Chapter 209: Really Quit?

"What's going on?" Muller Hongzhen looked at the servant formation with a hawk-like gaze. read

"Ahem, Khan, they were frightened." Bikte said softly.

Mule Hongzhen frowned, "Supervise the battle team!"

He shouted lowly.

Mulehon's true meaning was obvious. The soldiers of the supervising team immediately stepped forward, and the shouting servant soldiers immediately fell under the scimitar.

When the servant soldiers saw that their companions were dead, they immediately became heartbroken.

At this time, the supervising team urged the servants to move forward.

The Beidi army moved forward slowly at the same time, returning to a position four hundred meters away from Yanguan again.

However, in order to prevent being targeted, both Mule Hongzhen and Bokete changed into the clothes of ordinary soldiers.

…

Yanguan.

After two days of rest, Chengtou became tense again.

Zhao Xu climbed onto the city wall with a solemn gaze.

The Beidi army had been stationed five miles away for the past two days, so he and the royal family did not dare to leave Yan Pass.

The worry is that the Beidi people will come back.

In addition, Zhongli led the light cavalry back to Yanguan.

After the Yuan family was defeated, he pursued and killed them along the way and captured a large number of Yuan family's defeated troops.

But he had to stop after chasing Fan Yang.

Yuan Li fled into Fanyang City and stayed behind closed doors.

So Zhongli immediately came to tell him the news.

"The Beidi people still refuse to give up." Mo Yu frowned.

In the past two days, he counted the casualties in Yanguan.

More than 18,000 soldiers were killed and more than 20,000 wounded at the south gate, while more than 30,000 soldiers were killed and more than 40,000 wounded at the north gate.

Of the 160,000 Yanguan Imperial Army, only 60,000 to 70,000 are left to continue fighting.

After counting, more than 30,000 Yuan family members were killed and more than 20,000 injured at the South Gate.

These wounded soldiers were detained by them.

"Then we will fight to the end!" Chang Wei slapped the city wall, "If you want to enter the pass, you must die unless I, Chang Wei, die."

While everyone was talking, Beidi's servants were getting closer and closer.

When they arrived at the city, the sound of artillery started again.

"Boom, boom, boom..." Accompanied by loud noises, most of Beidi's servants immediately fell down.

But what surprised Zhao Xu and others.

This time the servant soldiers did not continue to climb the city wall persistently, but immediately retreated in large numbers as soon as casualties appeared.

Upon seeing this, Chang Wei immediately asked for solid bullets and blasted the Beidi army formation wildly.

"Ah...ah...ah..."

In the Beidi army formation, Muller Hongzhen saw with his own eyes the black afterimage flying into the army, followed by the soldiers' miserable howls and a splash of blood.

The nearest iron ball passed five meters away from him.

He saw with his own eyes that the soldiers were beaten to pieces and their flesh and blood were torn apart.

Even though he was used to seeing cruel battlefields, he was still shocked to his core by this highly efficient murder weapon.

With this kind of city-defending firearm, he thought that even if he could capture Yan Pass, the soldiers in the four king's tents would be almost dead.

So he said to Bokete: "Order the withdrawal!"

"Yes, Khan." Bikte immediately asked the soldiers to blow the horn.

The Beidi army turned around and evacuated again.

But this time they did not retreat five miles away, but kept heading north and disappeared on the horizon.

Yanguan.

Zhao Xu and the generals were stunned for a long time. Chang Wei scratched his head and said, "Your Highness, what's going on with this Beidi man? Why did he run away even though he lost a few lives?"

Mo Yu also looked confused, "What kind of medicine is this Beidi person selling in his gourd? Is there a bigger conspiracy?"

"Hahaha, you are thinking too much. I think they are frightened." Lu Chang laughed.

All the generals, you look at me, and I see that you are all confused.

Zhao Xu said: "Immediately send out detective horses to see if they are really withdrawing or pretending to withdraw."

Mo Yu took the order and left.

Not long after, the Yanguan City Gate was opened, and a group of scouting horses walked north through the blood-stained battlefield.

Half a day later, a scout came back with news.

Beidi kept heading north and seemed to have really withdrawn.

"The rest are still following the Beidi people and monitoring their movements." Tan Ma said.

After receiving this news, the generals of Yanguan all breathed a sigh of relief, now they felt at ease.

"Mo Yu, since you are temporarily the commander-in-chief of Yanguan, you will be responsible for the placement of the casualties of Yanguan and cleaning the battlefield at the same time." Zhao Xu said.

The current battlefield is still in a mess. Beidi people's corpses are everywhere in Beicheng, and the casualties of Yanguan soldiers are simply placed in the city.

After all, the war was so tense that he couldn't care about them at all.

In addition, there are also the corpses of Yuan family soldiers in Nancheng.

These bodies also litter the wilderness.

Fortunately it was the harsh winter, otherwise these corpses would have rotted away.

"Yes, Your Highness." Mo Yu's expression darkened.

The living are immersed in the joy of victory, while the dead are dead forever.

Thinking of many of the Yanguan generals and soldiers he was familiar with who had died in battle, his eyes were red at this moment.

When the generals of Yanguan saw Mo Yu like this, they all lowered their heads.

They saved Yanguan, but at the same time they paid a huge price. Thirty percent of the Yanguan soldiers died in the battle.

They are all real people.

Thinking of this, their hearts filled with deep hatred for the Beidi people.

This enemy will never be destroyed, and there will never be peace in Dasong.

Just as they were talking about what happened after the war, there was the sound of horse hooves.

Then Tsui Hark climbed onto the city wall with a panic look on his face.

Kneeling down in front of Zhao Xu, Xu Ke said sadly: "Your Highness, Yancheng is in danger!"
