The terrifying impact of the heavy cavalry battalion instantly tore a large hole in the Fengtian Army cavalry's well-organized formation.
Iron hooves trampled, spears thrust, and the Fengtian army's front line was in complete disarray, with men and horses falling to the ground.
"Hold on! Hold on! Cavalry charge! Stop them!"
Li Jin was both shocked and furious, and hurriedly ordered his personal guards and elite troops to intercept them.
However, the heavy cavalry did not linger in battle. Guo Luo remembered Zhao Muyun's orders, broke through the Feng army's front line, causing great chaos, and immediately turned his horse around. Before the Feng army could encircle him, he broke away like a whirlwind and headed towards the planned retreat route.
Li Gan's troops were caught off guard by this sudden attack, their formations crumbled, and their morale plummeted.
More importantly, his plan to reap the benefits without lifting a finger completely failed, and he was instead warned by Zhao Muyun first.

The terrifying power of the thunderclap shattered the morale of the Northern Di army, and the counterattack by the infantry battalion led by Zhong Meng was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The Northern Di cavalry finally collapsed, leaving behind a large number of corpses as they scrambled to escape over the ravine.
The Hedong army took advantage of the situation to pursue and kill many prisoners.
A meticulously planned pincer attack by the allied forces was completely thwarted by the tenacious defense, sharp counterattacks, and skillful tactical maneuvers of the Hedong Army.
The Northern Di reinforcements suffered more than half their losses and fled in disarray.

The snow-covered ground of Luoying Gorge was once again littered with the corpses of enemy soldiers and congealed blood, appearing particularly poignant under the moonlight.
