Chapter 852: Retreat

In fact, if the bandits had been trying to open their way in this direction, Yiyun would be confident that they would continue to suffer small losses. Because there are too few people available around him, and his strength is weak, he can only deal with it in a small fight.

The results accumulated by small fights are also incredible.

But now Yiyun is worried that the bandits have suddenly figured it out, and quietly sent a large group of men and horses to make a detour from the direction of the county seat, if this is the case, what should he do?

Do you want to inform the county magistrate? Okay, the dead horse is a live horse doctor. The current advantage is still on the bandits' side, and the county commander who is an abacus master must still want to remain neutral, because if the bandits' brigade passes by, even the county commander himself will probably retreat.

However, Yiyun hoped that he could at least inform himself in advance, hoping that this hope was not much.

Yiyun thought about it again, so he picked someone from the village and arranged for him to go to the county seat to deliver a letter to Master Wu, asking him to inquire about the news at any time, so that he could prepare in advance.

In short, it is relatively safe to walk on two legs.

Three days later, the rain was pouring down.

And the bandits' operation to open the way began again.

For their persistent and ruined behavior, of course, Yiyun can't ask for it!

This time, they dispatched nearly 100 people at once, of course, led by Xie Datie; before leaving, the big boss especially emphasized that he was under pressure to support the seven masters, and he was only allowed to succeed and not fail!

Just those people in Huangcun, if they don't succeed this time, they are really faceless, so it's better to wipe their necks halfway!

Although Xie Datie was a seven-leader and his shape was stronger than that of a person, he still had to lower his stature, discussed with the big boss who was in charge of directing the specific operation, divided the team into three groups, and marched in the direction of Daheishan in a zigzag shape.

The purpose of this is to support each other by the horns. Avoid being too scattered or too centralized, in short, don't give Yiyun any chance.

Although the weather was bad, it was also good for hiding the traces of the procession.

What made Xie Datie happy was that although he encountered traps from time to time along the way, he did not cause major casualties because of the crowd, and the speed at which the three teams advanced was very steady, so they never encountered resistance, and they marched forward for nearly twenty miles, almost half of the distance.

Because the rain was so heavy that they were tired enough, the team stopped to rest. Xie Datie asked everyone to eat something and replenish their bodies.

From the bandit's point of view, a mountain suddenly rose two or three hundred meters in front of him to block the way forward, and Xie Datie judged that if Yiyun wanted to make a move, he should have set up an ambush on the top of the mountain to block it. So he told everyone to take a break in order to prepare for the battle that might start next.

The original zigzag team continued to follow everyone's position, with two teams outflanking the mountain left and right along the terrain, and the middle one planning to cross the mountain later.

In this way, the distance between the three teams gradually widens.

Yiyun and his apprentices, who had been waiting here for a long time, finally waited for an opportunity.

Originally, there was a small river meandering in front of the mountain, but Yiyun and others had stopped the flowing water in advance and accumulated it behind the woodland on the left side of the mountain. Coupled with the heavy rain for several days, it has become a small lake.

Since there was very little water in the river, the bandit squad on the right naturally followed the river around the mountain.

And Yiyun, they happened to be in trouble at this time!

The method was very simple, using water attack, and after a long period of preparation, it took advantage of Yoshiyun's familiarity with the terrain and the bandits' unfamiliarity.

The bandits to the left are making a detour, the center is waiting, and the right is already turning in one direction in the river.

Yiyun sent the signal. The man who had previously arranged for the woodland on the left opened the sluice gate to release the water.

The water is very strong, and in a very short time, it roars down with the momentum of bursting the embankment!

In this way, the left and center teams were separated by the sudden flash flood on the opposite bank, and for a time they could not get through guò quickly, while the teams on the right suffered. Rushed by the rushing flood, those who reacted quickly hurriedly ran desperately to the banks on both sides, and those who reacted slowly were directly washed away by the river.

The same thing. The bandits who fled to the right bank were separated by the river. Those who fled to the left bank were shot and chased by the men who were lying in ambush on the hillside, and were killed and wounded in a short time.

In a very short period of time, this attack caused the bandits to lose about twenty people at once!

This is too embarrassing! Xie Datie and the big boss were all furious.

It was precisely because the water was moving so fast that it did not take long to stop them from moving forward to support, and in a moment's time, they had already waded through the water without their lives, and when they saw that Yiyun's men had already managed to shrink towards the mountain, they stared at the dozen or so people who were chasing after them.

Now I can't wait to catch them all and break them to pieces!

But how easy is Yiyun and the others to deal with?

Obviously watching them flee in front of them, they still lure and seduce. It is precisely because the bandits are coming all the way, and there are endless means to rectify them in front of them: there are pits, man-made landslides, and wooden nail arrays......

The bandits chased after them for a while, then they were discouraged and gave up.

Now it seems that this rain is obviously not good for the enemy and good for the enemy.

Xie Datie discussed with the big boss for a while, and decided not to pay attention to the disturbances of those people, not to entangle with them, and to gather people together for the primary purpose of hurrying.

In this way, Yiyun's manpower was too small, and he didn't dare to get too close to risk his life, so he kept his guard and carefully monitored the bandit team all the way to the direction of the Great Black Mountain.

There is no way to do this, the bandits will eventually be able to open the way, and there are too few people on their side who can fight!

Yiyun finally arranged for Goudan to rush back to Huangcun immediately with everyone, because if nothing else, there would be a battle next.

Yiyun himself quietly went up to the Great Black Mountain, and then he had to deal with the bandits alone.

......

It's getting dark.

Xie Datie and his party, about 80 people, rolled in the muddy water, and it took a day to finally come to the foot of the big black mountain.

Now I am tired and hungry, and the main problem is that all the original houses on the mountain have been burned down, and there is no place to live.

Several leaders discussed it and solicited Xie Datie's opinion, and everyone unanimously agreed, just go straight to Huangcun! First, they wanted to use another battle to vent the anger accumulated along the way and give the people of Huangcun a dismount, and second, they hoped that they could fully replenish Huangcun and withdraw tomorrow.

Of course, entering Huangcun is risky. However, Xie Datie thought that he was already familiar with the tunnels of Huangcun, as long as he entered through the entrance, he would catch turtles in an urn, and he was not afraid that Yiyun would not admit defeat. He understands Yiyun's character, so using villagers to threaten him is undoubtedly the most direct and effective way!(To be continued......
