The booming explosions and crisp gunshots echoed across the open field.
In the dim light of the explosion, Dianwang Shizhi could even see the chaotic scene in the wilderness.
Only now did the King of Dian recover from his shock.
They really encountered the army of Prince Xin!
But how is that possible?
The King of Dian frowned, his heart pounding, unable to believe what he was seeing.
It should be noted that the King of Dian originally chose to retreat from Dianchi City in order to avoid the army of the King of Xin.
However, they never expected that they would encounter the army of Prince Xin as soon as they retreated to Chuxiong City.
The most critical issue was that the Dian King's forces remained encamped in the wilderness and did not enter the city.
Therefore, the Dian King's troops could only rely on their camps to resist and defend against the attack of the Xin King's army.
However, the situation has not developed in a very desirable way.
In the distance, under the fierce bombardment of the Prince Xin's army's artillery, the densely packed tents in the center of the camp began to be affected by the blast waves, and sparks flew everywhere.
Some soldiers of the Dian King's army who had not yet reacted were directly killed by the bombs or burned to death.
Severed limbs lay scattered on the ground!
A strong, pungent smell of blood filled the air.
The whole situation looks exceptionally bad.
Meanwhile, outside the camp, soldiers of Prince Xin's army had already charged in.
One by one, flintlock muskets made in Dongning were aimed at the soldiers of the Dian King's army, and the triggers were pulled.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Under the barrage of bullets, countless soldiers of the Dian King's army were shot dead on the spot.
Night fighting was also a strength of the Divine Warriors.
As for the army of the Dian King, they had never fought a night battle.
The fact that the situation was so bad from the very beginning made the Dian King's army very panicked.
In the distance, Ma Dazhi, commander of the First Division of the Divine Valiant Army, held binoculars and looked at the battlefield situation in the darkness, his brows furrowed.
The night was deep, and the situation on the battlefield was not very clear.
However, a glimpse could still be seen in the faint light from the explosion.
The valiant soldiers quickly charged into the enemy ranks, and a bloodbath ensued.
While the First Division was fighting fiercely, the Second and Third Divisions of the Divine Valiant Army also attacked from the northeast and north.
When so many soldiers of the Prince of Xin's army appeared from another direction, the army of the Prince of Dian became even more terrified.
The situation became even more chaotic.
"Enemy troops have appeared in the rear!"
"What? The rear?"
One of the generals frowned and exclaimed, "Are we surrounded?"
Are we surrounded?
The words of this Yunnan general were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly creating ripples.
The Yunnan soldiers around him felt a jolt of fear upon hearing this.
They were originally following the King of Dian, hoping to evacuate and escape.
Unexpectedly, not long after evacuating Dianchi City, they found themselves in a den of thieves!
What should we do?!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The violent explosion of the grenade instantly shattered the soldiers' thoughts.
The endless flames of war have also spread to this area.
"Kill them!"
Loud shouts echoed across the wilderness.
Fully armed and valiant soldiers, bursting with high morale, charged straight in.
The roars were deafening, the momentum was earth-shattering, and the spirit soared to the heavens!
Under the siege of three divisions of the Divine Valiant Army, the Yunnan Army suffered heavy casualties.
The fighting continued from nightfall until dawn, leaving the ground piled high with corpses.
The soldiers of the Yunnan Army were all terrified.
The fighting lasted all night and was almost entirely a one-sided massacre.
After suffering heavy casualties, the Yunnan Army troops, who were already terrified, completely lost their will to fight.
Within the encirclement, the King of Dian, hiding in a corner, had bloodshot eyes.
He craned his neck and looked around.
The strong smell of blood in the air made the King of Dian frown.
"Where is Prince Xin's army located?"
The King of Dian asked.
"Your Highness, I don't know!"
His trusted confidant shook his head and said, "The battlefield is too chaotic; we can't see clearly. It's probably not far off!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
No sooner had he finished speaking than a series of explosions suddenly erupted from ahead.
After several Yunnan soldiers were killed in the explosion, squads of Prince Xin's army charged in.
"Your Highness, look!"
The confidant's eyes widened, and he said with some fear, "The Prince of Xin's army is coming!"
"ah?"
The King of Dian exclaimed in surprise and had just stood up when a bullet shot straight toward him.
puff!
The bullet entered the Dian King's neck, piercing through it and severing the carotid artery.
Instantly, thick, warm blood flowed down from her neck.
Hehe!
The King of Dian opened his mouth and made a difficult, muffled sound.
He stretched out his hands, covering his neck, and thick blood flowed down between his fingers, instantly soaking his clothes.
At this moment, the King of Dian was trembling violently all over.
Even his eyes held a hint of fear.
That was the fear before death.
His eyes were filled with a longing for life.
However, all of this is now impossible!
Before long, the King of Dian's eyes became unfocused and gradually lost their luster.
Meanwhile, soldiers of the Divine Valiant Army, armed with guns, continued their charge towards this location from afar.
"kill!"
Each shout was like a thunderclap, echoing across the wilderness.
