Chapter 52: Ambush
The name Feihu Gorge is very grand, but it is actually a gorge between the two mountains.
Halfway up the mountain, Wu Nian stood on a large green rock, watching the road below the mountain, with a look of satisfaction on his face.
"There are dense trees here and it is very hidden. We waited for the rabbits to shoot them with bows and arrows in the first round. Then we rushed down and started a hand-to-hand combat. It is not difficult to kill twenty people."
Wu Nian looked around at the iron ox standing under the rock, Wu Yuan and others bowed and said seriously: "This is my business. But I have troubled you. I, Wu Nian, swear to the heaven that if there is any damage among you, I will definitely let you have food and clothing. If you die in battle, I will take care of your family."
This statement actually did not include Wu Yuan, but said it to Tieniu and the others.
This action was his personal grudge and had nothing to do with the court. Tieniu and others helped him with loyalty.
He must also be loyal.
"Even if Lord Xiaoqi doesn't say it, we know that you will take good care of our youngest person." Li Yong said with a smile.
Wu Nian is obvious to everyone. After following him, he has no worries at all.
"Let's go." Wu Nian nodded, jumped off the big rock, took everyone to the nearby cave, and lit a bonfire to keep warm.
Stay here tonight.

"Hurry up, hurry up."
In front of the Cheng Mansion, it was very lively. Under the instructions of the housekeeper, the maids and servants were loading gifts onto a large cart.
Soon the cart was filled, and a slave skillfully tied it with a rope and pulled it tightly.
After the work was done, the housekeeper turned around and reported. Cheng Gao and his wife Wang quickly walked out. The couple got on another carriage.
“Depart.”
With the order of the follower, the coachman waved the horse whip and drove the carriage to the north. There were many people in the follower, including eleven soldiers from the family.
"Madam. This time I met my father-in-law. You should tell me and ask him to lend me five soldiers." Cheng Gao turned his head and looked at his old wife and begged.
This is the New Year.
Cheng Gao was like a ray of light on his back and could not sleep at night. So much so that his two dark circles accumulate deeper and deeper, and he gradually loses weight.
The root of all this is Wu Nian, the idiot.
It became his nightmare.
His father-in-law was the small flag of Nianshan Fort, and he had some power and raised a team of family soldiers.
Wang is Cheng Gao's pillow, how could he not know Cheng Gao's thoughts? She sighed and said, "Husband. You want to send your family soldiers to kill Wu Nian. But although your family soldiers are loyal, it is difficult to protect the problem. It is really terrifying that you kill the small flag with the general flag. If the court pursues the matter, it will be a death penalty."
She couldn't understand how her husband did it.
He had a fuss with his own small flag to this extent.
Send killers...
He could think about it.
"I can't care so much anymore. I just want to kill him. I feel afraid when I keep this person. He dares to kill Li Ding quietly, and dares to kill me. I send a killer to kill him, but he becomes a friend of the killer, which is a weirdo."
Cheng Gao was exhausted and wanted Wu Nian to die wholeheartedly.
When he died, the nightmare disappeared. He felt relieved.
"Okay." Wang thought for a long time and nodded gently. Although it is a death sentence that the general flag kills the small flag once exposed, it is not a serious crime to destroy the family.
She had nothing to do with his own life.
"Thank you, Madam." Cheng Gao was overjoyed. He ignored the old couple and hugged Wang and kept saying: "I have already decided on the plan. My father-in-law sent out five families, and I sent out eleven families. When Wu Nian went to the mountain to hunt, he forced him to kill him and then destroyed the corpse."
"Do whatever you want." Wang broke away from Cheng Gao's arms and sighed.
Cheng Gaore's face was pressed against his cold butt, but he was not angry at all. Instead, he was quite excited. In a few days, in a few days, I will be able to get rid of Wu Nian.
Kill the nightmare in my heart.
Feihu Gorge is not far or near Beishan Fort, and the team quickly arrived near Feihu Gorge.
On the hillside.
Wu Nian led everyone to ambush. The surroundings were lush and the hidden nature was very good. They wore uniform black clothes and were masked.
Each person has a bow, ten arrows, and a knife.
In such a battle, there is no room for big guns and spears to be used.
This road is an official road, but few people walk it.
In Beishan Fort, there are many people who have never been out in their entire lives. Now at the beginning of the year, there are no merchants walking, which is suitable for fighting.
As time passed, Wu Nian felt that his hands and feet began to get cold. Although it was spring, the weather in the north was really cold, almost the same as in winter.
Suddenly, Wu Nian's ears moved, his spirit was cheered up, and his eyes were sharply looking at the corner in the distance. A team of about twenty people poked out and headed north.
"It turns out that there are eleven soldiers, and there are also Changsui, the coachman." Wu Nian glanced like an eagle's eyes, and quickly glanced at the team's configuration.
Wu Nian looked back and raised his hand. Then he quickly pulled out an arrow from the arrow pouch, bent his bow and aimed it slightly.
With a "dong", the arrow in his hand attacked an opponent's archer like lightning.
First solve the opponent's combat-capable personnel.
Almost at the same time, the dong sounded five times.
The others also shot arrows in their hands.
After Wu Nian shot the first arrow, he pulled out another arrow without stopping, bent his bow and shot at another target.
"ah!!!"
The marching team suddenly became in chaos. The archer who was aimed at by Wu Nian had no reaction at all and was shot in the neck.
He screamed and instinctively reached out his hand to cover his neck. But the neck that was shot through by the arrow could not be covered at all. Blood flowed out from the gaps in his fingers like a spring.
He stared in horror and looked ahead until his body's strength disappeared, then he fell to the ground and gradually lost his breath.
It has been a long time since the last time I killed a tiger, and Wu Nian's bow and arrow skills have improved in a qualitative manner.
Others are not doing well.
In the first wave of arrows, Wu Nian and others shot six arrows, but only shot and killed four people. One arrow fell into nothing, and two arrows shot the same person.
The sudden attack caught the convoy completely off guard. Cheng Gao's family soldiers even did not respond at the first time.
Beishan Fort was too far from the Mongols, and they had almost no combat experience.
It was not until the second wave of arrows shot that they realized and quickly found a place to hide. However, five people were shot and injured by Wu Nian and others.
In the blink of an eye, the eleven soldiers of Chenggao were almost wiped out.
"How could this happen!!!!" Cheng Gao, who was in the carriage, just lifted the curtain and took a look, and no longer had the courage to look at it.
His face was as pale as paper, and his body was shaking like a sieve.
