"Retreat like this!?"
Wanluo couldn't believe that Ajiket had actually issued such an order.
He had yet to do anything, and just as he was about to make his move, Ajiket had issued the order to retreat.
Many officers of the third echelon shared Wanluo's sentiment, especially the generals who had participated in the previous battle of Benliang City.
Having gained an advantage so quickly, with the soldiers' morale at its peak, retreating now would make it incredibly difficult to seize such an opportunity again.
That's what they thought, but each general still obeyed Ajiket's commands, organizing their troops to retreat.
Without crucial logistical support, what would an immediate victory matter?
What Wansheng Country sought was a victory that thoroughly reclaimed all lost territory and forced the Luo Ze Empire to cease hostilities and apologize.
