The ninth son of the emperor was demoted at the beginning. I have a famous Chinese general.
Chapter 129 Time to Counterattack
On the other side, the battle in Hulun City also entered a fierce stage.
Li Xin attacked the city wall several times, but was repelled by the defenders several times.
"Protector General, the enemy's strength seems off."
Suddenly, a deputy general beside him said in a low voice.
"Yeah, I noticed that too, but so what? How many reserves do they have?"
"You also go up to reinforce, and bring my personal soldiers with you."
"Success or failure depends on this one move. We must take down Hulan in this battle."
Li Chenglin gritted his teeth and said.
"Yes, I obey your command."
The deputy general saluted with his fists and immediately led five hundred personal soldiers to attack.
These five hundred personal soldiers are Li Chenglin's most elite subordinates. Each of them is brave and experienced in fighting.
By sending them up, Li Chenglin also intended to make a last-ditch effort.
If we can capture Hulan, then everything will be easy.
If he fails to take it, then he and Beiting will be finished.
"Haha, it seems that Li Chenglin is going to go all out."
Seeing that Li Chenglin had sent out all his personal soldiers, Li Jing showed a hint of sarcasm.
"General, it's time to take action. General Xiang is under a lot of pressure."
Guan Yu reminded from the side.
"Hmph, send the signal and prepare to attack as well."
Li Jing nodded slightly and then gave the order.
Whoosh...
Soon, several fireworks rose into the sky, bursting into brilliant flames.
Rumble…
As the fireworks soared into the sky, a deafening roar suddenly came from the distance, shaking the earth.
Immediately afterwards, 20,000 iron cavalry appeared in a mighty force, like a landslide and tsunami.
It was the cavalry led by Huo Qubing and Lu Bu.
They traveled thousands of miles back from Donghu.
"What? How could this happen?"
Seeing the sudden appearance of the cavalry, Li Chenglin's pupils contracted and his face changed drastically.
Li Chenglin was not without guard against the Hulun cavalry. He now had 5,000 cavalry with him just in case.
But he never expected that there were so many Hulun cavalry.
At this moment, Li Chenglin finally understood.
The enemy troops from the Xiongnu camp were not sent to rescue Hulan, but to deliberately lead Qu Gaoyi's cavalry away.
It was all a trap, and he fell for it.
"retreat!"
Realizing that he had made a mistake, Li Chenglin made a prompt decision to withdraw his troops.
Unfortunately, I only understand it now, but it’s too late.
Boom boom boom...
Twenty thousand cavalrymen rushed in like a tide, and in a blink of an eye they overwhelmed the Beiting army that was attacking the city.
Puff puff……
Under the trampling of horse hooves, blood splattered and flesh flew everywhere.
The 5,000 Anxi cavalrymen who stayed behind also did not escape the disaster. Before they could move, they were caught off guard and killed by another cavalry force that suddenly appeared from behind.
This cavalry was actually the surrendered Huyan cavalry.
Under the coercion and inducement of Huo Qubing, they finally surrendered to Hulan and became part of Hulan.
Faced with the sudden attack of tens of thousands of Huyan cavalry, the Anxi cavalry was quickly defeated and suffered heavy casualties.
In just half an incense stick of time, 5,000 Anxi cavalry were slaughtered.
At the same time, the gates of Hulun City were also wide open.
Three thousand soldiers, led by Guan Yu, swarmed out and joined the ranks of strangling the Beiting army.
Faced with attacks from multiple directions, the Beiting army was unable to withstand it.
Soon they were completely defeated, and the soldiers either died in battle or knelt in surrender.
Seeing that the situation was hopeless, Li Chenglin had no choice but to flee in a panic with only a dozen or so remaining soldiers, leaving even his son behind.
Li Xin had no time to escape and was captured by Li Jing himself.
"General Huo, quickly rescue General Xiang. General Lu, go after Li Chenglin."
"General Guan, gather the prisoners and clear the battlefield."
As soon as the battle ended, Li Jing quickly issued orders.
Xiang Yu had only 5,000 soldiers to fight against Qu Gaoyi's 10,000 cavalrymen, and the situation was extremely dangerous.
Therefore, Li Jing did not dare to delay at all and immediately ordered Huo Qubing to go to the rescue.
"promise!"
Huo Qubing and others responded and then acted separately.
..........
At this moment, the battle in the Hun camp was still going on.
Qu Gaoyi led his troops in a desperate attack, but faced with Xiang Yu's tight defense, his attack was never successful and instead resulted in the loss of many of his men.
This made Qu Gaoyi very angry.
"General, look behind you."
Suddenly, a lieutenant pointed in the direction of Hulan.
Hearing this, Qu Gaoyi frowned and turned to look behind him.
Suddenly, tens of thousands of cavalrymen came charging towards them in a mighty force.
"Oh no, it's the Hulan Cavalry!"
"Get out, get out."
Seeing this scene, Qu Gaoyi's face changed drastically and he hurriedly ordered a retreat.
The appearance of so many cavalrymen made Qu Gaoyi immediately realize that Li Chenglin must have been defeated.
Although he was very confused as to how Hulan could have so many cavalrymen.
But now is obviously not the time to think about this.
He had to take the remaining cavalry away, otherwise his entire army would be wiped out.
Immediately, Qu Gaoyi led the remaining cavalry to retreat in panic.
Huo Qubing led his cavalry in hot pursuit, chasing them for more than thirty miles before stopping.
At this time, Qu Gaoyi's troops had less than 8,000 people.
Of the 30,000 cavalrymen who set out, only 8,000 remain, a total loss of more than 20,000.
This number is close to half of the total number of Anxi cavalry.
No one can afford such a huge loss.
Qu Gaoyi could imagine the scene of Fang Xiaolian becoming furious when he found out.
On the other hand, Li Chenglin was lucky.
Lu Bu chased him for more than a hundred miles but found no trace of him, so he had to return in disappointment.
But it doesn't matter.
After this battle, Beiting was like meat on Hulan's chopping board, and could only be slaughtered at will.
…………
"General, the battle results have been counted."
More than half an hour later, a captain ran up to Li Jing and said respectfully.
"speak."
Li Jing said indifferently.
"General, in this battle, our army annihilated 13,000 Anxi troops and captured 5,000. We also annihilated 11,000 Beiting troops and captured 8,000."
"In addition, our army had 3,000 killed and 6,000 wounded."
"Well, give the order to treat the wounded immediately."
"Whether they are our soldiers, the Anxi Army, or the Beiting Army, they must all be properly treated."
"All prisoners were escorted to the Xiongnu camp and temporarily kept under guard."
"Order all the generals to come to the county government office immediately to discuss matters."
Li Jing nodded and gave the order.
This battle is not over yet, and it will only be considered a success after completely taking over Beiting.
Not only Beiting, but also the Huyan tribe must be wiped out as soon as possible.
"As ordered!"
The captain responded and immediately went down to convey the order.
Soon after, all the generals gathered in the county government office.
"Meet the General!"
All the generals bowed to Li Jing in unison.
"Well, everyone, sit down."
"Generals, although we have won this battle, the battle is not over yet."
"Beiting a crushing defeat, this is the perfect opportunity for us to take it down in one fell swoop."
"So we can't rest now. We must strike while the iron is hot and take Beiting in one fell swoop."
Li Jing said in a deep voice.
"I will obey your orders!"
Hearing Li Jing's words, all the generals showed excitement.
"Well, I'll give the orders."
"General Lu, General Guan, you two will each lead 5,000 Donghu cavalry and 5,000 Huyan cavalry. Set out tomorrow morning and strive to pacify the entire Beiting territory within a month."
"General Xiang, you will lead 15,000 infantry and 5,000 cavalry. We will also set out tomorrow morning to attack Changhe City."
