When this kind of arrow is pulled back, it will get stuck on the wall. Then the soldiers pull the rope and pull it out together, which can bring down the enemy's wall.

At this time, following Nie Chen's order, armies from all directions fired this special arrow.

The arrows were fired by the broken military crossbow, and then pierced the wall of the village with a bang. Thousands of soldiers rushed forward, pulled the rope, shouted slogans, and pulled out with all their strength.

Pull and loosen, pull and loosen, they have tampered with the wall, and the unstable wall soon starts to shake violently as you are pulled like this.

When the soldiers inside who wanted to surrender saw the wall shaking so violently, they immediately understood and shouted for everyone to push down the wall together.

As the soldiers who wanted to surrender hit the wall, the crumbling wall collapsed.

The Korean soldiers inside immediately ran out in a swarm.

At this time, it was already too late for the supervising team to intercept it.

The four walls of the village collapsed one after another, and the soldiers inside who were determined to surrender swarmed out. No matter how many people the supervising team had, they couldn't defend the perimeter of the entire camp.

Those soldiers who wanted to surrender were not killed by the wind army after escaping, but moved to the rear.

In addition, many of the neutral soldiers also had their thoughts moved.

People all have a herd mentality. When others ran away, I was still warming myself by the fire, sweating profusely. Some people couldn't stand it anymore and ran out one after another.

The Korean troops were running everywhere, escaping in all directions. After the Feng troops received them, they set up several concentration points to guard them.

As more and more soldiers fled, Pang Shou became a little overwhelmed. He couldn't stop them even if he wanted to. He could only keep an eye on the tens of thousands of people in the front camp to prevent them from escaping.

The fire is getting smaller and smaller, and fewer and fewer Korean troops are escaping.

Those who wanted to escape had already run away, and the rest were either burned to death, or those who had no opinions and were still hesitating, or those who were die-hard loyal to Pang Shou. Of course, this group was a very small minority. , because these troops are not his direct descendants from Pang Shou.

In fact, letting a general lead the soldiers of a certain legion has advantages and disadvantages.

The good thing is that these soldiers are very loyal and identified with this general. They will not betray easily and are willing to obey his orders and fight to the death. They have strong cohesion and combat effectiveness and can become an ace regiment and frighten the enemy.

But the downside is that the soldiers are too loyal to the general, so they would rather listen to the general than to the monarch. Once the general has the intention to rebel, the soldiers will respond and follow the general to rebel.

Before the Song Dynasty, this was almost always the case, but since the Song Dynasty, a general rotation system has been implemented, and generals are transferred to other armies every three years.

As a result, the generals do not know the soldiers, and the soldiers do not know the generals. Although the possibility of rebellion is eliminated, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers is greatly reduced.

The only soldier in the Ace Legion whose soldiers were loyal to the general, and the general who was loyal to the court and the emperor, the God of War, was unjustly killed on trumped-up charges because the emperor was worried about rebellion.

Let’s digress and get back to the topic.

An army of twenty to thirty thousand people gathered around Pang Shou. This is just the front camp, and there are many troops in the rear camp. They have not escaped and are still waiting for orders.

The fire is getting smaller and smaller, and the fuel will eventually burn out.

When it got dark, only some charcoal and sparks were still burning in the camp. In the densely packed area around the commander's tent, there were many black burned corpses lying there, exuding a scorched smell. The camp is like hell.

The horrific scene, the corpses like black coal, the dead eyes, and the pungent smell all challenged the nerves of the Korean soldiers.

"Brother, have you brought anything to eat? I'm so hungry."

A sixteen-year-old young soldier looked pitifully at the veteran beside him and asked in a low voice.

He had not been in the army for long, only half a year in total. The veteran brother beside him had been helping him, teaching him how to fight, how to charge, and how to survive on the battlefield.

The veteran glanced at him, sighed, and said,

"Didn't I teach you? As long as you are fighting, you have to bring some dry food with you, because you never know when the battle will last or what the situation will be. Once you are surrounded, you will starve to death. Think about it Over in Hanzhong County, I heard that many brothers surrendered because they were too hungry to stand it."

The veteran took out a pancake from his arms, tore it in half, and then gave the larger half to the young child.

He took the small half piece of sesame cake and said,

"Damn it, I was running too slow last night. In order to save your boy in the camp, I failed to keep up with the large troops and was stopped by the supervising team. Otherwise, I would be a popular drinker opposite now.

I heard that the food in Nie Chen's military camp is very good, including mutton. "

"Hey, I want to eat mutton too."

The young soldier said with a smile while chewing pancakes.

"Want to eat mutton? Okay, look behind you. There is roasted meat. Take a knife and cut off a piece to eat."

After listening to the veteran's words, the young soldier couldn't help but look back, and saw a scorched corpse behind him. Except for the eyes, the body was completely black, and the pale eyes were staring at him.

"vomit…!"

The hair on the young soldier's body stood up, and he fell to the ground in disgust and vomited.

The veteran sneered and said,

"You can't stand this, Chuxi? It's such a waste of food. You deserve to starve to death."

At this moment, shouts suddenly came from the front camp, and the generals told them to get up and assemble.

When the young soldiers saw this, they were about to gather, but were grabbed by the veterans.

"Don't move, lie down, lie behind here."

The veteran pulled him and laid him down on the pile of corpses.

The young soldier understood and hurriedly lay down.

Soon, the other soldiers gathered together. Pang Shou gave the order and the whole army charged and broke out!

Tens of thousands of troops rushed toward the south in a mighty manner. After a moment, the veteran stood up suddenly, pulled the young soldier and ran north.

"Throw the knife away and run to the other side. There will be food to eat!"

The two people ran desperately and finally escaped.

Previously, there was always a patrol team patrolling, and they did not dare to run away.

Now, the supervising team has all charged with the army, and their chance has come.

The two people, who were all charred, saw their father returning the kiss when they saw Feng Jun, wailing and begging for a bowl of rice.

Feng Jun kindly told them that it would be time to eat in another hour, so they should go back and gather together.
