Gu Qi, she just wants to farm

Chapter 557 Hunting II

The Zhentianlei of this period contained gunpowder inside, and the shell was wrapped in pig iron. After detonation, the pig iron shell could be blown into pieces, enough to penetrate iron armor, and its power was outrageous.

The same cost is also very astonishing. Although there are occasional rumors in the rivers and lakes, the number is not many.Chen Dao didn't think about using Zhentianlei in such a large number except for the soldiers and horses of the imperial court.

How could it be someone from the imperial court? Could it be that the imperial court has already planned to encircle and suppress the rebel army, how many people did they bring with them on this trip?

Chen Dao was terrified, the court's garrison in the south of Yu was just barely built, did he already have the energy to come to Yubei to take the flag of the rebels?
No, it would take more than ten days to go from south of Yu to north of Yu, even if you go fast, not to mention that it would take at least a month or two for a large army to go north and travel lightly. How could they arrive at Yushan so quickly.

What's more, Yushan County has been occupied by the rebels for more than half a month. If there were people from the imperial court lurking, how could they not have received any news.

Could it be that the army hasn't arrived yet, but just sent an advanced elite to test it?
Chen Dao couldn't figure it out, but he had lost three points of his courage to lead the troops into the mountain.
-
If the attackers were really the elite of the imperial court, and they had a thunderbolt in their hands, entering the mountain rashly at this time would be just asking for their own death.However, the Piansheng mountain area is simply unable to fight on a large scale. Even if he has tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in his hand, it will be useless at this time.

No, it's not completely useless!
Zhen Tianlei must be numerous, since they are the first elite troops and ambushed secretly in Yushan, the weapons they can carry must not be too many.

A stern look flashed in Chen Dao's eyes, he pulled the cronies beside him, and asked coldly, "Where are the recruits brought this time?"

"The general felt that these recruits were slow in marching, so they arranged them to the rear as a drag on the itinerary." The cronies were a little embarrassed.

The confidant has been with Chen Dao for a long time, and he knows what Chen Dao is up to after hearing the words.It's just that they are all besieged on the mountain road at this time, and they can't retreat at all. Under such circumstances, it is just a delusion to drag the recruits from several miles away to the front line.

What's more, with this skill, wouldn't it be better to escape first?

Chen Dao obviously also thought about this problem, and he was silent for a moment and whispered: "The order continues, the remaining Huwei army here will be divided into teams of ten people, and each team will be separated into the mountain with a distance of three feet. If anyone can take down the enemy's head, Five taels of silver will be rewarded for each head; if the enemy general can be captured, I will ask the general to promote him to be a school lieutenant, and another hundred taels of silver will be rewarded."

Now those who are besieged on the mountain road are all the elites of Tiger's Might Army. It took a lot of energy and money to select and train this team.If it was a normal war, some of the newly recruited disaster victims would make up the number. Neither Wang Hu nor Chen Dao would be willing to take these elite soldiers to fill their lives, but they couldn't care less about so many at this time.

It is necessary to let these people advance into the mountain first to hold back the enemy's firepower, so that they can retreat and join the tens of thousands of troops in the rear. At that time, whether to meet the station or make plans can be discussed separately.

As for the general, Chen Dao glanced at the rocks piled up behind him. After so long a delay, I'm afraid it's more than auspicious.

Chen Dao gritted his teeth and sighed in his heart: "Brother Hu, it's not that my brother didn't save you, it's because I can't do anything. But don't worry, Brother Hu, my brother will definitely walk out alive, and I won't let the Tiger Army you built with your own hands come to naught."
-
"Qi Ye, as you expected, the scattered sheep have separated into the mountain." Looking at the movement down the mountain, Huang Shanhai's eyes flashed with excitement.
