The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Chapter 1408: Chapter 808: Slaughter and Escape_2

Under several days of warfare, the Iron Cavalry Army’s stamina was also greatly depleted; such a large-scale assault was obviously becoming unsustainable.

"Madam! At this rate, we can only hold out for one or two more days at most!" Wu Huahao clearly sensed the soldiers’ strain as well.

While hacking down the Tatars, he shouted loudly to Xie Qianyun.

Xie Qianyun naturally sensed it too.

This time, the Tatars were determined to wipe them out.

"Hold on for now, I’m going back to ask the Emperor whether we should retreat!"

"Alright."

Xie Qianyun quickly rode back.

Xiao Luming stood on the desert, watching the fierce battle between the two armies with a grave expression.

Seeing Xie Qianyun return, his eyes moved slightly.

"Your Majesty, the disparity in numbers between the Tatars and my Iron Cavalry Army is too great; if this continues, in less than ten days, the Iron Cavalry Army will surely be annihilated!" Xie Qianyun spoke quickly and urgently.

"Now is not the time to retreat." Xiao Luming was very firm.

Xie Qianyun looked at Xiao Luming.

"Tell the soldiers they just need to survive for four more days, the Great General will come to support us and push them to their limits!" Xiao Luming remained calm and composed, without a trace of panic.

Xie Qianyun bit her lip.

Military orders are mountainous.

On the battlefield, internal conflict must not arise, for once the morale is disrupted, it’s all over.

It’s necessary to unconditionally follow the command of one person.

She quickly turned her horse around and left.

After meeting up with Wu Huahao, Xie Qianyun relayed Xiao Luming’s instructions to Wu Huahao.

Wu Huahao didn’t hesitate for a moment.

As long as it’s an order, regardless of life or death, regardless of the outcome, it just needs to be executed.

He shouted loudly, "All soldiers, the Great General will come to support us in four days. We only need to hold on for four days! Everyone must not give up, victory is within reach!"

Wu Huahao’s resonant voice echoed through the sky.

The other soldiers chimed in, "Hold on for four days, victory is within reach!"

The loud voices resounded through the sky.

At that moment, all the soldiers seemed to be inspired, and everyone was crazily slaughtering, desperately slaughtering.

The immediate surge in morale clearly instilled some fear in the Tatar army.

Initially, the fatigue of the Iron Cavalry Army was apparent, but now it seemed they were suddenly replenished with energy, and the army’s morale was unstoppable.

After a day and a night of slaughter, even the Tatar army, though vast, was unable to truly defeat the Iron Cavalry Army.

Instead, their losses were terribly severe.

The Tatars had no choice but to withdraw their troops again.

It was clear that continuing to fight like this, the Tatar army, without any morale, even with maximum troops, was unlikely to win a grand victory!

It was also completely unexpected that the Iron Cavalry Army of Daxuan Kingdom was this formidable.

The Marshal was so angry he was gnashing his teeth.

Yet at this moment, he heard a report that the Oasis area had been completely lost, and now the fifty thousand troops sent back were making their last stand.

"Damn it!" the Marshal cursed.

The other generals were all full of worry.

They had lost all morale.

"Marshal, since things have reached this point, perhaps we should choose to retreat directly and return to the base!" the Think Tank suggested, "As long as the green hills remain, there’s no need to worry about firewood!"

"No way. I could never, surrender and admit defeat, I’d rather die on the battlefield."

"But even if the Marshal dies on the battlefield, it won’t help anything. The main forces of the Daxuan Army, led by Xie Ruotong, have already taken the Oasis. Even if the fifty thousand troops we sent back can only hold out for a few more days, I believe that the Daxuan Army will arrive here soon, and by then, leaving will be impossible!" the Think Tank analyzed the situation.

"Even if I have to leave, I want to chop off the head of that dog Emperor of Daxuan Kingdom first!" the Marshal was unwilling to accept defeat even if it meant death.

"But now we can’t take them down for the moment, our losses are already severe enough, and if they continue, defending against the Daxuan Army when we return to the base will only be impossible!" the Think Tank thought even further.

"The Daxuan Army has taken the Oasis, and it’s only a matter of time before they conquer our base!" the Marshal said grimly, "It’s come to this, if I don’t take down that dog Emperor, I’d rather die here! No one should try to persuade me, now immediately order the fifty thousand troops sent for support, to come back and assist me at once. I am determined to crush the bodies of the Iron Cavalry Army, and take the head of Emperor Daxuan!"

The Think Tank still wanted to say something.

The Marshal made a gesture to prohibit anyone from stopping his decision.

"All soldiers take a rest for a day, recover strength, adjust morale! Tomorrow, we march again!" the Marshal ordered.
