The next night, not only were gongs and drums beaten, but along with the sounds of killing, Lin Yi and the other archers began to shoot arrows into the camp.
"There are plenty of arrows. Use them as targets and use up all the arrows you have on you!”
The three of them fired arrows from different directions, so they didn't need to deal much damage.
It was enough to kill or injure a few of the enemy soldiers and cause panic.
After another night of torment, General Dian couldn't take it anymore!
He had not slept for two days and two nights in a row. Coupled with the fact that he had diarrhea, he was extremely angry!
He had wanted to search the mountain during the day, but An Tianqing had always been cautious.
Firstly, he needed someone to protect him. What if this was a trap set up by the enemy?
Secondly, after drinking the croton water, the soldiers had pooped as much as they ate. Their legs were sore and weak, and their eyes were sunken. In addition, their mental state was not good.
How could he search the mountain in such a state?
An Tianqing began to suspect that there was something wrong with the well again. He sent someone to use an iron hook to go down to the bottom of the well and finally pulled out the culprit.
Looking at the three bags of croton that were pulled out by the iron hook, An Tianqing was so angry that he cut the bags into two.
"Who bullied me?"
"Opposite the Han Army, if you have the guts to fight me to the death, why are you so timid?”
An Tianqing cursed at the mountain ridge and shouted at the soldiers.
However, Lin Yi gave the order to just sleep peacefully and not care about anything else.
After receiving no response, An Tianqing sent out scouts to scout the mountains, wanting to find Lin Yi and the others.
However, Lin Yi and the others were sleeping soundly in a hidden mountain stream, while the enemy was wasting their time.
An Tianqing paced back and forth in the tent, not understanding what the Han army was up to.
"There shouldn't be many Han soldiers, and they've already discovered my tracks. This place is no longer safe.”
An Tianqing analyzed again,
"There's laxatives in the water. Could it be that the Han army suddenly discovered the location of my garrison and has already gone back to seek help? They didn't have many people, so they didn't dare to attack. While waiting for reinforcements, they used the strategy of exhausting their troops to confuse my mind and weaken my combat strength. Then, when reinforcements arrived, they killed my 400 people in one go?”
An Tianqing gasped when he thought of this.
At the same time, in the military camp, Qin Hu knelt on the ground. The commandant was furious!
"You just ran away under my nose and secretly did something. Why did you run away again when you just came back? Why is he so bold?"
Qin Hu said innocently,"
"Sir, you should ask Lin Yi about this. I really don't know why he's so bold.”
"You don't know how bold he is, yet you dare to stamp his document and tell him to enter and leave the camp without hindrance?”
Qin Hu felt even more aggrieved when he heard that.
"Sir, you were the one who said that all the matters of the three camps, big or small, have to be discussed with Lin Yi. You asked me to name this centurion and call him in charge. He wrote the document himself and sent himself out of the camp.”
"Isn't this... you supporting his back?”
"I…"
The commandant was speechless for a moment and said angrily,
"Then I'll punish you for not reporting the crime, okay? You clearly knew that he led his troops to act without permission, but as the centurion of the 3rd Battalion, you deliberately hid the truth from the higher-ups!”
"This…"
Qin Hu evaded the accusation, but he could not escape the crime of not reporting the truth no matter how eloquent he was.
In a moment of desperation, Qin Hu took out the letter written by Lin Yi and handed it to the commandant.
There were only six words on the letter:
"This matter is settled, Guan Yuntong."
Qin Hu did not expect the letter left behind by Lin Yi to be so powerful!
"I'll remember your and Lin Yi's crimes first. When this kid comes back, I'll deal with you properly!”
Although the commandant didn't know what Lin Yi was up to, and Qin Hu didn't say it explicitly, based on his observation and understanding of Lin Yi, he was afraid that this kid was thinking of doing something big again.
From the last time they robbed the food, to Lin Yi capturing the prisoners and horses without any injuries, they all showed Lin Yi's amazing strategy.
The commandant thought that Lin Yi would not fight a battle he was not confident in. He should wait for him to return first.
As for Lin Yi.
Every day, the four of them took turns on sentry duty to monitor every move of An Tianqing's military camp.
Lin Yi realized that An Tianqing was sending out cavalrymen every two or three days, while he was hiding in Wolf Head Mountain and not doing anything.
It was obvious that this guy had sent out contact soldiers to gather the defeated army and prepare to regroup and take back Green Capital.
An Tianqing, who only had 400 people left, was only a toothless tiger. However, when he gathered the remnants of his troops again, he would become a ferocious tiger. At that time, he would probably be even more difficult to deal with.
Unfortunately, Lin Yi did not have military power in his hands.
If he was a lieutenant, he would only need 800 to 1,000 soldiers to surround An Tianqing and set up a pocket formation nearby.
The remaining soldiers that An Tianqing had gathered would fight wave after wave. They would directly surround the point and kill all the enemy soldiers. In the end, capturing An Tianqing would be a piece of cake.
Unfortunately, Lin Yi was only a captain. At most, there were less than a hundred people in the 3rd Battalion under his command.
What Lin Yi had guessed was An Tianqing's intention.
He originally wanted to hide Wolf Head Mountain and gather the remnants to counterattack, but he just happened to encounter Lin Yi's attack and harassment.
If they were to move the barracks now, their plan to gather the remaining troops would fail completely.
However, if he didn't move and stayed on Wolf Head Mountain, An Tianqing was worried that the Han army's reinforcements would appear and make him a dumpling.
After all, he was a toothless tiger now. He only had 400 people around him at most. It was a little too much for him.
Which was more important, his life or gathering the remnants?
In the end, An Tianqing chose to save his life first. The strategists, civil officials, and elite soldiers in the command center were all the backbone of the army.
They could continue to recruit soldiers, but without these talents, they would not be able to lead no matter how many soldiers they had!
"Pass down my order, the three armies will follow me to break out of the encirclement and retreat before the Yan Han army arrives.”
An Tianqing finally fell for Lin Yi's trick!
When they came out of Wolf Head Mountain, they had to pass through a narrow valley entrance. Lin Yi's goal from the beginning to the end was to lure An Tianqing out.
The others didn't care. This narrow valley entrance was the best ambush spot he had prepared!
It would also be An Tianqing's death!
