Regardless of which personnel were shouting, the Feng Army on the other side, which was already under tremendous pressure, immediately collapsed. When they saw the Feng Army retreating outside the city, they only had one thought left in their minds, that is, to escape as soon as possible, but because of the ban The number of ladders was greatly reduced, and they were not confident that they could escape.
"Run away," after hesitating for a while, seeing more and more Feng troops exiting the city gate, someone finally shouted out what they were thinking. The voice was like thunder, destroying the will of the surrounding Feng troops. Those who were weak-willed He just wanted to escape to the other side of the river to find a way out.
Tens of thousands of Feng troops instantly fell into chaos. No one needed to remind them. Since there was no river-crossing ladder on the river, some people with good eyesight simply ran towards the ladder leaning against the city wall, hoping to use those ladders to help them cross the river. .
"All personnel are prohibited from retreating," at this moment, the Feng Army generals shouted one after another. They still wanted to control the situation. Even if they really had to withdraw their troops, they had to evacuate in an orderly manner. However, the situation was already difficult to control. Since the Feng Army in the city The bad impact caused by rushing out, people outside the city have no fighting spirit at all.
Immediately afterwards, when the Feng Army on the city discovered that their own personnel below the city had moved away the ladder they used to go down to the city, they became even more panicked. Earlier, when the Star Army fought back, they no longer had the will to fight against the Star Army. They were able to barely resist the Star Army's attack, but now they were even less able to resist the Star Army's attack. Especially when someone shouted that the ladder had been moved away, each and every Phoenix Army was only thinking about how they were going to get down.
Without fighting, the casualties of the Feng Army continued to increase. When some people gave up resistance and turned to find the remaining ladders that could allow them to escape, other Feng Army found it difficult to resist the Star Army's attack.
In the blink of an eye, nearly half of the Feng troops on the city were killed or injured, and the city was still in chaos. Some ladders were directly dismantled by the Feng troops. The Feng troops who were on the ladders and were about to climb the city did not know where they fell. In short, at this moment, those Feng troops In the eyes of Feng Jun, who wanted to escape, those ladders were life-saving straws.
But when some people ran to the river with the ladder, they were horrified to find that the length of the ladder could not reach the other side of the river. So, those people became panic again. Fortunately, there were smart people among the deserters. , they immediately tore off their belts, and then tied the two ladders together, because then the length of the ladder would be enough to reach the opposite side of the river bank.
The division of labor and cooperation are extremely efficient. Those ladders tied together can indeed be erected to the opposite side of the river, but they are too long and the middle position is too fragile. The deserters are pushing and scolding each other and scrambling to get over. They are crowded and tied up. The ladders soon developed load-bearing problems. Many of the ladders either broke in the middle or scattered directly. The Fengjun above screamed and fell into the water.
In terms of water properties, martial arts cultivators are no different from ordinary people. There is a huge difference between those who know how to use water and those who don't know how to use water. However, there are very few people in the Feng Army who know how to use water. Even if someone can float on it, they will be dragged down by others in the end. , when they came up again after drinking a lot of water, the situation was completely out of control. Even if the Feng Army generals scolded them, they still couldn't stop those people from retreating.
"Run away," after shouting one after another, the Feng Army, which had never experienced war, finally became a piece of scattered sand. Even the generals in the city had the idea of escape at this moment. During the battle with the Star Army, they kept avoiding the Star Army. The sharp edge of the military general kept thinking about how to escape unscathed.
After being defeated like a mountain, Zhao Tianyi, who had completely missed the opportunity to fight, made no move to change the situation of the battle. He could only watch his own personnel fleeing in panic.
For Feng Jun who wanted to escape, the way across the river was too small. People were crowded from inside the city to outside the city. I don’t know how many Feng Jun died at the feet of their own people. Feng Jun’s cavalry was the biggest cause of their own casualties. , in the panic, those rogue horses could not even control their masters, and as a result, more and more Feng soldiers died on the horses' hooves.
By this moment, the Feng Army in the city had completely lost their fighting spirit, but the Xing Army was still killing those Feng Army soldiers who no longer resisted. In this battle, the Xing Army killed too many enemies, and every one of them had their hands covered in blood.
The Feng Army who was blocked in the city faced a massacre, and any resistance they had became weak in front of the red-eyed Star Army.
Seeing that there was no room for maneuver in the battle situation, Zhao Tianyi returned to the chariot in despair, and then issued an order: "Put up the remaining ladders and retreat."
After a military order was issued, Zhao Tianyi only hoped that this move could save the lives of his own soldiers as much as possible.
"Yes," after they all agreed, the Feng Army generals shouted one after another, asking the Feng Army on the other side to evacuate.
After the ladders were set up, people on the other side realized the situation and rushed over. The situation got out of control. No matter how the generals tried to stop them, it was of no use. Many people had only one idea, and that was to escape to the other side of the river as soon as possible.
What Zhao Tianyi is worried about now is not the many infantry, but the cavalry who are the first to penetrate into the enemy area. The nearly 10,000 cavalry are the main force of their Feng Army. If all those cavalry die in the city, then their plan to attack the Star Kingdom will be completely redesigned. He may even lose his active position directly. He can no longer face that outcome, but the current situation is too difficult to change.
The situation was over, and the chaos could not be stopped. He could only watch as his casualties continued to increase.
After the situation completely got out of control, the Feng Army generals on the city saw that their subordinates had no intention of fighting and were only focused on escaping. No matter how they tried to stop them, it was useless. At first, they could scare others by killing deserters, but increasingly, After many Fengjun soldiers refused to obey the command, and Ming Jin's signal to withdraw troops came from outside the city, the Fengjun generals simply gave up on the ordinary soldiers.
He was the first to jump down from the city. A height of six or seven meters was nothing to sixth-level and seventh-level martial arts cultivators. As long as they didn't happen to jump onto an upright weapon, everyone would be fine.
Now even the generals above were only focused on escaping for their lives, and the remaining Feng army had no fighting spirit. Some people had no choice but to imitate their generals and jump directly from the city.
If you jump on the people or corpses below, there is a high chance that you will not be killed, but if you jump to other positions, many unexpected situations may occur. After all, they are just ordinary soldiers.
With the large-scale withdrawal of the Feng Army, the battle between the two sides is gradually coming to an end, and it will not take long for the Star Army to achieve a complete victory.
But just when Feng Jun was busy crossing the river to escape, another head appeared on the river. It was the Star Army personnel who had been waiting for the opportunity in the distance. After the previous plan was successful, Lan Wu sent nearly a thousand people from They browsed the city wall from the north to the south and went down to the moat, and then quietly swam towards the city gate. When the Feng Army retreated with their troops, those people quickly approached the city gate.
Speaking of which, it was very difficult for them to approach the city gate with those corpses, and they had to endure the pungent smell of blood all the time. It can be said that each of them relied entirely on their will to support them.
But the time has come, and they must implement the third step of the plan, which is to destroy the ladders erected on both sides of the river and kill Feng Jun who fell into the water.
After lurking to the approximate location, thousands of star troops took action one after another, waving the weapons in their hands high. When Feng Jun traced them with bows and arrows, the wooden ladders were cut directly by them. For a moment, The sound of breaking wood echoed with the sound of those Fengjun falling into the water. At first, the Fengjun archers guarding the river bank were able to kill some, but after their people fell into the water, the Fengjun had no choice but to stop shooting.
Then when the Star Army fell into the river and screamed, what awaited them was a fatal attack from the Star Army.
With one sword strike, those star troops who were familiar with the water's properties could kill the unprepared Feng troops in the water as easily as chopping vegetables, with blood dripping from the water.
Unable to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy, when Zhao Tianyi and others discovered that there were a large number of enemy troops in the river, their expressions changed drastically. However, they were helpless about the situation in the river. He didn't even understand land warfare, so how could he understand it? In the water battle, Zhao Tianyi finally ordered the Feng army, who knew how to swim, to go down the river after being reminded by his own general to save their people while dealing with the enemy troops in the river. The situation finally improved.
Time passed little by little. After a while, the Star Army in the city finally broke out of the city gate. Under the command of Lan Xu, they quickly extended the battle line and spread to both sides of the city gate. Those Feng troops who only focused on escaping and abandoning their armor were attacked by sharp weapons. With no ability to fight back, they fell one after another. At this point in the battle, there was no longer any suspense.
As the Star Army continued to press forward, some Phoenix troops simply stepped on the corpses floating in the river and those who were still struggling in the water and quickly ran forward because they had no ladders to use. Under extreme fear, their bodies directly erupted with astonishing energy. strength.
There are still broken ladder joints in the water. Many Fengjun actually used this method to successfully run to the other side. Of course, some people also fell into the water because of this. However, after this method spread, more and more Fengjun... When you start trying, the chances of success in front of you are low, but for those behind you, the chances of success in crossing the river are getting higher and higher because of the people in front of you.
