Li Ruoyu's two-pronged attack had defeated the Sichuan army, killing all the warlords who had abandoned their helmets and armor and fled into Chengdu in a hurry.
However, as soon as they escaped, they began to regret it, because Li Ruoyu had already commanded the troops to cut off all their escape routes.
Although Li Ruoyu only had two armies, he had divided his forces reasonably and had surrounded all the exits of Chengdu. The Sichuan army could only retreat into the city, with no way out.
"What should we do?" "We're completely trapped now. What should we do?" Liu Cunhou shouted anxiously.”
Yang Sen wiped the sweat off his face. What did Li Ruoyu eat when he was growing up?”
Deng Xihou roared,"It's too late to say all this now. Let's think about how to escape!" As you can see, the firepower of the Gui Army is so fierce. We can't defend Chengdu at all!”
Liu Xiang roared,"If we are trapped in Chengdu, we won't be able to wait for reinforcements to arrive." The only plan now was to break out and go to Chongqing or Wanxian first.”
Everyone immediately agreed to this decision. Going to Chongqing was just the right time to meet up with Yan Feng's army.
At that time, they would kill their way back to avoid being surrounded and annihilated in Chengdu.
However, at this moment, the sound of cannons could be heard from all directions.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The cannonballs smashed into the city walls, causing the entire city to shake violently.
The Sichuan army in the city had just been defeated, and their morale was already very low.
At this moment, seeing the Gui Army begin to attack Chengdu, everyone was frightened.
The warlords looked at their cowardly subordinates and ran around like frightened birds. It was difficult for them to even defend the city, let alone break out.
Breaking out of the encirclement required courage. If one did not kill a bloody path, how could they break out of the encirclement?
But now, the Sichuan army was obviously scared by the firepower of the Gui army and had lost their courage. Asking them to break out of the encirclement was no different from a fool's dream.
"Everyone, there's no other way now. We can only fight to the death." Liu Xiang shouted anxiously. If we can hold on until reinforcements arrive, then we've won!”
" But what if we can't hold on?" Yang Sen asked.
Liu Xiang shouted,"That means that the heavens want to destroy our Sichuan Army. At that time, everyone can only follow the will of heaven and surrender!"”
Everyone stopped talking and nodded silently. Then, they went to command their troops and did their last thing.
Outside Chengdu, Li Ruoyu watched as artillery bombarded the city.
The Land of Abundance had already been blasted into black smoke.
He frowned slightly," Send my order. Yu Xiao Qing's 1st regiment and Long Wen Zhang's 2nd regiment will attack immediately.”
"Commander, aren't we going to blow it up?" asked an advisor curiously.”
Li Ruoyu shook his head." I need money and food from Sichuan to supply us. Chengdu is the land of abundance." Why would I want to come here if this place was blown into ruins? Carry out the order!"
A moment later, the 1st and 2nd regiments attacked from two different directions.
The wolf head flag of the Gui Army fluttered in the smoke. Long Wenzhang and Yu Xiaoqing personally led the troops to charge.
At this time, Chengdu had been completely bombarded by artillery fire. The wolf soldiers let out deafening roars and charged at Chengdu with thunderous explosions.
"Gui Jun is here, Gui Jun is here!" When the Sichuan soldiers saw the wolf-like Gui soldiers charging forward, they were so scared that they did not even have the courage to resist. They turned around and fled into the city.
It wasn't that the Sichuan Army couldn't fight, but for the ordinary soldiers, it was not worth it to fight and die with the Gui Army.
They were all Chinese. At most, they could surrender. Why make things difficult for each other?
This was not only the idea of the Sichuan Army. Even the Gui Army in the past had the same idea. As long as they could not win, they would surrender or escape. This was also why Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi were beaten back to Guangxi by Old Jiang.
However, the ones charging now were Li Ruoyu's Seventh Steel Army.
They had firm beliefs and lofty ideals of unifying the country and ending the civil strife.
Once they had ideals and beliefs, coupled with the courage of the wolf soldiers themselves, they would not be able to do anything.
At this moment, not only were they fearless, but they were also invincible.
In less than 20 minutes, the two brigades had created several gaps, and the troops flooded into Chengdu like a tide.
Li Ruoyu jumped into the car and shouted,"Inform all the troops. I'm going to Chengdu now." It's my Eight Osmanthus Wolf Soldiers. Charge with me.”
Li Ruoyu's adjutant stepped on the accelerator without hesitation, and the car sped off.
The Commander-in-Chief had already rushed out. The 7th and 32nd divisions seemed to have been injected with chicken blood. The soldiers roared and rushed towards Chengdu.
Liu Xiang stood at a high place, looking at the Gui Army that was charging towards them from all directions with despair in his eyes.
He turned around and saw the Sichuan soldiers running around the city.
There was no need to fight. The outcome had already been decided.
"Sir, the Gui Army, the Gui Army's main force is charging into the city.”"General Liu Cunhou has surrendered with his troops!" the adjutant shouted as he rushed over.”
"Li Ruoyu is really a dragon and phoenix among men!" Liu Xiang sighed deeply. He only used two armies to wipe out 200,000 of our Sichuan Army. I can't wait!"
He sighed and said,"Order the troops and equipment to surrender." Our Sichuan Army. I lost!"
