Chapter 673: Parting Ways
Anxi, the traces of the raging fire in the city silently tell the blood and sorrow of the war, and the coalition troops cowered in the ruined city, and their morale was low.
The soldiers leaned against the walls of the city or the ruined walls, bowing their heads and holding their heads in silence, their morale low to the extreme.
The Don Army is invincible! This is the inner thought of all soldiers now!
You know, this time in a head-to-head battle with the Tang army, they had 150,000 soldiers, and the Tang army was only 100,000, what was the result? As a result, they were slaughtered 50,000 people! And the Tang Army has not yet used that powerful killing weapon! Just by virtue of the head-on confrontation, they are killed in all directions!
Especially Tang Jun's terrifying Mo Dao Array, it was like a meat grinder! As long as you fall into the formation, no matter how rebellious you are, you will definitely be cut into a pile of meat puree, and you can't die anymore!
They just didn't know the power of the Mo Dao formation, so they blindly rushed in and killed tens of thousands of people, what was the result? As a result, almost all of these tens of thousands of people died, and not even a single wave was stirred!
It's horrible! All the soldiers trembled at the sight of this. There are Mo knife formations in close combat, cannons, crossbow machines, and thunderbolts, which are weapons against the sky, how to fight the Tang army? Do you have a chance of winning?
The most devastating thing for the army is that when fighting with the Tang Army, the retreat was rushed, and they evacuated without having time to bring grain and grass.
Not even enough food and grass to go back!
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the coalition army, it turned out to be a soldier's mentality collapsed, his face was pale, holding his head, and he was desperately tearing his hair, "Enough!" I've had enough! This war is even more meaningless! Doomed from the start! If you continue to fight, you will only be slaughtered in vain! I want to go home! I want to go home! I don't want to die! ”
The soldiers around were silent, they also wanted to go home, but the general did not give an order, even if they had a home, they could not go back, this is the sad thing about the defeated army, always struggling in the shadow of death, but unable to break free.
"I... I want to go home too! I... I don't want to fight anymore! I don't want to die! I still have a wife, and a two-year-old son, and I... I can't die outside, no... Who will take care of my wife and children? Ahhh "Another soldier couldn't stand the torture and went crazy with his head in his hands.
Emotions can be contagious, especially when morale is so low. Suddenly, many of the coalition soldiers made a big fuss, they demanded to withdraw their troops, asked to go home, and did not want to fight any more meaningless wars.
The generals scolded, but they couldn't stop the mentality of rushing. Like a contagious disease, as some people made trouble, all the soldiers began to shout, clamoring to withdraw their troops and return to their homeland, not wanting to carry out meaningless wars and sacrifices on the way.
The Tang Army is too strong! Simply invincible! The soldiers' hearts had long been clouded, and they did not dare to face the Tang Army at all, and they did not even have the courage to take up arms.
"What to do? Morale has been lost, and the soldiers no longer have the courage to take up arms and fight! The generals gathered together and frowned deeply.
Not only did the soldiers not have the courage to fight, but even the generals were no longer hopeful, the Tang Dynasty reinforcements had arrived, and as soon as they came, they were defeated and fled, losing tens of thousands of soldiers.
That's not all, when they retreated in a hurry, everyone only cared about fleeing for their lives, and no one thought about the matter of grain and grass, and now there is not even food and grass, even if the morale is still there, they have lost the capital to fight against the Tang Army.
"It's time to withdraw! We lost this battle, and after all, it is still impossible to compare with the Tang Army. A general sighed.
"Yes, there is no need to fight anymore at this point, withdraw the army, and then let the king send a messenger to apologize to the king of Tang, otherwise, there may be a disaster of extermination!" Some generals were worried, and at the same time bowed their heads and thought about how to persuade the envoys sent in the past to apologize to the Tang King after returning to China.
"We can't withdraw our troops!" Ying Hao's eyes were red and interrupted the conversation of the generals. "You can't withdraw your troops! The Xue Yantuo tribe has gone south, as long as we can hold on to Anxi, and when the Xue Yantuo tribe attacks Chang'an and the news reaches the Western Regions, the Tang Dynasty's reinforcements will inevitably be in chaos, and we can take advantage of their unstable military spirit to counterattack! Maybe you can hit the audience all the way! The main force of our army still exists, and we can't say defeat so easily! ”
"The main force is still there?" The general of a small country had red eyes on the spot, grabbed Ying Hao's collar and said angrily: "The warriors of our country are almost dead, where do you see that the main force is still alive?" ”
Ying Hao's face did not change, his hand flicked slightly, removed the big hand that grabbed his collar, and said coldly: "What do you mean by this?" Are you determined to retire? Don't forget the consequences of breaking your original vows! ”
One of the generals scoffed, "What kind of consequences can it be?" Seeing that the situation was not right, didn't Tubo withdraw from the army a long time ago? I don't know how they are! ”
The general's words were agreed by many others, the Church of Our Lady has always been mysterious, and the original contract only wrote that breaking the contract would be attacked by the Church of the Notre Dame, and there was no specific writing at all.
And as the monarch and minister of a country, how could they be afraid of the retaliation of a small sect, it is simply ridiculous, therefore, everyone is not worth caring about Ying Hao's words, and even now no one admits that Ying Hao is the main general, in their eyes, the Holy Mother Sect planned this war, but it made them end up like this, it is already merciful not to trouble their Holy Mother Sect, and they want him to command the whole army? What about dreaming?
As soon as the war with the Tang army is over, after the pilgrimage to the Tang Dynasty, we must shake out the Holy Mother Religion, throw all the black cauldrons to the Holy Mother Religion, and let the Holy Mother Religion and the Tang Dynasty pinch each other!
None of the people present were good, all of them were old foxes, and the darkness in their hearts naturally went without saying.
"Ying Hao!" Ju Li'an shouted, at this moment he didn't even bother to call "Sect Master", and directly called his name, which was enough to see the contempt in his heart.
"What about your master? Doesn't seem like it's been a long time since you've seen her? How? Did you anticipate the failure for a long time, so you left first? I advise you, before we still want to cut you down, and you should also take the people of the Holy Mother Sect with you as soon as possible! Otherwise... Hehe, when Tang Jun comes, we may kidnap you and send you to Tang Jun to clear our name! ”
"Hehehe!" Several other generals walked forward with knives, stared at Ying Hao and smiled: "It's a good idea, you can give it a try!" Tie up Ying Hao and send him to Tang Jun as a letter of surrender, maybe he will bypass us and avoid a disaster for the country! ”
"It makes sense, the old man also thinks so, this disaster originated from the Church of Our Lady, and they should be responsible!" Another general stepped forward.
Ying Hao's face changed, and he pointed at these generals and said angrily: "You... What a guts! It was you who took the initiative to send troops after hearing the conditions, but now it is our Holy Mother Sect to blame, which is really unreasonable! ”
"Humph!" Ju Lian said indifferently: "It wasn't your Holy Mother Sect who bewitched my king at the beginning, otherwise my king would be wise and martial, how could he make such an irrational decision!" ”
"That's right! It's all because of Our Lady! Get him! "A general pounced on him with a sword.
How could Ying Hao sit still and wait to die, dodged, jumped to the high wall with light skills, and looked at the generals indifferently: "In this case, see you in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless!" Brethren of the Church of Our Lady, let's go! ”
