Seeing that the situation was settled, Xu Haifeng gave the order to withdraw troops. A man beside him held up a black chess piece and waved it continuously on the highest wall of the inner city. Qin Yong and others saw this scene, without saying a word, immediately withdrew their troops and rushed back.

  In stark contrast to Xu Haifengs orders, the commander of the Red Ocean issued a general pursuit order. All the well-trained cavalrymen of the Red Ocean were divided into one hundred small teams, each with twenty or thirty men, who abandoned their guns and drew their sabers, chasing after the fleeing Caesarians, taking a life with every swing of their blades.

  The Caesarians spontaneously organized several small-scale counterattacks, but due to their insufficient numbers, they were unable to withstand the cavalrys fierce impact. A red wave swept over, and immediately disappeared, leaving behind only a few corpses lying desolately on the ground. From time to time, some Caesarians abandoned their weapons, knelt down, and surrendered, but the Red Sea cavalrymen ignored them, directly using their sabers to beckon them away. They had made up their minds not to leave any prisoners, determined to wipe out all in their path.

  Watching Tong Zes heroic performance, Xu Haifeng admired him with all his might. Dividing the entire team into dozens of small teams would be a joke in a large-scale melee, but using it to pursue the enemy at this moment was the right thing to do, achieving the greatest effect of killing the enemy. The great reputation of the Red Ocean was obviously not obtained by empty talk.

  The pursuit didnt last long, less than half a time, the warriors of the Red Ocean stopped chasing and gathered from all sides, cleaned up the battlefield slightly and began to enter the city.

  At this time, the sound of galloping horses came again from afar. Xu Haifeng, standing high, naturally saw far and judged that it was the cavalry unit of the Caesarian army. Apparently, they had received news and rushed to reinforce them. Unfortunately, they were still one step late. If they could have arrived half an hour earlier, or if the infantry commander of the Caesarian army had not escaped but instead organized his troops to fight back with all their might, then the outcome would have been difficult to predict.

  The troops of the Red Ocean, although they saw the enemys cavalry, still maintained their original speed and entered the city gate one after another. Once everyone had entered the city gate, the thick and heavy gate was instantly covered up. Although this city wall had suffered the greatest disaster in history for more than 20 days, most of it was broken and dilapidated, but fortunately, the mold was still there, and with it as a support, it was much more advantageous to fight on flat ground.

  The Caesar cavalry arrived quickly on the battlefield, their numbers were not many, but also more than five thousand. Xu Haifeng took a cold breath, he finally understood why the commander of the Red Ocean had only pursued for half an hour in such a good situation earlier and executed a strategy of taking no prisoners. It seemed that he had known all along that Caesars reinforcements were nearby and calculated the time it would take for them to arrive, everything was well planned, all actions were orderly.

  Xu Haifeng secretly compared himself to him in his heart, but found that he was far inferior. If theres anything that can be compared with them, perhaps the soldiers who drank blood wine had a slight advantage in personal quality.

  However, he didnt know that the other side also had a high opinion of him in their heart. In fact, based on Qin Yong and others performance just now, no one would dare to underestimate him again. Such a fearless warrior, how many can be found under the vast sky?

  Caesars cavalry did not attack the city, but instead circled around it at a distance of one arrow shot from the city wall. Then half of them dismounted to clean up the battlefield, while the other half remained vigilant and guarded against the Han army inside the city. Looking at this situation, both sides could no longer fight.

  After the initial excitement, Xu Haifeng returned to his original weak state due to excessive blood loss, with legs that were too weak to stand, and he could only avoid falling over thanks to the support of those around him. He was very puzzled as to where the strength had come from that allowed him to run from the foot of the city all the way to the top in one breath. However, upon seeing the soldiers of the Red Ocean begin to enter the city, he immediately ordered the opening of the inner city gates and went out to greet them.

  The warriors of the Red Ocean suddenly parted to both sides, and an officer wearing a large red robe walked out under the guard of several people. At the gate of the inner city, a row of fierce men stood, covered in bloodstains, with a young man sitting in a rattan chair at the front, and beside him was that devil-like man - General Qin Yong. Just by looking at this setup, even an idiot would know who the real master is.

  "This official is Hong Haijuns former military commander, General Fang Xiang Ming. May I ask which official you are?"

  Xu Haifeng fixed his eyes on him, and this was a young military officer in his thirties, with a long face, sword-like eyebrows, tigers back and wolfs waist. The bright red robe had an eagle embroidered on it, with its wings spread as if about to fly, and the belt around his waist was made of lion-tiger jade. His expression was heroic, yet somewhat fierce. The guards beside him were not simple either, each one had a strong and majestic physique, although they wore heavy armor, they moved freely, all of them were excellent men in the army.

  "I am Lieutenant Xu Haifeng, the fourth squad leader of the seventh company under the second battalion of the fifth column of the Western Front Army. I have seen you before, sir." Xu Haifeng sat in a rattan chair, weakly clasping his fist in salute, struggling to get up but clearly lacking the strength.

  Direction Ming was taken aback, clearly not expecting the other partys official position to be so low. However, seeing Xu Haifengs actions, he quickly stepped forward and gently pressed down on Xu Haifengs shoulder, saying: "Brother is injured, no need for excessive courtesy." His eyes glanced at the crowd outside the city gate and asked: "How many people are still in the city?"

  "Alas...!" Xu Haifeng smiled wryly, and couldnt help but feel a deep sorrow, bursting into loud sobs: "More than 5,000 brothers, now only these few are left, all 124 of them are here, the rest of our brothers have all sacrificed their lives for the country."

  Including Xu Haifeng, there were originally 192 people, but the battle just now was too intense. The difference between a field battle and a siege is that they lost 68 people in an instant, so now there are only this many people left.

  "Brothers, dont worry, we will definitely remember this grudge and seek justice from the Caesar dog sooner or later." Fang Xiang also shared the same feeling and comforted them.

  "Its..." Xu Haifeng choked, unable to speak for a moment. Qin Yong behind him also had red eyes, only holding back tears. Xu Haifengs Blood Wine was extraordinary, those who drank it would be stimulated with vitality, greatly improving their physical condition, and subconsciously obeying Xu Haifengs commands. However, it had an enormous impact on the consumers mind, almost losing their self-awareness from then on. But for some reason, Qin Yong was an exception, so when he thought of his deceased comrades, he also felt indescribable grief and anger.

  Fang Ming knew that it would be useless to persuade him for the time being, so he changed the subject and said: "This official has come this time with orders to support your army. Fortunately, your army is brave and we have not arrived late."

  "Thank you, General, for not sparing your efforts and rushing to our aid from afar. Thanks to Your Majestys good fortune, this city has been preserved. I hereby obey orders and hand over the task of defending the city to your noble army." Xǔ Hǎifēng hastily straightened his chest and shouted loudly.

  "Alright, from this moment on, our army will take over the defense of this city." Direction Ming paused for a moment and smiled slightly: "Before I came here, Gu Dao Yuan Marshal asked me to tell you something."

  "Is that the Commander-in-Chief Gu Dao?" Xu Haifeng was taken aback, this Commander-in-Chief Gu Dao was one of the five major legions stationed in the Western Regions, the Tianying Legions Great General. Since the outbreak of war with the Caesar people, he had been appointed by His Majesty as the commander-in-chief of the Western Front, that is, the commander-in-chief against the Caesar people. At this moment, there were more than 300,000 soldiers under his command. How could such a big shot remember this small military camp?

  He straightened his military uniform, bowed deeply to Hai Feng and said solemnly: "Yes, General Gu Dao Yuan has entrusted me to tell you that you are the pride of the Empire. Here, please allow me to represent General Yuan, representing the 3 million soldiers of the Western Front, and representing our Red Ocean Army Corps 1 million soldiers, to pay the highest respects to all surviving and martyred soldiers in your army."
