Boom!
As the “missile” landed, the gang could see from afar that the men in black were like countless matchsticks that had been flung away, exploding on the spot.
Then, without even waiting for those things to hit the ground, the Evil Taotie had already rushed straight into the more crowded areas and swept through the wilderness.
For a while, there was already not much fire, but because of the sudden entry of the Evil Taotie, the sky was ablaze.
Screams of misery were heard, one after another.
But the scene was far from over, after that, it was where Pei Yuan was, and after that, it was where Hai Jin was.
On all three sides of the field, there was a series of explosions, so that everyone was equal and everyone was “loved”.
The battle finally drew to a close nearly half an hour later.
The three forces, with the help of the Evil Taotie, finally managed to repel the enemy, leaving the fires still alive.
However, the losses were also quite heavy.
The Haijin section, which was down to a thousand men.
Pei Yuan and Pei Mu Gang were miserable and were almost on the verge of being wiped out under the risky attack, even though the Evil Taotie was the first to support them, but only to pull them up from the death line.
There were only a few hundred people left on each side, and, all of them were wounded.
And by now, the night was already a little late.
Inside the enemy’s main tent.
The envoy and several other subordinates all had their heads down, and although they all had wine at their tables, none of them had the heart to take even a sip at this time.
“Elder, my subordinates are incompetent and have failed to spy out the hiding place of Han Qianji’s Evil Taotie, so much so that they have actually been helping them feed the beast by consuming it for several consecutive days. This is a dereliction of duty on the part of my subordinate, and I deserve to die for this.”
After holding his tongue for half a day, the envoy could not hold it in any longer and could only meekly kneel down.
“Elder, this, it can’t all be blamed on him, the front line, including us, that is all closely watched, but the problem is that none of us have discovered that Han Qianqian has actually arranged such a thing at the central entrance of the trenches.”
“Yes, at the time it looked so plain that we didn’t think much of it and its existence made perfect sense, thinking that it was to block our charge and also to facilitate his cavalry to launch a reverse charge in response to our attack and to block us from entering the position. Who would have thought that there was a trick in his trick?”
“If there is a crime to be committed, I believe that everyone present is responsible.”
“Good.”
Instead of the imagined infighting, the crowd pleaded for mercy after the envoy had thanked him.
The elder’s face was cold and looked somewhat intimidating, but suddenly he smiled, “Alright, all of you, get up.”
“Get up?” The crowd froze.
Although a group of people pleaded for mercy, it was indeed a fact that they had lost the first game of the battle, so they just felt that they could be excused for the big sins, but they would never be spared for the small ones.
After all, when marching into battle, sometimes one needed a scapegoat to steady the army’s heart.
For those below to know that it wasn’t that they couldn’t beat the others, but that their leader was not in command!
Otherwise, the soldiers would think it was they who could not beat them, so that’s where the role of the scapegoat comes to the fore.
“I have long said that fighting someone like Han Qianchang, we cannot have smooth sailing, not to mention that Han Qianchang has such a fierce cavalry team, even if he is alone, do you think we will just win and not lose?”
With these words, he smiled gently, “Victory and defeat are commonplace in the military, especially against an opponent like Han Qianqian, so there is no need to blame yourselves.
Hearing these words, several people got up.
The envoy gritted his teeth and said, “Don’t worry, Elder, I have reorganised my men and horses and will resume the attack in half an hour. This time, I have specially sent a ma*sive reserve force to deal with this Evil Taotie, in order to prevent him from disrupting our army’s progress again.”
“I am willing to collaborate in the battle and help the front line.”
“We are also willing.”
“Envoy, we promise to take the opposite side in a second attack tonight and clear the shame of today’s initial battle.”
The group of men collectively took a stand, full of determination.
It was also true that such a ma*sive attack had been scattered by the enemy’s small number of men, and no one could swallow this anger.
The cavalry had not only hit them in the face, they had even hit them with their feet.
The elder glanced at everyone and did not make a direct statement, after a moment he suddenly smiled mysteriously.
The crowd was puzzled, not knowing what this meant ……
