"I didn't think that your plan would be seen through by me." Mu Lingluo let out a laugh that was cold and threatening.
"Shouldn't you guys be left behind? Why are you here so early to ambush us? " Bai Yuhao was naturally surprised that the Woodgod Kingdom would ambush them so accurately. It was obvious that he had seen through their route, but this Woodgod Kingdom should have been left behind a long time ago.
"Do you think your little cleverness can escape me?" Mu Lingluo stared coldly at Bai Yuhao, but in reality, if it wasn't for Black-Robed Spirit Controller who leaked the information to her, she really would have been run away by Bai Yuhao. In the end, she decided to give it a go. Therefore, she split the troops into two groups and chased after Bai Yuhao's Crimson Dragon Army all the way here, because she had calculated that if the Crimson Dragon Army wanted to avoid entering into the Woodgod Kingdom defense line, this would be the only choice for them to change their direction.
"I didn't expect that this game of cat and mouse would end early. However, even if you managed to catch me, the outcome of the Woodgod Kingdom is already lost. " Even though he was caught red-handed by Mu Lingluo, he was still calm. He had already expected such a danger to come his way, so he was not surprised. However, he was still slightly curious as to how Mu Lingluo had seen through the Crimson Dragon Army's plan.
"Same here. If we get rid of you, without your Crimson Dragon Army, sooner or later, you will be toyed with by me. Last time, you were lucky enough to escape in the deserted village, so don't even think of escaping this time!" Mu Lingluo seemed to have made up her mind again to get rid of Bai Yuhao. This time, there seemed to be no leeway left. No matter who tried to stop her, it would be useless.
"Commander Bai, it seems like we can only break through the encirclement by force." Ji Yulin, who was beside Bai Yuhao, immediately said.
At the same time, the Member of the Elite Group s of the four Celestial Master Stage s immediately readied themselves.
"No, the reason why Mu Lingluo is lying in ambush here is probably because our intelligence has been leaked. Therefore, she purposely split her troops and chased after us, all the way until we made an ambush ahead. In other words, Mu Lingluo's current military strength is only around ten thousand, but in order to prevent us from breaking through, she should have heavily guarded the front." Bai Yuhao shook his head. He had definitely analyzed Mu Lingluo's strategy and disposition of the troops. Thus, he immediately focused his gaze and said, "All troops, listen up. Turn around and break out of the encirclement!"
With Bai Yuhao's order, the Crimson Dragon Army immediately changed directions.
"Captain Ji, I'll have to trouble you, Commander Ma, and the four Member of the Elite Group to lead the troops and lead the way. I will lead and defend the rear." Bai Yuhao immediately gave the order.
Ji Yulin and Ma Lan immediately led their four Member of the Elite Group s. After quickly changing directions, they arrived at the front of the Crimson Dragon Army and started to lead their troops to break out of the encirclement.
At this time, Mu Lingluo also gave the order to launch an attack, attacking the Scarlet Dragon Army from the front and back, while Bai Yuhao immediately commanded the several thousand troops behind to form a defensive line, blocking the Woodgod Kingdom's attack.
Immediately afterwards, the two armies began to fight in the gorge, and the bloody and brutal battle began.
In the Crimson Dragon Army, there was Spirit Controller, this Expert of the Mad God Stage, charging in the front, and in the rear, Bai Yuhao and Ji Wushuang were joining hands to defend the enemy, so the attack was like a hot knife through butter, preventing the enemy from getting in the way.
And just as Bai Yuhao had expected, the Woodgod Kingdom that had sealed off the rear of the Crimson Dragon Army was relatively weak, so, after turning around, the Crimson Dragon Army held the advantage in strength. However, because of the narrow road's narrow terrain, it was not suitable to fight.
Of course, Woodgod Kingdom were not for naught either. Under Mu Lingluo's lead, they pursued with all their might, trying to delay the Crimson Dragon Army's movement as much as possible.
This battle also meant that Bai Yuhao and Mu Lingluo were fighting each other to see who had the better leadership skills.
After what seemed like a very long time of six hours, the Scarlet Dragon Army finally broke out of the encirclement under the command of Bai Yuhao. However, the losses of the troops already exceeded five thousand, and although the losses of the Woodgod Kingdom troops weren't too far off, the Woodgod Kingdom s still had the possibility of appearing once ten thousand troops at any time.
When it was about to get dark, Bai Yuhao and the Scarlet Dragon Army finally managed to pull away from the pursuers of Woodgod Kingdom, but was still unable to shake them off completely.
"Commander Bai, there's a hidden route nearby. If we take this route, perhaps we might be able to shake off the Woodgod Kingdom and give chase." At this moment, Liu Yi, who was researching the map, immediately called out to Bai Yuhao.
"Is that so?" Bai Yuhao immediately turned around to Liu Yi, and saw Liu Yi draw a line on the map.
"Adviser Liu, are you sure that this route can throw us off our Woodgod Kingdom?" Bai Yuhao confirmed, because every step he made now was related to thousands of lives. In this day's time, he had seen with his own eyes more than 5000 lives isolated from the rest of the world, as the commander of the army, how could he not be moved. Even though he knew that this was inevitable, he still wanted to protect the remaining forces as much as possible.
"It should be fine." Liu Yi nodded.
"However, if you go straight to the concealed route, it will be very easy to detect you. You must leave behind some troops and be responsible for diverting the enemy's attention in order to be safe. In my opinion, you should be responsible for attracting Commander Bai and his men and cover them as you leave from the concealed route …" Ji Yulin introduced himself.
"No way, Mu Lingluo won't fall for it that easily. Moreover, her target is me, only I can lure her away." Bai Yuhao shook his head decisively.
"You are the commander of the Crimson Dragon Army, how can you be the bait? "Furthermore, attracting the attention of the enemy forces is a suicidal mission …" Ma Lan couldn't help but shout out. Of course, she couldn't just sit by and watch Bai Yuhao take the risk.
"Commander Ma is right. Commander Bai, let me handle this." Ji Yulin agreed.
"I am the commander. I will do as I say." Bai Yuhao said confidently. Then, he stood up and walked towards the Red Dragon Army soldiers that were resting on the ground.
"In order to ensure the safety of the entire army, I need five hundred men to lead away the enemy forces with me. However, this mission is very dangerous, and it is even possible that we won't be able to return. So, I won't force you. Bai Yuhao looked at the soldiers with burning eyes. Actually, he did not want to risk the lives of these soldiers anymore, but someone had to carry out this mission.
At this moment, a commotion broke out among the soldiers. Everyone was looking at each other …
