At night, Yu Changming led the remaining troops to retreat to Lianghe Town.
There was a river behind them, and Yu Changming and others had nowhere to retreat.
According to the original plan, they were to retreat to Jinkang County.
But Xiahou Jing sent troops to block their way, and the Jinkang County army was nowhere to be seen.
Helplessly, Yu Changming had to retreat south, but they had no boat to cross the river.
In addition, Xie Wenzhou's army had surrounded them.
The cold wind kept blowing on Yu Changming's face, making him extremely sober at the moment.
"My lord... Changming has failed to live up to your trust. It seems I am destined to die here." Yu Changming wailed and prepared to fight to the death.
"Yu Changming, do you still remember who I am?" The enemy commander appeared, and Yu Changming recognized him. He was Ming Zishi, whom he looked down upon.
The only people he looked up to were Le and Qi. As for Ming Zishi, he admired his courage, but he also thought that he was just an ordinary man.
"Ming Zishi, why do you want to betray the alliance?" Yu Changming stood up and asked on behalf of Ding Yunyi's forces.
"When I was demanding Xiangbei earlier, you were so arrogant!" Ming Zishi sneered, "Your lord has repeatedly ignored our opinions. I dare to ask, have you ever considered us an ally?"
"If you just want to ask for the northern part of Xiangzhou, why use such despicable means! Wait until your brother takes Longzhou, and we will give it to you!" Yu Changming responded.
"You are still playing this trick. Do you really think I am a three-year-old child?" Ming Zishi shook his head.
"Since you won't give it to me, don't blame me for being ruthless!"
"In order to make you relax your guard, I voluntarily refused the position of commander-in-chief and led you out of the city."
"Now I've finally achieved something... This general will take your head as a tribute to the spirits of the two commanders in heaven!"
"Soldiers, forward!"
After Ming Zishi gave the order, the soldiers surrounded the remaining soldiers.
"Soldiers, protect General Yu and fight until the last moment!" Although Liang Changji was a civil official, he also had a heart that would not surrender to the enemy.
"Fight until the last moment!" Those following Yu Changming were all old soldiers who had followed him for a long time and were loyal to him.
The two armies fought again, and the result was naturally obvious. Some on Yu Changming's side died, some were injured, and in the end only Yu Changming, the strongest fighter, was still standing.
"That's right, Yu Changming, but even if you are the Overlord of Xianglin, you will die at the hands of our army today!" Ming Zishi shouted, ordering his soldiers to attack again.
Zhang Pan brandished his spear and together with another general Zhong De, he restrained Yu Changming.
Yu Changming glared with anger and tried his best to kill and injure enemy soldiers.
But his strength was limited and Yu Changming finally had no more strength to support himself.
"My lord... I will go first." Yu Changming closed his eyes and waited for death.
At this moment, a mist suddenly emerged from the crowd, choking everyone.
"What's going on!" Ming Zishi was shocked.
"Report to the general, there are enemy troops attacking on the river! It seems to be Chen Yunxuan from the south!" the soldier shouted.
"What? Didn't they lead their troops to Jiaozhou?" Ming Zishi couldn't believe it, but after a moment he regained his composure: "Don't worry about them, just kill Yu Changming first!"
However, Yu Changming and others had been rescued by a group of men in black, while the soldiers surrounding Yu Changming lay on the ground in pain, unable to move.
"Who are you? Why are you ruining our army's good fortune?" Ming Zishi led his troops forward and said with a gloomy face.
Xiaojiu took off his mask and introduced himself: "My name is Bai Wujiu, and I am the commander of the assassination team under the governor of Xiangzhou!"
"I advise you to lay down your weapons! Don't be so stubborn. Our lieutenant may spare your life!"
"Biejia?" Ming Zishi searched his mind and remembered Lin Tongxi who held this position.
Before Ming Zishi could reply, Lin Tongxi, holding a loud speaker, urged them to surrender from the boat: "Soldiers of Xie Wenzhou, I am Deputy Commander Lin Tongxi. Considering that we were once allies, please quickly lay down your weapons and surrender, otherwise don't blame us for being rude!"
"Don't dream of reinforcements coming to your aid. Your Governor Yan has already been repelled by us."
"If you don't surrender now, you won't even be able to return home!"
Ji Xushi came near Ming Zishi and asked quietly, "General, what should we do?"
"...Don't believe his lies! Kill Yu Changming first, otherwise this battle will be in vain. How can you and I explain to our lord?" Ming Zishi then ordered to continue fighting.
"Alas... it's hard to persuade a suicidal person with good words. Soldiers, attack!" Lin Tongxi snapped his fingers and launched the attack.
Chen Yunxuan's army was strong and quickly defeated Xie Wenzhou's army.
When Ming Zishi left Xiangjiang County and led his troops to attack Yu Changming, Chen Yunxuan decisively led the army to attack.
Yue Lingyun quickly captured Yunmeng County and split up Xie Wenzhou's army.
Chen Yunxuan led Wang Shenghan and Zhang Yanwu to attack Xiangjiang County, while Wei Zhaoshan went to capture Nanyi County.
As for Lin Tongxi and Xiaojiu, they rushed to help Yu Changming and finally arrived before Yu Changming was killed.
Lin Tongxi walked forward to check on Yu Changming's condition.
"Ahem... Thank you, Lord Lin." Yu Changming said while enduring the pain.
"This is the duty of allies. General, please concentrate on recuperating and leave this matter to us." Lin Tongxi replied.
When Lin Tongxi upgraded to version 8.0, Lin Tongxi unlocked a new section [Ranking].
In the [Ranking], the combat power column shows that Yu Changming is the strongest person today.
Just now, Yu Changming had broken through to the Martial Saint realm.
It’s a pity that Yu Changming was seriously injured and I’m afraid he will never be able to fight again.
