Chapter 5446 - 5446 Retreat in defeat (1)

Chapter 5446: Retreat in defeat (1) Chapter 5446: Retreat in defeat (1) Although the battle had just started, the weakness of Tang Zhong’s defense line was already obvious.

It seemed like a good thing that the defense line was too long.

No matter where Zhao Hai attacked, the others could support him.

They could even attack Zhao Hai’s flanks and back.

However, at the same time, this weakness was too obvious.

At every point of the defense line, there had to be some defensive equipment, like a bed.

If Tang Zhong and the others were in the back, there might be no problem with his arrangement.

This was because they could rely on a large rear to defend the city.

Every point could be equipped with enough defensive equipment, so there would naturally be no problems defending the city.

But now, they were deep in the city.

Their logistics were extremely difficult, and the transport of the bed armor and other defensive equipment was not easy.

Their bed armor was not a carriage made by Zhao Hai and the others.

They were all ordinary bed armor, so it was naturally even more difficult to transport them.

Under such circumstances, they did not have enough defensive equipment at each point.

When they fought with Zhao Hai and the others, they would be easily suppressed.

At that time, Zhao Hai’s group’s attack would be extremely smooth.

When Zhao Hai and the others saw that the enemy’s bed had stopped, he immediately waved his hand and the Army slowly moved forward.

Every soldier who moved forward carried a bag on their back.

The bag was filled with soil.

Whenever they saw a pit, they would fill it up.

Behind these people was a kind of Mengchong car.

This kind of Mengchong car was not small, but the car was also very unique.

The wheels were very wide, and there were some stones and sand in the car.

On the top of the car, there was a cover that could block ordinary arrows.

When the car moved forward, the road was very solid with people stepping on it.

Behind them were all sorts of siege weapons.

These siege weapons slowly moved forward before the Army could push them forward, bringing great pressure to the enemy.

At this time, the soldiers in front found a few traps, all of which looked like trenches.

However, the soldiers were not in a hurry, and they did it in an orderly manner.

They threw their bags of soil into the trenches, and those who had no soil in their hands went to Meng Chong’s vehicles to get stones and bags of soil.

The more people there were, the more powerful they were.

Soon, a trench was filled.

Normally, this was the best time to attack Zhao Hai’s Army.

As long as they fired a wide range of arrows, Zhao Hai’s Army would suffer a lot of casualties.

Unfortunately, almost all the bed armors in the camp that Zhao Hai’s Army was attacking had been destroyed.

Other than the bed armors, the other long-range weapons had also been destroyed by Zhao Hai’s Army’s arrows.

He didn’t have anything that he could take out.

At this time, Tang Zhong also found the weakness of his defense line.

He immediately ordered the people in the other camps to attack to stop Zhao Hai’s attack.

Unfortunately, he was wrong.

Zhao Hai had mobilized 300000 soldiers to attack this time, and 100000 of them stayed in the camps.

Although 20000 soldiers in each camp was not a lot, there were still a lot of bed puppets in the camps.

Under the protection of those bed puppets, it would be difficult for the Army of the Saint Academy to break into the camps.

In addition to the bed, Zhao Hai and his team had also set up trenches outside the campsite, so Zhao Hai wasn’t worried about the campsite at all.

The 300000 soldiers of Zhao Hai’s team had 200000 soldiers as the main force, and 50000 soldiers as the two wings.

Even if the Army of the Saint Academy attacked them from the two wings, the 100000 soldiers would be able to stop them and buy time for the main force.

It was obviously not a good choice for Tang Zhong to send people from other camps to attack Zhao Hai’s Army.

Some of the camps were near and some were far away.

This would cause the reinforcement troops to fight in a certain order with Zhao Hai’s Army.

This would become a tactic of adding fuel to the fire, which was a taboo in the military.

In addition, the people in the campsite had given up their solid campsite as soon as they left the campsite.

They were going to fight Zhao Hai and his men in the open field.

They had given up their advantages.

They were in a hurry to leave the campsite to help, so they couldn’t bring any large weapons, such as bed armor.

However, Zhao Hai’s Army could provide bed armor to any of their troops.

Therefore, Tang Zhong’s Army had no advantage at all.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to do anything to Zhao Hai’s Army.

However, Zhao Hai’s Army didn’t stop.

200000 soldiers only attacked one camp.

Even if there was a ditch in front of them, it would be filled up soon.

Therefore, Zhao Hai’s Army soon advanced to a place not far from the camp of the Army of the Saint Academy.

At this time, the people in the campsite of the Saint Academy started to attack Zhao Hai’s Army with bows and arrows, but it didn’t work well.

After all, Zhao Hai’s carriage was in front of the Mengchong carriages.

Now, the Mengchong carriages were being pushed by the people who were pushing the carriages, and they were going straight to the fence of the carriages.

With a boom, the camp’s fence was knocked open.

Then, more and more Meng chonghua broke the camp’s fence.

The Army rushed in and began to attack the Saint Academy’s Army in the camp.

When they rushed into the camp, the Army of the sacred Institute was no longer resisting.

Except for a few who stayed to fight to the death, most of the people ran out of the gate at the back of the camp.

By the time Zhao Hai and his men had taken over the camp, Tang Zhong had already led the Army to launch a counterattack.

However, he was defeated by Zhao Hai and his men.

Although the process was short, almost a day had passed.

Tang Zhong and the others found that they could not take down the camp in a short time, so they could only retreat.

After dark, Tang Zhong called all the generals to the main tent of the middle Army.

They all looked upset and sat in the tent without saying a word.

Tang Zhong glanced at the crowd and said in a deep voice, ” &Quot; today, Zhao Hai’s attack was very fierce, which I didn’t expect.

Now that they have a big camp, if they use it as a base to attack us tomorrow, our days will be even more difficult.

This defense line that we built has completely disappeared, so we no longer have any advantage in terrain.

I also received news that Zhao Hai might send River-breaking level elites to attack Nanhua gate.

If that’s the case, then we’re really finished.

We’ll be trapped here by Zhao Hai’s Army, and then we’ll be dead.

So, I’ve decided to retreat overnight.

Everyone, go back and make preparations.

Other than bringing enough food, don’t bring any other supplies.

We’ll leave immediately and go prepare.”

Hearing that, everyone was stunned.

Then, their expressions changed.

They all stood up, saluted Tang Zhong, and left.

This time, Tang Zhong and the others didn’t retreat with great fanfare.

Instead, they packed their things quietly and tried not to make any noise.

In the second half of the night, they only took some food and ran away.

Of course, Tang Zhong didn’t forget to leave someone behind to cover the retreat.

This time, general Wu was the one who stayed behind.

They were at the back of the Army.

If Zhao Hai caught up with them, they would have to turn back and fight to the death with Zhao Hai.

This time, general Wu had many elite soldiers under him.

These soldiers were not only capable of fighting, but also dared to fight.

Therefore, it was the best choice to let them cover the retreat.

If someone else did it, they might be defeated before Zhao Hai’s Army arrived.

How could Zhao Hai not know that Tang Zhong and the others had run away?

he knew that, but he did not ask the Army to chase after them at night.

If that happened, it would be difficult to command the Army in the dark, and they would suffer heavy casualties.

So, Zhao Hai did not ask the Army to chase after them.

He was not afraid that Tang Zhong and the others would run away since he had an ambush in front of him.

Tang Zhong and the others had run too fast this time, so they didn’t bring much except some food.

They would be very tired when they reached the valley.

When the soldiers ambushed them, they would be finished.

Zhao Hai and the others had a good night’s sleep.

The next morning, Zhao Hai fed the Army and went to occupy the other cities left by Tang Zhong and the others.

As they were in a hurry and did not want to be discovered by Zhao Hai and the others, Tang Zhong and the others left a large number of supplies behind.

These things could be considered as the spoils of war for Zhao Hai and the others.

It was a small income for them.

The generals who followed Zhao Hai were very happy to see Tang Zhong and the others run away.

They had won a great victory this time and left so many spoils.

They could more or less get some things, which could reduce the pressure on the logistics.

That was not all.

After they took over the cities and military camps, Zhao Hai immediately formed an Army of 150000 cavalrymen with only some food.

They set off the next morning to pursue Tang Zhong and the others.

Zhao Hai had been waiting for this day for two reasons.

First, he wanted to take over the cities and military camps.

Second, he wanted the sacred Institute to bring up the rear.

This Army had to leave as well.

In this way, the defense line they had built would be useless.

They couldn’t attack with ease.

As expected, after a day, when Zhao Hai was assembling the cavalrymen to give chase, there was no one left at the defense line that general Wu and the others had set up.

General Wu and the others had left.

In fact, a general like general Wu would leave after the army was safe.

However, they didn’t want to die.

The successive defeats had lowered their morale.

It was dangerous to stay behind.

In the end, general Wu couldn’t hold the Army back anymore, so he had to retreat.

As soon as general Wu retreated, Zhao Hai and the others caught up with him.

As expected, the defense line that general Wu had set up was useless.

General Wu and the others did not expect Zhao Hai to catch up so quickly.

They thought that with Zhao Hai’s calm character, he would be delayed for a few days after taking over so many cities.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hai did not delay at all.

He directly caught up with them with his light cavalry.

It was too late when general Wu realized that Zhao Hai’s cavalrymen had caught up.
