Chapter 797: Treasure of the Earth Gate
Living habits have changed, and the people's awareness has become more and more ideas, and they know that if they want to get ahead, it is best to go to Youzhou to work.
Most people can only think about it, and it is not easy to really be able to leave.
The lives of the people in the state capitals have nothing to do with the "Dimen" in the Qinling Mountains, they live in the mountains, and although the relationship network is very strong, they all live very monotonously.
Training every day.
Luo Yi led the Yanyun cavalry deep into the Qinling Mountains, and they searched for it with all their might according to the address provided by Wuyu.
Even if the address is marked, it takes a lot of experience to identify the direction in the mountains, and it took half a month for the scouts to discover the location of this "earth gate" in Qinling.
The scouts were quiet near the "underground gate", and they all hid and observed, but no one was found entering or leaving the mountain gate for several days.
The entrance to the "Earth Gate" is on top of a mountain peak, and the bluestone path has more than 300 steps through observation.
Scouts are definitely not right, because those tongueless people want to go out with the horses, and I don't know what the bluestone trail is.
In order to make sure that the scouts secretly went up to inspect it at night, after more than 300 steps there was a mountain gate similar to that in the Taoist temple.
It looked old, there was no sign, and the walls were so high that they couldn't look around.
Luo Yi and his soldiers and horses are stationed in the mountains and forests, which are very low-key, and in order not to be discovered, they will not make fires when they eat.
Thanks to the compressed dry food they carried was more than enough.
"The location of the General's 'Earth Gate' has been found, and it feels a little wrong through observation."
The scout told the situation, and Luo Yi was in trouble after hearing it, and based on the relevant information, he was able to deduce how this kind of mountain gate could be the place where the people in the 'Earth Gate' lived and lived.
There was no smoke during the day, so they didn't have to eat, and besides, it was very quiet in the mountain gate, and it was impossible for anyone to find something with the experience of the scouts.
"Those people behave abnormally, don't act rashly, lest they startle the snake."
"General, will the location found now be an illusion, according to the location recorded in the information, it is not said that there are bluestone steps and temples." A lieutenant general of the Yanyun cavalry said.
"Let the scouts look for it again, will it be in the wrong place?"
After Luo Yi finished the order, he continued to pick up the information to check, according to the records of the dossier, the location of the "Earth Gate" is a large cottage.
Now the location is roughly around here, but where is the cottage?
Luo Yi is not ready to test the lives of Yanyun cavalry, it is really not easy to find a target in the mountains and forests, especially if he does not grasp the direction well, the target he finds in the end will definitely be different.
They found the right goal, but the wrong direction.
Luo Yi has always been cautious, and every battle has to be fought with his life, so the Yanyun cavalry will be fully prepared before every battle.
This time I fought in the mountains and forests, and I lost the advantage of the horses, so I will be more cautious in everything.
After another two days, the scouts expanded their search and found the true "Gate" location in the other direction.
The cottage built by the mountain, the temple of the bluestone steps is actually at the top of the back of the cottage, the location of the ground gate is very peculiar, and the main part of the cottage is actually in the boulder cave under the cliff.
Even if you stand at the temple site, you can't see what is going on under the cliff.
And the temple on the cliff is very strange, Luo Yi didn't let people go inside to check, in case it is really connected to the cottage below, I am afraid it will ruin their plan.
"The general found the target, according to the observation that there are at least five thousand horses in the cottage, the number of people cannot be determined, it must be a lot of people." Trade Winds Literature Network
"They're in a good position to defend, so let's attack with fire."
Luo Yi came out with a large amount of fire oil, and the previous use of the spray train allowed them to accumulate a lot of experience in fire attack.
Even without the help of a train, besieging the cottage with fire oil can effectively trap the enemy, and the cottage is mainly made of wood all around, so they only need to wait to destroy the enemy.
"The general's method is good, once and for all, we just need to surround it."
Luo Yi's lieutenants all agreed.
The wind in the mountains had a great impact on the fire attack, and Luo Yi led the people to start acting that night, and when the night was dark and the wind was high, all the fire oil was poured into various places in the wooden village.
At the exit intersections, people were arranged to set up horse-blocking piles to block the road, and even soldiers and horses were arranged at the bluestone steps.
"Shoot the arrows!"
An arrow holding an oilcloth struck a flash of fire in the dark night and nailed it to the wooden fence, and in an instant the oil was ignited.
Soon the outskirts of the cottage turned into a sea of fire.
The war horse was startled by the firelight and kept neighing, and soon all the people in the cottage came out to put out the fire.
When there was a figure in the courtyard, the archers who had been prepared on the periphery launched an attack, and the flames were so bright that the figures could be seen more clearly, and as long as there were moving objects, they would be hit by arrows.
Yan Yunqi's archery hit rate was very good, and the people who came out were not spared, and when the people in the village found out that there were archers, the fire was not saved, and they all hid in the cliff cave.
"General Luo doesn't seem to be moving inside, it doesn't seem right."
As soon as he said this, he heard the soldiers on the cliff release the arrows.
"It's not good, the temple on the cliff is an exit."
The three holes of the cunning rabbit are worthy of digging graves, and there are really other exits.
Luo Yi didn't panic, he had already arranged for people and horses to guard it in advance, and when everyone came out of the temple, all of them were blocked by archers, and soon no one dared to come out.
"General Luo, the temple on the cliff has been controlled, but I don't know if they will have a way to escape."
The reminder of the deputy general around him is not unreasonable, after all, they are all digging graves, and it seems normal to be able to build a cottage to such a strange place, and want to dig a few tunnels.
In the land of mountains and forests, strange rocks are craggy, and it is too difficult to find the exit of the tunnel, so now I can only wait for dawn to search inside.
Searching in the big night turned out to their detriment.
After a night of waiting, the fire was extinguished after dawn, and when they entered, they saw hundreds of dead and wounded.
Most of the people ran away from the tunnel, and after letting people go down to check, they found that there were several roads in the tunnel, and Luo Yi didn't let people chase them for safety.
Instead, search for material finances first.
"General Luo found their treasure trove, and there are a lot of things in it." The lieutenant came over to inform.
Luo Yi entered a stone cave with fifty or sixty square meters, which was piled up with a large number of antiques, gold, silver and bronze, all piled up like a mountain.
"General Luo, the war horses outside have been counted, and there are five thousand war horses left."
"General Luo's loot this time is worth at least one million yuan, should we bring it back to Luo's house directly, or find a place to bury some of the things?"
Luo Yi said that it is false not to be moved, since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, if people are indifferent, the value of wealth may not be enough, and these things in front of him can already achieve a force.
