Call of the Heroes of Chaos in Another World

Chapter 2469 The Han army is defeated, and Xing Tian breaks through the encirclement.

Yelü Changwu's bravery greatly astonished Wang De and Niger.

But by then, it was too late for them to leave.
They had barely formed this idea when Yelü Changwu turned his horse around and charged straight at them. To their horror, the Moon Gazing Heavenly Halberd, shrouded in intense blood light, hurtled towards them.

"Let's fight!" The two, who didn't have time to turn around and leave, exchanged a glance and thrust out their weapons with all their might, wanting to exchange their lives for each other.

Fear is a human instinct when faced with life and death, but both of them were fierce generals who had fought on the battlefield for many years, and they were also courageous enough to risk their lives.

"act recklessly!"

Yelü Changwu, who was charging on horseback, sneered. The bloodlust on his spear surged even more fiercely, and with the force of a storm destroying a city, he slashed horizontally at the two weapons that had been thrust at him.

When the three weapons clashed together, with a "crack" sound, the weapons in Wang De's and Nigel's hands broke.

The weapons they both wielded were ordinary, and they were already nearly worn out from their previous exchanges.

Now, after enduring Yelü Changwu's full-force attack, it has finally reached its limit.

"You two ants, die!"

"Ding! Yelü Changwu's Tiger skill effect four is activated. In group battles, it reduces the attack power of all opponents by 1 to 4 points."

Nigel's combat strength -3, current combat strength has decreased to...

Wang De's combat strength has decreased by 4, and his current combat strength has dropped to...

As the horses passed each other, Yelü Changwu swung his halberd horizontally with the force of a celestial slash, carrying the three men past them completely. Yelü Changwu didn't even look back, and led his troops to continue charging forward.

He was confident that neither of them would survive this attack.

"Report! General Wanyan's reinforcements have been blocked!" Just as Wang Yanqiu was hoping that Wanyan Xie could send troops to help him stabilize the situation, a messenger rushed in to report.

"what?"

"Why can't General Wanyan's reinforcements arrive?"

This news was nothing short of devastating for Wang Yanqiu.

After all, some warhorses in the camp were still restless, and with the Iron Forest Army constantly charging into the camp, they were simply unable to effectively stabilize the situation.

At this point, small-scale mutinies had even begun to emerge.

If things continue like this, and Wanyan Xieye's reinforcements don't arrive, the entire camp will collapse sooner or later.

At this point, Wanyan Xieye was indeed too weak to come over.

After receiving Wang Yanqiu's message, he did indeed immediately organize the troops in the city, leading generals such as Dongmen Zhong and Ximen Xiao, to prepare for the rescue.

But after he left the city, something else happened in the city.

When Wang Changluo abandoned the city because he "couldn't withstand" Wanyan Xieye's fierce attack, he had already left a hidden hand in the city.

The sudden attack caused problems in many important locations within the city. In particular, it seemed that Wang Changluo had secretly left passages within the city, and a considerable number of troops suddenly appeared. Even the Han army was unsure of the exact number of Dongyi troops in the city due to the darkness.

Under these circumstances, in order to prevent the loss of Pingcheng, Wanyan Xie had no choice but to lead his troops back to Pingcheng to suppress the situation within the city.

Regardless, Wanyan Xieye's troops failed to arrive immediately, which made Wang Yanqiu give up his last bit of hope.

Wang Yanqiu was also a famous general during the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, and naturally he had his own unique way of making decisions.

Knowing that reinforcements would not arrive, he immediately abandoned any thought of turning the tide of battle. Even though he had just assembled a cavalry force of two or three thousand men, he did not send them to join the battle. Instead, he ordered his generals to lead their infantry and cavalry in a breakout.

The camp is in chaos. It would be difficult to reorganize the troops and put them back into a fighting force. But would it be just as difficult to run away with them?
Even if the enemy pursues relentlessly, it will at most be a rout. He ordered his generals to leave in different directions. Even if it's a rout, how heavy can the casualties be? The enemy's numbers are right there!
Moreover, if the enemy dares to pursue them all the way, it will actually suit Wang Yanqiu's wishes. Armored heavy cavalry may be strong, but there is no invincible type of army in the world, and their endurance is what it is.

Even heavy cavalry cannot test their ability to fight in a prolonged battle, let alone heavily armored cavalry.

On this point, whether it was the Black Spear Dragon Cavalry of the Great Yan Dynasty, the Flying Tiger Cavalry of the Great Han Dynasty, or the Iron Forest Army that has appeared now, they are all the same.

If the enemy dares to pursue them for a long time, then the two or three thousand cavalrymen he has gathered will become a sharp blade stuck in the enemy cavalry.

If they could have kept this armored cavalry, then tonight's crushing defeat would not only have been blameless for Wang Yanqiu, but would have been a great achievement.

Even if the losses are heavy tonight, the big man will still make a profit.

Trading a dozen or even twenty ordinary soldiers for a single armored cavalryman would be a loss for the enemy, not them; the costs and time involved would be completely different for both sides.

Not to mention, if they could keep this army, just like the Black Spear Dragon Cavalry of the past, and take their equipment, it would directly give the Han Dynasty an additional elite heavy cavalry force on the spot.

Sending three thousand pieces of equipment to Guo Ziyi's Flying Feather Legion would definitely be enough to absorb them.

Of course, Wang Yanqiu knew that unless the Dongyi generals were utterly incompetent, they would know when to stop and wouldn't relentlessly pursue the matter.

And since the other side was able to plan such a night raid tonight, how could they be incompetent?
The order was quickly relayed, and the instinct for survival was triggered. The remaining Han soldiers began to surge out of the camp from multiple directions, like a punctured honeycomb.

Even Xing Tian, ​​who was about to win, began to prepare for a breakout.

Originally, Gatling and the Gatlings were already struggling to hold on and were on the verge of defeat in Xing Tian's hands.

After receiving the order to retreat, Xing Tian completely abandoned his defenses and swung his great axe directly at the two of them.

Both of them knew the strength of Xing Tian's hard skills, so they dared not exchange moves with him like this. Even though they knew that Xing Tian would try to get rid of their entanglement and have a chance to break through, they could only instinctively return their sticks to defend.

In contrast, Xing Tian feinted an attack just as the three weapons were about to clash, then sheathed his axe and turned to leave.

At the same time, accompanied by Xing Tian's whistle, the warhorse, summoned by its master, galloped off towards Xing Tian.

"Xingtian, don't run!" Gatling and Gatler, realizing what was happening, hurriedly rode after him, but by then Xingtian had already mounted his warhorse.

For a fierce general like him, as long as his warhorse was still alive, the biggest problem in breaking through the encirclement had already been solved.

The reason why Xuanwu was killed in the first place was simply because he didn't have the chance to get back on his warhorse.
