Chapter 483: Soldiers Trapped in a Lone City_1

Chapter 483

In this battle, the Imperial Army suffered a considerable number of casualties, with only about five to six thousand soldiers fleeing back to Yellow Sand City. This was only due to Li Letian's timely order to retreat, thus narrowly avoiding total annihilation. Still, about three to four thousand men fell on the battlefield.

Such heavy casualties led to the army's collapse, and towards the end, the Imperial Army had essentially lost its will to resist. Their choices were either to flee or to brace themselves for slaughter.

Of course, among the casualties, the Qingzhou soldiers suffered the most, while the Liangzhou soldiers suffered relatively little. This was because the Liangzhou soldiers had already dealt with the Frog Army numerous times. Winning against them was unlikely, but escaping to survive was something they were good at.

In this respect, the Liangzhou troops, touted as a strong force in the northwest, lived up to their reputation.
