Wan Qitong immediately reminded: "There is no way to retreat once we reach Storm Bay."
Storm Bay is a peninsula protruding into the sea.
"You have to be able to get through Baishitun!" Lu Qingbang pointed towards the forest, "The Yaguo people have cut off the way. No matter how hard you attack, you can't break through with so many women and children!"
The rest of Bailong's main army's journey to the west is actually not long. They only need to walk another 110 miles and cross Baishitun to reach Bailie territory! Once they enter, they will be safe.
This road is usually open and easy to walk, but now it has become a chasm that no one can cross.
The Yaguo people were obviously well prepared and blocked their only way.
If you want to force your way through, how many Bailong people will survive in the end after walking this one hundred and ten miles? Lu Qingbang is not optimistic.
Of course Wan Qitong also understands this. After one year of wandering, there are not many old people in the clan anymore, but the proportion of women and children is still very high. There are nearly 40,000 people in the clan, and the real combat strength is less than 2,000——
Alas, when we first left Ya Kingdom, there were obviously nearly five thousand warriors in the clan.
Therefore, when Lu Qingbang told him that there was a response from Storm Harbor, he also ordered the entire clan to deviate from the original route and head south.
Women and children go first, and the army comes behind.
This is also a huge gamble, and Wan Qitong bets the lives of 40,000 people in his family.
Sadly, he had no other option.
At dawn, after the sacrifice of more than 200 warriors, they finally arrived at Storm Bay.
Blocked by the pursuers, they spent most of the night on a mere 20 miles of mountain road - the night was dark, the mountains were rugged, both young and old could not walk fast, and more than a dozen incidents of falling to death occurred.
It’s really called Bu Bu’s blood and tears.
Fortunately, they finally arrived at their destination.
Storm Bay is a wild bay with beautiful and open scenery. There was no trace of human beings originally, but Lu Qingbang had already prepared manpower and ships here to respond.
This was his backup plan, but he didn't expect it to actually be used.
However, just as the large group of people rushed towards the bay panting, there were several gunshots in front of them, and then there were flames shooting into the sky!
Lu Qingbang and Wan Qitong's hearts sank.
The sentries in the front line also rushed back to report that the bay suddenly broke out in flames of war, and the ships originally stationed here were either captured or hurriedly fled away from the shore into deep water.
The two climbed up to a high place and took a look, and sure enough they saw a chaos on the beach. Several boats were burning, and more than 20 large boats had been occupied. The boatmen were kneeling on the beach.
Stormreach has fallen into enemy hands!
The remaining ships were frightened, so they lowered their anchors and set sails and fled the coastline. What Lu Qingbang and the two saw were the backs of them leaving in a hurry——
The people of Yaguo actually arrived first and cut off their last escape route!
Wan Qitong's eyes turned red when he looked at Lu Qingbang, and he said hoarsely: "Is this your back-up plan?"
It’s over. Lu Qingbang is sweating like rain.
The secret of the Bailong people's westward migration was exposed, and it could be explained that there was a spy inside. However, how could the people of Yaguo predict that he had set up a back-up plan here?
Of course, this thought only flashed through his mind and was thrown out of his mind. The most important words at the moment were only three words:
what to do?
He also heard Wan Qitong's roar and felt confused.
Storm Bay is a peninsula, easy to get in and out. The Yaguo people know how to ambush them on the way and burn the ships rushing to Storm Bay. Don't they know how to guard the main entrance and exit of this peninsula?
They had no choice but to go back the way they came.
Bailong has nearly 40,000 living people under his command, and the 600 fine cavalry he brought with him. How can he escape from the clutches of the Yaguo people?
Wan Qitong turned around and ordered to his tribe: "Turn around, let's fight a bloody path!"
There are no escape ships here, and staying in Storm Bay is the only way to die.
They can only fight bloody battles and break out with all their strength, no matter how heavy the price they pay!
"Wait a minute!" Lu Qingbang pressed Wan Qitong's shoulders, but he threw him away.
"Going northeast along the coastline, there is Lutin Beach, also on this peninsula. I can send a message to the escaping ships and ask them to rush there to pick us up!"
Wan Qitong pointed in the direction of Storm Bay and said angrily: "I just listened to your nonsense. Is there any good result? If the people of Yaguo can lay out their plans here, won't they also send people to Luting Beach?"
"Believe it or not, it's up to you, but I will definitely rush to Luting Beach." Lu Qingbang said calmly, "That beach is small and cannot accommodate many ships. The people of Yaguo don't like it."
"We can't stop many ships? So what's the use of rushing there?"
"You can send some women and children away first. There are islands twenty miles offshore. Send people there, and the boat can come back to pick them up. Within a day, you can make at least three round trips." Lu Qingbang said seriously, "If today
It's the end, don't you want to send the children away? Even if you leave some blood and thoughts to the Bailong people!"
It is impossible to take away all the thirty or forty thousand people from this tribe.
To leave this peninsula, you have to pay a heavy price.
Wan Qitong did not hesitate for too long before agreeing to the plan, because the pursuers from behind were catching up again.
"Send the order, let's rush to Luting Beach!"

One day after another, on the beach of Xiaoye Island affiliated to Platinum Island.
In Huang Zhao's eager anticipation, what appeared together with the fiery red sunset was the mighty fleet on the sea to the west——
New fleet from Yangshan Islands!
From his perspective, the sea surface was almost completely occupied by densely packed ships of various sizes.
Hundreds of boats raced, each sail like a flag, reflecting the fiery red sunset.
Even the residents of Platinum Island couldn't stop when they saw this scene. They had not seen such a spectacular scene for a long, long time.
Huang Zhao immediately drove a small boat to take him to the leader of the fleet. Several of his men carried a large box for him.
As soon as he stepped onto the deck, Ding Zuodong greeted him: "Where are you going?"
General Manager Ding is now the number one leader of the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce. He usually stays on Sodin Island to take care of important matters and rarely goes out to work anymore.
This trip was his first long trip on a ship in three months.
An urgent message from He Lingchuan caused him to drop everything in his hands and rush over, causing the entire Yangshan Islands to be busy in the past ten hours.
Huang Zhao first said hello respectfully to Aunt Zhu and Dong Rui who came with the boat, and then said:
"Let's rush to Storm Bay, the sooner the better!"
He Lingchuan left first, leaving his subordinate Huang Zhao here to meet Yang Shan's reinforcement fleet.
Ding Zuodong turned around and gave an order, and the entire fleet slowly turned around and headed towards Storm Bay.
Huang Zhao stood on the deck and counted the ships: "Only these ships were sent?"
"These ships are all carrying troops - two thousand escorts. As for the ships transporting supplies, they will arrive half a day late. The army is easy to dispatch, but the amount of supplies ordered by the owner to be prepared is too large and urgent. The islands are busy for most of the day
