Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 423: Attack from both sides, Ying Bu leads his troops in a surprise attack!

At this moment, on the other side of Heilongkou, in the area covered by the thick rain curtain, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan was standing in the rear army tent. He stared at the heavy rain outside the tent quietly, and a little worry surged in his heart.

The cold rain hit the tent, making a crackling sound, as if it was also knocking on the heartstrings of the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan. He felt the cold air in the air and frowned slightly. This sudden heavy rain undoubtedly brought uncertainty to the two sides in the battle. And for them who were here, the situation did not seem optimistic.

The Southern Border Army has been marching and fighting in this land for many years, and they are already familiar with the climate and environment here, just like their own backyard. In contrast, their side seems to be somewhat unaccustomed to the climate and terrain. In this way, the bad weather and terrain conditions may become a great help to the Southern Border Army, thus putting their side in a passive situation.

Although they had an absolute advantage in military strength, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's keen intuition told him that things might not be that simple. He closed his eyes and quickly reviewed all the intelligence he had collected along the way in his mind, like playing a movie.

Suddenly, he took a deep breath and muttered to himself involuntarily: "Hiss... Could it be that Gao Yao is hiding an ambush?" Once this thought came to his mind, it grew wildly like weeds in his mind.

After many battles with Gao Yao, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan knew that the other party was no ordinary person. Especially when he learned that Gao Yao, who was once just an ordinary chef, could have the military force to compete with Xiang Yu in just a few years, he looked at him with new eyes. At this moment, Yi Xiaochuan no longer dared to underestimate the enemy in front of him, because he clearly realized that Gao Yao must have hidden some unknown special means. Otherwise, all this is really hard to explain.

The biggest problem with this battle is that it is going too smoothly. It seems that everything is going according to the plan drawn up by the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan. On the surface, it seems that it is just because Gao Yao is in a coma, but the truth is far from that simple.

In fact, Yi Xiaochuan had already seen through it. Although Gao Yao temporarily lost consciousness, he was not relying on his own strength. Behind him were Zhang Liang, Han Xin and other powerful generals. Did Yi Xiaochuan really not worry about burning his boats and going all out? After all, judging from the comparison of the forces of both sides, his side had an overwhelming absolute advantage, almost forming a disparity of four to one. Under such circumstances, unless all the soldiers of the Southern Border Army were as brave and good at fighting as the heavenly soldiers and generals, failure was doomed to be inevitable. This was determined by the actual difference in the strength of the troops, and there was no way to make up for it.

If there are still variables or unexpected situations that may occur at this moment, then there is only one possibility - that is, Gao Yao has other reinforcements hiding in the dark and have not yet appeared. In addition, consider the unique terrain factor of Heilongkou. In other words, the most unexpected change in the current situation may be that the entire chess game was carefully planned by Gao Yao, and its ultimate goal is to annihilate the imperial army in one fell swoop. Even the location of Heilongkou is not a coincidence, but a strategic point deliberately selected after careful consideration, rather than just arriving here by chance.

"Someone come!" Following the shout, a soldier quickly ran over, knelt on one knee, clasped his fists and saluted, "General!"

The mysterious Yi Xiaochuan looked solemn and ordered with sharp eyes: "Send all the scouts out immediately to thoroughly investigate the surrounding situation for this general. Be sure to be careful and don't miss any clues, not even a fly!"

The soldier did not dare to delay and quickly responded with a "Yes!" Then he turned around and left to carry out the order.

At this moment, the sky was overcast, lightning and thunder were roaring, and heavy rain was pouring down, but the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan completely ignored the impact of these bad weather conditions. The strong sense of uneasiness in his heart surged up like a tide, making him feel uneasy. If the situation was not clarified and the hidden dangers were not eliminated as soon as possible, the consequences would be disastrous and might even lead to a complete loss. Therefore, he decisively ordered people to strengthen patrols and alerts around the camp.

Just when the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan had arranged everything, a burst of rapid horse hoof sounds suddenly came from far away. Then, a messenger, who was soaking wet and in a mess, galloped in the heavy rain. When he arrived at the door of the tent, he jumped off his horse and rushed into the tent without wiping the rain off his face. He knelt on one knee and reported loudly to the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan: "Report... General, a large number of cavalrymen are approaching about two miles behind our army. The exact number of cavalrymen has not yet been determined!"

Hearing this, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan, who was already nervous, suddenly widened his eyes and looked shocked. Then his face turned into an angry expression.

"Assholes! We didn't notice the enemy until they were less than two miles away. These scouts are simply slacking off on military strategy. They deserve to die!"

At this time, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan roared in anger. The newcomers were cavalry troops, and the distance was so close, less than two miles away. Even if the scouts found the enemy and immediately rushed back to the camp to report to him, how could the enemy stay there stupidly? I'm afraid that in the moment they were talking, the enemy would have rushed over like a whirlwind. Thinking of this, Yi Xiaochuan's anger burned more and more fiercely. How could he not be angry?

In fact, it was not that these scouts deliberately neglected military affairs. The place they were in was an unfamiliar environment that they had never set foot in before. In addition, it was raining heavily at this moment, and the sky and the earth were hazy and chaotic. Many of the effective reconnaissance methods were no longer effective at this moment. Even though the scouts had extraordinary vision and hearing, under such harsh conditions, when they finally found the enemy's traces, the distance between the two sides was already very close. And if they wanted to return to pass on the message, it would take a lot of precious time.

"The entire army must immediately enter a state of combat readiness and act quickly!" Seeing that the situation was urgent and could not afford any delay, the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan reached out and grabbed the spear beside him without hesitation, and at the same time decisively issued an order for the entire army to prepare for war.

Following his order, all the soldiers responded in unison: "Yes!"

“Dengdeng, dengdeng, dengdeng…”

As the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan put on his armor and walked out of the tent, he could clearly feel the ground beginning to shake slightly. This made the mysterious Yi Xiaochuan's expression change again, and he said in his heart, here it comes!
