Soon, Wei Yan and others were groping up the mountain.
Because Pang Tong had never really been to Shiyin Mountain, so this time, everyone had to find the road on the mountain by themselves.
This brings some unknown dangers to this mountaineering trip.
But... many people feel that at least it won't be more dangerous than last time, right?
However, Wei Yan was not as sure as the previous time——
"Continue to maintain the formation! Don't be alone. The scouts remember to keep in contact at all times - any questions must be reported back immediately!"
"Yes Yes!"
The subordinates seemed to be puzzled by Wei Yan's current caution, but they did not make too many suggestions.
Soldiers are meant to carry out orders - trusting their commander's judgment is a very important rule.
However...the eerie calmness in Shiyin Mountain really makes people feel chills running down their spines.
"Why is it so quiet? There should be many birds and beasts in Shiyin Mountain, right?"
I don’t know who revealed the mystery. After hearing this, Wei Yan suddenly felt that they had indeed entered an invisible strange circle.
He suddenly raised his right hand high to signal the whole army to stop, and then started to use the flute again to communicate with the scouts scattered in the distance——
Based on the experience last time, Wei Yan also knew that ordinary codes could be easily cracked, so they re-established a signaling system in just a few days, and the method of communication was whistling.
"Wen Chang, what's wrong?"
Liu Feng stepped forward and asked worriedly. Wei Yan just shook his head and motioned Liu Feng to listen quietly.
…
no respond.
Half a stick of incense passed, but there was still no response from the forest.
"The whole army is on alert! Put up your shields, we may be ambushed!"
Wei Yan no longer took any chances and immediately called on the surrounding soldiers to be more vigilant.
The scout's delay in responding was a problem, but what Wei Yan was more worried about was that when the scout was killed this time, he didn't make any sound...
To a certain extent, Wei Yan thought this might be a signal from the other party - for example, this time the other party did not want to trap them, but to kill them all...
Everyone held their breath.
And because they planned to attack the city, the shields they brought were quite sufficient.
Everyone was on guard for the arrows that would be shot from the shadows of the woods at any time, and before they knew it, the temperature in the forest seemed to have dropped a bit.
This strange calm did not last long, because just as Wei Yan expected - the other party did not come to harass them this time, but to fight them to the death.
A bad premonition was born from this, and Wei Yan couldn't help but start to feel irritable.
the reason is simple…
If the other party is just harassing them, he can still lead the team and continue to push forward, but if the other party intends to fight them to the death - then the frontal battlefield...
"We can't stay here for too long, we must fight quickly..."
Before Wei Yan finished speaking, a wind-breaking arrow flew out from the shadows and headed straight for his head.
However, under the highly concentrated and profound perception, such an attack was naturally caught by Wei Yan immediately. He hurriedly ducked, and the arrow flew past the side of his helmet. The metal arrowhead of the arrow also followed him.
The helmet collided and sent out a string of sparks.
"The article is long!"
"General!"
"Leave me alone! Fight quickly! Young Master, you and I move forward alternately on the left and right! Expand the scope of the attack as much as possible - look for bunkers! Be careful of the traps under your feet!"
In just a moment, Wei Yan told him everything he could say.
This is the summary ability that a strong general should have - failure is not terrible, the important thing is to be able to learn from failure.
Their biggest disadvantage now is that the enemy is in the dark and we are clear. Although they use the same tactics of dividing troops as before, the way of finding bunkers and advancing alternately also takes advantage of the complicated environment in Shiyin Mountain.
Wei Yan's judgment at this moment was approaching the extreme.
Hearing this, Liu Feng and many lieutenants quickly nodded in agreement.
"Everyone behind you, keep up! Always pay attention to arrows coming from the side, be careful of traps - crossbowmen and archers! Fight back!"
Fighting back is another lesson they have learned.
When facing an enemy in the dark, the last thing you can do is to stay in retreat and let the enemy attack you.
This is what Pang Tong told Wei Yan before.
In short, under a series of commands, Wei Yan's army broke out with a completely opposite mental outlook from before.
The skilled crossbowman first hid behind the shield to avoid the flying arrows, and then immediately fired back in the direction in which the arrows flew——
In an instant, the sound of someone falling to the ground after being hit by an arrow was heard one after another in the forest.
Done?
Liu Feng couldn't believe his ears.
After narrowly dodging another arrow, he also imitated Wei Yan's method and rushed directly in the direction of the arrow with his shield on his head.
Sure enough, seeing Liu Feng charging straight towards him, the enemies in the forest seemed to be a little unable to react in time.
After a commotion, Liu Feng relied on his pretty good body and jumped directly into a bush——
"Ugh! You!"
As soon as he entered the bush, Liu Feng met a strong man wearing animal skin. Without saying a word, Liu Feng slashed with his knife. In an instant... blood spattered and the man's head fell to the ground.
After receiving the true message, Wei Yan's army seemed to have really taken the initiative, and with their sophisticated equipment, they would basically win if they encountered enemies in the forest.
Seeing that the situation was improving, Wei Yan immediately shouted to Liu Feng:
"Master! Lead the team forward quickly! There is no time to waste with them!"
"No problem with the length!"
Liu Feng excitedly wiped away the blood from the knife edge and turned to leave. However, at this moment, a cool breeze suddenly blew from behind him——
Liu Feng didn't realize the seriousness of the problem for a moment as he felt a gentle touch like fallen leaves brushing against his skin.
But then…
"Oh? It seems that you are Liu Bei's eldest son Liu Feng?"
"Since you were caught by me, I would like to trouble you to get some sleep first——"
"you!"
The words that suddenly sounded in his ears shocked Liu Feng, but before he could turn around and fight back, the numbness caused by the heavy blow on the back of his neck spread to his whole body. Immediately afterwards, Liu Feng's eyes went black and he fell.
Go down.
Fei Zhan, standing next to Liu Feng, looked at the people of Wei Yan who were already running towards the top of the mountain, and began to convey the news with coded signals.
"We captured the enemy general! Block them from the front!"
In fact, Fei Zhan never thought that they could get such a huge bargain for nothing.
But since it was delivered to the back room, how could he not accept it?
