After exclaiming, his expression suddenly changed, and he hurriedly tried to break away from Lan Xu's control, but failed to break free, and because of his inner panic, his momentum weakened a bit.
On the contrary, Lan Xu was extremely calm at the moment. Even though his left hand had been torn apart by the force of the gun blade, and his body was completely bruised, he still did not let go. After gritting his teeth, he turned his right hand, and when Zhou Hai was trying his best to break away from the spear , he held a simple knife in one hand and chopped straight from top to bottom towards the Thursday sea gate.
The incident happened suddenly. Seeing Pu Dao getting closer and closer to him, Zhou Hai, who had not yet broken free, became more and more nervous. In order not to be injured by the blade, he simply pushed the spear diagonally in front of Lan Xu with both hands. Xiang Lan Xu's chest.
At the critical moment, Zhou Hai made a bold decision to move his troops dangerously and use offense as defense, just to interrupt Lan Xu's offensive.
With the force of both hands, the spear in his hand quickly approached Lan Xu's chest. At this moment, the sword in Lan Xu's hand was less than a foot away from him. If he continued, it would be a lose-lose outcome for both sides.
But seeing that Pu Dao was about to strike down, the spear point was still unable to hit Lan Xu. After Pu Dao got closer to him, Zhou Zhouhai could not bear the huge psychological pressure. He felt guilty and let go of the weapon in his hand, and then quickly moved toward him. Back away.
After retreating to a safe position, without saying a word, Zhou Hai turned around and ran towards his mount. Because without weapons, there was no chance of winning. At the moment, he only had the idea of escape.
However, just because he wanted to run away didn't mean that Lan Xu would let him go. After throwing away the spear in his hand, he dragged the knife on the ground. Lan Xu chased him from behind at a very fast speed, and in the blink of an eye he had already caught up to Zhou Haijin.
When Zhou Hai jumped up and was about to fly onto his horse, the simple knife in Lan Xu's hand came out and stabbed directly into Zhou Hai.
"Ah," with a scream, Zhou Hai, who was hit hard, was shot down to the ground.
The generous knife had penetrated his body. When the horse was frightened and running, Lan Xu slowed down immediately when he saw this. After walking closer to take a look at Zhou Hai, who was seriously injured and dying, he directly pulled out the knife from Zhou Hai. .
"Ah" was another scream. Seeing Lan Xu approaching, Zhou Hai, who was seriously injured, was frightened and wanted to get up and run away. Unfortunately, he struggled several times but failed. Finally, he received a fatal blow from Lan Xu. In the end, he screamed He couldn't even scream, and he was so proud that he died directly under Lan Xu's sword.
"General Lan is mighty," the Star Kingdom defenders on the city saw a series of scenes of Zhou Hai being killed. After recovering from the shock, the defenders spontaneously shouted and cheered for Lan Xu.
In the past, Feng Jun was too loud when cheering for Zhou Hai. They could only look at each other's airs, and each of them was holding a breath of bad breath in their hearts. Now that Zhou Hai was killed, all the Star Army members felt more comfortable while shouting. .
"Congratulations to General Lan for the victory." Immediately afterwards, all the Star Army generals on the tower reacted and congratulated Lan Xu. Lan Xu's killing of Zhou Hai was of great significance to them.
At the same time, hearing various sounds coming from behind, Lan Xu at the bottom of the city became calmer and calmer. He then returned to his mount with a long knife in three steps and two steps, jumped on the horse and ran straight towards the suspension bridge.
"Marshal, do you want to give chase?" On the Feng Army side, many generals saw that their vanguard general died tragically under the enemy's sword, and saw that Lan Xu was about to return to the city. As soon as they realized what they were doing, they immediately asked Xu Tianyi to go out to fight. It seemed that they all thought they could use it to fight. This opportunity hits town.
But Zhao Tianyi did not respond to them in time and just asked them to wait because they were still a long way away from the location of the suspension bridge. No one could pass through the suspension bridge before it was pulled up.
Seeing Lan Xu's leaving figure, and Lan Wu's expression on the tower that had not changed from beginning to end, Zhao Tianyi sighed, and then signaled the Feng Army generals next to him to prepare to withdraw.
"Raise the bridge," at the same time, Lan Xu, who was halfway up the suspension bridge, shouted directly.
With the sound of the rope driving the pulley, the long suspension bridge slowly rose, and finally Lan Xu rode the horse all the way to the city.
"Today Zhao has fully experienced Marshal Lan's heroic demeanor. It is indeed extraordinary. I will formally lead troops to attack the city in the future. I hope Marshal Lan will be ready." Zhao Tianyi stood up slowly and directly issued a letter of challenge to Lan Wu.
"I'll stay with you until the end," Lan Wu, who was on the tower, looked stern and responded firmly.
"General, should we take advantage of the situation and charge out?" Thinking that they had just killed the enemy's vanguard general, the enemy's morale must have been greatly reduced. It was a good opportunity for them to take the initiative. A Star Army general directly asked Lan Wu for orders.
"No need," shook his head, but Lan Wu didn't think so. Since the other party dared to call for formation, it was enough to show that the other party was ready to attack. Otherwise, they would not bet on the morale of a general and the entire army. Now if they directly If you rush out, you may be able to gain a certain advantage at first, but you will definitely lose to the enemy later.
"I'm taking the liberty of you." Seeing Lan Wu reject his proposal, the general immediately realized his mistake.
At the same time, other star army generals who had the same idea could only say no more. Although they didn't understand Lan Wu's plan, they knew they should believe Lan Wu.
"Withdraw the troops." After some Feng troops went to bring back Zhou Hai's body, Xu Tianyi officially ordered the withdrawal. The 50,000 soldiers moved in unison without any signs of panic. The orderly manner in which the troops were withdrawn was enough to prove that it was indeed not suitable for the Star Army to attack now.
"Reporting to the marshal, I am glad that I have lived up to my command," as he was speaking, Lan Xuzhi came up from the city with great satisfaction. He had wiped away his previous anger. He was now very happy about killing Zhou Hai with his own hands just now.
"Lan Xu, you don't have to be too happy. No matter when the enemy attacks the city again, you will always be the vanguard general of the Star Army." Seeing Lan Xu's joy, Lan Wu's expression did not change much.
"The general understands," and Lan Wu's tone seemed not quite right. No matter how other generals congratulated him, most of Lan Xu's interest was wiped out.
"Get up," Lan Wu nodded, and his eyes returned to Feng Jun.
Following his gaze, Lan Xu, who had already stood up, also looked down the city. Zhou Hai's body had been taken away by Feng Jun. Tens of thousands of Feng Jun were evacuating. The neat queue showed Feng Jun's well-trained skills. At that moment, he I understood Lan Wu's intention of telling him not to be happy too early.
"Marshal, what should we do next?" After Feng Jun walked away, a general asked Lan Wu for instructions.
"Pass the order, the whole army is ready to fight at all times," Lan Wu glanced at the many Star Army generals in front of him and continued: "Today Lan Xu killed the enemy general in public to show off the power of our army. General Li, I ordered You should quickly report this matter to the three armies.”
"Yes," the next moment, General Li, who was named by Lan Wu in person, immediately took the order and left.
"The rest of the people will follow me to the main account to discuss matters." Zhao Tianyi had just issued a letter of war to them. They must make careful arrangements as soon as possible. In order to ensure the smooth progress of the next war, Lan Wu planned to continue to discuss with a group of generals in the meeting hall. combat strategy.
Some time later, when Lan Wu was discussing with the generals how to deal with the Feng army's siege, news about Lan Xu's killing of Zhou Hai had spread in the military camp. The morale of the army increased rapidly, and all the generals rushed to discuss the matter. , everyone was very happy about Lan Xu's killing of Zhou Hai.
While excited, many people were deeply encouraged. Since Zhou Hai was the main reason for their successive defeats, Zhou Hai's death had a great effect on improving the morale of the Star Army. It was big enough to revive the morale of the Star Army. If it were early Knowing that the benefits of this duel to the Star Army were far greater than they expected, Zhao Tianyi would not take the risk of sending Zhou Zhouhai to fight, but it was a pity that everything was a foregone conclusion.
All in all, for the original defenders, the death of Zhou Hai in the past two days was the most satisfying thing for them.
In fact, Lan Wu deliberately spread the news of Zhou Hai's death in the battle to the entire army just to boost the morale of the army. Even if the morale of the entire army cannot be restored to normal in a short time, as long as they do something that can inspire the morale of the army, the Star Army's Overall morale will definitely get better and better.
"Why didn't they fight in the end?" Shortly after receiving the notice on the school grounds, Lu Yunyou and the others returned to their original residence. Thinking that they should take advantage of the situation to pursue them, Lu Yunyou expressed his doubts.
"The general who just came to deliver the message has already said that after Thursday's naval battle, the enemy's commander directly ordered the withdrawal without giving us a chance to send troops." It was Gao Li who replied. In fact, he was also very confused as to why there was no fight today.
"Can't we go out of the city to chase him?" Lu Yunyou raised his eyebrows and asked the next question.
"How can it be so easy to chase? What if they set up an ambush halfway?" Gao Li was the one who replied, but he could answer this question for Lu Yunyou.
