Chapter 178
Liu Zhi's eyes were in a daze, and he glanced at the soldiers who had accompanied him in the war for many years.
General Wang Quan once told him that if you want your soldiers to follow you wholeheartedly, you must treat them well.
Therefore, he treats his soldiers as brothers. After so many years, he has developed feelings for these people. Especially his personal guards, they are all brothers of life and death in his heart.
If we continue to fight like this, we will only be making meaningless sacrifices.
He didn't want the soldiers under his command to die like this. However, he failed like this, and he felt sorry for General Wang Quan.
Song Ruhe was still content with the talks, waiting for Liu Zhi to make a choice.
After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind.
"Song Ru, Tan Gan, you take my army and withdraw."
After saying that, he took a deep breath. Holding the sword in one hand, he stared at the sword's edge on the field fiercely.
Song Ru and Tan Gan realized something was wrong and hurriedly stopped them:
"Liu Zhi, come back!"
But it was too late. Although Liu Zhi lost an arm, his speed did not slow down at all.
"Jianfeng, suffer death!"
Jianfeng reacted quickly and blocked it with his spear, then raised it and stabbed Liu Zhi again, causing Liu Zhi to sit down on the ground.
If he had two hands, he might be able to fight Jianfeng twenty or thirty times. But he only had one hand, and his strength and balance were far less than before, and he couldn't even sustain three moves.
"You actually sent one of your men to defeat the future. Why, you have no one left in Daliang?"
Jianfeng did not step forward and directly took his life, as if he did not bother to kill an injured challenger. Or perhaps, he admires Liu Zhi's spirit of not being afraid of death.
"Go ahead and send someone with sound hands and feet."
However, Liu Zhi didn't appreciate it. He stood up tremblingly and launched another attack.
This time, he didn't even survive a single move, and was knocked down by the sword's edge. He lay on the ground uncertain whether he was alive or dead.
"No one in Daliang dares to challenge?"
Jianfeng held a spear in his hand and glanced across the battlefield, finally looking at Tan Gan and Song Ru.
"All troops, retreat!"
Tan Gan's loud voice spread throughout the battlefield.
"Withdrawal."
Among the troops of Daliang Kingdom, some people secretly rejoiced, some were stunned, and some were in disbelief.
"Touch! Touch! Touch!"
The sounds of weapons being thrown sounded and became more frequent. The army of Liang Kingdom has long lost its will to fight. Many people threw off their helmets and armor and quickly ran towards the city gate. Of course, most veterans know that weapons are the most reliable reliance on the battlefield. They held weapons and formed a simple formation, gradually fading towards the outside.
The Qingzhou Army breathed a sigh of relief as they looked at the fleeing enemies, their eyes filled with the joy of victory.
"Win...we won!"
A veteran shouted excitedly.
Thirty thousand people fought against [-] people, and they won in the end!
Looking at the sword standing in the center of the battlefield like a god of war, their eyes revealed admiration.
General Jianfeng, who killed five generals in one battle. Such achievements have never been achieved by anyone in Daqian Kingdom.
Of course, no one has forgotten that there is a counselor named Lin Xiaofan who is making suggestions behind the scenes. If it weren't for him, Qingzhou would have fallen long ago, let alone the subsequent victory.
At this time, Lin Xiaofan and Jian Bai came back with their troops.
"solved?"
Jianfeng saw a few people, came on horseback, and said with a smile.
"Wang Quan is probably dead, and Cheng Huan also committed suicide. In this battle, more than [-] enemies were killed."
Jian Bai spoke, with uncontrollable pride in his eyes. Although it mainly relies on Lin Xiaofan, he can also get some light.
Lin Xiaofan also nodded, but he was a little absent-minded. He seemed to be still thinking about whether it was right to use the technology from his previous life to deal with these soldiers.
"Brother Lin, you have made great achievements this time. If it weren't for you at the celebration banquet, I wouldn't dare to use my chopsticks!"
Jianfeng noticed that Lin Xiaofan was not in a high mood and started teasing him.
"Brother Feng, you deserve the prize. I just made some plans, and I'm nowhere near as good as you."
Lin Xiaofan quickly waved his hand.
"Brother Lin, please stop being modest. Jian Bai told me that the deaths of the two generals of the coalition this time were all thanks to the new weapons you developed. You deserve the most credit for this battle!"
Jianfeng patted Lin Xiaofan's shoulder hard.
"Everyone, please give way and let our great hero go back and rest first."
Jianfeng spoke loudly, allowing the surrounding Qingzhou Army to hear.
"Brother Feng, you shouldn't deserve it."
Lin Xiaofan hurriedly spoke.
When the surrounding soldiers saw Lin Xiaofan's appearance, they suddenly became interested and all gave way.
"Hero, go back and rest quickly."
"Hero, please!"
Several veterans opened their mouths and stepped out of the way in a decent manner, making Lin Xiaofan feel a little embarrassed.
After Jianfeng's interference, Lin Xiaofan's mood improved a lot, he was not so depressed, and he helped deal with the remaining things.
After being busy until late at night, I finally had some free time to rest.
"Brother Lin, congratulations, you have made another great contribution."
Fengsheng came over at some point and patted Lin Xiaofan on the shoulder.
Seeing the people coming, Lin Xiaofan also smiled slightly and said:
"Brother Fengsheng is both civil and military, has a distinguished family background, and has made great contributions. I think the emperor will give you a high-ranking official title."
"Official?"
Fengsheng chuckled, as if he had heard something funny.
Lin Xiaofan was a little confused. In his opinion, as long as a young master from a big family like Fengsheng has made meritorious service, wouldn't it be easy for a high-ranking official?
Moreover, Fengsheng's ability is not weak and he is completely worthy of it.
"It would be great if the emperor could reward me with some money after I go back. If I'm not lucky, my family may even erase the achievements I've made."
Fengsheng spoke, with some frustration in his eyes.
Erase your achievements?
Lin Xiaofan frowned, not quite understanding. For people from such a big family, if a disciple in the family has made meritorious deeds, wouldn't they publicize it in a big way and help him win high-ranking officials so that he can become a big help to the family in the future? Why would you take the initiative to erase your achievements?
But seeing Fengsheng's depressed look, Lin Xiaofan didn't know how to comfort him.
After a while, Fengsheng was the first to change the topic.
"Brother Lin, let's not talk about this anymore. After this war is over, you have to have a good drink with me."
Fengsheng said with a smile. Although they have won now, there are still many funeral matters to deal with, and they must be wary of the other party's rework at any time, and there must be no celebration banquet.
"Okay, when I get the chance, I will definitely go to the capital to have a drink with Brother Feng!"
Lin Xiaofan laughed happily. The war was finally over, and he still felt like he was in a dream.
Lin Xiaofan was walking on the way back to the house. He was probably too tired. The cold weather tonight was extremely cold. A spark floated in front of him, causing his thoughts to wander with it.
Participating in this battle benefited him a lot.
First, psychologically, after seeing tens of thousands of people fighting each other and seeing the sea of corpses, his mood was calmer and calmer than before. After returning to the city, even if he faced assassination again, it would be just a small fight for him.
Second, in terms of personal connections, during this battle, he met many military generals, many of whom came from famous families. For example, the Zhao family where General Zhao Yue lives is on an equal footing with the Jian family in the capital. And the Jiang family where Jiang Li belongs is a famous family in Qingzhou.
With these connections, the road ahead will be much easier.
Third, in terms of prestige, almost everyone in the Qingzhou Army today knows of his existence.
Fourth, in terms of knowledge, through this battle, he has a better understanding of the military strength of this world. No one in this world has invented large-scale weapons such as catapults and melee weapons such as hooks and sickles.
