After the two armies fought, whether it was Chai Rong or Li Hongji, they all knew that as a commander, they could do very little, and they were more concerned about guarding the Dragon Banner of the Emperor. As long as the flag was flying, it meant that the army had not failed, and the soldiers would continue to fight hard and fight to the last moment!

Li Hongji stood under the dragon flag and felt panic for no reason.

A few days ago, he sent Xu Xuan across the river to stabilize the overall situation. Xu Xuan was loyal and capable enough to be competent. However, Xu Xuan also had weaknesses. He was good at planning the country and was clumsy. In Jinling City, wolves, insects, tigers and leopards were all a group of sluts. With Xu Xuan's ability, he might not be able to get a advantage. If he was plotted against, wouldn't Jinling be dangerous?

Li Hongji was thinking about it, suddenly a horse passed through Yangzhou and rushed directly to His Majesty the Emperor.

"I'll tell you that General Zhu Lingyun and General Zhu led his troops to rescue Jinling, and he has passed Caishiji!"

"Zhu Lingyun's reinforcements?"

Li Hongji showed joy, clenched his fists, and said happily, "I am worried!"

With these 100,000 troops and Xu Xuan, it is enough to protect Jinling.

Li Hongji, overjoyed, immediately issued an order, and 30,000 Southern Tang iron-armored infantry rushed towards the Great Zhou side with majestic steps.

In order to compete with the Iron Cavalry of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Li Hongji placed his hopes on the infantry. He spared no effort to build more than 40 kilograms of heavy armor for the soldiers, almost covering the entire body and wrapping them tightly.

In addition, the weapons in the soldiers' hands are all big swords and axes, which are full of lethality.

The 30,000 heavily armored infantry can be said to be the result of Li Hongji's hard work. He placed all his hopes on this team.

The soldiers rushed towards the direction of the Great Zhou with heavy and solid steps step by step.

"kill!"

The heavy infantry joined the battle group. They waved their weapons and launched an attack on the Mo Dao Bing. The tired Mo Dao Bing suddenly encountered a strong enemy and lost hundreds of people in an instant. The heavy infantry in the South Tang screamed and rushed forward from the gap. The Mo Dao Bing behind fought hard. The swords and axes on both sides raised high, the weapons hit, Mars burst into pieces, blood surged, and people fell down every moment...

Chai Rong stared at the battlefield and nodded slightly. Is this the only thing that is decent?

Otherwise, it would be too bad if the trouble would make the heavens angry and the people would resent, and there would be no results at all.

"It's your turn!"

Chai Rong nodded at Zhang Yongde beside him. Zhang Yongde immediately understood and hurriedly called his brothers and rushed up.

Zhang Yongde has always been a powerful general in the Zhou Dynasty. In terms of force, he may not be as good as Zhao Da, but his crazy spirit on the battlefield can definitely make Zhao Da ashamed!

He ran quickly, like a bear and tiger going down the mountain.

The brothers behind him screamed even more and their fighting spirit was rising. Zhou Bing did not need any special encouragement. Almost every soldier was eager to fight on the battlefield and make meritorious service and award titles.

They don't even care if they will get hurt.

Even if you are disabled, as long as you can read and understand official documents, you can go to the local area to become a minor official. Although you are a big official with sesame and green beans, there are many people in the countryside who are rushing to marry their daughters to them.

The Holy Emperor takes care of everyone in this way, what else can hesitate?

"Go to die!"

"Get out!"

"Everyone is going to die!"

Zhang Yongde waved the long sword in his hand and slashed the forearm of a heavily armored infantry. He flew into the sky with both hands and axes. Zhang Yongde waved his hand and hit the head, neatly and slashed an enemy.

He ran wildly at the sword in his hand and was elusive. Every time he took a step forward, someone died at his feet.

The general is the courage of the soldiers, and the Southern Tang really lacks warriors who can compete with the Great Zhou.

Two generals tried to stop Zhang Yongde, but Zhang Yongde cut off his horse's hooves and waved his hands to end his life. Mo Dao hand, who received assistance, stabilized the formation again. They slowly retreated, temporarily left the battlefield and took a rest.

The archer who followed behind immediately added up.

These people were like a group of tigers, extremely ferocious, with 30,000 infantry soldiers being held tightly and unable to break the deadlock at all.

On the contrary, under the joint attack of Zhang Yongde and the jumping soldiers, the decline was revealed.

Heavy armor became a burden to them, and many people were panting, slowing their pace, and their arms waving lost their strength.

Li Hongji was desperate as soon as he came up. He needed to defeat the Great Zhou as quickly as possible. The situation in Jiangnan was already decayed. Even with Zhu Lingyun's 100,000 reinforcements, it might not be foolproof.

"No, I have to go into battle myself!"

Li Hongji silently raised his sword.

In addition to the 30,000 infantry, he was his 20,000 Shenwei. This was the confidant who was trained by him when he was the prince. He was absolutely loyal and absolutely loyal!

On the battlefield now, on the left and right wings, the Southern Tang faced the powerful generals of the Zhou Dynasty. Zhao Kuangyin and Han Tong rushed forward, and they still had heavy cavalry to suppress the formation, so the Southern Tang had no chance.

"Only by concentrating troops and breaking through from the front, as long as Guo Rong is killed, nothing will happen!"

Li Hongji thought of this, and at this moment, someone suddenly came over.

"Your Majesty, Jinling urgently reported."

Li Hongji's heart trembled. If it weren't for Zhu Lingyun's reinforcements, why would there be any problems?

He snatched it and tore it apart, and found that there was a joint name of several people, including Chen Qiao, Song Qiqiu, and Feng Yanji!

"absurd!"

Why did these old guys who were dismissed jump out again?

Who gave them the power to interfere in the government?

What is Xu Xuan doing?

Do you don’t know how to use the Emperor’s Sword I gave you?

Li Hongji was furious, but after he finished watching it, his back was soaked in cold sweat! He was completely stunned!

Xu Xuan did not enter the city and fell into the hands of Da Zhou.

Chen Qiao was polite, and did not say that he surrendered, but said that he might surrender to the enemy, or be captured... But even so, it made Li Hongji panic.

Xu Xuan did not enter the city, and Jinling was still in the hands of a group of waste. Who can guard the capital for me?

When Li Hongji was helpless, another urgent delivery came. The husbands in Jinling City did not allow Zhu Lingyun to enter the city, but asked him to lead his troops to attack Zhongshan...

Three urgent messages were sent in succession, as if there were three thunders. Li Hongji was dizzy and almost fell off the horse's back.

He really didn't expect that so many things had happened in Jinling in just a few days? He carefully sorted out and found that Xu Xuan had fallen into Da Zhou's hands, which was the earliest case, but this urgent delivery was detained for two days. When the troops entered Zhongshan, it was Zhu Lingyun who sent him alone.

"Damn it!"

Li Hongji didn't understand that this group of old guys, like guarding against thieves, guarding against Zhu Lingyun and preventing him from entering the city. Instead, they forced him to attack Zhongshan and fight with Ye Hua!

"Damn it, all deserve to die!"

Li Hongji was about to explode. Zhu Lingyun was definitely not Ye Hua's opponent. Moreover, based on time calculations, it was a day and a half ago that Zhu Lingyun went to attack Zhongshan.

If he doesn't do it well, he's already defeated.

If these 100,000 troops are gone, the morale in Jinling City will collapse and it will inevitably be lost!

The more Li Hongji thought about it, the more angry he became. The little white face suddenly turned red, and the same color as pig liver, his eyes turned black. When the guards around him saw His Majesty like this, they hurriedly surrounded him, and they were panicked.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

After a long time, Li Hongji gritted his teeth!

If Jinling loses, it will be meaningless even if he defeats Zhou Bing.

In comparison, capital is much more important than Yangzhou.

Even if you lose the land of Jiangbei, you can still be a fair-going emperor. If you lose Jinling, you will have a dead end!

Li Hongji hesitated and repeated that he did not issue an order to let the Divine Guards attack. On the contrary, Li Hongji chose to retreat!

Retreat to Yangzhou and defend the city.

At the same time, I mobilized the navy and wanted to cross the river and clean up the mess myself!

The Huanglong Banner retreated, and the Southern Tang people and horses began to retreat towards Yangzhou.

Just as the dragon flag moved, Chai Rong's mouth raised, showing a disdainful sneer!

"I thought you would fight to the death, which really disappointed me!"

Chai Rong suddenly raised the Emperor's Sword, "Calendar with me!"

The light golden sweat-blooded horse had long been unable to hold back. With the permission of its owner, it ran four hooves and rushed down the hill like arrows.

The imperial guards followed closely behind were rushing to lightning, following closely around His Majesty the Emperor.

Regarding the grasp of the battle situation, Chai Rong's skills were definitely first-class. He did not get entangled with the heavy infantry of the Southern Tang Dynasty, but instead bypassed the infantry formation and attacked the back.

The descendants left by Li Hongji rushed up immediately, but the emperor left, so they had no more combat power. Chai Rong was able to break through it with just one charge.

The rear was in chaos, and the heavy infantry had only a strong armor, but had no strength to escape. Thirty thousand people were instantly defeated by Zhang Yongde. Some died tragically, some were captured, some cut off the leather rope with a knife, and threw the armor to escape.

Chai Rong's goal is very clear, which is Li Hongji's dragon flag.

"You can't run out of my palm!"

The soldiers who were cut off the rear rushed up one after another, but under Chai Rong's men, they had no power to fight.

The sharp sword pierced through the armor and cut off the throat. As the emperor, Chai Rong's kung fu was so powerful! Even the sweat-blooded horse was unique. He kept biting other horses with his teeth and kicking them with his front hooves. He was even more ferocious than the master.

When the emperor went to fight, the men on both wings dared not neglect.

Zhao Kuangyin personally led two thousand cavalry to attack the defeated soldiers. He killed and slashed all the way and rushed out a bloody road. The surrendered Southern Tang soldiers on both sides had no time to care about it, so he could only let them kneel on the side of the road and wait for the Zhou soldiers behind.

Zhao Kuangyin caught up with Chai Rong as fast as possible.

"Your Majesty, the last general comes to obey the order!"

"Okay! General Zhao, capture Li Hongji for me!"

"Abide by the order!"

Zhao Kuangyin urged the big green horse and ran hard. Gradually, Li Hongji's dragon flag was getting closer and closer. The emperors who were fighting to protect them were all native chickens and tiles in Zhao Da's eyes.

His long sword was waving, and the heads on the opposite side rolled. Zhao Dahong's eyes turned red, "Those who blocked me died!"

The roar was breathtaking, and from the other side, Han Tong led his troops and killed them. In addition, Gao Huaide, Chen Shi, Murong Yanzhao, Liu Yanqin, Wang Tingyi, Shi Shouxin, Pan Mei, Cao Bin... The powerful generals of the Zhou Dynasty went all out to chase and kill the defeated soldiers.

Li Hongji was not much better than the dog of the frenzy family. He finally escaped to the city of Yangzhou and was about to enter the city. Suddenly, he turned around and found that a crescent arrow hit the dragon flag. The flagpole broke in the middle and fell into the moat.
