After hearing the soldier's words, the deputy general became even more confused.
At this time, General Annan also came forward and listened to what happened.
It was not long before one could deduce what had happened to the Dayuan army.
“It seems that there has been a fierce conflict among the generals of the Dayuan Army!
But I didn't expect that there was a prince among the generals.
It seems that the person Yunlu Pavilion wants us to kill is this prince.
But we all underestimated this prince. Not only was he a great leader of troops, he also defeated us many times.
He also took away the military power!
This explains why the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief of the Dayuan Army were expelled from the army..."
"I believe that the military power was definitely not taken away through normal means.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent people to assassinate them!
This is to silence the witnesses and to prevent the military power from being taken back." The deputy general also expressed his thoughts.
“That’s absolutely right, the internal struggles within the Dayuan Dynasty are very fierce.
Even on the battlefield, military power can be taken away.
As long as we can escape successfully, we still have a chance to defeat the Dayuan army."
"Should we continue to chase these two people?" asked the deputy general.
"Since these two people are no longer of much use, we can't waste any more time on them.
This forest is very large, so we hid our troops inside and looked for an exit.
Escape back to Annan as soon as possible."
"Yes, the people sent to silence us have already arrived ahead, and the Dayuan pursuers should be not far from here."
Although he failed to capture Qin Qingxue and Shi Wushuang, General Hannan mistakenly believed that there was a fierce dispute among the Dayuan army.
You can take the opportunity to escape back to the country.
Immediately changed the strategy of the army.
Let the army recognize the direction and speed up their journey.
Lei Ying and his men succeeded in their attack and had to report the news to Li Ye as quickly as possible.
Lei Zhan was still unhappy, and complained as he hurried on: "That boy Shi Wushuang is so lucky! He can even dodge the sniper crossbow.
Next time I assassinate a master of this level, I think I should bring two more to be safe."
Thunder Eagle Counterattack was very satisfied with the power of the sniper crossbow.
You have to know that they are dealing with top masters. It can be said that apart from the master-level monster masters, there is almost no one who can surpass Shi Wushuang.
Even though it was just a sneak attack, he was still able to shoot off one of his arms.
Such a powerful weapon is truly amazing.
If they could do more, even a master-level expert would have to temporarily stay away.
"What's there to be dissatisfied about? From such a long distance, it can severely injure a top-level ninth-grade master.
If this news were to get out, it would probably cause a huge uproar in both the imperial court and the entire martial arts world."
“Humph, Shi Wushuang is not a good person, let him live a little longer.
I will never let him escape next time!"
Lei Zhan was still feeling indignant.
I always feel that the tasks Li Ye gave me were not completed perfectly.
Lei Ying didn't say much and quickly quickened his pace.
Li Ye was found quickly.
Without getting news from them, it is impossible to lead the army to attack the enemy.
After all, you can't deal with Shi Wushuang in front of the soldiers.
“Greetings, Your Highness. We ambushed Shi Wushuang in front with a sniper crossbow and shot him in the left arm.
He had already been taken away by Qin Qingxue, and since the Annan army was also pursuing him, we did not continue the pursuit..."
Lei Ying briefly recounted what had happened.
Although Li Ye had already thought that it would not be so easy to kill Shi Wushuang, he still felt a little regretful.
His eyes dimmed for a moment, then a smile immediately spread across his face: "You did a great job! I'll give credit to all of you!"
You must remember to keep this a secret, not a single word of it can be spread.”
"Please rest assured, Your Highness. Those involved in this operation are all reliable people! They will not reveal a single word even if they die."
Li Ye nodded slightly.
"You guys go down and rest first! This result is good, Shi Wushuang has been half destroyed.
Given his personality, he would never be able to accept the loss of an arm, and it would definitely be a heavy blow to his spirit.
I can no longer pose a significant threat to the imperial court."
Zhao Wudi was both happy and regretful: "It would be great if we could kill him and put the blame on Annan."
"We set an ambush and attacked Shi Wushuang. Will he ever think that it was us who did it?" Princess Ruyue was a little worried.
Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that the person in ambush is definitely not related to Li Ye.
"Humph, if you want to identify the prince, you need evidence! These bows and arrows are specially made, and there is no way to trace them.
As long as I don't admit it, no one can do anything to me.
Let's just insist that he was leading troops against Annan and never sent assassins to kill him."
Li Ye said nonchalantly.
When Yunlu Pavilion supported Annan in attacking the Dayuan Dynasty, Li Ye had already completely broken off relations with them.
Li Ye couldn't stand the fact that so many people with the surname Qi were harmed for the sake of profit.
Li Ye ordered an all-out attack.
Drive the enemy into an ambush.
The army gave chase and launched a full-scale attack.
It was very inconvenient to fight in the woods in the past, but Li Ye had sufficient backup supplies.
Just using crossbows and bows and arrows, the enemy was completely unable to fight back.
You can only use a large shield to defend yourself and run away as fast as you can.
The Annan army had completely lost its morale and had become a frightened bird.
After being caught, he ran away desperately.
We chased and fled at the same time, and after a few hours, the road ahead suddenly became much wider.
Annan Shuai's heart skipped a beat.
The flat terrain meant they couldn't take cover.
But there were too many pursuers behind, and he couldn't turn back.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Leave another 5,000 soldiers behind to cover the rear, and the rest of the army will advance at full speed.
As long as we can find a way out of the cliff and send a small number of troops to guard the intersection, even if the enemy is too numerous, they won't be able to catch up!
We can then return to Annan smoothly."
General Annan tried his best to encourage his men.
You must never give up in despair, otherwise there will be no hope at all.
A glimmer of hope surged in the hearts of the remaining soldiers, and they continued to speed up their journey.
Li Ye led his men to chase after them and saw that the Annan army had left behind death squads to intercept them.
He left 10,000 men behind to deal with them, and led the rest of the army to continue the pursuit.
The enemy army has entered the pocket formation, and no one can be spared.
Not only can you completely destroy the enemy, but you can also obtain tens of thousands of armors and weapons.
Equip a large number of troops in preparation for the future occupation of Annan.
What's more, since the war had already begun, we could take care of the surrounding small countries as well and bring them all under the Dayuan Dynasty.
Li Ye is very clear about the importance of these countries in the south.
Once the fields are transformed, they can produce at least three harvests a year and will definitely become the granary of the Dayuan Dynasty.
Even in winter, there is a plentiful supply of vegetables.
This is another big business with huge profits.
