Zhen Biyu ordered his troops to retreat. This battle revealed one of her weaknesses–she did not train her forces properly. In truth, she did not put too much emphasis on them.
After the Cleanup, she spent most of her time waking Emperor Five Heart's memory while also trying to hide her changes from the Five Element Balance Palace.
As such, she had no time to train her troops properly. Furthermore, she also did not think these cannon fodder soldiers would serve any real purpose in this battle.
By underestimating the value of these troops, she failed to bring out their true values or train any peerless generals near the level of Li Jun or Di Jiaying.
'It's too late for regret now,' as Zhen Biyu thought of the consequences. When dealing with people like Wang Wei, she will have difficulty bypassing their well-trained troops and peerless generals on par with most Heaven Chosen.
