At this moment, the King of Jieri sighed dejectedly. The current situation was that he was in a mess. Especially after the elephant stampede, countless soldiers were in a mess. He really had no way to turn the tide.
The King of Jieri looked at Abdo and said, "Abdo, what should we do?"
Abdo said, "Your Majesty, let's avoid the elephant herd first."
He did not waste any more words and immediately led the King of Jieri away. Abdo did not go to the front of the camp because he was sure that since Du Qi had chosen to attack, he would not just stand by and watch. Therefore, Abdo led the King of Jieri to the right side of the camp to avoid the elephant herd.
Many soldiers were also running away.
Nearly ten thousand elephants were running with ferocious momentum and could not be stopped. Under such circumstances, even if there were tens of thousands more people in the camp, they would still be at a loss when faced with the mad elephant without enough powerful weapons, let alone the fact that King Jieri only had a hundred thousand people in the camp. Even hundreds of thousands of people would run into a wall.
Therefore, the King of Jieri's army was in a complete mess.
No one could stop the crazy elephants.
This scene fell into the eyes of Du Qi, who was looking through binoculars at a slightly higher position in the camp. Du Qi's lips curled into a smile because at this point, the King of Jieri had already lost.
Du Qi did not immediately give the order to attack. Instead, he ordered them to retreat. The reason was simple. When these elephants were charging, they might rush out of the camp and then run wildly outside the camp. It was best to avoid them first.
After the elephants stopped attacking, they would organize the soldiers to kill the King of Jieri.
In the camp, after Abdo and the King of Jieri avoided the elephant charge, the King of Jieri immediately ordered the army to recover their fighting strength. Seeing this, Abdo hurriedly advised, "Your Majesty, our situation is not good. Quickly retreat. After all, our elephant soldiers have lost their fighting strength. Of the nearly ten thousand giant elephants, some were injured and some were running away. Those who stayed behind were already frightened and unable to command them. That's why we can't borrow the strength of the elephant soldiers to stop Du Qi. We can only retreat quickly. "
King of Jieri was not oblivious to the situation.
However, the King of Jieri was unwilling to give up. His army was gathered here. If they had to retreat before launching a proper attack with Du Qi, it would be too embarrassing.
This was what King of Jieri thought was shameful.
King of Jieri knew that Abdo's decision was not wrong. He immediately ordered, "Men!"
At his command, the accompanying soldiers immediately stepped forward.
The King of Jieri ordered, "Pass down the order. All troops, retreat."
Dong! Dong! "
At this moment, the sound of war drums resounded outside the camp. Accompanied by the sound of war drums, the sixty thousand private soldiers that originally belonged to the King of Jieri's major families had already launched an attack outside the camp.
This large army charged forward in a grandiose manner.
Behind them was Du Qi's army.
In addition, there were also cavalry supporting the flanks. Du Qi's army had already launched an attack.
When the sound of the attack reached the camp, the King of Jieri could not help but shiver. He knew that his camp was in chaos and it was impossible to organize troops to resist. The only thing he could do now was to lead the army to retreat. Therefore, the King of Jieri did not hesitate and quickly retreated with Abdo. They left the scene as quickly as possible.
"Retreat, retreat at full speed!"
The King of Jieri shouted.
He retreated with Abdo, and the rest of the soldiers followed. In addition, the other Brahmin and Kshatriya leaders and leaders also retreated quickly. No one dared to stay and quickly retreated.
However, in a short period of time, the camp had been breached. Du Qi's army, the private soldiers that once belonged to the Brahmin and Kshatriya, were the first to catch up. The soldiers swung their swords and killed the enemies one by one.
At the same time, these meritorious soldiers were also cutting off the ears of the enemies.
This was a way to prove one's merit.
After all, you could not just say how many people you killed after the battle ended. You had to see evidence. The only evidence was that you cut off the ears of the enemies you killed and used the ears to prove your merit.
The soldiers under King Jieri's command fled in disarray, and the army was routed like a landslide.
They had been defeated again and again.
The King of Jieri's army had been completely defeated.
This was a battle where they had been defeated before they could even put up a fight. The King of Jieri retreated with his army. He knew that his rear had been attacked, especially when he knew that the people who attacked first were the private soldiers of the Brahmin and Kshatriya clans. This made him even angrier.
It was too hateful.
He had been attacked by these lowly commoners.
However, the King of Jieri did not dare to stay. If he stayed, he would end up in a worse state. The King of Jieri quickly shook the reins and ordered a retreat. He quickly retreated, and Abdo and the rest followed.
The two sides chased and fled. As time passed, more and more Jieri soldiers died or surrendered. This chase lasted from night to morning. In the end, the King of Jieri managed to escape.
The King of Jieri was relieved when he realized that there were no pursuers behind him. He ordered them to stop and rest.
The King of Jieri looked around and ordered a headcount.
After a round of headcount, the King of Jieri's face darkened. This was because there were only six thousand soldiers left under his command. Moreover, none of the elephants that had escaped with him had been scattered.
Although there would definitely be more soldiers gathering along the way when he retreated, there would be more and more soldiers gathering together. There might even be some elephant soldiers gathering. However, this battle was really lost.
This was the result of the King of Jieri's cold heart.
The King of Jieri looked at Abdo and said in a low voice, "Abdo, we have lost this battle. We have lost too miserably. We have lost this time. The other group that went around the trap and went to Du Qi's rear to cut off Du Qi's escape route is also finished. Speaking of which, the defeat of this battle was even more bizarre! I have been fighting my whole life, but I have never expected this. My own defeat will be at my own hands. "
Abdo sighed and said, "Your Majesty, we have already expected the elephants to be easily frightened. The elephants were all alone at the rear of the camp. It was not easy for Du Qi to find them. However, Du Qi was able to accurately find the position of the elephants and bombard them. Under this premise, we have lost. There is really nothing we can do. "
The King of Jieri said, "What should we do?"
Abdo fell silent. For a moment, he did not know what to do.
The King of Jieri asked again, "What should we do?"
After thinking for a while, Abdo finally said, "Your Majesty, there are two choices now."
The King of Jieri said, "Let's hear it."
Abdo said, "The first choice is for Your Majesty to stop fighting with Du Qi and retreat directly and return to Qunv City. After that, we can think about how to resist Du Qi. "
The King of Jieri shook his head and said, "What is the second choice?"
Abdo said, "The second choice is to temporarily avoid Du Qi's edge. Then, order the Brahmin and Kshatriya in the other countries to inform them of Du Qi's brutality and summon them to fight. As long as they are willing to fight, they still have a chance to fight against Du Qi. After all, Du Qi wants to abolish the caste system, which is equivalent to cutting off their roots. "
After a pause, Abdo said, "Speaking of which, we also have to thank Du Qi. If not for Du Qi's method, we would not have a chance to turn the situation around. We still have a chance to organize all our forces to resist. "
After hearing this, the King of Jieri said without hesitation, "Good, good, this is a good idea. For now, we will retreat for the time being and avoid Du Qi's edge. Then, we will gather the Brahmin and Kshatriya to resist. I don't believe that Du Qi will be able to stop us when he has the entire world as his enemy. Well, we will retreat slowly to Qunv City. In short, we will retreat and resist at the same time. "
Abdo said, "Your Majesty is wise."
The King of Jieri did not say anything more. He looked at the blue sky and suddenly, a helpless expression appeared on his face. Even his eyes showed a moment of doubt.
Can we still turn the situation around?
This battle has been defeated too miserably.
The King of Jieri quickly recovered and his expression became firm again. In this battle, even if it had come to this, he would still be able to turn the situation around. He would definitely be able to obtain victory.
