The Assassin Empire of the Three Kingdoms

The morning fog had just risen, and Xian Yufu had already woken up. He had already heard that Zhuge Liang had sent Tai Shici to lead five thousand cavalry to Fuling.It seems that Zhuge Liang's determination is not small. He will have [-] cavalry when he makes a move. You must know that cavalry is very scarce. Even Cao Cao's southern expedition only brought [-] cavalry. Thousand cavalry is likely to be more than half of their cavalry.

But this also has an advantage. Although the cavalry is fast and can rush to Fuling quickly, they are not good at fighting in the mountains.Xian Yufu felt that the chances of winning were great, so he stretched fiercely and twisted twice.The soldiers are cooking, they are not in a hurry.There is only one way in and out of the west mountain pass. If Tai Shici came, the first line of defense would be the sentry outside, and the second line would be the organs designed in the woods.According to Xian Yufu's estimate, if Tai Shici could come in, he would at least get noon, and he would have to lose some soldiers and horses.

"General, there is no movement outside here, I always feel that something is wrong!" Deng Ai had already dressed neatly, patrolled around the camp, and appeared behind Xian Yufu.

Xian Yufu glanced at Deng Ai: "Do you think Tai Shici will break through our defense?"

Deng Ai shook his head: "If no one leads the way, Tai Shici will definitely not be able to come in, just in case..." Deng Ai didn't continue.Xian Yufu felt strange, how could Deng Ai speak so carefully today, and he didn't stutter anymore.He knew Deng Ai's problem, he would only speak sharply when he was a little nervous, this is one of Deng Ai's characteristics,

Xian Yufu said, "Is there anything wrong?"

Deng Ai nodded: "When I was inspecting just now, I found that the few villagers who came with us had disappeared, and even Zhang Yi was missing!"

Xian Yufu took a deep breath: "What's going on? Didn't you ask?"

Deng Ai shook his head: "I asked, but they all said they didn't know. Even the brothers on duty didn't know where they went. They should have slipped away quietly after we fell asleep in the middle of the night!"

Xian Yufu immediately realized something, frowning, Zhang Yi's simple and honest face appeared in his mind.Before he could figure it out, a black figure suddenly appeared in the woods not far away.The pace was fast, with the injury on his left arm, he covered his left arm with one hand, and rushed towards Xian Yufu quickly.

Deng Ai hurriedly rushed over to support the man. This man was a sentinel they sent outside the woods. Needless to say, he must have encountered an enemy.Before Xian Yufu could speak, the man first said: "General, it's bad, we have been betrayed! Tai Shici's soldiers are in the woods, and they are carefully looking for the trap we set up!"

These words happened to be the best proof for Deng Ai.Tai Shici knew about the trap in the woods, so someone must have tipped it off.Among them, apart from their own people, they were Zhang Ni and his group. Of course, their own people would not go. If there was a traitor, it would naturally be Zhang Ni.

Xian Yufu realized that he had made a mistake, a huge mistake, a mistake that could put himself and these brothers to death.Deng Ai handed the wounded soldier over to the rushing soldier and looked at Xian Yufu: "General, this place is not suitable to stay for a long time. Originally, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but now it is the opposite. We have no retreat at all. As long as Tai Shici passes through the forest, It will block us here, and the subordinates think it is better to retreat as soon as possible."

Although Xian Yufu was surprised, he quickly realized it.He took a deep breath: "Yes! What do you think?"

Deng Ai looked at the cliffs on three sides, then turned his head to look at the forest at the exit, and said: "The only thing we have to do now is to take risks. Overcoming these cliffs is our lifeline. Zhang Yi tricked us here to kill us." Trapped, presumably there are no troops stationed on those cliffs, so they can be used by us!"

Xian Yufu didn't speak, but nodded slightly, and Deng Ai went to do it immediately.He still blamed himself a little, why did he trust Zhang Ni so much, he had only known Zhang Ni for less than half a month, and he absolutely cannot forgive such a mistake.

Tai Shici's marching speed was very slow. In order to avoid casualties as much as possible before the two armies met, Tai Shici ordered everyone to search carefully, which slowed down the marching speed very slowly.There are so many traps in the woods, and they are all kinds of strange. These traps are very hidden, and you must be very careful when looking for them.

Tai Shici gently pushed aside a clump of leaves, and immediately a small section of gray hemp rope was exposed underneath. The other end of the rope extended to the left under the leaves, passed through several special devices, and started to stick to the trunk.The rope is hidden within the bark.The person who set up the trap cut the bark with a dagger, buried the rope under it, and covered it with the bark, so that no trace could be seen from the outside.

"These Jingzhou people really worked hard, and this trap is really ingenious!" Tai Shici pulled the rope out from under the bark little by little, and searched all the way up.Among the thick leaves on the top of the big tree, a fence tied with wooden strips was exposed.The fence is pulled up flat, and many sharpened wooden sticks are tied to the fence.According to the effect of gravity, if this thing falls, it will definitely chill the people underneath.

Tai Shici didn't bother to climb the tree, so everyone got out of the way, saw where the thing fell, and pulled it lightly, and the rope snapped.The fence above the head immediately fell down, piercing through the leaves on the ground, and piercing deeply into the soil.

Tai Shici breathed a sigh of relief, turned his head and looked at Zhang Ni behind him: "You did a good job, I will definitely show your achievements to Guardian Zuo after I go back!"

"Thank you, sir!" Zhang Ni hastily clasped his fists in salute.Tai Shici smiled: "If you didn't report this time, my soldiers and horses would suffer heavy losses. As long as my [-] cavalry pass through the forest, I can wipe out those Jingzhou people."

Zhang Ni's heart suddenly tightened. Although he had joined Heibing for a long time, he had been staying deep in the mountains, and Heibing's people had never cared about them.On the contrary, the people brought by Xian Yufu went to Fuling to grab food after knowing that they had too little food, and all the food they brought back was given to them.I also know how to write the word benevolence and righteousness, and I still feel a little bit unbearable to betray such a person.

Zhang Ni hesitated: "My lord, I caught them, you, what are you going to do with them?"

Zhang Ni's voice was very low, almost inaudible.Tai Shici smiled and said: "Those people who disturb my rear, whether they are from Jingzhou or not, just kill them. Now we and Liu Zhang have only the last city left. If we take it, we can go straight to Chengdu and overthrow Liu Zhang completely. These people came to make trouble, even if I cut them with a knife, I still feel puzzled."

Zhang Ni sighed.Tai Shici stared at him: "What? You can't bear it? Don't forget who you are? They are our enemies!"

Zhang Ni nodded quickly: "Subordinates dare not!"

"Hmph!" Tai Shici snorted coldly, and continued to move forward, looking for the next trap.

Climbing cliffs is not a big deal for Xian Yufu's shadow army. Wang Yue's conditions for accepting these apprentices are very harsh. He doesn't care about your status in the dragon army or how many military exploits you have, the main thing is whether you are fit or not. Suitable for martial arts.Since Long Fei reached a consensus with Wang Yue, he sent some people to Wang Yue almost every day. After three years of training, the number of Shadow Legion was less than [-].These people can be said to have been carefully selected, and under the cultivation of Wang Yue, they can be considered to have made some achievements.This rock climbing is also a way for Wang Yue to let them practice finger strength.

When Deng Ai gave an order, none of these people felt that something was wrong, packed up their equipment, and walked towards the rock face they were optimistic about.Although it is not as dexterous as a monkey, it has flying tiger claws in its hands, not to mention that the cliff is covered with some vegetation, so it is easier to climb up.Long-term training allowed these people to reach the top of the mountain without much effort.

Xian Yufu took a few deep breaths: "Fortunately, we found out in time! Otherwise, we will suffer a lot!"

Deng Ai laughed and said: "Look, look, look at the movement below, that, that Tai Shici, well, it seems that he hasn't come in yet, general, I have a plan!"

"Say!" Xian Yufu liked this little stammer a little.In those seemingly dead ends, Deng Ai always has some new ideas.Deng Ai said: "They originally wanted to block us, for example, now that we have escaped, isn't it just right to block them, block..."

"You mean, we use the same way to treat the person?"

"Yes!" Deng Ai nodded quickly: "As long as you block the mountain pass and throw a few stones, the stones can kill them!"

"Hahaha! Good plan!" Xian Yufu finally smiled.He has been frowning since the morning, and now he has a chance for revenge, of course he is happy.

Pull the luggage, equipment, food and grass tied to the long rope up from the mountain.Xian Yufu immediately ordered that Deng Ai lead most of the troops to detour behind Taishi Ci, and if he saw any movement at the mountain pass, he would block Taishi Ci inside at all costs.He has already figured out what method to use to deal with them, and the reputation of his Shadow Legion must not be ruined by this small West Mountain Pass.

The further you go, the denser the traps become.Seeing that they were about to leave the woods, they could clearly see the tents where the Jingzhou soldiers were sleeping outside.The more you get to this time, the less you can be in a hurry, Tai Shici takes every step carefully.

Finally checked out the last trap.Tai Shici signaled everyone to get ready.Turning around, he called Zhang Ni to the front: "Go in and see if they haven't woken up yet, why is there no one?"

Zhang Ni knew that Tai Shici was going to use himself as a bait, but he had to carry out the order. After taking a look at Tai Shici, he could only grit his teeth and lead his subordinates to walk in slowly.How he wished that Xian Yufu and the others had already left this place, but there are cliffs on three sides here, except for the monkeys on Hou'er Ridge, people would definitely not be able to get out.Slowly opened the curtain, the inside was empty.Several tents in a row were all the same, they were all empty and contained nothing.
