"Fortunately, the Turks did not escape during the day, otherwise we would have to chase them behind them. This would be fine, destroy a group of them first! Our pursuit mission will be easier in the future." After Li Xuzhan sat down, he said to the staff officer.

The staff officer quickly answered: "Yes, the leader, after the end of this battle, our mission to chase the enemy will be reduced a lot."

While Li Xuzhan was talking to the staff, the guards brought Du Mirou and Ma Lean, the commander of the Second Regiment, to tell them something.

Du Mirou saluted and said, "Chief! Just now, the acting regiment commander of Li Zhanjun sent a telegram. They caught up with a group of retreating Turkic troops on the east road. They had just ended the battle and wiped out 12,000 Turkic soldiers. About 3,000 Turkic soldiers fled while it was dark."

"You're good at fighting, send a telegram to tell them not to stop and continue to attack north." Li Xuzhan praised happily, but ordered again.

"Yes!" Du Mirou finished saluting and trotted away quickly.

When Li Xuzhan saw Du Mirou leave, he asked. "Captain Ma Le'an, where are the Turks now?"

"The Turks have been dispatched for almost two hours. It is expected that they will arrive at our blocking position at about an hour, or around nine o'clock." said Ma Lean, the leader of the second regiment.

"Let's go, I'll see where the Turks are going to pass for a while." Li Xuzhan took the staff officer and Ma Le'an walked forward.

Li Xuzhan and his staff, Ma Le'an was about one mile away from the blocking position, and saw that there was a small plain around him, which was quite flat.

"It's here. Look here. After the Turks have passed, the artillery fire will be aimed at this place, so that your cannons will be bombarded hard, so that they cannot retreat. Let some soldiers ambush the Turks on the way back. Block the fish that escaped the net." Li Xuzhan had an idea after seeing the terrain and immediately ordered.

"Yes! I'll send soldiers here right now," Ma Lean immediately saluted.

Less than an hour later, the Turkic army, holding torches, and a long snake formation team, had entered the blocking position.

"Fire the cannon!" Li Xuzhan saw that the entire Turkic army had entered the entire ambush position and ordered decisively.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!…."

"Boom, boom! boom!..."

A violent explosion occurred in the marching Turkic team. Before they understood what was going on, the Turkic soldiers were killed by a series of explosions. With the violent explosion, the Turkic soldiers were blown by huge air waves and turned over. After a round of explosions, one fifth of the soldiers in the marching team disappeared.

Before all the Turkic soldiers could understand what was coming, suddenly, another shelling sound came from the terrifying sound of them.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!…."

"Boom, boom! boom!..."

Another round of dense shells flew into the Turkic team and exploded violently. After each violent explosion, Turkic soldiers within a radius of twenty feet were overturned by shells or exploded high.

When all the Turkic soldiers heard the sound of the flying cannon, they didn't know what to do. Some soldiers didn't know how to avoid it. If they flew to their own side, they would only blame themselves for their unluckyness. If they flew to other places, they would be glad that they were lucky.

There was a short and fat middle-aged tribe leader in the Turkic team. When they saw the shells blowing up in the retreating team, they immediately understood who they had met.

Because he had received the order to retreat, he finally reminded him to dress in colorful Tang Jun. How could he not understand what he saw now? The people he met now were these people.

He didn't expect that these people were so fast. He had just received the order and had not stayed. He was ambushed by the other party after he had just come out of Xizhou City for more than an hour.

This person is the leader of the 30,000 retreat army this time, named Qiheli.

"Warriors, break through this!" Qi Heli looked at the soldiers who were already panicked and shouted loudly without any reservation.

"Boom, boom, boom!..."

Unfortunately, his shouting was soon drowned out by the violent explosion.

For Turkic soldiers who had never seen such a war pattern, the soldiers around Qi Heli heard the order to break through and rode their own horses behind Qi Heli to break through.

"Oh, I still want to run away. I think so beautifully. If it falls into the hands of our Dragon and Phoenix Empire soldiers, do you have a chance to run?" Li Xuzhan glanced at the entire battlefield and saw Qi Heli and a large group of Turkic soldiers want to escape while it was dark.

After talking to himself, Li Xuzhan shouted loudly: "Hello them with your hands/grenades and see where they run?"

Most of the Turkic soldiers were still panicking and at a loss. Taking advantage of the fire caused by the explosion of the shells, they saw dense hand grenades flying out from all directions, and white smoke fell from the sky with hissing.

Although the Turkic soldiers didn't know what these things were, they also understood that these things were not vegetarians?

In an instant, the hand grenade exploded in the air above the Turkic soldiers' heads. The short and continuous explosion sound was deafening, and the flying shrapnel splashed with the breath of death.

The Turkic soldiers who were already terrified birds felt that they were flying shrapnel everywhere. Many unlucky soldiers were hit by flying shrapnel after being exploded by several hand/grenades at the same time, and their bodies were covered with holes...

There were more than 4,000 people in total to block them. Even if each soldier threw two hand/grenades, it would be nearly 10,000, and even if two hand/grenades were blown to kill a Turkic soldier.

The casualties caused to Turkic soldiers by this round of hand/grenade attack were undoubtedly huge. After the 30,000 Turkic soldiers were shot by the second round of artillery, the remaining more than 10,000 people were still able to sit on the horse's back after the hand/grenade raid. And they were all like fools, completely stunned.

The battle did not end here. After the explosion stopped, the soldiers lying near the nearby soldiers, carrying long and short weapons, and then killed them. Under the command of the platoon leaders of various companies, the long and short weapons fired together, and the Turkic soldiers who fled in various places fell from the horse in large numbers.

Qi Heli had long been stunned by this series of fierce attacks. Are they still the soldiers on earth? How can he fight such a terrible weapon for the other party? But he was unwilling to die here in battle, so he shouted for surrender and asked his guards to shoot a white flag.

When Li Xuzhan saw the white flags raised by the other party, he quickly stopped attacking and turned on all the headlights. Hundreds of cars lit up their headlights at the same time. At this time, the originally dark night sky was also shining brightly, just like daytime.

Qi Heli saw thousands of people wearing colorful clothes, holding weapons that had just emitted fire in their hands, turning their heads to look at the bright headlights, and secretly glad that he had surrendered, otherwise it would be like the corpses that were broken by bombs on the ground.

Thinking of this, he smiled bitterly and casually held the scimitar in his hand still on the ground.

When all the Turkic soldiers heard the order of Qi Heli's surrender, they were demented to see the cars that illuminated the night sky. In addition to being shocked, they hurriedly threw away the weapons in their hands, got off from the horse, knelt on one side, and waited for soldiers who were not like human beings to deal with them.

"Send a report to the Detachment of Women and ask them to come quickly to gather the prisoners and clean up the battlefield." Li Xuzhan said to the staff officer beside him.

"yes!"

After saying that, Li Xuzhan shouted again: "Press that captive leader over."

"I'll ask you, how many defenders are there in Xizhou City now?" Li Xuzhan asked directly when he saw Qi Heli being pushed over.

Qi Heli did not dare to hide it and immediately replied: "There are four thousand soldiers guarding the city."

Li Xuzhan asked again in confusion: "Why don't they retreat with you?"

Qi Heli quickly explained: "They often do not listen to the orders of the Khan, so we did not inform them and let them stay to block you."

After hearing Qi Heli's explanation, Li Xuzhan snorted coldly and showed a sneer on his face. It seemed that it was a 200,000 army with many internal conflicts and hostility to each other. At most, such an army could fight a smooth battle.

Li Xuzhan understood the reason, learned the information of Xizhou City, and ordered loudly: "Leave a thousand people to guard the prisoners, and all the remaining soldiers headed towards Xizhou."

Ma Lean hurriedly trotted over and saluted, "Yes!"

After a while, the convoy of more than 3,000 people left the battlefield and headed towards Xizhou.

"Oh my God! Are you going to exhaust us? Commander Ma? Don't take you like this. We just finished cleaning up the Li Zhan Legion to eliminate more than 10,000 Turkic battlefields. Before we could rest for a while, you wiped out another 30,000 troops. We have now become your logistics soldiers." Li Xueyi looked at the entire battlefield, and the familiar Li Xueyi came to Ma Lean and complained.

Ma Lean patted Li Xueyi's shoulder in armor, smiled and said, "You must be mentally prepared to fight behind us. You can clean up quickly! Otherwise, Xizhou City will be knocked down again in a while, and you will be waiting for you to take over!"

"Oh my God, this battlefield cleaning can't be completed in just a few hours! There are so many prisoners of war, how do you ask us to complete it?" After hearing this, Li Xueyi sighed to the sky and complained again.

Ma Lean ignored Li Xueyi's complaints and urged: "You should take over the prisoners quickly, we will still chase the large army now."

"Xiang Shanzhi, you take someone to clean the battlefield. I will follow you to Xi County, otherwise I will let the telegrapher urge us again after a while." Li Xueyi looked at Xiang Shanzhi who was rushing over and shouted loudly.

"My goodness, there are only a few thousand people. How long did it take to destroy another 30,000 people. They are such a godly man!" Xiang Shanzhi said on the back of the horse.
