When he saw that the Zhengbei Army had just begun to land, Xie Shilin thought that he was going to succeed. As long as he drove the landing Zhengbei Army off the general, he could defend Xiangcheng steadily, and then mobilized reinforcements to go back to reinforce Baokang and respond to Xie Zhao back. However, he never expected that the Navy of the Zhengbei Army would forcibly rush to the beach at the cost of the damage of the five-masted warship. The countless demon-subduing crossbows and thunderbolt cannons provided strong long-range support to the landing Zhengbei soldiers, and defeated the second batch of Xie Shu'an's troops who were put into battle, and suffered heavy losses. The Zhengbei Army took this opportunity to land. Seeing the thousands of Zhengbei Army arrayed into neat military formations on the beach, Xie Shilin sighed and lost the best opportunity. It would be difficult to drive the opponent out of Xiangcheng.

Hu Yaoguang was overjoyed, climbed up to the highest level of a five-masted warship that was rushing to the beach, and waved his hand hard toward Cao Xinyu's flagship in the center of Jiang. At this time, Cao Xinyu, who saw that the overall situation was settled, was leading his fleet back slowly. They wanted to go to Tengchong as quickly as possible and take over the remaining troops of the 7th Battalion.

Except for the soldiers operating long-range weapons, the rest of the fleet landed on the shore, put on the armor of the soldiers of the Seventh Battalion, and prepared to participate in the land battle. Hu Yaoguang even gave an order to remove all the thunder fires on the warship and push them to the front of the military formation. With these guys, the opponent would have to pay a heavy price to fight again. In the previous battle on the river beach, these thunder fires did not play any role.

Xie Shilin was in a heavy mood without completing the previously scheduled task, and Cai Shiqi, who followed him, didn't know what to do. "General Xie, what to do, what to do?" he asked repeatedly.

"What else can I do besides keeping attacking!" Xie Shilin glared at Cai Shiqi, hoping to swallow him alive. If he hadn't been hijacked by Lin Qi and his group of people, and forced the Shu army to leave Yuzhou, how could it be today? If Xie Zhao's 40,000 troops were still in Shuzhou, how could these Northern Expedition Army land here and cause chaos?

Now that things have come to this point, what's the use of saying more? It's just a happy word, which will make each other more disconnected. Xie Shilin still understands the principle of working together in times of crisis.

"Mr. Cai, we probably have to prepare for a long battle. Lord Cai has to worry about the military rations and supplies needed!" Xie Shilin said earnestly.

"Don't worry, General Xie, I will go back to Yuzhou City now. Even if I scrape the ground three times, I will prepare more sufficient food and grass for the army. More weapons will definitely help General Xie win this battle." Cai Shiqi patted his chest and said.

"So, I'm working hard!"

"General Xie, I'll go back now, hoping to hear your good news as soon as possible."

Xie Shilin nodded but said nothing.

The attack of the Shu army only paused for an hour. After reorganizing, Xie Shuan and Xie Shucheng commanded their troops to launch an attack on Jiangtan again. At this time, their troops were several times more powerful than their opponents. They had to seize this last opportunity. The longer the time was delayed, the more unfavorable it would be for them.

At the landing point of the river beach about a thousand meters long, thousands of torches burned, illuminating the place with a clear height. The full moon in the sky also seemed dull at this moment. The sound of yelling and killing pierced the night. With the roar of the river water rushing to the river bank, waves of Shu army rushed towards the North Army formation on the river beach, hoping to find a gap.

But the Northern Army, which had arranged a military formation, could it be so easy to be broken. At this time, Hu Yaoguang had gathered the Seventh Battalion and the dozens of remaining five-masted warships. The number of people had exceeded 5,000, forming five military formations, which were arranged in an orderly manner, covering each other, and firmly defending the river beach positions.

Hu Yaoguang did not just defend the enemy. The sudden counterattack often caught his opponent off guard and suffered heavy losses. Among the five military formations, one of them was always ready to attack at any time, and the other four suppressed the position and responded at any time. Relying on the strong combat power of the Zhengbei Army, facing the enemy who was several times more powerful than him, Hu Yaoguang not only did not get kicked into the water, but instead advanced for a distance.

However, now it is the bottom line for Hu Yaoguang to advance. He must ensure that his troops save troops under the protection of long-range weapons on the five-masted warships that are rushing to the beach, and wait for the arrival of reinforcements. He does not want to waste his troops on these Shu troops, take down Shuzhou and start attacking Tongzhou, and then there will be a real tough battle.

After repeated attacks and repeated failures, Xie Shilin made a final struggle in vain. One attack, one retreat, one revived, and another attack, the Shu army fell into a vicious cycle, with more and more dead bodies on the river beach, and there were no signs of being shaken at all.

Lynch pushed away the corpse pressing on his body with difficulty. His eyes were bright red and he could not see anything vaguely. He stretched out his hand and wiped the blood on his face. The eyes suddenly became clear, but the scene that came into his eyes made him feel in pain. On the winding path of sheep intestines, there was a lot of corpses. The trap set by the Zhengbei Army here was fatal. Unprepared, they had no other place to hide except for futile hiding under this terrain. Before the Zhengbei Army even showed up, most of their troops were killed and injured and were defeated.

The shouts of killing sounded in my ears, and I tried my best to raise my head. Lynch could see that on the steep slope, on the cliff, among the trees with branches and leaves, the Northern Expedition Army was rushing out. They were carrying crossbows, spears, and big swords, and were rushing excitedly towards the Shu army, who was at a loss on the mountain road.

The sound of a crossbow sounded in his ears. Lynch wanted to stand up, but a sharp pain in his legs and his heart suddenly sank. Based on his experience, he knew that his leg was broken, and at this time it was equivalent to a life-destroying talisman.

He sat up with his body, Lynch smiled bitterly and looked toward him. Xie Chengru fell not far from him. Lynch recognized him with his clothes. His head was gone and his whole body was soaked in a pool of blood.

"General Lin, you are still alive. It's great. What should we do now?" More than a dozen Luowang team members rushed over, and they escaped by luck.

"How many people do we have?" Lynch looked at his team members and took them out of the mission for the first time, but unexpectedly took them to the death.

"We still have nearly two hundred people, and the Shu army is in trouble!" A team member lowered his head, "General, what should we do?"

"Run!" Lynch sighed, "I can't fight anymore, I can't beat you anymore, run away, how many can I run out."

Several team members came over and wanted to set up Lynch and take him away.

But Lynch rudely shook off the team members' hands, "You go, I can't walk anymore, my legs are broken, take me with you, you can't run away!"

"General, we will take you away!"

"Don't say these nonsense. I don't know if you can go back alive. Take me with you, and you will be dead and not alive. Let's leave quickly and go to Tongzhou. Let's tell the general that Yuzhou is no longer possible and the Shu army is about to collapse!" Lynch shouted loudly: "Do you want to die with me?"

The team members swallowed with difficulty, "General, take care of yourself!" turned around suddenly and left Lynch.

Seeing his team members flexibly rushing into the tree, Lynch then slowly turned his head. He saw countless soldiers rushing up, piercing, chopping and shooting down a Shu army. He saw a Shu army rushing in front of him. The man raised his spear to him expressionlessly. Seeing the spear blade sinking into his chest, Lynch didn't feel any pain.

Except for a very few people who escaped from the sky, this Shu army was annihilated by all the ambush troops set up by Zhou Bin in the deep mountains and forests.
