Text Chapter 785 Take advantage of the victory and attack
Peter could see where the tip of the gun had landed, but he instinctively dodged. But the dodge was destined to be fruitless, only to dodge the third shot, the fourth to fall on him, then move upward to the neck, and then the last shot stabbed him in the throat with precision.
The sharp tip of the bright silver spear left a little red on the neck, and then the point grew bigger and bigger, and after a breath, a huge black hole was formed, and the blood also came out of it, and it couldn't be stopped.
All Peter could do was to stretch out his right hand, which was still intact, to block the blood that flowed out, and then felt the power in his body disappear little by little, and finally fell down with a thud.
The bright silver spear was released, and Peter was killed in battle. Seeing his opponent fall under his spear, Zhao Yun raised the spear in his hand into the air, which was a way to celebrate the victory.
"The Legion Commander is mighty!" As the spear was raised high, it attracted the shouts of countless soldiers, and for a while, the morale of the Dragon and Tiger Legion rose to a higher level.
Compared with the Dragon and Tiger Legion, which has a high number of soldiers, the morale of the Rus army is indeed low, especially after seeing the general die on the battlefield, many soldiers began to feel weak. Even General Peter was killed, how long will they live?
"Kill!" Zhao Yun wouldn't give the Ross soldiers too much time to think about it, all he had to do now was to take advantage of the victory in order to expand the results of the victory.
In fact, there was no need for Zhao Yun to give orders, his deputy army commander Zhou Cang, Han Juzi and others had already rushed up with a large army, and they swept in a way of sweeping leaves in a strong wind, in this process, all the Rus soldiers could do was weak resistance, and more people dropped their weapons and turned around and fled.
Defeat is like a mountain! At this moment, this scene is perfectly interpreted, and countless tall Rus soldiers are scurrying around like rabbits frightened by wolves, and at this moment the so-called defense line has long ceased to exist, and some are just fleeing and fleeing again.
If the original Rus' army of hundreds of thousands can form a unified defensive front, even if the Dragon and Tiger Army wants to win, it will pay a certain price. But now, in the face of a group of Rus' army that has no will to fight and no fighting spirit, it is much easier to pursue. Often, a few cavalrymen of the Dragon and Tiger Legion could block dozens of fleeing defeated soldiers of the Rus' Kingdom, blocking them there and not daring to move.
The Rus' army was defeated, without fighting spirit and without organization, hundreds of thousands of troops ran around the battlefield like headless flies, and all kinds of weapons were thrown everywhere, giving people the feeling that there were iron weapons everywhere.
The defeat on the frontal battlefield made the Rus' army, which confronted the Sixth Army on the castle tower, completely lose its confidence.
Before, they kept sending troops to the city to put pressure on the Sixth Legion, but now everything is reversed. After Zhao Yun suddenly came out with the cavalry of the Dragon and Tiger Legion and cut off the reinforcements that might reach the city tower, there were no Rus reinforcements to appear.
In contrast, Dian Wei appeared with the main force of the Six Legions, and the elites of the Six Legions who had been waiting for the battle for a long time had been waiting for this moment for a long time. Now that I finally have the opportunity to release my emotions, I have all taken out the greatest ability to rush out.
There are no reinforcements on their own, and the opponent's elite is exhausted, and the main force seems to be endless. In the face of such a strong contrast, in just an hour, the tens of thousands of Rus' troops on the towers were wiped out, and the result was either killed, wounded, or captured.
There are fewer and fewer Rus soldiers on the city tower, until there is none, Dian Wei led the army to end everything here, and resolutely joined the battle under the city, he saw that the Rus soldiers there had no will to fight, and it was a good time to expand the results of the battle.
When Dian Wei took Yan Liang, Ma Wan and other main generals to lead the army down the city tower and followed the footsteps of the Dragon and Tiger Legion, General Matwei was left to lead the troops to check the things on the city tower. And at this moment, his face was not at all happy because of the victory, but on the contrary, it was a contemplative expression.
He had always heard people say how brave and powerful the Celestial Empire army was, but he really didn't pay attention to it.
In his opinion, whether an army is strong or not depends on the physique of the soldiers, just like the reason why the Rus army is strong is not unrelated to their innate tall stature. Such an army composed of strong soldiers, in the era of cold weapons, one can imagine what kind of combat power it will have.
In contrast, the soldiers of the Celestial Empire do seem to be much more unwinded, whether it is body size and strength, everyone is not at the same level, so how to fight this battle, isn't it a matter of victory and defeat as soon as they meet?
It was with this kind of pride that Matvey thought that the second prince and the national teacher Feladimir were worried about what kind of trouble the entry of the Celestial Empire's army would bring to them, and he didn't care about it. But now, after the battle in front of him, his views have changed.
He knew exactly what kind of man Peter was. Also a member of the Rus' army, Peter's name has always been a presence he needs to look up to, and even he thinks that it is difficult for such a person to fail, at least in his youth.
But now, General Zhao Yun of the Celestial Empire defeated Peter as soon as he made a move, and not only that, but even more, the hundreds of thousands of Rus' troops were defeated in this way. From the top of the castle tower, he could clearly see far away, and everywhere he looked, there were scenes of soldiers of the Rus' army being captured and killed, and there were very few people who could effectively form resistance.
Such a scene he had never even dreamed of, but now it was real.
The Dragon and Tiger Legion is so brave, can such an army still be underestimated? In other words, what if you meet such an opponent? Can you fight it?
At this moment, Matvey finally understood the worries of the national teacher Feradimir. Everything is because he has this worry now, he is worried that after the Celestial Empire army enters the country, if he does not get enough benefits, he is afraid that it will be difficult to leave.
Some people can only be friends, not enemies, otherwise that is the beginning of a nightmare.
Undoubtedly, the army of the Celestial Empire has given Matvey such a feeling now.
"General, Lord Wu asked you how long it will take to clear the battlefield." A herald approached General Matvey, who was already in a trance, and asked.
"Oh, it's coming soon, so don't worry." The appearance of the herald brought Matvey's mind back to reality, he shook his head vigorously, thinking that even if there was a real day against the army of the Heavenly Dynasty, it was not now, he was in a hurry, it was useless for him to be anxious, there were so many people on it, presumably the intelligent national teacher Fera Dimir must be able to think of a solution to the matter.
With this glimmer of fantasy and expectation, Matvey began to deal with the matter of the prisoners in the city. He has incorporated these people into his own team, he is just an instinct, that is, he must strengthen his strength, only in this way, when he encounters things in the future, will he have enough ability to protect himself and have the right to speak.
Under the city, everything is as Matvey saw, the Rus' soldiers have no will to fight, they will have no fighting spirit, like water dogs, only to be beaten. After Dian Wei went down to the city with the main force of the Sixth Army Corps, this situation was even expanded, and after only a few hours of fighting in the dark sky, more than 300,000 Rus soldiers were captured.
"General Dian, I want to lead my troops to continue the pursuit of deserters, and if possible, I want to take Nexus City as well." Zhao Yun, who killed an unknown number of people, was already covered in blood, and came to the Commander of the Dian Wei Legion, who was also covered in blood, with the Yezhao Jade Lion.
"Okay, General Zhao has this intention, which is exactly what my old canon wants, I have brought all the explosives, hehe." Dian Wei smirked with a simple look.
"Great, our legion cooperation will definitely take Nexus City in one fell swoop, that's it, let's act." Zhao Yun was naturally overjoyed when he heard that Dian Wei also meant this. Now that the Rus' army has been newly defeated, it is a time when the soldiers are low and the people are panicking, if they can attack in one fell swoop at this moment, they will definitely be able to expand the results of the battle.
After a brief discussion, the two legion commanders made the decision to advance overnight and enter Nexus City. At that moment, after leaving the deputy general of the horse play and letting him take charge of the mercenaries, the 280,000 cavalry of the Dragon and Tiger Legion and the 350,000 main forces of the Sixth Army gathered together and advanced directly in the direction of Lianxcheng.
After Ma Yu got the order, he took 50,000 soldiers of the 6th Legion to escort 300,000 confiscated Rus' soldiers to the city of Hepaolan, with so many prisoners in his hands, just eating and drinking was a big problem, and he needed to return to the city to rest.
In the city of Hypaolan.
Matvey and Utkin were united, and while the two were rejoicing at the capture of 30,000 of Peter's captives, news came from outside that the deputy commander of the Horse Play Regiment had escorted back 300,000 Rus' mercenaries.
Utkin and Matvey, who were still excited about the victory in front of them, had long since disappeared from their previous joy when they heard that they had captured 300,000 people, ten times the number of themselves.
"The Celestial Empire army is too powerful, it can be seen that they didn't devote themselves to the battle with all their strength before, they just made a show for us." At this time, Utkin seemed to have figured everything out, and now he was both sighing and complaining.
If it was before, Matvey might have defended Dian Wei a few words, but now he really doesn't know what to say, after all, the facts are here, and there is no room for argument at all. "What should I do?" After thinking about it, he could only ask questions.
