Chapter 224: It's Coming!
The group walked slowly along the rugged path. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info Qin Shuhuai ordered that no matter the rocks on the road or the branches on the road crossing the road, they should not be moved, try to maintain the original appearance of the path, and only when they can't get over can they move the obstacles on the road. In addition, the people of the Loess Banner were the last, and they skillfully covered up the traces of the brigade passing, so that the road remained as original as possible, and even if it was partially damaged, it could only be thought to be the traces of individual herb pickers.
Seven or eight miles of mountain roads, the whole team walked cautiously for a long time, and did not arrive at the ambush site until evening.
Qin Shuhuai looked around, this was the depths of the valley, the grass and trees were vast, and the shrubs more than one person tall and the evergreen coniferous forest provided excellent cover for the ambush.
The two thousand original Jizhou garrisons were all scattered at this time and inserted into the two halls of the Jianghe Gang. Many ordinary gangsters of the Jianghe Gang were promoted all of a sudden, and they all brought more than a dozen "junior brothers" of officers and soldiers.
And Zhang Xiao, at this time, had been promoted to Qin Shuhuai's deputy general, and more than 3,000 people, including the Jizhou garrison, were all under his command. He was not idle for a moment, and after arranging the camp, he immediately took a dozen generals of Pi Gou, Lai San'er and the former Jizhou garrison to investigate the terrain in this area in order to determine the best ambush location.
The Red Fire Banner and Loess Banner of the Demon Sect acted on their own, and they took out various tools to carefully survey for a long time, and also selected their respective ambush locations.
At this time, it was already dark, and after the whole army had found its ambush position, they had dinner on the spot. According to Qin Shuhuai's order, no one is allowed to light an open fire, and naturally they can't bury the stove for cooking. So in the cold mountain wind, everyone could only gnaw on the cold and hard dry food.
After that, Qin Shuhuai took Meng Wei again, took advantage of the night to carry out light work, and stepped on the branches to the valley mouth to act as a secret sentry.
There was nothing to do all night, and the Jiannu army did not come, but this was also expected by everyone.
Early the next morning, Houtu Banner continued to work. This time, however, they did not make a fuss about the trail, but surveyed the surroundings of the ambush. The brothers of the Jianghe Gang saw the Loess Banner for the first time, and when they saw that they had all kinds of strange tools in their hands, they were a little curious and asked what they were, but none of the people from the Thick Earth Banner paid attention to them.
The people of the Loess Banner cut down a lot of trees on the back of the mountain, and cleared a lot of rocks, some of which were relatively large, and were polished into the shape of a ball by the Loess Banner, and then transported to various ambush points.
At the same time, they also scribble on paper. The people of the Jianghe Gang couldn't understand it, and the people of the original Jizhou garrison couldn't understand it, so they didn't ask anymore.
While the Houtu Banner was busy working, the Red Fire Banner was not idle. They went around collecting dead branches and forming them into big balls. In addition, this time they also took out round things, which were made of metal with holes in them and a wire of fire in them. The people of the Red Fire Banner were a little easier to talk to, and after repeated questioning by everyone, they finally revealed that this thing was called "Thunderbolt." ”
After a busy day, when the sun went down, Houtu Banner gave the head of each ambush position a map, which clearly marked where to retreat after the ambush and what terrain to pay attention to when retreating. At this time, everyone realized that the original Houtu Banner was to find a way back for everyone, and they all admired it incomparably.
The Red Fire Banner is also busy. In each of the ambush positions came twenty or so men of the Red Fire Banner, each of whom carried large bags and small bags, and a dozen of them were made of balls made of dead branches.
On Zhang Xiao's side, taking advantage of the fact that the Jiannu army had not yet come, he first pulled the team to the back of the mountain to practice ambush tactics. The gang members of the Jianghe Gang were extremely proficient in this set at this time, but the original Jizhou garrison was extremely unfamiliar and even undisciplined. Zhang Xiao also showed no mercy, pointed out the weaknesses of these soldiers when they acted, and bluntly denounced that this would drag everyone down. Coupled with the constant sneering of Lai San'er, who has always been cheap, more than a dozen of the former Jizhou garrison have quit!
The brothers are usually short of pay and have no intention of practicing, but if they are drilled up to you mud legs who are bastards, they will immediately give an order to their old subordinates, and whoever does not seriously practice and lose the face of everyone will be beaten. Although these soldiers were scattered, the general prestige of these generals was still there, so no one dared not listen.
Zhang Xiao actually asked them very simply, that is, let them master the timing of rushing down the mountain, and at the same time, they could maintain a certain formation after going down the mountain and not mess up. Coupled with the hand-in-hand guidance of the original Jianghe Gang, they have also made rapid progress.
One day passed, two days passed, and by the third day all drills and additional activities were stopped, and the brigade was all in the predetermined ambush position.
Because if the Jiannu army wants to sneak through Jizhou, it is likely to be in the past few days.
Qin Shuhuai and Meng Wei sat on the top of a big tree, quietly looking at the valley mouth through the dense leaves. They stared at that position for three days.
The north wind was blowing, Qin Shuhuai couldn't help but shrink his neck, thinking that it would be great if he could play with his mobile phone under the quilt at this time. This year's winter has been particularly cold, and the northern region is even more bitterly cold. The mountain wind in the forest was already violent, and he was sitting on a high place, and the cold wind was even more desperate to pour into his neck, even if he had deep internal strength to keep out the cold, he was still shivering from the cold. It's really a high place and it's cold.
Originally, he could not have used it, so it was okay to let Meng Hu come. But this ambush was related to the whole process of his own change, and he couldn't calm down, so he decided to come in person.
Now that everything is ready, it depends on whether Huang Taiji will sneak over Jizhou like in history!
Qin Shuhuai silently calculated again in his heart, with Huang Taiji's character and the situation that Houjin is facing now, what other possibilities does he have except to sneak through Jizhou. The end result was that he couldn't think of anything else Huang Taiji could do!
At 10 o'clock in the afternoon, the sun was particularly dazzling, but it also dispelled some of the cold and added a touch of warmth.
Qin Shuhuai looked up at the distance, and suddenly his heart shook.
I saw a long black shadow slowly coming on the horizon in the distance!
Almost at the same time, Meng Wei also swooped to the tree where Qin Shuhuai was, and said in an excited tone, "Lord Qin, Jiannu is here! Jiannu is here!"
Qin Shuhuai was also full of blood, and his heartbeat kept accelerating!
Huang Taiji, Dolgon, Daishan, Mang Gurtai, Yuetuo, Azig, Zilharang, Abatai, Haug......
I, Qin Shuhuai, am waiting for you here!
