In fact, Liu Guozhu was also a bit stunned; he hardly knew what to do anymore. The sheer number of Qi Army troops before him had left him feeling undecided.
He didn't know whether to stop and wait for reinforcements or to continue the offensive. Both options carried enormous risks for him.
If he chose to stop, he and his two remaining tanks would be unable to control the at least 1000 Qi Army captives before them. Worse still, the surrounding Qi troops might realize they were only facing three Tang tanks and immediately counterattack.
If such a situation were to occur, they would be in complete danger. Venturing deeply into enemy territory, isolated and unsupported, even a retreat might not shake off the pursuit of the Qi Army—it would be no different from death.
