Ceng Cheng was not an indecisive person.
Although he was panicking and faced with a choice, Ceng Cheng made up his mind in the blink of an eye.
Retreat!
They could only retreat!
After all, they were no match for the enemy if they stayed behind to fight.
Therefore, it was better to retreat.
Ceng Cheng shouted, "Retreat! Everyone, retreat!"
After he gave the order, Ceng Cheng urged his horse to retreat quickly. The soldiers under his command didn't waste any more time and quickly retreated. No one continued to fight, and no one continued to fight.
After all, the soldiers of Fushan County were too strong.
They could not win.
The moment the soldiers of Yongye County retreated, the situation became even more disadvantageous. The army was immediately defeated. As long as the soldiers of Fushan County charged forward, the soldiers of Yongye County would either be killed or kneel down and surrender.
The army was in chaos.
Everyone retreated quickly, afraid that they would be slaughtered if they stayed.
Mordor smiled coldly when he saw this.
The battle had already begun.
Since that was the case, how could he let Ceng Cheng escape so easily?
"Chase! Everyone, chase after him!"
Mordor gave the order.
He led the soldiers and chased after the soldiers of Yongye County, taking down the soldiers of Yongye County one by one. In the blink of an eye, the soldiers of Yongye County led by Ceng Cheng had reached the location of the ravine.
That was the area that was bombarded earlier.
When the soldiers under Ceng Cheng's command charged forward, one of the soldiers stepped on the ground and there was a crisp sound.
Boom!
Following that, there was a thunderous explosion.
Following the explosion, the soldier was sent flying. When he fell to the ground, he was no longer breathing.
The rest of the soldiers of Yongye County also charged forward and stepped on the landmines on the ground.
Boom! Boom!!!
Following which, the sound of explosions rang out one after another.
The soldiers of Yongye County who stepped on the landmines were immediately killed. As for the surrounding soldiers, many of them were also killed or injured by the explosions. Many of them fell to the ground and screamed in pain.
The landmines on the ground stunned the soldiers of Yongye County, who were running away quickly.
They looked at the official road in front of them with fear in their eyes.
They were in disbelief and disbelief.
How was that possible?
They had just passed through this official road. Back then, he had easily passed the test. But now, as they were retreating, they were actually ambushed by landmines.
This batch of landmines was buried by Liu Che's soldiers.
Earlier, Liu Che led the cannoneers to bombard the city, killing and injuring many of Yongye County's soldiers. On the other hand, Ceng Cheng didn't care about the situation at the rear. He quickly led the soldiers forward, while Liu Che led the cannoneers out. As he killed the Yongye County soldiers who survived the cannon fire, he ordered his men to bury mines.
After burying all the landmines, Liu Che retreated and hid.
He had discussed this with Mordor and Yan Three.
Based on Mordor's location, the final result would be that Ceng Cheng couldn't withstand the attacks and would have to retreat. In order to cut off Liu Che's path of retreat, setting up landmines was the simplest and most direct strategy.
This was the best arrangement.
When Ceng Cheng realized that his soldiers had been stopped, he lifted his head and looked behind him. Behind his troops, he could hear the rumbling of hooves. Numerous warhorses from Fushan County were rushing towards him at high speed.
If he didn't retreat now, he might not be able to escape.
If he didn't retreat now, he might be taken down.
But how could Ceng Cheng retreat?
Ceng Cheng was someone who had fought in wars before, but he had never seen such a situation before. From the start of the battle, they had schemed against him and weakened his strength. Then, they ambushed him and waited for him to retreat before burying landmines on the original path.
From the start, he was dominated.
Ceng Cheng wasn't willing to be taken down, so he ordered them to retreat and break out of the encirclement.
He wanted his soldiers to open up a path for him.
However, his soldiers didn't listen to his orders. No one stepped forward to continue charging forward.
They were all afraid.
Everyone knew that there were landmines in front of them. Once they stepped on them, they would be blown to death.
They couldn't go forward now.
They couldn't go to their deaths.
Ceng Cheng couldn't mobilize his soldiers, so he couldn't retreat. Screams and shouts kept coming from behind. The sounds were getting closer and closer.
Fushan County's army was here.
They were about to reach his position.
Ceng Cheng sighed and said, "Pass down the order. We surrender."
"The county magistrate has ordered us not to resist anymore. All troops surrender."
The messenger immediately gave the order.
Following Ceng Cheng's order, all the soldiers of Yongye County quickly surrendered and stopped resisting. Everyone put down their weapons and waited quietly at the side.
Mordor led his men closer. He wanted to kill them. However, he didn't expect that when they started to attack, this group of soldiers would choose to surrender.
It was too disappointing.
Mordor was disappointed. So when he came to the front, he asked coldly, "Who is the county magistrate of Yongye County, Ceng Cheng?"
Pairs of eyes immediately looked at Ceng Cheng.
Even if Moledo didn't know, when he looked at Ceng Cheng, he knew who Ceng Cheng was.
Mordor said, "You are Ceng Cheng?"
Ceng Cheng said, "Yes, I am Ceng Cheng, the county magistrate of Yongye County."
"Take him down!"
Mordor waved his hand. The soldiers under his command quickly went forward and detained Ceng Cheng. Then, Mordor ordered his men to take down all the soldiers under Ceng Cheng.
While Mordor's soldiers were moving, Liu Che also returned.
Liu Che led the cannoneers and began to clean up the battlefield.
The landmines had been buried and were useful on the battlefield. Now that the war was over, the landmines had to be removed. Otherwise, if civilians or caravans passed by and stepped on the landmines, it would be a matter of life and death.
Everything was cleared up in less than an hour.
Mordor ordered, "Let's go. We will return to the county magistrate's office immediately."
"Yes, sir!"
All the soldiers answered in unison.
The soldiers' fighting spirit was even higher now. The fighting spirit and spirit of the soldiers were not tempered by daily training. They also needed to be baptized by blood on the battlefield.
If it was just training the soldiers, no matter how fierce they were, they would only be flowers in a greenhouse. They would never be exposed to the wind and sun. Only when they were baptized by blood and fire on the battlefield would an army grow.
What Du Qi's soldiers needed now was such a baptism.
It would integrate the army completely.
It would also stimulate the soldiers' fighting spirit and fighting spirit.
It would make everyone proud of the army.
