On the battlefield.
There was indeed a huge gap in strength between the two sides, even though Xu Shanbao's army was led by him personally and he personally went into battle to kill the enemy!
But the effect was not very good, because they no longer had the energy and spirit to fight.
On the other hand, on Lu Yun's side, the imperial soldiers all had ruthless and murderous looks on their faces!
It was as if they could eat up all their enemies with just one look, like wild beasts.
The difference between the two quickly became apparent.
What made Xu Shanbao even more angry was that the soldiers under his command not only had no morale, but were also extremely cowardly.
I don’t even dare to fight!
Even I have always been regarded as a pioneer!
Xu Shanbao glanced behind him and saw the soldiers under Zhou Zhengtian Tower. They all seemed to be hiding from the generals he brought with him.
Their own troops were in the vanguard, while their people were hiding in the back, complaining and whining, not even bothering to shoot an arrow.
At this moment, Xu Shanbao suddenly reacted.
Zhou Zhengtian said some nice things last night, but today he still wants to use the imperial army to weaken his own strength and strengthen himself instead.
This kind of thinking is so easy to see through, even if he is a big and strong man, he can understand it!
Zhou Zhengtian is so shameless!
Although they were allies, he acted very suspicious, as if everyone in the world was out to harm him.
Even now, at this critical moment of life and death, you still refuse to let go of your prejudices and previous biases, and still do this!
What exactly does he want?
When Xu Shanbao thought of this, he was so angry that he gave up his city and came to him for help, wanting the two of them to cooperate, but now he has become the one being fooled.
It seems that he also needs to prepare...
In this way, the battle lasted for half an hour, and Xu Shanbao's soldiers had lost a lot of casualties. He realized that he could not go on like this.
Until now, Zhou Zhengtian's men are still rushing at the back, waiting for something, and not using their full strength at all!
Xu Shanbao was furious at this moment. He shouted, "Go back!"
"Go back!"
"I'm not going to fight anymore. I'm going back to the city."
“I’m so angry!”
Upon hearing this, the generals and soldiers under Xu Shanbao turned their horses around and prepared to leave.
However, at this moment, Zhou Zhengtian on the city wall ordered the city gates to be closed.
He shouted loudly, "General, why did you return for no reason? I didn't order you to come back."
"The war still needs to continue. Don't you still have a lot of soldiers under your command? Is this the end of it?"
Xu Shanbao was stunned for a moment. At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill on his back and suddenly reacted.
Could it be that Zhou Zhengtian wants to trap himself under this city and be killed?
Then he can reap the benefits...
Good, good, good! This guy really has some skills.
Xu Shanbao also showed a very frightened expression at this moment.
"Please let me in quickly. I'm hungry. I can't stand it any longer. General Zhou, let's fight another day. I don't know what's going on right now."
"Maybe I didn't sleep well last night. You should let me go in first."
"The soldiers outside are waiting."
Zhou Zhengtian was stunned for a moment. He was still hesitating whether to let this guy in.
His original intention was actually very simple, which was to use the imperial court's troops to completely deplete the power of Xu Shanbao's subordinates.
Even if it is reduced by half, that is completely fine.
But now this number is far from being achieved.
At this moment, Lu Yun also discovered this situation on the opposite side.
He saw Xu Shanbao wanted to bring people back to the city, but Zhou Zhengtian refused to open the city gate.
Lu Yun also realized that the two of them were truly incompatible.
Zhou Zhengtian wanted to use the imperial troops under his command to weaken the power in Xu Shanbao's hands.
He smiled at this moment. It seemed that the information provided by his people was true and there was no mistake.
The reason why they want to do this is very simple. It is nothing more than fighting among themselves and weakening each other's strength. Even at this time, they are still fighting among themselves.
"well……"
"It's hard to achieve anything great. With such a suspicious personality, even if you are really strong, you will be caught by others."
"I thought Zhou Zhengtian was some kind of hero, but I didn't expect him to have such a personality."
Lu Yun sighed with some regret. This was indeed something he had not expected.
"Xu Sanwa, come here."
Lu Yun shouted, and soon Xu Sanwa came over on a horse and asked in confusion.
"Eunuch Lu, what's wrong?"
"Sound the retreat, we won't fight anymore, let's go back and eat."
"Ah?" Xu Sanwa was stunned. What was going on?
Not fighting anymore?
Going back to eat now?
"But……"
"But I see that the enemy army on the other side seems to be in internal strife. They want to return to the city, but Zhou Zhengtian won't let them. Isn't that..."
"Don't worry, letting them go back is the best thing for us. We can avoid bloodshed. Believe me, they will definitely fight among themselves. At least Xu Shanbao is very angry now."
"Oh... I see."
Although Xu Sanwa was a rough man, after this period of time, he was able to basically understand the conspiracies and intrigues on the battlefield.
