Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1316: Soldiers Attack the Mohist Family
  Songhai City, the inner hall of the General's Mansion.

Fusu stood at the front seat, pacing back and forth slowly, as if waiting for something.

Not a moment later, Meng Tian hurried in, bowed his hands and said, "Your Highness, there is news from the Yin Yang family."

"Have you determined the position of the Mo family's rebel?" Fusu suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Meng Tian with burning eyes.

Meng Tian nodded, "We already know the approximate location. The specific location needs to be taken with the suspect to further confirm."

"Very good!" Fusu smiled, waved his hand, and immediately gave the order, "Please also ask General Meng to lead the troops to exterminate the rebellion immediately, and be sure to do it quickly, so as not to let the Mohist rebels get away with it!"

"I will obey your orders!"

………………

On the outskirts of Songhai City, the Mohist stronghold.

Master Ban and others were all in the room at this time, with different expressions on their faces, but it was obvious that they were also waiting for something.

Not long after, the only absent member, Taizhi, walked in from outside the house. After taking a few breaths, he immediately said, "Something really happened!"

"Meng Tian has sent out his troops. There are quite a few of them. They are all cavalry. They are heading straight towards us!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of Master Ban and others suddenly darkened.

"It seems that as Mr. Gai expected, the empire must have used yin and yang mind-reading skills to get the exact location of the stronghold from Ah Zhong." Master Ban stroked his beard with a hand and lamented with a gloomy and sad expression.

Sledgehammer scratched his head, with a look of anger and annoyance on his face, "Then what should we do? Fight with them!?"

Thief Zhi crossed his arms and rolled his eyes at the big hammer, "Can you stop thinking with your muscles?"

"We don't have a hundred brothers in total in our stronghold. How can we fight with Meng Tian's at least a thousand elite cavalry?"

Big Iron Hammer let out a sigh, feeling unhappy, but he also knew that he really shouldn't be impulsive, so he could only murmur miserably, "Then...then we can't just run away. It will be troublesome after we lose the stronghold..."

Gao Jianli shook his head, his paralyzed face now full of gloom, but he could only say helplessly, "There is no other way, no matter how important the stronghold is, we can only give up at this time and protect ourselves first."

Gai Nie, who was listening silently, suddenly interjected, "May I ask what the route of Meng Tian's army is?"

"Uh..." Thief Zhi was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it, he shouted to the big hammer, "Bring... bring the map."

"Oh." Big Iron Hammer hurriedly went to get the topographic map of Songhai that the Mo family had surveyed and mapped by themselves.

Thief Zhi took the map and laid it on the table. After pondering it for a while, he began to draw on it, "We are here... Meng Tian's troops set out from here... so the route should... should be roughly like this!"

Robber Zhi made gestures at this corner of the map, analyzing and guessing.

Although he didn't know how to march and fight, it was not very far from Songhai City to the Mohist stronghold. There were not many routes to choose from, and even fewer suitable for cavalry to attack quickly. In the end, he made a guess.

In fact, Gai Nie didn't need Tuozhi to give a conclusion. He had already deduced the marching route after Tuozhi pointed out the starting position of Meng Tian's army. It was just out of politeness to listen quietly to Tuozhi's gestures.

At the same time, he also had a plan in mind.

Gai Nie stepped forward and pointed at a certain path that Meng Tian's army must pass through. "This is a long and narrow valley. We can intercept at the exit of the valley to stop Meng Tian's advance!" Upon hearing this, Master Ban and others all started talking. Monk Zhang Er looked at each other, a little confused.

The most upright and quickest Sledgehammer said directly, "Mr. Gai, this place is very suitable for an ambush, but we don't have the manpower to stop the attack now!"

When it comes to military literacy, apart from the bug-level being like Gai Nie, Sledgehammer is really the strongest, but this guy will overload his brain when fighting, and he is reckless.

Gai Nie shook his head, "No need, I am enough alone."

"what!?"

These words shocked everyone.

Master Ben quickly said, "Although the time is tight, it should be enough for all of us to evacuate the stronghold. Mr. Gai does not need to take such risks, it is too dangerous!"

Gai Nie shook his head again, "It's not to delay time, Gai wants to stop their action this time."

Then Gai Nie explained this, "Although Yin Yang mind reading is overbearing and treacherous, it cannot really pry into people's brain thinking. It is more like an irresistible torture technique. Therefore, the recipient can only do everything in detail at best." 'Confessing' one's behavior to the practitioner, this elaboration of behavior is often not clear enough in describing the specific location."

"Furthermore, the confession process will be very vague since Yin Yang Mind Reading will directly affect the subject's mind, further aggravating the inaccuracy of the results."

After listening, Gao Jianli guessed based on the semantics, "Mr. Gai, do you mean that even if the Yin Yang family gets the location of the stronghold from Ah Zhong, there is a high probability that it will be vague?"

"Oh?" When everyone heard this, they suddenly became excited.

If the location of the stronghold is not completely exposed, there is indeed a chance to remedy it.

At this time, Xue Nu questioned, "I once saw Da Siming use Yin and Yang mind-reading skills in Loulan. It seemed... very accurate, and he got the desired results almost immediately?"

Gai Nie explained calmly, "Gai can't make a conclusion on this point, but the high probability is because the time interval is too short - the information Da Siming wants to get happened just now, and the subject's memory is too long. Clear.”

"Actually, I'm not sure about what I just said. I just think I should give it a try."

"If this is indeed the case, the masters of the Yin and Yang family will definitely bring Ah Zhong and continue to use Yin and Yang's mind-reading skills to obtain more information."

"At that time, I will attract their attention from the front, and the rest will ask Brother Thief Zhi to go there." Gai Nie turned his eyes to Thief Zhi and warned, "If Ah Zhong is not brought by the army, then the stronghold The location has most likely been completely exposed, so Brother Thief Zhi needs to return to the stronghold as quickly as possible and notify everyone to evacuate."

Master Xu interjected, "Can we make it in time?"

The coquettish thief stroked the yellow hair on his head and smiled smartly, "Hey! Aren't you still worried about my speed?"

Master Ban ignored Thieves Zhi, stared at the map closely, and nodded heavily, "Let's prepare for evacuation first, it's too late!"

Gao Jianli made a decision after hearing this. He bowed to Gai Nie and thanked him, "In that case, I'll trouble Mr. Gai to take the risk."

"The Snow Girl and I will be on hand to support you and are ready to support you at any time!"

Gao Jianli was more direct and simply sent him and Xue Nu out together, leaving the stronghold temporarily without expert protection.

Although it will increase the risk, this lair is about to be destroyed, so I don’t care about this risk anymore!
