Just as Luo Shixin was frightened and dazed by the spearmen of the Tianxing Army who were so amazing in the military formation, the longbowmen chased after him under the cover of the sword and shield hands, and began to accurately aim with their longbows of exaggerated lengths at a distance of half a mile.

The Wagang cavalry, who had been fighting with the spearmen for a long time, had already lost their initial speed. This allowed the heavy arrows fired by the longbow to have a higher hit rate. In this form, it was sooner or later that the Wagang cavalry led by Luo Shixin was defeated.

Of course, Luo Shixin understood that when his horse was about to order the cavalry to retreat to the camp, a large number of defeated soldiers came from behind, and dust was flying behind them. Among the defeated army, a general Wagang with bloody face and a tilted helmet saw Luo Shixin and quickly rode his horse up.

He was still far from Luo Shixin, and he said, "Report to General, after you led your troops out of the camp, a large number of Sui troops suddenly attacked the camp, with tens of thousands of people. Our army was outnumbered and the camp was lost!"

"Ah, that is, the Sui army launched a full-scale attack!" Luo Shixin said in surprise. The situation was indeed as expected. At that moment, Duan Da and Chen Guang led a 50,000 army, as well as the Sui army, which had more than 10,000 new recruits from the Eastern Capital, divided into several groups to start a full-scale counterattack.

"Retreat!" Luo Shixin roared unwillingly, and then drove away. General Nawagang didn't understand what he meant for a while, and said to himself, "Where to retreat?" Then he saw Luo Shixin's direction of speeding away, and immediately understood. Luo Shixin was running towards the Limi camp in Luokou. He immediately rode his horse and caught up with Luo Shixin's personal cavalry and ran northward.

As soon as Luo Shixin ran away, the cavalry of Wagang Army who were left alone and still insisted on fighting also rode their horses to flee north. However, the spearmen of the Tianxing Army almost did not give them a chance. At this time, their mounts were weak and could not rise in speed. However, the spearmen could walk vigorously and continue to maintain the high-speed movement of the entire square formation. The cavalry of Wagang Army was stabbed into honeycombs by spears one after another.

The other routes of Wagang Army retreated and the left-behind camp suffered similar fates. The Tianxing Army cavalry alone defeated the three Wagang Army who had evacuated first, and Duan Da and Chen Guang each captured one of the left-behind camps of Wagang Army.

When Luo Shixin's remnants retreated to Luokoucang City and met with Li Mi, he counted the number of people and found that the 100,000 army was only less than 30,000, and when Li Mi met, there were only 150,000 troops. In other words, in the past six months, not counting the battlefields in other places, the Wagang Army in Luokou alone was destroyed by the Sui army.

On the second day, Duan Da, Chen Guang, who followed them, and Sima De Investigation Department, Li Cai's army, and a total of nearly 70,000 troops set up camps five miles south of Luokou, defending them and waiting for change.

Li Mi quickly summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures. When there was a strong city in front and a large camp in the back, and the food supply was not enough, everyone felt that they could not stay in Luokou City for a long time, and they thought they should retreat to the east of Hulao Pass as soon as possible and return to the old territory of the Wagang Army to refuse to guard the other side before making plans. Li Mi had this intention, so the retreating military order was immediately issued to each battalion and division.

The 150,000 Wagang army slowly retreated eastward like a torrent. Although Li Mi, Luo Shixin and others learned enough lessons, made strict arrangements and planned in detail during this retreat. However, during the retreat, the Sui army, which had super reconnaissance and intelligence collection capabilities, was still seized by the Sui army, which had super strong reconnaissance and intelligence collection capabilities, and fought several ambush raids in succession with the Tianxing Army as the main attack, killing and killing a large number of Wagang Army soldiers. Lai Huer in Luokou City also took the opportunity to dispatch the elite troops of the Tianxing Army to launch an attack on the tail of the Wagang Army.

The Wagang Army, which was already depressed due to food shortages and continuous defeats, was defeated. During this great defeat, a large number of Wagang generals were killed, including Pei father and son, Luo Shixin and others. Pei father and son died under the spears of the Tianxing Army's spearmen. Luo Shixin was shot through his head by a heavy arrow in an ambush.

When Li Mi fled to Xingyang, there were no soldiers left. After several days of gathering the remaining soldiers, the total number of people was less than 50,000. Li Mi still comforted his place and left the green mountains without fear of burning firewood. Although he lost his troops and generals, his territory was still there. From the seaside of Qingzhou in the east to the eastern foot of the Jishan Mountains, all the counties and counties still obeyed him. As soon as he arrived in Xingyang, he immediately wrote an imperial edict, ordering all counties and counties to collect military service and draw elite troops to Xingyang for reinforcements.

However, after his decree was issued, the local Wagang forces were not much Miao Miao. One reason was that Li Mi's defeat in Luokou greatly affected his prestige among the Wagang Army. Although the Wagang Army was the largest anti-Sui force in the world, its composition was complex, and its cohesion was of course incomparable to the forces like Li Yuan with clan lords as the core. If they follow the trend, they could still obey the commander's orders on the surface, but when they were in decline, they began to be disinterested.

Second, the people's power was indeed exhausted and difficult to sustain. The heroes had originally rebelled against the Sui Dynasty because Yang Guang's three campaigns to Goguryeo led to the decline of people's livelihood. As a result, after the Wagang Army ruled, they still collected grain, recruited soldiers, and recruited labor. Originally, they worked for the Wagang Army and had grain from Kouluokoucang, but now they had to bring their own food, so how could they be willing to do so? If they were forced to force themselves, they were afraid that from ordinary people to powerful clans would rebel again. Therefore, the county magistrates and county magistrates of the Wagang Army were passively responding to Li Mi's edict.

...

Just when Li Mi was in a state of great trouble, Yang Guang was in a smooth journey. In the Battle of Yuzhang, the Sui army won a great victory. After a long siege, the Yuzhang County, which Lin Shihong was finally occupied, was captured by the Sui army. Lin Shihong was killed on the spot. Now his head was on Yang Guang's desk. In addition, some time ago, taking advantage of the fierce battle between the Sui army in the north and the Sui army in the south and the Sui army in the south, they rushed into Nanyang, Xinye, and Xiangyang, the robber Zhu Can, who was siege and robbed the cannibals in Nanyang, Xinye, and Xiangyang.

The demise of Lin Shihong means that the system of anti-Sui separatist forces in the south have been completely eliminated. Of course, there are also small groups of bandit-like armed forces like Zhu Can, but this is no longer a problem. The local county garrison can suppress the pacification.

Seeing that the south was no longer in control, Yang Guang immediately issued an edict ordering Xia Yue to draw elite troops from the Jiangdu General Office to advance north along the Tongji Canal, and fight with the northern Sui army to completely wipe out the Wagang Army with Xingyang as the center.
