Three Kingdoms: Starting from zero, a wealthy party

Chapter 118 Discovery of the Spy Team
Neither of them dared to speak, Zhao Xin ordered again: "Everyone get on their horses and set off."

Everyone got on their horses one after another, turned their horses and galloped towards the upper reaches of Lake Baikal.

The [-] people under Zhao Xin's management were divided into four teams, and each team had its own patrol area. After discussion, they decided to check it first, and they all gathered here after half an hour.

After patrolling for a while, it was already noon. Everyone proposed to take a break, and Zhao Xin agreed.

A team leader suggested with a smile: "How about going to a cave, roasting the deer, and having a full meal for everyone?"

Zhao Xin nodded, looked around here, pointed to a cliff in front of him and said to Lu Laoliu and Hao Li: "When Master Han Yang saved our tribe, he hid in a cave on the hillside in front of you. Take a look, as punishment for shooting a deer in the morning!"

The two dared not resist, so they dismounted and ran towards the cliff on foot, while the rest of the soldiers sat down by a stream extending from Lake Baikal, drinking water and resting on the spot.

Hao Li has been complaining, "It's obviously the deer we shot, so don't eat it if you have the ability, and say you're punishing us, it's just too much deception."

"Okay, stop nagging. Lu Laoliu felt that Hao Li was nagging too much, and got bored, so he scolded him."

"I'll forget you if you don't speak, I haven't settled with you yet! How did you speak when the captain asked, and you planted the blame on me, you are really a brother." Thinking of what happened in the morning, Hao Li became even angrier.

But at this moment, Lu Laoliu suddenly covered his mouth, pointed to the cave in front, and said nervously, "Look, what happened in front?"

The Xiongnu scouts rested in front of a clear stream. They chewed dry food and drank the cold stream water. They stretched their necks and looked towards the cliff from time to time, expecting the return of Lu Laoliu and Hao Li.

If they found the cave, it meant they could light a fire and roast venison.Delicious venison must be much better than the dry food and water in their hands. They are full of expectations for the delicious venison in their hearts.

At this moment, two black figures appeared in the fog in front of them. Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, the soldiers stood up one after another and entered a state of alert.

Seeing Lu Laoliu running back with Hao Li in his arms, Hao Li was covered in blood and was almost in a semi-comatose state. Captain Zhao Xin was startled, and quickly stepped forward to help Hao Li and asked, "What happened? How did you get hurt like this?"

"We met soldiers from the Dingling tribe in front of the cave. Brother Hao realized that he was a step too late, and was shot by a secret sentry hidden on the hillside, so he was seriously injured."

Zhao Xin's face became serious when he heard that, soldiers from the Dingling tribe appeared here. They didn't act by the lake, why did they go to the hillside.He asked again: Can you see how many people there are on the other side?"

"At that time, I was anxious to escape with brother Hao, so I didn't pay much attention. I don't know how many there are, but I probably saw a dozen of them."

Zhao Xin quickly changed his mind, this should be a patrol of the Huns, and there were about 50 or 60 people on the other side.But now that they have discovered Yang Li and He Laoliu, they will definitely not let them go, and they should be on the way to pursue them now.

Zhao Xin immediately ordered: "Everyone get on your horses and get ready to fight!" Everyone got on their horses one after another. Lu Lao Liu pointed at Hao Li worriedly and asked, "What will he do? We can't leave him alone, right?"

Zhao Xin took a look at Hao Li's injuries. He was shot by an arrow in his left shoulder, but he had already applied hemostatic powder, and the bleeding stopped.Zhao Xin said: "He can't die now, sixth son, it's not too late, you take him back to the tribal army for further healing!"

Lu Laoliu nodded, and carried Hao Li onto the horse, and he also got on the horse, urging the horse to run south.

Zhao Xin kept watching them until their figures disappeared from sight, then got on his horse, led the rest of them to run northeastward, made a big circle, and slowly approached the hillside, ready to ambush.

They were more familiar with the surrounding environment. When they all came to a high ground, Zhao Xin ordered everyone to distribute around and observe, so that they could have a clear view of the situation on the grassland.

After a while, a soldier got up from the ground and said in a low voice: "Captain, I saw them. There are about [-] people just to the south of us. Everyone is looking around, as if they are looking for something." ?”

Zhao Xin's thoughts turned sharply. If the opponent only had 50 people, he could fight. They have 18 people here now. With the method of ambush, they can kill at least 50 people.He immediately called the crowd forward and said to them: "There are [-] people on the other side, shall we do it?"

Everyone showed excitement, but a team leader was a little worried: "I'm afraid they think the same, but we are eaten by them."

"I think this kind of situation should not happen. They have been living in the upper reaches of the lake. We are more familiar with the terrain here than they are. And now we know their situation, but they don't know us. We can use tactics to ambush them , and more importantly, we need to get intelligence about the enemy from the prisoners of war."

Everyone nodded and agreed to kill them. Zhao Xin said with a smile: "I think they are looking for Lu Laoliu and Hao Li at the moment. We can take advantage of this and set a trap to catch them all."

The team they met was a spy secretly sent by Jin An, with a total of 50 people.Their task is to detect the movement of Han Yang's army on the grassland.

Just now, when they were resting in the cave, they encountered two Hun soldiers, and the secret sentry hiding on the hillside shot one of them.

These two Xiongnu soldiers were very important to them, and Jin An could learn about the deployment of Han Yang's army from their mouths.This team of spies was determined to find the two Xiongnu soldiers, but they were also very careful. If they encountered not only two soldiers, but Han Yang's army, then they would be doomed.

The 50 people were divided into a team and marched southward cautiously. The only thing that was certain was that the two Hun soldiers did not ride horses, but ran on foot. Presumably they should not have traveled very far, and they might be hiding nearby.

At this moment, a spy in the team suddenly saw two Hun soldiers, one was covered in blood, and was supported by the other to run to the northwest. He pointed to their backs in surprise and shouted, "I found the , there they are!"

All the soldiers in the team immediately became excited, and rushed to chase the two. They were all riding horses, very fast, and they were very skilled in equestrianism. But no one shot arrows, and they planned to capture the two men alive.
