~7 min read 1,273 words

Watching the enemy getting closer and closer, Gu Yi hurriedly ordered, "Everyone, pick up your weapons and kill the enemy!"

As he said this, he charged out first.

"Kill~"

After Gu Yi charged out, the others naturally followed as well. They had no reservations and charged directly toward the enemy's camp.

"Hmph! Do you really think we would let you break through our defensive line so easily?"

At this moment, the sneering voice of the enemy General came from behind.

They had long guessed that Gu Yi would definitely come to attack their camp with his troops, so their defensive line had been raised significantly; they had even made preparations for battle, so it was simply not very likely for Gu Yi to break through the defensive line.

Moreover, at this time, their main force was already in the front and would arrive to reinforce them at any moment.

Hearing the words of this enemy General, Gu Yi and his men did not stop their footsteps; instead, they accelerated and charged over.

"Hahaha, do you think you are very powerful? Then let's see you try!"

"Shoot arrows at them!"

At this moment, Gu Yi and the others finally discovered the situation at the enemy camp, but they were unable to dodge in time because the enemy had already begun their attack, and a sky-covering rain of arrows instantly surrounded them.

"Damn it!" Gu Yi cursed a few times. He knew that his current situation was very dangerous, but he was unable to dodge this rain of arrows.

Just at this moment, countless shield-bearing soldiers all charged over and blocked the enemy's rain of arrows.

"Eh? You are actually able to use a shield formation as well?" Seeing this, the enemy called out in surprise.

After hearing his words, Gu Yi did not pay him any mind; instead, he continued to brandish the weapon in his hand and attacked the enemy on the opposite side.

Although Gu Yi and the others were able to dodge the enemy's rain of arrows, the enemy's archers were simply too strong, and the enemy's rain of arrows was simply too dense, giving them the feeling that every step was difficult.

Watching these enemies, Strategist Pang Tong felt very angry. He gritted his teeth, brandished the long spear in his hand, and fought bravely.

Screams rose one after another; soldiers of the enemy were constantly being cut down to the ground, fresh blood dyed the entire land red, and Gu Yi and the others also paid a not-insignificant price.

They had already lost more than ten soldiers.

The enemy army, however, still had four or five hundred men left. The strength of these four or five hundred men was absolutely incomparable, especially the archers, who were even more terrifying.

At this moment, Strategist Pang Tong saw the soldiers around him; their faces all revealed expressions of exhaustion, clearly having expended too much energy.

At this moment, he hurriedly shouted loudly, "Brothers, pull yourselves together! This time, we are not only going to capture their camp, but also kill their leader!"

"Understood!"

Hearing Strategist Pang Tong's words, the soldiers nodded one after another and then fought bravely.

Seeing this, the enemy army was greatly shocked and hurriedly turned their spearheads to shoot arrows at Gu Yi and the others.

The arrows flew over and tore the armor on Gu Yi's body into fragments, but he was not injured.

Gu Yi was not injured, but Strategist Pang Tong, Zhao Yun, and the others were.

After Strategist Pang Tong, Zhao Yun, and the others were injured, they retreated with staggering figures, while Gu Yi and the others took the opportunity to charge toward the enemy's camp.

Gu Yi charged at the very front, while Strategist Pang Tong and Zhao Yun acted as the rearguard; the two of them could be considered to have fought for their lives.

But the strength of the enemy camp was simply too formidable, and they were not stupid; naturally, they would choose to defend, not letting Gu Yi and the others easily approach the enemy camp.

At this moment, Gu Yi and the others were also unable to approach the enemy's camp and could only temporarily retreat to a distance.

"These bastards!"

"They actually set traps in the back!"

After seeing this situation, Gu Yi and the others cursed through gritted teeth.

When they charged over just now, they had not discovered at all that the enemy had set traps. If it weren't for Strategist Pang Tong and Zhao Yun blocking the arrows for them in the back, they likely would have already been shot to death.

At this moment, Strategist Pang Tong walked over and asked, "Brother Yi, what should we do?"

"No! If this continues, I fear we won't be able to hold on," Gu Yi said after pondering for a moment. "You take the men and retreat first; I will cover the rear!"

"How can that be!" After hearing Gu Yi's words, Strategist Pang Tong immediately shook his head.

Gu Yi heard Strategist Pang Tong's words, was silent for a moment, and then said, "It's fine. You take the men and leave; I will try my best to stall for time. When the reinforcements arrive, perhaps we will still have hope of escaping."

Strategist Pang Tong heard Gu Yi's words, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "That won't work. After I take the men and leave, what will you do if the enemy pursues?"

"Rest assured, I have my own arrangements," Gu Yi said indifferently.

After hearing Gu Yi's words, Strategist Pang Tong thought for a moment and said, "Alright, then I will trust you."

"However... Brother Yi, can we win this time?" Strategist Pang Tong hesitated for a moment before asking again.

After hearing Strategist Pang Tong's words, Gu Yi smiled and said, "Our hope of victory this time is very high, so you need not worry; you just need to retreat."

After hearing Gu Yi's words, Strategist Pang Tong thought about it—it was true, their strength was simply too weak, and they were bound to lose this time; it was better to retreat early.

"Alright, then take care!"

"Rest assured, it's fine."

"En, let's go." After Strategist Pang Tong finished speaking, he led the numerous soldiers and retreated rapidly toward the rear.

Seeing this, Gu Yi hurriedly shouted loudly, "Run quickly!"

"Alright, take care of yourself!"

"We know!"

Strategist Pang Tong led his men and retreated rapidly to the rear.

At this moment, seeing Strategist Pang Tong and the others retreat, the enemy did not send soldiers to block them.

Seeing Strategist Pang Tong and the others retreat, Gu Yi and the others finally let out a sigh of relief, but they did not relax their vigilance because of this.

Because they knew that these enemies would absolutely not let it go.

Very quickly, the enemy again sent out twenty thousand men and surrounded them.

Gu Yi looked at the enemy's formation and then shouted, "Everyone, pay attention!"

"The enemy's numbers are too high; we must find a way to wipe them all out!"

As soon as his voice fell, he charged toward the enemy first.

His swordsmanship was extremely refined, and his speed was incredibly fast; very quickly, he beheaded three soldiers. However, the enemy's archers were not to be trifled with; their arrows flew toward them like raindrops, and the quantity was very high.

The soldiers beside Gu Yi were very quickly shot to death, eight or nine out of ten.

Seeing this, a look of ruthlessness flashed in the depths of Gu Yi's eyes. ===== CHAPTER 1236 =====
