Boom!
While Meng Yang and Xu Qing decided to retreat, Li Quan'an's long-standing catapult troops suddenly opened fire!
Dozens of already ready fire meteors once again pierced the sky and blew up a new round of blood in the enemy camp.
This time, the distance is closer. Although the catapult troops will not be able to clean up the falling stones thrown by the enemy for a while and a half, they can still attack the position of the front battalion near the middle battalion at the current position.
There are a large number of border coalition forces advancing in the rear battalion.
Naturally, Li Quan'an could not see the situation in the enemy camp. He ordered his men to launch stones, more to cooperate with the evacuation of Meng Yang, Xu Qing and others.
It never occurred to me that the enemy's front array changed to the rear array, and behind it was the time when the defense was the weakest. This round exploded together. Although it didn't explode in the middle of the square array, it also affected at least a quarter of the soldiers, and there was another burst of wailing.
have enemies in front and rear!
At this moment, it is conceivable that the border coalition forces are oppressed.
The front can't go out. In the state of abandoning the MATI shield at this time, if you want to attack the other party's catapult troops, I don't know if you have to suffer several rounds of bombing. No one can bear the loss.
The hateful thing is that the other side fires at will, while the catapult troops on their side are on fire. How can they still fight back.
The tone of the catapult can only be held first. It can only carry the other party's artillery fire and quickly retreat to find a fight that can be fought.
The cavalry troops on the sword shield array obviously have an advantage, which is also the so-called ability to fight.
But what if the other party doesn't fight you?
When the general commanding the phalanx finally endured the enemy's stone bombing and rushed to the back camp to vent his anger on the other party's cavalry troops, what he saw was
Run away!
The cavalry force of more than 50000 and nearly 60000 people ran away before the defensive array finally returned to the back camp!
How can this not make people spit blood!
What's more, from the surviving soldiers, the commander also learned the news that commander Bao Jianye was assassinated.
Being able to command the extremely important defense array at this time, the general is naturally Bao Jianye's confidant. At this time, his backer died. How can he not be angry?
But what's the use of anger?
Now start to change the defensive formation to the charge formation, and let the soldiers put down their huge shields and turn into cavalry?
Not to mention the lack of time, where did he go to find so many war horses for a while?
A war is in chaos, even people are in chaos, how can it be a war horse?
He just glanced at the horses, but those horses were already frightened. Many horses were still burning flames on their tails. At the moment, it was the time of shock and fear, and they couldn't be comforted in a short time.
Therefore, the only choice they can finally make is
Bear it.
Although very angry, although very unwilling, but at this time, what can you do except endure?
Nothing... Can be done!

"Retreat!"
On Li Quan'an's side, after receiving the news from Chen ze that Meng Yang and others had successfully broken through, he no longer hesitated and directly ordered all his subordinates to retreat.
When he came, Meng Yang led cavalry to escort him. When he returned, Li Quan'an just smiled coldly in the direction of the enemy camp. He was not worried that the other party would go out of the camp to pursue him at this time.
Xifeng City head, Chen Ze also breathed heavily.
He knew that the battle had been stable until now.
Although he did not completely annihilate the enemy... In fact, he also knew that it was impossible to completely annihilate more than 300000 enemy people with his own strength.
According to the War Merit fed back by the star system and Xu Qing's description, the enemy's commander probably died in this battle.
The two armies fought against each other and the commander was killed. It is conceivable how much the blow to morale is. Moreover, there are a series of follow-up command and scheduling problems. It will be very difficult to restore the normal command system for a while and a half.
What's more, I thought the other party's full cavalry lineup should not be equipped with siege equipment such as stone catapults. Unexpectedly, dozens of vehicles were hidden in the back camp.
Fortunately, we are determined to fight today. Otherwise, when the enemy's reinforcements arrive and complete the allocation of arms, with the help of stone catapults, the urban defense pressure of Xifeng City will increase several times.
At this time, if the catapult can be solved, it will undoubtedly greatly disrupt the deployment of the other party. Even if reinforcements arrive at this time, the first thing to do is to clean up the mess rather than attack the city.
Then came the result of the war.
Chen Ze can receive real-time information about how many enemies he killed. According to the calculation that each ordinary soldier can get 10 points of combat merit, he can probably calculate that there are more than 90000 enemy soldiers who died in this war, 13 generals and one commander.
Chen Ze earned more than one million meritorious deeds in this battle. In addition to those of ordinary soldiers, the enemy commander gave him extremely rich meritorious deeds. At least he made up some of the meritorious deeds he spent in preparation, which made Chen Ze's total meritorious deeds bounce back more than 2.7 million.
Unfortunately, this war was also the first time that Chen Ze had suffered a large number of casualties since he led the troops in the world.
Because it was not expected that the enemy had hidden so many stone catapults, Meng Yang's charge was a little slower. Only that delay, the enemy stone catapults shot down in one round, resulting in a large area of casualties in the cavalry force.
Although it was much smaller than the enemy's loss, it was also less than 10000 people who died under the boulder rain.
This makes Chen Ze very distressed.
His troops are hard won, and here in Xifeng City, they can not be supplemented at any time like the enemy. Moreover, Chen Ze even pointed to these 100000 troops as his team for development in the world. This almost lost one tenth. How can he not hurt?
Unfortunately, it is useless to be upset. The only consolation is that the soldiers did not die in vain. After the first World War, Xifeng City can be stable for a long time.
From Chen Ming, he knows that the reinforcements in Dongping city are still quiet, which means that there will be no threat to the safety of Xifeng City in the next two days at least.
In another two days, his situation of guarding Xifeng City alone will change.
If he can't wait for reinforcements, Chen Ze won't seriously stick here.
The casualties sounded an alarm for him. As a member of the team, he could not afford to lose again.
Chen Ze kept at the head of Xifeng City until all the troops returned to the city, which finally relaxed.
