Chapter 2449: Gongsun Xuanyuan vs Jiang Shang Li Mu (Part 2)
Xuanyuan will be merciful to Long Xuhu. In addition to cherishing his talent, the main reason is that Long Xuhu has a pure mind and is not an evil person. Such a person can be conquered and is worthy of being conquered.
But Lei Zhenzi was different. He had a blood feud with Qin and was filled with hatred in his heart.
It is impossible for such a person to be loyal to Da Qin unless the hatred in his heart can be resolved.
Xuanyuan didn't know how to resolve it, nor was he interested in resolving it. He and Lei Zhenzi were not related, so there was no need to do this for Lei Zhenzi, so he naturally had murderous intentions towards Lei Zhenzi.
Xuanyuan's base strength is only slightly higher than that of Lei Zhenzi. Logically speaking, it would take a lot of effort to defeat the opponent, let alone kill the opponent.
But Lei Zhenzi was different. Negative emotions such as hatred, anger, and chagrin affected his state all the time.
Coupled with the lack of experience in life-and-death battles, Lei Zhenzi only had 107 basic weapons, but he was completely unable to display the corresponding combat power.
It would be okay if he met someone weaker than him, Lei Zhenzi could crush him with his strength, but if he met someone with equal strength or stronger than him, it would obviously be miserable.
Xuanyuan has figured out the reality of Lei Zhenzi. According to his experience, it is not too difficult to kill Lei Zhenzi, but it will take at least dozens or hundreds of rounds.
Xuanyuan was not in a hurry, but Lei Zhenzi was. He didn't know that Jiang Shang still had a backup plan, he only knew that if he continued to fight like this, he would definitely die.
Although there were thousands of troops on Uncle Jiang's side, even if they set up the Seven-Star Flying Bear Formation, they were still overwhelmed by the Qin army's cavalry. They could barely protect themselves, let alone support him.
Could it be that he had just come down from the mountain and had not seen this colorful world, so he was about to die at the hands of Gongsun Xuanyuan?
Lei Zhenzi was filled with fear, but there was nothing he could do. Xuanyuan was too strong, and such an opponent made him too weak.
At the same time, five miles away.
Li Muzheng, leading 1,500 elite cavalry, rushed at full speed to meet Jiang Shang.
After receiving Jiang Shang's summons, Li Mu decisively led his troops out of the city to receive him without any excuse.
He wanted to hold Ba Ling, but he had too few troops. Even if he could hold it, he wouldn't be able to hold it for long.
As for Chang An, Bian even suspected him of being a traitor, so it was naturally impossible for him to send troops to support him.
Now he finally has a battalion of soldiers willing to join his camp. Even if there are certain risks, Li Mu cannot give up. He must win over Bukit's battalion.
Li Mu originally led 3,000 cavalry out of the city to meet them, but on the way, he received a message from Jiang Shang, saying that they were overtaken by nearly 1,000 Qin army cavalry.
After learning this, Li Mu decisively abandoned his infantry, led 1,500 cavalry, and went at full speed to support Buji's troops.
"We are almost there, but will Bukit Bu hold on?"
Li Mu asked slightly uneasily. He was afraid that when he arrived, all he would see was corpses everywhere.
"General, another message from Feige has just arrived. It says that the Bukit troops have not yet been defeated, but the Qin army's offensive is too fierce and they will soon be unable to hold on."
Hearing this, Li Mu immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It doesn't matter if more people die, as long as they are not defeated yet.
Once the army is defeated, it will have a huge impact on morale. How much combat strength will be left?
When Li Mu came out, he didn't want to just rescue some defeated troops with little combat effectiveness.
"This guy Wuji is so secretive. Four thousand infantrymen met a thousand Qin cavalry on the plains, and he was able to persist for so long. I really underestimated him before."
Li Mu whispered to himself, and then shouted an order: "Speed up the march."
"promise."
[Ding dong, Li Mu’s skill ‘Riding God’ has effects 1, 2, and 3 activated one after another, force 4, commander 2, and mount blessing doubled;
Li Mu: Commander 101, Force 96, Intelligence 94, Politics 68, Charisma 96;
Equipment: Zhenyue Sword 1, White Dragon Roaring Moon Horse 2;
Currently, Li Mu's commander-in-chief has increased to 103, his force has increased to 103, and the morale and speed of the entire army have increased significantly;]
The distance of five miles is just a blink of an eye for the cavalry.
With the speed increase of the 'Riding God', Li Mu's 1,500 cavalry quickly arrived at the battlefield.
Seeing that although the Tang army was in disarray, it was still not defeated, Li Mu felt completely relieved.
"General, let's go up, General Bukit and the others can't hold on any longer."
However, Li Mu did not order an attack. Instead, he said: "There is no rush. We will go back to the rear of the Qin army and come from behind."
"Why is this?"
"Although the situation of Wuji's troops is not good, they can still hold on for a while. With this skill, they can completely bypass the Qin army's rear and launch an attack from behind. The Qin army will be defeated if it is attacked from both sides." Li Mu said calmly.
"What a good plan."
"Go and take action."
"promise."
[Ding dong, Li Mu and his troops have been blessed by Jiang Shang’s skill ‘Bingzu’. The entire army’s force is 1. Li Mu’s current force has increased to 104;]
The sudden appearance of Tang Army cavalry attracted all the attention on the battlefield.
Every one of the soldiers under Buji's command was overjoyed. Facing the ferocious Qin army's cavalry, God knows how they persisted until now. Fortunately, the reinforcements finally came and they didn't have to die.
Seeing this, Gongsun Xuanyuan's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He tested Jing Zhaoyin and was sure that the Tang army would not come to support, so he continued to pursue. Unexpectedly, the other party sent troops to support.
No, this is definitely not the reinforcements sent by Chang'an. If Chang'an sent troops to support, the number must be more than this, and the Tang cavalry in front of them are only one or two thousand.
Who will we join? Could it be Li Mu?
Gongsun Xuanyuan guessed Li Mu after thinking deeply for a while. After all, it was not difficult to guess. But he never expected that Wu Qi and Fu Cunxen's armies were about to arrive at Baling City, and Li Mu actually dared to send troops out of the city to meet them.
Bukit.
This is a bit too courageous.
Others might not have had the courage, but Li Mu dared to disobey Li Shimin's orders, so it was only natural that he would do such a bold thing.
Gongsun Xuanyuan did not expect that Li Mu would come, and the arrival of Li Mu's army caused the situation on the battlefield to take a turn for the worse.
Originally, in a short time, even without Gongsun Xuanyuan's command, the Qin army's cavalry would be able to completely defeat Wu Ji's troops, but now the Qin army is at a disadvantage.
Regarding this, Gongsun Xuanyuan also regretted very much. He should not have wasted time for a Lei Zhenzi. Unfortunately, it was too late to regret now.
When Lei Zhenzi saw the reinforcements coming, he was naturally overjoyed and pestered Xuanyuan even harder to prevent him from escaping midway.
If Xuanyuan wanted to escape, Lei Zhenzi alone would not be able to stop him.
Seeing that this Tang army did not directly participate in the battle, Xuanyuan knew that this must be to cut off his own retreat, and he had no intention of quarreling with Lei Zhenzi. He shot Lei Zhenzi back with one shot and decisively issued a retreat order.
"Don't be obsessed with fighting, retreat quickly."
When Lei Zhenzi saw that Xuanyuan was about to escape, he was very anxious and shouted: "Qin thief, let my senior brother go quickly, otherwise we will never leave."
Xuanyuan didn't want to talk to Lei Zhenzi, but the opponent kept pestering him. He could only fight while commanding the army to retreat, but in the end it was too late and Li Mu cut off the retreat.
Faced with the flanking attack of Li Mu, commander of 103, and Jiang Shang, commander of 104, even Gongsun Xuanyuan couldn't bear it.
After a bitter battle, although Xuanyuan led his army to break out of the encirclement and escaped Li Mu's pursuit, he only had more than 400 cavalry left under his command, losing nearly 60% of his troops.
