp and Xue Changxiong. As for whether to try to keep Xue Changxiong, it only depends on whether the gang will attack Zhangshui in the short term.

The northern counties are related... But for me, these twenty-five battalions are not enough to swallow up the ten counties in the heart of Hebei. In this case, it is better to let Xue Changxiong, whose prestige has plummeted and his troops have suffered heavy losses, continue to act as a grand master.

Guarding the counties around Hejian for the gang to avoid being swallowed up by the Youzhou camp will in turn become the capital for some people in Youzhou to break the balance of power."

Halfway through listening, Xiong Bonan and Xu Shiren already nodded, while Wu Jingfeng was no longer excited.

After the other party finished speaking, Zhang Xing also nodded: "What Chief Qian said is absolutely true."

With that said, Zhang Dalong looked at Chen Bin again and explained seriously: "When we occupy the four counties south of Qingzhang River, have a base in Hebei, and join forces in the east, we can tidy up a little and gather talents, what?

Even the master is not afraid. If you can hit him once, you can hit him a second time."

"What Zhang Longtou said is absolutely true." Chen Bin immediately stopped insisting. Instead, regardless of the physical pain he suffered in the previous military formation, he respectfully said yes.

In fact, he just remembered that this Zhang Sanlang seemed to have the nickname of Little Zhang Shizhao, and it is said that the elder Zhang Shizhao died at the hands of the other party.

"I remember Chief Chen said that Gao Zhan went to the side division, and there are still two Cheng Dan in the bandit camp." Of course Zhang Xing didn't know what Chen Bin was thinking, so he just continued to ask. In addition to Murong Zhengyan, there was another

Is it Dou Pi? Where is he?"

Chen Bin cheered up, looked around, and immediately pointed to one place: "Opposite the Dengzhou Army!"

"In this battle, one hundred percent of the pills must be killed to set the record straight." Zhang Xing then looked at Wu Jingfeng. "Thank you for Wu Dalang's trip and hold this person down. I will send a few pill-condensing reinforcements in due course and stay together.

This person! As for King Xiongtian and Chief Xu, they will follow Sanniang to pursue Xue Changxiong for surveillance and persecution!"

The four Chengdans each took their orders and left.

As soon as the people left, Zhang Xing, Chen Bin, Qian Tang, and Jia Runshi slowly moved forward, raising the flag and marching. At the same time, Shang Huaien's tribe to the west, Dou Lide's tribe to the east, and Dan Tonghai behind him.

The troops, Zhang Xing's headquarters led by Wang Xiongdan in the front, and Jia Yue's troops all gradually moved closer in accordance with military orders.

It turned out that Zhang Dalongtou imitated his opponent Xue Changxiong's situation of calm and retreating in the face of danger, and imitated the opponent's small-scale order. In the end, he controlled and mobilized a heavy army group, and then pursued Feng Duanbu.

Slowly approaching the enemy camp in front. The reason for this is that they are worried that these soldiers and horses lack experience in large-scale combat and will be out of order like the ones behind them. Although they retreat, there are actually some officers and soldiers who have maintained their organization.

The camp is blocking it, so I want to personally ensure that the camp can be breached.

However, the army moved northward and approached the camp. Before it could reach the camp, or in other words, when the first wave of defeated soldiers from the Hejian camp were about to arrive at the camp, a new situation suddenly emerged.

Let us also say that in the official camp, due to the defeat at the front, many clever civilians and auxiliary military managers

Naturally, they chose to take the opportunity to escape, but because of the large number and the rapid defeat of the army, more people chose to cower and wait.

Some people even didn't know that the army ahead had been defeated.

After all, even the position next to the camp to watch the battle was in high demand before.

In one of the camps, amid the chaos and seeing the defeat approaching, a group of hundreds of civilians came upstream and brought scattered weapons and other military items they had seized from the camp.

Around the door.

As he approached, a man wearing a turban but wearing an official uniform was nervous. He turned to look at a strong black-faced man beside him: "Liu Heizi, is this okay?"

"Of course it can be done!" The man held a knife in one hand and a wooden shield in the other. He waved his hand immediately after hearing the words, and answered almost without hesitation. "I, Liu Heiguan, have traveled many times in the eastern border of Hebei. When have I ever deceived anyone?

Liu Xiancheng, you are still considered my family! Why don’t you believe me?”

"It's not that I don't believe you, it's that you just surrendered two days ago. After you arrived, you only said that you really hated the Clan's rules. But today, you suddenly said that you came to surrender under the orders of your leader and leader Dou."

The man responded anxiously. "But if you want to pretend to surrender, how come you are not prepared at all and just come to look for me on the spur of the moment and ask me to find a civilian husband from this county?"

At this point, the leaders of the surrounding people became more and more hesitant.

And Liu Heiguan was helpless. When he asked Dou Lide to pretend to surrender two days ago, how did he know that the decisive battle would happen today? How could he win so quickly? Would he still come if he knew about it?

Only now, how can we explain it carefully?

At this thought, Liu Heiguan did not hesitate, and suddenly abandoned the wooden shield in his hand, revealing the waist knife that had been filled with weak water zhenqi through the wooden shield. Then, with both hands, he slashed towards the man who had been chattering. Unexpectedly,

It was a knife that cut the owl's head, and the result was blood splattering in five steps. The others were shocked and stunned.

"I was personally appointed by Zhang Dalongtou!" Liu Heigang struck out with his sword. He immediately turned around and yelled at the civilians with the sword raised. The army is in front. It's your luck that you people follow me, otherwise you will be killed.

Result! Now listen to my order, don’t move or speak, and when I say kill, you will all beat the drums and trumpets and shout for kill, won’t you?”

The peasants each lost their voices, but they became honest.

And that moment didn't take long at all. In a moment, the defeated army in front was almost in front of the camp gate. At this time, there were still civilians behind many fences who had been watching the battle. They didn't know how to escape at this time. Naturally, those defeated soldiers didn't pay attention to it.

A conspicuous group of people came straight to the camp gate and made way for the civilians in front of them.
