Judge of the Lamp

Chapter 253 Qianlonggang, silent in the middle of the night
The original coach of Tunu was General Nie Gulai.

Nie Gulai was killed by Liang Jixiong, so Che Luosha had a chance to become the coach.

He cherishes this opportunity very much, so he should be more cautious in his actions.

It's just that Xu Zhiqiong didn't expect him to be so cautious. He ordered the army to retreat ten miles temporarily, and gathered all the generals to discuss countermeasures.

The generals talked a lot, and some suggested changing the location of the attack and returning to Shuangxiong Pass.

Some people even complained that the terrain of Yangjiao Pass is complicated, and it should not have come here easily.

Others suggested to stay nearby for a few days, deal with the Xuan army a few times, and force them to go down the mountain before fighting.

All the suggestions have one thing in common, that is, don't fight Xuanjun on the mountain road.

The Xuan army has [-] troops. Although it is not as strong as Tunu, the terrain is too advantageous. If they really want to fight on the mountain road, the outcome of the two sides is unpredictable.

The sudden appearance of Xuanguo's army seriously shook Tunu's army, but Che Luosha gradually calmed down and did not rush to make a decision.

He is the fourth rank of military strategist and the fifth rank of Xiong Shendao. He has fought in the battlefield for more than [-] years. With his clear mind and rich experience, he discovered two flaws.

The first flaw is that the leader of the army is wrong.

The [-] army should be commanded by Chu Xin himself. Even if Chu Xin has special circumstances and cannot come to Qianlonggang, it is absolutely impossible for a young man to lead the army.

The second flaw is the wrong tactics.

Even if Daxuan really has [-] troops, compared with Tunu, he still suffers a disadvantage. Since he has already occupied Qianlonggang in advance, he should adopt an ambush tactic. In any case, an ambush is an advantage. .

Che Luosha was a little skeptical about the spy's news. He wondered how many soldiers and horses there were on Qianlonggang.

He sent three hundred scouts to attack Qianlonggang at night.

The scouts planned to attack Bui Niuping from the mountain road, but Che Luosha asked them to sneak in from the thornbush.

In this battle, Che Luosha did not require the scouts to obtain results, but only asked them to find out the reality of the enemy camp.

In the middle of the night, three hundred scouts sneaked into the bushes.

The dense thorns made the scouts suffer a lot. Although they were wearing thick armor, any exposed skin would be a bloody mouth when they touched the thorns. The scouts trekked through the thorns for nearly an hour, and finally came to the Bury the edge of Niuping.

The Tunu scouts are all elites in the army, with strong individual combat capabilities, strong adaptability, rich combat experience, and some of them have cultivation bases.

They looked at the layout of the camp, and immediately divided into three teams. Two hundred scouts were divided into two groups to explore the camp, and the remaining [-] scouts stayed behind in the thornbush to prevent accidents.

The two teams of scouts entered the camp one after another. They saw that there were a lot of military tents built all over the mountains and plains, but the scouts quickly smelled a familiar atmosphere.

This camp is not very popular, and it is somewhat similar to the empty camp they left before Shuangxiong Pass.

The two hundred scouts were again divided into twenty teams, each with ten members, to speed up the investigation.

A scouting team walked into a tent, which, as expected, was empty.

It is enough to see one tent, and one tent is empty, which proves that there is a high probability that this camp is also empty.

The Xuan army was bluffing, and the rest of the camp let other scouts continue to investigate. The mission of these ten scouts had been completed.

Shi Chang waved his hand, motioning everyone to leave the camp immediately.

As soon as he stepped out of the military tent, Chu He swung his saber down and immediately chopped off the head of a scout.

What a big surprise, Xuanjun is on guard!
He wanted to send a signal to remind other scouts, but if the signal was sent out, the other scouts would reveal their whereabouts.

While hesitating, Wu Shanxing, who was hiding in the dark, shot him through the head with an arrow.

Dozens of soldiers appeared from the shadows, each armed with knives and axes, and rushed towards the scouts silently.

Xu Zhiqiong predicted that Che Luosha would send scouts to investigate the camp, and all the soldiers stood guard near the camp, specially killing the scouts who entered the camp.

Regardless of the means, the strategy is clear, and no one will be left alive.

The scouts were plotted against, and they were broken again. They were in chaos and were quickly killed by the Xuan army. Chu He wiped the blood on his saber and dragged the enemy's corpse into the tent. The paper man walked into the tent.

The paper figurine walked up to Chu He staggeringly, turned around, and pointed to the southeast.

Chu He led his men to the southeast, where there was still a team of scouts.

……

Tong Qingqiu sat in the big tent of the Chinese army, sweating profusely.

More than two hundred paper figurines lurk in the camp, watching the movement of the enemy.The advance and retreat of the Xuan army depend entirely on Tong Qingqiu's command.

A team of scouts came to the vicinity of the Chinese army, with sharp eyes, they found that there was no one guarding the tents, and Yin and Yang qi drifted out from the tents from time to time.

He asked the sergeant to lie still, and approached the big tent alone.

Shi Changyou Xiong Shendao's cultivation base was on the ninth grade, and his sense of smell was very sensitive. He was more than a hundred feet away from the big tent, and he clearly felt that there was only one person in the tent.

Maybe there are some high-grade cultivators beyond his perception, but that's not important anymore. Right now, it can be basically concluded that the camp of the Xuan Army is empty, and even the tent of the Chinese Army is empty.

Shi Chang didn't approach the big tent of the Chinese army again, he concluded that there must be a trap inside, he turned around, and wanted to make a sign for the sergeant to retreat, but Yu Shan suddenly appeared behind him, locking Shi Chang's throat with one arm .

Xiong Shendao's strength is astonishing, Shichang struggled hard, but unfortunately his opponent was Yu Shan, a seventh-rank cultivator of the Dao of Killing, who was far superior to him in terms of strength and means.

With force from Yu Shan's forearm, he broke Shilong's neck. Dozens of Wuwei soldiers surrounded Dingtu Nu's scouts and quickly beheaded him.

The fierce battle was silent, and there were occasional clashes of weapons in the camp, but most of the time there was silence.

A team of scouts was going to look for Xuanjun's granary, but when they reached the back camp, they suddenly found blood all over the ground.

After a long battle, the scout found that this place was not suitable for staying for a long time, so he immediately led his troops to retreat.

He didn't return the same way, he was worried that the Xuan army would ambush behind him.

He led the people to walk down the hillside, preparing to rush down from Buniuping.

This is really a smart man, he walked all the way around the camp and avoided all the ambushes.

When they came to the edge of Buried Niuping, Xuanjun's tents became denser. Shi Chang avoided all the tents, found a suitable place and charged down Buried Niuping.

Rushing to the mountain road, Shi Shi was overjoyed, and was about to report back to the camp, but suddenly felt his feet go limp, and all ten scouts fell into the trap.

In the pit, the reamer rolled and splashed a piece of meat mud. Niu Yuxian ordered the soldiers to turn the winch to restore the trap to its original state, and ordered people to clean up the blood.

……

The scouts waiting in the thornbush did not hear back for a long time.

Before leaving, the three centurions had agreed that if there was no reply within two hours, the scouts who stayed behind in the thornbush would immediately return to the camp to deliver the letter.

The centurion was about to retreat when Xu Zhiqiong suddenly appeared behind the centurion and slashed at Tianling Gai.

The centurion has an eighth-rank Xiong Shendao cultivation base, and he is confident that he can dodge this knife.

But he couldn't imagine the speed of a sixth-rank judge at all. Just as he thought of dodging, half of his head had already been chopped off by Xu Zhiqiong.

The remaining scouts didn't dare to fight and left immediately.

Although there were hundreds of people, they concluded that Xu Zhiqiong was not the only one here, and there must be ambushes around.

Xu Zhiqiong chased them into the bushes, no matter where they fled, he would kill anyone they saw, killing more than [-] people in a row.

The remaining [-] Tu Nus got rid of Xu Zhiqiong, but they got stuck in the thorn bushes. One soldier didn't go far, and suddenly felt dizzy, and couldn't afford it.

Another corporal leader was stabbed by thorns, the wound was bleeding profusely, and he fell to the ground and died within thirty steps.

When they came, soldiers were often scratched by thorns, but it was just a bloody mouth.

Now if it is scratched by thorns again, a large piece of flesh will fall off.

The sharp thorns on the thorns are much sharper than before.

Their judgment was correct, there was not only Xu Zhiqiong here, but another person.

Nearly [-] soldiers were guarding the camp, and only two were guarding the thornbush, one was Xu Zhiqiong and the other was Han Chen.

Han Chen is good at medicine, but it doesn't mean that he is not good at killing enemies.

Han Chen is good at using needles, not just silver needles.

The sharp thorns on the thorns can also be used for it.

Knowing that there were scouts coming, Han Chen arranged yin and yang techniques all over the thorn bush. Some of the spikes were poisonous, some were an inch longer, and some had barbs on them. More than sixty scouts , ran to the outside of the thorns, and there were only a dozen people left.

These more than ten people are also good fortune tellers, out of [-] scouts, they are the only ones who narrowly escaped death.

They were full of joy, and returned to the camp to report, but they were worried that there would be no letter to report. They only saw the Xuanjun camp, and they only knew that the camp was a bit deserted. Apart from this, they did not collect any more information.

Just go back like this, will the commander-in-chief blame him?

This is a very embarrassing thing, but fortunately someone helped them.

After walking dozens of steps on the mountain road, the eyes of a dozen scouts suddenly went dark.

When I opened my eyes and looked again, I found that they were back near the Xuanjun camp.

They were hit by the yin and yang magic circle.

Han Chen didn't give them a chance to escape.

Now they don't have to be in trouble, Han Chen helped them.

They don't have to worry about returning to the camp to report, because they don't need to go back to the camp, Xu Zhiqiong is right in front of them.

Xu Zhiqiong wiped the blood on the knife, and said with a concerned face: "You guys are back again? Don't run into the thorn bushes again, it's dangerous there, hurry up! Come to me!"
