National color raw owl

At the front of the Suspension Bridge of Rising Sun Peak, the Shanzi Battalion was already lying on the edge of the cliff, and it looked like it was in full swing. The bandits on the side of the Suspension Bridge were once startled by the lineup of the officers and soldiers, but soon, the tension in their hearts completely disappeared.

The abyss and the sky are enough to guarantee their safety, unless the officers and soldiers have wings to fly over.

The dozens of bandits stationed beside the suspension bridge also participated in the previous battle against the officers and soldiers. In the battle of Rising Sun Peak, the officers and soldiers suffered countless casualties, and none of them were able to cross the cliff in the end.

The previous battles made the bandits full of confidence.

When they saw the shield soldiers of the Shanziying opened their mouths and pushed up more than a dozen huge locomotives from behind, many bandits immediately showed disdain in their eyes.

Of course, General Qiu did not inform these minions of the intentions of the officers and soldiers.

Although the bandits knew that General Qiu had transferred most of the main forces of Liuzhai to Sunset Peak, most of them didn't know the reason.

Many people even wondered that the officers and soldiers were clearly going to attack Rising Sun Peak, why did General Qiu transfer the main force from Rising Sun Peak to Sunset Peak instead?

But some people have thought self-righteously, maybe General Qiu felt that there was a deep moat on the side of Xuri Village, and there was no need to deploy too many troops.

Just like the previous battle, although heavy troops were assembled in the village at the Sunrise Peak, when the real fight started, the area beside the suspension bridge was too narrow to accommodate too many people. During the battle, there were only a few dozen minions in the front To defend against the enemy, there are layers of soldiers behind. There is a gap in the front, and it is filled in the back. There are so many people that it is impossible to spread out.

Many bandits remember that although there were some casualties in the stockade at that time, very few were killed by officers and soldiers. Except for some people who died because of being hit by cold arrows, many of them were killed by their own people because of the overcrowded side of the suspension bridge. Many people squeezed onto the cliff.

Although General Qiu transferred most of his troops from Rising Sun Peak, he still left more than 100 people here. Except for some important strongholds left behind, the people left by the suspension bridge have all fought against officers and soldiers before. experience.

The surname of the peak owner of Xuri Village is Quan, and he was even left behind by General Qiu, who led his men to guard the suspension bridge.

The minions don't know the truth, but the Peak Master Quan knows very well that the officers and soldiers attacking the Rising Sun Village was just a bluff, and their purpose was to sneak attack on the Sunset Peak, so the pressure here will not be too great.

Even so, he made preparations on his own, and prepared a lot of defensive equipment beside the suspension bridge. After the last confrontation, the people in Huluzhai knew how to defend the suspension bridge more effectively and how to kill officers and soldiers more effectively.

They have seen locomotives before.

When they saw the locomotive for the first time, they were also taken aback, but later they realized that although the officers and soldiers could artificially create iron chains to connect the two sides, but they wanted to attack the Sunset Peak, but it was whimsical.

The officers and soldiers positioned the locomotive, but they did not immediately shoot out the iron chains as the bandits thought. Although the drums were still rumbling, the officers and soldiers did not immediately launch an attack on Xuri Village.

……

……

Qiu Ruxue clings to the rock wall, and compared to others, it takes him a lot more effort to climb the cliff.

He only has one arm left, and he wears an iron hook in his hand. Every time he stretches his arm to the highest point, hooks the iron hook to the rock wall, and then exerts force on his arm, and his body goes up to find a suitable foothold. After half-bent, Then slowly stabilized the body, stood up slowly, and pressed the whole body against the rock wall, waited for the body to stand upright completely, and then looked for a suitable place, stretched out his hand and hooked it with the iron hook.

His expression was stern, but his eyes were determined.

The others were like ghosts, with iron hooks on their hands, climbing up silently. Many people saw Qiu Ruxue, and every time they saw him go up to meet him, they sweated for him.

Everyone knows that, let alone Qiu Ruxue climbing with one hand, if those with complete hands are a little negligent, they will fall off the rock wall, even if there is a lake below, the impact force at that time is enough to knock them down. A person's internal organs were shattered, and after falling, he was close to death.

Qiu Ruxue's forehead was already covered with sweat, and it was a bit shady in the middle of the night, but almost everyone was already covered with sweat.

The double consumption of physical strength and spirit made everyone's backs sweat.

"Crash!"

There was a sound of crushing stones, and Qiu Ruxue heard someone beside him exclaiming in surprise. He was taken aback. The crushed stones were falling from above. When he looked up, he saw a figure falling down like a head.

Qiu Ruxue was terrified, seeing that the person was about to fall from the middle of the cliff, he was close to death, when he suddenly saw that person's body stopped suddenly, and then continued to slide down.

His eyes were sharp, but he could see clearly that at the very moment, a companion reached out and grabbed the person who fell from above. It was just the impact, but they still slid down with them.

The hook that was originally hooked on the rock wall slid down the traces on the rock wall under the impact.

Of course, the people Qiu Ruxue found were not ordinary people. The person who fell from above reacted instantly. He hooked his hands on the rock wall and went deep into it. People are hanging in the void, trying to find their feet, and finally found a foothold.

After turning the corner, everyone who saw this scene breathed a sigh of relief while being horrified.

Qiu Ruxue was not only worried about the tragic death of his companion, but also worried about the noise made when his companion fell into the water. At this time, it was dead of night, and falling into the lake from a high altitude would make a lot of noise. Once the bandits guarding the back mountain noticed, The consequences could be disastrous.

Everyone stabilized their minds, and the two men looked at Qiu Ruxue by the moonlight, Qiu Ruxue nodded to them, and everyone no longer hesitated, at this time they were halfway up the mountain, there was no way to retreat .

Inside a stone pavilion on Sunset Peak, General Qiu was sipping tea calmly. He was condescending and could clearly see the stone wall below. As long as there was any situation on the other side of the wall, he would be able to see it at a glance.

The moonlight was quiet, and there was silence all around.

General Qiu was not in a hurry, but Peak Master Zhao of Sunset Peak was a little anxious. General Qiu saw it in his eyes and asked calmly, "What is Master Zhao thinking?"

Master Zhao Feng hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously: "General, this subordinate is wondering if the officers and soldiers have reached the foot of Sunset Peak?"

"What should come will always come, don't worry."

"But there is no movement at Rising Sun Peak." Master Zhao frowned and said, "The officers and soldiers seem to be waiting for something."

General Qiu smiled lightly and said, "How can they attack when the suspension bridge is raised? There is a lesson learned from the past. Even if they attack, it will only increase the casualties in vain. The Rising Sun Peak is a feint, of course they don't want to be there. Boundaries will be lost."

Master Zhao Feng forced a smile and said, "The general is wise."

At this moment, a person rushed over and said: "General, the attack has already begun...!"

General Qiu suddenly got up, walked out of the pavilion quickly, and walked along a small path to the side of a high tower, which was a wooden tower for observation.

General Qiu boarded the wooden pagoda and looked down from a high place. Although the distance was a bit far, the flames over there were as bright as day, but he had already seen that the locomotive of the Chu army had finally launched iron chains, and more than a dozen iron chains had already connected the two sides of the cliff. stand up.

General Qiu clenched his hands into fists.

Fengzhu Zhao couldn't help but asked softly: "General, do you need to send some people over for reinforcements? It looks like the officers and soldiers are really going to attack the Sunset Village!"

General Qiu glanced at Fengzhu Zhao, and said calmly: "Are you doubting the general's arrangement?"

Frightened eyes flashed across Zhao Fengzhu's eyes, and he hurriedly said: "This subordinate dare not."

Rising Sun Village is the main village of Gourd Village. The roads are intertwined and there are checkpoints on many roads. Although Gourd Village is well-defended, General Qiu is still cautious inside the village. The checkpoints set up on the roads are guarded day and night. , the minions in each village must not cross the border easily unless they are transferred, just like the minions in the sunset village, if they do not get the transfer from above, if they enter the boundaries of other villages rashly, once they are arrested, they will be punished as spies. If the crime is punished, Erhuluzhai will punish spies without pardon.

But this time, in order to set up an ambush for the officers and soldiers, a large number of people were withdrawn from each village. Except for some extremely important checkpoints, many checkpoints were empty.

The jungle is dense, and a ghostly procession is moving rapidly forward.

Qiu Ruxue now only feels that there is nothing he can do in the world. Before climbing the rock, he had prepared for the worst. He even thought that he might fall off the cliff and die before climbing the cliff.

But this time it went surprisingly smoothly.

Although there was indeed an accident in the middle, in the end, no one was injured or injured, and everyone climbed up the cliff unscathed. Qiu Ruxue only felt that this was completely a miracle.

Although everyone used up a lot of physical strength, but thinking that I was able to conquer the towering cliffs, it felt like defeating an enemy that was much stronger than myself, and my whole body was invigorated.

It's just that they didn't have much time to reminisce about the adventure of rock climbing just now, so everyone tidied up a bit, and then, led by Qiu Ruxue, went deep into the depths of Rising Sun Village.

Qiu Ruxue seemed to be quite familiar with the terrain of Rising Sun Village. Although he thought briefly at several forks in the road, he quickly made a choice.

"There are people at the checkpoint in front!" Zhu Qingye followed closely beside Qiu Ruxue, everyone walked very lightly, and saw another checkpoint appearing in front of them from a distance.At a fork in the road.

Everyone immediately searched for cover and hid their whereabouts. Qiu Ruxue dodged behind a big tree, poked his head out, observed carefully for a short moment, and quickly made a gesture.

He had already seen clearly that there were four minions at that checkpoint, and he had encountered two checkpoints before, which were unguarded, and this was the first guarded checkpoint he encountered.

Qiu Ruxue made a few gestures, and several people had already separated from the left and right, and walked around from both sides. Qiu Ruxue waited for a moment, and in a flash, he had already flashed out from behind the big tree. He was alone, striding towards the checkpoint walk over.
