Chapter 650: Thunder but no rain

late at night.

After a day's march, most of the ghost soldiers were exhausted.

With their large-scale withdrawal, as long as the weather is not bad, it is basically impossible to camp every night.

It was autumn at this time, and many soldiers lay down to rest under a thin layer of hay.

Moreover, for fear of a night attack by the enemy, all the soldiers were wearing armor.

Not just tonight either, most of them have been since the retreat.

Although everyone understood the necessity of doing this, doing so for a long time put these soldiers under a lot of psychological pressure.

Worrying about being attacked by the enemy at night every day, and having to keep your armor with you at all times, this feeling is really uncomfortable.

There were many fires around the place where they camped.

These fires provided a ray of light at night and a sense of security.

Groups of armored soldiers patrolled the camping area to guard against enemy night attacks.

"How long do you think we have before we can withdraw?"

"Who knows? I hope it can be withdrawn soon!"

"Oh, so is the king. Daqian didn't provoke us, so he insisted on starting a war with Daqian! I heard that our other army was defeated again. If the enemy army from the other group came to kill us, we might not be able to withdraw... "

"yes……"

"The Prime Minister still had the foresight to lead people to join the enemy army long ago..."

"Hush! Don't say this nonsense, watch your head!"

"..."

Several soldiers lying on the hay were not sleepy and chatting worriedly.

They don't know what their fate will be.

But there is no doubt that they don't want to die, they all want to withdraw completely.

However, the current situation is really not optimistic for them.

Everyone is worried about whether they can go back alive. Although some people also have thoughts of surrendering to the enemy, they dare not say it out and can only pray in their hearts.

While several people were discussing in low voices, the thunderous sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded in their ears.

"Rumble..."

The sound of thousands of galloping horses resounded throughout the world, instantly alerting Oni Fang's soldiers.

"kill!"

"Kill!"

Immediately afterwards, a shocking shout of killing suddenly sounded.

The Beifu Army is coming!

In an instant, the ghost soldiers grabbed the weapons placed beside them, quickly got up, and held the weapons in their hands tightly, as if this could give them a sense of security.

Just when many people were ready to fight to the death, the enemy's shouts of killing suddenly disappeared again, and only the sound of rolling horse hooves gradually faded away.

Listening to the sound of horse hooves getting further and further away, the ghost soldiers couldn't help but look at each other.

The enemy...retreated?

Only thunder but no rain?

As the ghost warriors listened carefully, the sound of rolling horse hooves completely faded away.

Best of all, disappear completely.

What a retreat!

Such a result gave many people a feeling of surviving a disaster.

Many people are even ready to fight to the death.

Unexpectedly, the enemy troops retreated so quickly.

"call……"

Many soldiers exhaled a long breath, and their nervous minds relaxed.

They were relieved.

But Chi Yan was a little disappointed.

Chi Yan hoped that the enemy would launch a night attack.

They were prepared for an enemy night attack.

If the enemy attacks at night, if they hold on to the spot, they might still have hope of defeating the enemy.

This is probably their best chance of winning right now.

Unfortunately, the enemy did not launch a night attack.

I don’t know whether the enemy did it deliberately, or whether they discovered in time that they were well prepared and gave up the night attack.

But there is no doubt that the enemy troops really retreated.

"Order all soldiers to continue to be vigilant and beware of enemy troops coming again!"

Chi Yan gave an order and continued to discuss countermeasures with the generals.

Even though they have been discussing it for a long time, they still have not come to a conclusion.

Some people advocate agreeing to Yun Zheng's conditions, while others still oppose it.

Neither side can convince anyone.

An hour later.

"Rumble..."

The sound of rolling horse hooves sounded again.

The ghost warriors were once again ready to defend.

However, this time, just like before, it was still thunder and no rain.

The voices of the Beifu army shouting to fight and kill were loud, but they did not attack at all.

When they learned that the enemy had retreated again, Chiyan and the generals cursed in anger.

For the first time, it was possible to suspect that the enemy had discovered that they were well prepared and had retreated.

But the enemy troops came again, and it was clear that they were doing it on purpose.

"The enemy clearly wants to make us uneasy!"

"They just want to use this trick to lower our morale!"

"Perhaps, the enemy wants to tire us out and launch a surprise attack on us!"

"Anyway, the enemy must have no good intentions. We must be more careful..."

For a time, all the generals gritted their teeth and expressed their opinions.

The enemy's hands are so damn dirty!

If their morale hadn't been low, if they hadn't been too scrupulous, how could they have allowed the enemy to be so unbridled?

If they were really tortured by the enemy all night, those soldiers would march even slower tomorrow.

Many people felt that Yun Zheng just wanted to use this disgusting method to force them to agree to the conditions.

However, some people believe that Yun Zheng is very likely to launch a sudden attack while their soldiers are exhausted from being tortured.

Mu Liju clenched his fists tightly and said with a fierce look on his face: "We can't let the enemy continue to suffer like this! We have to find a way to teach the enemy a lesson!"

"Find a way? What way can you think of?" A general immediately retorted, "If we send people to ambush these harassing enemy troops, we might play into Yunzheng's plan!"

"Yes!" Another general agreed.

It is an indisputable fact that Yunzheng is full of tricks.

Every step they take now may be part of Yun Zheng's calculations.

If they suffer heavy losses, they may not even have a chance to surrender!

They must be careful now to avoid falling into Yunzheng's trap.

"Then what do you think we should do?"

Mu Liju was angry, "Are we just going to watch the enemy harassing us like this?"

Faced with Mu Liju's angry questioning, the generals fell silent.

How to do?

How do they know what to do?

Although they all knew the disadvantages of allowing the enemy to do this, they were helpless.

"Let the soldiers of all ministries be more vigilant first!"

Chi Yan rubbed his sore temples and said tiredly: "The enemy is harassing us, and they are also tormenting their own soldiers! If we are not easy, they will not be easy either!"

Listening to Chi Yan's words, the generals nodded.

Now, that's all I can think about.

However, they still hope that Chiyan will come up with an idea as soon as possible.

Should I accept Yun Zheng's conditions?

We can't keep putting it off like this.

The enemy can afford to drag it back, but they can't!

Almost an hour later, the Beifu Army made another noise.

With the experience of the first two times, everyone was much calmer this time.

As expected, the Beifu army was thundering but not raining again.

Faced with this disgusting move by the Beifu Army, many people were so angry that they cursed in their hearts.

However, they did not notice that with every march of the Beifu Army, Wang Qi and his men continued to approach the place where they camped.

The noise made by the Beifu Army helped them cover up the noise they made during the operation.

After the Beifu Army harassed them for the third time, Wang Qi personally led five hundred Beifu Army soldiers wearing ghost armor to lurk under the cover of night, quietly waiting for the right opportunity...
