Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong

Chapter 166 The Peak of the Pass
Not long after, after galloping for a while.

The travel-stained Lei Xiao and his party of eight finally stopped in front of an extremely narrow mountain pass.

"My lord, this is the pass that the half-orc army passed through."

A rough voice sounded, and the tiger stick bowed and reported: "At that time, my subordinates had conducted a detailed investigation, and this pass was the only one that connected the Demon Shadow Forest where we were, with the half-orc tribes on the other side of the Baibu Mountain Range. through the road."

"It turned out to be here."

Feeling the rough and uneven gravel road, Lei Xiao looked around and took a few steps forward.

At this time, except for the knotweed beside him.

The other six subordinates were already scattered not far away, holding their weapons one after another, watching out for movements around them.

Walking straight into the pass, Lei Xiao, who looked up, noticed it.

This boundary is much more complicated than the unnamed pass on the battlefield before.

Between the steep cliffs on both sides, at the narrowest point, at most two strong men can pass side by side.

Moreover, the temperature inside the pass is obviously much lower than outside, which makes people feel cool and refreshing.

With a ray of sunlight projected in, Lei Xiao found out again.

On the mountain walls in several relatively narrow areas, there are still many white scratches caused by scratches.

Judging from the slightly new traces, it was obviously left behind by the friction between the armor on the body and the mountain wall when the half-orc troop passed by at that time.

"The mountain peaks are like cuts, the walls stand ten thousand ren, and the towering Cui Wei... This place can indeed be called a place where one man guards the gate and ten thousand men don't open it."

Caressing the hard mountain walls around, Lei Xiao couldn't help exclaiming in his heart: "In addition, there are thousands of vines and vines around, it looks like the sky is shining... If it was placed in the previous life, it would definitely be an excellent tourist attraction."

"It's an unexpected reward to see such beautiful scenery."

With a long sword on his waist and leather armor, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and continued to walk deep into the pass.

After walking another hundred meters or so, the front of my eyes suddenly opened up.

What appeared in front of the group of people was a mountain road with a width of more than 50 meters, which was in stark contrast to the narrow area just now.

Looking left and right, on both sides of the mountain road, there are still cliffs that look like a knife.

However, these steep mountain walls are obviously shorter than before, and covered with dense vegetation, it is easy to hide.

"It really is an ideal place for an ambush!"

Carefully observing the surrounding scene, Lei Xiao couldn't help showing a gleam of joy again.

I saw him pondering for a while, and then asked the burly man beside him: "Kumba, have you ever gone up to explore the cliffs on these two sides before?"

"Return to the lord, this subordinate was already around that night, and found two ways to go up. The location is extremely hidden."

Knotweed, with its full perception, responded respectfully while watching the movements around it closely.

"Very good, let's go up and have a look."

Patting the back of the knotweed to express his appreciation, Lei Xiao made a forward gesture to the other subordinates around him.

Guided by the knotweed stick, Lei Xiao walked up the weedy path all the way up, and soon Lei Xiao made a turn around the two cliffs.

"That's right. The terrain is hidden and the road is fairly flat. Not only can you set up magic cannons, but with the help of each other, even first-level subordinates can easily climb up."

Nodding in satisfaction, Lei Xiao's pitch-black eyes flashed a faint sternness, and said to the crowd: "It seems that we have found the best place to crush the boulder hanging above our heads."

After a pause, Lei Xiao, who was standing on the top of a mountain, looked at the depression from a bird's eye view, and at the same time said to the burly man next to him: "Hu Zhang, if we want to carry out an ambush here, what will you do?"

"My lord, the road here is spacious, and it forms a strong contrast with the pass just now, just like the shape of a wine bottle."

Knotweed frowned and thought for a moment, then bowed and replied: "So, if we compare the opponent to water in a bottle, this wide area is the body of the bottle, and the narrow pass is the bottleneck.

Then we only need to completely block the bottle mouth at the moment when the water flows through the bottleneck and is about to pour out of the bottle mouth, and then launch the attack.

At that time, when the water flows backwards, the enemy's formation will inevitably be in chaos, and they will undoubtedly become our shackles. "

"That's right, letting go of the enemy's vanguard first, and making the opponent's follow-up troops mistakenly believe that the surroundings are safe, is indeed the best time to launch an ambush."

Lei Xiao nodded appreciatively, then smiled lightly and said, "However, you still overlooked one crucial detail."

"Oh?"

On the rough face of the tiger stick, there was a hint of puzzlement, and he asked Lei Xiao in doubt: "Please tell the lord clearly."

The other subordinates also had a confused expression. As for Chao Yan, who was wearing a pointed witch hat, she had already focused her attention on the butterflies next to her.

Apart from setting fire, extinguishing fire and eating, this kind of marching and fighting was obviously too complicated for her.

Looking at the bewildered expressions of everyone, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly by using the metaphor of the knotweed just now, refocused his gaze on the road under the cliff, and said slowly: "Then it is naturally the bottle we are in." body area, there is no bottom of the bottle.”

"So that's it! Your lord is wise."

Ye Cang took a step forward, gracefully pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, and said, "Because of our limited strength, even if the ambush is successful, we cannot completely prevent the enemy from retreating. , escaped from the current ambush area, the effect of the ambush will undoubtedly be greatly reduced."

Hearing the sound, all the subordinates around showed a look of enlightenment.

Even Chaoyan nodded with a vague understanding, and although she didn't know why, she always felt very powerful on her pretty face.

"However, it is not difficult to make a strong bottom of the bottle that prevents the enemy from escaping."

Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and pointed to a rocky cliff area not far away that looked a bit loose.

Directly below there is a wide mountain road area. As long as the boulder falls, it will naturally be able to completely block the enemy's retreat.

"Understood, my lord, leave the work of making the bottom of the bottle to your subordinates."

Hu Zhang understood immediately, and saluted Lei Xiao again.

"Very good. In this way, all the problems will be solved smoothly."

Lei Xiao patted the dust on his palms, and said, "Okay, since we already know everything here, then of course, we should take a look at our opponents, or the ones in the bottle. the water."

"Follow your orders! Lord Lord!"

Respectful and orderly voices sounded, accompanied by bursts of bitter wind, Lei Xiao and his party of eight turned into meteors and shot away into the distance.

Only dust particles suspended in the air were left, still floating slowly.
