  Chapter 337 Advance and retreat

   I don’t know when, the sun has risen.

  The Jie tribe attacked all night, without giving Xinyang and the others a chance to rest.

  The whites of Xinyang's eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes after he hacked a Jie soldier to death with a knife. When he raised his eyes and looked into the distance, the light in his eyes completely disappeared.

  The Jie people... It seems that a large number of people have rushed over.

  He led the soldiers of Ningguo to kill more than 2,000 people brought by Lieyang this time. The scorching sun was angry, and naturally ordered a large army to be summoned.

  Xinyang exerted a little force on the hand holding the long knife, and the wound just scratched by the enemy cracked and hurt again.

   It's time for him to… make a decision.

   Feeling a pain in his heart, he whispered the military order to the herald beside him.

  The Ruan family's army retreated to the city first, while he... and the rest of the people took cover.

  The herald was shocked when he heard Xinyang's military order.

  But seeing the determination on the young and calm general's face, the herald instantly understood what he meant.

  When the disparity between the enemy and the enemy becomes larger, the only wise choice is to retreat.

   And the priority to retreat back to the city, Xinyang chose the Ruan family army.

  He knew that only the Ruan family army could play the greatest role in defending the city.

   When retreating, cover must be considered.

  So...Xinyang made the decision to personally lead someone to cover, which can be regarded as an explanation to the other soldiers who covered.

   Just as the herald turned around to convey the military order, the scorching sun suddenly moved towards Xinyang and attacked.

  What worried Xinyang the most...had happened.

   It's not that you want others to destroy your own prestige. Lie Sun, the great general of the Jie clan, cannot be underestimated.

   I heard that when he was eleven or twelve years old, he ruthlessly killed his mother who betrayed his father. After that, it was even more ruthless...

   Not only that, Lie Japanese people are born tall and powerful, both in strength and martial arts are very outstanding.

  Although Xinyang was a little flustered, he quickly adjusted his mentality and greeted him with the mentality of fighting to the death.

   At the same time, the herald has also conveyed his order to everyone.

  Even though the Ruan family's army didn't want to retreat, they knew Xinyang's motives for doing so.

  Everything is to defend Changzhou City!

   After seeing Ningguo's large army begin to retreat, Lie Sun immediately called his soldiers to attack more violently.

   "You Ningguo people are so cowardly?" Lie Sun raised his voice and mocked.

  Xinyang was unmoved, and coldly ordered the remaining soldiers to form a square formation to block the attack of the Jie people.

  The shields had been cracked by the Jie people, but the soldiers still gritted their teeth and persisted. Even if their hands were shaken out of wounds, they didn't complain.

  Because they also know that Ruan Jiajun is their sharpest knife.

  The sharpest knife must be used where it is most needed.

   Now all they can do is not attack, but defend.

  So, only when the Ruan family army returns to the city, will they have a chance of winning.

  Otherwise...it is meaningless to sacrifice all outside the city...!

  Thinking of it this way, they seem to be more powerful. The hand holding the shield blocked it outwards again.

  Until someone's shield was completely cracked, flesh and blood began to replace the shield to resist the enemy's attack.

   If they can buy a little more time for the Ruan family's army to evacuate, they will die!

  Xin Yang saw his men fall one by one from the corner of his eye. He clenched his fists tightly and raised his eyes to look at the expressionless scorching sun.

  Ruan's army has almost all retreated back to the city.

   And he... has no way to turn back.

   Li Han, who was standing on the top of the city gate and watching, his eyes turned red unknowingly. He watched the Ruan family's army return to the city under cover, and watched Xinyang fight to the death in front of the Jie clan general...

  And he...can't do anything...he can only stay here...

"Fourth prince, guarding the border towns is not what you think you can kill the enemy at will." Taifu Xiao walked to Li Han's side, patted his shoulder lightly and continued: "The border town generals must make a decision in a short time. A choice that is conducive to defending the city, with the smallest loss to gain the greatest gain. Even sometimes... the loss is as heavy as the gain. The Ruan family, not only can lead troops to charge, they are always ready to be scolded by the people for being inhuman and indifferent .”

  「It shouldn’t be like this...Soldiers should die on the battlefield...rather than being driven back in a wimpy state...」

   "Four princes, they can't fight a battle with no chance of winning with their own courage. Behind them... is Changzhou City... Changzhou City... can't fall..." Taifu Xiao's voice trembled a little.

  Li Han nodded half-understanding, then looked up at the figures outside the city.

   At this time, Xinyang was already covered in blood.

   But he still stood upright on the blood-stained ground. It was not until the soldiers around him all fell down that the corners of his mouth slightly raised to welcome the fatal blow from the scorching sun.

   "Xinyang..." Li Han leaned on the wall at the gate of the city, he wanted to call out to Xinyang, but he didn't know how powerless he was right now.

   Taifu Xiao also sighed several times with red eyes.

   Li Han exhaled forcefully. He knew that at this time... he couldn't be timid or sad.

   Enduring grief and ordering to send people to prepare for the battle of the city.

  Everyone is on standby.

   But Lie Yang suddenly turned around and led his troops away.

  This time is the best time to attack the city, and the scorching sun left suddenly... It is really unpredictable what he is thinking.

  Li Han also frowned in surprise and looked at their backs.

  「They are…」

   "Fourth prince, the other party is so abnormal, we can't relax!"

   Li Han nodded, and after instructing someone to observe the enemy's situation, he took Taifu Xiao down the city gate.

   After counting the remaining soldiers, the expression on Li Han's face became more serious.

  Xinyang brought out a total of 2,000 soldiers.

   More than a thousand people retreated intact, and the rest... all died outside the city.

  Now...there are only four thousand people left in the city.

   But there are about 100,000 Jie people...

  This disparity...

   "Fourth prince, some people in the city have stayed." Taifu Xiao spoke with a complicated expression.

  「There are still some left? Didn’t you order them to leave?」

  Seeing Li Han frowning, Taifu Xiao explained solemnly: "The ones left... are all strong and healthy young people. The women and children have all withdrawn."

   "A strong and strong young man..." Li Han murmured, and then his eyes lit up suddenly, and he dared not open the channel: "They are..."

  「They are always ready to join us in the defense of the city.」

   After the two glanced at each other, the emotion in their eyes was not hidden at all.

   At the same time, there was a sudden commotion at the west gate...

  Could it be...the Jie people are fighting back again?

   After Li Han asked someone to protect Mrs. Xiao, he immediately set off and ran towards the city gate.

   It wasn't until he approached there that he saw two familiar figures.

  At this time, Li Han seemed to have completely collapsed, and rushed over with tears streaming down his face.

  The two figures were none other than Ruan Ye and his son who had disappeared for several days.
