Chapter 197 Unbelievable
I say this because I confirm it from the sound.
"Our counter-ambush was very successful!" Murong Chen said lightly.
It’s no wonder he knew that, because if they failed, a lot of people would be rushing towards them by now.
He also said that if the ambush failed, saving one's life was the most important thing.
Because he can't afford to lose in terms of manpower.
He must conserve his strength and try to use it at the most critical moment.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he saw Tu Eryong's warhorse coming towards him not far away.
The person sitting on the warhorse was naturally Tu Eryong.
Seeing this, Murong Chen and Sun Bizhi looked at each other and saw relief in each other's eyes.
At the same time, they all knew that Chen Wanruo played an indispensable role in the success.

The barbarian Tatar military camp.
"What did you say?" Di Yangzi asked in disbelief.
"General, this time we ambushed you..." The spy would not dare to continue with the following words even if he was beaten to death.
But even if he didn't continue, the three brothers Di Yangzi could guess what he would say next.
"How many people came back alive? Let them come to see this general!" Di Yangzi ordered again.
It would have been better if he hadn't said this. Once he said it, the spy didn't even dare to breathe.
Seeing this, Di Hezi suddenly had an ominous premonition.
Even Dibazi, who is usually carefree, realized that something was wrong.
"Speak! Are you mute?"
Seeing that the spy was trembling but didn't speak, Diba tried to hold it in, but finally couldn't help but yelled at the spy.
"Report...Report to the Deputy General, no...no one has returned alive."
"What do you mean no one came back alive?" Di Yangzi asked in disbelief.
He had led troops in battles for many years, and for a moment, he really didn't understand what the spy meant.
It was Di Hezi who realized something was wrong and asked the spy, "Are you saying that they were all wiped out and no one survived?"
After hearing this, the spy dared not speak again.
But when he met the murderous looks of the three brothers, he finally nodded cautiously.
Seeing this, the three brothers fell silent.
You looked at me, I looked at you, and apart from seeing surprise in each other's eyes, our mouths opened and closed, and we couldn't utter a word.
They have been fighting for many years, but when have they ever heard of a complete annihilation of an army?
No matter how badly you lose, there will always be one or two survivors. When has it ever been like this?
What's more, they were still somewhat confident about this ambush.
It’s not that I feel sorry for those elite soldiers, but I just can’t believe it.
It was hard to believe that their ambush would fail so completely this time.
"Brother, we still underestimated Murong Chen." After a long time, Di Hezi spoke.
"You are worthy of being the King of War. Even if you are sitting in a wheelchair, you can easily command thousands of troops." Di Yangzi said sinisterly.
This was their first round, and they ended up in complete defeat.
It seems that he indeed underestimated the enemy.
People thought he didn't have much ability since he was sitting in a wheelchair, but the reality gave him a heavy blow.
"How many people are sent to ambush this time?" Di Hezi asked his second brother Di Bazi.
This time he only proposed the strategy, but the specific arrangements were still made by Dibazi.
"More than 1,300 people, and the people I send this time are all experienced veterans." Dibazi said gritting his teeth.
Originally, he was very confident in this battle, thinking that even if they could not take Murong Chen's life, they could still hurt some of his foundation.
They didn't expect that they would be ambushed.
With such a result, even if Dibazi did not go into the battle personally, he could probably guess why they lost so badly.
This result would only happen if we were ambushed.
"Third brother, what do you think about this?" Di Yangzi asked Di Hezi again.
"Brother, as you said, we still underestimated Murong Chen. Now, all we can do is wait until they reach the border and engage in a real battle."
Hearing this, Di Yangzi also expressed his agreement.
After all, they have the upper hand in terms of numbers.
If they fight at this time, they will basically win.
"But, didn't my third brother tell you last time? This mountain is also a good place for an ambush. Why don't we try it again?" Dibazi said unconvinced.
"Second brother, at this point, have you not yet recognized the facts? What we can think of, Murong Chen must have also thought of. Otherwise, why do you think we were ambushed this time? It is because Murong Chen has already grasped our thoughts very well."
After hearing what Di Hezi said, Di Bazi could only nod angrily.
No matter how unwilling he was, he had to admit that his third brother was right.
Normally, he is the one with the most ideas. Many times when they are at a loss, they rely on their third brother to give advice.
"So what now? What should we do now?"
After thinking about it, Dibazi couldn't help but ask again.
"The only way now is to wait." Di Hezi said helplessly.
If you ask him, he doesn't know what else he can do.
This was not the first time he had fought with Murong Chen. Now that he thought about it, it seemed like he was defeated by him every time.

On the other side, in the inn.
Judging from the time, it should not be the morning hour yet, but Chen Wanruo has already woken up.
Maybe it was because she was more certain about what she was thinking, or maybe it was because she was very tired recently, she slept quite soundly this time.
When he woke up, he went to find Shopkeeper Wu and asked him about Mr. Gu.
As a result, Manager Wu told her that Gu Changlao had left the inn last night.
"Didn't he say anything when he left?" Chen Wanruo couldn't help but ask.
When she asked this question, she was clearly disappointed.
She originally thought that after the heart-to-heart talk with him yesterday, she had convinced him.
It turns out that I was too self-centered.
Thinking of this, Chen Wanruo curled the corners of her lips sarcastically again.
If it were any other time, she might have gone up the mountain to talk to him again.
But now, she obviously didn't have time.
