Kapitel 373: Chapter 373: The Decreed General_1

Chapter 373

This was a battle that began at dawn.

The defenders were the Qingzhou soldiers of the Empire. In the clash with the Righteousness Church, the Imperial Army suffered a disastrous defeat. Too many were captured, too many were killed. Those who fled did so in disorder, while their pursuers were like wolves and tigers.

The commander from Qingzhou was named Han Ruoli, a newly-promoted junior general of the Empire. A promising future lay before him. But this defeat cruelly strangled his bright prospects in the cradle. Han Ruoli hadn't expected that these common people, upon taking up arms, would unleash a combat power beyond his wildest imagination, defeating in one fell swoop a combined force of one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers from Qingzhou and Bingzhou.

While fleeing in defeat, Han Ruoli was able to rally the remnants into a force of five thousand. However, they fell into the encirclement laid by the Righteousness Church.
