He Lou Ziqian carefully looked at the surrounding mountains and forests. Tall mountains stood opposite each other. Birds often rose and fell in the dense jungle. If he hadn't been followed by so many soldiers who also held their breath and walked forward, He Lou Zigan would have
I even felt like I was on vacation this time.
The beauty and silence in the depths of Cangxi Valley seem to have never been disturbed by others. Now He Lou Zigan is like a rash intruder, but it seems that everything in this deep valley has not been disturbed. Birds and fish still follow the rules
Following the original trajectory of life, the wind blows the leaves, and these small trees that have just sprouted branches and sprouts after the New Year are swaying gently in the wind.
This nature has embraced these rash intruders with absolute tolerance.
"General, it's a little strange to be quiet here. It doesn't look like anyone has been here," a general said in a low voice, as if even he didn't want to disturb the peace that was no longer in the world of mortals.
Just as He Lou Ziqian was about to order a temporary rest, the woods not far away suddenly made a soft sound, and a dozen birds took off into the sky. They fluttered randomly at first, and then they gathered into a formation to attack another bird after flying into the air.
Fly in the direction.
Realizing that something was not going well, the scouts in the army who were scouting the way in front stopped at the same time, and He Lou Zigan also took a gentle breath and looked around. The generals also put away the relaxed expressions on their faces at this time, and tightened their grip.
Tighten the hilt.
The frightened birds rising in the woods indicate that there must be an enemy ambush in the woods.
"Quickly, seize the mountain peak over there. You guys, come with me!" He Louzi waved his hand, "Remember, you can't scare the snake away and slow down your pace for me."
"Promise!" All the generals agreed in unison.
"Please keep your voice down, I!" He Lou Zigan's eyes suddenly widened.
After watching these generals turn around and leave with their troops and horses, Helou Zigan waved his hand and walked straight towards the woods where the birds had just taken off.
At this time, Li Xun and dozens of Taoist soldiers were hiding just a hundred feet away from He Lou Zigan, and watched helplessly as He Lou Zigan walked towards here step by step.
Most of these soldiers are not participating in battles for the first time, and the battles they have participated in before were all about clearing enemy checkpoints and ambushes. The important thing is to hold your breath and calm your mind. This is not the first time you have experienced this kind of scene. Even if
Even if the enemy is several times greater than oneself, the position will not be disrupted.
Looking at the approaching enemy, Li Xun narrowed his eyes slightly, counted the time, and slowly clenched his fists.
A Northern Zhou general who was walking in front screamed, stepped on the air, and fell directly into the pit. His hand subconsciously wanted to grab the tree next to him, but in the end he just waved his hand in the air in vain.
At the same time, several soldiers walking side by side with the general also fell into the pit at the same time. Moreover, this pit was obviously not the kind of shallow pit that would cause a collapse if a person walked on it. The grass and soil on top of the pit were strong enough.
It can carry the weight of at least two or three people. It was designed and dug by these people to capture large prey in the mountains.
Therefore, when the soldiers at the front walked on it, the few people behind actually stepped on the pit, so at this time more than ten people fell into the pit at the same time.
"The ground is sinking!" I don't know which soldier shouted out in panic first, and the people around him suddenly became confused.
"What's going on? It's just a trap by the enemy!" He Louzi said coldly, "The crossbowmen and sword and shield men go up, and the generals stabilize their positions!"
The generals agreed in unison and urged the soldiers around them to return to the team. Each pair of eyes looked at the surrounding mountains and forests with some horror. They didn't know what else was waiting for them. Sometimes even the people on their own side
Many, when the danger is still unknown, there is still no way to stop the fear in people's hearts.
He Lou Zigan quickly walked to the traps. There were barbs buried at the bottom of these traps, and the soldiers who fell in were directly nailed to death. There was no need to save them at all.
"The enemy just set up a trap, and the way they used it shows that they have no intention of staying to ambush us," He Lou Zigan said in a deep voice, "If you let the scouts go out to explore the road, you must be careful. After all, there should be still things in this mountain forest.
There are more agencies.”
Several scouts stepped forward slowly. Before they could take two steps, a roar suddenly came. Several huge logs fell from the sky and hit the scouts' heads directly. The logs knocked the scouts down.
After that, it did not stop rolling, but continued to roll and fall into the previous pit.
You can clearly hear the sound of heavy wood hitting the human body.
At this time, all the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty gasped subconsciously. It is conceivable that if some of their companions were lucky enough to survive in the pit just now, they would be trapped by the log when they struggled out, and if someone jumped down to restrain themselves,
Corpses or rescuing people will inevitably suffer the same fate.
The enemy has even calculated this, and no longer knows whether to call it vicious or shrewd.
At this time, several generals no longer had the courage to move forward. They looked at each other and at the same time, their eyes fell on He Lou Ziqian.
He Lou Zigan narrowed his eyes slightly: "Why, are you all scared? That one is walking in the front!"
As he spoke, He Lou Zigan stretched out his hand to push away the obstruction of the guards around him, and strode forward. At this time, the generals also came to their senses, and hurriedly rushed in front of He Lou Zigan.
The generals took action, the commanders and generals also gave orders, and the scouts came out again.
This time they also learned their lesson and instead of walking forward side by side, they staggered forward and backward.
Unexpectedly, it seemed that there were no other traps after this. The scout who opened the way slashed the thorns in front with his knife, strode to a rock, and waved to the team behind him to indicate safety.
However, before the troops behind him could catch up, the wind suddenly became sharp, and an arrow roared out and penetrated into the chest of the scout. The scout shook and fell directly from the stone. The few scouts behind him reacted still.
It was considered timely, but facing the arrows shot out at the same time, they didn't have much power to fight back. The arrows had already arrived in the next moment.
This kind of short arrow looks like it was shot with a specially improved crossbow. It is powerful but has a short range. You don't have to think about it to know that the enemy is nearby!
A whistle sounded, and several Taoist crossbowmen jumped down from the trees. Before the Northern Zhou crossbowmen behind them could recover, their figures had already disappeared into the trees. The Northern Zhou crossbowmen were unwilling to do so.
A volley fired at the bushes.
The arrows sank into the trees and made a "pop" sound, but everyone knew that most of these arrows were in vain.
"Chase!" He Lou Zigan's face was ashen. The enemy was actually attacking the scouts who were opening the way, but killing people in front of He Lou Zigan was no longer annihilating the scouts, but beating He Lou Zi dry.
Of course He Lou Ziqian couldn't stand it.
"General!" Several generals noticed something was wrong.
