949 Inevitable Trouble (1/2)
Chapter 949 – Inevitable Trouble
Yongren City city wall.
Wang Meng's movements of the Alliance Army were all seen by Baiqi.
How would such small antics stop Baiqi? He immediately ordered, ”Zhao Po Nu!”
”Present!”
”Immediately gather a group of soldiers and gather at the south city gate. Wait for my orders!”
”Yes!”
Zhao Po Nu followed the order.
After that huge battle, the Dragon Legion Corps lost six thousand men. Luckily, the enemy had stopped the siege. Apart from leaving a portion of them to defend the south city wall, the remaining was gathered by Zhao Po Nu for a total of 30 thousand men.
Baiqi followed up by ordering, ”Sound the drums!”
”Yes commander!”
'Dong! Dong Dong!'
This was the first time the war drums had sounded on the Yongren City city wall. This was not for the defending soldiers, and the rushed and powerful drum beat spread into the ears of the Guards Legion Corps soldiers fighting outside.
When they heard the drums, they were instantly energized; especially Er'Lai and the other Major Generals, who ordered their deputy general, ”Focus on the flags on the city wall.”
”Yes.”
Baiqi had told Er'Lai that when the battle reached a standstill, he would personally command the Guards Legion Corps using flags from the city wall.
The Guards Legion Corps soldiers were engaging in slaughter, so their field of vision would naturally be obstructed. Even with the discipline of the Guards Legion Corps, there might be some troops who went the wrong way or were left behind.
If one was not careful, they would be ambushed by the Alliance Army.
With Baiqi's move, there would be no problem.
Baiqi was looking down from above at the entire battlefield, and everything could be seen clearly in his eyes. Furthermore, he had extremely high commanding standards and could flexibly command the troops as to where to attack and where to avoid.
Baiqi was the eyes and brains of the Guards Legion Corps.
With Baiqi's commanding them, the City Protection Legion Corps only needed to follow instructions. They did not need to care about the rest.
With the two working together, things were done really efficiently.
As expected, under Baiqi's leadership, Wang Meng's defenses were easily avoided, and they directly attacked the backlines of the Alliance Army. Once again, they sent the enemy into chaos.
If there were troops buying them time to recover, maybe they could fight. However, just as they managed to catch their breaths, those war gods descended once more, so how could they not be terrified?
Rumors started to spread out amongst the army.
At the start, it was 'Great Xia sneak attacked us from the north with 100 thousand men', slowly it became 'Great Xia has set a trap for us with 300 thousand men.'
Who knew that the soldiers would actually believe that?
If not, how would the enemy troops be able to beat them so easily?
”There's no news as true as that.” Swore the soldiers as they retreated. Only then could they flee in peace.
As for those ten thousand enforcers, they could not do much in the huge crowd, and they could not even protect themselves. That was because the Asura Baiqi had noticed them!
The expressionless Baiqi was like an expert surgeon, and the Guards Legion Corps was like the scalpel in his hand as he dissected and cut up the Alliance Army.
Which group to attack to destroy their defense line, which castle to break to breach, and which position to attack to deal the most damage.
Baiqi was really clear about all of this, and his god eyes moved like lightning.
In comparison, Wang Meng's leadership appeared a lot weaker. Seeing that the Alliance Army was in a mess, Wang Meng was slowly losing control.
A full scale collapse was unavoidable.
The first to retreat were the players of Xiao Alliance. All of them subconsciously fled to save their lives at the start, but now they fled due to the gore of the situation.
Think about it. A person who basically only fought monsters and mountain bandits was now in such a noisy and gory environment, where it was a total mess. Moreover, everyone around them was people they did not recognize.
Thinking about how the killers behind them might catch up at any moment, how would they not feel terrified?
Now, why would they bother to care about the big picture? It was best if they escaped as soon as possible. With the experience today, these players would not dare to step on a battlefield.
It was better to fight with monsters and mountain bandits.
The collapse of the player forces became an accelerant to the full scale collapse of the Alliance Army. A collapse that no one could stop was on play outside of Yongren City.
Looking out, on the southern outskirts of Yongren City, there were soldiers stretching hundreds of miles who threw down their helmets and armor and fleeing.
Grain, resources, siege weapons, and even equipment were abandoned on the battlefield.
Smoke bellowed on the little hill that the Alliance Army command center was on. Before Wang Meng fled, he ordered all the army information and the tent to be set on fire.
Luckily, Wang Meng had some heart, and he let Xiao Nianying go before he left.
Baiqi knew that it was settled, but he still was not satisfied. He wanted to win even more, ”Order Zhao Po Nu to immediately exit the city and chase.”
”Yes commander!”
After a short while, the south city gate that the Alliance Army did not take down opened from the inside.
