Li Yi had already said goodbye to Alice and was on standby in the Second Knights for a long time. Seeing the red flag shaking above the city wall, several Knights who were on standby to attack at the same time ordered to run towards the already wide open city gate.
When the Sai enemy saw that the Chinese fortress that had been unable to be captured for a long time, the city gate suddenly opened, and the nearby enemy troops attacked the city gate in an instant. However, before they could gather many people, several cavalrymen of the Knights rushed out of the city gate on iron-clad war horses.
The Knights' charge was like a mountain torrent, not only extremely fast, but also amazing. Some Sai enemy troops who had just arrived at the city gate were instantly stepped on by war horses and turned into meat paste. When other enemy troops saw the Knights' charge of such a large scale, they did not dare to gather here anymore. They could only watch thousands of cavalry roaring by.
Li Yi was still ahead. Even if there were multiple legions fighting this time, Li Yi was not at all uncomfortable. After ordering just now, Li Yi led his cavalrymen to roar out. The first one was to rush out of the city gate. The meat mud at the city gates were also masterpieces of the Second Knights of the Central Army.
After leaving the city, Li Yi did not charge blindly. He looked back at the direction pointed out by the red flag on the top of the city, then turned his head and led the team to rush there.
The charge of multiple teams depends on cooperation. Several legion commanders dared to use 30,000 cavalry to fight against hundreds of thousands of enemy troops outside the city, not only to catch the opponent off guard, but also to the excellent equipment and precise cooperation of the Imperial Knights. The person who held the red flag on the top of the city was not someone else, but Li Yi's immediate boss, General Luo Ning.
The old general had a sharp vision and was well versed in formation. Standing at a high place, he could see the enemy and me at a glance. He analyzed calmly, and then accurately pointed out the direction of the attack to the knights who were passing through the enemy under the city.
With this, even if Li Yi and his friends were among hundreds of thousands of enemy troops, they could prepare to attack the weakest part of the enemy without being besieged by the enemy.
Li Yi's eyes were red when he killed himself again. Now even he began to feel that the battlefield is a good place. Here, he can always experience the pleasure of killing. Even when Li Yi was charging, he held the holy sword Roland in his hand. When encountering an enemy's blockade, he could easily seize the opponent's life with just one bent over.
The other two knights also charged in an orderly manner, and the Second Knights formed a perfect charge formation with them.
Although the Holy Sword Roland is a long sword, it always seems a little stretched when charging on the war horse. When charging, Li Yi always feels a little uncomfortable when making moves. Seeing that he has entered the enemy at this time, the Knights' charge speed has slowed down somewhat, Li Yi also abandoned the war horse, jumped out, and fought on the flat ground with the Holy Sword Roland. With his feet alone, he led his Knights to charge.
Li Yi's foot strength was really amazing. Even with his legs alone, it did not delay the Knights' charge speed at all. And when he was killing the enemy, Li Yi did not forget to look at the commanding flag at the citytop in the distance. He didn't want to kill himself so much, but he rushed to the wrong direction and buried tens of thousands of cavalry here.
The soldiers of the Second Knights had long been accustomed to Li Yi's bravery, so they were not worried about Li Yi's killing the enemy on foot. Instead, under the leadership of Li Yi, the people of the Second Knights were instantly motivated and they became even more vigorous in killing the enemy.
Just when Li Yi was in a good killing state, suddenly a general in the enemy camp shouted at Li Yi: "Don't leave, thief, I'll meet you when I come."
When Li Yi heard this familiar line, he just smiled contemptuously. I still remember that when he was in the capital of Wu'an, there was such a person who shouted to come to show off with him, but in the end he couldn't even bear his roar.
I looked back at the top of the city and found that the direction of the commanding flag had not changed, so I couldn't help but feel amused. I turned the direction pointed by the sword tip and looked at the soldier who had asked him to leave with a smile.
It was useless that Li Yi looked for more, and the man was already holding a giant hammer and running towards Li Yi.
After seeing clearly that the visitor was only a first-level strength, Li Yi's interest suddenly decreased. He did not want to waste time for such an opponent, Li Yi quickly used his skills, and swung his sword and a slash of air blades that contained thunder and lightning. The air blade slashed out quickly, and the man rushed towards Li Yi with a war horse. The speeds in the two directions were added together, and this poor ghost didn't even have a chance to dodge, and was cut into two pieces by the amazingly loud Qi blade.
Li Yi didn't stay much, picked up his long sword and led the team to charge again.
After more than an hour of rushing, Li Yi heard the sound of a trumpet of withdrawing troops in the Chinese fortress. At this time, Li Yi also found that, without knowing it, Li Yi followed the command flag on the city and returned to not far from the Chinese fortress. He took a quick action and killed an officer riding a horse in the enemy. Li Yi waved his hand and shouted happily to the soldiers of the Second Knights: "Brothers, go back to the city." After that, Li Yi took the lead and rushed back, just like when he rushed out.
When he was about to rush to the city gate, Li Yi suddenly shouted behind him: "The last brigade to enter the city, guard the city tonight." This shout was extremely loud, and even General Luo Ning, who was standing at the top of the city, heard it.
Looking at Li Yi who was rushing in from the city with a smile, General Luo Ning said with satisfaction: "Li Yi, this child, is so at will on the battlefield."
After several knights returned to the city, they were warmly welcomed by the people in the city. This attack was not a simple victory, but a major outbreak of the Tianlan Empire that had been enduring for a long time.
On January 16, 1998, after a cavalry attack, the Tianlan Empire finally sounded the horn of a counterattack against the Sai Empire.
After the Tianlan Empire launched a cavalry attack, the pace of Sai's enemy's attack was completely disrupted. Fearing that fierce cavalry would surge out from the Chinese fortress again, Sai's enemy actually pulled the camp backward for nearly five kilometers. With such a distance, although it was difficult to attack from the Chinese fortress, the Sai's enemy's attack on the Chinese fortress was also reduced a lot.
After continuing to siege the Chinese fortress for two days, the soldiers in the Sai Empire's army began to feel a little tempted to retreat.
"Sir, this Chinese fortress cannot be defeated at all. We should ask His Majesty to withdraw our troops."
"Yes, sir, I think the defending troops in the Chinese fortress will not decrease no matter how hard they fight. Do they have reinforcements like us? "
"Retreat, general, our army has lost its morale now, and its strength is obviously much different from that of the Tianlan Army in the Chinese fortress. What's more, we are the attacking parties. If we hold on like this, we will just let the soldiers die in vain."
At this time, various requests for withdrawal of troops were constantly mentioned in Sai's camp. Even some senior officers agreed to withdraw, and there were complaints in the camp. If there were two more heavy-headed strikes, it was estimated that the soldiers in Sai's army might even riot.
Faced with this situation, Lieutenant General Yunluo, the commander-in-chief of the Sai Army, was helpless this time. Before going to war, the general who had fought in the Sai Empire for decades also set out with confidence. Thinking of his previous magnificent military appearance, the secret chess in the heart of the Tianlan Empire, and the materials and military sources continuously transported from the rear, Lieutenant General Yunluo thought that he led his army to march straight into the imperial capital of the Tianlan Empire.
But what I didn't expect was that when their army destroyed Wu'anguo, they were blocked by the Chinese fortress in front of them.
I don’t know if the overall strength of the Tianlan soldiers is higher than that of the Sai army, or if the Sai army itself has problems. Faced with this not very dangerous fortress, the Sai Empire sent 700,000 troops, but a month was about to pass. Not only did the war make no progress, but the situation is becoming more and more defeated.
Lieutenant General Yunluo also began to consider the issue of withdrawing troops. Even if he would be strongly condemned after returning to the country, he might even be dismissed from office. However, as a person who had lived in the military camp for decades, Lieutenant General Yunluo was also a little embarrassed as he watched his soldiers launch a suicide charge at a fortress that was impossible to break through.
After the day's offensive ended, bonfires emerged in the Sai enemy camp. The soldiers of the Sai Empire could only breathe at this time. For them, the current situation seemed to be the Tianlan Empire attacking and the Sai Empire defending.
He patrolled his military camp with a calm expression. Lieutenant General Yunluo watched teams of wounded soldiers dealing with wounds in a simple environment, and kept listening to the soldiers' curses at the top of the empire. Lieutenant General Yunluo could not bear to blame these soldiers anymore, but began to think deeply about what the meaning of this invasion of the empire was.
After walking in a camp in silence, Lieutenant General Yunluo gritted his teeth, as if he had made a big decision, and said heavily: "If you fight, you can't let these children die like this." After that, Lieutenant General Yunluo sent a team of commanders to summon all the officers of the division commander or above to his tent.
After everyone was here, Lieutenant General Yunluo was in a mood for a while and spoke slowly to everyone: "Everyone, I have an important decision to announce it when I call you so late."
Upon hearing this, everyone here cheered up and wanted to see what orders their immediate boss was about to issue.
"Actually, as the head coach of the first army, I shouldn't have said this. But the situation is already very serious now. If I hesitate, the Sai army will face a catastrophe." Lieutenant General Yunluo said with a sad face, revealing anxiety and worry in his tone.
Seeing Lieutenant General Yunluo's expression, the generals here also knew that what they were going to say next must be very important.
"I have decided that we will withdraw our troops tonight and no longer make unnecessary struggles. Now we may only be able to retreat to maximize the existing troops." After a little silence, Lieutenant General Yunluo said in pain.
After hearing the news, everyone was stunned at first, and then their faces showed complicated expressions. In fact, everyone here has already had the intention to retreat. However, the empire never gave orders to retreat, and as commanders, these generals were not easy to say that they would withdraw their troops, which would greatly damage the morale of the army. However, after Lieutenant General Yunluo announced the news, several division commanders felt that their faces were dull. After all, they all held heavy troops in their hands. At the beginning, they thought it was easy to lead troops into the Tianlan Empire. But now they could not conquer the Chinese fortress, and the generals bowed their heads in shame.
"Don't worry, everyone, all the responsibility for the failure of this war is my fault. I am not in good command, so the situation is so bad now. What you have to do now is to quickly issue the order to withdraw troops, and we will try to withdraw before dawn. While it is dark, the distance between us and the Chinese fortress is not close. Under the cover of night, we should be able to evacuate safely." Seeing the generals under his commanding officers' clothes drooping, Lieutenant General Yunluo forced a smile and spoke to everyone.
"General, I don't know if the withdrawal of troops this time was due to an order from the imperial capital, or your own arrangement." A division commander asked Lieutenant General Yunluo after being silent for a long time.
"Oh, how could the imperial capital order the troops to withdraw? This opportunity was waited for more than 100 years before the Empire waited for more than 100 years. It was harder to let the royal family give up this opportunity than to climb to the sky." Lieutenant General Yunluo sighed and said when he heard his subordinates' questions.
"Then, General, you have decided to withdraw your troops privately. After returning to the country, the general will definitely be punished. Especially Prime Minister Randy, he strongly opposed you leading the army to the war. Now we not only returned without success, but even returned to the country privately. This crime is quite serious." Hearing Lieutenant General Yunluo's answer, the division commander said sincerely.
"Haha, what can I do if I punish you? I have lived enough of this old bone. It's no difference how many years I die earlier or later. But when I look at the young people under my command, I feel distressed for tens of thousands of sacrifices every day." Lieutenant General Yunluo said with pain.
"Oh, General, why are you doing this? In fact, this war itself is the wrong opportunity for the Empire to choose the wrong time to fight. The lack of combat is not effective in itself, and it is not our fault. If it were our reasons, the Empire would have issued a punishment order long ago. General, let's hold on for a few more days. Maybe in a few days the Empire will convey the order to withdraw our troops."
"Forget it, forget it. You can't make such unnecessary sacrifices anymore. Retreat. After you go back, I will bear all the blame alone." After saying that, Lieutenant General Yunluo did not give the few division commanders any more time to speak. He waved his hand and signaled everyone to go out quickly and issue an order to retreat.
And just in the Sai camp, when Lieutenant General Yunluo ordered his retreat, Lieutenant General Ronin and the other two legion commanders were discussing the opposite of it in the Chinese fortress.
"Lorry, I think the enemy's offensive in the past few days has been getting worse. Our preparations have been made long ago. Should we send troops tonight and catch them off guard, and kill them while the night is sunny. Then take advantage of the victory and we can go straight to the territory of the Sai Empire." Standing in the command center, Captain Kane said excitedly to Captain Lori.
Upon hearing this, Commander of the Lori Legion did not speak out, but looked at Lieutenant General Luo Ning who was sitting peacefully beside him. The latter understood the meaning of Lori's eyes and said with a smile: "Lorry, I think Kane's idea is good. It's time for us to counterattack. If we drag on it like this, it may miss the opportunity to fight."
Seeing that the other two legion commanders meant this, Lori no longer hesitated. He stood up with a smile and said, "Since both of you already have this plan, I will no longer discourage your interest. Let's send troops now."
