About an hour later.
The infantrymen of both sides had already formed their formations!
General Geng Bingwen stood at the front, staring at the 1,000 infantry in front of him. His eyes were filled with fighting spirit.
He had been struggling in the Heavenly Peace Valley for too long and had been suppressed for too long.
Ever since he joined the army, he had never suffered such a cowardly defeat.
Now, he could finally have a fair fight with his enemy.
Although it was only a battle of a thousand people, he had the mentality of commanding tens of thousands of people to deal with it.
That's right.
He wanted to crush Zhu Xianfeng's pride in one battle and also show Geng Bingwen's prestige.
This was to prove that Geng Bingwen was not old and that his commanding ability was still outstanding.
On the other side.
Zhang Shun still had a cold appearance.
Looking at the 1,000-man army on the other side, it was as if they were looking at a dead man.
It was not because of anything else, but because the soldiers under him were brave warriors of the Breaking Ranks Camp.
In infantry combat, the Breaking Ranks were undoubtedly a miracle in history.
They had charged at the front and defeated the enemy's formation with fewer people. Their achievements were too numerous to count.
As for the 1,000 people in front of him…
It was just an ordinary sum in their battle records.
"Dong! Thump! Dong!"
As the war drums beat.
The two armies suddenly began to move.
There were no unnecessary slogans or shouts.
The two thousand people only breathed heavily as they walked forward.
Everyone's eyes were locked onto their target, waiting to chop their target to the ground when they met.
"Deng!"
Following that, the sound of dense footsteps rang out.
Two thousand infantrymen suddenly met in the yellow dust.
Encountering each other meant killing.
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
"Clang!"
The sound of weapons clashing rang out.
The infantrymen raised the long knives in their hands and attacked their opponents without caring about anything else.
If you cut me, I'll stab you!
Amidst the rising blood mist, the silent slaughter officially began.
Saber light overflowed, and weapons clanged!
This kind of face-to-face battle not only required the courage and individual strength of the infantry, but also the coordination ability of the team.
At the beginning.
The two sides were locked in battle.
However, as the battle reached its climax, the decline of the imperial court's infantry quickly became apparent.
Compared to the calmness of the warriors of the Breaking Ranks, they were, after all, in the face of danger.
The mission they carried on made them fearless.
But at the same time, it also deepened the anxiety and nervousness in their hearts.
Because…
They couldn't afford to lose, and they were afraid of losing.
Therefore…
When it came to an all-out battle, they were all extremely frantic and anxious.
Meanwhile, the warriors of the Breaking Ranks were as steady as Mount Tai, using the mentality of a cat catching a mouse to deal with the frenzy of the imperial court's army.
Seeing this scene.
Geng Bingwen was immediately worried and hurriedly shouted,"Soldiers, don't panic and make mistakes!”
However…
Even if he shouted himself hoarse, it was useless.
The 1,000 imperial court infantry were already in a state of chaos, each fighting their own battles.
"Surround the left flank and eat that wave of enemies!”
"Right wing, prepare to outflank!"
Zhang Shun commanded the warriors to fight as he fought.
As they advanced step by step.
The imperial court infantry began to retreat.
Very soon, the situation in the battlefield became clear.
The rest of the imperial court's infantry had already been crushed by the Breaking Ranks.
"In less than two hours, our troops were defeated. Why are these Qingzhou soldiers so strong?”
Looking at the scene of the army being defeated like a mountain, Geng Bingwen was both shocked and desperate.
The last glimmer of hope was destroyed.
No matter how unwilling or unconvinced he was.
They could only surrender to Zhu Xianfeng.
Because he, Geng Bingwen, didn't want to bear the infamy of 'going back on his words'.
"Old man Geng, you lost!"
"You are truly a formidable young man. I didn't expect that His Highness the Regional King's troops would be so powerful at such a young age.”
"Now that the new emperor is fatuous, the civil officials are in chaos, and the Imperial Court of Yingtian is in a precarious situation, do you want to learn from those pedantic scholars and be buried with the Jianwen Imperial Court?”
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. This old man is a man of his word. I said that if I lose and surrender to you, I will not discount it at all!”
Geng Bingwen turned around and walked towards the rear.
In the army.
Wang Ao of Shengyong and the other generals all looked like they had lost their parents.
"Generals, we have lost. I know that you are unwilling to surrender, but a man should be willing to accept defeat!”
Geng Bingwen swept his gaze across the generals and sighed.
"Sigh!"
Sheng Yong sighed and said," Old Marshal Geng, it's not that we don't want to surrender. It's just that…our families are all in Yingtian. If we surrender Wuwei Commandery Prince, won't we implicate our families?"”
"If His Highness promises to protect our families, there is no harm in surrendering him.”
Wang Ao took a step forward and suggested with a solemn expression.
"It seems that I still have to negotiate with His Highness on this matter!”
"This is not an easy task. I'm afraid that His Highness the Regional King will not agree to our request!”
"Why don't we let Your Highness come to my army and surrender before we discuss this matter in detail.”
"Mm, I agree!"
Geng Bingwen smiled bitterly at the suggestion of the generals.
However, he did not refute the generals.
Instead, he ordered the messenger to invite Zhu Xianfeng to the army for a discussion.
In his opinion, Zhu Xianfeng would definitely reject such an unreasonable request.
