Chapter 1001: Survive From the Brink of Death

People were uneasy and anxious, waiting for the end of this army. Many people were not particularly optimistic about it, and they also made their own choices with their actual actions.

The guards went in and out, reporting the outside affairs to Wu Yi. The bandit leaders watched eagerly, not daring to say a word. At this moment, information is the most important. Whoever has the information has the initiative.

Among them, a few people were impatient and jumped up to resist. Wu Yi naturally shot them on the spot, just like stepping on ants, without blinking.

The cold means once again shocked them and made them silent.

It was just that they were confined in the tent for several days. Although they had continuous meals, they could not avoid physiological needs. Various smells were mixed, and mosquitoes and flies were flying.

Wu Yi ordered each unit to report the number of people regularly. As time went on, only a dozen people fled at first, and then hundreds of people left. At the final count before the war, the number of people had been dispersed by about 30%, and the already stretched soldiers were even scarcer.

The absence of these people is not a bad thing for Wu Yi. At least he can purge some factions in the army. After all, most of the people who escaped have close ties with a group of bandit leaders. They are afraid of being purged by Wu Yi and leave early to save their lives.

These thousands of people left, but they did not completely surrender to the northern tribes. Most of them chose to flee the battlefield, and the news brought by a few traitors was enough to expose Wu Yi's current position and the current situation in the army.

In order to avoid responsibility, these people who escaped spread the news of Wu Yi's defeat along the way, which implicated Wu Yi a lot afterwards, but it is not worth mentioning at this moment.

The Rinan tribe defenders knew where Wu Yi was and would definitely send heavy troops to encircle and suppress him. In such a situation, Wu Yi could not leave without authorization. Changing his position would make him a target that was difficult to move.

Therefore, according to the news sent back by the guards, there were more and more spies near the military camp, and the situation was becoming more and more serious.

Wu Yi sat in the center, intimidating these bandit leaders with different thoughts, and it was difficult for him to leave. As for the order, it was still spread without hindrance. How to dispatch and drive, without these bandit leaders, it is actually smoother.

It's just that there is a lack of time to run in. Facing the heavy encirclement of the Rinan army, is there really a chance of winning? Wu Yi himself doesn't know the answer. At this moment, he can only fight and survive.

Choosing this time and this place to break the contradictions in the army, Wu Yi naturally made many preparations. I dare not say it is complete, but it is not so simple for the Rinan defenders to take it so easily.

The current garrison location is densely forested, and in front of it is a terrain similar to a gourd mouth. If the Rinan defenders want to arrive, they must pass through an extremely narrow passage, and if Wu Yi wants to retreat, there are plenty of roads.

However, it is not difficult to imagine that the other party will definitely choose to raid from behind. This is military common sense. If the other party does not have this awareness, it is impossible to achieve so many results.

In response, Wu Yi deployed heavy troops behind him, ready to be a mantis catching cicadas and yellow birds behind.

After this order was issued, Wu Yi ordered the commanders of all departments to shoot and kill any deserters and not to spread any news.

The camp where Wu Yi was located was almost an empty shell with only a small number of troops.

Looking at the flickering candlelight and the sound of drums, it was actually all caused by the enemy. The cold and desolate camp was just waiting for the enemy to pounce and catch the turtle in the jar.

Empty city plan? No, the military camp was not empty. Wu Yi only needed a few troops to guard the gourd mouth in front.

Wu Yi arranged a lot of strong bows and crossbows, traps like pounding stones and rolling logs. It was not a problem to hold on for one or two days. He just waited for the main force to defeat the enemy attacking from behind, and then caught the turtle in the jar.

With this strategy, it was unknown how many enemies were coming at this moment. Should he choose to go around the back with most of his troops? Or should he choose to attack from the front and stab from the back. If it was the former, Wu Yi might suffer a disastrous defeat and even die.

In addition, the most critical issue is that no matter how good the strategy is, it is still implemented by people, and it is really hard to say how effective the implementation is.

However, now that the army has set off, Wu Yi is guarding an empty camp, and there is no point in worrying!

Tianlang City is nearby, and the wolf smoke mouth is hundreds of miles away. Therefore, before Zhang Tianwen's envoy arrived, the flag of the Rinan garrison was already in sight!

Before, Wu Yi attacked them in the dark, although the loss was not large, at most some supplies were lost and burned.

However, the resources of Tianlang City are abundant, and they still have some left after some of them were burned. They are not worried about losing the things they got for free, but instead stimulate their ambition to continue to rob.

They obviously have not forgotten the humiliation Wu Yi brought to them before. At this moment, the Rinan garrison wants to save their face. The flags cover the sky, and the smoke and dust raised by the war horses are vast and vast.

At the beginning of the war, they launched a fierce attack, with arrows raining down, wounding and killing anyone who was touched. If it weren't for the terrain, they couldn't form an arrow formation. With the few hundred or less than a thousand people left by Wu Yi, they would be wiped out in a few battles.

After a strategic retreat, they led the enemy's main force into Hulukou, and then rolled stones and felled trees together, causing the enemy to fall and bleed! They had no choice but to withdraw from Hulukou.

"Report - our army intercepted the enemy at the mountain pass and has repelled the enemy's first wave of offensive!" After the war, Wu Yi did not continue to hide his thoughts from these bandit leaders, and ordered the guards to loudly report the news of the battle.

However, after hearing the news, the faces of these bandit leaders were different, and most of them looked unhappy! The enemy, who is the enemy? There is no doubt that it must be the defenders of the Rinan tribe who saw that they had problems internally and launched a large-scale attack.

Ridiculous, the war has already started, and they still have to stay in this place. Wu Yi actually deprived them of their battlefield command. Now, they really became fish on the chopping board.

Many bandit leaders regretted that they underestimated Wu Yi, thinking that they had more people and more power, so they rushed in carelessly and were controlled by Wu Yi.

But, what's the use of regretting at this moment? They can only helplessly hear the mixed news coming one by one. At this moment, even if they resent Wu Yi, they also hope that Wu Yi will win. After all, if Wu Yi loses, they don't even have the opportunity to turn against him before the war.

However, the development of things seems to be very different from their hopes. Wu Yi's side seems to be a one-sided defeat!

"Report -- the enemy launched a second wave of attack!"

"Report -- the enemy attacked our position from above!"

"Report -- the first line of defense was lost!"

...

As the bandit leaders heard the news, their faces became more and more serious, and they even asked Wu Yi to fight!
