Chapter 38 The Korean Army Returns

Standing on the chariot of the phalanx, looking at the battlefield between the two armies in front, the face of Han Ye, the commander-in-chief of the Korean army and Prime Minister, was full of solemnity.

The tenacity of the Wei army on the opposite side had completely exceeded his pre-war estimates.

Even though he had put many more soldiers into the battlefield than the Wei army on the opposite side, he still failed to break through the defense line that was close at hand.

The Wei army on the front was like a copper wall and an iron wall, using all its strength to block the powerful offensive from the Korean army.

The frustration of the frontline offensive forced Han Ye to think about his next step.

Either make a desperate move and put all your troops on the battlefield; or you can temporarily suspend your troops and return to camp to regroup and prepare for the next battle with the Wei army.

Just as Han Ye was thinking in his mind, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed again.

"General Qi, the two wings of the Wei army have moved."

Hearing the news ringing in his ears, Han Ye had to stop his thoughts temporarily and looked solemnly at the battlefield ahead.

Just as Han Yue, the Han general beside him, said, after holding back the Han army's offensive with great tenacity from the front, the Wei army's two wings, which had been slow to move, finally took action.

If you look down on this battlefield from the sky, you can see that the Wei army on both wings is like a powerful giant pincer, attacking the Korean soldiers on the opposite side.

As the two wings of the Wei army entered the battlefield where the two sides were fighting, the situation suddenly reversed.

The Korean army, which was originally facing Wei's central army, relied on its superiority in military strength and was able to stabilize its offensive.

However, when the attack from the flank appeared, the Korean army's offensive came to an abrupt end in an instant, as if a ball had reached its highest point.

It has become impossible to go up, and the only way to meet it is to go all the way down.

Faced with this sudden change in the battle situation, the Korean army's offensive gradually turned into a defensive one while retreating step by step.

At this moment, the atmosphere on the battlefield began to become a little depressing.

Seeing that the situation on the battlefield was no longer favorable to the Han army, Han Yue's eyes showed an anxious look, "Prime Minister, the Wei army is coming out on both sides. I'm afraid our army can't withstand it..."

But this time, before he could say anything, Han Ye stretched out his hand to interrupt him.

"do not talk."

Looking at the Han soldiers struggling to support the Wei army's offensive ahead, a determination slowly emerged in Han Ye's eyes.

"Pass my general's order..."

Han Ye's voice suddenly stopped halfway through the order. He slowly closed his eyes and slowly spoke out the remaining two words in an unquestionable tone.

"retreat."

Hearing this order from the commander-in-chief Han Ye, Han Yue was extremely excited. He wanted to persuade the other party to let him lead his army to a showdown with the Wei army on the opposite side.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say anything. He could only bow with deep reluctance.

"Here."

At this moment, Han Yue felt that her mood was so familiar, and the healed scar on her cheek seemed to be aching again.

The next moment, with the sound of gold ringing from the Korean military formation, the situation on the battlefield changed again.

Now on the defensive, the Korean army began to work hard to break away from the Wei army in front of them, and retreated step by step back to the square formation behind them.

The movements of the Korean army were naturally noticed by the general of the Wei army, Gongsun Qi, but he did not issue an order to pursue the soldiers under his command.

Following Gongsun Qi's order, a wave of orders to withdraw troops also sounded from behind the Wei army's phalanx. The soldiers who were preparing to retreat had to choose to retreat to their own formation.

Seeing that the Wei army continued to pursue, with deep reluctance in his heart, Han General Han Yue led his soldiers and slowly left the battlefield.

A long time later, when the smoke on the battlefield gradually dissipated with the disappearance of the Korean army, Gongsun Qi looked at the western sky in the distance.

At this time, an upward arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.



Walking on the road back to the camp, although the faces of the Korean soldiers remained calm, there was a hint of gloom between their brows.

At this moment, the somewhat damaged armor on their bodies made the images of these Korean soldiers look so embarrassed.

Originally, before the war started, they thought that this battle would be able to annihilate the Wei army facing them in one fell swoop, and even use the power of victory to overwhelm Wei's territory.

But when they actually fought against each other, Wei Jun's powerful combat power really made them feel a little powerless.

Even though the Korean army had tried its best, the Wei army's defense line was still like a copper wall, blocking them from the imminent victory.

In the end, the Wei army, relying on its strong combat power and tenacious perseverance, took advantage of the force and was forced to temporarily suspend the war.

The fact that the offensive was frustrated made the Korean soldiers begin to doubt themselves. Could they really defeat the powerful Wei army just now and achieve the final victory?

Haunted by this suspicion, the morale of the army gradually became lower.

Just as the Korean army was slowly returning to the camp, a somewhat frightened voice appeared in everyone's ears.

"There's an ambush!"

Just as this voice from the Korean army fell, there was a sound of bowstrings vibrating on the seemingly calm hillsides on both sides.

The next moment, dense arrows appeared in the sky above the Korean army, forming a dense black cloud.

The clouds did not stay in the sky for long, and soon one of the feathered arrows landed in the Korean army with great power.

"ah……"

"ah……"

"ah……"



At the moment when the feather arrow fell, screams and groans erupted one after another among the Han army, and chaos gradually spread in the front of the Wei army.

Before Han Jun could react, Wei Jun's next move was quickly launched.

"kill……"

Amidst the earth-shattering shouts of killing, many Wei soldiers armed with sharp blades came out from both sides and rushed straight towards the Korean army in front of them.

Even though its military strength far exceeded the sudden appearance of the Wei army, the Han army, which was in panic at the moment, was still unable to organize effective resistance.

The Wei soldiers kept waving their swords, and one Han soldier fell into a pool of blood.

It was not until long after the attack that the Korean army, which had lost a large number of soldiers, was finally able to stabilize its front.

When the news that the Han army's front army was attacked by the Wei army reached the Chinese army, Han Yue, the Han general who had just been holding back his anger on the battlefield, immediately stood up.

"I report to the Prime Minister that there is only a small ambush of the Wei army in front of me. I am willing to lead 5,000 elite troops to defeat this Wei army."

Looking at the determined subordinates in front of him, Han Ye did not refuse this time, "Go ahead and be careful."

"Here."

After bowing, the expression on Han Yue's face suddenly turned gloomy. It was obvious that he was preparing to use the sudden appearance of the Wei army to express his anger.
