It was obvious that Monterey did not choose an ordinary retreat route, and he also knew that if he retreated according to an ordinary route, he would face the situation of being chased and beaten all the way, which was too dangerous. Ye Junwen's modern weapons gave Monterey a lot of pressure before, he thought about it for a long time and didn't think about how to deal with these new weapons, he didn't have to think about counterattacking, his current goal was to bring his troops back safely.

For this reason, Monterey devised this route of retreat, and did not retreat directly in the direction of the border to the east, because it would be easy to catch up, and he chose to divide a small force and let them go along the east, but make some traces of the retreat of the large army along the way, luring the enemy to pursue to the east, while their main force retreated along the river to the south.

The main reason for retreating along the river is to facilitate the elimination of traces of retreat, and the effect is indeed good, at least Ye Junwen's reconnaissance team was indeed deceived by them, and they really thought that the enemy was retreating to the east, but they didn't expect that Ye Junwen now has other sources of intelligence, the Hidden Ones Organization.

Yes, Ye Junwen also contacted Lester to help this time, and he said before that the eyes and ears of the Hidden Ones are all over the continent, not only in their St. Willan Empire, but also in other countries There are also their subordinates, so there are members of the Hidden Ones lurking in Monterey's troops. Although he deceived Ye Junwen's reconnaissance troops with superb means, they couldn't expect the traitors from the inside, so in the end, the movement of their troops still fell into Ye Junwen's hands.

Now Ye Junwen is also discovering more and more that the Hidden Ones are really very useful, I have to say that the creators of the Hidden Ones are still very far-sighted, and of course Ye Junwen also wants to accept them even more.

After knowing the other party's movements, Ye Junwen was of course not in a hurry. This is the territory of the Saint Weilan Empire, and they are more familiar with the terrain, and after finding a few people to ask, Ye Junwen immediately knew the situation in this area, and also set a location to intercept the other party.

Soon, the time came to the evening of the next day, Monterey's troops had been running for a day and a night, at this time all the soldiers were in a state of sleepiness, seeing this situation, Monterey thought about it a little, or decided to let the soldiers rest a little, they were indeed a little unable to hold on.

At the moment when Monterey ordered to rest, many soldiers fell down directly, and there was no need for anything like a temporary camp at this time, they just rested here for a while, and they were about to continue to set off, and the soldiers didn't care about anything at this time, some of them fell asleep on the spot, they were too tired.

However, among these people, there was a general who was still alert at this time. When he heard Monterey's order, he immediately lay down, but soon, he got up again, and after a little froze, he suddenly began to dig into the ground.

"Jom, what are you doing?" Another general next to him walked over and asked.

"Torches." The general named Jom said a little anxiously, seeing the other party's expression, the general here also quickly found a torch from the side, and asked while lighting it, "What's wrong?" What happened? “

At this time, Jom had just dug out some mud from the ground, pinched it in his hand, and then sniffed it slightly with his nose, and suddenly his face changed: "Not good! ”

"What's wrong?" The general next to him was even more confused, could he see anything else from the mud?

"Let's go, go to Marshal Monterey at once." Jom stood up and spoke.

"Huh? What the hell is going on? ”

"There's no time to explain, go find Marshal Monterey!" Jom hurriedly got up and went to find Monterey. And at this time, Monterey had just sat down, and he was still thinking about the previous fiasco, and before he had time to sum up, he saw a person hurrying in front of him.

"Jom? What's up? Monterey asked, getting up.

"Marshal, if the big thing is not good, we may have fallen for it." Jom said anxiously, "The enemy may have known our retreat route and is now preparing to deal with us. ”

"What?" Monterey was stunned, "What do you mean?" How do you know? ”

"Marshal, when I just lay down, I noticed that the ground here was very cold." Jom said.

"Indeed......" Monterey nodded, he had just sat for a while, and he also felt that the ground was cold here, "but this ......"

"I just dug down a bit and found that the soil down here is very wet, and I can dig a little bit down to get the mud that is watery, and I suspect that our current location is also part of the riverbed." Jom said, "Of course, if it's a dry season, it's okay, but the problem is that it shouldn't be a dry season, I haven't heard of a drought on the side of the Saint-Willan Empire these days, on the contrary, the rain should still be relatively abundant, and the riverbed should not dry up in this case." ”

"What?" Monterey also understood, this situation is really wrong, "Could it be ......?"

"Yes, Marshal, I suspect that the enemy has set up a dam upstream and is preparing for a water attack." Jom said.

"What...... This...... Did the enemy discover our plans for retreat? Monterey was very surprised, although he thought that the plan might be exposed, but he didn't expect it to be so easy, but he didn't think there was anything wrong with Jom's suspicions, and indeed he felt a little wrong today, but he couldn't say it, now that he thinks about it, it's really a problem with the river, it is true that the Saint-Willan Empire has a lot of rain these days, and the water level of the Sutwin River next to it shouldn't be so low, Jom's suspicions should be true.

"Quick, inform all the soldiers, get out of here immediately." Monterey panicked slightly, then quickly ordered. His order was also conveyed immediately, and the soldiers were very strange, didn't they just say to rest? Why is it that all of a sudden the army is marching again, is it that the enemy is catching up? Although it was strange, after all, it was a matter of life and death, so they also got up quickly.

However, just as all the soldiers were about to evacuate, suddenly a loud noise came, and everyone unconsciously looked in the direction from which the sound came, relying on the moonlight, they seemed to faintly see a white thing rushing towards them.

"Water!" A soldier who was close shouted loudly, but the next second he was directly submerged by the rushing river, and then the soldiers realized that a huge white wave was rushing towards them, and the huge water flow was like a white giant snake, directly engulfing the soldiers standing by the river. In the face of this natural disaster-level situation, the soldiers had no power to resist at all, and the soldiers who were swept into the water were directly swallowed by the river and disappeared in front of everyone's eyes in an instant.

"Run to the high ground!" Monterey was not swept up in the river for the first time, and when he saw this, he immediately pointed to a nearby high ground and shouted at all the soldiers. The soldiers were already in a state of complete confusion at this time, and when they heard someone shouting to run to the high ground, they also instinctively rushed in the direction from which the sound came.

Seeing that the troops were about to escape, at this moment, several loud noises suddenly came from the high ground in front of Monterey. Several round objects with tails were shot into the air, and then slowly fell, and the shining light emitted by this thing directly dispelled the surrounding darkness, illuminating the surroundings as bright as day.

"Guys, I've been waiting for you for a long time." Suddenly there was a man's voice in front of him, and before he could understand what was going on, suddenly the sound of "Tutu" came again, this voice was already familiar to Monterey, he had only heard this terrifying sound in the battlefield a day ago, it was the sound of the enemy's new weapons, and in front of it was the enemy's troops.

Sure enough, as the gunshots rang out in front, the soldiers in front quickly fell down with screams, and at this time Monterey's troops had been cornered, with the fierce river behind them, and the enemy ambush in front, the soldiers were in chaos, and the situation was completely uncontrollable.

"Marshal, run! Yes! A general next to him grabbed Monterey, who was already sluggish, but before he could finish speaking, suddenly a bullet flew and pierced the opponent's head, splashing Monterey's face with blood, but this made him sober up a little.

Looking at the surrounding situation, Monterey probably knew that he couldn't help it, this army had reached this point of chaos, and no matter how much he shouted, he couldn't control it.

The front is completely a dead end, and the person who wants to go up will die as many as he wants, and the other party is ready, and it is impossible to rush up. Seeing this, Monterey gritted his teeth and said to the person next to him, "Go back and jump into the river!" ”

"What? Marshal, jumping into the river now is a dead end. The soldier next to him looked at the rushing river and said.

"Going forward is even more a dead end, go!" As he spoke, Monterey jumped off a nearby cliff, and in an instant his figure was swallowed up by the river. Of course, Monterey's action did not attract the attention of Ye Junwen and his troops, after all, the situation at the scene was very chaotic, and they couldn't see clearly where the other party's commander was, and the troops continued to harvest the soldiers who wanted to rush to the high ground, and how many people died when they came up, and there was no way to break through this kind of machine gun position.

The killing lasted until the end of the day, and by dawn, there were basically no more enemies still alive, and the flow of the river slowed down, and the whole river was full of enemy corpses, and the river turned blood red, and the banks of the river were stacked with enemy corpses, and the scene was extremely bloody.
