On a high point, Lin Yi quietly watched this scene and couldn't help but chuckle, "Tsk tsk, Tuoba Yu has learned his lesson this time. He's trying to lure us into an open area to make it easier for his cavalry to attack!"
Based on the previous attitude of the Northern Region Barbarians, it can be summed up in one word.
Dry!
Just do it!
This is their usual tactic: using cavalry to charge and destroy the enemy's formation. This is a common method in open field encounters.
But now he has actually made a strategic retreat, which is clearly an admission of defeat.
Martial Divine Minor Titled King is truly a man of flexibility and adaptability.
"Haha, this guy suffered a great loss last time, so he dares not underestimate our lord." Wang Yue couldn't help but laugh. He naturally knew why Tuoba Yu was so cautious; it was because he had learned his lesson from his mistakes.
The previous battle in Dayu County was enough to show them the firepower of Xiliang; if they tried to withstand it head-on, they would definitely not be able to.
Tuoba Yu wasn't stupid; naturally, he wouldn't charge through the rain of arrows, as that would be tantamount to courting death.
Chen Dao, standing to the side, couldn't help but remind them, "The other side now has over 100,000 people. To get them to give up these supplies, we'll have to inflict significant damage on them!"
With such a large force, the enemy will definitely not be willing to give up what they have already gained.
The Northern Region Barbarians are no pushovers; they will not lack the courage to fight. This battle must be fought until they are utterly defeated.
Lin Yi looked in Tuoba Yu's direction and laughed, "I worked so hard to take Ningchuan Commandery, only to get an empty shell. How can that be acceptable! Tuoba Yu has to keep some of that money; at least half of it should be compensation for lost work time."
Forehead!
Upon hearing this, Wang Yue couldn't help but twitch his lips. Taking Ningchuan Commandery this time was basically a fluke; the Crown Prince was exaggerating a bit.
"What, Wang Yue, do you have a problem with that?"
"Of course not. The young master is so worried about saving the people of Ningchuan Commandery that he can't even eat. I thought he would need medical treatment fees!" Wang Yue said seriously.
Ha ha!
Lin Yi couldn't help but burst into laughter; this guy's become quite the smooth talker too.
Chen Dao pulled a map from his robes and explained, "My lord, the people from the Net ) have scouted the area. Beyond this hill lies a vast wilderness. Tuoba Yu may very well be planning to engage in battle there!"
The map was simple, but that didn't stop him from understanding Tuoba Yu's intentions. He clearly wanted to use the cavalry's advantage to divide the army there.
kindness!
Lin Yi nodded. In that case, it was indeed a good place for cavalry to fight. However, cavalry was not invincible, and they were overthinking things.
But there's no such thing as invincible cavalry; it's always a matter of survival of the fittest.
He smiled and said, "Haha, they do want to get through, but unfortunately they can't. If they want to leave, they'll have to leave me their supplies; otherwise, they're not going anywhere."
"Make life difficult for?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Dao was stunned. What was going on? Why couldn't he get through?
Lin Yi nodded and smiled, "Let's go, I'll show you what one of the Four Great Inventions of Ancient China is all about!" After saying that, he rode off and caught up with the main group.
The Four Great Inventions?
Chen Dao was completely bewildered. This involved a blind spot in his knowledge, and it was a big problem that he felt he didn't understand at all.
Looking at Wang Yue, who was full of anticipation, he couldn't help but feel melancholy. His lord was really teasing him.
The outskirts of Youning Commandery!
The battle was still raging, and Tuoba Yu and his group were fighting and retreating, covering the evacuation of the supply trucks.
However, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer, which made Tuoba Yu and the others feel rather unhappy. People were dying in battle every moment, so how could they be in a good mood?
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the resource transport truck ahead, wishing they could dismount and push it themselves.
It was because of this thing that they couldn't escape Lin Yi's pursuit; if it weren't for it, they would have been gone long ago.
Fortunately, the transport vehicle had already traveled some distance, so there was still a buffer zone; otherwise, it would probably still be slowly moving behind.
"Brothers, don't worry. The enemy and our forces are evenly matched. Once we enter the wasteland ahead, we'll have a significant advantage," Tuoba Qingsong reassured the group.
Although he had considered abandoning the supplies, he quickly dismissed the idea.
If an army of over 100,000 can't even protect the supplies, I'll be ridiculed by the All Under Heaven, which is absolutely unacceptable.
Yelü Dashan sighed, frowning as he said, "I just don't understand. Even if Lin Yi loves money, he wouldn't abandon Ningchuan Commandery, would he?"
With so many troops mobilized, do you think Lin Yi and his few companions can control Ningchuan Commandery?
This is somewhat hard to understand!
" Xiao Shan, you Heavenly Eagle Guard should at least give us some feedback! What's wrong with Lin Yi?" Tuoba Qingsong also sensed something was amiss and couldn't help but shout.
Is Lin Yi really going to abandon the vast Ningchuan Commandery?
So what the hell was this guy scheming about all that time?
Hearing everyone's words, Xiao Shan smiled wryly and explained, " Lin Yi isn't anything special, but he's very cautious and would never easily go to dangerous places. If he does go out, he'll definitely be surrounded by a large number of Net (Net of Heaven) members protecting him."
Everyone's lips twitched. This guy was clearly terrified of death, practically terrified to the extreme.
"Good heavens, this guy is a complete coward!" Tuoba Qingsong said maliciously.
Yelü Dashan, however, was quite impressed and said with a smile, "There's an old saying in Great Ning: 'A wise man does not stand under a crumbling wall.' Lin Yi, the Heir of Northern Liang, is feared by many forces. If he hadn't been cautious enough, he would probably be dead already."
He knew roughly about the situation in Northern Liang, a place where he was disliked by everyone. The Northern Barbarians hated him to the core, and the Great Ning Dynasty itself was also very wary of Northern Liang.
As a result, almost everyone wanted to kill this Heir of Northern Liang, which explains Lin Yi's personality.
"However, there's another point: when this person makes a move, he wipes everything out, whether it's the forces in the Northern Liang Royal City or the entire Xiliang Commandery. This guy is ruthless; he's basically killed everyone who poses a threat!" Xiao Shan hesitated for a moment, then sighed.
Forehead!
These words silenced everyone instantly, and their hearts filled with worry.
Yes, it's unusual for such a cautious and meticulous person to take such a big risk to pursue him without absolute certainty.
Unless Lin Yi was prepared in advance!
Tuoba Yu's pupils contracted; he instinctively sensed a hint of danger and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, don't be nervous. No matter how powerful Lin Yi is, he couldn't have planned this far."
snort!
Even if you are a master strategist, I, Tuoba Yu, will not repeat the same mistake and fall twice in the same place.
