There was a lot of noise, horses neighing and mules clucking.
Xue Rengui looked at the scene in front of him and said sternly: "How about I lead a few people to clear the way, the convoy is in the middle, and the young master leads the people to the rear. If something happens, the convoy forms a circle to protect itself, and the Meishan Mountain Guards keep a distance of three miles. Three miles is enough for the war horses.
Increase your speed and you can arrive in time. Being too far away is not advisable, and being too close can easily expose you."
"You mean not to expose the mountain guard and attract the enemy to take action?" Qin Huaidao asked.
"That's right, with the mountain guard accompanying us, the enemy should not dare to take action and will wait for the second or third time. Instead of being in the dark and being on tenterhooks every time, it is better to attract action and decide the outcome in one battle." Xue Rengui said solemnly.
Qin Huaidao immediately laughed and said: "We both thought of it together, but I will lead the guards to clear the way, and you will lead the Qinjiazhuang Guards in the rear. Once there is danger, immediately organize the convoy to form a formation to protect ourselves. The Qinjiazhuang Guards are all
It would be better for inexperienced teenagers to have a time buffer."
"What the young master said is, be careful on the road." Xue Rengui agreed.
"The enemy may let go of the vanguard and choose to attack the coachman. It is also dangerous on your side, so don't be careless." Qin Huaidao reminded. Seeing that the convoy was ready, he immediately rode up and shouted: "Let's go -"
"Let's set off!"
"Safety--"
The voice was high-pitched and resounded throughout the wilderness.
The motorcade moved slowly and moved forward.
At dusk.
The cold wind is biting and the wilderness is silent.
The convoy came to a hilly forest area, and beyond there were mountains and dense woods. Qin Huaidao led the way, his sharp eyes constantly scanning the front, and saw a group of birds chasing and playing in the air, flying towards the woods ahead, looking like they were about to fall.
, but turned and flew away.
If the birds don't fall, something is amiss!
Qin Huaidao pulled the reins of his horse and stopped, staring at the woods ahead with vigilance. The guards followed him, and one of them said curiously: "Young Master, did you find anything?"
"Have you noticed anything unusual ahead?" Qin Huaidao asked.
Everyone shook their heads and looked ahead curiously without saying a word.
"The birds are flying in fright, fearing an ambush." Qin Huaidao warned.
Everyone was a little more vigilant, and one of them asked: "Young Master, the birds may not have been frightened just now, but they may also want to go somewhere else. A single bird is returning to its nest. It is difficult to judge when a group of birds are playing."
"It is indeed difficult to judge a group, but eventually one or two will fall into the branches to rest. There was not one just now. They turned around very resolutely, as if they were frightened. Caution is the best. Uncle Wu, please go back and inform the convoy to rest where it is and take over the command.
Form a round formation to defend and ask Xue Rengui to come over." Qin Huaidao said calmly, if something goes wrong, he would rather make a mistake than let it go.
One of the guards went back to deliver the order.
Qin Huaidao turned over and dismounted, motioning for everyone to sit down where they were, as if they were tired and resting. There was a dense forest in front of them, and it was reasonable to rest before entering the dense forest. Even if there was an ambush, it would not arouse suspicion.
"Young Master, do you want me to take a detour and go up there to have a look?" a palace guard suggested.
"Don't worry, wait a moment." Qin Huaidao waved his hand, but stared at the suspicious place ahead, and then looked at the uneven mountains and dense grass around him. It would not be difficult to go up in a roundabout way.
After waiting for a while, Xue Rengui hurried over: "Young Master, did you find anything?"
Qin Huaidao said in a low voice: "The birds are flying in fright. I suspect there is an ambush, but I'm not sure. You can follow me to infiltrate and take a look. If there is one, pick him up. If there isn't, it doesn't matter. It's just the time for the convoy to take a rest."
Xue Rengui agreed wholeheartedly, and several guards became anxious and asked for a fight. One of them even said: "Young Master, I will bring a brother over to have a look. We are familiar with this kind of thing."
Sneak attacks are a technical job. Qin Huaidao did not trust everyone. He waved his hands and interrupted: "You are here to confuse the enemy. There are many people and it is easy to be exposed. Stop fighting. This is a military order."
Military orders are like mountains, and everyone is used to obeying them, but it is difficult to insist on them anymore.
Qin Huaidao looked at Xue Rengui: "Follow my route and keep your body low."
"Understood!" Xue Rengui couldn't help but think of the last time he went to Qin Huaidao in Weinan County to infiltrate, and quickly agreed.
Qin Huaidao stopped talking nonsense, quickly lowered his body and retreated, using his hands and feet together, like a sneaking python, using the surrounding bushes to climb to a low slope, rolling down, completely avoiding the view of the woods ahead, seeing Xue Rengui follow suit, and his movements were also
Very agile, I feel at ease.
The two of them quickly took a circuitous route and entered the forest from the side. Qin Huaidao leaned against a big tree and told Xue Rengui who was following him: "Don't make any noise by stepping on dry branches. Keep a distance of more than two feet. Follow me and try not to."
Fight silently with a knife."
Xue Rengui was a little confused. What is silent fighting? How to fight without a knife? Seeing Qin Huaidao rushing forward, his body was very low, like a cheetah looking for food. He rushed out more than ten meters in a few jumps and hid behind a big tree.
No sound was made from the beginning to the end.
"What an exquisite movement." Xue Rengui is a discerning person and immediately realized the advantages of this running and penetration method. It is not only fast, but also can silently approach the target to carry out a sneak attack. He quickly followed, but heard a step under his feet.
The sound of dead branches, hide it quickly.
"Why can't I do it? How did he do it?" Xue Rengui was puzzled. He looked around and found that Qin Huaidao rushed forward again. There was an obvious difference when his feet landed. The toes landed first, and they touched the ground and walked away, like a dragonfly touching water.
The contact range between the feet and the ground is reduced, no wonder there is no sound.
The next moment, Xue Rengui followed suit and walked forward. He saw dead branches under his feet, crisscrossed with dead branches, but there was an empty place. He landed on the empty place with his toes and bounced away. Sure enough, no sound was made, and he suddenly felt something in his heart.
Hi, I admire Qin Huaidao very much.
Sneaking all the way to a mountainside, Xue Rengui saw that there was an ambush in front of him, scattered and hiding behind big trees. They were all dressed in black, wearing masks, and holding crossbows. They were staring at the official road below with vigilance, but they were nowhere to be seen.
Qin Huaidao's shadow was suddenly startled and he hurriedly hid and observed.
Suddenly, Xue Rengui saw a figure coming out of a bush, like a cheetah making a sneak attack. He hugged a person's head from behind, twisted it hard, and then dragged the person back into the bush without making any sound.
This scene shocked Xue Rengui. Is this a silent tactic? So strong!
His blood boiled instantly. As a martial arts practitioner, Xue Rengui naturally yearned for exquisite killing skills and worshiped the strong. He stared at the bushes without blinking, eager to see miracles again.
Not long after, a man emerged from the bushes, wearing black clothes, wearing a mask, and holding a crossbow. Xue Rengui was startled, the man in black was clearly dead just now - could he be the young master?!
At this moment, Xue Rengui's eyes widened. He looked intently and saw Qin Huaidao using the cover of the surrounding trees to sneak around like a python, slowly approaching the target, suddenly rising up, hugging a person from behind, twisting his hands, and then gently placing the person on the ground.
