"It's really strange, why does Dayuan have an army of 20,000 people stationed in the rear?

Since we know their powerful army has been defeated, we should provide support immediately."

"Besides! Who is this general? Why didn't the secret report mention him, but instead asked us to kill him?"

"Could it be that this person's identity is so special that even Yunlu Pavilion wants to get rid of him?"

The commander-in-chief of Annan is no fool.

Think quickly about the key points of the problem.

Although this battle has the full support of Yunlu Pavilion.

But they also don't want to lose Yunlu Pavilion's complete control and become their pawns.

Since we have won such a great victory, we are unwilling to retreat immediately because of a casual word from Yunlu Pavilion.

We must take the opportunity to occupy a large area of ​​territory in the southeast of the Dayuan Dynasty.

Only in this way can Annan become completely strong.

One day, the Dayuan Dynasty may even be completely defeated and replaced.

This is the situation that every enemy country around us dreams of.

"Should we still attack? Could this 20,000-man army be a trap set by the enemy?"

The deputy general asked.

The Annan commander thought for a moment and said, "The letter said that only 10,000 are elite cavalry, and the rest are old, weak and disabled soldiers, as well as soldiers who are sick due to acclimatization in the south.

It's not difficult to solve them.

This news came from Yunlu Pavilion, so it shouldn't be a trap."

"Then what are you waiting for? Just give me 20,000 elite soldiers and I will immediately destroy this army.

No matter what the purpose of Yunlu Pavilion is.

As long as it benefits us, that’s all that matters!”

The deputy general couldn't wait to hear this.

Under no circumstances would they allow a large army to pose a threat to them.

"You have a point! I'll give you 50,000 troops and we'll quietly encircle them.

No soldier should be spared and they must all be annihilated.

Yunlu Pavilion provided us with great help, so we would like to repay them with this favor.

We can help them, but if they want us to give up the opportunity to attack the Central Plains, that is absolutely impossible."

"Humph, Yunlu Pavilion is just a sect! We need their help now, just to use them.

But when it comes to real interests, there is no need to pay attention to them.

What if we regret it?

Yunlu Pavilion is no match for our army."

The deputy general disagreed.

"Okay, leave immediately! Go and come back quickly, don't delay.

We must wipe out all the troops in the city before the Dayuan Dynasty sends reinforcements."

"Please rest assured, Marshal. 50,000 versus 20,000, isn't that easy?"

The Kingdom of Annan immediately sent an army of tens of thousands to encircle and suppress Li Ye.

As soon as their army moved, it was immediately discovered by scouts.

Come quickly and report the news.

Li Ye learned about the enemy's movements and was not at all panicked.

Instead, I felt very confused: "How did the enemy know our location?"

Zhao Wudi's face was serious: "Yes, the Annan army moved very quickly and rushed straight towards us.

There was no hesitation at all.

They must be very clear about the location and strength of our garrison."

"Could it be that there is a spy among us?" Ruyue Jun was greatly shocked.

This is no small matter.

If there is a spy, he must be found out as soon as possible. If he keeps informing the enemy, it will be very dangerous.

"It's not something to be mentioned, but I think even if there are spies, they are not among our army.

First of all, all of us come from Beijing.

It's impossible to become an enemy spy.

I think even if there are spies, they are trapped in the besieged city." Li Ye said.

"That's right, it must be Qin Qingxue who leaked the information.

However, we don’t have time to notify them anymore, so we have to respond quickly.

We must not leak this information to anyone else and cause panic among the soldiers." Zhao Wudi was very experienced.

Analyze and speak calmly.

"What else can we do? Since the army has been assembled, let's go immediately!

As long as we throw the enemy off, they won't be able to catch up."

Li Ye didn't take the enemy's threat seriously at all, and he could even laugh at this time.

"That's right. We'll catch the enemy off guard and keep Annan unaware of our intentions."

Ruyue County was eager to try.

I followed him to the battlefield, originally intending to observe Li Ye closely and get to know him better.

I didn't expect that the battlefield would be so exciting, which aroused the strong fighting spirit of the people in Ruyue County.

"I order the troops to move out immediately! Don't leave immediately, but circle around a few times to confuse the enemy about our direction of march."

"Leave this to me. My cavalry is fast! The infantry just needs to go first."

Zhao Wudi decided to stay behind to cover the retreat and eliminate any traces of the army's actions.

"The enemy is coming at a very fast pace. Don't delay. Once you've faked your tracks, immediately catch up."

Li Ye explained carefully.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, Wudi will definitely not delay!"

After making the arrangements, Li Ye set out immediately with his army.

Just let the soldiers take turns to rest, run for a while and then get on the carriage.

In this way, the speed of travel is not much slower than that of cavalry.

Zhao Wudi ordered his soldiers to rush in all directions for a while before turning around to chase Li Ye.

It wasn't long before the armies were united.

Run towards Annan as fast as possible.

By the time the Annan army arrived, they had already disappeared.

Only traces of the camp were left at the original place.

"Did he get the news and run away, or are we too late?"

"Go check immediately and find the direction the Dayuan army left."

General Annan was furious.

I thought I could easily accomplish the feat, but when someone rushed over, I didn't see a single person.

After searching for a long time, they still couldn't figure out which direction the Dayuan army retreated.

After hearing the news reported by scouts from all sides, General Annan's face became more and more gloomy.

This shows that his action was a complete failure.

"Perhaps the Dayuan army learned that the 㹏力 was under siege, and they were frightened and fled."

"These Dayuan soldiers are so cowardly. Seeing their own army being surrounded, they dared not come to rescue."

"General, do you want to expand the search area and continue the pursuit?"

"No need! Tell the entire army to retreat immediately! As long as we can destroy the great source of power, the remaining remnants are not worth mentioning."

General Annan acted decisively and immediately withdrew his troops to prepare for a full-scale attack on the city.

He was worried that something unexpected would happen if he delayed it for too long.

The news quickly spread to the city, and Qin Qingxue was very angry after hearing it.

"What did you say? Li Ye actually escaped with his army?

How can you run away when you encounter danger?

What a coward, what a waste! "

"We are now isolated and helpless, and we must prepare to defend the city for a long time.

I believe that from now on, the daily food rations of all soldiers should be reduced by half.

Delay as long as possible! "

The deputy general looked solemn and wanted to use this method to wear down the Annan army.

After all, they are an army of 200,000, and they consume a lot of food and fodder every day.

After looting the nearby civilians, they will retreat due to lack of food and fodder.
