When Diao Si's troops climbed halfway up the mountain, he finally saw the huge imperial army. Maybe it was because they couldn't defeat Diao Si's weak army twice before, and Diao Si engaged in fratricide again. They didn't hesitate to send out heavy troops to deal with Diao Si.
Diao Si was very calm, because according to them, just over the top of this mountain is the place where Ruifeng City is. Although they said that the Guangnan Empire has long had the ambition to invade Ruifeng City, at least not yet, they will forget about it after they are out of danger. .
But in this hot weather, marching is not easy, especially in the mountains. But it might also be because the weather was too hot. Just when Diao Si was about to take a break, the sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds, and it soon began to rain heavily.
This heavy rain was really timely. Diao Si had not taken a bath for a long time, and the creek on the mountain had long since dried up. This also helped them solve the water problem. Those long-eared guys immediately took out military water bottles to fill them with water. .
However, the heavy rain soon stopped. It was really worse than a shower. The clouds seemed to dissipate, and soon the two fierce suns occupied the sky again.
"Why did the rain stop so quickly? This is inland!" Diao Si said dissatisfied, twisting the water from the leather on his body.
"Rain is like this. Have you ever seen different rain?" The old guy looked at Diao Si with doubts on his face.
Diao Si didn't bother to explain to them. He immediately looked at the imperial troops at the bottom of the mountain. They didn't seem to be climbing the mountain. They just sent a team to each side. It seemed that they wanted to surround the entire mountain.
is it possible? Diao Si couldn't help but ponder, if it was impossible, why would they do this? There must be something wrong with this. It is a problem with the defenders of Ruifeng City on the other side of the mountain. If they see such a powerful imperial army, they will retreat immediately, but how can the imperial army get there faster than them
It's best not to worry too much. According to the route Tintin mentioned before, they don't need to reach the top of the mountain. They can go around it on the mountainside, but the road there is more dangerous. This is not an important issue.
After walking for a while, their troops finally reached the other side of the mountain and saw another different plain. Strictly speaking, this is a basin, a very large basin. Those long-eared guys even pointed to Diao Si in the direction of Ruifeng City.
The imperial army still did not go up the mountain. At this time, as the blazing sun slowly fell, the temperature had dropped significantly. All of this made Diao Si feel good, and he was ready to let the troops have a meal and rest before returning to the city.
After the temperature dropped, he even slept a little sweeter. This time he didn't dream about the white-haired old man again. When Diao Si woke up, he was in good condition, full of energy, and very strong.
As he continued walking down the mountain, Diao Si saw densely packed troops crowding at the foot of the mountain in front of him. Could it be that the lord of Ruifeng City knew that they had won the battle, so he arranged so many troops to welcome them
It's not normal, especially the flags with the sun on them, they seem familiar and have been seen in previous campsites. Diao Si had actually thought of something, but he was unwilling to accept it.
"Prosperous wealth! Prosperous wealth!" Diao Si called Ding Ding over again, and then asked him if they had gone the wrong way.
Of course Tintin also saw the army below, but he shook his head and insisted that he was not wrong, that this was the way. Diao Si was a little angry, but he knew that it was useless to be angry at this time. The imperial troops waiting for them below were already surrounded.
"Captain, the wind dog monster will never remember the wrong way. This side of the mountain used to be our Ruifeng City. Why are there so many imperial troops now? We don't know what's going on." The old guy said at this time that Diao Si felt that his legs were weak.
Unexpectedly, he has worked hard to support until this point, but still can't see the light of day. Now it's over. The Imperial Army is standing still now, just to starve them to death. He was so stupid that he retreated to the mountain to wait for death. Diao Si's lifelong reputation in the gaming world was about to be wasted.
But how to fight? There are so many enemies, and even the number of arrows varies greatly. Even if the enemies are standing still and you kill them all, you won't be able to kill them all.
No, we can’t despair. As long as we are alive, there is a way. Aren’t those imperial troops afraid to attack now? Calm down, you can still win this game. Diao Si first arranged for Ding Ding to retreat to the other side of the mountain and monitor the movements of the imperial troops behind him. Then he watched the imperial troops in front alone to think of a solution.
The reason why these imperial troops did not attack was because they thought that Diao Si's team had no way to escape. In this case, he could move around and make the imperial troops nervous.
Thinking of this, Diao Si began to analyze the terrain of the mountain again. After his in-depth research, he found that they still had a way to leave, because the team surrounded by the imperial army was concentrated on the main road down the mountain.
This main road is the road that people usually use to climb mountains. There is no other road except it, but this is not inevitable, because the road is made by people. Diao Si can carve a path down the mountain in many places that are not very dangerous. If the Imperial Army really wants to completely surround them, their forces will be very dispersed.
Yes, that's it, we must find a way to get out, and we must not let them die trapped on this mountain. Diao Si has already thought about it, even if he has to sacrifice most of his troops, he has to leave here.
Okay, let's divide into three teams for the time being, and drive down the mountain from three directions to see the reaction of the imperial troops. So Diao Si divided the team and asked them to just clear the way, and once the enemy made a move, they would immediately retreat to their original positions.
In fact, the archers like them are not very strong, and the speed of opening the road is quite slow. However, when the imperial army over there saw them suddenly dividing into three groups and going down the mountain, they quickly reacted. Then the team separated as expected.
Okay, good job. Diao Si had a new idea as he watched the imperial troops circling in confusion at various locations at the foot of the mountain waiting for them. As long as it gets dark and his vision is somewhat affected, he will pretend to attack the imperial army and find an opportunity to leave here.
After the plan was finalized, Diao Si continued to disperse his troops to clear the way down the mountain. In this way, the imperial troops were divided one by one and their forces were not concentrated at all.
It would be quite some time before dark, which was just enough time for Diao Si to play with these imperial troops and see how they waited for work. As long as they continued to decline and rest, Diao Si would be unable to stop them.
Diao Si didn't stop to rest. The plan for this night was very important. He had to see all the terrain on the mountain. As he walked around like this, he also discovered some rocks washed out by the previous heavy rain. These can be used as powerful weapons for them. Then they can also make an attack in the east and use these rocks to attract the imperial troops.
The blazing sun continued to fall, and the temperature quickly returned to the previous normal condition. Only then did the old guy tell Diao Si that it would be dark for a longer time that night because the three suns would light up at the same time.
In this world, such a long period of darkness will cause the temperature to drop sharply. By then, the temperature on the mountain will be even lower, and they may even be in danger of being cold to death.
Diao Si was even more dissatisfied when he heard the news. This place was truly a ghost place. However, everything has two sides. On the one hand, this will test the survival of Diao Si's troops, and on the other hand, it will help them escape from here. In such bad weather, those imperial troops must be even less interested in fighting.
But just as Diao Si was planning step by step and toying with the imperial troops, unexpectedly they stopped and suddenly sent troops towards the mountain.
They weren't that stupid. After knowing that Diao Si was playing with them, they were able to predict Diao Si's next escape plan, so they took the initiative this time.
Their losses would be quite heavy if they attacked like this, but their strength was at least ten times that of Diao Si, and they couldn't be defeated no matter how much they suffered.
There was no other way. Since they had figured out Diao Si's plan, Diao Si could only fight with them. There is still an advantage now. The main road up the mountain is not wide. No matter how many enemies there are, they can only queue up.
Moreover, Diao Si also had the advantage of height. For example, if those rocks rolled down, even more imperial troops would not be able to resist them. There were still many uncertain factors, and Diao Si already had the entire battle plan in mind. (To be continued)
