When Harlandin fled like this, the army around him suddenly became confused.
Batoru and Lin Manzi also turned around at this moment and attacked the enemy troops chasing them.
An army of one million people collapsed instantly without a fight.
Zhao Rui did not pursue him. After all, his numbers were there. After he came to his senses and an army of one million people formed again, his army of 200,000 people would also be eaten.
After outrunning the opponent, Zhao Rui led the army into the city.
Tian Changgong also breathed a sigh of relief. No matter how strong his strategy was, he might not be able to defend such a small city made of rammed earth.
"Your Highness!" Tian Changgong hurriedly came up to meet him: "The opponent's military formation has been in chaos, why not take this opportunity to pursue it?"
Zhao Rui smiled slightly: "Don't worry so much, many of them will come and surrender before long."
Tian Changgong didn't ask any more questions and hurriedly welcomed Zhao Rui into the city lord's mansion.
At this moment, Le Sheng led the leading army to attack for more than eighty miles and arrived at a border city of Garuda Kingdom.
Almost all the troops in the country have been taken away by Harandin, so there are not many defenders in the outer city.
When Lesheng's army arrived here, the few thousand defenders in the city were so frightened that they didn't even have time to close the suspension bridge at the door, and the city gate was breached.
"The order is given that those who surrender can go home and receive food. After Garuda is pacified, they can also get land and houses."
The soldiers who entered the city immediately spread Lesheng's order throughout the city.
The soldiers of the Garuda Kingdom who had just been prepared to defend their homeland to the death immediately relaxed after hearing such an order.
A considerable number of people directly handed over their weapons and stood on the street.
The merchant army was extremely trustworthy, and some gave them local coins, while others gave them a bag of grain to go home, but the prerequisite was that they must leave their armor and weapons behind.
Looking at the coins and food they had just received in their hands, these Garuda soldiers suddenly felt a little dazed.
They have been soldiers and fought for so many years. It is good to have a full meal, but they have not seen half a coin at all, let alone get food.
"Gods! You are truly gods!"
I don't know who shouted, and the people in the city fell to their knees one after another, and all the remaining soldiers put down their weapons.
Le Sheng breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this tactic could be used in any corner of this land.
He did not stay here too long and continued to lead the vanguard army to attack the city and capture the territory.
Finally, they stopped in front of a city named Tianluo.
This city is a little different from other cities. It is the largest city close to the royal capital. There are 80,000 soldiers stationed in it, and these people are the personal guards of the Garuda Kingdom.
Not only are they very powerful in battle, but they are also stationed here all year round and never move easily. A large part of the generals are descendants of the royal family.
Therefore, being loyal to the royal family cannot be done with a few words, a few bags of grain, and a few gold coins.
After Le Sheng arrived here, he was not in a hurry for the project. Instead, he ordered to set up camp outside the city in a state of siege, surrounding the entire city.
