Chapter 4972 (2/2)

After half a day, the Western Black Ink Army had been forced back almost 100,000 kilo thehter the’s female adjutant approached, cupped her fist, and said, “Sir”

“Speak!” Zhong Liang had been studying the flow of the battle and estimated it would only take another half a day to clear the Western Army’s front By that time, he could call it a day and withdraw the ared us to act quickly and return theirdefeated”

Zhong Liang turned his head in shock and asked, “So quickly?”

He had borrowed troops from the three armies, and knew that such an action would have consequences; after all, the four sides of Blue Sky Pass were only holding fast rather than advancing before now Withdrawing 30 of the Eastern, Southern, and Northern Armies would undoubtedly put a heavy strain on thee, the other three ar didn’t expect the situation to become so bad so quickly He believed it would be a simple matter for the three other armies to maintain their lines for a couple of days at least

Contrary to his expectations, only half a day had gone by before this scenario played out

The adjutant then replied, “The Black Ink Clan have see the three ar Liang’s brow furrowed The Black Ink Clan was acting unusual, but he couldn’t figure out why, so he didn’t think too hard before he ordered, “Send thee, tell them to hold for half a day o there in person to assist them!”

The adjutant nodded and quickly carried out her orders

On the Northern, Southern, and Eastern defence lines, Ding Yao, Liang Yu Long and Shen Tu Mo received Zhong Liang’s reply The first thing they did was curse Zhong Liang for not supervising Yang Kai properly and allowing this mess to happen in the first place, but ianized their lines to assu all attempts to counterattack the eneainst the Territory Lords in order to buy more time for the Western Army

The fact that the three Ar to the Human Masters, and the Black Ink Clan Army’s reckless assault also resulted inbefore the Black Ink Ar so many losses, but they still refused to withdraw for some reason

On the Western Army’s defence line, the Black Ink Clan ar been pushed back al the as littered with Black Ink Clan corpses, showing the heavy losses they had taken in this battle

Two hours later, as the Western Ar into the rear lines of the Black Ink Clan Army, a peculiar situation arose on the Eastern Front

The Black Ink Clan Ar the Eastern Army’s defences, suddenly came to a halt for some reason, and after a brief rally, turned around and flew off

The Eastern Arawked in shock at the scene He had no idea why the Black Ink Clan Ar nearby cheered, “Ar!”

Ding Yao snorted, “I can see that, I’m not blind!”

The adjutant aardly cleared his throat and said nothing further

An injured Division Commander nearby frowned and muttered, “But, why? Army Commander, do we pursue theht be a trap The Black Ink Clanto lure us out”

The Division Coue his point, as he had si like this before They appeared to have evacuated their soldiers, but in reality, theyfor the Huo after theht

Just as the adjutant’s words fell, he received a communication and hurried to inspect it A moment later, he raised his head with a perplexed expression, “Army Commander, the Black Ink Clan on the Southern and Northern Fronts have also withdrawn”

Ding Yao turned his head hurriedly and asked for confirmation, “The Black Ink Clan to the North and South also retreated?”

The adjutant nodded fir us what the situation is here”

Ding Yao was now dumbfounded The Black Ink Clan withdrew its troops from the Eastern, Southern, and Northern Fronts What exactly were they up to?

Whatever the Black Ink Clan’s intentions were, such a large-scale three-sided retreat did not appear to be part of some elaborate trap There were si an entire ar a anization of the Black Ink Clan’s deploy any kind of trap they wanted to set useless, at least for a while

So, after a brief hesitation, Ding Yao shouted, “All units, pursue the enemy!”

The adjutant was startled and hurriedly discouraged, “Ar Yao kicked him in the butt and snapped, “Trap my ass! What kind of trap could there be in this situation? Inform the Northern and Southern Ar and Shen Tu Mo to make their decision quickly!”

He was the Army Commander of the Eastern Ar Yao believed that Liang Yu Long and Shen Tu Mo wouldalongside them for thousands of years They understood one another perfectly

Right after he gave the order, Ding Yao rushed out first, followed by numerous Human Masters froan pursuing the retreating enemy
