Chapter 1131 – History Is Just so Shockingly Similar

The Australian players could not handle the suppressive atmosphere and chose to throw their lives away and strike. All of them hollered as they waved their weapons of various shapes and sizes as they charged at the enemy formation.

When Er’Lai saw that, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

When one fought, there is a good sentence to describe it, ‘The violent people are afraid of those who fight without using their brains, while those who fight without using their brains are afraid of those who fight without care for their lives.” The current Australian player group was a bunch of crazy people who did not bother about their lives.

However, Er’Lai was not worried at all. Instead, he really happy.

This was the battlefield and not a chaotic street fight between hooligans. On the battlefield, craziness was not what was important. Rather, the key laid in calmness. Steel-like calmness to not lose one’s feet, and only then could one obtain the victory.

The Australian players were like a pack of mad dogs as they charged over. They did not have a formation and did not coordinate with one another. In front of the solemnly waiting Guards Legion Corps soldiers, they were a bunch of mobs waving swords and clubs, posing no threat at all. action

“Rookies are just rookies!”

With Er’Lai giving the order, the previous silent and motionless Guards Legion Corps formation started to work. Like an exquisite killing machine, it flawlessly led the enemies into an encirclement.

The moment the Australian players fell into it, they would definitely die.

Encirclement after encirclement; it was like giant teeth wheels biting at one another and pushing forward. The Australian players all fell in as expected.

Along with a large number of players dying, a bloody scent rose up on the battlefield and became thicker and thicker.

This scent further provoked the Australian players. Each one of them threw themselves in with disregard, trying to go out with a bright light.

Apart from the light, there was also darkness.

Some players could not handle the atmosphere and directly fled.

Amongst the 100 thousand vanguard forces of the Canberra army, 70 thousand of them were players. This was because they were the most eager. As such, they arrived at the battlefield the earliest.

The battle started at 4:30 PM in the afternoon. When the sun began to set, and the remnant light shone on this bloodstained wilderness, only then did the main force of the Canberra army arrive.

A replica of hell was displayed in front of them.

After being picked off by the Guards Legion Corps, half of the 100 thousand vanguard forces had died or were injured. The rest were either captured or fled in a panic, disappearing into the vast wilderness.

The battlefield was strewn with corpses all over. There were war horses neighing, and there were soft cries.

Those sounds were from the final survivors of the battle. Facing the tragic battlefield and the outcome that was far from what they expected, they felt a deep sense of helplessness and pain.

“We cannot win.” They were filled with despair.

“How did this happen?”

The main force that had rushed over could not believe it either. They looked toward the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps that had already formed up once more with respect and even fear, shivering in the cold.

The Great Xia Guards Legion Corps suffered little to no casualties. Their iron armor was dyed in a layer of blood, and only the tip of their spears and blades shone a cold light and dripped with fresh blood.

Boundless killing intent gathered up in the sky above the battlefield, fighting with the setting sun for supremacy.

“Gulp!”

Some people could not help but swallow their saliva to lessen their nervousness.

Based on the plan by the main force, the 100 thousand vanguard army would not be used to engage the enemy. Their mission was to set up camp not far from the enemy to build up a fortified point.

Who knew that they would actually be so useless? They had fallen apart before the main force had even arrived.

“Now what should we do?”

The generals looked at one another. Seeing that night was about to arrive,

they had nowhere to go in the wilderness. The hundreds of thousands of soldiers had walked for half a day, and they had not even had the time to stop and take a breath and eat.

“Back off five miles and set up camp.” The general ordered.

The general’s orders were very rational. Seeing that the sky was dark, the army was tired, and the moral was low, it was not a good time to start a war. Only by resting up and going past the night could they fight tomorrow.

Unfortunately, he misjudged the reaction of his forces.

The blood of the 400 thousand strong army was boiling. Using their last bit of courage, they wanted to charge at the enemy; they wanted to crush them.

Who knew that the moment they arrived on the battlefield, they would face such a huge blow. Instantly, their hot-blooded heads became clear once more.

The standstill just then had let them feel great pressure. If they launched the attack there and then, they probably would be able to muster up some courage to make a final gamble.

However, what they received was the order to retreat.

Just think about it. 400 thousand troops spread out on the wilderness like a black blanket, closely packed against one another. The imperial city guards and the combat occupation players each occupied half of the area, intersecting with one another.

When the retreat order was given, the front troops became the back, and the back troops became the front.

The ‘front troops’ that had the biggest pressure on them had no choice but to continue to bear it and remain still. The troops behind them retreated backward, one faster than the next.

Instinctively, this army did not want to face the Guards Legion Corps.

As they were afraid, they moved faster and faster.

The originally normal retreat slowly became a small jog, and then a sprint. In history, what happened in the Battle of Fei River to the former Qin army was actually miraculously happening on the Australian battlefield.

The back troops were running faster and faster!

The ones running at the front had exceeded the five mile range and were still instinctively running forward.

This caused a chain reaction. It caused the front troops to act up, some of their gazes started to waver, and they started to shift their feet backward.

No one dared to be at the front.

The seemingly small shifts finally gave rise to a huge commotion.

Someone taking the lead meant that there were obviously going to be people who followed. The front troops actually backed off altogether with tacit understanding.

The general noticed that something was not right, and he wanted to prevent the front troops from retreating. However, it was already too late.

Without mentioning the small troops, but even the middle generals were fleeing. No one would accept new military orders. Furthermore, they were retreating, so they were following the order.

Thinking about it, they felt better about retreating.

Just like that, in less than half an hour, the 400 thousand army was like dominos, swiftly retreating. It became faster and faster and more and more disorderly.

The entire formation was in a mess.

When Er’Lai saw that, he sharply grabbed the opportunity. He looked up at the setting sun, only to see that half of the sun was exposed outside of the dusk, and it had not totally fallen below the horizon.

Looking at the situation, there was at least an hour before the sky would turn dark.

“One hour is enough!”

Er’Lai was a decisive person. After informing Shihu, with an order, the Great Xia Guards Legion Corps that were waiting silently and were quietly resting up moved once more.

This move was like a lightning bolt, like a sweeping wind, like a tsunami...
