Even if a single practitioner is strong, an army is often more powerful.

The Tie Ce Army was not a well-known army in the Southern Dynasties, but at this time, the name alone gave the Southern Dynasty soldiers in Zhongli City a great encouragement.

There was a huge cheer and shout, like a landslide.

When the two armies were fighting, momentum was one of the key factors.

The veteran of the Northern Wei Dynasty sniffed the increasingly strong bloody breath in the wind, and he was very uneasy, and he decided to kill one of Qi Zhuji or Xiao Suxin even if he was in danger, otherwise it would be difficult to stabilize his morale.

As he wished, his little topaz-like sword flew out of his sleeve again.

However, at this moment, his face changed drastically.

Without any hesitation, he didn't even withdraw his flying sword first, he let out a loud roar and issued a military order.

All the Northern Wei sergeants here were stunned.

The last to react were the infantry troops who rushed towards Qi Zhuji and the others, many of them turned around and looked back in astonishment while subconsciously pausing their steps, they couldn't understand why they had just let them rush out, and why they were now giving the order for the whole army to retreat.

After all, a military order is a military order.

Especially from the most trusted generals in this army.

All the Northern Wei sergeants, including those who collided with the three Southern Dynasty True Yuan Heavy Armor like mountains, all evacuated the battlefield as fast as they could, retreating to the rear of the military camp where they were originally stationed.

"Why!"

A Northern Wei general jumped to the side of the veteran Northern Wei general, who was also retreating into the darkness in the crowd, and asked angrily.

The Northern Wei general was in the prime of life, even more burly than the heavily armored sergeants, his hair coiled up with straw rope and painted with some kind of crimson stone powder like a hard helmet.

This peculiar hair ornament is rare in the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, and generally only comes from some tribes with special habits.

The special habits of the vast majority of tribes with special habits are traditions, and the traditions themselves are often meant to be feared by the enemy, and in some respects, such tribes have lived in a difficult way since ancient times, so their fighting style is often stronger than that of ordinary people.

"A cultivator with a divine mind. ”

However, just hearing the words of the Northern Wei veteran Han Sheng, the anger in the heart of the Northern Wei general also turned into fear.

"How is that possible!"

He let out a low cry of disbelief.

The Northern Wei veteran did not respond out loud.

He pursed his lips, took a deep breath, suppressed the tremor in his heart and looked behind Qi Zhuji and the others.

As far as he knew, the Tie Ce Army of the Southern Dynasty seemed to be just a miscellaneous army, and it was not at all within the establishment of the five border armies of the Southern Dynasty, how could there be cultivators of the Divine Mind Realm in such an army.

At this time, even in this Zhongli City, there is no powerhouse of the Divine Mind Realm at all.

However, with Fang Cai's breath, it was absolutely impossible for him to perceive a mistake.

That Southern Dynasty cultivator was still at least a few hundred zhang away from Qi Zhuji and the others, just from such a distance, he felt that he couldn't match the fluctuation of his vitality at all, and that could only be a powerhouse of the Divine Mind Realm.

He had the confidence to at least kill the leader of the salt sellers, and at least kill one of Qi Zhuji and Xiao Suxin, but the arrival of a cultivator from the Divine Mind Realm on the other side was not something that their army could handle.

He is not Lin Yi and Bai Yuelu, he, like almost all cultivators in the world, will not feel the possibility of crossing the border to fight at all, all reason is reminding him that the enemies of the Divine Mind Realm can only be dealt with by cultivators of the Divine Mind Realm on their side.

Soldier to soldier, general to general, in the world of cultivators, this principle should be followed.

......

Leaning on the side of Huaishui, the sound of killing still shook the sky, but this one was relatively quiet, and the loudest only was the occasional sound of arrows breaking through the air and the footsteps of heavy armor.

Qi Zhuji did not pursue.

In this kind of dark night, with the presence of many cultivators in the opposing formation, not only is there not much point in pursuing, but it is also possible to pay a terrible price.

He knew better than anyone that the reason why this Wei army retreated so resolutely was only because of the Qi family enshrined on the official road behind him.

But compared to a strong enough cultivator who can decide many things, what touched him more deeply in this short battle was the courage and skill of the Northern Wei army.

Everyone's subconscious instinct is to hope that their enemies are weaker.

However, such a short contact tonight reminded him that the enemy was not weak, and even stronger than he imagined.

In other words, if the war between the Southern Dynasty and the Northern Wei Dynasty was ultimately lost by the Southern Dynasty, it seems to be a normal thing.

......

Ding Wei laughed wildly.

Around him were the bodies of dozens of Northern Wei soldiers, many of whom were heavily armoured.

In addition to the wounds on his legs, there were several bloody wounds on his body, and his true essence was about to be exhausted, but he actually survived, which made him feel a little incredible.

Li Wenzhao looked at the three Zhenyuan heavy armors that had finally come out, and was sure that no Wei people could endanger Ding Wei's life, he continued to fly forward, and landed not far in front of Qi Zhuji and the others, and at the same time, he asked directly, "How many people are here?"

"By sunrise, there should be at least six or seven hundred people. ”

Qi Zhuji looked at this Southern Dynasty general who jumped off the city wall very resolutely, and said seriously: "In two days at most, there should be three thousand Tiece troops to arrive." ”

Li Wenzhao nodded and said, "It's just that the key is tonight... The Wei army on the north bank has reached the north wall, and I don't know if it can hold it tonight. ”

"Let's go to the North Wall. ”

Qi Zhuji looked at him and said with certainty: "You should be able to keep it tonight." ”

Li Wenzhao's eyebrows were slightly raised.

At this time, he saw that there was another ride on the official road.

There was an old man on horseback.

The old man seemed to have a great dislike for horseback riding, especially dusty things. In the darkness of the night, he frowned, whether he covered his nose with his sleeve.

......

"Tie Cejun?"

On the north wall, the arrows flew like rain, listening to the other side suddenly quieted down, Wang Chaozong and others were in doubt, and suddenly there was a herald to report quickly, and when he heard that the Tie Ce army had forced back the Northern Wei army, Wang Chaozong was stunned for a moment.

"Is it Lin Yi's iron army?"

He subconsciously asked, he wasn't well-informed before, but he had heard about the Sword Pavilion being attributed to the Tie Ce Army.

"I don't know, but the person who came called himself Qi Zhuji of the Tie Ce Army, and Xiao Suxin of the Tie Ce Army. ”

"Qi Zhuji?"

Wang Chaozong immediately reacted and was overjoyed, "That's Lin Yi's iron army!"

At this time, the fierce battle on the city wall here was in full swing, and the Northern Wei soldiers below were completely desperate to fill in, and a large number of driftwood continued to hit the city wall, and then these Northern Wei soldiers continued to use ropes to pull and stuff with a large number of grass and bamboo, which gradually formed an upward slope.

On the north wall, there are constantly arrows from the Southern Dynasty soldiers, and the number of Northern Wei archers below is several times that of the Southern Dynasty archers on the city wall.

As a result, everyone on the north wall of the Southern Dynasty felt that they were in danger, and they saw the ecstasy of the dynasty sect, and they didn't know what happened to the commander in the city at this time.
