Xie Guang was panting like an ox and sweating like rain.
He had been fighting for half a day, his arms were so sore that he couldn't even lift the knife.
Most of the guards around him were dead, and the rest were all injured, as if they were at the end of a powerful crossbow.
The soldier holding the flag had died in the battle, and the battle flag had been chopped down by Hu Feng and thrown to the ground, covered in dust and blood.
If Hu Feng hadn't suffered a lot of losses recently and was unwilling to fight with him and increase the losses, he would have been hacked to death long ago.
Guo Bang's body was lying next to him, with two empty eyes that made people panic.
Guo Si died after all, but Xie Guang didn't know whether he was happy or worried.
In fact, he had anticipated this day.
As a rebellious minister on an equal footing with Li Jue, Guo Si did not have many opportunities to atone for his crimes.
Guo Si's death is a good thing for others.
From now on, there is no need to follow Guo Si anymore, and he can change his family in a legitimate manner.
But he didn't know why, he still felt very sad and even desperate.
Jia Xu wants to use the heads of Li Jue and Guo Si as a meeting gift. Can he win the favor of the Liangzhou people from the court?
Judging from Yang Ding's delay in attacking, at least Yang Ding didn't really believe it.
He didn't want to fight any more and just die fighting like this. It wouldn't be a bad idea to follow Guo Bang on the road to hell.
Xie Guang lost all hope and let go of the sword in his hand. He looked at Hu Feng who was walking slowly and grinned with a sad smile.
It is really ironic that he died in the hands of Xiliang people in the end.
"What do you want to say?" Hu Feng walked up to Xie Guang, holding a knife and asking breathlessly.
After playing for a long time, his ears were almost deafened by the sound of the drums.
"I'm laughing at you... I don't know how many days. If the fight is like this, even if Li Jue can win, how many more days will he... be able to live?"
Hu Feng blinked and was about to speak when he suddenly noticed that the soil on the ground was vibrating. He thought it was because he had been fighting for too long and his eyesight was dizzy. He rubbed his eyes and looked again, and found that the soil was vibrating even more.
Before he could react, a group of cavalry rushed over and passed by him.
Hu Feng flew up, landed heavily, spit out two mouthfuls of blood, and stopped moving.
Horse hooves kicked up smoke and dust, blocking Xie Guang's sight. Xie Guang raised his arm to cover his mouth and nose, and narrowed his eyes.
In a daze, someone reined in his mount and stopped in front of him.
Xie Guang opened his eyes and saw a group of Xiliang cavalry passing by, and a tall figure standing in front of him, looking at him with his head lowered.
"Zhang Xiu?" Xie Guang was surprised and happy.
Zhang Xiu jumped off the horse, pulled out the Huanshou sword, chopped off Hu Feng's head with one blow, and hung it on the saddle.
Blood dripped along the saddle and stained the horse's legs red.
Zhang Xiu wiped off the blood on his shirt and said with a smile: "Uncle Xie, what's wrong with you? Hey, is this... General Chariot and Cavalry? When did he die?"
Seeing Guo Si's body, Zhang Xiu was startled. He squatted down and looked again and again. "Where are the eyes? Who did it, so cruelly?"
"It should be Li Jue." Xie Guang spitted blood and rolled his eyes. "Why did you come here? Where is the hussar general?"
Zhang Xiu looked around and talked to him.
He listened to Yang Xiu's suggestion, bypassed Li Jue's Chinese army camp, rushed to the battlefield, and spent some time.
He didn't know whether Guo Si's death in battle had anything to do with his lateness, and he didn't want to bear this responsibility.
He only cares about the situation on the battlefield, how many opportunities he has to make meritorious deeds, and whether he will be on the wrong team.
"How many troops did you bring out?" Zhang Xiu stood up, looked around, and frowned slightly.
At a rough glance, the total number of troops on the battlefield should be less than 20,000, and Guo Si's camp was relatively intact, so he probably wasn't going all out.
If this is the case, then he is bringing it upon himself.
There is no advantage in terms of military strength. If you want to retain your strength, it would be strange if you don't die.
Xie Guang said nothing.
He also knew that Guo Si was careless this time. He wanted to take the initiative and retreat to the camp after causing a melee. Unexpectedly, others did not fall for the trick, but he himself fell into it.
Seeing that Xie Guang didn't answer, Zhang Xiu laughed proudly, got on his horse, and led his men to the battlefield.
Hu Feng was killed by Zhang Xiu, and his men immediately collapsed, and warning horns sounded one after another.
After fighting hard for a long time, they finally surrounded Xie Guang, but Zhang Xiu took advantage of him, which dealt a huge blow to his morale.
Many people thought that Zhang Xiu was the one who robbed the camp last night, and they went to Guo Si's camp later. It was not surprising that Zhang Xiu appeared here. Hu Feng was dead, and no one wanted to fight Zhang Ji's cavalry again.
Dispersed in a hurry.
The collapse of the left wing quickly aroused the vigilance of the central army, and the rapid sound of horns sounded throughout the battlefield.
——
Xie Guang was regretting that Zhang Xiu had taken advantage of him, when he suddenly heard a horn sound behind him.
He turned around and saw the battle flags waving in the camps. Some camps had opened their doors, and cavalry poured out of them and rushed towards the battlefield.
Xie Guangda was overjoyed, his strength revived, and he stood up with a leap.
"What's going on?"
"I don't know." The few surviving guards also looked confused.
A group of cavalry galloped over, and at the front was the general Gao Shuo whom Xie Guang knew. He loudly told Xie Guang that Jia Xu had sent a messenger, saying that the emperor was going to attack, and the final decisive battle had begun, so they should attack with all their troops.
"The emperor is out of battle?" Xie Guang was surprised and happy, and couldn't believe his ears.
The emperor's status is precious, and he will never go into battle easily if he is not sure of it. When the emperor goes into battle, it often means that he has the ticket to victory.
"I don't know, but the fighting is really fierce in the southeast." Gao Shuo said impatiently: "Can you still ride a horse? If you can't, just wait here. I'll go kill for a while. If it's too late, you won't be able to catch anything.
"
Xie Guang was so angry that he cursed. "When I was working hard, you were watching from the camp. Now you know how to take the credit."
Gao Shuo chuckled. "It doesn't seem to be a problem if you have the strength to curse. I'll go first, and you can follow me quickly." After saying that, without waiting for Xie Guang to speak, he waved his sword and galloped on his horse.
"Here comes the horse!" Xie Guang spat, led a bareback war horse, and got on the horse.
The guards found the battle flag and raised it high.
"General, please give the order."
Xie Guang scolded: "I want to give you more orders. The whole army is on my side and I'm going to be beaten!"
The guard responded, waved the battle flag, and pointed forward.
Seeing Xie Guang's battle flag, the soldiers who had just rushed out of the camp understood it and attacked the nearest enemy.
The soldiers of Xiliang fought hard for half a day and were exhausted. Suddenly they encountered a new force that had gathered strength and strength, and were instantly defeated.
The warning horn sounded louder and louder.
Guo Si's generals Gao Shuo, Xia Yu and others led their respective troops into the battlefield and chased him to the north.
Li Xian, who was besieging Sun Rui and Wei Jie, realized that the situation was not right and that the army might be outflanked, so he had to turn around and fight.
Taking this opportunity, Shi Sunrui and others joined forces and marched southward, and in turn surrounded Li Jue's central army.
