After winning consecutive battles, the Jiangnan Army attacked the city and conquered the territory as if they were in an uninhabited territory. Since defeating Nohara Huo, Li Xingzai's arrogance has become unparalleled.
This inevitably led Li Xingzai to overestimate the combat effectiveness of the Jiangnan Army and underestimate the strength of the Rong people.
From the beginning, he underestimated the difficulty of this war.
It is not unreasonable to say that an arrogant soldier will be defeated.
Hongchen took the lead and shot Li Xingzai down in mid-air with a stick.
Now that the soldiers have an absolute advantage, the Jiangnan Army's formation is in pieces and they are about to be defeated by the soldiers.
Although he was at an absolute disadvantage, Li Xingzai had no fear in his heart, which actually aroused his warlike spirit.
It's nothing more than a human being, and it's not enough to cause one's own confusion.
He held the Overlord's Golden Touch Gun and shouted: "Come here, join me in battle."
Even now, Li Xingzai still wants to fight back. He really has the courage of a king to devour the world.
However, Li Xingzai, who was furious, was still stopped by his men.
Li Xingzai once also charged into the battle, but with Xu Wentian guarding the formation beside him, he thought there would be no accidents. But Xu Wentian had already led the army on the expedition, and Li Xingzai no longer had a master of this level around him.
Once caught in a chaotic battle, any hidden arrow could kill him. As soon as Li Xingzai died, the Jiangnan soldiers would not be able to escape the end of disintegration.
"Your Majesty, think twice."
"Your Majesty, the enemy's army is strong. Let's retreat for now. We will fight with him again later."
The men surrounded Li Xingzai, trying to persuade Li Xingzai to change his mind. Now one or two failures cannot reverse the trend, but Li Xingzai must not make any mistakes.
During this process, the fighting continued. The Rong cavalry continued to charge, and each charge took away countless lives, putting great pressure on the Jiangnan Army's position.
"Your Majesty, retreat."
"His Majesty……"
With the persuasion from his subordinates, Li Xingzai gradually regained his composure. He had lost the opportunity in this battle. If he continued to fight, he would be filled with lives, and he would probably be defeated by Hong Chen.
Now that I am very close to the final peak, there is really no need to gamble with the world of mortals.
"Retreat temporarily."
Li Xingzai almost squeezed out these four words through his teeth. He was really unwilling to do so, but he had no choice but to do so.
However, Li Xingzai had come out of one failure after another, and what happened now only made him familiar with the feeling of the past.
A group of troops were left behind to cover up the attack, and the main formation began to move and retreat. But Li Xingzai wanted to leave, and he might not be able to let him go easily in this world.
The whole army rushed forward and followed Jiangnan's army to kill them.
This failure came unexpectedly, and Li Xingzai had no psychological preparation.
When the defense turned into evacuation, the formation was on the verge of collapse, and naturally it was unable to compete with the cavalry who were good at running.
People kept dying, and Li Xingzai's team kept losing strength. Naturally, the two-legged soldiers could not outrun the four-legged Rong cavalry.
If I keep running, I'm afraid the whole army will be wiped out here.
Li Xingzai gritted his teeth, as if turning his horse's head to fight with the Rong cavalry led by Hong Chenliao. But at the same time, he also knew that if he turned around and fought back, he would definitely lose.
Could it be that this defeat was really irreversible and that he would die here before the victory was achieved?
Riding a horse in the world of mortals, it is difficult to suppress the excitement in his heart. He has also experienced one bloody battle after another, and he is no longer what he was back then.
Winning or losing is a common thing for military strategists. As long as he wins this game, he will be able to reverse the situation.
I lost to Li Xingzai in Jiangnan, I can take advantage of today to get everything back.
Under such a situation, Li Xingzai seemed to be doomed. He led his team to escape, but it was difficult to avoid the Rong tribe's pursuit, and deaths continued to occur.
"Li Xingzai, come with me to accept your fate."
Hongchen was getting closer and closer to Li Xingzai, holding the sword in his hand and letting out a loud shout on his horse.
Li Xingzai looked back and saw Hongchen approaching him, horse head and tail, and the contact only lasted a moment.
Holding the Overlord's Golden Gun in his hand, he could turn his head and turn around with a single move. Whether it was horsemanship or martial arts, Hong Chen was far superior to Li Xingzai. If he really made a move, Hong Chen was sure to take down Li Xingzai's head within ten rounds.
The situation became increasingly critical. At this moment, a loud shout suddenly sounded.
"You thief, be brave."
A group of men and horses rushed out of the diagonal stab and blocked the two armies. At the critical moment, Qi Jiguang led the army like a magic weapon descending from the sky, blocking the oncoming Rong tribe.
Li Xingzai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If you don't come, I will die here."
"Your Majesty, don't panic, this little thief has his own ministers to take care of him."
Qi Jiguang agreed, waved the sword in his hand, and commanded the soldiers to charge towards the Rong tribe.
Li Xingzai mobilized two teams to support Baima City, but Qi Jiguang's team was always near him. When Li Xingzai retreated, he approached Qi Jiguang.
Everything was finally in time.
With the addition of fresh troops, the Jiangnan Army immediately stabilized the situation and began to counterattack against the Rong tribe. After one vigorous effort, it weakened again and again, and finally exhausted. Now the morale of the Rong tribe is also somewhat low.
After a round of fighting, both sides suffered injuries to each other. Seeing that there was no point in continuing the fight, Hongchen ordered a retreat.
Before leaving, Hongchen looked back and thought: Today is not the time to decide the outcome, there will be a chance to meet again in the future. Li Xingzai, you will not take me away easily in this world.
When the Rong soldiers retreated, Li Xingzai did not send troops to chase them. The key was that they could not catch up. The Rong people were very good at turning around and firing arrows during the escape process, and they switched from escape to attack while running.
Li Xingzai has suffered losses in this regard, and he will naturally gain wisdom from the mistakes he made.
The remaining soldiers began to clean the battlefield and count the casualties. Neither Li Xingzai nor Qi Jiguang looked very good-looking. Our own soldiers suffered heavy casualties, and two out of three of them had been lost.
Through this battle, Li Xingzai finally understood that the Rong clan should not be underestimated and that they still had the strength to challenge him.
The Rong people are strong and powerful, not just for a day. When they were galloping across the empire's territory, no one in the world could stop them. The Rong people's reputation was built up inch by inch.
Although they are now leaderless, which prevents them from exerting their powerful strength, as long as there is a suitable person to fill Nohara Huo's position, they will still be invincible, Ma Wushuang.
Now, it's really no time to underestimate them.
However, Li Xingzai had no reason to be afraid. After all, he had seen the Rong clan in its strongest state, let alone the Rong clan whose military morale was now disorganized.
The loss tonight is really nothing. Li Xingzai can replenish the lost troops at any time.
The battle has reached this point, and the casualties are nothing more than a number.
Li Xingzai fell down and got up again. His original plan was not disrupted by this failure.
