Du Qi ordered, "Liu Che, Mordor!"
"Yes, sir!"
Liu Che and Mordor stepped forward together.
Both of their faces were brimming with fighting spirit. They had been waiting outside the Ming army's camp for a long time. Now, they could finally go to war.
Therefore, both of them were very excited.
Du Qi ordered, "Send out the troops and meet the enemy head-on!"
"Yes, sir!"
Liu Che and Mordor responded in unison.
Among the two of them, Liu Che was in charge of commanding the army, while Mordor was the general in charge of charging. Following Liu Che's order, the tens of thousands of troops under Du Qi's command charged out together.
"Kill! Today is the day to defeat the enemy. Charge!"
Liu Che shouted.
His eyes were incomparably sharp and filled with high fighting spirit.
He held a large saber and took the lead in charging out. Mordor followed beside Liu Che. The two of them kept charging forward. In a short time, they had already charged to the front.
In the blink of an eye, the armies of both sides had clashed.
Mordor raised the golden drum hammer in his hand and smashed it down. The hammer swept across, and with a bang, it landed on the chest of a Ming Kingdom soldier.
In an instant, the soldier's chest caved in and he spat out blood.
His body was sent flying.
The hammer in Moledo's hands was like an extension of his body. He continued to attack. In a short period of time, he had already swept the area. None of the Ming Nation's soldiers dared to approach him.
They were all scared of being killed.
As Mordor charged forward, the Ming Kingdom soldiers kept retreating. It was not that no one wanted to continue charging forward. The problem was that if they continued to charge forward, they would only be sending themselves to their deaths. Therefore, the end result was that they were continuously slaughtered and hammered to death.
Therefore, no one charged forward at all.
Under the leadership of Mordor, Xia Xia's soldiers attacked even more fiercely.
While Liu Che was leading his troops to charge, he was also giving commands. He led his men to break through the Ming Nation's defense line. As he kept charging forward, he raised his head to look in Mordor's direction and shook his head.
There was nothing he could do about it.
Mordor was too strong.
Mordor's strength was unique among Du Qi's subordinates. No one could compare to him.
No matter what, the entire Xia Xia's army continued to break through and charge forward. In a short period of time, they had already broken through the defensive line and continued to charge forward.
Although the battle between the two sides was still ongoing, from afar, one could see that the Ming army was constantly charging forward. In the blink of an eye, they were suppressed again and again.
On the other hand, Xia's army was constantly breaking through and charging forward.
On the battlefield, Xia Xia's side had the upper hand.
Du Qi's men were watching from the rear. He had already retreated to a slope. Because standing on the slope, he could clearly see the situation on the battlefield. He could see that the mighty torrent was eroding forward bit by bit and constantly pushing forward.
This process was relatively slow at the moment.
However, it was a process of breaking through the defenses.
In the beginning, it was slow because the Ming army was still resisting and resisting. When they really broke through the enemy's defense, it was like a hot knife through butter. There was no longer any influence.
Du Qi's gaze turned. With the help of the binoculars, he looked in the direction of the Ming army's camp in the distance.
Because the distance that the binoculars could see was limited, Du Qi was now a thousand steps away from the camp. Therefore, although he could see the general situation, he could not see it clearly.
Du Qi saw Guerha and Lan Jiuzhen. Although he could not see the specific expressions on their faces, he could imagine that they were not in a good mood at the moment.
Because there was no suspense in this battle.
The Ming army would definitely lose!
Guerha seemed to have used serious injuries to boost the morale of the army. However, there was also a limit to this kind of encouragement. If the combat strength of both sides was equal, and Guerha's army was only slightly weaker, then with Guerha's encouragement, the soldiers could erupt with tyrannical combat strength and fight with Xia Xia's army.
The problem was that the Ming army lacked a fierce general to guard it, and even more so, they lacked fighting spirit. Therefore, in a hand-to-hand battle like this, the Ming army was quickly defeated. When the army showed signs of being defeated, all of Guerha's measures of rewards were useless.
On the contrary, Xia Xia's roping in and Luo Binwang's previous words began to work.
This was how humans were.
They habitually numbed themselves and comforted themselves.
Now that they could not stop it, according to Luo Binwang, if they submitted to Xia Xia, then everyone would be able to live a good life and everyone would be able to live a happy life.
This was a good outcome.
Therefore, under such circumstances, the combat strength of the army plummeted and became increasingly unstoppable.
As time went by, the entire army gradually could not hold on.
They began to retreat and retreat.
When Guerha and Lan Jiuzhen saw this scene, their expressions became more solemn. Guerha's slightly pale face was also filled with anger and unwillingness. He looked at Lan Jiuzhen and said, "Lan Qing, what should we do now? Du Qi's army is too strong. Our army is simply too weak to withstand a single blow. Previously, when we were at the border, we fought with Du Qi and lost. Now that we have retreated to Zhou Mountain, if we are defeated again. It will be difficult to stop Du Qi's attack. "
Lan Jiuzhen was also extremely anxious. He looked at Guerha and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, we definitely can't stop Du Qi's attack now. I suggest that we immediately retreat and stop fighting with Du Qi's army. If we retreat now, we can still retreat to the capital and rely on the defense of the city. "
"No!"
Gu Erha refused without hesitation.
His eyes were red as he clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. "Du Qi killed my son. I swear I won't stop until I kill Du Qi. The heir of my Ming Kingdom was buried in Du Qi's hands. I'm not a man if I don't avenge him. "
"You're wrong, Your Majesty," said Lan Jiuzhen.
"How am I wrong?" Guerha asked. "My son was killed and the only heir of my Ming Kingdom is dead. Right now, I want to avenge Cheng Ye. Am I wrong? "
"Revenge is not wrong, Your Majesty," said Lan Jiuzhen. "But there's no way to do so now. If there's even the slightest chance to kill Du Qi and defeat Xia's army, we'll naturally fight to the death. "
"The problem is, we don't have the chance.
Since there's no chance, why should we fight to the death? "
"Fighting at this time is just courting death."
Lan Jiuzhen's eyes were sharp as he said in a deep voice, "That's why we must endure the humiliation to avenge the Crown Prince. We can only withdraw to the capital and rely on the capital to defend it. Then, we can seek reinforcements. Only then will we have the chance to take revenge. Otherwise, we'll only be sending the army to the grave and our lives to the grave. Please reconsider, Your Majesty. "
Guerha immediately fell into silence.
Lan Jiuzhen's words made sense.
There was nothing wrong with this matter. Fighting at this time would only be delivering their heads to the enemy. After all, Xia Xia's army already had the absolute advantage. Continuing to fight at this time would only be a meaningless sacrifice, which was the least worthwhile.
"We must take revenge, Your Majesty." Lan Jiuzhen continued, "Not only must we kill Du Qi and Luo Binwang, but we must also slaughter Xia Xia's men. So, we'll retreat first and wait until we return to Red Flash. We'll use the army to resist and then consider a counterattack strategy. "
"Alas …"
Guerha sighed.
He looked at Lan Jiuzhen and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Lan Qing. Chengye is also your nephew, and he's dead. As his uncle, you're also grieving. But you still have to help this king. It's not easy for you. "
Lan Jiuzhen breathed a sigh of relief.
Is he willing to listen to my advice?
"I'm fine, Your Majesty," said Lan Jiuzhen. "Now is not the time to delay. We must seize the time to evacuate. If we continue to delay, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
"Then let's evacuate," said Guerha.
"I'll bring up the rear for this evacuation," said Lan Jiuzhen. "Your Majesty, please take your personal guards and evacuate first. I'll stay behind and organize the army to fight again to delay for a while. Then, we'll evacuate to avoid being completely annihilated. "
"That won't do," said Guerha. "How can I let you bring up the rear?"
Lan Jiuzhen was his wife's uncle. Under such circumstances, Lan Jiuzhen was different from Zhang Ji. Zhang Ji was a general under Guerha's command. It was fine if he died, but if Lan Jiuzhen died, how would he explain it to his wife when he returned?
"There's no need to say more, Your Majesty," said Lan Jiuzhen. "I've decided to bring up the rear. There's no need to delay this matter. You evacuate first, and I'll come back later. I'm not leading the army to charge the enemy lines, so you don't have to worry. "
Guerha stared at Lan Jiuzhen.
He was very worried.
"Your Majesty, please listen to my advice," said Lan Jiuzhen. "You want revenge, and so do I. I won't die if I don't kill Du Qi. I want to see Luo Binwang and Du Qi killed with my own eyes. I want to see them be cut into pieces. "
"Alright!"
Guerha nodded.
He immediately led his personal guards to the rear camp and left.
Lan Jiuzhen turned to look at the scene of fighting outside the camp. He did not withdraw for the time being. In fact, not only did he not retreat, he even immediately ordered his subordinates to beat the drums to encourage the soldiers who were in the midst of fighting.
Rumble!
The drums rumbled and reverberated on the battlefield.
The Ming army kept charging, but such a charge was like a wave hitting a boulder. It had no effect at all. The offensive of Xia Xia's army was still advancing without any hindrance.
Time continued to pass.
As time went on, the Ming army's offensive became weaker and weaker. Instead, the momentum of their retreat became greater and greater.
It was getting harder and harder to stop them.
Lan Jiuzhen saw that about fifteen minutes had passed and guessed that Guerha had gone far. He did not waste any more time and immediately ordered, "Pass down the order, retreat, retreat quickly!"
As soon as the order was given, he began to retreat.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! "
The sound of gongs continued to ring out.
The sound of the gong did not stop. All of the Ming soldiers stopped fighting and started to turn around and retreat.
As soon as the army retreated, they were immediately attacked.
Du Qi's army's attack became fiercer and fiercer. As they killed their way through, countless Ming soldiers died. However, such an attack was only to kill the Ming soldiers. Guerha and Lan Jiuzhen had already left and could not catch up to them.
Du Qi was not in a hurry.
It was enough to win this battle.
Du Qi relaxed and waited quietly for the time being.
Waiting for the troops to return.
