Chapter 1156: Eyes red with blood

Yuan Shao's order was passed down.

Yuan Shao's army launched another attack, and this time the attack was even more violent. Their army charged regardless of their lives, their speed increased significantly, and their eyes were red with blood.

"General, our numbers are dwindling; we must make a choice!"

"Retreat, as long as the green hills remain, there is no need to worry about firewood!"

"General, if we keep fighting like this, our entire army will be wiped out!"

Gu Yi's heart was conflicted; his eyes stared at Yuan Shao's camp, filled with reluctance. However, his heart was also filled with helplessness.

His inner self was hesitating, his heart filled with contradictions.

His heart was filled with unwillingness, and he knew very well that if he could not take down Yuan Shao, his subordinates, his family, and this camp would all be destroyed in one fell swoop.

Gu Yi's heart was occupied by hatred, and he roared loudly.

"Retreat, retreat!"

"Retreat quickly!"

"Retreat quickly, if we keep fighting like this, our entire army will be wiped out!"

"General, retreat!"

Gu Yi's army retreated one after another; they could not bear to continue fighting.

Tears fell from their eyes, their hearts filled with despair and fear, but their eyes remained firm, and their steps remained steady.

"My lord, let's retreat." Zhao Zilong also advised from the side. Gu Yi looked at Yuan Shao's army surging in like a tide, his heart filled with helplessness and pain. He understood that continuing to fight would only lead to more casualties and destruction. The reality before him forced him to make a difficult decision.

He took a deep breath, stood on high ground, and his voice sounded heavy: "Retreat! Retreat!"

Gu Yi's order reached the ears of every soldier, conveying the helplessness and despair in his heart. The soldiers heard the order, their hearts filled with mixed feelings; they did not want to give up, but facing the fierce offensive of Yuan Shao's army, they knew continuing to fight would only bring total disaster.

They began to retreat in an orderly fashion, stepping back one by one. Every soldier's face was written with helplessness and disappointment; they knew deeply that their fighting will and efforts could no longer change the situation before them. But even so, they still adhered to military discipline, maintaining an orderly retreat.

Gu Yi stood at the very back, his eyes fixed on Yuan Shao's camp, his heart filled with struggle and pain. He knew this retreat meant failure, meant losing many precious lives and resources. But he also understood this was his only choice, the only way to protect the remaining army and his family.

His heart was filled with anger and helplessness; he longed to brandish his sword and charge into the enemy formation to fight Yuan Shao to the death. However, he knew rationally that such an action would only bring greater sacrifice and destruction; he could not let more people fall into danger for the sake of his personal rage. ===== CHAPTER 1157 =====
