The Queen.

The battlefield was very close to Jiangling City, and soon the defeated troops fled to the moat, jumping down like dumplings.

Everyone in the Chu army was good at swimming, and their armor was mostly made of leather or cloth, so not many people drowned.

Even Zhong Xiang abandoned his horse and jumped into the moat.

The emperor wore a pair of armor and sank to the bottom of the river like a weight. However, he was so good at water that he half swam and half walked on the bottom of the river. He walked more than ten meters without holding his breath and took off his armor directly at the bottom of the river.

The several bridges across the moat were completely crowded with defeated troops.

The archers who stayed behind in Jiangling would immediately shoot arrows in that direction whenever they saw a large group of enemy cavalry.

The city gates were also opened, and the defeated troops rushed into the city.

But Deng Chun did not dare to lead his troops to pursue him because there was a barbican city in Jiangling.

The defeated troops just fled into the Wengcheng, and the gates inside could not be opened.

If they dared to pursue the Wengcheng, they would immediately lose their cavalry advantage and be squeezed inside with countless defeated troops. The routed soldiers had no way to escape in the Wengcheng, and it was very likely that they would counterattack on the verge of death. If they were not careful, they would be caught in the urn.

Deng Chun personally guarded the prisoners, and asked Yang Yun and Yu Dian to lead troops to capture the defeated soldiers who fled to the surrounding suburbs.

Zhong Xiang sometimes swam in the moat, sometimes surfaced, and chose a safe place to go ashore.

Until two days later, there were still broken troops fleeing back one after another.

Prime Minister Zhong counted the number of people and found that more than 5,000 people were lost in the battle.

If we were not very close to our own city and were killed like this and the whole army collapsed, the limit of being able to gather a few hundred remaining soldiers would be the limit.

The morale of the Chu army was low. It was only one aspect that they suffered a defeat. What was more serious was that they discovered that the reincarnated emperor, Mingzun, was so frightened that he jumped into the water and fled at the critical moment.

Isn’t “Master” very powerful?

Zhong Xiang was filled with hatred and extremely fearful of the cavalry. He vowed never to fight with the Zhu bandits' troops on open and flat terrain again.

Then, to appease people's hearts, Zhong Xiang declared that Zhu Guoxiang was the reincarnation of the Dark Demon King, while Ju Ming was the Prince of the Dark Demon who descended to earth.
