Chapter 1197 Surrounded
After Hai Lie ordered to stop the siege, he assembled the army. When he was leading the troops to transfer, suddenly a soldier reported to him that three thousand soldiers from Nirvana City came out of the city and chased them.
"Don't worry about it, they don't dare to attack at all."
Hai Lie felt that those 3,000 people would go out of the city to challenge an army whose number was several times larger than theirs, but they just wanted to know where they were going, and didn't care about it.
But what Hai Lie didn't expect was that the 3,000-man army actually dared to fight, and went around to fight in front of his army.
"How dare you despise our army like this, let me catch up and kill them."
The front said they didn't dare to fight, but they were immediately slapped in the face. Hai Lie was very angry and immediately ordered to annihilate that army.
However, the 3,000-man troops photographed by Dusi were all equipped with core rifles and adopted kite tactics, fighting while running, which made the soldiers of Hucheng very distressed.
The soldier came to report: "My lord, they are too good at running, and they are still using core rifles. Our people can't catch up or hit them."
Hai Lie said angrily, "Order the cavalry to chase after him."
The soldier left the order and came back after a while.
"My lord, I still haven't caught up."
Hai Lie shouted: "Didn't catch up, what happened?"
The soldier smiled wryly and said, "They were able to fight while running, but our cavalry couldn't hit them. After some people died without being able to fight back, we didn't dare to chase them anymore."
As for the core rifles, the Lake City army does not have them, but there are not many of them, and they are all used by the infantry, while the cavalry use long spears. Naturally, they can only passively take the guns but cannot backhand them during the pursuit.
"Damn it, where do they get so many core rifles, and where do they get so many mutant beast cores."
Hai Lie didn't know that with the Dawes family and enough resources, Nirvana City could have as many core rifles as it wanted.
Mutant beast cores were acquired a lot in the previous beast tide.
Faced with this army using core rifles, Hai Lie didn't think of a way to deal with it for a while. He could only let the soldiers in the front line use shields, and let the awakened ones buff their shields to resist. For a while, the march of the army slowed down.
After a while, Hai Lie reacted.
"Damn it, they sent this army out to delay the time."
Hai Lie felt that the commander must have received the news of the fall of the eastern city, so he sent this army out to prevent him from taking it there, and the commander must have wanted to use this time to mobilize troops to recover the city.
But now he has two choices, one is to take advantage of Suzaku City to send troops, and kill the carbine; the other is to find a way to speed up and rush to Jiaoli's side for reinforcements.
Hai Lie weighed it up and decided to continue rushing to reinforce Joli.
Because he felt that no matter how bad Joli was, he should be able to defend until he led his troops there.
But if you look back, you must attack the city, which is relatively troublesome.
"It seems that we have to find a way to get rid of the trouble blocking the way and speed up."
Hai Lie pondered for a while, and then ordered: "Go and order Novi and Kouros to lead the cavalry to outflank them from both sides. I don't believe that the army can take care of one side and take care of the other side."
Under Hai Lie's order, the Hucheng army divided into two cavalry units to surround them, and the 3,000 cavalry and archery troops in Nirvana City had to give up blocking and retreat.
But without any obstruction, Hai Lie's army naturally increased its speed, and after a while they arrived at Qinglong City.
But when he came here, what Hailie saw was indeed a closed city gate.
"What's going on, why did Joli close the city gate?"
Hai Lie rushed to be puzzled.
It is reasonable to say that there are no enemies outside the city at this time, and Jiaoli actually does not need to close the city gate. What's more, he must know that he will definitely come to reinforce after receiving the news, so it is even more impossible to close the city gate.
So what's going on?
Just when Hai Lie was puzzled, he turned his eyes to the top of the city, and then his whole body was shaken, his expression changed drastically.
He actually saw that on the top of the city, the people of this city were still defending, and the soldiers seemed to be happy, as if they had won a battle, all of them were smiling.
"problem occurs."
No matter how stupid Hai Lie was, he would realize that something was wrong.
"Hahaha, did you receive the news that your people sent to take down here before, did you see that we are here and you can't see your people, and you think it's incredible."
A voice came from the city.
Hailie shouted gloomily, "Where are our people?"
Humanity on the top of the wall said: "What do you think, of course they were all killed by us."
Hai Lie roared, "Impossible."
The person above replied with a smile: "Believe it or not."
Hearing what the smiling face said, Hai Lie was annoyed by the loss of news about Jiao Li and his army, so he ordered angrily, "Siege the city."
The army stepped forward, and the siege broke out.
But not long after the fight started, Hailie received a bad news.
Soldier: "My lord, it's not good. The army of Lord Al Qaeda in the south was suddenly attacked by an army that appeared from the rear. Under the attack of the enemy's front and back, it is now completely defeated."
Hai Lie shook his body, "What's going on, where did the army come from, and why did it appear from behind?"
The soldiers said they did not know where the army came from.
The army on Jiaoli's side suddenly disappeared, and the army on Al Qaeda's side was defeated again. One or two emergencies made Hai Lie dizzy.
"What happened and why did it happen?"
Hailie racked his brains and couldn't figure out why the situation suddenly changed.
"No, Al Qaeda was defeated, and the army that suddenly appeared will definitely go to Lili's side. No, I have to rescue it now."
Hai Lie shook his head, forced himself to calm down, and immediately realized that if he didn't go to the west for reinforcements, the army deployed there would probably end up the same as Al Qaeda's army.
But just when he gave the order to stop the siege and prepare to go to the west for reinforcements, he suddenly thought of something.
"No, I can't go there."
Leary's army is in the west, but he is now in the east, and he will have to detour for a long way to go there. Let alone whether Leary's army has been defeated after passing, let's say that if he encounters the army along the way The army that suddenly appeared in the south, or that army was coming to his side, wouldn't it be a self-inflicted trap.
"withdraw."
Hai Lie made a decisive decision.
The two armies in the east and the south, one disappeared and the other was defeated, and they dared not go to the west, this time the Southern Expedition has already been defeated.
His only option now was to retreat.
But it was too late for Hailie to leave.
Because the army was in the rear, a 10,000-strong army suddenly appeared.
At the same time, the gate of Qinglong City was also opened at this time, and the soldiers who were originally guarding the city rushed out from inside.
On the left flank of the army, the cavalry and archery troops equipped with core rifles that had left before were stalking.
The only remaining direction to evacuate is to the south, but that is exactly the direction where Al Qaeda was defeated, and there might be an army in that direction, rushing towards them.
so……
Hai Lie turned pale.
"Surrounded."
