morning time.

Zhao Qian's face was terribly gloomy again.

He has already received the information that the second food delivery team was attacked by enemy fire at night.

Nearly half of the grain and grass were lost.

The first food transportation team has been out of contact for more than a day, and there must have been an accident, and the loss may be even greater.

If this continues, the risk of them continuing to march will be even greater.

"set off!"

Zhao Qian gritted his teeth and said again.

"Ah"

Seeing that the other party was still determined to let the army move forward, Li Yi sneered.

Since the enemy doesn't want to leave, then don't leave.

The first day of December.

night.

An earth-shattering thunderous sound resounded in the great merchant conquest army.

That night, the large merchant conquest army was directly killed by the "thunderbolt" countless times, and within a short while, the entire army had a collective roar.

Dynamite!

Appeared on the battlefield of this world for the first time!

at dawn.

Zhao Qian's face was pale.

overnight.

The army suffered more than [-] casualties, and thousands of soldiers escaped from the camp without returning, and their whereabouts are unknown.

Add up, more than 2 soldiers were lost.

Grain, once again lost in half.

The entire army was panicked.

Rumors can no longer stop.

It is said that they entered Baiyue and angered the gods of Baiyue.

At night, the fire from the golden eagles and the thunder from the sky were the punishments for the soldiers of the merchants by the gods of Baiyue.

"General, according to the investigation, the weapon used by the enemy to attack the camp yesterday should be gunpowder."

One of his subordinates walked into the big tent and clasped his hands.

"Is gunpowder so powerful?"

Zhao Qian said bitterly.

At this moment, he regretted it.

I regret not listening to Zhang Haoran.

Otherwise, so many soldiers would not have been lost.

He was afraid.

When there are not many fires in the sky, you can still take precautions.

"Thunder" strikes in the sky, who can resist?

Such a big loss in one day!

If the enemy comes like this for a few more days, their army will collapse before they can attack Manniu City!

"Send a message to General Zhang of the Shenju Camp to tell them, let's retreat!"

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Qian waved his hands, powerless.

Earlier, he had laughed at Zhang Haoran, out of a thousand soldiers of the Shenju Camp, only a hundred remained, if this war is over, if he can still stay in the Shenju Camp, it will be a great gift from God.

Now his guilt is probably not less than that of Zhang Haoran.

In just one night, more than 2 troops were lost!

In particular, under Zhang Haoran's persuasion several times, he did not learn the lessons he received from the huge loss of Shenjuying, and strictly speaking, his culpability was even greater!

However, he dared not retreat.

If he didn't retreat, his own life would be a minor matter in the grassland.

It may also affect the family behind him.

He is well aware of the arrogance and grand plans in the current Holy Majesty's mind.

For more than ten years, the Great Merchant army has conquered the Quartet, and there are very few defeats, and there are even more defeats. He handed over all the 10,000+ troops to Baiyue. There is.

Come with great momentum, go back with a disheveled face

The morale of the Great Merchant's conquest army fell to the extreme, and rumors spread everywhere in the army, so that Zhao Qian didn't know who to kill, so he could only pretend that he didn't know.

Now, he only hopes to bring the army back to Dashang territory as soon as possible.

Chapter 183 Famous in the World

Dozens of miles away from Manniu City.

Zhang Haoran received the message from Zhao Qian, a mouthful of old blood was stagnant in his chest, almost spitting out.

Marched for three full days.

We are about to rush to Manniu City.

His mood also quickly adjusted.

Zhao Qianlai is here?

"General Zhang, please make a decision as soon as possible. When I set off, the army has already started to retreat!"

The messenger soldiers sent by Zhao Qian bowed their hands in salute.

"puff!"

Finally, Zhang Haoran couldn't help it, and spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

He is also a top expert, but he was so angry, it can be seen how ruthless he is.

"General!"

"General!"

Some of the guards were shocked and even stepped forward to speak.

"I'm fine, let's retreat"

Zhang Haoran waved his hand and said with a lonely expression.

The last hope of revenge is gone.

However, Zhang Haoran was also shocked when he heard the message from the messenger.

A weapon suspected of being gunpowder, like thunder at night, killing and injuring countless soldiers. The entire army bombed the camp, losing more than 2 soldiers overnight, and destroying half of the food and grass again!

This loss is really too great!

No wonder, Zhao Qian didn't dare to march any longer!

If it were him, he wouldn't dare to march any further!

However, he was a little annoyed. He had persuaded Zhao Qian a long time ago, but Zhao Qian hadn't made such a decision earlier. If he had done so earlier, the army might not have suffered such a loss!

Now, they have been marching for three days, and it will take almost three days to return to the original place!

Back and forth, they will spend more time in Baiyue, at least five days or more!

For those who have problems with food and grass, it may be a world of difference, the difference between life and death!

"The great merchant conquest army has retreated?"

"Lightning strikes the camp? Over 2 casualties in the army overnight?"

Qinglongzhai also sent spies near the conquest army of Dashang. After receiving the information from their subordinates, all the high-level officials of Qinglongzhai were also shocked.

In the past few days, when they detected the news that 10,000+ large merchant conquest troops were coming towards Manniu City, and there were even [-] Zhenxi troops as the vanguard, and they might arrive at Manniu City at any time, they were also very nervous. Discuss with Li Yi how to do it.

After Li Yi led his men to destroy the One Thousand God Horse Camp, they had already placed Heifeng Village on an equal footing, without any underestimation.

Li Yi kept saying that there was no rush, he had already taken action.

They also knew that Li Yi had taken action.

Every night, flames shot up into the sky in the camp of the great merchant conquest army, and their intelligence personnel naturally saw it too.

Unexpectedly, Li Yi would do such a big thing all of a sudden.

Overnight, the enemy lost more than 2 soldiers!

The 10,000+ large merchant conquest army was repelled!

It is conceivable that if this matter gets out, Li Yi's name will surely shake the world!

"God Wolf, is this true?"

"The 10,000+ large merchant army has withdrawn?"

"The God of Condor, the God of Thunder, and the Moon God make a move"

Not only the high-level people in Qinglongzhai were shocked, but also the high-level people of many Baiyue tribes everywhere in Baiyue.

There are also many hundreds of tribes who are paying attention to this war.

Dashang's 10,000+ army entered Baiyue, including [-] elite soldiers from the Western Township Army and a thousand horse battalions. It has been a long time since Dashang has entered Baiyue with such a large amount of money.

Make them very nervous.

That night, the great merchant army camp roared, and many soldiers fled in all directions. It was naturally not difficult for their spies to capture some people and obtain some information.

Many Baiyue tribes don't know how much the Great Merchant army lost, but they can imagine that it must be huge.

For a while, many Baiyue tribes were afraid of Qinglong Village and Heifeng Village who had just settled in Baiyue.

Originally, some Baiyue tribes found out that there were some good horses in Qinglongzhai and Heifengzhai, and they thought that if the large merchant army did not wipe out Qinglongzhai and Heifengzhai this time, the remaining people and horses would be killed by them. Can help out.

By the way, let's see if we can ask for some "support" from the Great Shang court. If so, then we can get the best of both worlds.

Now, many Baiyue tribes dismissed this idea one after another.

The army of 10,000+ big merchants is in such a mess, what can they really do to each other?

Don't miss the benefits, and then plant yourself in, it will be a big loss.

In particular, the rumored God of Condor, God of Thunder, and God of the Moon made them feel taboo. Many Baiyue races believed in various totems, and the God of Condor, God of Thunder, and Moon God were just one of them.

Although, Li Yi had already sent eight top-level golden eagles to guard the messenger birds of the Great Merchants' conquest army, cutting off the information exchange between this army and the outside world.

However, the great merchants have established the country for a hundred years and suppressed the Quartet. Naturally, this is not the only way to obtain information about the army, especially since this matter is so big.

The fifth day of December.

big business.

Beijing.

It's snowing heavily.

The Great Shang Emperor, Emperor Hongwu received the battle report from Baiyue, kicked over the imperial case in front of him, and said angrily: "Trash! They are all a bunch of trash! 10,000+ troops, [-] Zhenxi troops, [-] god horse battalions , was defeated by two groups of green forest forces! How ridiculous! How shameful!!"

"Immediately write the imperial decree, and when the army returns to Dashang, immediately remove Zhang Haoran as general in Shenju Camp, remove Zhao Qian as commander-in-chief of the Western Expedition, and send them all to prison!" Then, Emperor Hongwu turned his head and looked at The servant on the side said angrily.

Below, a group of officials were submissive and dared not speak.

This is a defeat that Dashang has not experienced in at least 20 years. The Holy One is extremely angry, how dare they speak for Zhang Haoran and Zhao Qian?

at the same time.
