Chapter 288: Breakout
We'll see what happens tomorrow. But it's not optimistic anyway. There's a good chance you'll be here.
Thinking like this, Duan Bailan couldn't sleep even more, staring at the stars and moon outside, her eyes were blank, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
……
The sun's dazzling rays shine through the gaps in the leaves, casting a soft glow over the earth.
In such an artistic conception, what Duan Bailan and they had to do was to break out of the encirclement and lose their lives.
Everyone is already ready to go, and they have said before that the Northern Army only has souls who died in battle, and there are no people who escape! We must do our best to break through this time.
said that it was half of the people in the team, but in fact, Liu Nianru and Chen Qin's side were almost two-thirds of the people here, Liu Nianru had doubts, but Duan Bailan explained that they were going to attack in the first wave, so they naturally needed more manpower, and they would be caught off guard to achieve their goal.
Liu Nianru had no choice but to reluctantly accept this statement, but for some reason, since she got up this morning, she had a faint feeling of uneasiness in her heart. As we approached departure, the feeling seemed to intensify a little more.
"Now that we're all ready, let's go." Duan Bailan raised her arms and shouted, Duan Bailan's confidence was in her calm and calm eyes.
Now, the army of the northern expedition is divided into two routes, one team led by Liu Nianru and Chen Qin, which is the task of the first wave of raids, and before setting off, he was told several times not to fall in love with the battle, and the first task is to break out of the encirclement.
The other team, led by Duan Bailan, broke through behind Liu Nianru and them.
So, the two teams of people and horses went down the mountain in a hurry, and when they came, they were panicked, which can be regarded as fleeing from the wilderness, but at this moment there is an invisible momentum. It's all because two days ago, they ambushed the barbarian Xu soldiers. Otherwise, morale may still be low at the moment.
When they were about to reach the exit, Liu Nianru stopped the team and told everyone to take a breath. Then he picked a few sneak attack experts and asked them to deal with the guards with him first.
……
"Poof--" was the sound of a dagger cutting through the flesh and blood spurting out, and the man didn't even have time to react, just felt a chill on his neck, and he had already lost his life.
Several people looked at each other and lowered the body to the ground. Well, the caretaker was dealt with so quietly.
Liu Nianru brought the team down, and the corpses of several barbarian soldiers were still on the side, and they could see their stunned expressions before they died, and their round eyes showed that they were not blind, but no one cared about these corpses at the moment.
After tidying up the team, Liu Nianru walked forward with the people, and there were still a few barbarian soldiers guarding the place in front, but these people were all solved by Liu Nianru one by one, and they couldn't make a sound.
When approaching the camp of the barbarian army, Liu Nianru gave an order and asked everyone to disperse and go to find cover, trying to ensure that they would not be discovered by the barbarian soldiers.
In this way, it can have a surprise effect, or in other words, it can make them successfully break through.
Only when the enemy is not prepared
, is a good time to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop. It was certainly impossible for Xin Delie to have imagined that all the soldiers he had sent to guard the exit had been killed.
At this moment, the atmosphere of the barbarian camp was relaxed, and everyone was in groups of three or five, talking and laughing, without the slightest awareness of the impending crisis.
Looking at the appearance of the barbarian soldiers, the Northern Expeditionary Army present probably sneered in their hearts.
They approached their destination quietly, with such gentle movements that no one noticed them at all.
Liu Nianru didn't find any trace of Duan Bailan's team, and they may not have arrived yet.
When everyone was almost in place, Liu Nianru released a signal that he could attack, and then took the lead in rushing into the enemy camp, and with a shining dagger, he harvested two or three lives in succession before anyone reacted.
"Enemy attack!" The barbarian camp instantly sounded countless sirens.
The barbarian soldiers were in disarray, and because they were in the camp, each of them was more relaxed, neither wearing armor nor holding weapons. Now I am in a hurry to wear armor, and it will naturally take a lot of time to get weapons. And these times can be used by the Northern Army, and for a time, I don't know how many barbarian soldiers died under the sword of the Northern Army.
Although Duan Bailan's instructions were to raid as soon as possible, and also to break through the enemy's defense line and flee as soon as possible, for Liu Nianru, if he could take this opportunity to harvest a little more of the enemy's life, then why not?
Moreover, the soldiers in the Northern Expeditionary Army also had a sense of resentment, and they finally had the opportunity to vent it at this moment, which was so easy to say and leave. At this time, why don't you take the opportunity to kill a few more barbarian soldiers, what are you waiting for?
Moreover, the main reason why their own team came to sneak attack was that they didn't know, so they could have this kind of benefit and effect, and once they successfully escaped, needless to say, the barbarian soldiers would definitely be fully armed to raise their vigilance. It will be much more difficult for Duan Bailan and his party in the back to break through, and they are not here to add to the chaos, at this time, of course, they can take one more life, so they will take one more life.
After about a quarter of an hour, the barbarian soldiers finally reacted, and Xin Delie and General Zhang, who had been resting in the tent, also walked out fully armed.
Liu Nianru saw that the situation was not good, and if she stayed any longer, she would probably be at risk of being blocked here.
Liu Nianru narrowed her eyes, and immediately ordered to sprint, and the Northern Army was ordered, no longer in love with war, and began to concentrate on breaking through.
……
Liu Nianru and his party fled along the trail, and the barbarian soldiers were hesitant behind them, not knowing whether to chase or not.
"General Zhang, you take some people to chase them, if you catch them, don't let any of them go." Xin Delie had a cold face, this kind of enemy fleeing under his nose greatly detracted from his prestige.
What about the prince of a country, he can't even stop gambling personally, what else can he do?
The reason why General Zhang was only allowed to take some people to chase after him was because Xin Delie had just seen Liu Nianru and Chen Qin leading the team, and he had not seen any trace of Duan Bailan, so this person must still be in the mountains and forests and did not come out.
If you send all the soldiers to pursue Liu Nian
Ru and his party, that is undoubtedly equivalent to letting Duan Bailan go in vain, Xin Delie will not allow this to happen. So he only asked General Zhang to take some people to chase after him.
As for himself, he was waiting in the camp for Duan Bailan and those who had not yet come out.
Liu Nianru found out that there were chasing soldiers behind her early on, but she didn't panic, but instead hooked the corners of her lips, as if she had some plan.
