Chapter 1144: Listen Clearly to Me

This time, his goal was to completely wipe out those damn things. He wanted to let the people of the world know that he was the most excellent general; whoever dared to block him, he would kill.

"Good, everyone listen clearly to me; this time's opponent is our formidable enemy. You must all bring out your best state for me, strive to defeat the enemy early, and annihilate the enemy!"

"Yes, General!"

The great army was marching, and the great army was driving toward the enemy's main camp in a mighty force.

Gu Yi's great army moved at a very slow speed; every time they advanced, they had to cover a distance of several hundred meters. This kind of marching not only wasted grain and fodder but was also very damaging to the body.

But they could not retreat, because they had no other choice.

During the march, the great army encountered ambushes by enemy soldiers from time to time, but they were all able to dodge them.

Nowadays, the scouts were all observing the situation, and no one dared to strike again, fearing they would enrage Gu Yi.

Gu Yi's army stationed itself outside the enemy's main camp, and then he sent out reconnaissance troops to investigate the situation within the enemy's main camp.

Gu Yi's reconnaissance troops were all elites among elites; they infiltrated the enemy's main camp in batches to conduct investigations.

Gu Yi's great army kept infiltrating inward; they searched for intelligence in the enemy's main camp and were not in a hurry to act.

After spending about two months, Gu Yi finally learned of the enemy's movements.

He discovered that the enemy's main force was moving south, and behind the enemy's great army, there were many merchant caravans; these merchant caravans were transporting grain, weapons, and military supplies. These merchant caravans were all the imperial court's merchant caravans.

The corner of Gu Yi's mouth lifted slightly; these imperial court merchant caravans could be considered fat sheep! He had already smelled the deliciousness. He ordered the reconnaissance team to continue investigating; he wanted to know how much these merchant caravans transported and how rich the grain reserves were. If he could take them into his pocket, then he would be able to earn a huge amount of wealth.

The great army marched toward the south unhurriedly, and the great army's speed of advancement was extremely slow. During this period, Gu Yi bought off quite a few merchant caravans, and under Gu Yi's arrangement, they quietly approached the great army.

These merchant caravans not only transported grain, fodder, and weapons but also had quite a few personnel. They were the imperial court's merchants, and they were undercover agents planted by the imperial court within the enemy.

During this period of time, they kept contacting the enemy army, and through close communication and exchange, they obtained intelligence from within the enemy. They kept learning the imperial court's military intelligence from the enemy's mouths.

After these merchant caravans obtained intelligence, they would tell Gu Yi the intelligence at the first opportunity. Gu Yi learned of this intelligence and was very satisfied. He felt that these people were all very worthy of cultivation and would certainly be able to become the most powerful force in his hands in the future.

Just like this, the great army marched for half a year and finally arrived at the enemy army's camp.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and Gu Yi's soldiers had already rested. Around the great tent, there was no one.

"General, the enemy's main camp is empty; they seem to be resting."

Gu Yi nodded, and subsequently, he led his subordinates to approach the enemy's camp.

At a distance of about fifty meters from the enemy's main camp, Gu Yi suddenly stopped his steps, his face revealing a solemn expression. He looked around, then instructed the soldiers beside him: "You all patrol around; be sure not to let anyone approach our main camp, understand?"

"Yes, General."

Gu Yi's subordinates scattered toward the surroundings rapidly and began to patrol. Gu Yi stood at the entrance of the great tent, carefully observing the surrounding environment, his face filled with vigilance.

"This is indeed the best place for an ambush."

Gu Yi muttered to himself, his eyes continuously scanning the surroundings, hoping to find an opportunity to exploit.

His soldiers patrolled twice in the surroundings and still did not discover any suspicious people.

Gu Yi could not help but furrow his brows; he did not believe he would be deceived by someone. Could it be that the opponent had really given up the attack and transferred their position? How could this be possible?

Gu Yi could not figure out the mystery within, but he knew that this matter was absolutely not that simple.

"General, our men have already felt their way into the interior of the enemy's main camp." Just at this moment, a reconnaissance soldier ran in, holding two letters in his hand.

Gu Yi took the letters and opened them to check.

These were two letters, the content was very detailed, including the enemy's deployment, troop strength, intelligence, etc., and there were even maps.

"General, look, the surroundings of the enemy's main camp have already been surrounded by us. Now, we only need to wait for an opportunity to wipe them all out."

Gu Yi finished listening to the reconnaissance soldier's words, his face revealing joy, and he said hurriedly: "Good, very good, you all did beautifully!"

"General, you overpraise us."

"You all worked hard, go and rest!" Gu Yi spoke, letting the soldiers go and rest.

After the soldiers left, Gu Yi immediately dispatched his subordinates to investigate.

"General, we have already investigated clearly; the enemy's location is right behind us." The reconnaissance soldier ran into the great tent and spoke.

"Behind us?" Gu Yi furrowed his brows slightly, feeling puzzled: "Shouldn't the enemy be in front?"

"General, we don't know about this." The reconnaissance soldier shook his head, then spoke: "Regardless of whether the enemy is in front or behind, we only need to wait for the rabbit to hit the tree stump."

"Wait for the rabbit to hit the tree stump, do you mean to say that the enemy is right behind us?" Gu Yi asked in surprise.

"Not bad, General." The reconnaissance soldier nodded: "The enemy is right behind us; as long as we remain still, the enemy's main force will enter our encirclement."

"Haha..." Gu Yi laughed aloud: "Good! Very good, we will wait for the rabbit to hit the tree stump and see what the enemy will do!"

Gu Yi ordered the soldiers to keep the entire army on alert, guard strictly, and wait for the enemy's main force to enter the encirclement.

In the process of waiting, Gu Yi let the soldiers rest, while he sat on a chair, quietly thinking about something.

Time passed quietly, and in the blink of an eye, another half a year had passed.

Half a year's time was enough for the great army to do many things, for example, preparing the grain and fodder.

"General, the enemy's grain and fodder are prepared."

"Good, pass the order, let the soldiers of each camp prepare for battle." Gu Yi spoke.

"Yes, General!"

Just at this moment, the reconnaissance soldier ran into the great tent hurriedly; he spoke: "General, the enemy has unusual movements!"

Gu Yi heard this, his expression changed slightly. He stood up immediately, then walked toward the outside, his heart secretly saying: "Is the enemy's main force finally coming?"

The enemy's main force was not far from the great army.

Gu Yi saw the enemy's main force, and his expression immediately turned cold. ===== CHAPTER 1145 =====
