Ren Xiaosu held up his spotting scope and watched silently for a long time. Although killing a few hundred barbarians was not a big deal on the battlefield, this should be the equivalent of killing an officer, right?
An officer who could lead thousands of people must have a high rank in the expeditionary army.
Moreover, the TNT had exploded successfully, so he had successfully saved Young Marshal's face.
In fact, what Ren Xiaosu did not know was that the Fang General he had killed was a confidant of the general of the expeditionary army, and he had also killed a "Mad Bear" in the expeditionary army.
The name "Mad Bear" was a respectful title given to those warriors in the expeditionary army who had unlocked their sense of smell. Mad Bears were very important during daily hunts, and there weren't many such talents in the entire expeditionary army.
Xun Yeyu asked from the side, "Young Marshal, did the explosives explode successfully?"
"Didn't you see the black smoke over there? It went very smoothly," Ren Xiaosu said in high spirits.
Xun Yeyu asked curiously, "Then Young Marshal, what were you doing with that ability just now …"
"Hahahahaha." Ren Xiaosu slapped the back of Xun Yeyu's head. "You talk too much!"
Xun Yeyu said in an aggrieved tone, "Young Marshal, let's hurry up and leave. It'll be too late if we don't leave now. I can sense a new expeditionary army unit within my range of perception. Before this, they were just patrolling around and did not approach us, but now they're chasing us at full speed."
"Let's hurry up and leave." Ren Xiaosu said, "Xun Yeyu, lead the way!"
At this moment, one of the barbarians in the expeditionary army unit that had been bombed by TNT was using the communication device they had seized to quickly contact the rear. Ren Xiaosu's actions had completely infuriated the entire expeditionary army.
It was already unbearable for the barbarians to attack four supply convoys in one day. After all, the frontline was about to enter a state of food shortage. Now, they had even killed the general's confidant.
The expeditionary army's purpose of besieging Zuoyun Mount was to protect the logistical lifeline. If there was always such a unit in the rear that could accurately intercept all of their supply convoys, how could they fight this war?
In just two hours, the expeditionary army actually had four armies of five thousand people led by their respective generals quickly enter the wilderness.
It was as if Ren Xiaosu and the others had poked a hornet's nest, completely infuriating the barbarians.
When Xun Yeyu sensed this scene, he was so shocked that he almost cried. He thought to himself that his Young Marshal was really a troublemaker. How could he have alarmed so many barbarians with just a casual move?!
This was even more ferocious than when they were at Stronghold 146 in the Northwest!
Xun Yeyu followed Ren Xiaosu and Big Bluff and said with a sobbing tone, "Young Marshal, why don't we go back to the Northwest directly?"
"Why are you going back to the Northwest?" Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. "With your radar ability, which barbarian can catch up to us? Hmm? Let me ask you, are there any stragglers nearby who look like they're part of the barbarians' supply transport team? "
Xun Yeyu was startled. "Young Marshal, why are you still thinking about robbing the barbarians at a time like this?"
"This is called catching them by surprise, you know?" Ren Xiaosu said, "After we leave Mt. Zuoyun this time, I'll have to beat them to the point where they'll have to send their main forces to escort the supplies every time."
Didn't P5092 say there were too many expeditionary army troops surrounding them outside Zuoyun Mount? In that case, they should be forced to become the supply transport team. Without a main force to escort the supplies, the supplies could not be transported to them. In that case, wouldn't there be fewer troops at Zuoyun Mount?
In fact, Ren Xiaosu had single-handedly affected the situation at Zuoyun Mount.
At this moment, P5092 was nervously deploying a battle plan at the defensive position when Wang Yun's brothers who were scattered in the mountains suddenly reported back. "Outside Zuoyun Mount, two groups of 5,000 troops have left Zuoyun Mount!"
When they heard this, everyone in the command tent was stunned. Wang Yun wondered, "Where are the barbarians going? Why did they suddenly leave? Don't tell me they're not going to attack Zuoyun Mount anymore? "
"We'll definitely have to fight them," P5092 said.
"Then why did they leave?" Wang Yun asked.
P5092 thought for a moment and said, "Do y 'all think they might have gone to capture Young Marshal?"
Wang Yun gasped. "Tens of thousands of people went to capture Young Marshal? Surely that can't be. "
"But I can't think of any other explanation." P5092 pondered and said, "I'm just curious as to what Young Marshal has done to the expeditionary army …."
Only Zero knew the situation the best. She had detected the unusual movements of the expeditionary army through the satellites early on and informed the Wang Clan about the movements of these troops.
Under the surveillance of the satellites, the expeditionary army had deployed two of their main forces from Zuoyun Mount and two more from Mt. Daniu. These four forces were frantically heading north in the direction of Ren Xiaosu and the others.
However, Ren Xiaosu and the others were moving much faster than the expeditionary army. At this moment, Ren Xiaosu and the others found another supply convoy in the north and easily defeated them.
This was like a slap to the expeditionary army's face. Despite being pursued by so many troops, another group was still defeated. This was a disgrace to the expeditionary army.
Moreover, this enemy was so arrogant!
At this moment, Wang Run received a call from Mt. Daniu's command center. The Wang Clan shared this information with the 6th Combat Brigade.
When everyone received the exact news, they did not know what expression to make.
Wang Yun was silent for a long time. "… Young Marshal is awesome."
…
At night, Ren Xiaosu led Big Bluff and Xun Yeyu to a leeward spot to rest for a while.
In this wilderness, they could not even light a campfire due to their pursuers. As such, the spring night was still a little chilly.
Xun Yeyu was snoring as he leaned against a hillside. The fair fatty had been exhausted for the past two days. His physical fitness was far inferior to Ren Xiaosu's and the Great Hoodwinker's.
However, he suddenly woke up while he was napping.
Ren Xiaosu glanced at him. "What's wrong?"
"The four expeditionary armies have stopped." Xun Yeyu hurriedly said, "However, there's a group of 80 people rapidly approaching us. I can sense that these people's flames are very powerful. They're experts among the barbarians!"
Big Bluff looked at Ren Xiaosu. "The barbarians must have discovered that we don't have many people left. They've also realized that the mobility of a large army is too poor and that it'll be difficult for them to catch up with us. Therefore, they've gathered those experts together and are pursuing us quickly."
Ren Xiaosu looked at the dark wilderness and felt a little unsatisfied. "Then let's retreat. Both of you, follow me back to Zuoyun Mount."
The barbarians had sent 80 experts to chase after them and seemed to have a way to accurately locate them. This made Ren Xiaosu understand that it was time to stop.
At this moment, Big Bluff also felt a little unsatisfied. "Are we leaving just like that?"
"Let's go." Ren Xiaosu smiled. "I prepared some gifts for them at Zuoyun Mount."
