As soon as Liu Che arrived in front of the army led by Zhang Ji, he didn't stop. He led his soldiers and charged forward.
The army charged forward. After a single exchange, the line of defense of Zhang Ji's soldiers was broken.
The soldiers under Liu Che's command charged forward like a hot knife through butter.
On the other hand, the soldiers led by Zhang Ji were constantly defeated. These soldiers couldn't withstand the attack at all. Especially since Gu Erha had already retreated, the remaining soldiers were the rearguard.
In other words, they were all abandoned pawns.
These soldiers knew that they had been abandoned. How could they still have the fighting spirit to resist? So, after resisting for a while, they chose to surrender. After batches of soldiers knelt down, Zhang Ji himself soon became a commander without an army.
There were only a dozen guards left beside Zhang Ji.
Liu Che led his troops to charge forward. He was now full of killing intent because he found that Gu Erha had escaped.
"Kill!"
Liu Che ordered loudly.
He led his troops to charge forward. He raised his weapon and slashed. With a single slash, the sharp blade landed on the guard's body, killing the guard in front of him in a single slash. Immediately after, Liu Che rushed forward again. With a dash, he charged in front of Zhang Ji.
"Go to hell!"
Liu Che roared.
The blade fell, slashing straight at Zhang Ji's face.
Zhang Ji raised the sword in his hand and quickly raised his hand to block.
Clang!
The weapons collided, and sparks flew everywhere.
Although Zhang Ji used to be a valiant general, he gradually neglected his training after Guer Ha became the Emperor and became the Great General of the Ming Kingdom. And because of the frequent drinking and eating, Zhang Ji's martial arts skills continued to deteriorate.
Although Zhang Ji managed to stabilize his body on the warhorse and hold onto the war blade, the impact of the collision caused Zhang Ji's arms to go numb. Even the hand that was holding onto the hilt of the blade was trembling unceasingly.
He felt intense pain.
It was very uncomfortable.
Before Zhang Ji could react, his pupils shrank. He saw the other party slashing down again.
Zhang Ji couldn't dodge in time. He could only raise his sword again to block. As he raised his sword, Liu Che's saber collided with the sword again in the blink of an eye.
Clang!
The weapons collided again.
The momentum was terrifying.
The power of the attack grew even stronger, causing Zhang Ji's hand, which was holding the saber, to hurt. His hand already felt like it was being torn apart.
Zhang Ji couldn't even sit still.
He was almost flipped over.
"Again!"
Liu Che continued to attack. He was so excited from the killing that he felt joy in his heart. The battle blade in his hand chopped down once more.
His saber was faster and stronger than the previous one. The saber slashed down at an extremely fast speed, and the attack was even more ferocious. Under the ferocious attack, coupled with the power of this saber, it was unprecedentedly tyrannical.
Zhang Ji couldn't escape from the slash. He could only grit his teeth, endure the pain in his arm, and fiercely raise his sword to counterattack.
The weapons clashed for the third time.
Zhang Ji let out a muffled groan. The sword in his hand was knocked away, and he couldn't sit still. Under the pressure of Liu Che's blade, he fell off his horse and fell to the ground, feeling dizzy from the fall.
The web between his thumb and index finger had split open and blood was flowing out. He could no longer sit still.
His entire body was on the verge of collapse.
He no longer had the strength to fight.
Liu Che dismounted from his horse, grabbed Zhang Ji, and ordered, "Take this guy down!"
Immediately, the soldiers stepped forward and quickly took Zhang Ji down.
Liu Che didn't stop. He quickly took action and led the soldiers to encircle and annihilate the remaining bandits in a short period of time, winning the battle.
Liu Che led the army back to the camp. He looked at Du Qi and reported, "Your Highness, this general is incompetent. We couldn't take down Guerha and he actually escaped. When Guerha escaped, many bandits also fled. Although we also captured one of the enemy's generals this time, the most important person escaped in the end. "
Du Qi smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. If he escaped, he escaped. Now that Gu Erha has escaped, he won't retreat immediately. Perhaps, he will continue to gather soldiers and attack us along the way. "
Liu Che said, "If that's the case, we'll destroy him."
Du Qi said, "No rush. Let's take it slow. We have enough advantage in this battle, especially now that Luo Binwang has infiltrated the Ming Nation's capital. He will also take action. "
Liu Che nodded.
Du Qi asked Liu Che to clean up the battlefield and count the damage. After arranging all these, the army was still stationed, but they didn't continue to attack for the time being.
While Du Qi's army was resting and reorganizing, Gu Erha's army finally shook off their pursuers and escaped.
At this time, Guerha finally breathed a sigh of relief.
They finally escaped.
Guerha took a deep breath and ordered the soldiers to stop advancing and rest in place for the time being. At this time, the sentries found that there were no enemies chasing behind them. After reporting to Guerha, Guerha no longer advanced but began to count the losses. After a round of counting, the generals who followed along came to report that there were now more than two thousand and three hundred men left in the army.
These were the ones who escaped.
The rest of the army was defeated.
Some of them had escaped.
When Guerha received this news, his face immediately darkened.
His emotions almost went out of control.
Too miserable!
Only two thousand men escaped. How were they going to fight? Moreover, Guerha's confrontation with Du Qi this time was actually made up for, but the tens of thousands of troops under his command were tormented until they were gone.
Guerha was a little emotional and nervous. After thinking for a long time, he made a decision.
He waited for the soldiers to rest and continued on his way.
The army didn't directly retreat to the Ming Nation, because once they returned to the capital, it meant that Du Qi could directly invade. This was something Guerha didn't want to happen.
While retreating, Guerha gathered the army.
He kept recovering his troops.
After retreating thirty miles, he temporarily set up camp. The place where Guerha set up camp was called Zhou Mountain. This location was a steep mountain road.
The mountain road was wide, but there were mountains on both sides. The army stationed on the mountain slope could guard the main road from above and control the key to this battle.
This was the reason why Guerha set up camp.
He used this to stop the army led by Du Qi.
As long as the stop was successful, everything would be easy, and the Ming Nation would not be threatened.
When Guerha set up camp with his army, the army led by Du Qi began to set off and began to move in the direction of Zhou Mountain. When Du Qi's army arrived at Zhou Mountain, Gu Erha had a nervous look on his face.
However, Guerha had been nervous for two days, but Du Qi didn't attack.
For the time being, Du Qi didn't attack at all.
He just set up camp.
Guerha was happy because if Du Qi didn't attack, then he could stop Du Qi. However, Guerha was also worried that Du Qi would play tricks.
In such a conflicted mood, Guerha still stayed at Zhou Mountain and didn't return to the capital.
