"Don't worry, the leader of the Cheno Group, Pingyang Kingdom and Huaning Kingdom are a distance away from here, so let's continue to stick to it." Li Yi could only answer this way in the face of the leader of the Cheno Group.
But just as Li Yi finished speaking, a lookout soldier on the city tower suddenly shouted loudly: "Report to the chief, there are a large number of troops in the southwest direction, I don't know if it is an enemy or a friend."
When everyone heard the sound, they stood on the city tower and looked towards the southwest. Unfortunately, the distance was too far, and people only saw a gust of dust flying in the distance, and they couldn't see anything else clearly.
Suddenly, the lookout soldiers shouted loudly again: "There is another large number of troops in the southeast."
Faced with the sudden appearance of two unknown troops, everyone became anxious. Everyone hoped that these two troops were the troops to support, but people were afraid that this was the reinforcements of Sai State. If this were the case, then Wu'an State would be in danger.
Margaret shouted loudly to the lookout soldiers: "Look carefully, whether these two troops are wearing red flags."
"Madam Lor, what do you mean?" suddenly heard Margaret shouting, and Commander Cheno asked curiously.
"Chenno's regiment commander, don't be curious. When we sent people to ask for help, we agreed that if Pingyang Kingdom and Huaning Kingdom agreed to send troops and were willing to assist our attack on the Sai enemy, they would use the red flag as their horn." Before Margaret could speak, Li Yi had already explained beside Commander Chenno.
"What Captain Li said is very true, so it's an enemy or a friend, we'll know in a while." Margaret believed that the two troops who are coming to help him now came, so his tone became relaxed unconsciously.
Not long after, the high-level lookout soldiers shouted loudly: "There are red flags, red flags, sir, both troops are charging with red flags. And looking at the direction of their charge, it seems that they are preparing to fight with the Sai army."
When everyone present heard the words of the Lookout Army, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, they were attacked by the Sai army for two days, and they had to find a chance to release the breath that was held in their chests.
Margaret looked at Li Yi happily and said with a smile: "Captain Li, our reinforcements have finally arrived. Now is the time for us to launch an offensive. Are you still going to lead your troops to take the lead?"
Because of Li Yi's performance on the first day, everyone present thought that Li Yi would volunteer to fight without hesitation. But what everyone did not expect was that Li Yi said lightly: "Madam Luo, I won't fight in this first round."
Facing Li Yi's answer, although Margaret was a little surprised, she was not too forced. Facing his tactical killer, he finally arrived. Margaret now only wants to lead troops to kill the generals in a while and kill all the invaders of Sai Country.
But before Margaret could arrange the staff again, Li Yi said again: "Madam Loll, forgive Li Yi for saying something disheartening. I have had an unknown premonition since yesterday. I feel that the two troops that suddenly arrived were suspicious. I think we should wait and see what the changes are."
"Huh?" Margaret, who had been immersed in joy, suddenly heard Li Yi say this and couldn't help but look down. "What does General Li mean? Now everything is moving in a direction that is beneficial to our army. Do you let us miss this great opportunity? If you miss this opportunity and keep it to the death, our Wu'an Kingdom will eventually end up destroying the country. Do you think there is suspicion among these two troops? You might as well say it out."
Li Yi looked at Margaret's gloomy face and didn't know how to respond for a while. He couldn't just tell others that he had just made a judgment based on his feelings. Knowing that Margaret would never miss this opportunity, Li Yi chose to keep silent.
Margaret did not say anything to Li Yi anymore, but turned to Commander Cheno and said, "Chino, I wonder if your troops can help our country attack this time. The remaining troops in our country are really not much, and even if we attack, it will be difficult to cause too much impact."
Commander Cheno has been salivating at Margaret since he first came to Wu'an Guo Capital last night. Now, facing Margaret's pitiful appearance, he couldn't help but wave his hand and said proudly: "Don't worry, Mrs. Lol, since all the ladies have been arranged, then our troops will all follow the ladies' arrangements."
Seeing that Commander Cheno was obviously lustful, Li Yi could only shake his head secretly. After Margaret and several others walked down the city tower, Li Yi suddenly turned to Alice and said, "Alice, go and summon the officers and soldiers of the Second Knights who were on standby in the school grounds, let them all be armed and wait for my orders. And let them each bring another horse to spare for the brothers who had changed their defenses from the city wall."
Hearing Li Yi's order, Alice couldn't help but feel curious and said, "Li Yi, is it really that bad? Everything is good now, why are you so pessimistic?"
"Alice, believe me this time. My competitive spirit is no weaker than you, but this time, I really feel very unsafe. So many brothers have died a few days ago, and I can no longer watch them die." Li Yi watched the situation under the city motionlessly and said to Alice calmly.
Alice was also used to following Li Yi's orders. Although she was still a little confused about Li Yi's decision, she still ran to the school ground obediently and prepared to assemble the troops.
Not long after, Li Yi saw Commander Cherno and Commander Garrick leading their respective troops and rushed out of the city gate.
Li Yi looked at them and said coldly: "You ask for blessings."
Li Yi was still standing on the city tower and looked coldly as Commander Cheno led the brigade of troops to rush into the Sai army camp.
At this time, Margaret returned to the city tower again and stood beside Li Yi with a smile.
"Captain Li, don't you think this will be a Jedi counterattack that has been recorded in history?" Margaret said with a smile, with an unconcealed pride in his words.
Li Yi just nodded politely, but did not say anything.
Margaret was really surprised why Li Yi suddenly showed this. Before, Li Yi had been trying his best to help Wu'anguo defend the city, but now he suddenly showed such a pessimistic look, which made Margaret not know what Li Yi was thinking.
"General Li, can you tell me what the hell is, what is it? You are like this now." Margaret finally couldn't help but ask Li Yi seriously.
Li Yi finally stopped staring at the battlefield under the city, but turned his head and looked at Margaret seriously and said, "Mrs. Lol, I, Li Yi, never denies that I am a war idiot. But I don't know whether you believe it or not, my premonition has always been very accurate. For some reason, since last night, I felt a vague feeling in my heart. Although I can't explain what it is, I believe in my intuition, so this time I don't want to accompany you to take risks."
Although Li Yi said it very seriously, it did not shake Margaret's confidence at the moment. Margaret didn't believe that Li Yi's bullshit intuition would be so evil. She only believed that this time, with the help of the Imperial army and the attacks of friendly forces from neighboring countries outside, and the Sai army experienced two days of tragic siege, their chances of winning in Wu'an Kingdom were definitely more than 70%.
Neglecting Li Yi, Margaret looked down at the city nervously, wanting to see the Sai army be defeated with his own eyes.
But unexpectedly, Li Yi, who had been pampering his words today, spoke again: "Madam Luo, I suddenly thought of something. Have you ever thought that the troops of Pingyang and Huaning Kingdom who came today are really here to help us?"
When she heard Li Yi say this suddenly, Margaret's smile that was originally in her mouth suddenly froze on the corner of her mouth. She kept thinking with common sense, believing that if Pingyang Kingdom and Huaning Kingdom did not come to provide assistance this time, they would inevitably be punished by Tianlan Kingdom in the future. But she forgot that if these two countries had defected to the Sai Empire, then this speculation would be completely untenable.
But then I thought about it, Pingyang Kingdom and Hua Ning Kingdom might not be like this. Margaret did not answer Li Yi, but just comforted herself and looked at the battle situation under the city. But this time, Margaret was really nervous.
At this time, the troops of the regiment Cheno had rushed to the front of the Sai army. The enemy troops who were sieging the city saw a defending army attacking, and there were a large number. They all turned the attack and placed them in the direction, surrounded the troops of the regiment Cheno.
According to the tactics formulated by Margaret and Li Yi, when the troops are now attacking, reinforcements from the other two countries need to assist from both sides. Only in this way can we rely on sieges on three sides to completely disintegrate the Sai army's offensive.
But the current situation is that when the regiment commander of the Cheno rushed into the heavily encircled Sai army, although the reinforcements from the other two countries also launched a charge towards the Sai army as planned, when they rushed into the Sai army camp, they did not launch an offensive towards the Sai army as Margaret expected, but successfully inserted into the Sai Empire's queue, and the Sai army did not launch an offensive against them.
Seeing this situation, Margaret was stunned. After a while, she turned her attention to Li Yi for help, as if waiting for something Li Yi said.
Li Yi could only smile bitterly, but he didn't expect that his unknown premonition would come true, although he actually didn't want to see this situation.
Seeing that Li Yi never spoke, Margaret finally couldn't calm down and said anxiously to Li Yi: "General Li, did Pingyang Kingdom and Hua Ning Kingdom really defect to the Sai Empire?"
Li Yi calmly touched his nose and said to Margaret: "Analysis of this situation, except for the situation you mentioned, there is no other reason to explain it."
"What should we do? Commander Cheno just took away the most of the new forces in the city. If we just watched their entire army be destroyed, then our Wu'an Kingdom would be out of stock." When Margaret spoke, his voice trembled unconsciously.
"Madam Lor, I had already said the danger of doing this before. But at that time I could not produce absolute evidence to prove my guess, so now I am too lazy to say anything sarcastic. Although I am not a war master, from my ordinary perspective, the leader of the Cheno and the others can no longer be saved. Unless the gods have descended to earth, or we suddenly have an army of 100,000 suddenly appear. Otherwise, all we can do now is to watch their demise." Li Yi said coldly, without any sadness at all because of the demise that leader of the Cheno and the others are about to face.
"Then, what are General Li's plans next?" Margaret knew that Li Yi had no intention of rescue, so she could only ask Li Yi's plans next.
"Madam Luo, I, Li Yi, is not a saint, I am sorry to be honest. Wu'anguo is your motherland, but not my motherland. The troops I lead are the most elite troops of my Tianlan Empire. They have fought bloody battles with me, so I will no longer lead them into an impossible war." Li Yi looked at the city and found that Commander Cheno's troops were just fighting for trapped beasts.
"I had made an impulsive choice before, and thus lost thousands of elite soldiers of the empires. Now I have realized that I can no longer let them lose their great names because of my mistakes. Mrs. Lol, Wu'anguo can no longer be saved. Taking advantage of the time that Commander Cheno and his friends have won outside the city, you should arrange for royal personnel to prepare. I will lead the troops to protect them from the West Gate later, and I will do my best to ensure their safety." After saying that, Li Yi no longer paid attention to the battlefield, but turned around and walked down the city.
"General Li, are you going to abandon us?" Margaret asked coldly after hearing Li Yi's words.
"Well, yes." Li Yi did not defend himself at all, and said coldly, and walked down the city tower without looking back. In Li Yi's heart, only those whom he identified would protect them with all his strength. For the others, they had no relationship with him, whether they were dead or alive.
He hurried to the school ground and found that Alice and other officers and soldiers of the Second Knights were ready to go. Li Yi walked forward with satisfaction and said loudly: "This city has no meaning of defense. Now I order that all the soldiers of the Second Knights of the Central Army will set off with me and we will abandon the city."
Everyone was stunned when they heard Li Yi's words. After a while, the captain who had reported military information to Li Yi walked forward and asked carefully: "Captain, ours really abandoned the city? In this case, wouldn't he be punished by the empire?"
"The situation of the war has been settled, and we are powerless to turn the world. If we still fight stubbornly, we will just die in vain. If we can win, I will never lead you as deserters. But now there is no chance of victory, so I can no longer let any of you go out and die. We have lost too many brothers, and I don't want you to die in the battlefield as sweet as you."
Although Li Yi's words sounded extremely awkward, the soldiers present sounded very considerate. After all, the regiment commander sincerely considered the soldiers and took the lives of every soldier around him to heart.
Li Yi rode a war horse and waited on the school ground for a long time until he faintly heard that the Sai army had broken the city, and he did not see any members of the royal family in Wu'an Kingdom come to take refuge.
Although I can't figure out why this is the case, Li Yi felt that he had done his best to be kind and righteous. If he waited further, he would be surrounded by the enemy.
After decisively making an order to set off, Li Yi took the lead and hurriedly ran towards the north city gate with the thousands of cavalry left by his subordinates.
After leaving the city, Alice rode on the horse and asked Li Yi: "Li Yi, where will we start next."
