I hate Douluo

Chapter 288 Greedy for merit and rash advancement

During the retreat, some soldiers still fell. Since the number of corpses was greater than the number of soldiers, these soldiers were carrying more than one corpse, and some were carrying two or even three corpses.

Even when the general was injured by an arrow, he still carried two corpses on his back.

Xing Luo's tragic scene not only surprised Xue Qinghe, but also Olson, who was directing the battle, was also shocked.

"Stop attacking!"

At this moment, it was the perfect opportunity to annihilate Xingluo soldiers, but Olson suddenly ordered to stop the attack.

Looking at the heavy casualties suffered by Xingluo soldiers, it was impossible for them to just carry the corpses once or twice, and the survivors were all disabled.

The sudden calm on the battlefield surprised Xingluo's soldiers. They looked at the soldiers besieged by Tiandou on both sides, but there was no expression on their faces, and they began to silently carry the bodies of these dead brothers again.

Outside the fortress, Xingluo's army also advanced, but they never stormed the fortress. Instead, they silently received the casualties from the fortress under the city wall.

"Olson also has a bit of a military mind. It's rare to be able to do this. It's a pity that his military talent is not at the same level as his mind."

"Young master, do we want to..."

"Elder Yanying, there is no need to say anything. I will not interfere in the battle between Tiandou and Xingluo for the time being. I am just talking. Their current victory, defeat and casualties are meaningless to me."

Before Flame Eagle Douluo could say anything, Xue Qinghe raised her hand to interrupt. Now she was just a bystander, observing the two empires.

"Open the city gate!"

In this silent environment, Orse suddenly gave an order to open the gate of the fortress. Moreover, there was Xingluo's army outside the fortress, which puzzled some soldiers.

Vice Admiral Odas, looking at the melancholy Olson, couldn't help but persuade him.

"General, is it too dangerous for us to open the city gate like this? There is Xingluo's army outside the fortress..."

"There is no need to say anything more, Vice Admiral Odas. Now that our army is at its peak, we have given tolerance to the Star Luo army and completely overwhelmed the Star Luo army in terms of momentum. So it is time to take the initiative. Otherwise, there is no need to talk about Saliker." Recover!"

Olson had made up his mind at this moment. No matter how much he tried to persuade, it would be of no avail. In his eyes, he could only see the victorious momentum of the Tiandou soldiers, but he did not know the reason why the Bei soldiers must win.

The gate of the Tajik Fortress was opened, and Tiandou's soldiers launched a full-scale attack under Olson's order.

General Xing Luo stared at the Tiandou army for a long time when he saw the Tiandou army launching a full-scale attack.

"Send the order! Back thirty miles!"

No emotion could be heard in General Xingluo's hoarse voice, and all the soldiers were in sad silence without any rebuttal.

"Dangdangdang!"

The golden gong sounded, and Xing Luo's army began to retreat across the board.

When Tiandou's soldiers saw the Xingluo army retreating without a fight, their momentum became even higher and they cheered in victory.

Olson was also overjoyed. He felt that Xingluo's army was frightened by the battle just now. However, there was only one deputy general, Odas, with a look of sadness on his face.

"Give me the order to pursue across the board and recapture Saliker in one go!"

Once again, inspired by Olson, Xingluo's soldiers began to gallop forward.

far away,

Xue Qinghe on the top of the mountain couldn't help but shook his head when he saw the Tiandou soldiers launching an all-out attack, and turned around to leave.

This made Flame Eagle Douluo a little confused. Seeing that the war was about to have its final result, he didn't see the outcome with his own eyes.

"Why do you want to leave now, young master? Don't you want to see their final result?"

"Don't look any further. If Olson attacks blindly like this, Tiandou will be defeated! Couldn't Elder Yanying see that Xingluo retreated on his own initiative?

But this was not to carry out the order to give up Saliker, but because Tian Dou stopped attacking on the fortress wall. "

Xue Qinghe said as he jumped down from the top of the mountain and headed towards the camp.

"Heavy armored soldiers defend in front, crossbowmen prepare to attack behind, and cavalry remove their heavy armor and attack lightly from both sides. They can only attack from the outside but not rush into the formation to fight."

General Xingluo, after retreating thirty miles, was also ready for battle. All the soldiers had almost the same hatred of the enemy, but the Tiandou soldiers who were pursuing him all the way were completely unaware of this.

"kill!……"

"Annihilate Xingluo's army in one fell swoop, drive out Saliker and regain the lost territory..."

Tiandou's soldiers marched forward in high spirits, charging at Xingluo's army regardless of the cost. They seemed to be invincible and unstoppable.

"attack!"

Facing the charge of Tiandou's army, General Xingluo gave an order, and the crossbowmen in the back row fired thousands of arrows. Arrows rained down from the sky instantly, and Tiandou's army immediately became a moving target.

The army's charge was different from the light troops on the city wall, the heavy defensive shields, and the catapults that broke the formation, all accompanying the army.

In the face of such an attack, not only can we carry out effective defense, but we can also use trebuchets to break the formation.

After a wave of arrows, Tiandou's trebuchet also began to reload, but Xingluo Qingqi, who had been waiting on both sides, how could he let such a thing happen.

The light cavalry from both sides rushed towards them. Even though they had spears to resist the horses, the light cavalry came and went like lightning. They changed the direction of attack at random points, making it difficult for Tiandou's army to defend, and they suffered heavy losses in a short time.

"General! This is not the way to go. We cannot pose a threat to Xingluo's light cavalry at all. It is better to retreat first and readjust the battle plan."

Aodas once again suggested to Olson, but how could Audas give up the attack when he was already in front of him.

"The entire army will shift into a defensive formation and move forward steadily!"

Olson gave an order, and the entire army, including soldiers of different stages and types, began large-scale adjustments.

No matter how orderly it is, such a temporary and large-scale change of formation on the battlefield will cause a certain amount of panic.

What's more, Xing Luo's Qingqi continued to harass, making the scene even more chaotic. Olson had no choice but to let the soul master team fight against the Qingqi on the outside to buy time for the army's formation change.

At the same time, the Xingluo army's tactical formations also completed corresponding adjustments, and all heavy weapons were in place.

Especially the trebuchets have all been loaded and are aimed at Tiandou's army.

"Dang Dang Dang!..."

There was another sound of gongs and drums, and Xingluo's light cavalry troops quickly evacuated around the Tiandou army.

"Dong dong dong!..."

Immediately after Xingluo's war drums sounded, the trebuchets began to fire in full force. Although Tiandou's army barely completed the defensive formation, it was unable to defend itself against the attack of Xingluo's heavy weapons.

Now, if we use multiple scattered formations to attack Xingluo from all directions, it is still possible to escape from such a passive situation, but now the tactical mistakes can only make the Tiandou army bear the attack head-on.

In an instant, there was a huge disparity in strength between the two sides. Under heavy casualties, Olson had to order a retreat.
