Just like when the two generals Marhua and Yiqi sent out their troops, they were also influenced by the powerful respectively, saying that when it was possible to defeat the Celestial Empire, they would get some opium and come back. This shows the importance of this thing.

And not long ago, a large amount of opium suddenly appeared among the nobles of the two countries, which had been out of stock. This thing became a sought-after commodity as soon as it appeared, but it is worth mentioning that the mysterious seller not only had to sell a huge amount of gold and silver, but also had a requirement, that is, anyone who bought the goods must stand on the side of the Celestial Empire, and not only persuaded their respective lords not to send troops to aid the Rus' country, but also to withdraw the troops sent as soon as possible.

As soon as the request came out, it was naturally difficult for these magnates, and the matter of sending troops was a decision that only kings could make, so how could they easily influence it?

It's just that the temptation of opium 0 is still too strong, and when I see that there is something to do, I can't get it, and I can't smoke it. Eventually, these people started to act. And when these people were united, it even caused a lot of noise, and for a time the kings of both countries were under strong pressure from all sides. Even as time goes on, the interior begins to become unstable, and if it continues to develop, there will be civil strife.

Seeing the instability of the country, especially the instability of the upper echelons, the lords of the two countries finally issued an order in desperation to let the sent troops return to China, which was tantamount to a move to withdraw from the bottom of the kettle, and the evacuation isolated the Rus' country.

Whether it was Marhua or Ichie, although they had seen the hope of victory, the king's command could not be violated. In desperation, they had to gather a large army and start retreating, and for a while, the defense of Rus' City became weak again.

If it weren't for the fact that another 300,000 recruits were urgently recruited in the rear, I am afraid that whether or not he could hold the city of Rus in this meeting would have become the biggest problem for the Anatoly prince.

The two countries withdrew their troops and went very quickly, which let Prince Anatoly know that the greatest test for the Rus' country was coming. Now he didn't have the energy to fight the Victor Legion on both sides, and he could only hope that the Five Tigers would win for themselves.

......

Victor, who has high hopes, is indeed in a difficult situation now.

Since the first Celestial Empire Iron Cavalry attack, more than a month has passed now.

During this time, the legion has been attacked nearly 100 times, especially in recent days, every day has to withstand several waves or even more than a dozen waves of attacks, it can be said that the army has long been tired, as the main general, he is also anxious.

Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to defend. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves, not to mention that you are still worried about so many people all at once, and you can't prevent it at all.

The defending army sent out had not been well rested for many days, and now the army had already been frightened, and it is no exaggeration to say that as soon as they heard the sound of war drums, the soldiers panicked, because they did not know where the enemy would appear from and who would be hit next.

In such a state of mind, coupled with the shortage of military rations, the situation in the army is already very worrisome.

Even though Victor is one of the five tiger generals, even if he is a veteran of the killing field, he has never encountered such a thing as today. I think that in the past, when he followed the powerful emperor of Yaxiongfu to fight in the east and west, when was the enemy not fighting, and when was he so aggrieved and besieged like today?

I was depressed, and I really had nowhere to say. Being beaten every day, it really can't be changed, this is Victor's mood now.

Even the main general thinks like this, so it can be seen that it is strange that the soldiers below will have a better life.

The messenger sent by the prince Anatoly of Great Rus' City arrived, and after reading the letter, Victor couldn't help but sigh again, he knew that there was no more waiting for foreign aid, and he was afraid that there was not much chance of a decisive battle with the army of the Celestial Empire, and the only thing he could do was to save himself.

"Someone, inform the people to come to discuss the matter." After knowing all the circumstances, Victor finally made up his mind to break through.

The generals were called, and there was only one thing that Victor said, and that was to divide his troops and break through.

For example, today's Victor is like a very fat green worm, and he is surrounded by ants that are not as large as him, but have strong combat effectiveness. If you don't think about it, even if he is huge, he will eventually be divided and eaten, and eventually become the prey of the ants.

And being watched by everyone, wanting to return to Great Russ City has also become a luxury, if you want to change, you must make sacrifices, and breaking through the siege is the best decision that can be taken at the expense of some interests.

Regardless of the division of the army, everyone is waiting for death, and if the army is divided, if some people will still die, but there are still some lucky people, they can escape.

When Victor finished his mind, the generals in the tent were silent. Although they don't think it's a good idea, they also know that the only way to do it is now.

Victor made a decision, and the generals below began to get busy. The army of less than 800,000 was divided into twenty teams by Victor, of which each team was nearly 40,000 people. The reason why it was so divided was precisely because he knew that the strength of the Celestial Empire's army was limited, and it was impossible to divide his troops to stop all those who broke through. As long as someone can return to the city of Great Rus, it will be equivalent to increasing the confidence of the prince of Anatoly, and perhaps the situation can finally be reversed and the glory of the Rus' kingdom can be repeated.

In the big tent, Victor finally said a word, that is, whoever finally escaped and returned to Prince Anatoly, he must help him to give a good to His Royal Highness, and at the same time plead for him, saying that he has failed to live up to his trust and responsibility.

Victor's legion began to break through. In order to be able to leave enough troops for the Rus' as much as possible, the choice was to operate at night.

On this night, there was a light rain in the sky, as if to tell the oppressive atmosphere of the present.

And it was on this night that the Victor Legion divided its troops into twenty routes and began to break through. After the first army received seven days of rations each, many of the teams disappeared into the night, and no one knew what fate awaited them next, but for the sake of that line of life, they had to fight with all their might.

The 20th Route Army went 19 routes, and in the end all that remained was 40,000 men and horses led by General Victor himself.

Victor didn't leave, not that he couldn't, but that he didn't want to.

As a mission, but he did live up to his high expectations, even if he returned to the city of Great Rus, he did not know how to face the Anatoly prince, even so, it is better to stay, and attracting the main force of the enemy is the only thing he can do before he dies.

Although the army was withdrawn, the camp tents were not removed, and on the surface it looked as if the main force of the army was still there. Victor also divided the 40,000-strong army into 38,000 men and divided them into four places, so that even if the Celestial Empire army came, it could not quickly see the reality.

Victor is using his life to attract the firepower of the Celestial Empire's army, and he is fighting for his life.

In the middle of the night, this time is usually when the Celestial Empire army launches a night attack, and tonight is the same, at this hour, the cavalry began to appear nearby, and the Celestial Empire Iron Cavalry arrived as promised.

"Shoot the arrows." The Rus' soldiers, who had been prepared for a long time, began to attack with bows and arrows as usual, and they forced the Celestial Empire Iron Cavalry to not get close.

There was a clanging sound, the sound of a bow and arrow striking an iron shield, and it was like a trumpet for a charge, and the melee began.

I didn't know that the Celestial Empire Iron Cavalry, which had withdrawn from the main force of Rus, was still tentative when they launched a charge, so that without a fierce attack, the defending army arranged by Victor could also deal with the problem in front of them.

This battle lasted for two hours, and when the sky was about to shine, the Iron Cavalry of the Celestial Empire had no intention of withdrawing. It turned out that the Tianyan Intelligence Network played a role, and they detected a lot of the withdrawal of the Rus army last night, but they still can't figure out the number of people.

The Rus Army even engaged in the division of troops, which made all the generals of the Route Army have a bad feeling. In this way, the commander of the Dian Wei regiment, who was in charge of the siege tonight, did not retreat at dawn, he wanted to see how many opponents he still had at dawn.

The sky was getting brighter and brighter, and it wasn't until everyone could see the opponent's lineup clearly, Dian Wei saw that the camp of the Rus' army, which had been attacked overnight, had already been empty, and roughly calculated, I was afraid that the number of opponents this time should not be more than tens of thousands.

A feeling of being teased hit his heart, Dian Wei was furious, he knew that if this was the case, he would have rushed into the camp with 80,000 iron horsemen, so how could he say about the confrontation now.

"Pass on my military order, the main force of the enemy army has withdrawn, and now it is just a group of rabble, everyone will kill with me and kill all the enemy." In a fit of rage, Dian Wei held a pair of iron halberds, shouted loudly, and commanded his iron cavalry to launch a fierce attack.

Together with the attack, the already small number of Rus' soldiers could not resist, and they kept shrinking the defensive line in the hope that they could hold out for a longer time.

The outer forces began to shrink, and in the process of retreating, many soldiers were killed by the Iron Cavalry of the Celestial Empire. When the news reached Victor of the Chinese army's big tent, he had already put on heavy armor and had a resolute face.

Although the arm that was injured by Guan Yu before had not fully grown, this did not prevent him from going to the battlefield to kill the enemy, because he knew that he was afraid that this would be the last time he would go to the battlefield to kill the enemy.

Dian Wei came with anger, coupled with a large number of people, morale was like a macro, and he came all the way with iron horses to kill, and no one could stop him. It was only in the afternoon, and they came to the vicinity of the Chinese army's tent, and here, Victor had already taken out his spear and was waiting.
