The Xiliang army, already forced into a situation where they knew not where to turn, were without the formidable reputation of Yun Poxing... Experienced and seasoned generals had already caused them to fall apart.
At this moment, the Xiliang army, upon hearing the retreat order, followed General Zhai's direction... They fought towards the weakly defended area of the Zhou army, only to encounter Wang Qiulu's forces.
Wang Qiulu had not forgotten Bai Qingyan's words; once they came, there was no escape. He charged at the forefront, with a determination to take Li Tianfu's head, feeling that only then could he justify the trust the Emperor had placed in him!
Xie Xun was struck on the horse's hoof by the desperate resistance of the Xiliang army, causing him to fall from horseback. As he pierced a Xiliang soldier's chest with his sword, he kicked away a Tianfeng soldier who had rushed at him with a knife.
