The enemy's forces could not disappear into thin air, the two hundred thousand Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country s that were not on the battlefield would definitely stay in the main camp, but if they kept charging down, they would only encounter scattered troops. How could the smart Xiao Muqing not be alerted about this?

He hastily ordered the entire army to halt their charge. The Pingyuan Army of over fifty thousand people stopped at the same time. The soldiers did not understand, why did they stop chasing after the enemy when they had the advantage?

Xiao Muqing did not care about the doubtful expression of the people around him, he walked to the high ground and looked around him, what a good point of view, this wide and open camp, he could not see the end of it, in the camp, everything he looked at were Army Tent, the tents were right beside the tents, the arrangement was unorganized and messy, but there were very few soldiers, all the enemy soldiers were fleeing towards the center of the camp.

Something was not right! This battle had gone too smoothly, from breaking through camp defense to entering camp. Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country had displayed too little combat strength, and the amount of soldiers participating in the battle was too little. It had to be known that the camp was related to the fate of the entire army. Once it was destroyed, the supplies and food would be damaged, and the Allied Army of Chuan Country And Zhen Country would have to be forced to withdraw.

Xiao Muqing had already decided in his heart that this seemingly spacious and empty camp would definitely have an ambush, and they definitely would not continue to advance inwards.

He took a deep breath and passed down the order. The entire rear team would retreat, and they would retreat along the same path. In addition, they would burn as many fires as they could while retreating.

Hearing his order, Zhan Hu did not understand, the previous army had rushed back to find Xiao Muqing, and asked: "General Xiao, the enemy resistance is weak, why must our army retreat?"

It was only because the enemy had little resistance that people were suspicious. Xiao Muqing didn't have time to explain anything to Zhan Hu now, so he said resolutely: "No need to ask, this is an order! Wait until we exit the Enemy's Camp, I will explain this to General Zhan Hu. "

Although Zhan Hu and him were of the same rank, and both were Chief General, the latter was the general of the entire army, so when he ordered them to retreat, Zhan Hu could do nothing about it.

When the Pingyuan Army went deeper into the camp, they did not encounter many obstructions from the enemy. But just when they were about to retreat, suddenly they heard sharp and long whistles coming from the surroundings, followed by countless of Chuan Army And Zhen Army soldiers rushing out from the tents surrounding the Pingyuan Army.

These soldiers, all dressed in neat sets of armor, all holding weapons in their hands, rushed out of the tents, shouting and shouting. For a moment, the Pingyuan Army s on the left and right sides shook the heavens, as countless of soldiers charged forward.

Especially on the side close to the center of the camp, the soldiers who were preparing the Chuan Army And Zhen Army were quickly setting up a battle formation. Looking at the scene, one could see heads swarming everywhere, a black mass of people with at least tens of thousands of soldiers. Moreover, more and more enemy troops were continuously merging into the formation, causing their camp to expand rapidly.

As for the group of enemies blocking Pingyuan Army's retreat path, they were relatively small in number, but there were also more than ten thousand of them. They lined up in the middle of the road, ahead of them were all Heavy Shield Soldier, and behind them were countless of archers.

It was just an instant, but enemy forces surrounded Pingyuan Army from the front and back.

At this time, if it were any other army or commander, they would probably be thrown into a panic and their morale would be greatly reduced. However, Pingyuan Army was different, as they saw themselves barging into the enemy's ambush, the soldiers below had automatically shrunk back into a ball without waiting for orders from their superiors. The shieldmen were at the outer perimeter, blocking the enemy's charge, while the soldiers inside were all armed with halberds or spears, and their weapons rested on the shoulders or shields of their comrades in front.

The Feng Army's array was completed in an instant, and the shield formed an iron defensive line. The tip of the halberd and spear appeared in unison, and from afar, countless blades formed from the shield, like a hedgehog.

The Generals And Soldiers of Pingyuan Army's training speed was fast, but Xiao Muqing was even more calm, and quickly analyzed the situation on the battlefield. There was indeed an ambush at Enemy's Camp, but fortunately, they discovered it early and did not enter the ambush. Otherwise, the ones who would have cut off their escape would not have been the ten thousand archers, but the tens of thousands of enemy soldiers.

While Xiao Muqing ordered his troops to prepare for battle, he also ordered them to retreat and charge straight into the enemy's ten thousand man arrow formation.

Pingyuan Army lined up the battle formations, and retreated step by step. At this time, the enemy troops on both sides had already arrived in front of them.

These enemy soldiers were mostly Zhen Jun soldiers, and without a care in the world, they rushed forward to attack. Even though they saw that many of the blades in Feng Army's shield had already extended out, the soldiers that were in the front still roared and ran forward.

The bodies of the people fell down while screaming miserably, but at the same time, their clothes from behind stepped on their bodies that had not fallen yet, and leaped high into the air. Shield Array who had jumped over the Feng Army, fell straight towards the top of the Feng Army.

It was true that they were brave and fierce, and had jumped high enough, but Generals And Soldiers of Pingyuan Army was no match for them. The soldiers in front ignored them and continued to use the halberds and spears to assassinate the enemy soldiers in front of them. Feng Soldier behind them raised their crossbows one by one and aimed at the Zhen Soldier in the air and released a volley of arrows.

Pu, Pu, Pu!

The sound of arrows piercing through flesh could be heard. Countless soldiers were still in the air, and before they could jump down, they were nailed by Feng Army's crossbow bolts like hedgehogs. By the time they fell into the crowd, they were already dead. However, for Zhen Jun who was charging, death would not scare them away. It would only make them even crazier and more desperate.

Many of them were shot down by crossbow arrows before they could even reach the front of the Feng Army array. Even when they had reached near, they were quickly pierced through the body by the ruthlessly thrusting halberd. From time to time, the shield wielder would be chopped down and stabbed to the ground by the Zhen Jun, and at this time, the Feng Army would immediately throw away the halberd and spear in their hands, catch hold of the shield, and continue to fight on.

As the Pingyuan Army blocked the attacks from the Zhen Jun on both sides, the entire camp continued to move forward. Not long after, the tens of thousands of Chuan Army Archers and the archers in the center of the Pingyuan Army camp all shot out their arrows at the same time. The two black curtains rose above the heads of the Second Army, crossed in the air, and fell on top of the enemy's heads.

In the blink of an eye, a large number of soldiers from both camps fell to the ground. Hundreds or even thousands of people had died with arrows stuck all over their bodies. Soon after, the second round of shooting began again. Arrows continuously flew through the air, falling into the crowd of people. The arrows were almost completely empty, and they all let out miserable shrieks.

At this time, there were more and more Chastity Army charging in from both sides. More importantly, the enemy forces at the back were already approaching the end of the Pingyuan Army, the distance between the two sides was so close that they could clearly see the hairs on each other's face, and they could clearly hear the sound of the enemy troops breathing.

Zhan Hu, who was following beside Xiao Muqing, noticed that the situation was critical, and immediately said to Xiao Muqing: "General Xiao, I will go to the rear and block the rear!"

Xiao Muqing didn't have time to think about it further. He nodded and replied, "Be extra careful."

"Understood." Zhan Hu dragged his hammer and ran to the back of his camp.2

When he arrived at the end of the Pingyuan Army formation, the two sides had already come into contact with each other. Both sides were stabbing at each other's enemies with their halberds, and muffled sounds of "puchi puchi" and "puchi" rang out one after another.

Zhan Hu roared, he rushed forward and split up the group of people on his side, and smashed the wheel hammer towards the enemy.

There were Heavy Shield Soldier defending the outer parts of the array. Zhan Hu's Spirit Hammer was smashing onto the Heavy Shield. The Heavy Shield was different from normal shields, it was rectangular shaped and stood upright on the ground. Its height could reach to the chest and was made of pure iron, it was extremely thick, it was invulnerable to weapons and arrows. However, when Zhan Hu's heavy hammer smashed down, one of the Heavy Shield s was smashed into a U shape. The shield-bearer's sternum was shattered into pieces, and he was sent flying backwards, falling into the crowd of people on his side, and crashed into a group of people.

Not waiting for the other Heavy Shield Soldier s to come over to fill his gap, Zhan Hu swept out another heavy hammer from the left and right.

Dong, dong!

Following two deafening explosions, two more Heavy Shield s were completely destroyed, and the enemy army once again fell to the ground.

Taking advantage of the enemy's rare chance of chaos, the Feng Soldier s all pulled out their waist-long arrows and aimed at the enemy's group to continuously shoot.

Dang, dang, dang!

If they were at a distance, the crossbow arrow's power would not be able to penetrate through the steel armour, but right now, the distance between the two was too close, although it was not close to the other side, but it was still less than five steps away, at such a close distance, the crossbow arrow could easily penetrate through the Steel Armor and stab into its body.

In that moment, the enemy forces on Zhan Hu's side fell into chaos. The Heavy Shield Soldier s could not go up, so the halberd in Feng Army could definitely wound anyone. The threat of the crossbow arrows became even greater, as groups of soldiers fell to the ground in pools of blood.

The chaos on the side also attracted the attention of the enemy, and very quickly, a captain of the Chuan Army rushed over. Seeing Zhan Hu who was dressed in a spirit armor with a Spirit Hammer in his hand, without saying a word, he raised his blade and slashed.

Zhan Hu was strong, so he had no qualms when facing off against enemies, and without even thinking, he struck with his hammer.

The Spiritual Knife slashed onto the Spirit Hammer, and was repelled back, bouncing up high. The captain of the regiment felt his arm go numb, and the web between his thumb and forefinger cracked. He also couldn't help but take two steps back. Because he was covered by spirit armor, his expression could not be seen, but from his shocked gaze, it could be determined that he was extremely shocked by Zhan Hu's brute force.

"You take one of my attacks too!"

Zhan Hu didn't care whether you were shocked or not, as he turned his hand and smashed the other party's waist. The regiment leader already knew that Zhan Hu was shockingly strong, how could he still resist. He quickly bent down to avoid Zhan Hu's hammer, but he did not notice Zhan Hu's kick.

When he sensed that something was wrong, it was already too late for him to dodge.

With a kacha sound in his ear, Zhan Hu's kick landed right in the middle of his face, sending the body of the Regiment Commander flying.
