Li Xiucheng bathed and changed clothes, wearing a yellow robe, holding a Taiping Essentials cloak and ascending to the altar.
First, the big drum was sounded with the ritual of Taiping Road, which attracted the attention of more than 40,000 Taiping troops on the hillside, and when they knelt on the ground regardless of the constraints of the Guishan army, bowed and worshipped, they loudly displayed their tactics to attack the heart: "I am a great sage and a good teacher possessed by the Holy Prince's general, and I have come to tell you and others that Huang Tian is dead, and the Han should be prosperous."
All the believers should rein in the precipice, wake up, and serve the Han from now on, and expel the barbarians."
"Shoot this demagogue to death" After Wang Ben got the report, he hurriedly brought his own soldiers to inspect, only to see Li Xiucheng pretending to be a ghost with his head, and persuading the Taiping army to defect in the name of a great virtuous teacher, he was immediately furious, waved his hand and ordered a random arrow to be fired.
"Whoosh" With Wang Ben's order, thousands of crossbowmen gathered together and fired arrows at Li Xiucheng under the hillside, pouring down like a ball of flying locusts.
The height of this hillside is only 100 zhang, and in the face of the dense rain of arrows, Li Xiucheng couldn't dodge, and was shot into a hedgehog when he landed, and he was killed on the spot with a scream.
"Arise, give me all of them, and behead all those who kneel on the ground."
Wang Ben roared hysterically, drew his sword in his hand, and cut off the heads of four or five Taiping Dao believers around him in succession.
"Kill, let you kowtow to the great sage and good teacher, now die" Under the leadership of Wang Ben, one hundred and ten Guishuang executioners raised their butcher knives one after another and slashed down at the Taiping soldiers kneeling on the ground.
"These invaders have shot the great sage and killed so many of our brothers, how can we help us to abuse us and we must follow the words of the great sage and good teacher, rein in the precipice, serve the great man, and drive out the barbarians" In the chaotic crowd, I don't know who shouted first, like an initiation, which suddenly provoked more than 40,000 Taiping Taoist believers to wake up from a dream, and they all drew their swords in their hands and shouted: "Drive out the barbarians and avenge the great sage and good teacher" In an instant, the shouts of the Taiping army ignited the entire mountain in an instant like a fire of the prairie fire, and more than 40,000 Taiping soldiers got up from the ground, raised their weapons in their hands, roared and pounced on the Guishan army, and started a desperate struggle.
"Haha Sun Qing's strategy has worked, the Taiping army has defected" Liu Wei laughed loudly at the foot of the mountain, and ordered the whole army to attack, taking the opportunity to kill the hillside and eliminate the more than 40,000 Guishan soldiers led by Wang Ben.
"Kill, all charge" The emperor personally supervised the battle, more than 70,000 Han troops were all high-spirited and energetic, under the leadership of Mu Guiying, Xu Huang, Su Lie, Hannibal, Joan of Arc, Fan Lihua, Yuwen Chengdu, Shang Shitu and other fierce generals, they poured up the hillside in all directions, and cooperated with the Taiping army who were about to defect to encircle and suppress the desperate Kushan soldiers.
In the chaotic army, Qi Guoyuan was particularly conspicuous, carrying a pair of sledgehammers quietly made in private, showing off his martial arts on the battlefield, babbling, looking invincible in the world.
But Qi Guoyuan also knew that his sledgehammer was useless, so he just bluffed and shouted and intimidated, and there was no real knife and gun to pull the sledgehammer out from beginning to end.
It was also his luck that the Guishan soldiers, who had a broken military heart, saw the pair of water tank-like sledgehammers in Qi Guoyuan's hands and were immediately frightened, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, where is there still the courage to fight.
"Hey, this general is amazing."
Yuwen Chengdu rushed left and right in the chaos of the army, there was no enemy in front of the horse, and the phoenix wings and gold hammer beheaded countless people everywhere they went.
But when he saw the pair of giant hammers in Qi Guoyuan's hand, he couldn't help but be startled, "These hammers are a lot bigger than Li Yuanba, it seems that he is the first fierce general of the Han Dynasty."
Xu Huang, Su Lie and others were shocked when they caught a glimpse of Qi Guoyuan's sledgehammer in the chaotic army, and secretly speculated in their hearts: "Oh, this Captain Qi really quietly made a pair of sledgehammers, just looking at this appearance, I'm afraid it weighs six or seven hundred catties."
All the generals cast surprised and shocked eyes, which made Qi Guo Ocean proud, and secretly muttered in his heart Is Qi Ye so majestic, I am still because of the lack of materials, which makes the size of the hammer much smaller, and the pair of sledgehammers thrown to Ruan Weng Zhong are scary Liu Wei couldn't help laughing when he saw it at the bottom of the hillside, he naturally knew Qi Guoyuan's tricks, but since Qi Guoyuan's sledgehammer could surrender without a fight, he would keep it a secret and let him be in the limelight Under the charge led by the eight fierce generals of the Han army, the Guishan army was defeated like a mountain, corpses were everywhere, blood flowed like a river, and even the water of the Yu River was slowly dyed red.
"The general jumped into the water and ran for his life" Wang Ben's personal soldiers escorted Wang Ben to retreat towards the Yu River, and jumped into the icy river water one after another.
The unlucky ones were swept downstream by the turbulent current, and the Kushan soldiers who were holding planks in their arms took off their armor, swam lightly, and protected Wang Ben to swim across the river, which was more than 200 zhang wide.
After some struggle, he finally arrived on the other side without danger, Wang Ben struggled out of the water like a chicken in soup, looking back left and right, only hundreds of people followed him.
At the moment, he didn't care about his sorrow, and ran westward along the dry reeds by the river, but it was important to save his life first.
After walking only four or five miles, the reeds suddenly stabbed with hooks and sickles, and instantly assassinated more than half of Wang Ben's hundreds of personal soldiers, Ma Zhong shouted, and led five thousand Han soldiers who had been in ambush for a long time to rush up and trap Wang Ben in the center.
"I only have a decapitated person in Daqin, and there is no general who survives" Seeing that there was no way to escape, Wang Ben shouted, drew his sword in his hand, and wanted to kill himself on the spot.
Ma Zhong was quick-eyed, and personally threw out a special fishing net specially used to catch people, and suddenly covered Wang Ben inside: "Hehe, my Ma Zhong's subordinates just don't want to die."
Wang Ben was caught off guard and was covered by his head, and the sword he had just raised could no longer use his strength, and was shouted by Ma Zhong, and more than a dozen Han soldiers used force at the same time, and immediately tied up the general who helped Ying Zhengjian destroy the Six Kingdoms, and could no longer move.
"Haha is another great achievement, the brothers escorted me back to ask Your Majesty for merit and reward" Ma Zhong successfully captured Wang Ben, drank and ordered his subordinates to be tied up, and then crossed the Yu River to ask for a reward from the Son of Heaven.
After the defection of the Taiping army, the strength of the Han army against the Kushan army became 120,000 to 40,000, occupying an absolute advantage.
In addition, there are top generals such as Yuwen Chengdu, Xu Huang, and Hannibal who pressed the formation, and it took an hour to complete the abuse of the Guishan army.
At the end of the battle, the number of casualties of the Han army was only about 2,000, while the Guishan army was killed and drowned more than 25,000 people, and more than 15,000 people were captured, including the main general Wang Ben, the whole army was wiped out, and no one escaped.
Liu Wei reined in the reins on the edge of the Yu River, and the spring breeze was proud: "Haha great, all the 100,000 people led by Wang Ben were annihilated, and then the whole army rushed to the west, and met Wu Qi, Zhuge Liang, Sun Wu and others to annihilate the 230,000 horses led by Meng Tian and Zhou Yu, so that this great victory will be famous in history and shine in the annals of history."
"Long live my emperor, long live, long live" The first encirclement and suppression battle ended successfully, the Han army annihilated 100,000 horses led by Wang Ben at the cost of 5,000 people, including the main general Wang Ben and the pioneer Pei Yuanqing, none of them escaped, Liu Wei's way of using troops deeply convinced the Han army soldiers, and they raised their weapons and shouted long live.
After a while, Ma Zhong escorted Wang Ben, who was tied up with five flowers, to see Liu Wei: "Your Majesty, Wang Ben is escorted to you."
Liu Wei looked Wang Ben up and down, only to see that he had thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, a heroic face, worthy of the famous generals of the Qin State, and persuaded loudly: "Wang Ben, I heard that you are a descendant of Yan and Huang, if you are willing to repent and return to the Han, I will pardon you for your innocence."
"I can't be killed, but not humiliated" Wang Ben looked stubborn, "Although they are all descendants of Yan and Huang, I am a descendant of Great Qin, and I don't share the sky with you rebellious ministers and thieves, and it is a fool's dream to ask me to surrender."
Liu Wei has always respected the man who stands up to the sky, and humiliating the captive is not the husband's doing, so he thought about it for a while, waved his hand and ordered: "Push it down to fulfill its name" "Thank you for your death" Wang Ben bowed his head to Liu Wei and walked out of the imperial tent without even blinking his eyes.
A moment later, the knife and axe hand held Wang Ben's head on a wooden plate and presented it: "Your Majesty, Guishan General Wang Ben has been awarded the head."
Liu Wei waved his hand: "Order Su Lie and Hannibal to lead 30,000 horses as the front army, pick Wang Ben's head to intercept Meng Tian's retreat, and attack Zhuge Liang and Wu Qi back and forth."
After Su Lie left, Liu Wei ordered Shang Shifu, Yuwen Chengdu, Zhende, Fan Lihua and others to lead 10,000 horses to follow Su Lie's footsteps to the west, and Wu Qi, Zhuge Liang, Sun Wu and other troops surrounded the main force of Guishan led by Meng Tian from all directions, striving to end the battle perfectly.
The generals took their own orders and left, leaving Xu Huang, Qi Guoyuan, and Meng Liang to lead 10,000 horses to prison the captured Guishan army.
The Taiping army had been incorporated into the army to be used as cannon fodder, but there were more than 15,000 Guishan soldiers who were captured, and it was full of unstable factors before the more than 200,000 horses led by Meng Tian were annihilated.
As soon as Liu Wei had an idea, he immediately sent a message to Wu Qi asking how to deal with this large number of captives However, after half a day's effort, Wu Qi's letter was transmitted back by the soaring carrier pigeon: "If it is not my race, its heart will be different, the overall situation is undecided, and those who have achieved great things must not have the benevolence of women, please Your Majesty pit and kill these barbarians to set an example."
Liu Wei immediately showed Wu Qi's letter to Mu Guiying, Sun Bin, Wen Yang, Xu Huang and other civil and military officials: "General Wu Qi persuaded me to kill this group of barbarians, what do you think?"

Liu Bian's purpose in doing this is, of course, to stimulate Wu Qi's "self-ink" attribute and improve his four-dimensionality, anyway, Wu Qi doesn't care much about reputation, and Liu Bian is happy to give him an assist.
But Sun Bin stood up and objected: "Your Majesty's overall situation has not yet been settled, and there are still more than 200,000 people in the Guishan army, if the Guishan people are killed now, the men and horses led by Meng Tian will definitely fight the trapped beasts, and the casualties of our army will increase greatly."
Therefore, Wei Chen secretly thought that not only could he not kill them for the time being, but also treated them preferentially and broke the fighting spirit of the main force of Guishan led by Meng Tian." t1706231537:
