Just then, gunshots rang out.
Snap snap snap...
Snap snap snap...
Bullets streaked across the night sky like raindrops.
The Persian soldiers who weren't killed on the spot rushed outwards, knowing that staying put meant certain death.
These Persian soldiers were almost all on fire. They screamed as they charged out, some falling to the ground and being trampled to death.
Some soldiers had just rushed out of the barracks when they were met with a hail of bullets.
The soldiers of the Persian Empire fell in droves, like wheat cut down by a knife.
No matter how brave they are in normal times, they are nothing but a fart in the face of modern weapons.
"Your Highness, there are people outside, we are surrounded."
"Your Highness, the weapon in the opponent's hand is truly formidable; it can produce a thunderous sound."
"Our empire's warriors couldn't break through at all; our brothers just fell in droves."
They are now facing a dilemma: they cannot break through the enemy lines, and if they retreat, they will be surrounded by raging flames.
The soldiers who had rushed along the mountain road were terrified when they saw the raging fire ahead.
"What's going on ahead? How did such a huge fire suddenly break out? Who set this fire? I wonder what Your Highness should do?"
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat now! If we don't retreat, the consequences will be unimaginable. We can't stay here any longer; staying here means certain death."
Upon seeing the mountain road and the hundreds of thousands of Persian soldiers, they knew that if they went any further, the raging fire would engulf them. Going any further would mean certain death, so they all turned around and fled into the distance.
These camel riders were gathered in one place, and it was simply wishful thinking and a pipe dream for them to turn around on the spot.
The explosions inside the military camp grew louder and louder.
The dense gunfire terrified everyone present.
"Retreat! Retreat! Retreat immediately!"
"If we don't retreat now, it'll all be over."
"His Highness has already stormed into the military camp. I wonder how he is now."
"We can't lose His Highness, but if we do, the consequences would be unimaginable. His Highness can't be allowed to suffer any harm."
Even so, some people still cared about the safety of the Persian prince.
Just then, the raging fire in the military camp slowly died down, and the air was filled with the aroma of roasted meat.
The air was thick with the stench of blood. The camel riders in the camp were in a terrible state from the bombing; some of them were blown dozens of meters away, flying out of the camp.
The Persian prince was also seriously injured in the bombing.
These guys had never experienced a war like this before; they had no idea that war could be fought this way.
The men in the military camp approached the Persian prince and spoke loudly.
"Your Highness, we'll protect you. Get out of here immediately, or the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Your Highness, we should fight our way out. We can't stay here any longer. If we do, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"What kind of weapon is that? We are no match for them at all. If we stay here any longer, we will all die here."
"In short, we must do everything in our power to protect His Highness the Prince. Otherwise, we will be guilty of dereliction of duty and His Majesty the King will not let us off the hook."
Upon hearing this, the Persian prince coughed up a mouthful of blood. At this moment, how could the Persian prince have the strength to fight his way out? The Persian prince shook his head.
"Don't worry about me, I'm completely finished now. I'm so angry. I didn't even see what the other person looked like, and I've already been beaten like this."
“These people are truly vicious. They occupied our land and beat me up like this. I have never felt so powerless as I do today.”
These people deserve to die, but I can't do anything about them. It makes me so angry.
As the Persian prince spoke, he coughed up mouthfuls of blood. At this moment, he had never felt so angry and powerless as he did today.
"Your Highness, if we don't break out, we should retreat now. We can't stay here any longer; the consequences would be unimaginable."
"We can't stay here any longer. If we continue to move forward, it will be tantamount to suicide. It's better for us to retreat as soon as possible."
The military camp was littered with blood and gore, littered with severed limbs and mutilated bodies. Many soldiers were already in a state of panic and disarray. They had suffered heavy losses, with over 80% of their fighting capacity gone.
It is known that for an army to avoid collapse, it simply cannot function like this.
Everyone wanted to either rush out of the camp or retreat as quickly as possible. But neither option seemed feasible.
Huo Qubing loudly issued the order.
"What are you all standing there for? Charge forward and kill them without mercy!"
With a command given.
The resounding bugle call to charge rang out instantly.
These soldiers, wielding their swords, charged into the military camp.
Everyone was already fighting with all their might, and at this moment they all wanted to kill each other. The sabers gleamed coldly in the moonlight.
The Persian soldiers only carried scimitars.
These curves are nothing compared to the power of the horse-slaying sword.
These sabers are all over two meters long, and some of them can reach three meters in length.
Wherever the sword passed, these people were shattered into pieces.
The men who were preparing to charge forward were now completely shocked. They never expected things to turn out this way, and the situation was far beyond their wildest imaginations. Now, forget about breaking out of the camp; they'd be lucky to even escape safely.
"Your Highness, we must retreat immediately. If we don't, the consequences will be unimaginable. We are no match for them. They are simply too fierce."
"Protect His Highness and retreat. If we don't retreat now, we'll be in real trouble."
"We never expected things to turn out this way. None of us ever imagined that we would encounter such strong resistance from the other side."
