After traveling through time, I thrived in ancient times

Chapter 286 Stalemate

Back at the military camp, all the soldiers had made preparations and were ready to set off at any time. Yu Tingwan picked up a group of people and took the group that was in the mountain cave with him, and they rushed to the garrison of the Da Sheng army and the army led by Song Shixu.

No one said a word. This action was very serious. They all knew what they would face this time!

There is a mountain range between the border and the interior of Dasheng, but across this mountain range is a large flat land, which is true for both the border and the interior of Dasheng.

Therefore, before the army led by Prince Rui arrived, Song Shixu had already led his men over the mountains and arrived at the vast area ahead.

Anyway, according to the Song Dynasty's time sequence, there were few large mountains on the border. As long as he occupied this mountain range in advance and forced Prince Rui's army to stand on flat land, he would have occupied an advantageous terrain.

At least if the worst happens, they still have a place to hide, while Prince Rui and his men will be completely exposed.

This was a really good idea, and Song Shixu was very glad that they had arrived earlier and that the princess had given them a secret weapon.

Because not long after he arrived, he saw a black spot rushing towards him not far away.

The black spot expanded rapidly and turned into a black line at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This situation was frightening, so Song Shixu, who had just arrived here, decisively gave orders to have people dig a pit ten feet ahead and ambush in advance.

However, Prince Rui and others who did not know the truth instinctively stopped after seeing the mountain.

"My Lord, aren't we leaving now?"

We were about to reach the border by crossing the mountain, but Prince Rui suddenly stopped us from going. How could this be possible?

The deputy general was anxious. If he could wipe out Prince Chen's subordinates in one fell swoop this time, he would be rewarded for his merits when he returned, and he would surely be promoted again at that time.

By then, even winning two levels in a row would be possible.

The deputy general was naturally anxious thinking this way. He just wanted to make achievements as soon as possible and his brain was totally distracted!

Although Prince Rui was impulsive and reckless, he was still quite capable in military affairs. He was familiar with the terrain of Dasheng and knew that there would be no obstacles after crossing this mountain.

Then they can rush directly to the border.

But that was what made him stop, because Shen Chenli was not a fool, he was still the God of War.

Knowing that they were going to attack him, he naturally would not give up this advantageous natural barrier.

Therefore, he could conclude that there must be an ambush on the mountain!

"Your Majesty?"

Prince Rui, who was immersed in his own thoughts, was interrupted and looked over impatiently.

This deputy general was so annoying. His mouth was just like a chicken raised on a farmer's farm. It kept clucking in front of him every day, which made people so angry that they wanted to kill him!

"Shut up, I am the commander of an army, what are you yelling about?"

The deputy general, who was scolded in public, closed his mouth gloomily, but his lowered eyes were full of gloom.

What’s so great about that? Isn’t it just that you were born into a good family?

How could such a person become the commander of an army, while he worked diligently for most of his life but was still a deputy general!

Seeing that he lowered his head and dared not speak again, Prince Rui looked at him contemptuously, and then said loudly:

"Lead the way forward, watch out for ambushes, and advance slowly!"

A team of a thousand men instantly arrived to clear the way, while Prince Rui and others advanced later.

Seeing this scene, Song Shixu gritted his teeth.

Damn it, it would be great if they could just kill Prince Rui directly. That way they would only have to persuade other soldiers and generals to surrender, increasing their military strength while reducing casualties!

He really couldn't bring himself to kill anyone from Dasheng!

Seeing that they had reached the designated area, Song Shixu gritted his teeth and was reluctant to give orders.

"Prince Song, if you don't light the fire..." It's too late!

"This prince knows!"

He closed his eyes tightly again, and when he opened his eyes, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in Song Shixu's eyes.

"point!"

boom!

boom!boom!

"Ahhhhhhh~"

"Help me!!"

In an instant, there were explosions and wailing sounds, and Prince Rui's army was completely stunned by the noise.

When they came to their senses, the soldiers who had never experienced such a scene were all weak in the knees or feet.

Those who were still able to move kept backing away and were unwilling to move forward.

Some people were still trembling their lips and said:

"God is angry!"

"God must be so displeased that he wants to punish us!"

They all knew, not only the people of Da Sheng, but even people from other countries knew, that the Emperor of Da Sheng falsely accused the God of War of Da Sheng of treason.

So many of them were not very willing when they came here, and now that something like this has suddenly happened, it has made some people believe it more firmly.

God must be angry. He is angry that they treated a loyal minister, a soldier defending the country, like this. They are disheartened, so God came to punish them!

Someone instantly knelt on the ground and began to shout for mercy.

Once there was one, there were two, and soon a large group of people were kneeling.

Especially those who waited for the dust to clear and saw the tragic conditions of those that were bombed were so frightened that they knelt on the ground!

Prince Rui also saw clearly what was ahead. His originally doubtful expression became even more horrified when he saw the situation in front of him.

Of course, he didn't think that this was God's anger, but he saw clearly that these must be man-made, and Shen Chenli must have something extremely powerful in his hands.

When he saw that his soldiers had been frightened and fallen to the ground, he became even more furious and whipped one of them with his whip.

"Ah!"

"You useless fools, get up, all of you! What do you mean God is angry? That's the conspiracy of these rebels. It's their trick. Don't be scared by them. They must have had the intention of rebellion for a long time. Come at me!"

But no one is listening to him at the moment. The voice is too loud, like thunder coming out of a clear sky. What kind of trick could cause such a noise?

Anyway, they don’t know!

Prince Rui saw how cowardly they were and wished he could cut them into pieces.

Then, a voice was heard saying, "Your Majesty, how about we set up camp here and let our subordinates explore the road ahead to see what's going on?"

Hearing this, Prince Rui's anger temporarily subsided.

After a long pause, he ordered people to set up camp and let others go ahead to explore the way.

After all, he was a little scared. No matter what that thing was, the dead people had their bodies torn into pieces. Even he, as a prince, didn't understand the situation.

It was simply too shocking, so the words of the personal guard just now gave him a way out, and he no longer needed to lead the way forward.

He doesn't want to die in such an unclear way!

It was because of this that Prince Rui stopped here. Song Shixu was not in a hurry and also hid in the mountains and watched them.

Seeing that there were people who wanted to gather information, Song Shixu told them to "go but never return", and the stalemate lasted until Yu Tingwan arrived!
