The fire in the stone room was very bright, the wooden boxes were scattered, and the contents fell to the ground, and everyone saw it clearly, and when they saw the things scattered on the ground, everyone looked at each other and showed surprise.

There were no other things in the wooden box, but dozens of steel knives, piled up on the ground, and under the firelight, these steel knives were all shining with a cold light.

Chu Huan frowned, turned his gaze to the piled up wooden boxes, and said in a deep voice, "Open another box." ”

Fat Liu immediately took two people forward, took out a box from it, split it with a big knife, lifted the lid, the cold light flickered, and Fat Liu had already said: "My lord, this is also a knife!" ”

Chu Huan stepped forward, only to see that the wooden box was indeed a neatly placed big knife.

There are dozens of large boxes here, and one box is calculated according to fifty big knives, which is also thousands of big knives.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside, Chu Huan signaled the soldiers to be on guard, and soon a group of people came in from outside the open stone door, and when the two sides saw it, they all clenched their knives for the first time, and saw that it was their own people, so they breathed a sigh of relief, and a tooth general came out of it, and when he saw Chu Huan, he had already arched his hand and said: "My lord, you are also here?" This secret passage is crooked, let's go around, but here we come! "I was taken aback when I saw the big knives scattered on the ground.

This group of people was not led by Chu Huan, they obviously entered the secret passage from other earth pits, and turned around in the secret passage, but they converged together.

"Do you see bandits?" Chu Huan asked.

The tooth general shook his head: "I didn't even see the ghost shadow." My lord, there are no bandits here? ”

Chu Huan pointed to the sealed wall and said, "There is a mechanism here, they ran away from here!" ”

Fat Liu had already said beside him: "Kill one!" After speaking, he pointed to the corpse not far away.

Chu Huan thought that there was still a corpse here, stepped forward to squat down, and saw a gunshot wound on his left shoulder and elbow, knowing that this person was the guy who was stabbed by his spear.

I searched the man, but found nothing useful.

The tooth general approached and whispered: "My lord, the bandits are still in the secret passage, they can't escape, we can always think of ...... open this stone gate!" ”

Chu Huan frowned, thoughtful, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "It's not good, they want to escape!" ”

The tooth general hurriedly said: "Run? There are 2,000 of us, and they can't escape! ”

Chu Huan ignored it and asked, "Do you know where Pan Lang will be?" Let's get out of here soon, I'm afraid that these bandits will escape from Heishui Mountain if it's too late! ”

The tooth general and the soldiers looked at each other, and they were a little disbelieving, after all, the bandits were all trapped in the secret passage, and the Praetorian Guard had already had countless soldiers coming to the secret passage, and it was really unlikely that the bandits wanted to avoid the search and leave of the Praetorian Guards.

Chu Huan didn't say much, but said, "Leave five people here, and everyone else will come with me!" Without much explanation, he hurried out of the stone chamber, and Fat Willow hurriedly followed with a torch.

Seeing Chu Huan's solemn expression, the tooth general was afraid that he really saw something, so he immediately ordered five people to stay, and hurriedly followed Chu Huan with the remaining seven or eight people.

Chu Huan also remembered the road he came from clearly, hurriedly walked in the secret passage, and finally came to the earthen pit, only to see several soldiers outside the pit facing the entrance of the cave, obviously worried that the bandits would come out of it, seeing that it was Chu Huan, the two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to pull Chu Huan out of the hole, and then pulled the soldiers behind Chu Huan up one by one.

Chu Huan looked around, and saw that there were already seven or eight cave entrances nearby, and there were soldiers guarding the cave entrances, and everyone else must have gone down to the secret passage to chase them.

Chu Huan said loudly: "Where will Pan Lang be?" ”

"My lord, General Pan Lang also went down to the secret passage." A soldier answered from afar.

Chu Huan frowned, didn't hesitate much, and already shouted: "Everyone come with me first, the bandits are going to escape...... ”

Not far away, a man dressed as a lieutenant replied: "The above orders, let's stay here, those bandits can't hide inside, they will come out of here!" ”

"Don't talk nonsense." Chu Huan said coldly: "They won't come out of here." He waved his knife and said, "Come with me!" I didn't care about saying more, but I ran in the direction of the back mountain.

Fat Liu and the others hurriedly followed, and the soldiers guarding the edge of the other pits looked at each other, but Chu Huan was a general after all, since he spoke like this, more than 20 people followed at the moment, but more than 10 people did not comply, and still stayed at the entrance of the cave to wait for the rabbit.

This Heishui Mountain is extremely steep, Chu Huan led people to climb to the top of the mountain, looking down at the top of the mountain, he can already see the frozen Heishui River under the mountain, at this time dawn arrives early, and the ice surface on the Heishui River is also very dazzling in the sky and earth.

Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "Come with me!" "Rush down the hill.

Although this Heishui Mountain is not very high, it is very steep, and it is not easy to go down the mountain, leading thirty or forty people to rush to the foot of the mountain, and there are already several people who have injured their flesh and skin because of falling.

Before he left the mountains and forests, he heard a voice shouting from ahead: "Stop, throw down your weapons, if anyone wants to save their lives, kneel down honestly!" Amid the shouting, dozens of Praetorian Guards dressed in armor and armed with broadswords emerged from behind the rocks below the mountain.

These people are naturally Guo Yang's team of men and horses who are ambushed in the back mountain, in order to prevent bandits from escaping from here, Wei Tianqing specially arranged for Guo Yang to lead 300 men and horses to ambush at the bottom of the mountain, at this time, the Praetorian Guards under the mountain saw a group of people coming down from the mountain, and thought that the bandits were fleeing here, and immediately appeared, and more archers bent their bows and arrows, ready to shoot.

Chu Huan had already said in a deep voice: "It's your own person, don't do it!" ”

They had already rushed to the bottom of the mountain at this time, and the Praetorian Guards who were ambushed here saw Chu Huan and others wearing Praetorian Guard armor, so they collected their bows and arrows, and one person had already stepped forward, it was Li Zongquan, the guard general who had a dispute with Chu Huan.

Li Zongquan saw Chu Huan bringing people down, frowned, and said, "General Chu Wei, what do you mean by bringing people here?" The bandits are not here. He asked, and his face was puzzled.

Chu Huan didn't answer immediately, but glanced over at the river, only to see that there was thick ice on the river, but there was no figure, frowned, and asked, "General Li Wei, can you find any changes here?" ”

"Anomalies?" Li Zongquan sneered: "You really said it, you did find a ...... abnormal movement!" He raised his hand and pointed at Chu Huan and said, "Aren't you just moving?" General Chu Wei, I'm strange, are you killing the enemy or retreating? How do you make it look like a remnant of a defeated general who has been killed by bandits......! ”

Chu Huan said coldly: "General Li Wei, the military situation is urgent, I don't have time to joke with you." Where will Guo Lang be now? ”

Li Zongquan didn't answer, but snorted coldly: "Since you know that the military situation is urgent, what are you doing here?" This is our team in charge, and your duty is to suppress bandits in the mountains, but you are not here to ask if there is any change. ”

Chu Huan said: "General Li Wei, I suspect that the bandits from Heishui Mountain have escaped from here...... ”

Before Chu Huan finished speaking, Li Zongquan had already laughed, looked at Chu Huan playfully, and said, "General Chu Wei, you really haven't fought before, and it's a shame that you said such a thing." On the front line of the back mountain, there are 300 elite soldiers in ambush, and this back mountain is all under our control...... You said they ran away from here, are you talking in a daytime? If they come down from here, they can only turn into corpses, and they will never be able to cross this river ......! His face was full of disdain: "General Chu Wei, I see that you didn't sleep last night, so now you are dreaming, but now you are suppressing bandits, and it is better for you to wake up from this dream." ”

Chu Huan frowned and said, "General Li Wei, sometimes you can't talk full!" ”

Li Zongquan patted his chest and said: "I wouldn't dare to say anything else, but I would have dared to say this, no bandit can cross the river, if the bandit slips away from under my nose, my eyes will be gouged out to you!" ”

At this moment, I heard a sound of footsteps, and a group of people and horses came quickly from the left, but it was Guo Yang, the commander of the ambush in the back mountain, who obviously found something unusual here, and brought twenty or thirty people to hurry over.

Seeing Chu Huan, Guo Yang immediately asked, "General Chu Wei, how is the situation on the mountain?" I didn't hear the sound of killing on the mountain under this mountain, could it be that the sudden attack had been successful? ”

Without waiting for Chu Huan to answer, Li Zongquan had already sneered and said, "General Guo Lang, General Chu Wei is not here to report good news, but to find a ballast." ”

Guo Yang frowned, Chu Huan had already arched his hand and said: "General Guo Lang, the bandits on the mountain are extremely cunning, and they have discovered the secret passage underground, and now those bandits are hiding in the secret passage, and the brothers are also searching in the secret passage!" ”

"Secret passage?" Guo Yang was surprised: "Little mountain bandit, actually built a secret passage on the mountain? ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "They seem to have been prepared, we have injured a lot of brothers...... If they really knew that we were going to attack Heishui Mountain, but they still stayed on the mountain and didn't escape, the last general felt that they must have a way out! ”

Guo Yang is an experienced general, Chu Huan's expression is solemn and his words are concise, he also knows that something is wrong, and hurriedly said: "General Chu Wei, you brought people down the mountain to come here, did you find anything?" ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "The last general is not sure, but ...... The last general felt that the gang of bandits really had a way to escape, and it must be on the back mountain. ”

Li Zongquan couldn't help but say: "Chu Huan, don't be untrustworthy and say something unfounded. ”

Guo Yang glanced at Li Zongquan sideways, and said in a deep voice: "General Li Wei, when is it, and you still have to argue?" Since General Chu Wei said this, he naturally has his ......! Xiang Chu Huan said: "General Chu Wei, don't blame General Li for saying this." We have 300 people in ambush here, and we don't dare to blink an eyelid, just staring at the mountain to see if there are bandits who have slipped through the net, so far, not a single bandit has come down from the mountain, let alone let a bandit get away ......! ”
