On the second day, Yang Qiu had basically recovered after a night's rest. Although the army suffered a disastrous defeat, it still had an advantage. It could not wait for the rebels to join the reinforcements, so it had to continue moving forward.

This time Yang Qiu was much silent, allowing his generals to command the army calmly.

Soon all the officers and soldiers successfully crossed the river, and then marched along the river towards Xiangping City.

In view of the painful lesson from the last sneak attack, all the generals were cautious along the way and did not move very fast.

Xu Kang also sent out cavalry, with a team of a hundred people, imitating Gongsun Zan's harassment tactics, constantly using bows and arrows to block the advance of the army. Unfortunately, his ability to command the cavalry was limited, and his soldiers did not

Baima Yicong is such a skilled horseman and archer, so his effect is limited.

Yang Qiu finally arrived at Xiangping City with his army.

To the surprise of the officers and generals, Xu Kang did not defend the city, but lined up on a hill with two thousand troops in a fighting posture.

The generals of the army and the army were very surprised and started talking for a while. They didn't understand Xu Kang's intention. Could it be that the last victory had made the young general of the rebel army go to his head?

However, to be cautious, the government army only sent a team of 3,000 people to test.

Seeing the officers and soldiers approaching, Xu Kang immediately waved his sword and shouted: "The officers and soldiers are as timid as mice and have nothing to fear. Now is the time for everyone to make contributions. Come on." After saying this, he waved his sword forward, and two thousand people were behind him.

The soldiers immediately howled and rushed out.

Upon seeing this, the three thousand officers and soldiers immediately set up their positions and waited for the enemy's charge. However, they soon discovered that the charge of these thieves was not powerful at all. Then, the officers and soldiers who had calmed down made a counterattack, and the thieves stood up.

Collapse.

At this time, Xu Kang, who was in the rear, suddenly made a fuss and shouted: "No, the officers and soldiers are too strong. Let's retreat to the city first." After saying that, he hit his horse and fled to the city, completely ignoring what was behind him.

These soldiers.

Yang Qiu had already recognized Xu Kang on horseback as the young thief who was so angry that he vomited blood on the river bank yesterday, and now his enemy was even more jealous when he saw him.

Seeing that Xu Kang was about to run back to the city, Yang Qiu couldn't sit still anymore and shouted: "Catch him quickly. If you catch that thief, I will reward you heavily."

After the brief battle just now, all the soldiers saw that the rebel army was so ineffective, and they were already eager to try, but they were restricted by military regulations and did not dare to make mistakes.

At this time, when they heard Yang Qiu's words and were encouraged by a huge reward, they couldn't hold back any longer, so they all chased after Xu Kang with howls.

Xu Kang seemed to be chased so hard that he did not enter the city on horseback, but ran to one side along the city wall. Soon he ducked around the corner of the city wall and disappeared.

The sergeants following behind were very anxious, this was a huge fortune. If they caught it and presented it to the prefect, they would get a lot of wealth. So they all followed closely and came to the corner of the city wall.

"Kill." The soldier at the front shouted the slogan meaninglessly, but then stopped and looked ahead blankly. The soldiers who followed him closely had also reached the corner, but there was no one.

All the exceptions stopped, looking dumbfounded.

And just opposite these people, a cavalry force of nearly 3,000 people was forming a sharp formation and waiting.

Xu Kang ran to the front of the team, turned around, and looked at the dumbfounded looks of the chasing soldiers behind him, with a devilish smile on his face.

Xu Kang smiled solemnly and said: "Soldiers, what are you waiting for? Charge with me." After saying that, he shouted and rushed forward. The three thousand soldiers behind him let out ear-piercing screams and followed with a rumble.

behind him.

Those Zheng Huan officers and soldiers who had been running just now were unable to digest this sudden change of situation. They were a little stunned and did not react until the cavalry rushed in front of them. It was just that they had already messed up their formation in order to chase Xu Kang, and now they were in a daze.

There was no match for these cavalry. With just one impact, these officers and soldiers collapsed.

The defeated soldiers were scurrying around, shouting continuously. Xu Kang did not command the cavalry to massacre these defeated soldiers, but consciously drove them towards the official army's main formation.

Besides, these defeated troops were in panic and wanted to escape for their lives, and the camp of our own army was undoubtedly their first choice for escape.

Yang Qiu looked at the scene in front of him with almost disbelief, as if he had returned to the shore of the Liao River. At that time, he was laughing at the incompetence of the rebel army and allowing his own army to cross the river easily, but then he was attacked head-on by Xu Kang, five thousand

The army was wiped out.

Now, it's like this again. The situation that was originally great has been completely reversed in the blink of an eye. Is it possible that these three thousand soldiers can't be saved? Yang Qiu felt a bad energy clogging his chest, and he felt so uncomfortable that he wanted to vomit blood.

Fortunately, seeing the three thousand soldiers running back safely, Yang Qiu was overjoyed and said: "Make way quickly and let the soldiers return to camp to rest." These were the three thousand elites of his headquarters. If they were to lose again, he would have hit him head-on.

So excited.

"No, stop them quickly, don't let them in." A general rushed to Yang Qiu and shouted.

Yang Qiu was stunned and said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? These are our soldiers."

"They will disrupt our formation, and what will we have to resist the bandits' attack?"

Yang Qiu finally reacted and quickly ordered: "Quick, form a formation. Drive these soldiers out."

But it was too late. Those defeated troops were like headless flies. When Yang Qiu ordered to get out of the formation and accommodate them, they had already entered the formation and were everywhere. Now that Yang Qiu ordered them to be expelled, it was like water poured over them.

The hot oil boils suddenly.

Outside were thousands of ferocious rebel cavalry. If we drove them out at this time, wouldn't we let them die? The angry soldiers immediately clashed with the officers and soldiers who drove them away. They quarreled first, and then started fighting.

, the entire front line of the army was instantly destroyed.

Xu Kang, who was organizing the cavalry formation outside the army camp, was a little stunned when he saw this situation. Although he had planned to use the rout to destroy the opponent's formation, he did not expect that the effect was beyond his expectation, and he suddenly burst out laughing.

He smiled and said: "The officers and soldiers are in chaos. The army will charge with me."

"Kill!" When the ear-splitting shouts of killing and the sound of galloping horse hooves appeared in the ears of the officers and soldiers, the irresistible frontline soldiers collapsed completely. Even the officers and soldiers in other directions could not defend their positions.

It is a miserable scene of wolves running around.

"How could this happen? How could this happen?" Yang Qiu's eyes were dull and he could only mutter this sentence in a confused voice.

"Sir, nothing can be done now. Let's withdraw first." A general reported anxiously.

"Withdraw?" Yang Qiu, already looking like a fool, murmured after hearing this: "The army is so defeated, where can I retreat to?" After saying that, with a "pop" sound, he spit out a mouthful of blood and fell off his horse.

"Sir." His bodyguard immediately stepped forward, helped Yang Qiu up, and fled on horseback.
