There is indeed nothing wrong with Pang Tong's idea.
Communicating with Wei Yan through secret codes, at least in his opinion, since not many corpses of Wei Yan's soldiers were found, the condition of Wei Yan and others must not be too bad.
As long as the code is connected, they can obtain information from both sides and then use a double-team method to counterattack the enemy.
It was a good idea, but Pang Tong missed one point.
What he missed was the consciousness of the enemy they faced.
——
The perspective comes to the other side.
Just when Wei Yan sent Wang Wu to notify the army.
A group of people had been quietly watching them as they went up the mountain.
This is a group of people who live in the mountains and forests, and are integrated with the mountains and forests.
It can be said that the mountains are their territory. Any strong army in this world, as long as they go up the mountains and enter the forests, will have no absolute chance of winning against them.
They are naturally Shanyue people.
A group of remnants of an era that was once driven out by Jiangdong.
In the past ten years, it seems that because of the growing strength of the Jiangdong Army, it has become increasingly difficult for the Shanyue people to survive.
So much so that hunting alone is no longer enough to support a medium-sized or larger group.
As the largest group of Shanyue people to survive after being encircled and suppressed by two generations of Jiangdong masters, Sun Ce and Sun Quan, Peng Hu and Fei Zhan got a chance to be reborn.
They met the noble person of their destiny and obtained unimaginable survival resources.
In just a few months after that, the Shanyue people, who had been displaced and nearly exterminated, once again had the opportunity to gather together.
The difference between the Shanyue people and the bandits is still very big. Compared with the bandits who commit all kinds of crimes by burning, killing, looting, and robbing, the Shanyue people are more like a group of old armies that have experienced competition and were eventually eliminated by this era.
They have certain principles, but because of their conflicts with the current regime in Jiangdong, they cannot gain more recognition in the land where they live. Over time, they are classified as beings like bandits.
In fact, they are just waiting for an opportunity.
Now is that opportunity.
The Shanyue people hiding in the forest held their breath and concentrated. Even if a large army passed in front of them, they were still as calm as hunters.
They are waiting for their prey to automatically fall into the trap.
【Ahhhhh...my legs...】
The screams of soldiers were heard in the distance, and after the screams, the army gathered in the forest seemed to be a little panicked.
Then everyone heard the voice of a general with an extremely loud voice on the other side.
He calmed everyone down and soon the two teams gathered together.
At this moment, Peng Hu, who was lurking in the middle, quickly communicated with the people around him using secret codes:
"Next, listen to my signal and attack together. It doesn't matter how many people you can kill. You just need to finish the whole round in unison and then disperse immediately. Do you understand?"
Perhaps it was because he had suffered heavy losses in the mountain battle and the forest battle. What surprised Peng Hu was that Wei Yan and the others actually had a way of communicating with each other in secret codes.
But it is obvious that Wei Yan and others only learned the superficial knowledge and did not learn the essence. Real secret codes cannot make people immediately realize that someone is using secret codes.
After learning this, Peng Hu felt confident.
"Be careful in everything, sir, you have high hopes for us..."
This latter sentence is actually well known to everyone.
Why are they here?
The reason is that they have gained Yi Xiaotian's trust.
Yes, Wei Yan may not know that the trap in front of him is just a small meeting gift. The real trap waiting for him is a series of strategies designed by Yi Xiaotian for Liu Beijun——
——
Wei Yan's reaction was very sharp, and he discovered a Shanyue man who was not completely hidden through the grass so far away.
This is indeed Peng Hu's mistake.
But... no matter what, his determination will not change.
While mourning for his dead brother, he clenched his fists again.
The time has not come yet…
Wei Yan is looking at the body.
The time hasn't come yet.
He seemed to have noticed something, and immediately chose to have people return to the main army to bring in reinforcements.
Great...everything is under control...
Wei Yan, who sent Wang Wu away, never thought that his behavior would play into the hands of Peng Hu and others who were hiding in the dark.
Seeing Wei Yan finally react, it was not the so-called Le'an remnant soldiers who really ambushed them.
In fact, the remnant soldiers of Le'an had already fled to other places under the guidance of Peng Hu Feizhan and others - they just left some footprints at the foot of the mountain.
Such a simple thing took advantage of Wei Yan and others' positive thinking and the inertia of their thinking, which led to the fact that no one among them was aware of such a simple strategy.
All in all, after Wei Yan discovered the mystery of the corpse's identity, he quickly began to gather his troops.
"It's not advisable to stay here for a long time! Let the scouts come back soon!"
Wei Yan gritted his teeth and said, but at the same time, a scream suddenly came from near the end of the mountain road.
Peng Hu suddenly became energetic. He clearly knew what was happening in the distance and raised his hands high - then, the signal he was waiting for came, and a sound like a bird suddenly sounded. This was Peng Hu and others.
's secret code.
Before Wei Yan realized what the problem was, Peng Hu gave the order.
Suddenly, the dense forest seemed to come alive - but the first thing to fly out was not an arrow but...
"careful!"
Wei Yan roared, feeling vaguely in danger. When he noticed the noise in the dense forest, he immediately instinctively alerted the soldiers to be alert.
But the arrow he was wary of never arrived.
So what fell from the sky were countless nooses made of hemp rope——
"What's this!"
"Uh! Ah! Help! Help me!!"
The changes in the field were so fast that Wei Yan's soldiers did not react at all. The lasso was so precise that it caught the heads of nearly a hundred soldiers. Then a huge force came from the end of the rope, causing these ignorant soldiers to be instantly
Drag and fly.
Yes, the unimaginable power and such unexpected timing made it impossible for anyone to resist and was dragged away.
Wei Yan was horrified and quickly asked the soldiers around him to cut off the rope, but...
The second time, the arrows were like locusts, and Wei Yan could only parry them again and again.
"We're ambushed, pick up your shield quickly, we'll fight and retreat at the same time! Don't worry about those brothers who are trapped!"
Despite his heartache, Wei Yan could only make this decision.
We have to go - screams rang out one after another, and the sight of the soldiers was defeated. Even Wei Yan found it difficult to remain completely calm in the face of this situation.
But they do face a huge problem - where to go?
Peng Hu had no intention of giving Wei Yan a chance to choose. He called out bird songs with his mouth, guiding his subordinates to concentrate their efforts and put the pressure of attack on Wei Yan and others on their way down the mountain.
Wei Yan and others were forced to retreat continuously and had no choice but to flee higher in the mountains and forests.
