Chapter 396: The Final Battle of the Land of Abundance (11)
Zhu Gaoxu led the cavalry to evacuate Nanhuokou, and the infantry also escorted the prisoners and took away the wounded soldiers from both sides and retreated one mile one by one. The fighting subsided a little.
The hazy sun was already in the west. The civil and military officials of Shengjin Temple sent people to the back mountain to ask the baggage team to deliver food. Under the arrangement of the central army, the baggage soldiers and servants came down in an orderly manner with food boxes and water buckets. Each hundred-household team had about eight or nine to more than ten miscellaneous soldiers, waiting on the soldiers of each team.
Zhu Gaoxu and his generals sat cross-legged beside their war horses, eating the same thing: a ball of rice on a cabbage leaf, with a few pickles and a small piece of boiled Sichuan bacon on top; the soldiers took out spoons from their waist pockets, wiped them clean and ate, and everyone carried a lot of small tools, such as k

At the hour of You, on the curved slope west of Sajin Dam, a crowd of people rolled out from the embankment like an endless flood. The last rays of the setting sun shone on countless helmets and weapons, shining like the ripples on the sea.The drums of war were beating, and the movement of tens of thousands of people was a rumbling sound. The shouting waves rose and fell repeatedly like waves in the river, hitting the vast mountains and rivers. The wild grass and fruit trees on the big slope were being swallowed up little by little by the sea of people.The large formation of the government troops in the distance was also slowly receding, and was about two miles away. Only half of the setting sun was above the horizon, and the ground was in a contrast of light and dark, with shadows already appearing in places blocked by hills.The scene on earth was like a terrifying landslide, slow but difficult to change and resist.Countless arrays advanced togeth

The setting sun had already fallen into the western plains, and the bright moon had risen above the Longquan Mountains. The sky and the earth were hazy, and the white linen on the helmets of the Han army soldiers undulated in pieces, like snowflakes falling on the sea.In the dim and pale light, a large ball of fire would occasionally burst out from the front, and with a "boom", it was the sound of artillery fire. The rows of muskets flashed, and in an instant they were brighter than the stars in the sky.Many pine branch torches were lit one after another on the large formations on both sides; shouts and footsteps were heard everywhere, and the wilderness was still extremely noisy in the evening.The light at this time is not as bright as during the day, and it is difficult to see things a little further away, and the scenery becomes hazy; but people can still see the nearby scenery with the afterglow of the evening and the moonlight in the sky. There is a

Countless torches lit up the night sky with extraordinary splendor, cheers echoed throughout the fields, and the passion for victory burned in the crowd.Such a scene and atmosphere seemed as if the war was over and everything people wanted was within reach. Zhu Gaoxu breathed a sigh of relief, and his face showed a hint of relaxation and fatigue under the light of the torch.As he rode his horse, wherever he went, the cheers of the soldiers suddenly became louder. "King of Han! King of Han..." The shouts came one after another.At this time, Qu Neng rode his horse towards them from the west. Amid the noise, Qu Neng rode forward and said, "King of Han, Commander Liu and the generals have led the people to chase them, and more and more prisoners are being taken."In such an atmosphere, Qu Neng looked exceptionally calm and composed.Zhu Gaoxu took a breath and looked at Qu Neng's face very seriously. The light of the torch in Zhu Gaoxu's eyes seem

The news of Yang Wuhou's defeat at Taiping Field soon spread throughout the city, and the gates of Chengdu were successively put under martial law.All the troops of Li Rang, the commander of the Chengdu rear guard, were transferred to the front line, but the general in charge of the rear guard was replaced, so he was unable to follow Xue Lu to join the battle.In the early morning, Li Rang slowly ate breakfast, put on his clothes and armor, and walked to the door of his house, surrounded by servants and soldiers. At this time, two men in cloth clothes were already waiting by the gatehouse. They came up to him, took out a piece of paper with a seal and a Jinyiwei waist badge, and one of them said, "Please ask Commander Li to go with us."Li Rang's face turned pale immediately, and he stood there for a long time without saying a word. There were a group of guards and servants around him, but no one spoke at this time."Commander Li?" the Jinyiwei soldie

The city gates in the distance were tightly closed, swords and spears were everywhere on the city walls, and the muzzles of the cannons were pitch black; the solid city seemed like a fortress surrounded by iron barrels. Qu Neng led several riders and rushed to the south gate of Chengdu more than a hundred steps away, and could already see a row of heads hanging on the gate."Boom! Boom!" Two cannon shots were heard from the city wall. Qu Neng spurred his horse to move closer.The generals around him shouted, "It's dangerous! Commander Qu, don't let this get you down."There was a whizzing sound in the air, and a bunch of arrows fell on the ground in front of Qu Neng, nailing the ground densely. Qu Neng reined in his horse and looked up at the head on the top of the city. The veins on his temples bulged, and the red on his skin seemed like blood beads being squeezed out.He didn't make a sound, but he clenched his hands tightly, and the tendons in his w

In the camp of the King of Han's army, the boring and repetitive noise of sawing wood continued. The soldiers carrying the wood also shouted "Hey Yo" in a very orderly and rhythmic manner. People were cutting and carrying wood, building Huihui cannons and ladders, and there was a busy scene everywhere.The generals of the guards who knew the inside story of the army had advised Zhu Gaoxu not to make weapons. But Zhu Gaoxu replied: If we besiege the city but do not build siege tools, it would be like telling Guo Zi that we are determined to seize the city by relying on internal forces!Before Mu Sheng's army reached the west of the city, Zhu Gaoxu's troops had already surrounded Chengdu on all sides.
