Chapter 1006: Hitching a Ride!
“They’re coming!”
The Fickle Army who had been lying in wait for an entire day finally ushered in the light of hope when they were just about to leave. Bai Xiaofei watched intently in that direction, and pleasant surprise lit up his face.
Now that’s a huge gift package!
It was a group of at least 5,000 Sacks soldiers escorting a bulky motorcade, with the number of coachmen alone amounting to 3,000. From the depth of the wheel marks, the things in the carriages were quite heavy.
In a place and a time like this, what such a motorcade carried was an obvious answer: Food!
“Inform everyone, do not attack for real. Just hold them off for a while, then pretend to be defeated and retreat!” Bai Xiaofei made a quick plan before the motorcade entered their ambush range.
Nothing was more suitable as a stepping stone than this food escort motorcade being delivered right to their doorstep.
As the motorcade slowly approached, a command from Bai Xiaofei marked the beginning of an excellent performance.
All the non-fatal traps were activated, which didn’t even tickle the Sacks, but the emergence of the enemy soldiers caught them completely off guard. After all, who could have thought that they would be ambushed right on their own turf?
Therefore, despite the Fickle Army holding back, the first wave of attacks still took down several hundred people.
“Raise the barricades and shoot arrows to interfere with their flow! Expose our numbers to attract them into attacking back!” Bai Xiaofei issued a series of orders, and the Fickle Army immediately acted on them.
After another two hundred people fell, the Sacks motorcade finally returned to their senses. From the density of arrows, they judged that the other party didn’t have many people.
“It’s impossible that a big army can sneak into this place, so it must be some small force from the vicinity! Don’t panic, fight back!” shouted the leader of the motorcade.
The Sacks soldiers immediately observed the situation and came to the same conclusion. One by one, they stormed toward the direction of the ambush.
“Prepare to retreat, but don’t move too fast, let them see clearly how many people we have. Kite them for a while!”
Bai Xiaofei’s order was quickly passed down, and the Fickle Army immediately changed directions. Before long, the Sacks soldiers quickly approached while shouting slogans, only to be welcomed by the traps and more arrows.
However, this didn’t discourage the Sacks soldiers. On the contrary, they were thrilled to see that the other party only had a hundred people! This is not an ambush, this is a damned provocation!
The crazed Sacks soldiers immediately charged fearlessly, but their responses were still the same traps and the unhurried counterattacks of the Fickle Army. Since a part of the traps were made by Tan Xin, so the kill zone took nearly a thousand lives before letting the Sacks soldiers pass.
However, what came next was a crueler scene – the Fickle Army ran extremely fast!!!
Compared with the fighting and traps just now, the Fickle Army, when fleeing wholeheartedly, was like having wings on their legs. After giving chase for less than one kilometer, all the Sacks could see was a row of blurry figures!
It couldn’t be helped. After all, running was the first lesson of the Fickle Army…
Being dragged around for several hours, the furious motorcade began to count casualties and clean up the battlefield.
And then, they became even more furious.
The opponent who only had more than a hundred people had been able to take down more than a thousand of their soldiers. Many carriages were also damaged, and the most disgusting thing was that the road was destroyed…
Helpless, the leader had to order a break on the spot while their laborers fixed the road.
“It’s impossible to arrive at the fortress tonight. Tell everyone to be on their guard. If those guys dare to come back again, we must kill them!” In the makeshift camp, the leader was shaking with anger at the mention of the enemy.
Meanwhile, Bai Xiaofei’s group, who hadn’t run far at all, had set up barbecue sets and started cooking.
“Boss, we clearly could wipe them out. Why did we suddenly stop?” Zhuang Shuo asked curiously as he chomped on his meat.
“Our ultimate goal is to enter the fortress. My original plan was to stop some people and interrogate the reason why they are entering the fortress, and then we can disguise as them, but I realized this method is not reliable. If the gate guards are just a little smart, we will be at great risk. However, if we don’t have to face the guards directly, it will be much simpler, and that food motorcade meets the requirement,” Bai Xiaofei chortled evilly.
“We’re going to blend in?” said Zhuang Shuo after thinking for a moment.
Hearing this, Bai Xiaofei, Tan Xin, and Ye Qingtong were dumbstruck. They swallowed a mouthful of saliva and looked at Zhuang Shuo in astonishment.
“Ehhh… Boss, even if… I got it wrong, you don’t have to look at me like that.” Zhuang Shuo panicked under their stares.
