Unfortunately, if things were that easy, Eric wasn't going to get what he needed from this war, so he decided to intervene a little bit.
Not wasting time, he immediately used his pets to start bombarding the army surrounding the city with all they had.
The idea was to throw them in panic, and then have them leave loopholes behind that could benefit the trapped Crab Clan inside the city.
The sudden attack was totally unexpected, and it achieved its goal like a charm, within a few moments, the army that had set up the trap fell in disarray.
This was a good moment and opportunity for the Crab Clan inside the city to make a break for it the moment that they saw it.
Of course, if they had the time to think about it, they might have not taken the chance, but now they didn't have other options, it was either this or certain death.
