    Liu Wenxiu was shot in the chest and fell off his horse.  He was the center of attention on the battlefield. After he was shot and fell from his horse, the soldiers of the Western Army exclaimed in unison, while the soldiers of the Chu Army shouted loudly together.  "Liu Wenxiu is dead!" "Liu Wenxiu is dead!" The shouts spread far away, and all the officers and soldiers of the Western Army turned pale. For a moment, they couldn't care about other things. They all turned their heads to look here, and the guards on the left and right rushed forward.  He went to help Liu Wenxiu who was unconscious on the ground, untied his breastplate and bandaged him to stop the bleeding, and kept patting and calling, and Liu Wenxiu finally opened his eyes.  "Help help me, get on the horse." His face was as pale as paper, and blood was still oozing from his chest. Not far away, the excited Chu army musketeers were approaching quickly. Several guards gritted their teeth and pulled Liu  Wenxiu hugged his horse, and the thousands of Western troops around the battlefield burst into cheers when they saw his familiar armor.  Liu Wenxiu's body swayed twice, and he was about to fall off his horse again. The guards on his left and right hurriedly supported him. Seeing Liu Wenxiu's dying appearance, the cheers of the Western Army suddenly stopped, but the Chu Army shouted loudly again.  "Liu Wenxiu can't survive!" "Liu Wenxiu is going to die!" At the same time, the Chu army's musketeers quickened their pace and rushed towards this side. The two rows of soldiers in the front were already aiming their guns, and one of the guards did not care about the others.  , also jumped on the war horse, hugged Liu Wenxiu to his chest, whipped the horse and galloped away.  "Bang bang bang bang!" Countless bullets chased their backs. The bodyguard suddenly shook and he had obviously been shot. However, he was strong and wearing two layers of heavy armor. He did not fall off his horse after being shot.  , endured the injury and continued to run away with Liu Wenxiu in his arms. In a few breaths, he had already rushed out of the range of the flintlock gun and fled down the mountain.  Behind him, dozens of guards followed closely. From time to time, war horses fell on the hillside. Suddenly, the strongman holding the flag lost its front hoof and was pierced by the war horse. The front end of the flag in his hand hit the ground and broke into two pieces.  .  The commander was seriously injured and his flag was broken. The Western Army suddenly shouted and dispersed. No matter how many heads Qi Sansheng chopped off, he could not change the reality of a devastating defeat.  "Follow me and protect the King of Shu!" Qi Sansheng gave up his efforts and led hundreds of remnants to chase Liu Wenxiu who had gone down the mountain.  Liu Wenxiu did not go far at this time. After the personal guards on his left and right protected him temporarily out of danger, they found two medical officers and put Liu Wenxiu down on a flat place by the road for emergency treatment. When Qi Sansheng arrived, the two  A famous medical officer had just stopped Liu Wenxiu's bleeding and applied medicine.  "How is the injury of King Shu?" Qi Sansheng jumped off his horse.  "The King of Shu was injured between his heart and lungs. He has been given medicine, but the lead bullet has not been removed. He can only be cured by rushing to the camp at the foot of the mountain." The injury cannot be improved unless the bullet is removed, but in such simple conditions now  Under the circumstances, it was impossible to complete such a complicated surgical operation, and the two medical officers were so anxious that they were sweating.  "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!" Qi Sansheng became anxious immediately. He was shot in the chest. There was not much hope of cure. Liu Wenxiu's life could not be saved if he continued to delay.  "The King of Shu refused to leave. He said he had something to explain to General Qi" the medical officer timidly explained. Qi Sansheng ignored him and strode to Liu Wenxiu, knelt down on one knee and picked him up.  On his right hand, he saw Liu Wenxiu's expression was ashen and defeated, as if he was on his deathbed. Tears welled up in his eyes before he even opened his mouth.  "A man will die if he dies, why are you crying?" After Liu Wenxiu stopped bleeding, he spoke with some strength, and raised three fingers to Qi Sansheng: "I have three things for you to do. First, you should do it immediately.  Return to the mountain pass and summon Wang Shangli, Gao Wengui and Lu Mingchen to order them to break out of the encirclement. Secondly, summon Bao Shengting and order him to retreat immediately. Thirdly, gather the remaining troops and hold the camp at the foot of the mountain for two days and two nights to assist the various ministries to break out" 1  After talking too much, Liu Wenxiu coughed violently. Qi Sansheng nodded repeatedly with tears in his eyes. Bao Shengting was the leader of the Yunnan reinforcements and was rushing to Tuyunguan according to Liu Wenxiu's order, but Liu Wenxiu was here  Already defeated, if Bao Shengting cannot retreat in time, he will send the sheep into the tiger's mouth.  Liu Wenxiu continued: "If I die immediately, I still have two things to entrust to you. First, lead the camp at the foot of the mountain to retreat immediately, and pass on my king's orders to gather all the troops and retreat to Yunnan. Second, I will send you a letter written in blood by my king."  With the King of Qin and the King of Jin, you must negotiate peace with Wang Kefan, even if you give up Huguang and surrender" These two orders seemed to be somewhat contradictory to the previous three orders. Qi Sansheng was slightly startled, and then realized that if Liu Wenxiu  After his death, the morale of the Western Army was completely depleted, and the base camp at the foot of the mountain would definitely not be able to be defended, so Liu Wenxiu asked him to withdraw immediately. At that time, the Western Army only wanted to be able to hold the Yunnan base camp, and did not care about places like Sichuan, Guizhou, and Guangxi.  Yes, and according to Liu Wenxiu¡¯s opinion, the Western Army will definitely attackThose who defeat the Chu army would rather make huge concessions than seek peace as soon as possible.  With Liu Wenxiu's order, Qi Sansheng hurried back to the mountain pass. Along the way, the defeated soldiers still filled the entire official road. When fleeing for their lives, these defeated soldiers would not give way to the first three, but would fight with swords to fight for the road.  Once a bloody conflict occurs, there will immediately be chaos, and the road utilization rate is very low. In fact, Qi Sansheng rushed back and forth, and only about 20% of the Western soldiers escaped.  When they arrived near the fork in the road, the Chu army's musketeers had already taken control of the official road. They were chasing down the defeated troops of the Western Army's rear army. However, the main force guarded the two intersections. It was obvious that the Chu army planned to eliminate Wang Shangli and Gao Wengui first.  and Lu Mingchen, and then pursued Liu Wenxiu.  "I want to eat an army of 30,000 in one bite, but I won't choke you to death!" Although Qi Sansheng's troops have been defeated, he does not believe that the Chu army can easily eliminate Wang Shangli and others. After all, they are the main force of the Western Army.  The total number of soldiers and auxiliaries exceeds 50,000. Even if there are some losses, it is still a powerful force. Even if it is pocketed by the Chu army, it can forcefully break through the encirclement and withdraw most of the troops.  Avoiding the Chu army at a distance, he climbed to a mountain peak. There were actually several sentries of the Western Army on the mountain. Qi Sansheng ordered his men to prepare to light smoke and fireworks rockets, and summoned Wang Shangli, Gao Wengui and Lu Mingchen to break out separately.  "General Qi, no need, they are already breaking out separately." The sentries said.  "Well, what's going on?" Qi Sansheng quickly looked into the distance. There were alleys and official roads. The Western Army was distributed on two large battlefields. There was chaos everywhere. Gao Wengui's general flag could barely be seen. Wang Shangli and Lu Mingchen  However, the general's flag had disappeared. Under the guidance of the sentry left behind, Qi Sansheng could barely find the general location of the two of them.  "How come they only have this few men left? Have they all been killed by the Chu thieves?" Qi Sansheng was shocked. Wang Shangli was in a better situation. There were about 3,000 soldiers around him, fighting and retreating. Lu Mingchen was beside him.  But there were only more than a thousand soldiers left. They retreated to a lonely hilltop and were surrounded by layers of Chu army groups. There was no way to escape. Not far from him, Gao Wengui led several hundred soldiers and was heading south.  He fought hard and wanted to join up with another group of Western troops.  "Our army was fighting fiercely with the Chu thieves just now, but the Chu thieves suddenly shouted that His Royal Highness the King of Shu is dead. Our army was immediately in chaos, and then they broke out separately. The number of men and horses around the generals was getting smaller and smaller" The sentry explained  He was not sure, but Qi Sansheng roughly guessed what happened. After Liu Wenxiu was injured, the Western Army had no fighting spirit. Wang Shangli and others unanimously decided to break out separately, so there were not many troops around him, but Chu  The army has been keeping a close eye on them and surrounded them with an absolutely superior force. Now these three generals are in danger.  If the sacrifices of the three of them were used to exchange for the breakout of other troops, it would be considered worthy. However, most of the Western soldiers would only run back along the way they came, just in time to hit the muzzle of the Chu army's musketeers.  At the intersection of small roads, almost 20,000 Western troops were blocked by Liu Tichun's troops. In order to find a way out, those Western soldiers continued to launch desperate charges, but they were still unable to break through the defense line of the Chu Army's musketeers. Countless Western soldiers watched.  After going forward one after another, Qi Sansheng fell under the gunpoint of the Chu army. For a moment, Qi Sansheng felt like the nightmare was happening again.  "An army of fifty thousand, an army of fifty thousand, is this the end?" Qi Sansheng murmured to himself, his nails almost pinching his fingers. The art of war said that the Chu army did not have an absolute advantage in strength. It would have been impossible.  All 50,000 Western troops were surrounded and eliminated, but Liu Tichun's musketeers were like a lock, using the terrain to tightly seal the encirclement, leaving the Western troops with no way to escape.  After being stunned for a moment, Qi Sansheng suddenly rushed to his soldiers and asked them to send a signal to Bao Shengting first. In this situation, Bao Shengting could still save his life. Wang Shangli and the others were already on the Chu army's plate, so they could not send a signal.  There's not much difference.  As the billowing smoke rose, Qi Sansheng sent another fifty warriors into several teams to find Bao Shengting's troops in order to ensure that everything was safe. Turning around, Qi Sansheng sent another firework rocket to Wang Shangli and others, and then led  The team left in a hurry.  Two quarters of an hour later, a group of Chu troops attacked the top of the mountain and extinguished the still burning wolf smoke. The Western army protecting the wolf smoke was eliminated, and several captured officers and soldiers were delivered to Liu Tichun.  "Is Liu Wenxiu not dead yet? He's lucky, okay, I'll give him one more ride." The Chu fleet sent 3,000 reinforcements to Liu Tichun. In the other direction, Zhou Guodong's troops had joined forces with him, and they had plenty of troops.  , seeing that the Western Army's offensive was getting weaker and weaker, and that the musketeers alone could withstand it, he divided his troops again to pursue the retreating Western Army's rear troops.  In addition, he also ordered people to help the Chu armyThe team sent an order that the second batch of reinforcements sent after returning to the sea should directly land near the camp at the foot of the mountain, striving to pocket Liu Wenxiu's rear troops and completely eliminate the enemy.
