"What?" Seeing that there were more than a dozen people dressed as captains behind Fang Qing and Ni Youbin, Lu Yunyou was immediately shocked by the purpose of those people's visit.
"Brother Lu, don't be surprised, they just want to have a quick test with you before today's training begins," Fang Qing smiled, then continued: "Actually, they don't believe you can defeat those thousand captains. "
"In order to convince them, Brother Lu, you might as well discuss with them," Fang Qing suddenly became very excited when he thought that Lu Yunyou's next performance would definitely shock the audience.
"This..." Hesitating, Lu Yunyou didn't know whether he should agree to everyone, but looking at the hostile faces of the captains outside, he thought that he might not agree if he didn't.
"Brother Lu, you don't have to hesitate. Didn't our commander-in-chief just say yesterday that people in other military camps should not look down upon him?" Ni Youbin had already found out what happened yesterday. As a member of the infantry camp, Ni Youbin naturally wanted Lu Yunyou to agree.
"Okay," Lu Yunyou had no other choice but to agree.
Next, everyone found an open space and competed with Lu Yunyou in martial arts one after another. More and more people gathered here, even the generals stopped to watch, but Lu Yunyou could no longer control so many people. Since he couldn't refuse everyone's invitation, then He can only try his best to gain something through competition.
After Lu Yunyou concentrated on the martial arts competition, the Yi Army, which was chased by the Star Army outside Wufeng City that day and abandoned their helmets and armor, was at the location of the Beast Ridge Pass in the southeastern border of Feng Kingdom. The Yi Army had already arrived there, but the Yi Army had not passed through the Beast Ridge Pass. Go back and instead find a hidden location between the borders of the two countries to station yourself.
On the way out of Star Kingdom, due to lack of food, grass and baggage, tens of thousands of Yi troops burned, killed and looted all the way. They vented their anger of defeat on the people of Feng Kingdom along the way. They looted and obtained a lot of supplies along the way, so they retreated to Beast Ridge Pass. After that, Ruan Qiling had no intention of retreating to Yiguo.
After garrisoning, Ruan Qiling was writing a book to request military support from the Yi Kingdom royal family, while planning how to seek revenge from the Star Army.
In the battle of Windless City, as the commander of the Yi Army, he was completely humiliated. He never thought that when the strength of the two sides was so disparate, they would lose to the Star Army. Still a disastrous defeat.
Due to unstable military morale and low morale, he was worried about being blocked by the Star Army in Feng Kingdom and had to evacuate early. However, they retreated too quickly and many grain and grass supplies could only be burned. This was also the reason why they plundered everywhere later.
In any case, Ruan Qiling was extremely disappointed with the officers and soldiers of the three armies. If those subordinates were not brave enough, the battle in Wufeng City would never have ended in a disastrous defeat. Of course, the past cannot be changed, and a great revenge must be avenged.
The sacrifice of 200,000 Yiguo soldiers cannot be in vain, and even if he withdraws from Yiguo, he cannot explain to the leader of Yiguo. Therefore, in order to regain his strength and avenge his shame, Ruan Qiling did not follow the advice of the generals and retreated directly to the border of Yiguo. Instead of stationing there, they chose a relatively private location outside the Beast Ridge Pass to station themselves.
More than 60,000 troops are finally a force that cannot be underestimated, and through Ruan Qiling's continuous encouragement, the situation of the Yi Army has been greatly improved. Now many soldiers have thoughts of revenge. The fear that the Star Army brought to them is now fade.
In addition, during the evacuation of the entire army, Ruan Qiling had been sending people to pay close attention to the movements of the Star Army. He also knew that it was difficult for the Star Army to know that they had not retreated to Yi Country.
Once Windless City was defeated, they had lost the possibility of confronting the Star Army head-on. Even though the available forces of both sides were about the same, Ruan Qiling had no intention of confronting the Star Army head-on and could only devise clever strategies to deal with the Star Army.
Although their troops are currently insufficient, they can take advantage of the terrain, external forces, and even anything that can help them. Therefore, after receiving the news that the Star Army divided its troops and rushed to Beast Ridge Pass, Ruan Qiling immediately thought of a way to deal with the Star Army. Great idea.
After the vanguard of the Star Army arrives at Beast Ridge Pass, he will use the power of the vicious beasts to deal with the Star Army.
There are more ferocious beasts than people outside the Beast Ridge Pass, and their Yi Kingdom is very good at taming beasts. When they conquered the Star Army earlier, Ruan Qiling specially brought a beast tamer with him. This was also the reason why they originally used ferocious beasts to attack the city. location.
After subsequent discussions, Ruan Qiling has sent people back to Yi Kingdom in a winged car to fetch a lot of special powder that can attract ferocious beasts in accordance with the beast trainer's request.
The Winged Bird is the national bird of the Winged Kingdom. It is huge, has four wings, and is extremely good at flying. Its back is so wide that it can sit on people, and it is strong enough to carry a normal-sized carriage for a long time. It flies in the sky, so it is also called a wing car.
In the Yi Kingdom, the wing car is a special means of transportation. It is usually used by powerful people to carry people or things. The wing bird has long-lasting physical strength and can fly from the Beastling Pass to the territory of the Yi Kingdom, back and forth. Just two or three days.
After the specially prepared medicines were delivered, the animal trainer selected things that could be used to control or attract the ferocious beasts.
According to the plan, before the vanguard of the Star Army arrives, Ruan Qiling will first send people to scatter some medicinal powder that can be used to attract vicious beasts far away from the Star Army camp. Lead the ferocious beasts in the same direction, and eventually lead all the ferocious beasts to the Star Army camp.
Those medicinal powders used to attract ferocious beasts are made by the animal trainers of Yi Kingdom using the essence and blood of various ferocious beasts and specific medicinal materials. They have a unique smell and are usually only useful for ferocious beasts.
This kind of thing is very common in Yi Country. Generally, the animal trainers are very familiar with this kind of medicine, so with the help of the animal trainers, it didn’t take long for Ruan Qiling and the generals to formulate a battle plan, and everyone felt that If their plan can be successfully executed, it must be executed successfully, otherwise they will not be able to go back and explain.
Calculating the time, it was not long before the vanguard of the Star Army arrived at the border pass. Ruan Qiling was preparing to implement his plan. As long as the Star Army was not stationed in the pass, their plan was foolproof.
Seven days later, when Ruan Qiling set up a trap and waited for the Star Army's vanguard to enter, the Star Army's forward army was marching very slowly because it was carrying most of the food and baggage. However, after seven days of non-stop driving, the Star Army was still almost there. Star Kingdom border.
More than 30,000 people escorted hundreds of carts of grain and grass. The entire team was several miles long and looked vast. The majority of the front army was infantry, with archers in the middle and only a few cavalry. Their main duty was to escort grain and grass.
Three days later, 30,000 star troops passed through the border city and rushed to thirty miles outside the city. The first thing they did was to set up camp. The reason why they stationed troops outside the pass was because Beastling Pass was not like Aolan Pass or Aolan Pass. Like Windless City, there is no tall city wall, it is just a shabby small city. It is even more dilapidated after being looted by the Yi Army. The city is narrow and not suitable for garrisoning a large number of troops at all. Instead of reluctantly stationing in the city, it is better to build a camp Stay far away to avoid affecting each other.
The outside of Beast Ridge City is desolate, because usually no civilians go outside the pass. The gate leading to the outside of the pass is almost always closed for a long time, but after the Star Army arrived, it remained open at all times.
There is a large forest thirty miles away from the city. After finding a relatively flat and open location to camp, the Star Army has many things to do. Now all affairs are under the command of the cavalry camp commander Zhao Xianzhi.
During the march, the Xing Army maintained a neither fast nor slow pace, giving the Yi Army sufficient preparation time. The Yi Army was very aware of Xing Army's every move, but the Xing Army knew very little about the existence of the Yi Army. The enemy was hiding from us. Tomorrow, a bloody storm is brewing.
While busy setting up camp and making fire for cooking, Zhao Xianzhi did not consider the existence of the Yijun at all after choosing a place to stay. He just sent someone to briefly check the situation around the camp. But in this wilderness, the most he could do was observe the ferocious beasts. Just the movement.
After a day's hard work, the Star Army scouts found no trace of the Yi Army at all.
In the evening, the Star Army finally completed setting up the camp. After setting up protection on all sides, only a few people were left to take turns keeping watch. Zhao Xianzhi arranged for most of them to rest because there were still people in the rear and they needed to replenish their energy tonight. Wait until tomorrow to expand the camp.
Those who were responsible for the night watch were not afraid that ferocious beasts would break into the camp because there were open fires everywhere in the camp, and they were not even at all vigilant.
By late night, everyone was drowsy, and seven of the last ten people standing guard sat down to rest. Especially in the second half of the night, the people who were originally scheduled to change the guard did not come to change the guard for those who had been watching the night. The soldiers who fell asleep continued to sleep, and those who were not asleep were ready to rest for a while.
After many days of marching, they finally arrived at Shioling Pass. They were already extremely tired and naturally wanted to have a good night's rest. However, this was exactly what Yijun was waiting for.
In fact, there are always scouts from the Wing Army lurking around the Star Army camp. Those people are always paying attention to the movements of the Star Army. The situation in the Star Army camp is no different from what Ruan Qiling expected, showing that they have relaxed their vigilance.
After receiving the latest information about the Star Army camp, by the second half of the night, the area around the Star Army camp was already filled with sentries from the Wing Army. Those sentries led Ruan Qiling to give them the mission they had to complete and lurked secretly around the Star Army camp.
