However, there were less than ten thousand Yellow Turban Army soldiers left surrounding Wutun Town. It didn't matter whether they retreated or not!
The Yellow Turban Army was still aggressive in their attacks during the day due to their reduced numbers. However, the battle was no longer as intense as before! Wutun Town was about to run out of arrows, but just Qi Zheng, Tian Bao, Li Dong, and Sun Bao were enough to give the Yellow Turban Army a hard time!
As the battle raged on, Qi Zheng and the other three beginner generals charged out of the gates they were guarding at almost the same time. They cut into the Yellow Turban Army like ants and started fighting!
How powerful were these Yellow Turban Army soldiers? Most of them were First and Second Grade soldiers. Naturally, they were nothing compared to the four beginner generals! Due to Yang Rui's miscommunication, Qi Zheng and the others already knew that the Yellow Turban Army was about to retreat. Their confidence grew, and they became even more unstoppable!
From a distance, Qi Zheng and the other beginner generals were like four windmills. They spun with all their might and scattered the Yellow Turban Army soldiers. Any Yellow Turban Army soldier that dared to stand in their way were sliced into pieces. Their heads, arms, legs, and ears flew everywhere!
The four beasts weren't just charging around mindlessly. They might look ferocious, but they were still within the range of the archers on the archers' towers and gates. Even if they were exhausted, they could still order the archers to shoot at the pursuing Yellow Turban Army and return to the town as soon as possible!
In particular, the eight archer towers at the gates had plenty of Third Grade archers. Their accuracy and range were incomparable to ordinary archers. Despite the shortage of arrows, their supply of arrows didn't decrease at all!
Over the course of the day, more than half of the Yellow Turban Army had been killed. There were no more than two or three thousand left! Under normal circumstances, such a number wasn't even enough to last half a night of 'work' for the bandit leaders!
When the sky darkened, Yang Rui immediately sent these 'Shadow Messengers' into the Yellow Turban Army's camp. A slaughter under the cover of the night instantly began!
"Who goes there?!"
"What's going on?!"
"Ah!"
"…"
It was not until there were only a few dozen tents left that the Yellow Turban Army soldiers realized that something was wrong. Each of the remaining tents was overseen by a Yellow Turban Army sub-captain. They were Yu Rui, Ding Liang, Super Chen and the others mentioned in Yang Lai's letter, so they were relatively vigilant.
Unfortunately, it was already too late. There weren't many Yellow Turban Army soldiers left. These captains were only Third and Fourth Grade Yellow Turban soldiers with beginner commander talents! Even if he was alert, there was nothing he could do!
"Kill!"
"Follow me and kill the Yellow Turban Bandits!"
"…"
The moment the torches of the Yellow Turban Army lit up, the soldiers in Wutun Town of Jiangji immediately noticed the situation here through the arrow tower. Under the lead of Qi Zheng and the others, they all went out to provide support.
Relatively speaking, the Yellow Turban Army was at a disadvantage in terms of rank and number. Seeing that things were not going well, the originally disunited soldiers immediately became fearful and began to flee in all directions.
Human nature has always been like this. It can't be said that they don't have faith. During the day, when the Yellow Turban Soldiers were facing certain death, they still bravely threw themselves at the city walls and arrow towers! That was called 'sacrificing one's life for justice'! Now, faced with the darkness of the night, unknown enemies, and unknown life and death, they chose to flee at the first possible moment! It was an instinctive desire for survival!
In truth, Yang Rui could have contacted the soldiers in the city and killed the Yellow Turban Army together. That would have saved them a lot of time. However, in the end, Yang Rui didn't do so. That was because the Yellow Turban Army could flee in the midst of chaos. There was also the possibility of casualties among his own soldiers!
In the end, some of the Yellow Turban Army soldiers managed to escape and disappeared into the night. The rest of them were wiped out by Yang Rui, Qi Zheng, and the others who worked together from the inside and outside.
"Yellow Turban Camp Talisman Papers (1100)! Can be used to construct a temporary Yellow Turban Camp. Can hold 12 soldiers. Each talisman paper can only be used once. Number of uses remaining: 1.
"Three Styles of the Brute Blade: Fourth Grade Advancement Skill Book for Longsword Soldiers. Combat Skill Book. Can upgrade Third Grade Longsword to Fourth Grade Longsword Soldier. Required Building: Intermediate Barracks!
"Yellow Turban Longsword: Grade: Normal (Standard). Attack: 45-45. Level Requirement: 40. Durability: Peace Talisman Water (218): Each unit can instantly recover 50 HP. Not limited by combat. No limit on usage!"
"Flood Talisman: Peace Talisman. When activated, an indiscriminate flood will cover an area of 10m * 10m! Usage limit: 1/1. "
"… …"
The Yellow Turban Army soldiers in the innermost tent dropped some decent items. Among them were 1100 Yellow Turban Camp Talisman Papers. In addition to the 100 talismans that Yang Rui had obtained earlier, Yang Rui's problem of setting up a long-distance camp was basically solved!
In addition, there were five to six sets of Fourth Grade Skill Books and equipment. Although the quantity was small, it covered several types of soldiers. Over 200 Peace Talisman Water and two to three Peace Talismans were obtained, including a Flood Talisman!
This Flood Talisman was very similar to the Thunderfire Talisman that Yang Rui had obtained when he first entered the game. They should be of the same grade. However, these two talismans were single-use items. Under normal circumstances, Yang Rui would not be willing to use them to test their power!
Apart from that, Yang Rui had also obtained quite a lot of gold coins. In total, he had obtained over a hundred gold coins! For the currently financially strapped Yang Rui, this was a considerable amount of income!
Most importantly, the siege of Wutun Town in Jiang Ji had been broken! Most of Yang Rui's power was trapped here. The removal of the Yellow Turban Army was equivalent to removing the shackles on Yang Rui's power!
By the time Yang Rui had finished cleaning up the Yellow Turban Army, it was already three in the morning. Yang Rui had Qi Zheng and the others return to the town to rest and recover their strength. Then, he brought a group of Fifth Grade bandits to Ma Zhuangqiang's camp to take a look.
Just as Yang Rui had expected, Ma Zhuangqiang's camp was very remote. Only a few Yellow Turban Army soldiers wandered around. They were all taken care of by the ten to twenty people that Yang Rui had placed in the checkpoint. For the time being, there was no major threat!
