Chapter 30: Defeat, Dissatisfaction
Before Kai Mu could finish laughing, the arrows tore through the shields of the Yuezhi Tribe soldiers on the front line, turning them into hedgehogs.
After a short moment of silence, one of the generals exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible! How did their arrows pierce our shields?!"
Xue Ruhong saw that the new arrows could pierce the Yuezhi Tribe soldiers’ shields like tofu, and his eyes lit up. Raising his hand, he commanded, "Archers, get ready for another round!"
As the first team stepped back, the second team took position. When they were ready, Xue Ruhong commanded, "Release the arrows!"
Once again, hundreds of arrows rained down on the Yuezhi soldiers.
Kai Mu’s fury boiled as he watched thousands of his men die under Feng Army’s swords and Xue Ruhong’s archer team’s arrows.
With the combined efforts of Feng Xiyan and the Feng Army generals, the battlefield had completely shifted in their favor.
Realizing they were now at a disadvantage, one of the generals said to Kai Mu, "Supreme General, their weapons and arrows are far superior to ours. We should retreat first and find out what kind of weapons they are using, then revise our strategy before attacking again."
Kai Mu was reluctant to back down, but he also knew their armor couldn’t withstand the Feng Army’s weapons, and their weapons couldn’t even leave a scratch on the Feng Army’s armor.
Watching more and more of his men fall under the Feng Army soldiers’ swords and arrows, he clenched his jaw and made a quick decision. Turning around, he ordered, "Retreat!"
At his command, the war drums’ sounds changed again.
