"Cunxu, victory or defeat is here, and your troops can charge!"

Seeing that Li Cunxiao had disrupted the formation of the Shence Army, there was an opportunity to take advantage of it. Li Keyong, who was experienced, immediately seized the opportunity and ordered it decisively.

"I will obey the order!"

After saying a word, Li Cunxu, who had been unable to hold back, agreed happily, raised his spear and shouted: "Brothers, don't let General Cunxiao be beautiful and be with him. Let them see our brothers' methods and kill them!"

"Kill!"

Thirty thousand cavalry divided into two groups, circling the main force of the Shence Army in the shape of a pincer. At the same time, Tian Lingzi also appointed a general, and the two armies came up in the shape of geese wings. The attacks like tides, the rain of arrows, the mountain of swords, and the forest of guns gathered into a tragic scene.

The Shence Army was launching a local counterattack, and Li Cunxu fought desperately like a competition. The pressure like Xiangshui suddenly moved the Shence Army and quickly retreated backwards as a whole for a moment.

After just a moment of retreat, the same melee was completely different. The two Lis were as powerful as rainbows, and Tian Lingzi's army had formed a situation of being suppressed and beaten. This had an immeasurable effect on Li Cunxiao's 10,000 cavalrymen who forcibly broke into the enemy formation. It can be said that this is an extremely successful example of psychological warfare.

At this time, the Shence Army was in a state of invasion and its morale was not high. In this case, the tactic they should adopt was to escape immediately without a single blow. Once a head-on decisive battle was formed, it was a very dangerous thing for the soldiers of the Shence Army who were unwilling to fight. At this point, Tian Lingzi made another mistake.

When Li Keyong, the joint commander of the generals of various Hedong Army, returned to the rescue in time and personally commanded the battle. The military orders were clear and the upper and lower parts were integrated, this was also an important factor in deciding the outcome in this battle.

Of course, the combat style of the Hedong Army soldiers who are united and fight tenaciously is not to doubt the role they have in this battle.

In addition, there is another important reason, that is, the impact of unexpected factors on the war. For example, in this battle, there was a small captain named Zhou Desheng in the Hedong Army. Zhou Desheng was previously a small salt ding in Hedong. Because he joined the Hedong Army, he became a member of this army.

He was injured in the battle and his intestines were flowing out. After he was disarmed, he pulled out his sword and broke the front leg of a war horse rushing in front of him, causing the enemy to fall off. Then, Zhou Desheng took advantage of the situation and cut off the enemy's head. What he never expected was that the person he killed was Tian Lingzi, the commander of the Shence Army.

Tian Lingzi's unexpected death caused great chaos in the morale of the Shen Ce Army, thus accelerating the defeat of the Shen Ce Army, which quickly tilted the entire battle situation towards the Hedong Army, and made the Shen Ce Army win a big victory at the cost of small casualties. The battlefield changes rapidly, and victory or defeat should not be easily mentioned before the last moment. A small person, a small matter, and an accident may completely change the situation of the battle. Seeing this, Wang Chongrong, at the head of Puzhou City, immediately opened the city gate and led the three armies to come out.

In this battle, Tian Lingzi died, and the main force of his troops killed or captured, annihilated nearly 70%, which could be called a complete victory. However, the two vassal army was still unwilling to give up, and some generals under the Shence Army still broke through the siege and led the remaining defeated generals of the troops to escape from the battle. Relying on the precious time that the soldiers who were still stranded on the battlefield and fought to the death, retreated quickly. The direction of the retreat was Chang'an, but Wang Chongrong seemed to be bullied by the Shence Army, and his soul was still dispersed and he pursued him reluctantly.

The Shence Army withdrew dozens of miles and came to a small hill called Zhongnan Mountain. With its superiority, the Shence Army still had a difficult time to fight against the Puzhou Army. Wang Chongrong was also the marshal of the vassal state who started his career immediately. Once he had the determination to fight to the death, he was not afraid. Wang Chongrong led his troops to climb the mountain to attack. A bloody battle forced the Shence Army to abandon Zhongnan Mountain and continue to retreat. In one day, the Siyi defended the position, and Wang Chongrong always bit them tightly. The battle was so fierce that it was evident that Wang Chongrong exhausted three war horses and continued to charge in the battle four times.

In the end, only more than 300 cavalry of the Shence Army escaped from the valley. In order to cover the escape of the main general, all of them became prisoners of the Puzhou Army. A commander of the Shence Army led more than 300 cavalry and defeated generals to flee back to Chang'an City. Emperor Xizong of Tang Dynasty Li Yan heard the news and was like thunder. The entire army of the main force of Chang'an was wiped out, which was a major blow to the morale of the Tang army. The previous time Tian Lingzi captured the city of Shanzhou, which was not so convincing. The encounter between the main forces of the two armies was a real skill of one sword and one shot.

In this battle, the Shence Army was still completely defeated and was defeated miserably. It is conceivable that the pessimistic atmosphere in Chang'an is so important.

In the Golden Palace, Li Yan said angrily: "What's wrong? I'm all mute? A bunch of food, I'm so disappointed with you."

Li Yan was so angry that his whole body trembled. He looked at the officials upwards, but he couldn't come up with an accurate idea.

"I will report to Your Majesty, I will report it." An old man stood out from the left wing. Li Yan looked closely and saw that it was Yang Fugong, the left envoy of Shence Army. The left army of Shence Army is now the last army in Chang'an, and it was Li Yan's last reliance.

After suppressing his emotions, Li Yan felt as if he had grabbed a life-saving straw and hurriedly said, "Yang Qing has a good idea, come quickly."

Yang Fugong said: "Report to Your Majesty, I have 30,000 troops in the left army now, and Chang'an City is not enough to defend. In addition, Wang Chongrong, Li Keyong, and Zhu Zi have already combined 200,000 troops and are full of momentum. I think Your Majesty should evacuate quickly, and first go to Li Changfu in Longyou, and then order the seventh prince of Luoyang and Duan Duke to lead troops back to the rescue immediately, and major events can be expected."

Li Yan sat down dejectedly on the dragon throne and moved out of Chang'an twice. Among the 300-year-old kings of the Tang Dynasty, he was the only one: "Is this really the only way?"

Yang Fugong bowed and said, "I hope Your Majesty think twice."

Now Chang'an City is like a cage. Once it is left, I may have the chance to restore the Tang Kingdom and join the emperor again.

Speaking of this, he became worried about gains and losses again, and looked at Yang Fugong nervously and said, "Yang Qing, you said... Seventh brother... are they really sure that they can recover Chang'an? If they can't recover, then we will die without a place to bury."

Yang Fugong had no choice but to comfort him: "Duke Duan holds heavy troops and is invincible. I believe Duke can do it."

Li Yan gritted his teeth: "Okay, pass on my will and immediately withdraw from Chang'an, and ask the seventh brother and Duan Duan to return to the army to rescue quickly and confer Duan Mingyu..." Speaking of this, Li Yan paused: "Yang Qing, in your opinion, what should I confer?"

Yang Fugong curled his lips and said seriously: "Your Majesty, you should be granted the king."
