Ju Guuba's death in battle was a fatal blow to the morale of the Mang army, and it also boosted the morale of the Han army to its peak. The officers and soldiers of the Han army, led by Liu Xiu, killed the Mang army in front and retreated steadily.
Wang Yi and Wang Xun, who were watching the battle from behind, became anxious and ordered their soldiers to withstand the Han army's offensive no matter what.
But it was useless. The morale of the Han army had been completely aroused, and they could not stop it. The soldiers of the reckless army fighting in the front were killed in groups and fell to the ground.
Of the more than 400,000 reckless troops currently resisting the Han army in Dongying, there are only the 10,000 capital troops. There are also a large number of local county troops in Dongying, but not a single soldier has come to reinforce them.
Under the fierce offensive of the Han army soldiers, the capital army could not withstand it, and a large number of reckless soldiers retreated in groups.
Seeing this, the morale of the Han army officers became even higher. While rushing forward with all their strength, they shouted loudly: "The reckless thieves have been defeated, and the Han Dynasty should be prosperous——"
Liu Xiu took the lead and fought his way through the unruly army. Looking forward, he saw the carriages Wang Yi and Wang Xun were riding.
He didn't know Wang Yi or Wang Xun, but just by looking at their demeanor, he knew they were not ordinary reckless generals. Liu Xiu picked up a spear left by a reckless soldier from the ground, exerted all his strength, and aimed the spear at
Wang Yi on the carriage was thrown over.
Due to the long distance, Liu Xiu's spear did not hit Wang Yi, but flew past Wang Yi's head and hit the carriage board behind him with a thud.
Although it failed to hurt Wang Yi, it frightened Wang Yi badly. The latter touched the top of his head, looked back at the spear nailed to the carriage board, and then looked at the Han soldiers rushing over in front of him.
, his face was pale and he was sweating like rain.
He screamed: "Retreat! Retreat to the North Camp immediately!"
Wang Yi and Wang Xun did not dare to stay in the east camp. Under the protection of a group of guards, they took a carriage and headed straight for the north camp. As soon as Wang Yi and Wang Xun ran away, the soldiers of the Mang army below lost their backbone and were defeated.
Get faster too.
The weather, which had been cloudy since the morning, suddenly became clear at this time. The dark clouds in the sky dissipated, and the sky became clear and clear.
Liu Xiu looked up at the sky, feeling that the gloom in his heart for the past few days seemed to have disappeared with the dark clouds in the sky. He cheered up and shouted to the soldiers around him: "Kill Wang Yi! Kill Wang Xun!"
"
"Kill Wang Yi! Kill Wang Xun——" The surrounding Han soldiers shouted in unison.
Once the capital army led by Wang Xun of Wang Yi was defeated, how could the local county army stay and wait to die?
A large number of officers and soldiers of the county army were like headless flies, running away in all directions, and shouting as they ran: "Wang Yi, Wang Xun is dead, the Han army is coming -"
Even if some soldiers wanted to stay and fight, as soon as they heard the news that Wang Yi Wang Xun had died in battle, they could only give up resistance and run back quickly with the defeated soldiers.
The Mang army had too many troops and lacked a unified command. After this defeat, people crowded, pushed, collided with each other, and trampled on each other, causing countless casualties. The entire Dongying had become a mess.
At this time, the Han army at the top of Kunyang City also saw clearly the chaos in the Mang army's east camp. While Wang Feng and others were still stretching their necks to look around, a Han army spy ran out of the city and went to the bottom of the city wall.
He shouted loudly at Wang Feng above: "General Wang, Wang Yi, and Wang Xun were killed by our soldiers. Now the Mang Army's East Camp is defeated!"
When Wang Feng heard this, a rush of blood rushed to his forehead, making his eyes darken.
He swayed a few times, hurriedly held on to the arrow stack, stabilized his body, raised his head to look at the spies outside the city, and asked in a trembling voice: "You...what did you just say? Tell me again!"
The spy grinned widely and said with a choked voice: "General, Wang Yi, and Wang Xun are all dead. The Mang army has been defeated!"
"Is this true?"
"All the soldiers in the camp are shouting like this!"
Wang Feng took several deep breaths in succession, turned around, his eyes were shining brightly, his voice was trembling due to being too excited, and he said to his generals: "Everyone heard it, right? Wang Yi and Wang Xun are both dead.
, the reckless army has been defeated!"
This time, all the generals under him became energetic and said in unison: "Mr. Cheng Guo, give the order!"
Wang Feng finally stopped hesitating, and finally stopped watching from the sidelines. He shouted in a loud voice: "Instruct all our soldiers to go out to fight, and together with General Liu's troops, we will attack the East Camp of the Mang Army!"
"I will obey your orders!"
After confirming the news that the Mang army had been defeated, the Han army led by Wang Feng finally took the initiative to fight in Kunyang City. Wang Feng led the Han army to fight out of Kunyang, which was another fatal blow to the morale of the Mang army.
of blow.
The Mang army in the East Camp was in complete chaos, and this chaos spread rapidly throughout the entire Mang camp like a plague.
I heard that Wang Yi and Wang Xun had been killed by the Han army, and the Mang troops in the West Camp, North Camp and South Camp were also in chaos. Who among the Mang soldiers wanted to stay in the camp to wait for death, and they all came out of their tents one after another.
He ran out and fled in all directions.
It didn't even take half an hour. The huge camp of the reckless army was full of people, crowded with each other, and panicked people everywhere. While escaping for their lives, many soldiers were knocked over and fell to the ground, and the panicked crowd jumped from them.
I stepped on it and never stood up again.
When Wang Yi and Wang Xun led a group of guards and ran to Beiying, Beiying was already in chaos. Everywhere they looked, there were soldiers fleeing in all directions. There were people who were knocked down and trampled over everywhere.
In the camp, the sounds of collisions, shouts, and wailings came and went, forming one continuous sound.
This situation was something Wang Yi and Wang Xun had never seen before. They tried to stabilize the panicked soldiers below, but it was of no use. At this time, no one listened to them at all.
What made Wang Yi and Wang Xun even more angry was that many soldiers ran past the two of them, shouting as they ran: "Wang Yi, Wang Xun has been killed, brothers, run away!"
Wang Yi was so angry that his eyes were filled with stars, and he asked his entourage: "Where are the two generals Yan You and Chen Mao now?"
At this time, Wang Yi thought of the two veterans, Yan You and Chen Mao, and hoped that they could stand up and command the overall situation and turn the tide. But at this time, where were these two people around him?
Dou Rong, who was injured, took a few steps forward and said feebly: "General, General Yan and General Chen are unknown where they are now. They may have..."
He died in the rebellion. He didn't finish his words, but the meaning was already obvious.
When Wang Yi heard this, he slumped down on the carriage like a frustrated ball and murmured: "Now... what should we do now?"
Not to mention that Yan You and Chen Mao are not here, even if they are here, facing the situation in front of them, they still have no way to recover. As the saying goes, a defeat is like a mountain. Once the defeat is established, trying to reverse the situation is simply impossible.
Everything is difficult.
While they were talking, they saw a large group of reckless soldiers running up from behind. As they ran, the people shouted at the top of their lungs: "The Han army is coming! All the Han soldiers are coming! Run quickly..."
"
Dou Rong was shaken, grabbed a soldier who was about to run past him, and asked: "How many troops does the Han army have?"
The soldier's face was pale and his lips were blue, and he stammered: "The Han troops in Kunyang City have also been killed. There are too many people and they are boundless!"
After saying this, the soldier plucked up the courage, broke away from Dou Rong's hand, and continued to run forward.
Dou Rong lamented in his heart and said to Wang Yi: "General, retreat quickly. In this situation...if we don't retreat, I'm afraid it will be too late!"
We have more than 400,000 troops on our side, but this battle has reached such an extent. How can Wang Yi be willing to do so?
When Wang Yi was hesitating, he heard the shouts of killing from the Han army in the distance. He turned around and saw a big man with a black face, leading a group of Han cavalry to chase and kill his own deserters.
Come up.
Ah! Wang Yi screamed in his heart, and without saying a word, he said urgently to the soldiers driving the cart: "Go quickly! Go quickly!"
The soldiers drove the carriage, whipped their whips, drove the carriage, and ran forward desperately. There were many fleeing soldiers in front of them, and it was too late to get out of the way. Even if they saw someone in front of them, the carriage still hit them directly, knocking the front
The soldiers were knocked to the ground one after another, and then the carriage ruthlessly ran over them.
In the chaos, Wang Yi and Wang Xun's carriages forced their way through the crowd and ran out of the Mang Army camp. After coming out, they ran all the way north.
Following Wang Yi and Wang Xun, there were at least more than 100,000 soldiers of the Mang army who ran out.
However, they ran and died all the way. Most of them did not die at the hands of the Han troops who were chasing them, but were trampled to death by their own people.
The current scene can be said to be extremely abnormal. There are more than 100,000 soldiers of the reckless army fleeing in front, while the Han army chasing them from behind has less than a thousand cavalry.
But with so many reckless troops, no one wanted to turn around and fight to the death with the Han army. It seemed that at this moment, there was only one thing left in people's minds: run!
The defeated Mang army fled twenty or thirty miles northward, and further on, they reached the Shuishui River.
Wang Yi and Wang Xun arrived at a small ferry on the shore of the Shuishui River. There was only one ship docked here. Wang Yi and Wang Xun did not care about the life and death of their soldiers. They first ran to the ship with their cronies and ordered the boatman to
, cross the river quickly.
For the soldiers who fled to the river, boarding the boat was their only chance to survive. Seeing Wang Yi and Wang Xun trying to escape on the boat, people jumped into the water like crazy, holding on to the edge of the boat, desperately trying to escape.
Climb onto the boat.
Although this ship is not small, Wang Yi, Wang Xun and more than a hundred people are already on board, which is already the limit of the ship's endurance. Now that so many reckless soldiers are on board, how can it bear it?
Countless soldiers of the reckless army were floating on the water, but they were clinging to the edge of the boat with all their hands and feet, causing the boat to sink continuously, and it was impossible to row out of the ferry.
This situation made Wang Yi and Wang Xun anxious. The former drew his sword, squeezed to the stern of the boat, and cut off the palm of a reckless soldier holding on to the side of the boat with one sword.
The reckless soldier screamed and sank quickly into the water. Wang Yi stared with bloodshot eyes and screamed: "Kill me! Kill everyone who wants to get on the boat!"
The people who could board the ship with Wang Yi and Wang Xun were all close associates like Dou Rong, but even so, after hearing Wang Yi's order, people's faces changed drastically.
You must know that the people floating around the ship now are all our own brothers!
Seeing people staring at him with big eyes and small eyes, reluctant to take action, Wang Yi screamed: "If you don't kill them, it's us who will die! We all have to die here!"
Upon hearing this, some soldiers no longer hesitated. They stiffened their hair, raised their spears, and stabbed the reckless soldiers around the ship.
At first, it was just a few people taking action, but gradually everyone on the ship started taking action.
There were screams all around the ship, and the originally clear river water was quickly dyed red. The corpses on the river floated one layer, and many corpses sank to the bottom of the river.
