The gleaming bronze tips enlarging in his pupils, nearly causing his heart to stop.

No time.

The Fong Tan Hua Gi he had just swung could not be retracted in time.

The weight of the weapon was considerable.

And after dozens of rounds of fighting, his arms were already fatigued.

At this moment, he felt as if the Fong Ton Hua G weighed 1,000 lbs, making it exceptionally difficult to swing.

In this life and death moment, Zhao Dong had no time to think.

Instinctively, he lowered his head, using his arms to shield his heart and head, bracing himself to take Lu G's three arrows.

The bronze arrow heads pierced through the leather armor, embedding themselves in his flesh, causing pain that jolted his pain receptors, twisting his face in agony.

What terrible luck, hitting the part that had no bronze armor protection.

Then there was a mournful cry, and his entire body was sent flying, spinning through the air.

Before his mind could process what had happened, he crashed heavily to the ground.

After rolling several times, Zhao Dongan managed to stabilize himself, gritting his teeth and looking up, he saw that the black steed he had been riding had already lost its life, having been shot down by one of Lu G's arrows.

Not dead, Lu G gritted his teeth, instinctively reaching for his quiver, but after several attempts, he couldn't draw an arrow.

Looking down, he saw that his right hand was trembling slightly.

Having just fired three arrows, he had exhausted almost all his arm strength.

He pounded his trembling right hand with his left fist.

Just as he was about to draw his bow again, he vaguely heard someone calling out.

Without thinking too much, he was focused solely on shooting Zhao Dong Nan from afar.

However, at that moment, the horse beneath him, which had been cooperating perfectly, suddenly became restless and unexpectedly took two steps to the side.

These crucial two steps allowed Luo Gi to escape death.

Seeing the bronze spear thrusting towards him, he realized that the opposing warrior was charging in, he quickly urged his horse to flee into the distance.

As the enemy general closed in, the faint shouts he had heard earlier became clear.

Despicable villain, let's see if you can fight me for another 100 rounds.

Hearing the voice, the middle-aged man who had missed his ambush flashed a look of weariness and did not pursue further.

He turned his horse and rode away, quickly pulling Zhao Dong Nin onto his mount as he passed by.

The retreat horn sounded, temporarily, bringing the battle outside Shiuan City to a close.

Chapter 246.

The horn of retreat amid the sound of the retreat horn.

The middle-aged man rode wildly back to Shiuan City withha Dongan.

Then he shouted loudly to a group of soldiers guarding inside the city, "Military doctor.

Quickly call the military doctor over.

" Zo Zoya.

Hearing a voice, the middle-aged man known as Zhao Jia quickly responded, "I am here.

No, we can't stay in this city any longer.

" At this moment, Zhao Dongan, who had already lost a bit too much blood, said with all his might after the outside troops have retreated, "Closed the east city gate and then withdraw directly through the west city gate.

" "Withdraw?" Zhao Jia was momentarily takenback by these words, but he replied, "But your majesty.

" I am fine.

Zhao Dong gritted his teeth and spoke in a tone that sounded anything but fine as long as the arrow is pulled out and the bleeding is stopped briefly.

At this point, Zhao Dongan gasped for breath and continued.

The attacking forces are too strong.

Staying in the city is like waiting for death.

After closing the east city gate, destroy the mechanisms of the east city gate and at least we can buy some time.

I will carry out the order.

Zhao Jia replied, "By the way, your majesty, you said before we leave, set two fires in this city for me.

" As he spoke, a hint of unmasked cruelty flashed in Joe Dong Nan<unk>s eyes.

Did he not want to take the city back? Then I will just give it back to him.

Hearing this, Zhao Jia's pupils shrank noticeably as if he wanted to say something but ultimately remained silent and withdrew.

Meanwhile, outside Shiuan City with a long exhale, Lu Gi dropped the long bow in his hand to the ground, his hands completely losing strength and hanging down.

Lu Mang, who arrived shortly after, dismounted in a panic and knelled on the ground, saying, "I am late in protecting the leader.

Please punish me.

" Luo Gi did not respond to Lu Ming's apology, or rather whether he heard Luing's words was questionable.

After experiencing a long period of intense concentration in battle, he now felt a bit dazed as he relaxed.

Maintaining this state, Lu Gi did not know how long had passed when he glanced down at Lu Ming, still kneeling on the ground, and slowly spoke, "Lu Ming, you are injured.

It's just a small injury.

Thank you for your concern, leader.

" Small injury.

Lu Gi glanced at Lu Ming, whose half body was already soaked with blood, then turned to look at the battlefield that had just experienced a massacre.

The sight of the scattered corpses shocked him.

Go gather the troops, take care of the wounded, and call someone to clean up this battlefield.

Leader, clean up the battlefield now.

For a moment, Luang was caught off guard and instinctively glanced at the tightly shut east city gate of Shiuan City.

Seemingly seeing through his thoughts, Lu Gi spoke again.

If he had any brains, he should gather the troops and withdraw through the west city gate.

Now, what about us? Luangs voice abruptly stopped mid-sentence.

He initially wanted to ask whether to send a troop to pursue, but upon reflection, how could they chase? The E city gate was tightly shut, and they couldn't get in.

Going around would not be faster than the enemy moving in a straight line.

Moreover, the soldiers under him had just endured a fierce battle, suffering heavy casualties, leaving them no strength to pursue the enemy.

Thinking of this, Lu Ming swallowed the words he was about to say.

And just as he was preparing to respond to execute Lu Gi's orders, thick smoke suddenly rose from the direction of Shiuan City, causing him to pause.

His expression changed drastically.

Lader, Shiuan City is on fire.

That guy realizing what had happened, Luo Gi's expression turned grim.

After regaining some strength, he quickly rode on the blazing fire and rushed to the east city gate, shouting loudly, "People in Shiuan City, listen.

I am Lu OG.

Quickly open the city gate and let us in.

" After Lu O G shouted three times with all his might, a young man poked his head out from the city wall, "Is it the leader?" "It's me.

" Quickly opened the city gate.

The bright armor and the blazing fire beneath him were basically Lu G's signature.

Upon seeing this, the young man was overjoyed.

Leader, wait a moment.

I will open the gate.

However, after some time passed, Lu Gi looked at the city gate that remained quiet and felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

Just then, the young man's voice came from inside the city again, this time with a noticeable cry.

Leader, the mechanism of the east city gate was destroyed by those outsiders.

And now the gate cannot be opened.

That scoundrel.

As Lu G's suspicions were confirmed, his expression turned even grimmer.

He shouted loudly, "Tell the people inside to work together to extinguish the fire.

Be careful to control the flames and move all nearby flammable objects away.

" And after giving a series of orders, Lu Gi decisively led a group of men around Shiuan City towards the west city gate.

Meanwhile, after a simple first aid treatment from the military doctor, a disheveled Joe Dongan had already led his infantry troops to withdraw from the west city gate.

Looking at the long troop in the woods on the right side outside the west city gate of Shiuan City, Lukai, who was hiding with his troops in the forest, furrowed his brow.

He had ambushed here, originally intending to take advantage of the enemy's defeat to lead 300 cavalry to suddenly strike and capture the leader of the invading outsiders.

However, he did not expect the situation to be somewhat different for what he had anticipated.

After the battle, the remaining enemy troops were estimated to still be over 3,000.

Charging at a troop that was more than 10 times larger than his own with 300 cavalry would be suicidal.

And as a strategist, Lukai obviously would not do such a thing.

Just as he was pondering what to do next, his deputy suddenly exclaimed, "General, Shiuan City is on fire.

" "What?" Hearing this, Lukai was startled and quickly turned to look in the direction of Shiuan City.
