Chapter 1186 Encirclement and Suppression
When Wu Yi showed signs of weakness, all the enemies rushed over like cats smelling blood.
This was a bloody lunch, without gentleness or modesty. When Wu Yi started to fight the local tyrants and divide the land, it meant that it was not just a pure war for dynastic hegemony, but also had some style of dynastic uprising.
This was a war between the lower and upper classes, a contradiction between the vested interests and the new interests, and a confrontation between the old order and the new order.
Therefore, war was inevitable and was destined to happen. It was just a matter of time. What Wu Yi could do was to make this war go as far as he wanted.
He did not require that the war should go completely according to his own wishes, because that was impossible and no different from wishful thinking. However, through certain guidance, while achieving victory in the war, he could also satisfy Wu Yi's own interests, which was to kill two birds with one stone at the popular level.
At present, Wu Yi's greatest interest is to continue the war and continue to destroy the original order. It would be best if the crowns of these small countries in the east were all knocked to the ground to achieve the deconstruction and reconstruction of the order.
When everyone in the army said they wanted to withdraw, Wu Yi did not object, but expressed his support. He led the heavy army behind to prevent the enemy's surprise attack, and let those who were not strong in fighting lead the way in front to find out the truth.
Although it was a place he had passed before, there was no effective rule. Many areas were plundered back by the restoration forces, and bandits were rampant. It was not so easy.
Although the road to return was difficult, you must know that once the sophisticated machine of the army started, it would not be easy to stop.
Wu Yi knew that his withdrawal this time would definitely attract the pursuit and interception of the coalition forces of small countries. Through the news of the inner demon body and the reports from scouts from all directions, Wu Yi also knew that the small countries were still carrying out crazy conscription, and the number of people finally put into the battlefield must be an extremely large number.
In fact, even without the inner demon body and scouts, Wu Yi could calculate these. It was just that after getting the news, he could further confirm the enemy's military strength.
Wu Yi knew this, but he still ordered the withdrawal because Wu Yi's real purpose was not to withdraw, but to retreat in order to advance and achieve the purpose of continuing to fight.
Including deliberately letting those who were not determined to fight and always wanted to go home to explore the way, and also used them as bait to prepare to catch a big fish.
The bait was likely to be sacrificed. In this way, when others saw the end of the retreat, they might burn their boats and follow Wu Yi to fight.
Cutting off the retreat, it is not difficult to imagine that the destructive power of this unit will be stronger, or more violent. Although there may be accidental injuries, it can speed up the destruction of the old order, which is enough.
Although after crossing Hengchuanling, it is basically a flat plain, there are also some undulating hills. In order to conceal the march, sometimes you have to go through dense forests.
At this moment, the central army led by Wu Yi was stationed in a small forest, which was a cool place. The soldiers had been running for a long time and had a place to rest.
The scouts were scattered far away. Not to mention hundreds of miles, the clues within dozens of miles were all under Wu Yi's control. This was the detail level. If we talk about the overall situation, the inner demon body can see which side has heavier calamity and deeper evil spirit, and know where there is an ambush and which side has a large army advancing.
Generally speaking, extraordinary beings will not interfere in human affairs. Once they intervene, not to mention that they are infected with cause and effect, it is difficult to get rid of it, and human nature is not a harmless little white rabbit.
The existence of the emperor's jade decree, the imperial sword, etc., no matter which one, can wipe out the immortals. Do you really think that you are superior because you have some magic power? Do you know that man can conquer nature?
But the inner demon body is different. First of all, it is naturally the special relationship between the inner demon body and the human body. They are originally divided from one soul. As long as one is a Taiyi immortal, he can trace back along the long river of time and see the inseparable threads between the human body and the inner demon body.
Secondly, the inner demon body has the black lotus, and the importance of the black lotus has been emphasized countless times. As a sacred object of heaven and earth calamity, it originally drives this dynasty to change, and it is not something that can be easily erased by external forces.
Under the joint action of these two factors, although he is under the rule of humanity, Wu Yi can abnormally get the assistance of extraordinary power, which can be called a big anomaly.
In fact, even if he knows that he is an anomaly, Wu Yi has never been complacent about it. He is an anomaly, not a saint, and does not have the ability to live as long as the heaven and earth, and shine as brightly as the sun and the moon. He should be cautious and cautious.
During the rest period, a bloodstained scout rode a fast horse and galloped towards the central army. The warhorse under his crotch had already begun to spit white foam from the mouth, but the soldiers were still pushing hard, which showed that the content of this report was definitely not simple.
When the scout jumped off the warhorse, the warhorse suddenly stopped from running violently, wailed, fell to the ground, and the white foam in its mouth gathered into a small river.
Its heart, which was originally beating rapidly, seemed to be suddenly caught by someone and exploded for a while. The warhorse was sweating all over, and blood slowly overflowed from its mouth.
The horse had no hope of survival. It looked around with expectant and helpless eyes, and finally slowly closed its eyes.
The warhorse was the closest companion of the soldiers. They would not eat horse meat unless they were forced to take off the saddle. The soldiers around sighed and buried the horse to prevent it from being eaten by night wolves in the middle of the night. It was also the last bit of kindness.
The scout entered the camp, performed a military salute, and said: "The front army has been surrounded by the enemy. Please send troops to assist as soon as possible!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the generals in the camp changed slightly. The enemy did not attack the Chinese army, but instead blocked Wu Yi and others' return path. Did they want to trap Wu Yi and others here?
"Have you ever seen clearly how many soldiers and horses the enemy has?" a general asked the scout. This was also the main question at the moment.
"When the enemy came, the sky was filled with sand and dust, and they were surrounded from all directions. They came in an endless stream. At least there were 50,000 people!"
The generals sitting on both sides looked at each other, and their expressions were not very good. They only had 50,000 troops in total. Once the opponent made a move, it would be their entire army. How could they continue the war?
Some generals did not believe it and sternly said to the scouts: "If you rush to report military information, you will be dealt with according to military law!"
"If you climb up and look far away, the enemy army will only be more than this number!" And the scout was not timid and said stiffly.
The scene calmed down a lot for a while, and everyone was thinking about countermeasures.
