One of the enemy generals looked to his left and right and began to reorganize his rocket troops, drawing their bows and nocking them.
Liang Jie strode forward, but suddenly stopped.
He knew he couldn't go any further.
Liang Jie gazed at the enemy general, his shrewd eyes revealing an unwavering determination to win.
"You dare to embarrass yourself with such a trivial trick?"
"A petty trick?" the enemy general sneered. "You call us a petty trick? Haven't you been kept in limbo by our petty tricks for days?"
Because of Liang Jie and Ling Yun and Ling Zhi, the enemy's morale became unstable.
They guarded this place day and night, but how did the soldiers of Dongjin manage to destroy the gunpowder they had buried?
"Archers, prepare!" the enemy general commanded.
Their bows and arrows, glowing with fire, were ready to be unleashed at any moment, and began to rapidly approach the Dongjin army.
Similarly, the Dongjin soldiers at the front had already prepared their defensive shields at top speed to block the enemy's flaming arrows.
but,
The enemy has made thorough preparations.
Their arrows, sparking, rained down wave after wave.
This left Liang Jie and his soldiers behind him overwhelmed.
Liang Jie narrowed his eyes, his face showing panic, and then he said urgently:
"Retreat!"
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
Ling Yun and Ling Zhi also gave urgent orders, and the soldiers took their shields and retreated while blocking the enemy's advance.
Judging from the looks of it, they were clearly no match for the enemy's flaming arrows.
"Hahaha, the Dongjin army is scared! Encircle and annihilate them, quick!" Seeing Liang Jie and Ling Yun and Ling Zhi leading their troops to retreat, the enemy's panic had already dissipated.
"Pursue! Pursue!" The enemy general, his blood boiling with fervor at the retreat of the Dongjin army, led his thousands of troops in a swift and decisive pursuit.
But unexpectedly,
Sudden,
A thunderous roar was heard, accompanied by the pitiful groans of the enemy soldiers.
That's right, the enemy troops were blown to pieces by the explosives they themselves had buried while in pursuit.
"What happened? Weren't the explosives destroyed?"
Only then did the enemy general realize that they had been tricked by the Dongjin army.
Seeing the mangled bodies of his soldiers, the enemy general cried out in desperation:
"Retreat! Retreat quickly!"
However, the number of explosive charges they buried was quite large.
In just a moment, their soldiers were stunned and disoriented by the explosion.
Fortunately, their own explosives were not powerful enough; otherwise, the disaster would have been even more devastating.
Those enemy soldiers who were lucky enough to avoid stepping on the explosives began to turn and retreat.
If you ask how Captain Qin and Captain Yuan broke through the encirclement...
That's because they only destroyed part of the gunpowder.
They had already located the explosives.
To avoid making any mistakes, they marked the area overnight at Gu Qian's instruction.
The enemy soldiers were still charging forward to escape.
However, they had only just begun their escape.
Ahead, the soldiers led by Colonel Yuan had been waiting for a long time.
Immediately afterwards, a vast barrage of artillery fire swept towards them...
Clearly, this time the explosives were more powerful.
At this moment, only the booming of cannons could be heard, not the clash of weapons.
Liang Jie listened with satisfaction to the distant bombings, awaiting the final victory.
The enemy was completely dumbfounded, and their hearts sank instantly.
They realized that they had already lost the battle before it even began.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh—arrows struck their chests, and they fell to the ground.
Unbeknownst to them, they had long been attacked from both inside and outside by the Dongjin Army.
Liang Jie smiled as he looked at the scene before him and said loudly:
"Fire the arrows!" That's right, they were ready to retaliate in kind.
Then, their archers drew their bows and fired continuously at the enemy forces caught in the gaps...
Such scenes were not limited to their area; the same situation was observed throughout the surrounding area.
At this very moment, the two generals, led by Colonel Yuan and Colonel Qin, are working together to encircle and annihilate the enemy's main force.
