Chapter 1078: Chapter 1,077, chasing down the defeated army
Translator: 549690339
Morse was a warlord, and most of the armies he controlled were soldiers who came from the pirate family, or some local ruffians recruited near whale city.
This situation was similar among all the warlords in Damadi. Everyone’s armies were gathered in this way, and the quality of the soldiers was also at this level.
Such an army did not have a military spirit. Compared to the regular armies of other countries, they did not have the sense of honor that soldiers had.
Their combat strength was hard to say. Sometimes they were very strong, and sometimes they were very weak.
Basically, those who dared to fight and kill could be considered elites in the army, and those who could follow basic orders could be considered disciplined.
It was no problem for them to fight a smooth battle. They could also fight when they were evenly matched with the enemy, because such a battle situation would make them feel less pressure.
But when they were at a disadvantage, it was hard to say.
Yu Tian felt that the real test of an army’s combat strength was their resilience after they had fallen into a difficult situation.
Morse’s army was obviously not good in this aspect. Once there was a situation where someone fled, panic quickly spread.
The people at the back were running for their lives, but why should the people at the front hold on.
Other people could escape, but why should I be the one to die.
With this thought in mind, the soldiers at the front line did not hold on for more than a few minutes under the violent firepower. They immediately gave up resistance.
They began to retreat one after another. They even ran without caring about anything else, even throwing away their weapons.
Even the low-level officers didn ‘t have any thoughts of resisting. They only thought about how to escape, or whether they should just surrender.
Thinking about it, they realized that surrendering was actually a good choice.
They were either the cannon fodder soldiers under Morse’s command, or those small pirate forces. They couldn’t get many benefits from Morse’s camp, so surrendering was basically not a psychological burden for them.
If they joined the Abu Group, perhaps their treatment would be even better. After all, the Abu Group was developing quite well.
Since that was the case, why should they risk their lives to resist, or risk their lives to escape?
Could it be that there were other benefits for them to escape back to whale City?
Especially the leaders of those small pirate organizations. They had already received news from their subordinates and knew that Morse had left them behind.
Their current position was too far away from the convoy. It would not be easy for them to retreat, let alone escape back to whale city.
Although they did not know what had caused Morse to suddenly flee in panic, they could guess that the enemy had the conditions to win.
This made them feel that there was no point in resisting.
Hence, white flags quickly appeared on the battlefield.
Someone shouted, “Stop fighting, stop fighting, we surrender!”
Defeat could cause a chain reaction, and surrender could also cause a chain reaction. Soon, more people began to surrender. The battlefield was covered with white flags, and the sounds of gunfire gradually quieted down.
This situation surprised Yu Tian. If the enemy resisted stubbornly, they could still cause a lot of losses to their side.
However, since the enemy had surrendered, he naturally had to accept this result happily.
Soon, the surrendered enemies followed the order and put down their weapons. They walked out of the position in formation and gathered in an open area where there were no obstacles.
Yu Tian left a few people to watch over the captives and ordered the rest of the army to continue to pursue.
There were still many fleeing enemies on the road into the mountains. Yu Tian did not intend to let them off so easily.
The military vehicles that had rested for a long time were finally put to use. The scattered sand corps began their high and mighty pursuit.
The military vehicles chased after the trucks. Of course, there was no problem of being unable to catch up.
When Yu Tian’s fleet caught up to the outside of the mountain pass, the army that Morse had abandoned was basically wiped out.
Those who surrendered surrendered surrendered, and those who did not surrendered were, of course, shot to death by the machine guns mounted on their vehicles.
The people of the scattered sand corps did not have the patience to persuade them to surrender, nor did they have any mercy.
What they wanted on the battlefield was results and efficiency. They needed to capture or eliminate more enemies.
Yu Tian also followed the pursuing army all the way to the mountain pass.
He saw that not many vehicles were destroyed along the way, and not many enemies were killed. This proved that most of the enemies chose to surrender wisely.
Only a small number of enemies who had the illusion that they still had a chance to escape had been shot to pieces by the scattered sand corps with their machine guns and their vehicles.
These destroyed vehicles were basically trucks. They were not valuable to Yu Tian. So what if they had been destroyed? There was nothing to feel sorry for.
The enemy’s hundreds of military vehicles had really run out.
After all, their vehicle speed was not slower than the scattered sand corps. In addition, there were some defeated soldiers at the back that delayed the scattered sand corps’pursuit time. This allowed them to escape with ease.
When Yu Tian followed the army to chase outside the mountain pass, he could only see the shadows of the enemy’s fleet. The dozens of armored vehicles of Morse had run so far that he could not even see their shadows.
It was indeed difficult for them to catch up with those who wanted to escape.
However, Yu Tian could not just watch them run away like this. He still had to give chase.
There were nearly a hundred military vehicles on the side of the scattered sand corps, which could carry a few hundred infantrymen. Yu Tian personally led these military vehicles to chase after them.
Muhammad stayed behind to clean up the battlefield. This was also a very important matter.
In order to prevent any other unforeseen circumstances, Yu Tian requested that they clean up the battlefield quickly. They should try their best to clean up all the useful resources on the battlefield before their pursuit ended. The Death God mercenarv crouD was also left behind. Thev were oreoared to rest and regroup before retreating back to Kannima.
There were no dangers or difficulties after victory. Yu Tian did not need to give the death god mercenary group any more bonuses.
Yu Tian personally chased after them with over a hundred military vehicles. The next battle would mainly depend on the armored forces.
The armored forces did not only have tanks and armored vehicles. Colonel
Snoopy had also allocated dozens of military vehicles and trucks for himself.
These were all logistics vehicles. As the armored forces hid in the wild and waited for an opportunity to move, they needed to bring sufficient supplies, including fuel, food, water, and other things.
Now that they had lost the support of satellite reconnaissance, these military vehicles took on the task of reconnaissance.
Colonel Snoopy did not plan to let an enemy escape. He wanted to capture Morse with his own hands.
Yu Tian had already informed him of the battle situation. Currently, only a dozen armored vehicles and hundreds of military vehicles had escaped from Morse.
In front of the armored forces, these defeated troops posed no threat at all.
Even the new armored vehicles were too few in number to withstand a single blow..
