Chapter 245
In the dense forest, a group of soldiers were sitting or lying down, gulping down the choking dry food. Everyone had panic and uncertainty on their faces.

Not far away, some soldiers were guarding, scanning their surroundings vigilantly, waiting for the robes to finish eating before it was their turn to rest.

There was also a trace of fear in their eyes.

Since entering the forest for six days, some comrades have been injured every day, but the enemy has disappeared without a trace and no trace to be found, which made them angry and also felt a strong sense of powerlessness.

Therefore, a rumor spread among the army.

Many soldiers were saying that these barbarians were half-human, half-ghost, and when they turned into half-ghost, they would disappear without a trace, which was why no matter how hard they searched, they couldn't find each other.

There is no basis for this rumor, but what happened in the past few days has made many illiterate soldiers begin to believe in it, and thus fear in their hearts.

As a result, the morale of the entire army continued to drop, and they were like frightened birds every day. If there was a slight movement, the grass and trees would all become soldiers, and they were terrified.

Heng Yu saw this scene, and he was sitting in the middle of the line, eating his dry food slowly, feeling heavy in his heart like a boulder.

Although he didn't believe this rumor, he couldn't make the soldiers not believe it.Now that he has fallen into such a situation, the battle situation is so unfavorable, and the confidence of the soldiers has plummeted. Even though he is helpless, there is nothing he can do.

To improve morale, the only way to reduce casualties is to increase the number of enemies killed.

But in the past few days, he kept changing his tactics, racking his brains, but to no avail.

It was only because the barbarians were good at hiding and were familiar with this dense forest, and since they were few in number and fought in different places, their line of sight was obstructed by the forest, so they fell into a disadvantage.

If he wanted to change the situation of the battle, he could only increase his troops or destroy this dense forest, but he was unable to do both.

Therefore, he was extremely helpless, but he also knew that this situation must be changed as soon as possible.

If it drags on, the soldiers will eventually collapse!

Must fight fast!

This war must be completely resolved while the army is still fighting!
After only a moment of contemplation, Heng Yu made a decision.

According to their situation, the success rate of annihilating the barbarians is less than one in ten thousand.

Only when the sword is slanted is the right way.

The method is to capture the thief first and capture the king first!

Although the Tianteng tribe is not educated, they believe in the king's order. As long as they capture their leader, they can intimidate the tribe and make them all surrender!
Thinking of this, a stern light flashed in Heng Yu's eyes.

……

"General Situ, in the past six days, our army has suffered nearly [-] casualties. The damage is huge!"

Situ Hongguang, who was walking slowly along with the team, frowned when he heard what the lieutenant beside him said.

More than [-] people are not particularly many, but the problem is that this number has been increasing.

In other words, if it continues to drag on, they will continue to reduce their personnel, so that their combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced, until they are defeated!
This situation was definitely not what Situ Hongguang wanted to see.

He came here this time, but for the sake of the martial arts examination, how could he bury his future in this wild forest!
He waved his hand violently to signal the soldiers to stop. Situ Hongguang stopped still, thinking carefully, looking for countermeasures.

He once thought about why the former Duke Ying, who was so amazingly talented and brilliant, had almost no defeats, failed in this wild forest?

After personally leading the troops into the forest, he understood the reason.

It's very simple, just because the former Duke Ying only wanted to wipe out the barbarians. This is a huge strategic mistake.

Unless there are hundreds of thousands of troops, or even hundreds of thousands of troops, it is impossible to find the enemy's traces in this dense forest with only tens of thousands of troops.

Therefore, when the troops are insufficient, one should not try to wipe them all out, and have to take risks!

That is, to capture the thief first capture the king!
As long as the leader of Tianteng is captured, the remnants of the [-] barbarians will be nothing to fear!

Thinking of this, Situ Hongguang clenched his fists and ordered, "All speed up, target, deep in the dense forest!"

……

On the other side of the dense forest, a group of soldiers is moving forward in an orderly manner, surrounded by a group of sword and shield fighters, and in the middle is a group of archers, all of them are cautious.

In the middle, Qin Yi walked slowly along with the team, a light flashed in front of his eyes, and a picture appeared, so he immediately shouted, "Stop, there is a trap ahead!"

The soldiers who were walking at the forefront stopped immediately, without any hesitation in Qin Yi's order.

Immediately afterwards, a few soldiers ran out of the team, holding long bamboo sticks, and stabbed them towards the ground.

In just a moment, two grounds collapsed, revealing a trap full of sharp bamboo pieces at the bottom.

Everyone immediately turned their heads and looked at Qin Yi with admiration and gratitude in their eyes!

Even Sun Xingleng, Che Yuankai and others looked at Qin Yi in shock, astonished as heaven!
Even though this situation happened several times, and Qin Yi had given seven or eight warnings, until now, they still feel incredible and full of curiosity, not knowing how Qin Yi found out.

If it is said that Qin Yi was able to find the traces of the barbarians because of his eyes like a falcon, then why did he find the stationary trap?
In this regard, Qin Yi has always smiled without saying a word, and did not answer.

Everyone just regarded it as a stunt that was not easy to spread, so they didn't continue to ask questions.

"Change to the right!" Qin Yi shouted loudly.

According to Qin Yi's instructions, many soldiers bypassed the trap from the right side and continued to move forward.

When passing by the huge trap, Qin Yi glanced inside, frowning slightly.

He knew that the barbarians must have found that the assassination was impossible, so they turned to traps.

At the beginning, the soldiers and horses under his command did lose dozens of people because of the traps. Fortunately, he tentatively used the system to find the location of the traps, but he didn't expect it to be possible, so he avoided casualties from continuing to appear.

But the problem is that casualties were avoided, but the speed of the march was greatly reduced, because the continuous detours affected the speed.

It has been six days now, the troops are moving slowly, and the progress of the entire suppression of barbarians has also become procrastinated.

Of course, even if there were no traps to hinder him, if he alone shot and killed dozens of people every day, it would take half a year at the fastest to wipe out the barbarians.

So Qin Yi knew that he had to find a way to solve the battle quickly.

After all, this battle must not be delayed!
Chixinmen wanted to drag Lin Zhan to his death here, so as to increase the power of Panlian bandits.

Therefore, Qin Yi has thought of a way, that is to capture the thief first and capture the king!

Of course, he also knew that the rest of the students must have thought of this method, so he had to do it as soon as possible. After all, there was only one thief leader, so he had to be ahead of the others.

If the leader of the thief was captured first by other students, then he would not be able to become the champion of martial arts just by beheading hundreds of people.

Such a compelling identity must not be taken away by other guys!

Thinking of this, Qin Yi muttered to himself, "System, search for the location of the leader of Tianteng for me!"
