Outside the Yunhai Pass, hundreds of thousands of monsters and barbarian troops blocked the door and surrounded it. Naturally, Niu Xiaosheng and other scouts could not go out through the gate. Outside the gate was a vast grassland, unobstructed, and the hundreds of thousands of troops could clearly see through.
If you go out there, you are seeking death.
When leaving the scout camp, they always take a secret shortcut.
The shortcut is not big. There are steep cliffs on both sides. You can only ride through it alone. It is easy to defend but difficult to attack. You only need a group of people and horses to defend this place. Even if a master comes to attack, you can rely on the military formation to delay for a while while waiting for the master in the army.
Come to help.
"stop!"
Just as they were about to reach the exit, Niu Xiaosheng and others were stopped. The other party was the garrison on this trail, and the leader was a corps commander.
"Which battalion is it from? Why haven't I seen it before? What are you going to do?"
The other party had a cold face and looked businesslike.
"We are from the scout camp, what's going on with you? Wu Bafang and the others just passed by without you stopping them?"
Fu Deyi was so angry that he spit on the other party's face.
The captain's eyes twitched, and he resisted the urge to beat anyone, and said coldly: "Chief Wu has walked this road countless times. I don't know you. If you are not convinced, you can sue."
"Okay, if you get quarreled, just do whatever you want."
Niu Xiaosheng had spoken, and he didn't want to get into more trouble with this matter. After all, the other party was not at fault, and everything was within the rules. Even if he sued himself, it wouldn't be unreasonable.
"Boss, it must be those people from Wu Bafang who are responsible for this."
Fu Deyi shouted, looking at the team leader.
"Um."
Niu Xiaosheng responded lightly and was not surprised. After all, Wu Bafang had been in the army for three years and must have a lot of contacts. Moreover, as an old scout, it was impossible for him to not notice anything. This was a conspiracy.
After a while, after everyone checked and registered, they were released.
Niu Xiaosheng led his men and filed out along the shortcut to the grassland outside.
"Those guys ran so fast, and in just a short time they disappeared."
Looking at the vast prairie, Fu Deyi was a little discouraged.
"Don't worry, you can't run away."
Niu Xiaosheng scanned the surroundings, and the pupil of his left eye changed accordingly. He immediately saw a few faint red lights in the distance, the light emitted by these qi and blood.
He pinched the horse's belly and rushed out in that direction, and the others quickly followed.
······
"Shi Chang, is the news accurate? Isn't it a trap?"
Chen Hao controlled his mount and moved towards Wu Bafang, with a hint of doubt in his tone.
This was because he was not careful. He was really scared. He went out of seclusion six times this month. Not only did he gain nothing, but he almost fell into the trap of monsters a few times. He, Chen Hao, joined the army to obtain military honors, not to give military honors to the enemy.
.
"It's unlikely. Jiang Fan has been keeping an eye on it for a while. That team of scouts patrols there almost every day. It doesn't look like a trap."
Wu Bafang said in a dull voice.
Jiang Fan is an old man who has been with him for two years. He is careful and steady in doing things. Unlike these newcomers who have just joined, they are frizzy and easy to be impulsive. Especially the guy next to him, who has a certain family status and a certain temperament in his bones.
A superior attitude.
If possible, he really didn't want such a person to join his team, as it would be too easy for him to get into trouble.
When the destination was still some distance away, Wu Bafang asked someone to hide the war horse in a small forest.
Waiting until dark, only one person was left here to guard, while the rest walked quietly through the night.
This cannot be explained by Wu Bafang's carelessness. The grassland is the home of the demon barbarians. In order to cut off the eyes and ears of the Chu people, countless rangers are sent out to patrol the surroundings every day. There are even patrolling demon beasts in the sky. If you are not careful, you will be killed.
You will fall into other people's traps. This is a bloody lesson.
After the group of people walked for a while, they stopped on a slope. Not long after, the grass on the slope suddenly moved, and a figure emerged from it.
"Head, you are here."
That figure was Jiang Fan who had been hiding outside for several days.
It's not easy to be a scout, and it's even harder to be a long-lived scout. Now the war in the north is at a fever pitch, especially after the shocking battle in Beikun Mountain half a month ago, the demonic barbarian army seemed to be going crazy.
Launched a fierce attack at Youzhou's three border defense checkpoints.
I don’t know how many lives are buried on this land every day.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Wu Bafang reached out and patted Jiang Fan on the shoulder, his face that had always been tense rarely showed a hint of softness.
"It's okay, I'm used to it."
Jiang Fan smiled nonchalantly. He took the initiative to apply for surveillance. Although it was dangerous, he could get more when the military merits were divided.
Without a background to back me up, if I don’t risk my life at this time, how can I get ahead?
"Jiang Fan, let's talk about the situation first."
Chen Hao asked impatiently.
Jiang Fan's face froze slightly, and then he explained in detail what he had discovered during the past few days.
"So, this is indeed the patrol route of the Demonic Rangers?"
Chen Hao's eyes lit up, he reached out and patted Jiang Fan on the shoulder, and praised: "Well done."
"Okay, it's getting late, let's set up traps first."
In the distance, Niu Xiaosheng and others also arrived here.
The moonlight is dim tonight and the visibility is very low. From a distance, I can only see some blurry shadows shaking.
"Head, it's too far away, I can't see anything clearly."
Fu Deyi narrowed his eyes and said.
"They should be setting up a trap. It seems they have found the patrol route of the demonic scouts."
Liu Hai has been in the military for several years and knows these things very well.
"Is this useful? This place is so big, how could the demon barbarian walk directly into their trap?"
Fu Deyi was a little skeptical.
"Of course it's not that simple. If you go up the mountain to hunt, someone will definitely use it as bait to bring them in. Now the demons and barbarians are like crazy. Seeing Chu people is like seeing hungry wolves in the flock of sheep. Our scout camp
We lost a lot of brothers, and they had good ideas."
Liu Hai was the most well-informed person in the team. Although he had just returned to the camp not long ago, he already knew everything he needed to know.
Niu Xiaosheng turned his eyes and glanced in the direction of Yunhaiguan. In the dark night sky, there were two giant beasts lying on the ground. One was a black and red two-headed giant wolf, and the other was a blood red tiger.
The giant wolf is naturally the barracks of the monster army, while the tiger is in Yunhai Pass. Both are the products of the manifestation of blood, monster energy and military evil. They are generally invisible to the naked eye. With the protection of these two giant beasts, ordinary soul cultivators
All methods are difficult to use.
"Let's go over there."
Niu Xiaosheng stood up. Now that he knew the opponent's plan, he would naturally take the first step and take the military merit.
The group of people quietly lurked a few miles away from Wu Bafang, waiting for the demonic scouts to appear.
