    General Xue Yanku also looked solemn when he saw this tragic scene. The river beach in the distance was full of voices, and the first wave of troops crossing the river from the Far Eastern Army had already occupied the river beach.

    "Where's your general!"

    General Xue Yanku caught a soldier who was about to flee here in a hurry, and asked sharply.

    "have no idea"

    The soldier's face was full of fear, and his head shook like a wave.

    "Where is your general?!"

    General Xue Yanku captured several rout soldiers in a row, and only then did he inquire about the location of General Su Geshi.

    However, when General Xue Yanku found Su Geshi among the corpses on the battlefield, this brave general had already passed away.

    General Su Geshi died directly on the river beach due to excessive blood loss and severe cold weather.

    All the officers at all levels under his command were dead and wounded, so that the army collapsed directly.

    "You are alert to those Far Easterners, you quickly gather up the scattered infantry!"

    Seeing that the army of more than 10,000 people was beaten to collapse in a short period of time, General Xue Yanku was also shocked, and had to increase his attention to the Far East Army.

    He did not rashly lead his cavalry to attack the Far Eastern Army crossing troops standing on the river beach. Instead, he gathered up the scattered infantry and rushed back to the camp in person to report to General Ge Shuying and Generalissimo Ashnad.

    "What, Su Geshi died in battle?"

    When hearing that the titan Su Geshi had died in battle, General Ge Shuying was also stunned.

    You must know that Su Geshi is a capable general under his command, with extraordinary courage, and he has always regarded him very highly.

    It is precisely because of this that the titan Su Geshi led his troops to guard the river beach to prevent the Far East Army from crossing the river.

    But what he never expected was that Su Geshi not only failed to prevent the Far East Army from crossing the river, but was actually killed in battle, which made the general Ge Shuying very heartbroken.

    "The Far Eastern Army used a secret weapon. Many of us were blasted to pieces, with this sharp piece of iron embedded in our bodies"

    While General Xue Yanku was speaking, he took out several bloody iron pieces and handed them to Generalissimo Ashnad and General Ge Shuying.

    "It must be the thunder of the Far Easterners!"

    Generalissimo Ashnad is well-informed, and the intelligence personnel of their desert empire also found out a secret news, that is, when the Far Easterners defeated the Holy See, they used this secret weapon.

    He didn't take it seriously, after all, no one had seen it before, but now he saw that his team of 10,000 people was beaten to pieces in a short time.

    Coupled with the earth-shattering explosion just now, Generalissimo Ashnad's expression was extraordinarily solemn.

    "Thunder?"

    General Ge Shuying didn't know about this secret weapon, so he was full of doubts at the moment.

    "I have heard that this kind of thunder is so powerful that it can burn and make a loud noise"

    Generalissimo Asnard saw the puzzled expressions of the generals, and told them everything he knew.

    When the generals heard that the Far Eastern Army had such sharp weapons, all of them looked serious.

    If Tianlei is really as described in the description, then they don't have to fight this battle.

    "Don't be afraid, as far as I know, the sky mines of the Far Easterners are extremely complicated to manufacture, and they are rare in quantity. If you use a little, you can use a little less. Don't worry at all."

    Seeing that everyone was showing fear on their faces, Generalissimo Ashnard also hurriedly appease everyone.

    "We have a strong army now. It is not so easy for the people from the Far East to cross the river and take back the six Hexi prefectures!" Ashnad snorted coldly.

    "Generalissimo, I am willing to lead the army to retake the river beach and drive the people from the Far East into the river to feed the fish!"

    "Master Marshal, I, Nu Ciwu, are willing to take the lead!"

    The living environment of the desert empire is harsh, so they are also extraordinarily tough in their bones.

    Although a general had just been killed in battle, under the encouragement of Generalissimo Ashnad, they cheered up again.

    "No, give up the river beach and let them cross the river."

    Generalissimo Asnard saw the generals calling for battle, but made a surprising decision.

    "Master Marshal, no."

    "Once the Far Easterners gain a firm foothold on the river beach, their troops will come in a steady stream, and then they will attackIt's not easy to defeat them.  "

    "That's right, it's better to take advantage of their unsteady footing and knock them back!"

    Seeing that Marshal Asnard was going to give up the river beach, everyone became impatient and tried to persuade him.

    "If we counterattack the river beach, their catapults will definitely cause us huge casualties."

    "Those Far Easterners on the river beach are bound to fight us to the death in order to defend the river beach."

    "Besides, the arrows of the Far Easterners are sharp. Even if we regain the river beach, we will not be able to gain a foothold."

    Marshal Ashnard explained: "However, if we give up the river beach, it will actually be of great benefit to us."

    "They have already occupied the river beach, so let them occupy it, and let them mistakenly think that they can attack in depth through the support point of the river beach to expand the results of the battle."

    "So they will inevitably send troops across the river in a steady stream. If there are not enough people on the river beach, they will attack us."

    "We just need to wait for work, how many they come over, how many we kill, let the riverbank become their grave!"

    After hearing Marshal Asnard's words, General Ge Shuying was the first to react.

    "What does Marshal mean to force the Far Easterners to adopt refueling tactics and wipe them out wave after wave?" General Ge Shuying guessed.

    "That's right, they can't cross the river all at once, and they come in batches, giving us a chance to defeat each of them!"

    After hearing this, the generals were also in high spirits. They seemed to have given up on the river beach, but they had set a trap for the Far East Army invisibly.

    That is, the Far Eastern Army crossed the river in batches, which is equivalent to sending them to death in batches. They can completely wait for work and completely wipe out the Far Easterners on the river bank.

    Soon, a large number of desert empire troops drove out of the barracks, covering the defense line established by the Far East Empire on the river beach from three lines of defense.

    "Stop advancing!"

    However, the army of the Desert Empire did not launch an attack on the Far East Army on the river beach. After approaching them and forming a three-sided encirclement, they quickly formed a defensive line on the spot.

    Catapults, crossbows, etc. were also pushed to the front line, aiming at the defense line of the Far Eastern Army on the river beach.

    On the Ganshui River, the pontoon bridge is being built in an orderly manner, and it can be closed with only a distance of more than ten meters.

    Once the pontoon bridge is closed, the Far East Army on the opposite bank can cross the river continuously, expand the river beach position, and attack in depth.

    Seeing the torches all over the mountains and fields on the other side, Li Qiye, chief of the military department, and Liu Yidaoxin, the commander, also raised their throats.

    Now only the 10,000 brothers led by Wang Hu have crossed the river. If they can't hold the river beach, then their crossing attack will lose the bridgehead.

    "Send an order to Brother Wang Hu, at all costs, hold the river beach and wait for the main force to cross the river!"

    In order to prevent Wang Hu and the others from losing this bridgehead, the commander Liu Yidao also gave Wang Hu a death order.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
