Sima Nan's face was as gloomy as a sky covered with dark clouds, making people feel depressed and dull.
The sacrifice of the Flying General and the Iron Cavalry was like a sharp blade that deeply pierced his heart.
The super-powered weapon was the ultimate weapon that had been cultivated at great cost, but now it was destroyed in his hands, which made him feel extremely guilty.
However, the current situation did not allow him much time to be sad and angry.
The statistics of battle losses can only be carried out after the war, and the key now is to capture the target of Chixue.
If she escapes, this siege will become meaningless and all efforts and sacrifices will be in vain.
Therefore, even if he lost many capable subordinates, Sima Nan would never let Chi Xue escape.
No matter what the cost, the mission must be completed.
Moreover, the sacrifice of the Flying General and the Iron Cavalry was not in vain.
In the continuous battles, no matter how strong Chi Xue was or how powerful his weapons were, he would not be able to fight continuously.
She must be extremely weak at this moment!
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered the fleet to concentrate its firepower and launch another attack.
Dense artillery fire poured down like raindrops, carrying the power to destroy everything.
However, facing this overwhelming attack, Chi Xue appeared unusually calm.
She was like an unshakable mountain. No matter how fierce the enemy's artillery shells were, they could not shake her at all.
As the weapon core of the Flying General's Iron Cavalry was absorbed by Chi Xue, the weapon material in her body that had been almost completely consumed was instantly replenished.
However, the successive battles also made her feel tired and weak.
Despite this, when she saw Sima Nan suddenly attack her, she was able to react in time and resist his attack.
Sima Nan wanted to defeat Chi Xue while she was weak.
However, the Chixue armed forces suffered little damage and were able to resist the fleet's attack with all their might.
The death-gold sword in her hand suddenly emitted a sword light that was a thousand meters long. The sword light was as dazzling as the scorching sun, making people dare not look directly at it.
Then she swung her sword fiercely, and the thousand-meter-long sword light struck the distant void like lightning.
The power of this sword light was so terrifying that wherever it passed, the void was torn into dark cracks that seemed to be able to swallow everything.
The sword light actually turned into a stream of light and rushed straight towards Sima Nan's flagship at an incredible speed!
On Sima Nan's flagship, countless people watched this scene in horror, and they had no time to react at all.
The sword light instantly rushed to the front of the fleet
Sima Nan's pupils suddenly shrank. He seemed to have directly felt the terrifying power of this attack, and hurriedly ordered the activation of the main ship's energy shield.
The power and force of the sword light far exceeded his imagination and shocked him.
The frigate, which was originally expected to withstand this attack, was directly hit by the sword light without any ability to fight back.
The ship's shield was broken in an instant, as fragile as paper.
The sword light continued to bombard the frigate's hull mercilessly, generating enormous impact and destructive power.
Under this attack, the frigates suffered heavy damage, and several frigates were directly destroyed.
Their debris flew everywhere, causing a series of explosions and flames.
The entire battlefield was shocked by this sudden change, and everyone looked at what was happening in front of them in amazement.
But Sima Nan was not panicked, he just knew that their siege had completely failed.
He gritted his teeth and ordered "retreat".
All members of the Han Dynasty fleet were stunned.
But Sima Nan's gloomy growl, which was filled with suppressed anger, woke them up in their ears.
Sima Nan struggled to squeeze out these words from between his teeth: "All ships, retreat!"
It seemed as if every word required all my strength to be spoken.
His eyes became dull, as if he had lost all hope and vitality.
His body was trembling slightly, and it seemed that he was about to lose the strength to stand.
His eyes never left Chi Xue's direction. Even though defeat was inevitable, his gaze remained fixed there, as if he wanted to see her figure through the universe.
Sima Nan's face looked heavy. What this failure meant was not only to him personally, but also a blow to the entire Han Dynasty.
As Sima Nan's order was issued, the entire Han Dynasty fleet began to move quickly.
The warships started their engines and retreated away from the battlefield where fierce fighting had once taken place.
Their movements were in perfect unison, demonstrating their well-trained discipline.
However, everyone had a heavy expression on their face, as if they were carrying a huge pressure.
When the Grassland Wolf, Shenjing Group, and Zhu Group saw the Han Dynasty withdraw from the battle zone, their expressions instantly turned ugly. They immediately connected and shouted angrily, "Sima, old thief, are you going to sell us out?!"
Sima Nan's expression wasn't good either, but he still replied with a gloomy growl, "Sell what? Sell! I'm doing this to preserve the Han Dynasty fleet!"
He knew that if the fighting continued, the Han Dynasty might suffer even greater losses.
Although doing so would make other forces dissatisfied, he believed it was the best choice to protect his own interests.
However, Prairie Wolf and others obviously did not buy it, and they angrily criticized Sima Nan's decision.
Sima Nan remained unmoved, he firmly believed that what he did was correct.
The two sides engaged in fierce quarrels and conflicts.
"You retreated without saying hello, isn't that selling us out?!"
