CHAPTER 11 A Great Army Siege
Seeing the ferocity of the arrow, Gernas blocked it with his sword. With a choking sound, although the arrow was bounced away, Gernas's wrist was shocked and numb! That's out of the range of a normal bow and arrow! Gurnas was once again afraid of Li Tianhao, an enemy who was so terrifying in terms of command ability, combat ability, and even riding and archery skills, that he was really a formidable opponent.
Although Li Tianhao's arrow missed, it caused Gernas's personal soldiers to block their shields in front of the main general and begged the main general to retreat a little.
"Shut up! Now that we retreat, the morale of the whole army will collapse. Gurnas said angrily. However, in order to prevent Li Tianhao from killing again, Gurnas had to mobilize troops to thicken and defend his own lineup.
At this moment, a sub-unit army attacked Li Tianhao's troops from the diagonal rear, which was the forward force of the sub-unit that had been almost defeated before. The anxiety in Leo and Emmanuel when they saw the enemy launch a surprise attack on their own camp was self-evident. But just controlling the chaotic soldiers wasted an unknown amount of precious time for both of them. Finally regaining control of the soldiers, the two of them didn't care about the fatigue after the battle with Xenas, and launched an assault towards the flank and rear of Li Tianhao's department.
Li Tianhao was not concerned about the movement of this remnant army at this time, his attention was focused on the more than 10,000 Yaji troops who blocked his return to the city. To his delight, the Yaki army had begun to move closer to this side when they found that the main general was in crisis.
"The whole army turned! Come to the queen of the temple by Xenas! Li Tianhao saw that the time had come, and immediately ordered. So in the midst of the heavy encirclement of the Yaji army, the Dils rebels suddenly changed the direction of the assault, and this time the direction of the assault was led by Li Tianhao himself. Those Yaji troops who were originally attacking on the two flanks of Li Tianhao's department were caught off guard, and suddenly fell into chaos, Li Tianhao unceremoniously waved his slaughtering machine-like halberd, and in just a few minutes, two centurions were sacrificed by him. The Dils rebels maintained their fighting spirit, followed Li Tianhao and fought hard, and soon broke through the Yaji army formation in this direction.
The 10,000 Yaji army, which was approaching this formation, encountered Li Tianhao, who was prominently encircled, and before he could react, Li Tianhao had already jumped on his horse and killed him. At this time, this army, which lacked the leadership of a general, exposed the weakness of poor coordination, and almost every unit responded in units of 1,000 people, which undoubtedly gave Li Tianhao an excellent opportunity. The junction of the Yagi Army was violently assaulted by the Tylesian army, and the entire army scattered like an avalanche. When Gurnas learned of this situation in this formation, he knew that the situation was not good, and hurriedly led his troops to chase after him.
Leo, who rushed to the front, unfortunately met Senas again, who was in charge of the break. In the face of Xenas's fierce slash, Leo couldn't resist it, barely resisting for more than a dozen rounds before being swept in the ribs by Xenas's sword, although he was covered with a battle axe, he was still shocked and spat blood, and had to retreat temporarily. At the same time, the sophisticated Emmanuel led his troops to attack the flanks of Lee's army, which caused considerable damage, causing both Tatar and Jimda to suffer arrow wounds, slowing Lee's offensive momentum.
However, this was not the fundamental purpose of Emmanuel, his purpose was to get to the front of the line and command the 10,000 Yaqui troops who were fighting separately. Sensing this, Li Tianhao grabbed the horse's head and took out his bow again.
Emmanuel was worthy of Gernath's right-hand man, and he took the order that the commander most wanted him to carry out without receiving the general's order. Today's battle was extremely hard, Emmanuel had four colors on his body, including the knife wound on the right rib when he clashed with the enemy general Woolley, but at this moment Emmanuel couldn't care about so much, if the command system of the 10,000 Yaki Army was not restored in time, the enemy army was likely to break through, then today's Yaji Army's operation was a complete failure. Emmanuel, who was struggling to push his horse forward, saw that his troops were close in front of him, and his heart was slightly settled. At that moment, an arrow entered his right ear and exited his left ear. Emmanuel only felt the horizon suddenly begin to tilt, and then eternal darkness overshadowed his vision.
Emmanuel's death almost declared the defeat of the Yakee Army. After a fierce battle of sacrificing life and death, Li Tianhao finally broke through the blockage of the Yaji Army and returned to the gate of Essrath City. The city hurriedly opened the city gates, and Li Tianhao asked Jimda and Tatar to lead the troops into first, and he led Alam to kill back again, covering the retreat of his subordinates into the city.
After the break, Xenas was undoubtedly the hardest man in this battle, and he never rested from beginning to end. Relying on his superior martial arts and seemingly endless physical strength, even when he finally escaped the pursuit of the Yaki army, he did not show any decay at all.
The big man who carried the giant sword out of the battlefield laughed loudly: "The 40,000 Yaji army can't help the master and me alone, wait until I go back and slowly hide in the blanket and shiver to spread my legend!" Remember, the one who defeated you once and for all was Mistress Senas! ”
The indignant Yaqui army did not plan to give up the pursuit, but unfortunately the arrows shot from the city were unexpectedly powerful. Gurnas immediately reacted that this was the same weapon that had been used to wound Leo earlier, and hurriedly ordered the withdrawal of the troops. Seeing the thieves flee back to the city, Gernas angrily threw his helmet to the ground. Although the battle cost more than half of the thief army, the Yaki army suffered greater casualties, and also lost two generals, Noyuda and Emmanuel, which was irreparable.
Later that day, Gernas commanded his troops to surround the city of Essrath and ordered the construction of trenches and fortifications to prevent the thieves from breaking through. Although there is a siege of Essrath City at the moment, it is only a siege. In order to get to this point, he has lost four generals, which is really too heavy. Although the Yaji army was still in the upper hand, its morale was very low. This was especially true of the soldiers who had belonged to Emmanuel, who was so preserved in the army that his men wept bitterly when they heard the news of the death of the Lord. The cry made the other sub-armies hang their heads as well.
The battle was too hard. Gurnas shook his head and sighed in his heart, and stepped to see Leo, who had been wounded in the battle, and now this was the only military general he could use.
