Chapter Ninety-Three: Variables
These stragglers danced their weapons excitedly, seemingly unconcerned about the next situation, leaving only the opposing army looking at each other.
"Are they really in ambush?"
"Not really." The leader shook his head, pointed to the mountains and trees not far away, and said: "The grass and trees are just soldiers, if there is really an ambush, these stragglers would not be as nervous as they were at the beginning, and now they are so excited, don't be tricked." ”
The others nodded, still retreating, instead staring at the stragglers in front of them.
The skirmishers' eyes lit up, and they frequently looked back into the depths of the grass and trees.
Since someone echoed just now, it means that Lord Watson has arranged a way back for them early, so there is no need to worry too much.
What everyone didn't know was that the savior Xia Ji and the others in their eyes had already retreated quickly when the movement occurred.
"The praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch follows." Xia Ji said while flashing: "I'm afraid someone has been the yellow finch behind us early." ”
Mi Fang nodded, and sure enough, it was.
The situation of the stragglers was odd.
But at this point, it is impossible to delve into it.
The few of them quickly shuttled through the withered yellow withered grass, and it was not until a few steps away that Xia Ji stopped when the sound of Suo Suo was heard in the distance.
She gestured slightly, bowed her head to signal for someone, and then half-squatted down and grabbed the half-tall withered grass to look at the sound.
More than 14 people glanced at each other a few times, and also learned from Xia Ji to squat down, looking behind them from time to time.
"Why is there no one after only two calls?"
"Shall we go out and have a look?" The withered grass shook slightly, and there was a sound of inquiry.
"But haven't they come here yet?"
"That's it, my lord said that he would bury all the 10,000 horses of the Chu State here."
Someone's admiring voice came, and I couldn't stop rejoicing.
"Heh, it's only a thousand people, what big deal can only be achieved by only a dozen stragglers?" Some people questioned it and didn't care.
"Don't worry, let them come in."
……
Xia Ji looked back at the surroundings, and after seeing the entire terrain clearly, his brows furrowed slightly, could this really be an ambush place?
She gestured, pointing ahead and then behind her.
Mi Fang understood, motioned for Fourteen and Eleven to follow him, and then quickly turned to the other side to hide.
Fourteen glanced at Shi'er, with worry in his eyes, but he still hid behind Mi's side.
During the whole process of no communication, Shi'er couldn't stop panicking in her heart, she looked at Xia Ji frequently, Xia Ji nodded, held Shi'er's hand, and signaled her to feel at ease.
Niu Kelian's heart was also pounding, is this going to make a big move?
But who are the 'adults' in those mouths?
Niu Kelian couldn't figure it out, and followed Xia Ji and Shi'er to a little farther on the left, quietly waiting for the upcoming show.
In the rear, there is a lot of people.
"General!"
The stragglers waited for a moment, and found that there was no response except for the roar, and they became a little anxious, looking at the enemy army in their eyes, and they could not help but feel a little apprehensive in their hearts.
The breeze blew, and the stinging sound whined with wheezing and stinging.
"Hmph, bluff!"
"Kill them!"
The leader pointed at the stragglers, and his eyes were full of anger.
"I ...... We ......" The stragglers panicked and were at a loss.
"What are you doing in a daze, run!"
A shout woke up the stragglers, and when they saw the man jumping up, they hurriedly rushed to the grass, panicked, but fled in the direction they had set.
"Chase!" Hulala's large army rushed into the decaying grass, already carried away by the sight before them.
"General! My lord! ”
"Help us!"
The panicked stragglers finally broke out completely, letting the dry and cracked branches scratch their faces, and their eyes were full of thinking about survival.
"Insufficient success, more than failure!" An angry voice came from the depths, and Xia Ji looked sideways slightly.
She pursed her lips, it seemed that the stragglers didn't know that their so-called 'adults' had already regarded them as outcasts, otherwise they wouldn't have ignored them like this.
And she appeared here without warning, bumping into this layout, presumably just by chance, she is just a 'variable' in this game.
However, seeing that the 10,000 soldiers and horses of the Chu State were swallowed up, and the war between the two countries broke out, Xia Ji could not be indifferent.
Xia Jigao raised his hand, waved it at the side of the mi, then glanced at Niu Kelian, and whispered: "Brother Niu, you protect your child." ”
As soon as Niu Kelian nodded, he saw Xia Ji turn around and burrow into the dense grass again, leaving only a little swaying branches and leaves, indicating that the person had already arrived at the other end.
He could only stay quietly where he was, waiting for his moment.
Xia Ji had just walked halfway, and he met the side of the rendezvous, and the two had tacit understanding in their eyes, nodded slightly, and then separated and went to the highest part of the hill.
Soon, Xia Ji and Mi Fang each occupied a hill and looked down.
In the blink of an eye, the situation has changed.
The fleeing stragglers were panicked as if they were trapped beasts driven away, dying and struggling, looking back at the enemy from time to time.
The Chu army broke through the decaying grass that was blocked, like a broken bamboo and approached the stragglers.
Xia Ji saw it clearly, as long as there was a distance, it would not be far from the trap in the depths.
She looked at the side of Mi, beckoned from afar, and then let out a whistling sound, "Rush!" ”
The side echoed with her, but on the other side, far away.
The two of them shouted like this, which had already alarmed the Chu army, and coupled with the shaking branches of Xia Ji's sword, they seemed to be more and more nervous approaching.
This time, it's really a soldier.
Right now, all three are moving!
The stragglers were happy, and someone really answered.
The ambusher was stunned, the Chu army hadn't reached the trap yet, why did he make a move?
Chu Jun was startled, stopped in unison, and hurriedly looked at the shaking place.
The swaying branches on both sides, the shouts were clearly human, and there were a lot of them.
Chu Jun suddenly sobered up, the atmosphere was suddenly quiet, and then looked around.
The leader hurriedly grabbed the reins of the whistling horse's head, "Retreat!" ”
There were too many people in a hurry, and the surging and chaotic aura poured in instantly, and the sound of wind and grass seemed to be about to break through the hearts of the Chu army.
At this time, although the time has been wrong, and the ambusher has been broken, he can only bite the bullet.
They stood in clusters, fanning their flags.
Xia Ji fixed her eyes and saw that it was the banner of Chen Guo, she frowned, how could this Chen Guo and Chu State fight together?
The Chu soldiers were also stunned when they saw the flag, wasn't this straggler Zheng Guo's?
Why is it that it is Chen Guo's people who are supporting?
Could it be that the two countries have joined forces?
In an instant, a wisp of thought came back to everyone's hearts.
Guiding people in the direction of what seems to be 'truth'.
Only Xia Ji frowned tightly, and he couldn't unravel it for a long time.
There's always been a key figure in this, and there's always been a role at play.
Is that the 'adult'?
The game that had already been stepped down, every move was very meticulous, and the Chu army was attracted, but it was obviously Zheng Guo's commotion that brought Chen Guo's ambush.
The intricacies of the Three Kingdoms seem to be drawn by those who are interested in the war.
This kind of technique reminded her of Watson hidden in the crowd inexplicably.
Amazing and glamorous, but the flowers are under the moon, and the people are sophisticated but ordinary and abnormal.
Before she could figure it out, Chen Guo's banner had already rushed over with the crowd, and the big battle was imminent.
She waited silently, the crowd moving very slowly, only a few meters away, and seemed to be standing still.
It is not ruled out that the reason for her high and distant view is not ruled out, but the crowd seems to be angry, but the distance has not shortened.
Are they waiting for the Chu army to come?
Pitfall......
Xia Ji suddenly opened his eyes, only to see the Chu army like an angry arrow turning towards the banner of the Chen State.
