Chapter 734: Scouting
Then Liu Yin instructed Ah Jian: "Ah Jian, you take people to investigate these three passes, five villages and Gu Shotling, and be sure to find out the military configuration and defense situation of the Di people. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Ordinary reconnaissance tasks are completed by scouts in the army, but the scope of these reconnaissance is so wide and difficult that it is obvious that ordinary scouts are very difficult to compete, and Liu Yin urgently needs this information, so he can only send Ah Jian there.
Ah Jian's ability is beyond doubt, when he was in the snowy mountains and meadows, it was Ah Jian who went to explore the way, in that treacherous environment, Ah Jian walked three or four times more than ordinary people, and made great contributions to the Shu army out of the snowy mountains and meadows. This time to explore Gushu Mountain, Ah Jian is the best at all.
After accepting the order, Ah Jian only selected three or four entourage, the reconnaissance mission is different from the march to fight, the people are not how expensive but fine, Ah Jian's selected people are naturally very good, equipped with a full set of weapons, Ah Jian immediately left the Shu army camp and walked towards the depths of Gushu Mountain.
The winding path is daunting to many people, but for Ah Jian, it is like covering the ground, and Ah Jian deliberately did not wear black night clothes, but chose earthy yellow clothes, wearing this color of clothing, it can completely blend with the background color of the earth, people can not distinguish.
Soon, Ah Jian and they approached the vicinity of the first pass, according to the information provided by the Qiang people in the north, this pass should be the Black Wind Pass, but this pass is very simple, only one or two zhang high wall, all of which are built with mottled stones, on top of the stone wall, is a fence made of thick tree trunks, and even the bark has not been cut off.
However, the Black Wind Pass looks very simple, but the geographical location is very dangerous, stuck in a mountain pass, quite a little bit of a pass, the taste of ten thousand people can not be opened, the Black Wind Pass is in the position of the wind outlet, the strong wind is gathering dust, raging, standing in front of the pass, people can hardly open their eyes, the Black Wind Pass is really as close as its name.
Ah Jian and the others withstood the fierce storm and slowly approached the Black Wind Pass, due to the frequent strong winds, most of the soldiers guarding the pass were also shrunk in the barracks, and there were almost no figures on the city, although the visibility was extremely low, Ah Jian still quickly figured out the geographical location of the Black Wind Pass and the configuration of the defenders. Since the soldiers were cowering in the barracks, Ah Jian could only estimate the number of defenders based on the size of the barracks.
On the Black Wind Pass, there are not too many defenders of the Di people, probably about 3,000, but the terrain here is dangerous, and there are 3,000 Di soldiers guarding it, and it is not easy to break through the Black Wind Pass.
Ah Jian drew a topographic map of the Black Wind Pass, and did not stay in the Black Wind Pass for long, although there are cliffs on the left and right sides of the Black Wind Pass, but this does not bother Ah Jian and the others at all, they crossed the mountains and mountains, and soon disappeared in the whistling black wind, from beginning to end, the soldiers guarding the Black Wind Pass did not find any abnormality.
Next, Ah Jian led the team to continue to go deep into Gusha Mountain and conduct field reconnaissance of Chishui Pass and Baisha Pass.
Chishui Pass is close to the Black Wind Pass, after coming down from the big slope behind the Black Wind Pass, there is a Chishui River, the water flow is turbulent, the river water is dark red, so it is named Chishui River. Chishui Pass is located on the opposite bank of the Chishui River, firmly locking the ferry.
Don't be afraid of the turbulent flow of the Chishui River, but it is not difficult for Ah Jian and others, crossing the river during the day is easy to be discovered by the defenders, Ah Jian waited until the night, and a few of his men jumped into the Chishui River, swam across the river with arms, and quietly boarded the opposite bank.
The last of the three passes is called Baisha Pass, the reason why it is named Baisha Pass, because on the slopes of the left and right sides of the pass, there are white quicksand, if people step on it, it is almost difficult to walk an inch, and there are countless sand nests, stepping into it, it will completely swallow people.
The first two passes Ah Jian did not take much effort, but when he crossed the Baisha Pass, he still delayed a lot of time, the white quicksand, if not careful, will eat people, Ah Jian searched for a few days and nights, only to reach a secret passage through the Baisha Pass, taking advantage of the dark night, quietly crossed the Baisha Pass.
And then went deep into the Gu Shooting Ridge, and made a key investigation of Qi Wannian's nest, although in this process, A Jian and others were also in danger several times, but with their superb martial arts and extraordinary courage, they circled in the heart of the Di people, and they were haunted and easy to play, and they got detailed information about Gu Shooting Mountain without losing one person.
On the way back, Ah Jian took another way, and by the way, he touched the situation of five cottages such as Niushou Village, and returned to the Shu army camp smoothly.
Liu Yin has a lot of trust in Ah Jian's ability, although Ah Jian has been gone for many days and there is no news, all the generals are worried, thinking that Ah Jian may suffer an accident, only Liu Yin has been very calm and calm, because he firmly believes that Ah Jian will definitely return safely.
When Ah Jian returned to the camp, all the generals were amazed, although Ah Jian was in rags, his eyes were bright, and there was a confident and calm smile on his resolute face.
Liu Yin also smiled, from Ah Jian's eyes, he naturally knew that Ah Jian was worth the trip.
"Young master, it is fortunate that you are humiliated." Ah Jian arched his hand at Liu Yin. For so many years, Ah Jian has always regarded himself as Liu Yin's servant, although his exploits have long qualified him to become a high-ranking and high-status official, but Ah Jian has politely refused Liu Yin's opportunity to give him a promotion many times, and made up his mind to only be a general by Liu Yin's side to protect Liu Yin's safety and solve problems for him.
Liu Yin's friendship with Ah Jian has long gone beyond the boundaries of master and servant, more often, Liu Yin regards him as a brother who intersects with his life, a confidant who can take on heavy responsibilities, and this time, Ah Jian once again lived up to Liu Yin's trust.
"Good, hard work!" Without too much praise, Liu Yin just bowed slightly, and everything was only in silence.
Ah Jian quickly took out a few drawings from his backpack and put them on the table in front of Liu Yin, and said: "Young master, here is the detailed map of the three passes and five villages of Gushu Mountain and the Gushu Ridge of Qi Wannian's old nest, and the defense layout and troop ratio of the Di people are also on it, please check it out young master." ”
All the generals were originally discussing in the tent, but at this moment, when they heard that Ah Jian had obtained detailed information about Gu Sheshan, they immediately surrounded them, eager to take a closer look.
Liu Yin smiled, and asked Ah Jian's drawings to hang up, and Ah Jian gave everyone a detailed explanation. (To be continued.) )
