Strategists Reincarnation Death Match - Chapter 99 Death Of A Behemoth

The only people not on Baron’s side who knew of this was the Bair fighters, they knew everything that was going on in this tournament. The final battle for Baron’s group was underway, they had to take down Bai Qi no matter the cost.

The reinforcements had been instructed by their commanding officers to not expend too much effort during the day prior to their forced march to another battlefield. All the reinforcements arrived within half a day’s time and they got to work immediately. Laying siege to Bai Qi’s camp in four directions. They had to do this task as fast as they could. The main reason being that there was no doubt that the enemies that they had left behind would have surely realized what had happened and would be making their way to Bai Qi’s camp. If not, Bai Qi would have to be fool to not send an sos out to his comrades who were nearby.

Since this was still the dead of night, Bai Qi was unable to estimate the amount of soldiers that had been laying siege to his camp. Even for the most experienced of strategists, getting a feel of the battlefield was difficult to do in the darkness, that’s why attacking at night was risky for both the attackers and the defenders. It was hard not only to determine the amount of attackers but also to guess wrong would prove fatal to the survival of an army.

Bai Qi was a very headstrong fellow, and would never ask for help from his teammates. That was why even after he realized that the number of people attacking him contained at least the entire army of Meng Tian’s force he still decided to take on this challenge on his own. He was no fool either, he had been in a number of night raids so he knew how the generals were thinking when they decided on this risky plan. Going by the amount of people and weaponry that they brought with them, these invaders had wanted to finish before any of Bai Qi could get his forces back in working order.

One of the four pillars of the Yellow Wang faction would fall for such a simple minded trick. He had a command chain that was nearly impossible to break and soon enough, he had all his soldiers once again under his control and thus the battlefield. Bai Qi took everything onto his arms and guided his massively disadvantaged soldiers to where they would be the most useful.

Back on Baron’s side, the 4 main armies and the few others that followed along spent all their time and every man and gun available to them to throw at Bai Qi’s camp. They weren’t doing this all willy nilly though. Their plan was to continuously wear down their enemies until they were no longer able to resist, then they would send in the rest of the reinforcements from the Bair fighters, the most skilled soldiers under them at the moment. The fighting continued until dawn and Bai Qi’s men were actually managing to push back all the forces sent in to take them down.

Truly this Bai Qi was no ordinary foe to deal with. However, with the fatigue setting in, they would not be able to keep this up forever. The fighting lasted until midday and still the soldiers of Bai Qi was managing to hold on. This was a mix of adrenaline and Bai Qi’s excellent counterattacks. Their limit was approaching and everyone knew it. By this point nearly all the aircraft on both sides were wiped out and it became mostly a ground based attack on both sides.

Baron and his men had received news that Li Mu and Wang Yi had finally realized what had happened and had rallied all the forces around them to go and rescue Bai Qi. However, they took their time because they truly believed that there was no way that Bai QI would actually be defeated by Baron’s group even if they had a numerical advantage. In response to this their strongest soldiers were sent in to deal the final blow to the already dead army that was Bai Qi’s. They had one day left to kill Bai Qi before his reinforcements came.

In the next few hours an upset was to be had. The seemingly on the back leg Bai Qi had actually sent away assassins in the dead of night to deal with the strategists that had put him in such a dire situation. Almost all of Baron’s faction mates were killed in a simultaneous ambush and only Baron, Meng Tian, and Yue Fei was able to make it out alive. These assassins were by no means any ordinary assassins. They were strategists that specialized in killing strategists like Baron.

Luckily, Baron, and Meng Tian was with Yue Fei at the time and Yue Fei spent close to no effort in dealing with the intruders, this could not be said of the others. Enraged that they were careless, Meng Tian sent the rest of his forces in to finish off Bai Qi. Eventually, just as Bai Qi’s reinforcements were in sight of the battlefield, Bai Qi was brought to Meng Tian tied up and bowing before the 3 of them.

(MT) “Looks like this is it Bai Qi, any last words?” Meng Tian asked the once proud Bai Qi.

(BQ) “Hah, like hell I do. You guys were just lucky that I underestimated your reinforcements. Going by my estimates, I took out nearly three quarters of your overall army isn’t that right? You guys are finished. You might as well just release me now since you will have no chance of keeping me in your care.” Bai Qi said with a high head.

(MT) “Release you? That’s where you guessed wrong Bai Qi. We don’t care about the tournament. We only want you. You killed my brother and Guan Yu, did you really think we care about this tournament this much? Oh no, we’re going to be killing you. EVERYBODY! Please step back 100 meters”

WIth this order, all the soldiers retreated and now only Meng Tian was left by Bai Qi’s side. Meng Tian put on a blindfold on Bai Qi and the look on Bai Qi’s was one of pure denial. With Bai Qi blindfolded, Meng Tian grabbed 3 grenades, unpinned them and tossed it around Bai Qi. Then he turned around and left with an explosion roaring right behind him.

(MT) “Did you see what I did? Meng Yi.” He smiled.
