I'm a marquis in Datang

Especially where they are, they are at least a quarter of an hour away from where the cottage is located, and if you take a rough look at the location of the cottage where the fire is lit, it will take at least a quarter of an hour to walk there because of the winding mountain roads.

There was no one around, so the soldier quickly removed two finger-thick ropes from the cloth bag on his back.One end of the rope was firmly tied to the thick tree trunk, and the other end was thrown directly from the mountain.

There are three such ropes in total.

When the rope fell down, Xiao Yuanqi directed the soldiers to climb up with the help of the rope.

This is much easier.

It is very easy for soldiers to climb one by one by themselves, and it will be very difficult, but it is not difficult for soldiers to climb with ropes.

Because of the ropes, the two hundred soldiers climbed the mountain in less than half an hour.

Then, lurk in the mountains.

Sitting in the woods, Xiao Yuanqi looked towards the campsite in the distance, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.What he has to do now is to get closer to the camp a little bit, so as to facilitate his actions tomorrow.

Just go to the cottage, but don't be careless.

Care must be taken.

Once the news is leaked, and the people on the mountain know his whereabouts and want to make a surprise attack, it will never be possible again.

"Wushan."

Xiao Yuanqi gave an order.

"exist!"

A young man in his early twenties strode out.

He is Wu Shan.

Under Xiao Yuanqi's command, Wu Shan's most important task was to gather information.Because although this kid is young, he is good at hiding and scouting for news.

Xiao Yuanqi ordered: "Take the two brothers under your command and go from us to the village. Check carefully

Clearly, what is going on along the way, we must find out whether the people in the cottage are setting up guards along the way, this is the key. "

"understand!"

After Wu Shan got the order, he greeted the two scouts under his command and left quickly.

Because you can see the light of the cottage, and not long after leaving the mountain forest, you have already reached the road on the mountain.So the group went out of the mountain forest smoothly, so they quickly touched the direction of Dazhai on the mountain.

Time passed little by little.

Xiao Yuanqi waited quietly in the mountains.

Although it is cold on the mountain, the soldiers in this army are all equipped with down jackets and vests. There are down jackets inside and thick robes outside, so they are very warm and don't feel cold.The only problem is that the cold wind is blowing, and the face is a bit uncomfortable.

Xiao Yuanqi sat quietly, with anticipation in his eyes.

During the day, when he was waiting at the foot of the mountain, he had already received the news that Xue Rengui had killed Shen Biao.Xiao Yuanqi lamented Xue Rengui's martial arts in his heart, beheading Xue Rengui with a single shot was indeed formidable.It's a pity that the bandits on Jinshan are extremely stubborn. They didn't completely lose their fighting spirit because of Shen Biao's death, so much so that they still have to fight to destroy the Jinshan bandits.

Xiao Yuanqi was quite surprised that Du Qi actually came, but more importantly, he wanted to cheer up and start a war.

Du Qi came to the battlefield in person.

Xiao Yuanqi couldn't lose this battle.

He can't make any mistakes.

Xiao Yuanqi sat and waited silently, unaware of the passage of time, half an hour had passed in the blink of an eye.According to this section of the journey, the three of Wushan should have returned, but up to now, none of them have returned, and the expression on Xiao Yuanqi's face inevitably became a little irritable.

Because he was worried about the situation of Wu Shan and others.

Xiao Yuanqi issued an order to make the two hundred soldiers under his command ready to go to war at any time.Once Wu Shan is exposed, their situation may also be deduced, so while Xiao Yuanqi was waiting, he was also ready to go to war.

Another quarter of an hour passed.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed back from the edge of the forest and reported, "General, Wu Shan is back."

When Xiao Yuanqi heard this, his spirits immediately lifted.

Can be considered back.

If Wu Shan would never come again, Xiao Yuanqi concluded that there might be something wrong with Wu Shan.

Not long after, Wu Shan came to Xiao Yuanqi's side and reported: "General, when we went to the location of Dazhai, we found that there were two pavilions in the direction of going down the mountain to Dazhai, and there were soldiers inside. Standing guard, there are two soldiers in each pavilion. It is because of the sentries at these two places that we are a little slower on the way to and back. We have to go down the mountain to get close to the stronghold, and we have to deal with the people in these two pavilions first. Otherwise, we It will be very troublesome to pass on the road.”

Xiao Yuanqi said in a deep voice after hearing this: "Is there a chance to deal with the other party?"

"Have!"

Wu Shan answered firmly.

Xiao Yuanqi said: "Say!"

Wu Shan said: "The road we go down the mountain has bushes along the way, and the surrounding area is extremely dark. Even if there are torches burning in the pavilion, there are not many torches, and the darkness that can be dispelled is about ten steps. Even if you go south Part of the road is within the range of ten steps, but as long as we hide in the dark and do not enter the range of the fire, we can use the crossbow arrows in the dark to shoot directly the people in the pavilion. In this way, we will also Can go south smoothly."

"Not bad!"

After Xiao Yuanqi heard it, a bright smile appeared on his face.

Wu Shan's suggestion is excellent.

Wu Shan said, "General, when shall we act?"

A gleam flashed in Xiao Yuanqi's eyes, and he said: "If we want to take action, we must act immediately. Once the sky is bright, we will have nowhere to hide. If we want to make a surprise attack south then, we can only go south openly. We were held back. So we acted immediately, and shot the people in the pavilion with a crossbow arrow after getting close to the opponent, and we were able to take it quietly and approach."

Wu Shan said: "The general is wise!"

"set off!"

Xiao Yuanqi didn't stay any longer, and quickly left the forest with the people under his command, and began to go south along the official road.When everyone went south, they were silent, and when they walked, their steps were extremely light, so that they would not be discovered if they were all walking together.

Chapter 610 The grace of knowing

Knowing grace

Xiao Yuanqi led a large group of people on the road, but this march only stopped for a quarter of an hour.Because looking from a distance, you can already see the pavilion with torches to disperse the night.

There are two bandits guarding it. Once someone comes down from the mountain and the guarding bandits find out the news, they will immediately call Jin to warn.As long as the news spread, the bandits on the mountain would respond immediately so as not to be attacked by surprise.

Xiao Yuanqi glanced over roughly, and there was still about a hundred steps away.

He raised his hand to signal everyone to stop.
