Chapter 169: Burning the Thieves
Suo Chao keenly found that this place is suitable for ambushes, and it is indeed a good place for the other party to set up ambushes here. V mīŧ
A small group of scouts immediately galloped forward, and disappeared into the long forest in an instant.
The deputy vanguard hurriedly said: "Suo Chao, it's safe, let's move forward." â
Suo Chao whispered a few words to Qin Ming, Qin Ming's eyes lit up and nodded again and again, and then he ran towards the cavalry team.
The infantry was in front, the cavalry was in the rear, and the army advanced rapidly. On the general march, the cavalry is in front and the infantry is behind, but today Suo Chao is doing the opposite. Let the lieutenant and the hundred generals have doubts: will this vanguard officer fight? Don't send us all to the bandits, do you?
At this moment, I suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me like popping beans, and the sound of thousands of horses galloping on the ground was deafening, and the Chinese soldiers couldn't help but be shocked, what is the situation? Bandits attacking us from behind? Want to make us dumplings?
A thousand Sui troops immediately drew their bows and arrows on their galloping horses.
Thousands of rockets were fired in a salvo.
"Rocket again!"
"Bow and arrow ready!"
What's next? There is no need for Qin Ming to say it anymore! Countless soldiers suddenly ran out of the woods, not regular soldiers, of course, but minions in different clothes! So you're hiding here waiting to attack us, Commander High! A fire will burn you out.
The Sui army, which was full of confidence, immediately aimed at these minions and shot with a bow, thieves and soldiers have always been natural enemies, not to mention that the Sui army was attacked here last time, so the Sui army's new hatred and old hatred were all added together to shoot every carved arrow, which made this group of ambushed thieves cry wolf and howl countless dead and injured.
The Sui army now knows why the vanguard officer used such a formation, it turned out to deal with the thieves who were in ambush, but how did the vanguard general know that there was an ambush here, and didn't the scouts raise flags to report safety?
The soldiers were all competing for the lead, and everyone was brave, Qin Ming laughed: "Sons, kill with this commander!" "The mace swept through thousands of armies, and the minions that were beaten howled miserably, like harvested crops that were beaten away in pieces.
Qin Ming roared: "Rats go slowly!" Your grandfather Qin Ming is here. "Lead the army and chase it.
"It's okay!" Qin Ming laughed.
"Are you familiar with the terrain ahead? What if there is an ambush by thieves? The lord ordered me to wait and fight steadily, and not to rush in. Suo Chao pointed ahead, "Look! The front is a mountainous area, which is not conducive to cavalry combat, what should the other side do if they use the terrain to besiege our army? If we destroy the adult's plan to suppress bandits, I am afraid that our heads will be sacrificed by the adults! â
Suo Chao breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank you, the eldest brother often says: Brothers work together to break the gold, and the small chessboard ridge will definitely be leveled for us, now, you lead the cavalry to thoroughly investigate the direction of the thieves' retreat, don't give the thieves a chance." â
"The problem is in this wood, it's too quiet here, there isn't even a bird, even if there are tigers in it, there shouldn't be no birds, unless there are a large number of ambushes in it, the birds under it dare not enter the forest, the thieves were ambushed here last time, according to normal thinking, there should not be an ambush here, there are high-ranking people among the thieves, seize people's weaknesses, we thought they wouldn't set up an ambush here again, but he buried heavy soldiers here, if it wasn't too quiet here, I'm not sure there was an ambush here."
When Gao Chong led the army to Guizipo, the vanguard of the Sui army had completely checked the area entering the mountain and cleared out a lot of ambushes.
After a short rest, Suo Chao embarked on the journey again, the cavalry was replaced by crossbowmen, the number of people turned from two thousand to one thousand, the mountainous area is not conducive to large-scale use of troops, it is a good thing that there are many people, the soldiers are not expensive, and Suo Chao's deputy has also increased from one person to three people: Qin Ming, Yang Zhi, and Xu Ning.
The mountain road was already narrow, and a few thick trees were lying across the road, completely blocking the way forward, Suo Chao didn't look at the big trees blocking the road, but looked around.
"Yes!" Ten rattan players were listed.
