I have an eye of truth
#365 - One battle down
With such a large-scale troop movement, how could the forces outside the city not have noticed?
They had been watching the border city all along, but now the situation was reversed. Originally, they were the ones attacking, but now it had turned into the enemy attacking them.
Then, the higher-ups started arguing again. No one organized a retreat, and no one organized a resistance. Just like that, the entire force was in chaos. At this moment, there were no effective orders being given.
As a result, the people within the ranks became even more confused. Those who wanted to leave and those who wanted to maintain order started fighting each other directly in the camp, and as time passed, the fighting became increasingly brutal.
The city's army, which had been approaching, was now somewhat bewildered.
"What are they doing? Why are they fighting each other? This isn't a trap, is it?"
"Of course not. It's become like this. You don't think they'd use their entire army as bait, do you? Do you think they're stupid, or are we crazy?" Someone nearby said dismissively.
"So, they're really in chaos. Great! This is a freebie."
At this moment, the commander shouted loudly, "Everyone, be careful! Watch out for the enemy's counterattack. They have quite a few strong individuals. Now, split into three teams and push forward!"
With the commander's order, the entire force began to shift rapidly.
The three teams advanced slowly in a fan shape, while the enemy's ranks were in complete disarray.
"It's bad! They're getting close! We're about to fight!"
The high-level leaders who had been arguing fiercely looked angrily at the soldier who ran in, but upon hearing these words, they finally realized something. They had been too caught up in their argument and hadn't realized the danger was so close.
Several people quickly ran out of the tent and saw the approaching army.
At this point, long-range firearms had already begun to pick off targets, and their side was on the verge of a complete rout.
The group was very annoyed, secretly regretting why they hadn't reacted sooner. "Let's retreat quickly! If we continue like this, we'll definitely meet a bad end," a half-elf leader said.
"Why retreat? The few of us can act as the vanguard and attack directly, disrupting their formation. There's still a chance of winning. If we wipe them out now, it will be easier when we siege the city."
As a result, the opinions of these high-level leaders remained divided, and it seemed that the infighting between them was becoming even more intense.
"I'm not going to argue with you anymore. I need to ensure the safety of my tribe members."
Finally, a half-elf leader, seeing that arguing like this was pointless, simply stopped arguing with them and left, taking his troops and fleeing.
Seeing this, the others felt a burst of frustration. With someone taking the lead to flee, even more people would flee.
The already chaotic ranks were now even worse than before, because the fleeing people had gained the upper hand. Those who tried to stop them either joined the fleeing ranks or were killed on the spot by the fleeing people.
The pursuing army had already approached, and the firepower was becoming increasingly fierce. Their counterattacks were disorganized and completely ineffective.
As they continued like this, more and more people died, and the psychological pressure on these people increased.
However, what they didn't expect was that even retreating wouldn't be easy. Because the camp was already in a chaotic state, there were still some hot-blooded individuals who wanted to fight back.
There were also some people who wanted to stop others from fleeing, which slowed down the speed of the retreat.
Most of the people organized by these resisters were brainwashed guys, who at this time always thought of using their lives to complete their great mission.
As a result, the pursuing army finally caught up.
"Open fire! Don't let a single one go! You all, go up and hold back those advanced professionals."
The advanced professionals in the ranks directly took action, holding back most of the enemy's advanced professionals. However, the enemy had more of them. If they were allowed to break through at this time, then they would be in danger.
But unfortunately, they were not people who could ignore numbers; not everyone could be like Wang Yang.
Besides, even Wang Yang would often use sneak attacks when facing numbers. A head-on confrontation would definitely not end well. Then, those who were not intercepted turned around and ran, and some even abandoned their subordinates.
The commander was powerless and could only watch these people escape, but being able to intercept some of them was already not easy.
The following battle completely entered their rhythm.
A large amount of ammunition rained down, and countless people were killed on the spot. The advanced professionals, on the one hand, were under tremendous psychological pressure, and on the other hand, were being harassed by the army.
There were always some attacks that could threaten them flying towards them, making it impossible for them to concentrate on fighting.
As a result, it wasn't long before the first advanced professional was injured and then killed by his opponent.
The advanced professional who killed his opponent turned to deal with other enemies. This was the battlefield, and there was no such thing as a one-on-one fair fight. Ganging up was the norm.
In this way, the advantage continued to expand. It didn't take long for all the intercepted enemy advanced professionals to die.
Then, the army followed behind, chasing and killing, and the fleeing enemy ranks were constantly wiped out.
Anyway, according to the post-war statistics, the other side directly wiped out more than half of their personnel. As for how many people were able to escape back in the end, no one knows.
Then, there were reports of victory from other cities.
With the news from various places, they knew that this was a rare great victory. With their own losses not being great, they had severely damaged these half-elves and the Resister organization.
For a long time to come, they could develop steadily without worrying about any external problems.
After all, there were not many elves in this area, and they could not pose too much of a threat to them.
"Great! Great! I'll apply for credit for you when we get back. This battle will at least guarantee twenty years of stability for us here," the City Lord of Zhongyuan City said as he excitedly patted the table after seeing the battle report.
On the other side, Wang Yang, who had rested well, finally saw the report. After sleeping, the battle was won.
"Just as I thought, if they couldn't win this, they would be trash. It's a pity that they were still a bit too conservative."
From the report, Wang Yang could see that these people were indeed somewhat conservative. If they could have sent more troops at the time, the results would have been even more glorious. But this was normal. As city leaders, how could they gamble everything on such a thing?
