Chapter 1084: When night fell

"Yes! General!" Everyone shouted in unison.

Gu Yi nodded slightly, and subsequently let Chen Gong and the others return to the military camp.

As time passed, night soon fell.

"General, we are ready!" At this time, Li Dian hurried into the commander's mansion and said to Gu Yi.

"Hmm, let's set off now." Gu Yi nodded and led everyone, marching toward the Western Regions in a grand manner.

Following behind them were five thousand cavalry.

Gu Yi and his men, under the cover of night, rapidly headed toward the Western Regions.

Soon, they arrived at the border of the Western Regions, where there were five or six small cities; the residents in the cities had already been slaughtered.

"General, how should we attack?" At this time, Li Dian asked.

"We will find a hidden place nearby to ambush, and when our reinforcements arrive, we can launch an attack." Gu Yi pointed to the city of the Western Regions and said.

"Good." Li Dian responded and went to make arrangements.

"Brothers, tonight, you must keep your spirits up and annihilate all five thousand enemy troops!" Gu Yi shouted loudly.

"Yes, General!" Everyone responded in unison.

"Alright, now everyone disperse and enter the Western Region city in order." Gu Yi finished speaking and led everyone toward the Western Region city.

When Gu Yi and his men approached the Western Region city, they were discovered by patrolling soldiers.

"Stop!" The patrolling soldiers looked at Gu Yi and his men and shouted loudly.

"General, these people are here to rob grain; should we kill them?" At this time, someone suggested.

"No need, capture them first and send them to the open space outside the city for the General to deal with." The soldier said.

"Alright." The soldier responded, subsequently waving his hand to signal the other soldiers to surround Gu Yi and his men.

"Who are you?" Gu Yi scanned those soldiers coldly and asked.

"General, these five thousand men, leave them to us." At this time, Li Dian walked out and said to Gu Yi.

"Then I will trouble you." Gu Yi said with a smile.

"The General is too polite." Li Dian cupped his fists and said.

"I am going to the city wall to observe the enemy situation, so I will trouble General Li Dian to lead the army to attack the Western Region city." Gu Yi looked at Li Dian and said.

"Good." Li Dian nodded.

Subsequently, Gu Yi led Zhao Feng and the others to the city wall, looking at the enemy troops below the city.

Below the city, there were more than two thousand people resting.

Gu Yi looked at those two thousand people and thought to himself: "It seems those Western Region people are quite cautious."

Gu Yi saw these soldiers and was secretly shocked. Because he discovered that these two thousand Western Region soldiers were powerful, the lowest being at the Innate Realm, and among them were four Earth-level martial artists.

This lineup, even in the Great Song Kingdom, belonged to a very difficult existence.

"Li Dian, you all rest first, don't be in a hurry, let's observe first." Gu Yi said to Li Dian.

"Yes, General." Li Dian cupped his fists and said.

Soon, Gu Yi observed for a long time.

He knew these soldiers were just bluffing. Their combat power was not strong; they were just relying on their numbers.

Gu Yi knew clearly that these Western Region soldiers did not dare to act rashly; they were definitely waiting for their reinforcements, and after they arrived, they would launch a surprise attack.

However, Gu Yi was not worried, because he believed that Li Dian's strength was enough to crush these Western Region soldiers.

Subsequently, Gu Yi let Zhao Feng and Chen Gong stay behind to guard the commander's mansion.

"Chen Gong, go mobilize two thousand archers to come to the foot of the city wall and be ready to shoot at any time." Gu Yi ordered Chen Gong.

"Yes, General." Chen Gong responded and left the commander's mansion.

"Zhao Yun, you and Li Dian lead three thousand men to lurk near the Ximen and be ready to launch an attack at any time." Gu Yi looked at the other two great generals and ordered.

"Obey." Zhao Yun and Li Dian cupped their fists and responded.

"Li Dian, you go prepare too." Gu Yi waved his hand at Li Dian and Zhao Yun and said.

"Yes, General!" Li Dian and Zhao Yun cupped their fists again.

Soon, Li Dian and Zhao Yun led three thousand men to quietly lurk near the Ximen of the Western Region city, and here, they were ready to shoot the enemy troops at any time.

Gu Yi looked at these two great generals and nodded with satisfaction.

"Li Dian, in a while, I will let Zhao Yun and the others charge into the fray; you lead the remaining soldiers and be responsible for covering them. Understand?" Gu Yi looked at Li Dian and exhorted.

"Yes, General." Li Dian nodded in response.

"Chen Gong, go mobilize two thousand elites to ambush near the East Gate." Gu Yi looked at Chen Gong and ordered.

"Yes, General." Chen Gong nodded and also led his team to ambush near the East Gate.

"Zhao Yun, you and Li Dian lead the others to ambush near the Beimen." Gu Yi looked at Zhao Feng and ordered.

"Yes, General." Zhao Feng responded and led the other soldiers to ambush near the Beimen.

Subsequently, Gu Yi ordered other soldiers to ambush near the South Gate.

After Gu Yi had arranged all the tasks properly, he led Chen Gong and walked toward the top of the city wall.

Soon, Gu Yi arrived at the top of the city wall, looking at the enemy troops below.

At this time, those Western Region soldiers were all gathered at the gate of the city wall.

"General, should we attack?" Those soldiers looked at Gu Yi and asked.

"Attack what? Don't tell me you really intend to attack the city?" Gu Yi sneered.

"Uh..." Those soldiers heard these words, and their complexions changed instantly.

Gu Yi saw the change in those soldiers' complexions and was secretly happy, subsequently saying: "You don't need to worry; this time, you only need to be responsible for guarding the city, we won't let you die."

"Oh, then many thanks, General." Those soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and said.

Gu Yi did not speak, but waited quietly; he wanted to see when the reinforcements of the Western Regions would arrive.

"General, you say those Western Region people, have they already discovered us, which is why they haven't made a move?" Li Dian looked at Gu Yi and asked in confusion.

"I don't know, but we must be careful; I always feel that this time, those Western Region people are not simple." Gu Yi shook his head and said.

"Alright, everyone continue to rest and wait for the arrival of reinforcements." Subsequently, Gu Yi looked at the group of Western Region soldiers below the city wall and ordered.

Soon, Gu Yi sat on the city wall and waited quietly.

About half an hour later, the sound of hoofbeats suddenly came from the distance.

"General, it seems there are reinforcements!" Li Dian looked at Gu Yi and reminded him.

"I know." Gu Yi replied indifferently. ===== CHAPTER 1085 =====
