Chapter 860 Death of Li Xiaoyi
Chapter 860 Death of Li Xiaoyi
At seven o'clock in the morning, the sky is getting light!
Of Li Xiaoyi's last 14,000 troops, only less than 30 were left.
After being surrounded and intercepted by the Youwei Guards, only a little over 4,000 of his 4,000 cavalrymen were left.
Later, they caught up with the Right Wuwei Cavalry, Qianniuwei Cavalry, Right Longwuwei Black Armored Cavalry and Yuqianwei Cavalry brought by Li Cunxi, and finally were rushed in the face by the Left Weiwei Cavalry.
Therefore, the entire army was wiped out.
By the end of the fight, Li Xiaoyi no longer had any chance of winning.
Even the Yingyang Guards who were there to cover Li Xiaoyi's retreat were all killed outside Li Xiaoyi's camp, and completely became dead souls in a foreign land.
The corpses on the ground all told of the cruelty of the war, and the scene of blood and floating on the water was even more horrifying. The corpses on the ground were sleeping in various postures until the cavalry approached and trampled on the corpses, and the corpses were slightly deformed.
"Li Xiaoyi, you bastard!"
"You've killed tens of thousands of my brothers. I will never stand against you. Today I'll chop off your head and leave you with no place to rest!"
Li Kaigu sat on his horse, behind Li Cunxi, pointing his knife at the already exhausted Li Xiaoyi, and spoke with gritted teeth.
Facing Li Kaigu's anger, Li Xiaoyi felt nothing and just smiled freely.
"You are just an incompetent person. One incompetent general can tire out a thousand troops. I'm talking about you, a piece of trash."
"However, this sentence can now also be applied to me, Li Xiaoyi. Ever since the conquest of Li Jingye, I, Li Xiaoyi, have looked down on all the heroes in the world. Later, Wang Xiaojie appeared, and this great general only took a second look at him."
"I never thought that after just over a decade, I would become the kind of person I once despised the most."
"What this great general never expected was that the former eagle of the grasslands would actually defect to the Great Zhou."
Li Xiaoyi looked at Dalha.
The deputy commander-in-chief of the Southern Zhou Dynasty Army, who had plotted his death, saw through Zhang Renyuan from behind.
It's not unfair for him to lose to such a person.
What's more, it was still a calculated move, so his defeat was expected.
It’s a pity for the 100,000-strong army.
"Daleha, you are also one of the military gods. I am defeated by you and I am convinced of my defeat!"
Daleha held the horse, deliberately lagged behind Li Cunxi by half a step, and said loudly:
"Of course you should be convinced!"
"This time, we have a plan to kill you, the traitorous general. We all went so far as to personally come here in armor and weapons. His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin even led a lone force deep into the enemy territory to capture Mang Sansi alive. We are in the south, merely choosing the time for the decisive battle."
"How much effort did we put into killing you?"
"Look, His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is personally riding his horse to kill the enemy!"
After hearing what Daleha said, many soldiers couldn't help but look at Li Cunxi in front of Daleha.
Li Cunxi was seen wearing blood-stained golden armor, holding a golden phoenix-wing gilded hammer, and sitting on a mixed green horse. He looked truly heroic.
On this kind of battlefield, even Li Cunxi personally took to the battlefield, so how could they not win?
"King Qin..."
Li Xiaoyi looked at Li Cunxi, and a look of loneliness appeared on his face for a moment.
"Criminal General Li Xiaoyi pays homage to His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin!"
He bowed to Li Cunxi, his tone full of apology.
This bow is sincere and without any falsehood.
Li Cunxi closed his eyes, unwilling to accept this bow. He had given Li Xiaoyi many chances, but Li Xiaoyi never seized them.
But Li Cunxi still has a question.
He opened his eyes, murderous look in his eyes: "Where is he?"
This question was asked so suddenly that many people did not react to who Li Cunxi was asking.
Only Wu Yanhao reacted instantly.
This question was actually directed at Yu Zhou, whose whereabouts were unknown.
After a brief moment of shock, Li Xiaoyi came back to his senses, sighed softly, and said:
"Wu Sansi sent someone to contact someone else."
The words were not fully explained, but Li Cunxi already understood.
Who can I contact if I want to contact someone?
Of course it was the new Khan of the Turks, the old thief Helu.
"Li Kaigu, go chop off his head, prepare it, and return it to the capital to present it to His Majesty."
Li Cunxi turned his horse and turned his back to Li Xiaoyi.
Ever since he learned of Li Xiaoyi's whereabouts, he did not hesitate to send Yuzhou to the former Prince Liang's Mansion just to rescue Li Xiaoyi.
And what did Li Xiaoyi do?
Yu Zhou had made it clear that he wanted to save him, but after going south, this guy actually worked for Wu Sansi. What kind of beast is he!
"Your Highness, Prince Qin, I will take this head off!"
Li Kaigu roared and rode his horse straight towards Li Xiaoyi.
Ever since most of his left and right Yuqian guards were killed and only less than 20,000 escaped, Li Kaigu has been thinking about revenge all the time.
Now is the time to take revenge.
The army that conquered the east was extremely united at this moment. No general rushed out to compete with Li Kaigu for the head. The sword flashed like a silver moon, and with the sound of tearing wind, it cut off Li Xiaoyi's head.
From then on, several generals and 200,000 troops under Wu Sansi's pseudo-Wu regime were officially declared annihilated.
Li Cunxi closed his eyes, feeling uncomfortable. He seldom showed his true feelings to strangers, but when he really showed his true feelings, the other party would generally fall in love with him.
Only Li Xiaoyi was an exception, and he was heartbroken!
"Grand Marshal Daleha, the last time we met was when we went to the Turks for the second time to mediate the war. I never thought that we would have the opportunity to serve in the same court in the Great Zhou."
Li Cun looked at Daleha and spoke.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the King of Qin."
Daleha saluted politely with his fists clasped together, showing great respect.
"Your Highness, the King of Qin, not only this general, but also the Crown Prince of Bakhta is now a minister of the Great Zhou."
"I know everything. We are officials in the same dynasty, so we should help each other in the future."
"In the future, Daleha is willing to follow the orders of His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin."
"Sooner or later."
The army also has to clean up the battlefield. Both sides of the battlefield must be cleaned up. If there are too many dead bodies and they pile up in one place, it will sooner or later cause an epidemic.
After assigning the soldiers under their command, Li Cunxi, Daleha, Zhang Renyuan, Fang Zhe, Li Kaigu, Song Wuji and others gathered together.
Those who can appear here are all generals or generals of an army, or princes like Wu Yanhao. They all have a high status.
Ma Rong and Qiao Tai had already run away, and took the initiative to take on the responsibility, following the thousand-man cavalry to supervise the soldiers in cleaning up the battlefield.
Li Cunxi sat in the main seat and said:
"The war has been decided. Mang Sansi has been sent to Luoyang. The next step is to station troops in the 19 prefectures of Jiangdong and wipe out the remaining forces. This is a lucrative job."
"I hope everyone can be careful when clearing out the prisoners, and not attack the common people. Just look for those noble families that haven't been cleared out yet."
"Those aristocratic families are quite wealthy."
"As long as you don't kill too hard..."
"I just pretended not to see it."
"After distributing the compensation for the dead, you will take 50% of the looted items and hand over 50% to the court. Is that okay with you?"
