The game world.
The leaders of Yin Yue Village and Ling She Village were holding a meeting together.
The main reason was the destruction of Xiong Ya Village, which made them feel a sense of impending crisis, like lips and teeth being vulnerable.
"Da Ban Ya has gone to seek help from Kao Shan Wang, and there should be news soon. Everyone, don't be anxious,"
Qing Kou She, the leader of Ling She Village, appeased everyone present.
After the destruction of Xiong Ya Village, Da Ban Ya had nowhere to go and did not want to join the other two families as a subordinate. The only one who could make Da Ban Ya yield was Kao Shan Wang. So, he went to Kao Shan Wang, intending to pledge allegiance to him and inform him of the situation here.
"How can we not be anxious? When all three of our villages were intact, they could still destroy Xiong Ya Village. Now that Xiong Ya Village is gone, and only we two are left, can we still stop them?"
Bai Yue, the leader of Yin Yue Village, rolled up her sleeves, placed one foot arrogantly on the table, revealing her fair thigh, and said coldly.
The men present were immediately captivated by Bai Yue's thigh.
"What are you looking at! Look again and I'll dig your eyes out!"
Bai Yue glared fiercely at everyone around her as a warning.
But she made no move to put her leg down.
Everyone immediately averted their gaze.
If Bai Yue said she would dig out your eyes, she probably would.
"If we don't wait, what else can we do? Attack proactively? Wouldn't that be a faster death?"
Qing Kou She was also helpless. Now, the only path forward was to wait for Kao Shan Wang's reinforcement. There was no other way.
"Brother! A front-line messenger from Kao Shan Wang has arrived!"
A subordinate below suddenly brought them good news.
"Quick, invite him in!"
Qing Kou She said excitedly.
Soon, a bandit walked in.
"Greetings to Leader Qing Kou She and Leader Bai Yue."
The other party calmly addressed the two above.
"What does Kao Shan Wang say?"
Qing Kou She anxiously asked.
"Kao Shan Wang will arrive soon. He asked me to inform you leaders to not let the Bandit Suppression Camp escape."
"How long will it take Kao Shan Wang to arrive here?"
Qing Kou She asked anxiously. He wanted to know when Kao Shan Wang would arrive, not just a verbal promise.
"Kao Shan Wang is bringing too many people. He will arrive this afternoon."
Kao Shan Wang, in order to appease these three mountain villages, specifically sent him to deliver the message at top speed. Kao Shan Wang himself was on his way with more people.
"Good! That's good!"
Qing Kou She breathed a sigh of relief. As long as Kao Shan Wang could arrive, they would be safe.
"What if the Bandit Suppression Camp attacks now?"
Bai Yue said with some worry.
"Don't be a jinx!"
Qing Kou She said speechlessly to Bai Yue.
"Report! The Bandit Suppression Camp is heading up the mountain!"
Qing Kou She almost fainted, and immediately glared at Bai Yue.
Bai Yue: ...
Bai Yue was a little embarrassed.
I just said it casually, it has nothing to do with me.
"What do we do?"
The second-in-command of Ling She Village asked Qing Kou She with some worry.
"What else can we do! Gather our men and hold them off until Kao Shan Wang arrives!"
Qing Kou She said helplessly.
"Yes!"
The people of Ling She Village immediately responded and went to gather their men to set up defenses.
"I will take my leave now and return to prepare to resist the attack of the Bandit Suppression Camp."
Bai Yue also chose to leave at this time. She also needed to go back and start setting up defenses.
Li Changmin and Xu Tian led their men to the foot of the mountain. Looking at the prepared rolling stones and logs on the mountain, they felt it was a bit tricky.
It was indeed difficult to attack a mountain when the enemy was prepared.
Those rolling stones and logs were simply life harvesters.
Xu Tian's ability to take down Xiong Ya Village in a short period was only because he took advantage of the enemy's lack of reaction.
"Commander Li, how do you think we should fight this time?"
Xu Tian asked Li Changmin in a sarcastic tone.
"Your Xian Zhen Camp has more men. You go first, and our Bandit Suppression Camp will help you hold off reinforcements,"
Li Changmin said calmly.
"Hmph!"
Xu Tian snorted.
Li Changmin had a good plan, letting their Xian Zhen Camp take the risk? Dream on!
"I think the Bandit Suppression Camp should take the lead, after all, we are here to assist the Bandit Suppression Camp, and the Bandit Suppression Camp is the main force,"
Xu Tian immediately threw the responsibility back to Li Changmin.
"No, no, no, Xian Zhen Camp is very capable, you guys go first."
"No, no, no, Bandit Suppression Camp has many experts, you guys go."
"Xian Zhen Camp has more experience, you go."
"Bandit Suppression Camp..."
...
The two of them immediately started arguing, neither willing to take the lead in the attack.
"Stop arguing!"
Su Fan walked out from behind and immediately reprimanded them.
If they continued to argue, they would soon start fighting.
"Besiege the mountain!"
Su Fan immediately gave the order.
In this situation, the only way was to cut off their supplies and starve them. This was the simplest method.
Su Fan learned this from Li Changmin.
"Hmph!"
Xu Tian snorted at Li Changmin and turned to leave.
Su Fan sighed.
Although Xu Tian was Fang Shijie's subordinate, Su Fan could still command Xu Tian at this point. Once his identity was revealed, Xu Tian would probably not listen to him.
"Sir, the remaining two mountain villages must have sent word to Kao Shan Wang. Besieging the mountain will waste a lot of time. If Kao Shan Wang arrives, it will be dangerous,"
Li Changmin reminded Su Fan.
Li Changmin, with his experience, had a very clear understanding of the battlefield situation. The current situation did not allow for a starvation strategy.
"It's fine, I want Kao Shan Wang to come."
Su Fan waved his hand.
He was waiting for Kao Shan Wang.
"You take the Bandit Suppression Camp and try to keep your troops in the rear, always ready to retreat. Once you start fighting with Kao Shan Wang, leave without a second word, understand?"
Xia Yuan's strategy for Su Fan was to lure Kao Shan Wang over. Once Kao Shan Wang arrived, all they needed to do was watch the dogs fight.
"Yes!"
Military orders are like mountains. Since Su Fan had already considered this, Li Changmin only needed to follow the order.
Although this would put the Xian Zhen Camp in a difficult situation, as long as the brothers of the Bandit Suppression Camp were safe, it was fine. Moreover, the Xian Zhen Camp was not what it used to be.
Su Fan went to the Xian Zhen Camp to wait for Kao Shan Wang's arrival.
Xu Tian, on the other hand, arranged the Xian Zhen Camp at the entrance of the mountain path, completely sealing off Ling She Village's escape route and trapping them.
Time passed slowly. Qing Kou She, the leader of Ling She Village, also discovered the Bandit Suppression Camp's strategy of besieging without attacking. This actually made him breathe a sigh of relief.
If the Bandit Suppression Camp had desperately attacked, they would not have known what to do. Ling She Village would probably be gone before Kao Shan Wang arrived.
"Report! A group of people has arrived from the southeast. It is estimated to be at least a thousand strong. We do not know whose forces they are!"
A scout from the Xian Zhen Camp suddenly reported to Xu Tian.
Su Fan, who was standing nearby, immediately knew it was Kao Shan Wang.
"What? Investigate again and find out who they are!"
Xu Tian frowned.
"Yes!"
The scout left immediately.
Soon, another scout returned.
"Report! A large group of bandits has arrived from the southeast, well-equipped, and are now less than ten miles away!"
Xu Tian was shocked.
