On the wilderness and snowfield, after the victory, the people in Luoyan Valley pushed six carts and fled quickly. Things went so smoothly that many people didn't expect. Only Gao Muqing Liang Qi and a few backbones of the people in Luoyan Valley knew the inside story, and most of them didn't know the details at all, so in their opinion, today's operation was really smooth.

While a group of people evacuated quickly, their emotions were in a state of enthusiasm, after all, no one died, and they only paid the price of a few minor injuries and retreated, which was a clean and neat operation. However, half an hour later, a sudden news cast a cloud over everyone's hearts.

Not long ago, when Gao Muqing returned to the woods to give the order to prepare for action, there were still four ten-person teams that had not arrived. The absence of these forty people actually has little impact on the entire operation, and Gao Muqing will not delay the operation in order to wait for these four teams. But after the attack was successful, when everyone evacuated the town and walked more than ten miles north, they encountered a belated team of only six people left on the way. They were one of the four squads that didn't make it.

And from their mouths got a shocking news. These squads, which did not arrive at the planned time, were not lost, but encountered the officers and soldiers who blocked Funiu Mountain, and were surrounded by officers and soldiers in the southwest of Yexian County. The news made everyone's nerves tense all at once.

What happened was that a team of 10 people was confused in the dark of night, and they rushed straight to a garrison station set up by the officers and soldiers of Ye County in the woods on the side of the official road. When this ten-man team fled, they actually led the officers and soldiers to expose the remaining three teams that had entered the path. The three squads were surrounded by more than 200 officers and men in a field at once, and were forced to engage the officers and men. This team was also affected, but they saw the opportunity very quickly, and when they heard the news, they fled as soon as they could, and they were lucky enough to escape. But when they fled in the night, four out of ten were left behind and disappeared. In this case, they can't turn around and look for it, so they can only rush to the assembly place to report to the owner of the village before making a decision.

The arrival of this news made Gao Muqing angry and annoyed. Originally, before departure, an order was issued to these scattered squads to be cautious, and to withdraw to the mountains as soon as the officers and soldiers found their tracks. And keep enough distance from each other to avoid one team being spotted and harming the others. However, not only did they fail to do this, but they could not even remember the locations of the posts and cantonment stations of several officers and soldiers that they had explained in advance, which led to this incident.

The impact of this incident was not as simple as the loss of more than thirty brothers, according to the last six brothers to arrive, when they fled, the three brothers were surrounded by enemies several times their size. In other words, the thirty brothers must have been unlucky, and it is likely that they were captured alive. Although the current group of brothers in Luoyan Valley are all licking blood from the knife, they are absolutely trustworthy. But no one can guarantee what will happen to them when they are captured?

Many are brave on the battlefield, but they are immediately betrayed by torture or other means of inducement. There is no guarantee that the captives will not confess the actions and destinations of the people in the valley. What's more, there is also a backbone in these three teams who knows all the contents of the plan, He Qi, the master of the four villages. If He Qi confessed, then the officers and soldiers would know all about their own numbers and the purpose of their actions.

In terms of taking 10,000 steps back, even if these brothers swear to the death, they will not confess anything. Officers and soldiers will also suspect the purpose of these dozens of bandits coming out of the mountain. You must also be able to think that in addition to these dozens of people, there must be other mountain bandits out of the mountain. They will suspect the purpose of the bandits' large-scale attack on the mountain, and they will also inform the county garrisons to intensify the search of the mountain roads and wastelands in the southeast and southeast of Funiu Mountain, and organize a large-scale sweep. And this will pose a real threat to the people who will rush back to the mountains after they succeed.

This is a situation that should not be taken lightly. After learning the news, Gao Muqing immediately convened key candidates to discuss countermeasures. On the dim, icy snow field before dawn, the team was forced to stop in the bitter cold wind, waiting for the final order.

"Master Dazhai, in my opinion, we must immediately break it into pieces and continue to divide into various teams to sneak back to Funiu Mountain. Our huge team of nearly 300 people marched on the road, and as soon as the morning dawned, it was a huge target, and it was easy to be noticed. The team did not agree to be discovered. Yuan Lang, the master of Sanzhai, put forward his suggestion.

"Yes, Brother Yuan is right, we have to break it into pieces, we can't go on like this. As soon as the morning dawns, we have nothing to hide. Liang Qi also said when he heard this.

Gao Muqing frowned and said, "But, if we break it into pieces, what will happen to the materials of these carts?" ”

"Lord Dazhai, you can't ask for these things, you can bring some weapons and arrows, but the armor is too bulky, even if the brothers each wear one, it is even more inconvenient to walk. At this moment, it is necessary to disperse lightly and return to the mountain quickly. If you can't take anything with you, you will be on fire. The master of Sanzhai said in a deep voice.

Gao Muqing nodded slightly, and looked at Lin Jue, who was silent beside him.

"Master Fang, what do you think?" Gao Muqing asked.

In order not to reveal his identity, Lin Jue assumed the pseudonym Fang Lin. took Fang Dunru and his surname together. After all, he regards Fang Dunru as his father, and it is also appropriate to use Fang's surname. In order to cover up Lin Jue's identity, Gao Muqing told everyone that this was the military advisor he had invited, and he made an appointment to meet together in this operation. Although this explanation is a bit far-fetched, everyone didn't think much about it, after all, what the owner of the village said was a certainty, and there was no need to think about it.

Lin Jue looked displeased, glanced at the few people in front of him coldly, and said in a deep voice: "Breaking the whole into pieces is self-defeating, and it is absolutely impossible." ”

Yuan Lang, the master of the three villages, suddenly blushed, and then he heard Lin Jue say: "Abandoning these armor, weapons, bows and arrows is an extremely stupid suggestion. Risked so much to get these things, and to lose them? So what is the purpose of your operation? Do you know how much these things weigh to you? That's what you have to do in the mountains, you know? ”

Gao Muqing also blushed, she suddenly realized that Lin Jue had taken such a big risk to plan this operation, which was to get this batch of armaments and materials to the mountains and help her gain a firm foothold in the mountains. However, he almost agreed to give up this batch of materials just now, and Lin Jue's hard work was ignored.

Lin ...... Master Fang, don't be angry, isn't this being discussed? It is now possible that we will encounter officers and soldiers on the way back to the mountain. There has to be a plan for this. Gao Muqing said softly.

Several backbones were a little puzzled, the master of the village seemed to have a low voice towards this Fang military division, as if he was begging for him, which was really a bit strange.

Liang Qi was naturally clear in his heart, so he also arched his hand and said: "Strategist, if you have an idea, we will listen to you." ”

Lin Jue sighed and said in a deep voice: "The situation is indeed urgent, and judging from the current situation, encountering officers and soldiers is almost a sure thing. I figured that I would encounter officers and soldiers soon after dawn. But do you think it's a good idea to spread the march? If the officers and men knew about our plan, they would inevitably think that we would return to the mountain by dispersing and retreating, after all, you did this before. However, as long as the officers and men are not stupid, they will send small groups of soldiers and horses to scatter and set up points to watch and search. If you look around, there are only some undulating hills, and when the sun comes out, can you escape the eyes of people in the four fields? If the officers and soldiers get the news, they will unite with the county defenders and guard all the roads leading to the mountains and the mountains and fields. This is not difficult, just send a dozen squads to disperse to intercept and reconnoitre, and if traces are found as far as the eye can see, you can warn and summon troops to come and surround them. Unless we have the ability to be invisible, we don't want to pass safely. Besides, haven't you learned the lesson of your thirty-man squad last night? Another meaning of breaking into pieces is that officers and soldiers can only wait for death, because of the disparity in manpower, there is no power to resist. If you want to break it into pieces, I don't think half of the people will be able to return to the mountains. Most of my brothers are going to die here,"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and they looked at each other, and they were all shocked and silent. Maybe what Lin Jue said is a bit alarmist and exaggerated, but when you think about it, it is not unreasonable. The reason why the strategy of breaking up into parts when I arrived in Qingtai Town yesterday was successful was because I spent most of my time walking at night. In particular, when we arrived at the blockade area of the officers and soldiers thirty or forty miles outside the mountain, it was just when night fell. With the cover of night, it was possible to go so smoothly. Even so, four other squads were unlucky enough to crash into the net.

And now, since it is assumed that the officers and soldiers are very likely to have known the information and grasped the information, how can they allow their own side to turn into a squad and move forward? It was obviously a sunny day after dawn, the sun was shining, and everything could not be hidden, even if the incarnation team walked in batches from the mountain path, then I am afraid that most people would be discovered. Once discovered, if the number of people is dispersed, I am afraid that there is only a dead end.

"There are still people who want to discard armor, weapons, bows and arrows, don't you know that these things are the guarantee that we can return to the mountains smoothly. Equipped with these things, our 300 people are even better equipped than these officers and soldiers. We really encountered officers and soldiers, and we at least have the strength to fight. At this time, the most important thing to do is to immediately let everyone change into armor and weapons, carry bows and arrows and crossbows on their backs, and walk in a team. Everyone can work together to return to Luoyan Valley smoothly, understand? Lin Jue shouted loudly.

"Yes, what are we afraid of, we also have three hundred brothers. We also have armor, bows, arrows, and blades, and we are not inferior to officers and soldiers. Even if you encounter a fight, it may not be a loss. It's not impossible to fight a bloody way back to the mountain. Liang Qi clapped his hands and shouted.

"That's right, I forgot that we robbed so many good things, just in time for the brothers to equip themselves."

"Exactly, give the officers and soldiers a good taste, let's go back to the mountain."

The crowd shouted.
