Immediately, thirty or forty soldiers from the dead or injured companions took the bow and arrow, stood up from behind the Duoba, joined the archers' ranks, braved the central army's dense rain of bullets, pulled the bow, pulled the bow, and shot the arrows again, and then shot the arrows. The same movements were repeated until they were shot and fell down.

As the war progresses at any time, casualties between the two armies increase rapidly!

Although the total number of casualties in the Western Army was several times that of the Central Army. Because the casualties were too fast, Li Dingguo even transferred 500 elite soldiers from the second echelon to the city top, as the Central Army got closer and closer to the city wall, the lethality of the archers of the Western Army was becoming stronger and stronger, and the casualties of the Central Army were increasing sharply!

At this time, Li Dingguo and Li Chengdong were like two martial arts masters competing. The two sides were competing for internal skills, and it depends on who could not hold on first.

In this regard, Li Dingguo undoubtedly has psychological advantages. It is common for the Western Army to destroy the entire army. The loss of three thousand elite soldiers is not a disaster. But for the Central Army, because of its previous brilliant record, more than ten casualties are enough to make people crazy, and more than a hundred casualties are so ashamed that they want to commit suicide!

When the throwing distance was still forty or fifty steps away, the Central Army's casualties had soared to more than a hundred people. Li Chengdong finally couldn't hold on. At this casualties, how many more could the Central Army leave when it rushed to the throwing distance? Such casualties were something that Li Chengdong could never accept.

The long military horn sounded, and the Central Army, which was sprinting forward, quickly turned around and retreated.

The Central Army did not have any confusion, nor did they have any hesitation or reluctance. They carried it as quickly as possible, helped up their dead or injured comrades to retreat quickly. From charging to a sudden retreat, the pause in the middle could hardly be felt. The Central Army's extraordinary military literacy shocked Li Dingguo again.

Such an army... is not surprising that it can defeat the arrogant Jiannu Iron Cavalry!

The fierce battle almost ended in a hurry just after the start of the beginning. From the charge of the 500 Central Army to the departure from the battlefield, the fierce battle lasted only less than five minutes. The battlefield where gunfire sounds were heard and the sound of killing sounds suddenly subsided, and the smoke that filled the battlefield quickly dissipated.

There were almost no traces of war outside the north gate of Xiangyang, because the Central Army rescued all the dead or killed comrades when retreating. On the battlefield, the Central Army never abandoned its comrades!

Since the day when the Datong Army was founded, Wang Pu has instilled the concept of "never abandon, never give up" into the hearts of all soldiers. Through the expedition to the desert, the bloody battle of Sanbulachuan, and the later Datong Defense War, Wang Pu even forged this concept into the military spirit of the Datong Army! The Central Army and the Datong Army are inherited from each other, and of course they also inherited the military spirit of the Datong Army.

However, in the hearts of the Central Army and the soldiers of the Daxi Army, the smoke of fierce fighting in just five minutes did not dissipate so easily.

For the Central Army, this is an unprecedented setback!

Not only because of the defeat of the offensive, Xiangyang City did not capture it as expected, but also because of unprecedented casualties, nearly 200 soldiers who attacked the attack had suffered nearly 500 casualties! Although less than 30 people were killed on the spot, and the rest were only injured by light or severe arrows, this was still a major setback that the Central Army had never experienced before!

When Zheng Chenggong and Liu Konghe came to explore the camp together, Li Chengdong was so ashamed that he wanted to find a hole to hide.

For the Daxi Army, this was also a disaster. In less than five minutes of fierce fighting, the Daxi Army paid the price of more than 400 casualties by defending the city. Among them, more than 80 people were shot and killed on the spot. More than 100 people were seriously injured and completely lost their combat effectiveness. What made Li Dingguo even more worried was that these seriously injured soldiers were obviously unable to be treated. There was only one fate waiting for them, that is, to die in endless pain. According to the previous practices of the Daxi Army, Li Dingguo must make up his mind to end their lives to save them from pain.

The fierce battle has ended, and the smoke of gunpowder on the city has dissipated. When Li Dingguo saw the wounded soldiers lying all over the ground on the city, he suddenly felt like a different life-long sigh in his heart: If the Central Army had such a few more charges, the three thousand elite soldiers he brought would have been killed or injured!

"Come!"

Li Dingguo suddenly looked up and shouted loudly.

A personal soldier came to Li Dingguo and responded sternly: "Here."

Li Dingguo slowly turned around, looked at the western sky, and said in a narrow voice: "Go out of the city immediately to find the general, and ask him to lead the main force of the Western Army to speed up the marching speed and rescue Xiangyang quickly!"
