The Cangqiong Mountain stretches for hundreds of miles, and Feng Dingzhong and others are scattered in the mountains, living in no fixed place, and trying to find the truth is like looking for a needle in a haystack. The Western Regions Coalition Army sent experts into the mountains to search and arrest, but they also returned in vain.

Jiang Anyi and Huang Zhu dressed up as dart masters who ran the rivers and lakes, bypassing the garrison of the Western Regions Alliance Army and entering the Sky Mountain for two days, Feng Dingzhong and others did not see it, but they saw a lot of Western Regions troops searching the mountains, it seems that the Western Regions Alliance Army was harassed by Feng Dingzhong and them so much that they had to spend a lot of energy to clear it.

Seeing that the sun was gradually moving westward, Jiang Anyi was a little anxious, Guan Pingzhong and they were going to launch an offensive on May 29, and now it was May 24, there were only five days left, and time was pressing. Jiang Anyi stood still and said: "It's not a way to find it like this, let's go to Baqing Town, Hecheng County to have a look." ”

When I arrived in Baqing Town, it was already the 25th hour, the fields were overgrown with weeds, the whole town was empty, even the roads were infested with weeds, and some people's yards were full of miscellaneous trees. The horse's hooves startled a rabbit, and was shot by Jiang Anyi's arrow, Huang Zhu stepped forward to pick it up, checked it in his hand, and said with a smile: "What a fat rabbit, roast the rabbit at night and eat it." ”

Walking through the stone road in the town with his horse, Jiang Anyi saw that many people's doors were smashed, and the cattle pens and sheep pens were empty, and he didn't know whether they were taken away when they withdrew or robbed by the Western Regions army. The peach pear tree in front of the house and behind the house is full of fruits, a fig is horizontal in front of the horse, Jiang Anyi picked a fruit with his hand, sweet and delicious, if there is no war, it is the season to make honey fruits again.

Feng Dingzhong's house was in the center of the town, the gate fell to the ground, and when he walked into the house, he found that it was a mess, and it seemed that the Western Regions Army had searched for it. Huang Zhu tied the horse and ran outside to pick fruits, Jiang Anyi started to pick up rabbits, and there were tall firewood piled up on the wall under the eaves, and a bonfire was lit on the sand of the martial arts training ground in the courtyard to roast rabbits.

After a while, Huang Zhu came back with a large pile of fruits in his clothes, which were colorful and fruity. The two sat on the ground in the courtyard, untied their wine bags from their horses, and ate and drank as they ate. Jiang Anyi said: "Go into the mountain tonight to have a look, hoping to find Feng Dingzhong and them." ”

Huang Zhu bit a crisp pear, juice splashed, and said vaguely: "Lord, I can't find it during the day, where to find it at night?" ”

"There is a night advantage at night, the fire is easy to find, I have a good eye, if there is a fire, I can see it at night from miles away." Jiang Anyi said. Huang Zhu knew that Jiang Anyi's spiritual sense was amazing after practicing the Inner Strength Mental Technique, even after he practiced the Mingyu True Skill, he also became deaf and clear-sighted, and reacted more quickly than ordinary people.

At the beginning of the year, Jiang Anyi and Huangzhu climbed the Qishi Peak in the west of Baqing Town, the Qishi Peak rose from the ground, the mountains rose and fell at the foot, and the extreme eyes were not blocked. It's just that the waning moon is dark, and the mountains are covered by trees and vines, and it is very difficult to find the abnormality.

Jiang Anyi's eyes shot a fine light, and he looked carefully towards the mountains and forests under the peak, the mountains and forests at night were very quiet, and occasionally one or two birdsongs came from afar, which was poignant and harsh. Nearly half an hour passed, and Jiang Anyi found nothing. It's normal to think about it, if it was so easy to find the abnormality, Feng Dingzhong and the others would have been found by the Western Regions Alliance.

"Lord, you see it looks like there is smoke." Huang Zhu pointed to the northwest direction.

Jiang Anyi looked at it, and sure enough, he saw a faint white mist a few miles away, and the white mist was blown by the wind and quickly disappeared. There are many pools in the mountains and forests, and it is not surprising that there is a little fog, but Jiang Anyi did not make any useful discoveries, and the dead horse was a live horse doctor, and he took the yellow pillar to touch the direction of the rising fog.

Looking at the mountains and running dead horses, the mountains and forests are undulating up and down, and when they come to the place where they find the white fog, most of the hours have passed. Along the way, Jiang Anyi paid attention to the traces on the ground, his eyes were keen, and he really found some clues. It was already a deep mountain, and few people came except hunters, and the grass on the ground showed that people were walking by, and there were those branches that stretched out haphazardly to the side, and if you looked closely, you could find fallen leaves and broken branches. Jiang Anyi was secretly happy, and it seemed that he had found a trace.

"Whoosh, whoosh" a few times, several sharp arrows flew out of the bushes, urgent and ruthless. Jiang Anyi guarded against the hidden arrow, and as soon as the bushes in front of him moved, he had already noticed it, and his palms raised his true qi and turned into a violent wind to knock the sharp arrows away. "Stop, I'm Jiang Anyi, the assassin of Huazhou", Jiang Anyi was afraid that the other party would not know what the official position of the envoy was, he had served as the assassin in Huazhou for many years, and the soldiers and the people were more familiar with the title of the assassin.

Jiang Anyi and Huang Zhu did not move, waiting in place, after a while, there was a "rustle" sound, and a black shadow stood up from the bushes on the left, dressed in black clothes, with pot ashes on his face, except for the crystal light in his eyes, he completely blended in with the night.

The man bent his bow at Jiang Anyi, and walked forward slowly, the faint moonlight sprinkled on Jiang Anyi's face, the man walked outside Zhangxu, and shouted happily: "It's really Lord Jiang, brothers, it's Lord Jiang." With this shout, more than a dozen figures appeared from the surrounding grass, shrubs, and tree tops, all of them with black faces and smiling faces.

"Hello Lord Jiang", "Lord Jiang, why are you here", "I will say that Lord Jiang will not forget us", and Jiang Anyi was surrounded by warm greetings. Jiang Anyi looked at the faces at the bottom of the pot, and couldn't tell who it was at all.

The man who appeared first came to his senses, raised his sleeves and wiped them on his face, and said with a smile: "My lord, I am Zhao Daliang, the Zhao Dasheng who lives next to General Feng's house, you think of me." ”

"Zhao Daliang, it's you, I recognize your voice, this face is smeared with pot ash, and the more it is smeared, the blacker it is, where can I tell it." Jiang Anyi said with a smile, he remembered Zhao Daliang, the one who complained after drinking.

"My lord, I'm Zhang Xingtian", "I'm Hong Wazi", everyone screamed, and the birds on the trees were frightened and flew around, and the cries came far away in the dark night. Jiang Anyi made a silent gesture and asked, "Is General Feng nearby?" ”

Zhao Daliang said with a smile: "In the col in front, General Yong is also there, and General He is at General Fu, more than twenty miles away from here." ”

"Fu Xiangyi, is he okay?" Jiang An said with joy. Fu Xiangyi is the commander of the Annan Tun army, he is cautious, Jiang Anyi has a good impression of him, this time the Western Regions Coalition Army entered the customs quickly, and many troops did not have time to withdraw, but Fu Xiangyi escaped.

Zhao Daliang said: "General Fu also has more than 1,000 people under him, and he was with us a few days ago to destroy the garrison of the Western Regions outside Yiding County. My lord, this is not a place to speak, let me take you to General Feng. ”

Let the others continue to hide, Zhao Daliang took Jiang Anyi inside, and asked in surprise as he walked, "My lord, how did you find us?" Spies from the Western Regions have searched several times but have not found us. ”

"I saw a puff of white smoke, you only cook at this time?" Huang Zhu took the lead.

Zhao Daliang said: "Cooking at dawn is easy to be discovered, and you can only cook when it gets dark." We lit a fire in the cave, and the smoke drifted around along the gaps, so it was not easy to see, but the firewood was too wet. ”

Along the way, Zhao Daliang learned the song of birds and frogs, Jiang Anyi heard the sound of breathing in the grass and trees, and nodded secretly, Feng Dingzhong's station was heavily guarded, and it was difficult to get in. After walking for more than a quarter of an hour, he came to a mountain col, and the sound of water "whooshing" came, Jiang Anyi didn't see the light, where Feng Dingzhong was hiding.

Zhao Daliang smiled and learned two bird calls, only to see that a curtain was lifted not far ahead, and the red fire light came out. Zhao Daliang walked over with Jiang Anyi, and Jiang Anyi found that it was originally a cave, and the entrance of the cave was covered with a curtain made of thick vines, and there was no abnormality outside at all.

Jiang Anyi stepped into the cave, and immediately felt a wave of heat rushing towards his face, someone at the entrance of the cave was defending with a knife and a gun, and someone recognized Jiang Anyi and shouted in surprise: "Lord Jiang, why are you here?" Walking more than ten steps all the way, the cave suddenly opened up, the smoke was filled with noisy people, Jiang Anyi glanced at it casually, there were at least more than a thousand people inside.

Feng Dingzhong came out when he heard the news, and Jiang Anyong shouted from afar: "Brother, why are you here, nothing happened." Feng Dingzhong stepped forward to salute, and everyone hugged Jiang Anyi and walked towards the open place. There were not only soldiers in the cave, Jiang Anyi saw many men, women and children, it seemed that the people who came to take refuge with Feng Dingzhong saw Jiang Anyi coming, and they stood one by one, with anticipation in their eyes.

Jiang Anyi and a few old men said a few words, and let everyone disperse, it seemed that the food in the cave was just cooked, more than a dozen cauldrons were fragrant, and the people in the cave lined up to serve the rice. Jiang Anyi nodded and said, "It seems that General Feng governs the cave with military regulations, and it is difficult for you to manage these people in an orderly manner." I heard that you have 3,000 soldiers here, and where are the others? ”

Feng Dingzhong responded: "Scattered among dozens of caves of all sizes, this cave is the largest, accommodating more than 1,600 people, and there are about 700 soldiers. How did you find this place? ”

As soon as Zhao Daliang said about the smoke, Feng Dingzhong immediately ordered: "Hurry up and put out the fire, I just said that the smoke is too big, and you are not allowed to use wet firewood for cooking tomorrow. ”

Jiang Anyi nodded and said, "I went into the Firmament Mountain to look for you, and I found that there are many people in the Western Regions who are searching for you, and there is no shortage of good hands. ”

Someone brought food, large pieces of bread stacked a foot high, stoneware bowls containing pickled beef and mutton, and some wild vegetables, fruits and melons, Jiang Anyi smiled: "The food is not bad." ”

Feng Dingzhong said with a wry smile: "When I left, I pulled out all the food at home, slaughtered the cattle and sheep before entering the mountain, marinated them into bacon, and occasionally pulled the team out to grab some supplies from the Western Regions, so I barely survived." ”

Jiang Anyi sighed and said with relief: "The army is ready to start a counteroffensive, and I came here for this purpose." ”

Jiang Anyong hurriedly swallowed the cake in his mouth and said with a smile: "Brother, I guess it will start before June, and the people of the Western Regions can't be allowed to harvest the wheat in the field." ”

Jiang Anyi was a little surprised, in his eyes An Yong had always been a child who didn't grow up, but he didn't expect him to guess his intentions preparedly, and even guessed the time of the counterattack.

There was a sound of hurried footsteps at the entrance of the cave, and a man ran over and said, "There is a police whistle outside the mountain, someone has broken in." ”

"How many are there?" Feng Dingzhong stood up suddenly.

"The police post said that there were five or six people, but the people who came were very powerful, and the police post came all the way and was not far from here."

Jiang Anyi got up and said, "It should be that when I came in just now, I alarmed the birds and let people hear the noise, let them in." ”
