315 Recovering Liaodong 3

Gongsun Du's army was defeated and fled. They ran wildly towards the entrance of the canyon, and no one was in command. They just wanted to escape from this place and might save their lives. But what was waiting for them at the entrance of the valley was also the rain of arrows shot out of the forest. Moreover, the road ahead was broken, so it was a bit difficult to repair it in a short time. They had no time to repair the road, so the soldiers could only escape from crawling and rolling out. They all became living players, all of whom were the targets of crossbow arrows in the hands of Lu Ning soldiers. This was no different from massacre. It was a unilateral killing. There was always a minority of soldiers who could climb out, and they would be shot to death if they were not careful. Most of them could only kneel down and surrender to survive.

Behind were the pursuit of Taishici's army. The soldiers who knelt down and surrendered were taken over by the soldiers of the Brutal Bear Army in the Lu Ning Forest. Taishici's mission was of course to carry out a tragic pursuit of the fleeing enemy soldiers. They were harvesting their lives, killing, and committing crimes. They were all cruel and ruthless, and only knew how to massacre. This was their current job.

Gongsun Du, Lun Zhi and Liu Fu were too conspicuous. Their helmets and armor were different, and they became the sniper targets of Lu Ning Army snipers. When Lun Zhi was just fighting, he was shot and killed by Lu Ning Army snipers. Liu Fu and Gongsun Du were still hung with crossbow arrows. They had no time to take down the arrows. Now they were also targets of snipers. Soon they hung a lot of arrows on them. They could not dodge now, and they were soldiers everywhere. They also wanted to escape as soon as possible, but they could not move, so they could only be the sniper targets of Lu Ning Army snipers. Later, the two of them did not escape the bad luck and were still shot and killed by Lu Ning Army snipers. They all had more than ten arrows on their bodies, and they all ascended to heaven.

After Gongsun Du and his generals were shot and killed, they arose the shouts of Lu Ning's soldiers: Surrender and not kill, kneel down and never die. Gongsun Du's soldiers chose to kneel down and surrender. Of course, there were still soldiers who were still running away. They wanted to climb over the blocking trees as soon as possible. They didn't want to die or be prisoners. They knew that unless the Lu Ning army treated the prisoners in advance, the prisoners would be sent out to work as a coolie for several years.

After more than two hours of fierce fighting, the battle ended. More than 36,000 enemy soldiers were killed, most of whom were shot by Lu Ning's crossbows, nearly 30,000 prisoners, more than 20,000 war horses were seized, and many of them were shot and killed. More than 200,000 stones of food and grass were seized, and more than 2,000 soldiers of Lu Ning's army lost more than 2,000 people.

After the battlefield was cleaned, Taishi Ci stationed the army outside the canyon, and they wanted to let the soldiers rest for a while. After all, the soldiers fought to the death for more than two hours and were seriously overdrawn. The next morning, after breakfast, Taishi Ci led nearly 20,000 Flying Bear Army and 5,000 Flying Bear Army soldiers and 5,000 Flying Bear Army soldiers to gallop towards Changli, leaving only 5,000 Flying Bear Army soldiers to escort the prisoners and seized supplies, and then came.

Besides, Tian Chou led Yan Rou to sneak day and night. They crossed mountains and ridges without fear of hard work. They used the shortest time to detour behind Gongsun Du's army and easily reached Changli City. There were no famous generals in Changli City to defend the city, and only five thousand soldiers guard the city. The generals and officials dreamed that Tian Chou's army would run behind Gongsun Du's army, so the defense of the entire Changli City was not very strict. They always felt that they were in the rear and there were large troops in front, so there would be enemy attacks.

Tian Chou's army lurked in the forest on the far side of Changli City. When it was approaching the fourth day of the year, Tian Chou's army took action. When the army arrived at the suburbs of Changli City, Tian Chou asked Yan Rou to lead a team to climb the city wall. Yan Rou led more than 300 smart and capable soldiers to sneak into the city wall. At this time, the city guards on the city wall were all sleeping. They had not had a war for a long time and had been lazy. Yan Rou and his soldiers threw hooks on the city wall and climbed up the city wall directly using ropes. After they went up, they killed the city guards who were sleeping on the city wall, and all the more than 300 soldiers climbed up the city wall. Yan Rou led them to run under the city wall. They wanted to destroy the city guards at the city gate and quickly opened the city gate. As soon as the city gate opened, the problem would basically be solved.

When Yan Rou and his men killed the city guards at the city gate, they still asked the city guards to discover it. They blew the sirens. Of course, they were also killed by Yan Rou and others soon. Yan Rou asked his men to open the city gate quickly and took these more than 300 people to stand by the arrival of Tianchou's army.

The sirens woke up the city guard general who was sleeping with his beautiful wife. He felt depressed. Where did this happen? Is this impossible? But he also stood up immediately and prepared to organize people to resist. The patrolling city guard soldiers found that the Xicheng Gate was wide open and heard the sirens. They all rushed towards the Xicheng Gate. Yan Rou and his 300 soldiers under him made tenacious resistance. They were constantly killing people, blocking the influx of enemies outside the city gate and preventing them from getting close to the city gate.

After Tian Chou saw the city gate open, Ma Rang led the army to kill Changli City as fast as possible. Yan Rou's soldiers lost more than 100, but finally waited for the army to enter the city. Changli's soldiers were immediately weak and they fled one after another. They knew that the result of resistance was death, and they didn't want to die.

After the army entered Changli City, the progress was very smooth. It took only one hour to completely control Changli City. In this battle, more than 1,400 enemy soldiers were killed, nearly 3,000 were captured, and a large amount of food, grass and bows and arrows were seized. Lu Ning's army suffered losses of more than 300 people, half of which were soldiers who followed Yan Rou to enter the city first and resisted the enemy troops in the city at the gate.

Three days later, Taishici's army also arrived. They rested in Changli City for a few days. After the arrival of the rear army, Tian Chou and Taishici left five thousand soldiers of the Rising Bear Army stationed in Changli, Taishici, Tian Chou and Yan Rou led nearly 40,000 troops to kill the generals to Gongsun Du's old nest Xiangping.

When the army arrived at Xiangping City, Taishici asked someone to lift Gongsun Du's head high under the city wall, allowing Gongsun Kang to open the city gate to surrender. Gongsun Kang did not surrender. Taishici asked the soldiers to hit Gongsun Du's head with a wooden stick, which made Gongsun Kang on the city wall extremely angry. He was originally a little kid under twenty years old, so he knew that this was a provocation. The young and energetic Gongsun Kang immediately led the army out of the city to fight. As soon as Gongsun Kang's army left the city, he was defeated by Taishici's army. Gongsun Kang met Taishici and was penetrated by Taishici after less than ten rounds of battle.

The army then took advantage of the situation to seize the city gate. After Gongsun Kang's death, the army was basically in a state of no command. It took Lu Ning's army only more than an hour to completely control Xiangping City, killing less than 2,000 enemies, capturing more than 25,000 people, and fleeing thousands. The Lu Ning's army lost only more than 200 people. After nearly six months of clearing out by Lu Ning's army, all the entire Liaodong territory such as Daofang, Lelang, Xuantu were taken under the tent.
