Chapter 214 War Games Deduction (Part 1)
The five people on the other side had already launched a small-scale battle. Since their forces were about equal, none wanted to give the others an opportunity. Whoever initiated the war first might be attacked by the rest, so the skirmishes were still just exploratory.
On Ye Yinzhu's side, the other four people continued to press towards his position. The armies by the mountains had already begun to climb, while the two armies outside the forest stopped after entering a portion of the woods, their backs against the plain. Tactically, this allowed them to weaken Ye Yinzhu's war chess troops in the forest, and if the battle turned disadvantageous, they could retreat quickly across the plains—it was undoubtedly the best choice. Ye Yinzhu's troops seemed to have fallen into a large encircling pocket.
