Early the next morning, Zhang Han once again sent dozens of teams of 2,000 men out to search for food and grass.

Even if he found nothing yesterday, he would continue to go out to look for food.

If there is no place nearby, then go to a place farther away.

The Central Plains is known for its large population, with villages everywhere. Wang Buxu could move ten or one hundred villages, but how could he move a thousand villages?

"Hasn't it been discovered?" A Qianren asked nervously.

"No, I didn't dare to get too close. I followed him to a valley. I couldn't see the situation inside, but I saw deep car prints on many surrounding roads!"

"Car imprint?"

"Car imprint?"

The two thousand people looked at each other, and suddenly an unbearable excitement emerged.

There were civilians coming and going, and there were a lot of car marks on the ground.

Doesn't this clearly tell them that there are a large number of civilians gathered in the valley?

There are people, which means there is food, which means that they finally don't have to run in vain.

It is different from the excitement of two thousand people.

The soldiers' behavior can be described as varied, some are excited, some are indifferent, some are unhappy, and some are expressionless.

"Old Suntou, to be honest, have you figured out something again?"

Someone saw Lao Suntou depressed, with a gloomy face, and his mood couldn't help but hit rock bottom, and asked in a low voice.

Lao Suntou glanced at the other party: "Do you think I'm the king?"

"If you are not hungry, then who am I?"

"Yes, who am I?"

Lao Suntou: "..."

Is that what I mean?

ah?

But you can't make any sense with these people.

So, I could only express my opinion in a low voice.

"It can't be said that it has been calculated. The so-called calculation is actually to deduce everything that is happening now and then draw a conclusion..."

"What do you mean?"

"Old Suntou, you'd better say it directly, I don't understand..."

"Yes, it is……"

Lao Suntou looked at everyone with a confused expression. He really wanted to shut up and let them guess for themselves.

"For example, if we left the camp yesterday, after Wang Buxu knew about it, with his ability, he could definitely predict that we would definitely come here today."

"???"

"Old Suntou, are you saying there is an ambush ahead?"

"What can I do?"

"How about we run?"

"Where to run? Are your legs faster or their crossbows?"

While they were talking, the team had already begun to enter the valley. In fact, it was not really a valley. It was just a bulging slope on both sides, which was very shaky and impossible for people to climb up.

There are indeed many car marks on the ground, which are very deep, indicating that the things loaded on the car are very heavy.

If you move out urgently, you will never empty out everything in your home. The only things you need to bring with you are the only clothes and all the food.

'Whoosh...'

Without giving anyone a chance to react, a hail of arrows fell from the sky instantly.

For a time, the unprepared Qin soldiers were killed and injured instantly.

At the same time, bursts of angry curses came from some hidden places in front of the valley, and then, more than 500 soldiers suddenly stood up from the ground or behind bunkers, and quickly lined up to prepare for battle.

At this point, how could the Qin army not think that they were ambushed?

"Withdraw! Withdraw quickly..."

Only then did the two thousand men react and quickly shouted to retreat.

There are at least a thousand people on the opposite side. Don't you still know what the fighting ability of a small number of people like yours is?

Once more than 500 people from the front are charged, they will have no chance to escape even if they want to.

Lao Suntou hesitated, the situation developed beyond his imagination.

Of course, the main reason was that their brains were moving too slowly. As soon as they thought of this, they were ambushed.

And looking at the current situation, it should be that the archers hiding in ambush did not control the timing well. Because they released arrows in advance, the people in ambush in front had to quickly come out and line up, changing from defense to active attack.

Although based on their combat effectiveness, there is no difference between defense and offense.

But the biggest problem is that the Qin army has just entered here and only needs to retreat a hundred or so steps to escape to the plain.

By that time, it would be impossible to pursue him again.

At least, there will definitely be many people who can successfully break out.

But Lao Suntou was tired.

He had long noticed that the recent situation seemed to be getting more and more unfavorable to them, so he also thought of escaping, but he never had the chance.

And right in front of us seems to be the best opportunity.

He did whatever he thought of. On the way to retreat, Lao Sun looked around with his small eyes and soon found a suitable place.

It is relatively remote and no one will take the initiative to go there.

The main reason is that Lao Suntou is worried that his corpse will be regarded as a real corpse. What if someone steps on his body?

Old arms and legs cannot stand such a big stimulation, so it is necessary to find a safe place.

"Eh? Old Suntou, why did you lie down? Let's go quickly, it will be too late if you don't..."

Lao Suntou looked at the little guy who was shouting at him with a look of despair. His name was Liang. It was said that his father gave him this name in the hope that he would have food to eat in the future. The meaning was similar to names like Wang Buxu and Zhang Buyi.

, and this is also the characteristic of most people's names in this era.

This little guy is too simple, and he is a good follower in peacetime. But in times of war, although he is loyal enough, he can kill people at critical moments.

The desperate old Sun looked at the grain and shouted in despair: "I have sprained my feet and can't walk. You run quickly..."

"No, you get up quickly, I will carry you..." Liang shook his head, Lao Suntou was usually pretty good to him. When he was in Lishan, he always arranged some easy tasks for himself. He deserves this kindness.

remember.

If he left Lao Suntou behind and ran away, he would never forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"With me, neither of us can run away. Run quickly..." Lao Suntou was moved to tears. You are carrying me on your back. Do you want me to block your arrows?

"I don't……"

"Get down quickly!" Lao Suntou pulled out a handful of food in despair, cursing in his heart that he was a fool.

It is very safe to hide here alone, but if there are two people, Lao Suntou can't guarantee it.

Therefore, after a few words of persuasion, Liang still had no intention of leaving it alone, and there was nothing Lao Suntou could do.

You absolutely cannot continue to reason with him at this time, as that will make your goal too obvious.

Either tell him to leave quickly, or lie down and die like himself, and at the same time pray in his heart that they must not be discovered before the battle is over.

"Old Suntou, you..." Liang was a little confused. Even if he chased me away, shouldn't he have pushed me? Why did he reach out and pull me away?

Could it be that you want to use the stronger one?
