Chapter 250: A miserable defeat!
Wu Cheng clasped his fists: "Generals, there is no need to do this. We are all soldiers of the Great Wei, and we are all friendly forces. We are defending our country and our territory. It is our duty to help each other kill the enemy."
"General, you are righteous. We are taught by you!"
"By the way, where is His Majesty King Shengwu?"
A Zhendong Army general asked.
"Our general is on his way with the follow-up army and will arrive soon." Shangguan Shuo replied.
"I'll trouble you to deal with these corpses. We will go to the east to help chase and kill the Dali enemy."
"Okay!"
The Zhendong Army general nodded.
Wu Cheng and others are all cavalry, with fast speed, and it is most suitable to chase the enemy.
After strangling the Dali enemy west of Tianmen Pass, Wu Cheng and others did not stop attacking. They passed through the Tianmen Pass city and went east to chase the Dali enemy.
The Zhendong Army soldiers in the city looked at such a terrifying iron cavalry and thought to themselves that it was fortunate that this was their Great Wei army.
If this is the enemy's army, how terrible it would be.
The iron-blooded cavalry, mighty and powerful, with a fearless spirit, deeply shocked the soldiers of the Zhendong Army.
Seeing the army being chased, Wen Renli wanted to leave the battle and lead the army to retreat.
"You bastard, if you want to leave, ask your grandfather Cheng if you have the axe in his hand!" Cheng Bufa raised the axe and chopped at Wen Renli desperately.
Gao Chongyuan also took action and tried his best to stop Wen Renli.
At this moment, the battlefield was reversed, and the balance of victory was tilted towards them. Naturally, they had to hold back the great master of Dali.
Give the army a chance to chase and kill the enemy.
"Shen Jianting, do you really want to fight to the death?!" Zhang Jian was angry, and at the same time, a trace of fear rose in his heart.
Shen Jianting really wanted to kill him, not just talking.
"Kill!!"
What responded to him was Shen Jianting's fist.
The fist with the light of blood and true essence can break mountains and rivers, and the air is blasting.
"Boom!!"
Zhang Jian was knocked away by a punch, and the gap between the two gradually emerged with the long battle.
Without Xu Rongchang's help, Zhang Jian faced Shen Jianting alone and gradually lost.
"Shen Jianting, you forced me to do this." Zhang Jian's face was fierce, and his black iron armor was broken, his battle robe was tattered, his body was covered with mottled blood, and his scars were hideous.
Zhang Jian took out a red pill, which was a blood burning pill, which forcibly increased the burning of blood and true essence and enhanced combat effectiveness.
Zhang Jian swallowed the blood burning pill in one gulp, his face was full of painful hideousness, and his blood and true essence increased instantly.
"Kill!!"
Zhang Jian waved his fist and blasted Shen Jianting.
Shen Jianting looked stern, and did not show fear because the other party took the blood burning pill to enhance the blood strength.
Boom! !
A punch was thrown, and the fists of the two men collided, and the terrifying force collided like thunder.
The two men fought bloody, punching each other, and hitting each other, trying desperately to kill each other.
The horror of the battle made many people watching feel panic.
The great master of the great perfection fought desperately, and every blow was extremely terrifying.
The battle between the two gradually left the sky above Tianmen Pass and moved to the depths of the forest.
Only bursts of mountain-shaking and earth-shaking sounds were heard from the distant forest outside the pass.
Outside Tianmen Pass, the shouts of the army were still deafening.
The Dali army retreated, and the Zhendong army and the Hexi cavalry pursued fiercely and fought to the death.
Innate masters and master masters were fighting everywhere.
More than 100,000 troops were chasing the Dali army of more than 300,000 at this moment.
Under the rolling cavalry of Wu Cheng and others, fleeing Dali soldiers fell in a pool of blood.
The fierce cavalry was extremely swift and difficult to resist. Once it charged past, tens of thousands of Dali soldiers fell under the cavalry's butcher knife.
Sheng Huaian's killing value was constantly increasing. He knew that Wu Cheng was fighting with the Dali army at this moment.
Looking at the killing value that increased by nearly 200,000, Sheng Huaian felt that the army that consumed so many materials to cultivate was worth it.
Sitting still, the killing value kept rising.
Unknowingly, the killing value increased to more than 900,000 again.
Sheng Huaian led the heavy armored cavalry, Zhou Yuan's troops and Rongdi slave soldiers and auxiliary soldiers, and continued to move south slowly.
The battle of Tianmen Pass ended with the Dali soldiers fleeing back to Shulie City.
Before attacking Tianmen Pass, Dali raised 700,000 troops, but ended in failure. In the end, only 150,000 of the 700,000 troops were left.
The defeat was too tragic. Countless Dali soldiers fled back to Shulie City, looking terrified and completely losing their will to fight.
Zhang Jian finally survived Shen Jianting's hand, but he had a broken arm and a limp leg, and his whole body was weak and his injuries were extremely serious.
Zhang Jian returned to Shulie City and looked at the remaining army, his heart was bleeding.
It was over, his road and future were all over.
The serious injuries made him lose the hope of breaking through the Martial Saint. The Dali Zhenxi Army under his command was now only a remnant of defeated soldiers.
Of the 700,000 troops, only 150,000 or 160,000 were left, and more than 500,000 died in the battle. What a miserable defeat.
His time as Zhenxi Marquis was over.
The best result was to be confined to the Dali Imperial City and die of old age.
"General!!"
"Marquis!!"
The surviving generals looked at Zhang Jian with a sad look on their faces.
"Ah!"
"It's fate." Zhang Jian sighed.
Who would have thought that the subordinates of the Great Wei Shengwu King came so quickly, and brought a sword talisman that could kill a grandmaster, directly beheaded Xu Rongchang, and destroyed Xu Rongchang's 300,000 troops.
The battle situation collapsed instantly, and the collapse was so rapid.
"Send a message to the court, our army was defeated, the Great Wei Shengwu King intervened in the war, and may counterattack our dynasty, let your majesty send strong men to support as soon as possible." Zhang Jian ordered.
Now he is seriously injured and has no strength to fight.
A strong man must be sent to guard the army as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.
"Yes, General!!"
Wen Renli looked at Zhang Jian's appearance and couldn't help frowning.
"Marquis Zhang, your injuries!!"
Zhang Jian smiled bitterly: "Who knows that crazy Shen really wants to fight me to the death, but Shen Jianting is also seriously injured. As long as the Great Wei Shengwu King has not arrived, we are safe for the time being."
One arm was cut off and one leg was lame. After taking the blood burning pill, white hair appeared on Zhang Jian's head.
His martial arts foundation was completely destroyed by Shen Jianting.
......
Shen Jianting dragged his wounds back to Tianmen Pass.
Although it was not fatal, it would take at least a few months to recover.
"Father, are you okay?" Shen Liang's armor was also full of knife marks and blood.
Looking at his father covered in wounds, his eyes were full of worry.
"Marquis!"
"General!"
The generals of the Zhendong Army looked at Shen Jianting worriedly.
Shen Jianting smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry, it's just a few minor injuries."
He turned his eyes and looked at Wu Cheng and others.
"Shen thanks all the generals for their support. Our Zhendong Army is grateful for this kindness." Shen Jianting clasped his fists solemnly.
"Zhendong Marquis is in serious condition!" Wu Cheng and others hurriedly clasped their fists in reply.
"If you hadn't shown up in time to reinforce our Zhendong Army, we wouldn't have been able to defend Tianmen Pass today." Shen Jianting felt a little nervous when he thought of it.
If Tianmen Pass was not defended, not only would it be lost, but his Zhendong Army would also suffer heavy casualties.
Fortunately, Wu Cheng and others came to help in time, and brought with them the killer mace of King Shengwu, and instantly killed Xu Rongchang.
Otherwise, Shen Jianting didn't dare to think about the consequences.
He also didn't expect that Xu Rongchang would actually attack ordinary soldiers without regard for his face and taboos.
