Surrounded by fire and smoke, Huo Yi stood on the battlefield and fought without mercy!

About to win!

About to win!

Huo Yi turned his head to look at his father excitedly, only to see his father kneeling on the ground with the enemy's sword piercing his chest.

······

"No!"

Huo Yi woke up from his dream. He gasped for air as if he was suffocating. After seeing the layout of the tent clearly, he woke up, wiped the sweat from his head, and felt much relieved.

No, that's not right!

No! No!

Huo Yi's eyes widened and he jumped up from the bed.

Who is Zhang Ren?

A person who dares to forge an imperial edict and send troops privately!

Bold and aggressive.

Huo Yi didn't know what was going on on the other side of Yiling Changdao, but he certainly couldn't stop the main force of the Chu army under Ji Shu's command. But on this side, Wuxian Port gave up immediately.

Do you only stick to the county town and Baidi City? Half of the land in Yong'an County was given up in the blink of an eye.

This is not Zhang Ren's style.

Is it possible to lure the enemy deep and launch a surprise attack? Give the Chu army a head-on blow? Just like what Kuai Yue and his father did back then.

Huo Yi still remembered that General Xu Sheng's order was to explore the enemy's situation. If Baidi City's troops were strong, they should not fight and retreat to Wu County.

Obviously, General Xu had considered Zhang Ren's character, so he did not immediately march into the army after taking Wu County, but asked for directions.

"I am the pebble that asked for directions!"

Huo Yi cursed secretly in his mind and hurriedly put on his armor.

"The messenger! The messenger!"

The guard outside the tent heard the sound and hurried in.

"General."

"Send an order to send more scouts around. Report every two-quarters of an hour. If there is no response from the secret sentry, report to me immediately! At the same time, let the soldiers get their weapons, distribute two days of dry food to each person, and prepare to retreat."

The two guards who came in were shocked when they heard this. They were fine before going to bed. They had completed some tasks of exploring the terrain and clearing the road. This was fine. Why did the vanguard army retreat?

It looks like a large number of enemy troops are about to attack!

Looking at Huo Yi who was hurriedly putting on his armor, one of them spoke.

"But general, our army has been fully explored during the day for ten miles around, and hidden sentries have been set up, but no enemy troops have been found. General, are you confused by your dream?"

"It would be better if I was really dreaming and confused!"

Huo Yi was furious and said with wide eyes.

"You don't need to explain anything to the commanders. Just say that I ordered the evacuation of Baidi City at night, and retreat fifty miles. If there is a false alarm, we can only retreat dozens of miles to camp again. If my guess is correct, tonight

We have to walk through the gates of hell for a while! Go!"

A scolding immediately made the two guards understand that Huo Yi was serious, and they quickly turned around and left to convey the military order.

Soon, the entire military camp was in commotion.

Many soldiers walked out of the military camp with puzzled faces. It was obvious that they had not been able to rest from the fatigue during the day, and they were all listless.

Huo Yi could even hear the yawns of many people, but he did not explain his conjecture to the soldiers, but only asked the guards around him.

"How long have the scouts been sent out?"

The guard who was also riding a horse came forward and said.

"After you gave the order, the scouts were immediately dispatched. It must have been almost two quarters of an hour before the camp took action."

"No one came back to report?"

Facing Huo Yi's question, a cold sweat broke out on Konwei's head.

"There is no return yet. I should be back soon."

Ordinarily, because the distances traveled are different and the control of time is also different, after the scouts are sent out, there will always be some who come back early and some who come back late.

When it was time to report back, no one was seen, which naturally made people wonder if they had been ambushed.

If the guards around him were just suspicious, then Huo Yi could already feel the God of Death gently caressing his neck.

"Run! Run! March faster!"

The Shu army must have built a large net, but Huo Yi still doesn't know how many enemy soldiers there are?

Ten thousand?

Or twenty thousand?

Can't all Yong'an's troops be concentrated around Baidi City?

But Huo Yi knew that if the opponent originally planned to ambush Xu Sheng, it would be inevitable to lay heavy troops.

Why am I so unlucky!

I don’t know how long it took, but when I was marching to a slightly dense mountain forest, countless torches suddenly lit up.

"Enemy attack!"

As everyone screamed, densely packed rockets fell into the middle of the Chu army. Everyone hurriedly found bunkers, and scattered war horses were frightened and ran, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

Huo Yi swung his sword to block the arrow. One of the random arrows hit his armor, but luckily it failed to penetrate.

Seeing that many soldiers were in panic and rushed to cover and raised their bows to fight back, Huo Yi nodded secretly and shouted loudly.

"The enemy has only one or two thousand men. They are stalling for time. Don't stop shooting. Rush over. They can't stop us!"

"Shieldman! Shieldman! Run! Cover!"

The soldiers of the Chu army were pulled up in the middle of the night, and they were a little dissatisfied. Now that they saw that the enemy was really attacking, their sleepiness disappeared immediately, and they were even more convinced of Huo Yi. After hearing this, everyone quickly came to the rescue under the protection of the shield bearers.

Moved forward step by step.

It only took the whole team a quarter of an hour to pass through the mountain forest.

"Chase, don't let the Chu army escape!" "Kill!"

But the enemy didn't seem to intend to let them go, and bursts of killing cries came from behind.

Huo Yi breathed a sigh of relief at this time. It was difficult for the scouts to detect him earlier, which showed that the enemy's encirclement was large enough and far enough. Although they were blocked now, the enemy was not even prepared to block the road with traps or block horses, which showed that time

In their haste, they probably did not expect that the Chu army, which had been busy all day, would suddenly retreat in the middle of the night.

"Disperse and break out! As long as we return within a few dozen miles of Wu County, the enemy will not dare to pursue us!"

Huo Yi ordered his three commanders to lead 700 men to break out of the encirclement from different directions.

Since the opponent is not well prepared, there must be gaps in the encirclement. Crowding them all together will only make it easier for the enemy to deploy troops to contain them. If they are all dispersed, the enemy will not know which Chu army to contain, and someone will always be able to escape.

Huo Yi wiped the sweat from his forehead. The rest depends on luck.

I wouldn't be so unlucky!

······

The gray pigeon flew through the dense jungle, flew over the towering pass, and landed in a thatched hut in the mountains. A soldier took a long note from the pigeon's leg.

In front of Qutang Pass, a series of camps stretched out in front of them.

The main force of the Chu army led by Ji Shu finally arrived outside Qutang Pass one day ago.

"After Qutang Pass is captured, Yiling County is behind us. This county is undefeated, and Baidi City, a hundred miles away, will fall under the control of our army. In the past two days, let the spies find out the deployment of troops in the city, and hurry up to assemble and attack the city.

Equipment, launch a trial attack in two days."

Ji Shu was talking eloquently to Pang Tong, Huang Yueying, Zhao Yun, and Huang Zhong in front of the map, when Kuangwei suddenly came in and handed him a note.

"Hehe! Hehehe~~"

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Yueying's question, Ji Shu handed the note to Zhao Yun, grabbed Yueying's hand and said.

"Wen Xiang had already captured Wu County. He sent a vanguard of 3,000 people to Baidi City to investigate the military situation. They were attacked at night by Zhang Ren's 20,000-strong army. As a result, 1,300 people escaped."

Zhao Yun looked at the military report in his hand and nodded and handed it to Huang Zhong.

"This Huo Yi is quite a plastic person."

Yueying drew back her hand and said as if she had turned white.
Chapter completed!
