Just like that, not long after, after another journey.
Our group of eight people finally stopped in front of an extremely narrow mountain pass.
“Lord, this is the pass that the orc army passed through before.”
A rough voice sounded, and Huzhang bowed slightly, cupped his fists at Lei Xiao and said: "At that time, my subordinates had already conducted a detailed investigation.
This pass is the only way that connects the Shadow Forest where we are and the orc tribes on the other side of the Baibu Mountains."
“So this is where it is.”
Nodding slightly, Lei Xiao walked a few steps forward on the uneven gravel road that was a bit stilted for his feet.
At this time, except for the knotweed on one side, the other six subordinates were already scattered not far away. They all held their hands on their weapons and were alert to the surrounding movements.
Lei Xiao walked straight into the pass, raised his head and looked around, and Lei Xiao noticed.
The boundary of this place is much more complicated than the unknown pass on the battlefield before.
In the narrowest canyon between the steep canyons on both sides, at most two strong men can pass side by side.
Furthermore, the temperature inside the pass is significantly lower than outside, giving people a sudden feeling of coolness.
At the same time, with the help of a ray of sunlight projected in, Lei Xiao discovered again.
On the mountain walls in several relatively narrow areas, there are still many white scratches caused by scratches.
Based on the analysis of the slightly new traces, it is obvious that the armor on the body was rubbed against the mountain wall when the orc army passed by at that time.
“The peaks are like shavings, tens of thousands of people are standing on the walls, and the towering Cui Wei... This place can indeed be said to be a place where one man can block the barrier and ten thousand people can’t open it.”
Stroking the hard mountain walls around him, Lei Xiao couldn't help but exclaimed in wonder.
Immediately, he shook his head helplessly and showed a bitter smile: "Thousands of vines and a ray of sky... I have to say that in the previous life, this would have been an excellent tourist attraction."
Next, Lei Xiao regained his composure, carrying a long sword at his waist and wearing leather armor, and continued walking deeper into the pass.
After walking about a hundred meters, the view suddenly opened up.
At this moment, what appeared in front of him was a mountain road with a width of about fifty meters, which was in sharp contrast to the narrow area just now.
Looking left and right, on both sides of the mountain road, there are still cliffs as sharp as a knife.
However, these steep mountain walls are obviously shorter than before, and they are covered with dense vegetation, making them easy to hide.
“It is indeed a good place for an ideal ambush battle!”
Seeing this, Lei Xiao's face couldn't help but reveal a hint of joy.
Immediately asked the burly man next to me: "Polygonum cuspidatum, have you ever gone up to explore the cliffs on these two sides before?"
"Returning to the lord, my subordinates have already found two roads that can go up that night in the surrounding area. The location is extremely hidden."
Hearing this, Hu Zhi, with all his senses fully activated, responded respectfully while paying close attention to the surrounding movements.
“Very good, let’s go up and take a look.” Hearing this, Lei Xiao patted Huzhang’s back to express his appreciation, and Lei Xiao made a forward gesture to the other subordinates around him.
In this way, under the guidance of the knotweed, along the overgrown path all the way up, Lei Xiao quickly made a circle on each of the two cliffs.
“Yes, the terrain is hidden and the road is fairly flat. Not only can magic cannons be set up, but also, with mutual help, even first-order subordinates can climb up.”
Nodding with satisfaction, Lei Xiao's dark eyes immediately flashed with awe, and he said to everyone: "It seems that we have found the best place to crush the boulder hanging above our heads."
“Huzwei, if we were to have an ambush here, what would you do?”
At this time, Lei Xiao, who was standing on the top of a mountain peak, was overlooking the depression while talking to the burly man next to him.
“Back to my lord, the road here is wide, forming a strong contrast with the pass just now, just like the shape of a wine bottle.”
On the other side, he frowned and thought for a moment, and Huzhang clasped his fists and responded: "So, if we compare the opponent to water in a bottle, this wide area is the body of the bottle, and the narrow pass is the neck of the bottle.
So, we only need to completely block the mouth of the bottle at the moment when the water passes through the bottleneck and is about to pour out of the bottle, and then launch the attack.
By then, when the water flows back, the enemy's formation will inevitably be in chaos, and they will undoubtedly become our thorn in the urn."
“That’s right. Letting go of the enemy’s leading troops first and making the opponent’s follow-up troops mistakenly think that the surrounding area is safe is indeed the best time to launch an ambush.”
Nodding appreciatively, Lei Xiao smiled lightly and said: "However, you also ignored a key detail."
"Oh?" Hearing this, Huzhang's rough face revealed a look of confusion, and he cupped his fists at Lei Xiao and said, "Please let me know clearly, Lord."
At the same time, the other subordinates also had confused expressions. As for Chao Yan, who was wearing a pointed witch hat, he had already focused his attention on the butterflies next to him.
In addition to setting fires, extinguishing fires and eating, things like marching and fighting are obviously too difficult for her.
Looking at everyone with confused expressions, using the metaphor of the knotweed just now, Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, refocused his sight on the road under the cliff, and said slowly: "That is naturally the bottle we are in.
In the body area, there is no bottom of the bottle."
“That’s it! Your lord is wise.”
On the other side, Ye Cang took a step forward, pushed up his glasses gracefully, and said: "Due to our limited troops, even if the ambush is successful, we cannot completely prevent the enemy from retreating.
Once the enemy follows the original route and escapes the current ambush area, the effectiveness of the ambush will undoubtedly be greatly reduced."
Hearing this, all the subordinates around him showed expressions of enlightenment.
Even Chaoyan nodded in understanding, with an expression on her pretty face that said she felt powerful even though she didn’t know why.
“However, it is not difficult to make a bottle bottom.”
Speaking of this, Lei Xiao pointed to a cliff area not far away that was lined with huge rocks and looked a bit loose. Directly below there was a wide mountain road.
“Understood! Lord, leave the work of making the bottom of the bottle to your subordinates.” On the other side, Huzhang immediately understood and clasped his fist at Lei Xiao again.
“Very good. In this way, all the problems will be solved.”
Nodding to the knotweed, Lei Xiao patted the dust on his palms and said: "Okay, now that we have a clear understanding of everything here.
Then, naturally it’s time to take a look at the water in our opponent’s bottle.”
“As you command! Lord!”
A respectful and neat voice sounded, and the next second, it was accompanied by gusts of biting wind.
Our group of eight people turned into meteors and exploded into the distance, disappearing in an instant, leaving only dust floating in the air.
