Even if a single practitioner is strong, an army can often give people a sense of strength.

The Tie Ce Army was not a well-known army in the Southern Dynasties, but at this time, this name alone gave great encouragement to the Southern Dynasties soldiers in Zhongli City.

A huge cheer and shouting sounded like a landslide.

When the two armies fight, their momentum is originally one of the key factors.

This veteran Northern Wei general smelled the increasingly intense bloody smell in the wind. He was very uneasy. He decided to kill one of Qi Zhuji or Xiao Suxin even if he was on the risk, otherwise he would be unable to stabilize his morale.

In line with his wishes, his topaz sword flew out from his sleeve again.

However, at this moment, his face changed drastically.

Without any hesitation, he did not even take back the flying sword first, so he let out a loud roar and issued a military order.

All the Northern Wei soldiers here were stunned.

The latest ones to react were those infantry rushing towards Qi Zhuji and others. Many of them subconsciously stopped and turned back in shock. They could not understand why they had just asked them to rush out and now issued a military order to retreat.

Military orders are military orders after all.

Especially the military orders from the most trusted generals in this army.

All the Northern Wei soldiers, including those who collided like a mountain with the three true armors of the Southern Dynasties, evacuated the battlefield as quickly as possible and retreated to the rear of the military camp where they were originally stationed.

"Why!"

A Northern Wei general jumped to the side of the Northern Wei veteran who was also mingling in the crowd and retreating into the darkness, and questioned him very angrily.

This Northern Wei general was in his prime and was even more burly than the soldiers wearing heavy armor. His hair was wrapped with straw ropes and applied to a hard helmet with some kind of crimson stone powder.

This kind of strange hair accessories are rare throughout the Northern Wei Dynasty, and usually only come from some tribes with special habits.

The special habits of most tribes with special habits are traditions, and traditions themselves are often to make the enemy afraid. In some ways, this tribe has lived a difficult life from ancient times to the present, so their fighting style is often stronger than that of ordinary people.

"A practitioner with the realm of divine thoughts."

However, just hearing the words from the old general of the Northern Wei Dynasty, the anger in the heart of the Northern Wei Dynasty turned into fear.

"How is that possible!"

He screamed in disbelief.

The veteran Northern Wei general did not respond.

He pursed his lips tightly, took a deep breath, suppressing the tremor in his heart, looking behind Qi Zhuji and others.

As he knew, the Tie Ce Army of the Southern Dynasties seemed to be just a miscellaneous army, and it was not included in the organization of the five border troops of the Southern Dynasties. How could there be a practitioner in the realm of divine thoughts in such an army?

At this time, even in Zhongli City, there were no strong people in the realm of divine thoughts.

However, he would never be able to perceive the error that just now.

The Southern Dynasty practitioner was at least hundreds of feet away from Qi Zhuji and others. However, the distance between him made him feel that the fluctuations of vitality were incomparable. Then he could only be a powerful man in the realm of divine thoughts.

He had the confidence to at least deal with the salt vendor leader and at least kill one of Qi Zhuji and Xiao Suxin, but the arrival of the other party's cultivator with the divine mind realm was not something their army could do.

He is not Lin Yi and Bai Yuelu. He is like almost all practitioners in the world. He does not feel that there is a possibility of crossing the border and fighting. All reason is reminding him that only practitioners in the Divine Thought Realm can deal with the enemy of the Divine Thought Realm.

Soldiers are against soldiers, generals are against generals. In the world of practitioners, this principle should be followed.

...

The sound of killing on the other side of the Huai River was still shook the sky, but this area was relatively quiet. The loudest part was the occasional shrill sound of arrows breaking through the air and the footsteps of heavy armor.

Qi Zhuji did not pursue him.

In such a dark night, when there are still many practitioners in the other formation, the pursuit is not only meaningless, but also may also pay a heavy price.

He knew better than anyone that the reason why this Wei army retreated so resolutely was because the Qi family worshipped him on the official road behind him.

But compared to a strong enough practitioner who can decide many things, what touched him more deeply in this short battle was the bravery and good fighting of the Northern Wei army.

In everyone's subconscious mind, they naturally hope that their enemies will be weaker.

However, such a short contact tonight reminded him that the enemy is not weak, and it is even stronger than he imagined.

In other words, if the war between the Southern Dynasties and the Northern Wei Dynasty ultimately ended up losing, it seemed normal.

...

Ding Chang laughed wildly.

There were dozens of Northern Wei soldiers corpses upside down around him, including many heavily armored soldiers.

In addition to the wounds on his legs, he had several bloody mouths on his body. His true energy was about to end, but he actually survived, which made him feel a little incredible.

Li Wenzhao looked at the three True Yuan Heavy Armors that finally escaped, and was sure that no Wei people could endanger Ding Seng's life. He continued to fly forward and landed not far in front of Qi Zhuji and others. He asked directly: "How many people have come?"

"By sunrise, there should be at least six or seven hundred people."

Qi Zhuji looked at the Southern Dynasty general who jumped down from the city wall very resolutely and said seriously: "In two days at most, there should be three thousand iron troops to arrive."

Li Wenzhao nodded and said, "It's just that the key is tonight... the Wei army on the north bank has reached the north wall, and I don't know if it can hold on tonight."

"Let's go to the North Wall."

Qi Zhuji looked at him and said with certainty: "We should be able to guard it tonight."

Li Wenzhao raised his eyebrows slightly.

At this time, he saw another horse coming from the official road.

There is an old man on the horse's back.

The old man seemed to dislike riding horses, especially the dust. In the darkness, he frowned, did he cover his nose with his sleeves?

...

"Iron Army?"

The waves flying above the north wall were like rain. As the other side suddenly became quiet, Wang Chaozong and others were shocked and suspicious. Suddenly, a messenger was ordered to give back quickly. When Wang Chaozong heard that the Tie Ce army came to force the Northern Wei army to retreat, Wang Chaozong was stunned.

"Is it Lin Yi's iron army?"

He asked subconsciously that he was not well-informed before, but had heard of Jiange's return to the Tie Ce Army.

"I don't know very well, but the person who came claimed to be Tie Ce Army Qi Zhuji and Tie Ce Army Xiao Suxin."

"Qi Zhuji?"

Wang Chaozong immediately reacted and was overjoyed, "That is Lin Yi's iron army!"

At this time, fierce battles were in full swing on the city wall. The Northern Wei soldiers below filled in with all their lives. A large number of driftwood kept hitting the city wall. Then these Northern Wei soldiers kept pulling them with ropes and filling them with a large amount of grass and bamboo, which gradually formed an upward slope.

The Southern Dynasties soldiers were constantly being shot by arrows above the northern wall. The number of Northern Wei arrow troops below was several times that of the Southern Dynasties archers on the city wall. Even though they occupied a condescending territorial advantage, in addition to arrows, some weapons and rockfalls could also cause damage, but the casualties between the two sides were almost the same.
