The Yue army was entangled by countless caltrops and hunted down by the lightning-fast Gan army in a whirlwind attack.
Soon everything was in complete chaos.
It was completely impossible to organize an effective counterattack.
When the Crown Prince of Yue saw this, he was so furious.
His eyes were about to burst, and he rode forward and killed several soldiers who wanted to escape.
However, his actions were completely useless.
There's no way it's going to work.
At this moment, the guards beside him hurriedly said: "Your Highness, our army has been disrupted by these four iron spikes and is completely unable to fight back."
"The situation is hopeless. Your Highness, hurry up and return to your base, reorganize your army, and fight the Gan army again in the future!"
The Crown Prince of Yue took a deep breath and looked at the Gan army charging in the distance, as well as the Yue soldiers falling one by one.
I also know that at this time, I can only retreat.
He immediately ordered a retreat.
In fact, the soldiers outside had already started to withdraw without his order.
As for this retreat, Xiao Chuyun and a group of soldiers on the Gan army side immediately knew that they had won the battle.
Immediately, a more frenzied attack on the Vietnamese army was launched.
They chased the enemy all the way from the fourth outpost a hundred miles away to its location.
The battlefield, which was over a hundred miles long, was littered with the corpses of Vietnamese soldiers.
Kill from dusk till dawn.
This battle directly destroyed the 30,000-strong army of Yue.
There were still more than 20,000 Vietnamese troops left, and they successfully retreated to their garrison.
There are still 20,000 troops whose whereabouts are unknown.
The Gan army only lost more than 2,000 people.
In the morning, when the sun rose, Xiao Chuyun, covered in blood, ordered the battlefield to be cleared.
First, take away all the soldiers' bodies, then collect all the supplies.
It was not until noon that they completely cleaned up the battlefield and returned to Mubei City with all the baggage.
Zhao Hao, who had been staying in the city, also received the news at this time.
However, the news he received was rather delayed.
All we know is that Xiao Chuyun successfully captured the fourth and fifth outposts in the first battle.
Forty thousand enemy troops were captured.
However, there was no choice but to kill the prisoners.
Seeing such a battle report, Zhao Hao was overjoyed.
This is the first step to victory.
In this way, even if there are any changes in the future, they will not be too big.
Sure enough, two days later, he received the latest battle report.
Xiao Chuyun led the army and fought a decisive battle with the 70,000-strong army of Yue State a hundred miles west of the fourth garrison.
In one battle, he defeated the 70,000-strong army of Yue.
Kill 30,000 enemies!
There were only more than 20,000 Vietnamese troops, and they successfully retreated to their garrison.
At present, the army has returned with countless baggage.
After receiving this accurate battle report, Zhao Hao was so happy that he danced with joy.
Although, he knew that Xiao Chuyun had more than an 80% chance of winning this battle.
However, when the news came back, he couldn't hide his excitement.
Immediately, he quickly called the city lord Xu Mengsong and others.
Order them to make all preparations immediately to welcome the triumphant return of the army.
Moreover, the news of this great victory was immediately spread throughout the city and informed to all the people.
When the news came out, the entire Mubei City was in an uproar.
The people rushed to tell each other this great news.
As mentioned before, from top to bottom, the people of Gan State hate the ungrateful Yue State more than the barbarians.
This time, the defeat of the Kingdom of Yue allowed the ungrateful people to see how powerful Da Gan was. How could the people not be happy?
On Zhao Hao's side, he wrote a memorial overnight and sent it back to the capital urgently.
Then they also started to get busy welcoming the army.
Five days later, the army returned.
Zhao Hao led a group of officials from Mubei, both big and small, and went out of the city thirty miles to welcome them.
After the army entered the city, both sides of the road were crowded with people.
Every citizen held food and drink in their hands, and kept giving them to the soldiers passing by.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Hao was also quite shocked.
This is probably what the scene of "a basket of food and a pot of drink" refers to.
In the evening, a grand banquet was held in the City Lord's Mansion.
A large-scale party was also held in the military camp.
Two days later, Zhao Hao's memorial was sent to the imperial capital. Jiang Wan'er was very excited when she saw the report.
An imperial decree was immediately issued, bestowing the title of Marquis Dingbei on Xiao Chuyun, which would be hereditary for generations!
This news quickly spread throughout the capital.
Upon hearing the news of Da Gan's victory, all the people in the imperial capital went into a frenzy.
Xiao Chuyun's reputation also reached its peak in an instant.
Mubei City, inside the City Lord’s Mansion.
Zhao Hao and Xiao Chuyun were still drinking.
After two days of rest, Xiao Chuyun has recovered.
Seeing that he looked troubled, Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xiao, if you have anything to say, why don't you just say it?"
Xiao Chuyun glanced at him, then stopped talking.
Zhao Hao couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, saying: "Brother Xiao, you are a god of war admired by thousands of people, why are you still hesitating?"
Hearing this, Xiao Chuyun waved his hands and said, "Brother, it's fine if others flatter you, but why do you say that?"
Zhao Hao said: "Brother Xiao, you are worthy of the title of God of War!"
Xiao Chuyun shook his head: "Brother, I have a question for you. Tell me, my contribution this time is not small, right?"
Zhao Hao nodded: "Of course, with 25,000 troops, we defeated hundreds of thousands of enemy troops and reversed the situation in one fell swoop!"
“This is a heavenly skill!”
Xiao Chuyun said, "Brother, don't say that. I know how much I have contributed."
