Chapter 211: Great victory in the first battle!
The rocks were still rolling down. Hui Shoutao, Zhu Dachang and Qin Shou followed the army and advanced quickly while carefully observing the current situation.
As the huge rocks from the top of the mountain rolled down, countless soldiers were injured or killed...
In just one encounter, thousands of people were lost.
Afterwards, although they were prepared, they were still unable to withstand the continuously rolling boulders.
Under Hui Shoutao's command, everyone left the foot of the mountain and gathered in the middle of the road in order to minimize the damage caused by the boulders.
Seeing that his order was effective, Hui Shoutao had no time to breathe a sigh of relief before a rain of arrows started from halfway up the mountain. The soldiers hiding in the middle of the road became ready-made targets.
Looking at the soldiers falling on the ground in groups, Hui Shoutao was so angry that he almost vomited blood!
Before they even saw the Qi army, they had already lost tens of thousands of people, and the number of casualties continued to increase.
Hui Shoutao brandished the spear in his hand, knocking down several arrows that were shot at him. He turned and shouted to Zhu Dachang and Qin Shou, "We can't go on like this. We must find a way to break out!"
Before he could finish his words, a rocket landed at his feet. The dry fallen leaves fanned the flames, and the fire spread instantly.
"Damn it!" Hui Shoutao cursed in his heart. Once the fire started, it would not only block their vision, but also further increase their casualties.
Just at this moment, the sound of Qi army chasing and killing was heard from behind.
It turned out that the 20,000 people led by Jia Zhengjing had been killed to pieces by Mu Lingshuang and his men. Except for those who fled and hid, they were all lying on the ground.
However, Mu Lingshuang had no intention of withdrawing his troops. He led the powerful Qi army to advance triumphantly, chasing the main force of the Liang army and continuing to pursue them.
At this moment, he was leading his men to block their entrance.
Hui Shoutao, who was in a panic due to the huge rocks and rockets, turned around and took a closer look. He saw that the Qi army had flying flags, neat military formations and a large number of troops.
They knew that they had fallen into an enemy ambush.
But the only thing to be thankful for is that the young general has already broken through the siege with most of his troops.
Otherwise, these 100,000 elite soldiers would have been wiped out in the enemy's ambush.
Hui Shoutao, who was secretly rejoicing, didn't know that the 50,000 people taken away by Messi Wang were deliberately let go by Mu Lingshuang.
Because she only has more than 30,000 people in total. Even if Messi Wang doesn't take people away, she can't keep so many people. She may even be killed by the enemy because of her small number of people.
As for now, there is no doubt that the more than 30,000 men under her command are facing the less than 20,000 men left by Hui Shoutao.
Hui Shoutao, who was completely unaware of the situation, watched as the number of people around him dwindled, and he also made up his mind to die. He turned around and shouted:
"Brothers, follow me to kill the enemy!"
He led the remaining soldiers to charge towards the Qi army, trying to engage in close combat with the enemy.
Unfortunately, Mu Lingshuang didn't do as he wished and just ordered the people in ambush to shoot arrows continuously.
When Hui Shoutao and his soldiers rushed to Mu Lingshuang, there were not even ten thousand people behind them.
Even his two deputy generals Zhu Dachang and Qin Shou died in battle to protect him.
Looking at the enemy commander sitting safely on his horse, and thinking of the casualties suffered that night, Hui Shoutao's eyes were red, and he was about to rush forward, wielding his spear...
Mu Lingshuang slightly turned her body and easily avoided the spear that Hui Shoutao was stabbing at her.
Hui Shoutao, who was sitting on the horse, was still leaning forward due to inertia. He wanted to take advantage of the situation to stab Mu Lingshuang, but Mu Lingshuang just casually swung his arm, and the golden hammer in his hand stopped the opponent's spear attack.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Hui Shoutao was about to drop his gun and draw the dagger on the horse's back, but he saw that the other party actually threw away the pair of golden hammers in his hands as if digging his own grave.
Hui Shoutao's face lit up with joy, and he gave up the idea of drawing his sword. He exerted force with the spear in his hand and stabbed it towards the opponent.
Mu Lingshuang stretched out her slender hand in the face of the other party's horror, and grabbed the other party's gun barrel with a clear goal.
Hui Shoutao tried to pull the spear back but failed. Just as he was about to continue, Mu Lingshuang had already grabbed her spear with her backhand. With a slight shake of her arm, she casually made a spear flower and swung the tip of the spear forward, leaving a clear blood mark on Hui Shoutao's neck.
Hui Shoutao's eyes widened and he fell down with a look of unwillingness on his face.
The soldiers following Hui Shoutao were frightened when they saw their general being killed so easily. They dropped their shields and spears and retreated like crazy.
Seeing this, Mu Lingshuang did not rush to let the people behind him move forward. He waited until they retreated to the range of the gun. Then he gathered his internal energy and shouted loudly at the Qi army ambushed on the mountains on both sides:
"Fire arrows!"
After another rain of arrows, the Liang army that was fleeing in panic was severely damaged again.
It was not until this time that Mu Lingshuang sent someone to pass on the message and encircle and wipe out the remaining troops.
In an instant, ambushes were everywhere, and the mountain paths were filled with the remains of Liang army soldiers.
The battle ended with a great victory for the Qi army. Mu Lingshuang looked at the corpses on the ground calmly, with no expression of sadness or joy on her face.
War has always been cruel. If the enemy doesn't die, you will be the one to die.
She still has a wife and family, so naturally she doesn't want to let him die, so she can only send him to death.
Glancing at the corpse at his feet once more, Mu Lingshuang shook the reins, and the warhorse neighed and galloped back in the direction it had come from...
