66 Bandits' Paradise Road
Easily eliminated the two guards, and Brother Ahei killed all the sleeping people in the wooden house next to him, counting exactly eight people.
"Two men went down to guard under the rocks, and someone came up and killed them all! As long as we hold this place, the people on the mountain are half blind! Brother Ahei ordered, and he carefully inspected the beacon tower, the top layer was wolf dung, and the bottom was a pile of wood, and there were two large clay pots filled with fierce fire oil. Brother Ahi threw two jars of fire oil down the cliff behind the mountain. It's not so easy to light damp firewood.
Snot walked with the carpenter for another day, and came to the foot of the first pass. The carpenter took seven of his men and secretly hid in the dense forest on the side of the road.
Snot took the remaining ten people along the mountain road and continued to go up a mile to the stone steps in front of the pass. This stone step is only two feet wide, the left side is a cliff, the right side is a mountain stone more than ten zhang high, and there are more than 50 steps, so this pass is also called Heaven Road. The pass is built into a three-zhang high wall with mountain stones, and the barracks inside the wall are guarded by more than 500 thieves! With this pass alone, it is difficult to attack even if thousands of troops and horses come! Because it can't be opened at all. In the past, the official army of Zhao State marched here many times, and they could only look at Guan Xing and sigh! The longest time, I confronted here for a year, and in the end it was in vain.
Snot and the others had just climbed along the stone steps to the gate, when they heard a loud shout: "Snot, why did it take so long to come back this time?" Were you not twenty-six when you entered the mountain? How come there are only sixteen people here? What about the others? ”
Snot was sent down the mountain as a spy because of his cleverness, and when he glanced at the person who spoke, he replied, "It's Captain Li!" Didn't your people tell you that there were Qin troops stationed everywhere outside the mountain and were not allowed to enter the mountain? We finally made countless detours and hid in Tibet before entering the mountains, of course, not as fast as before. Also, your people don't know how to count? When I entered the mountain, it was obviously twenty-eight, how did I count to twenty-six? The other twelve are from Nuwa Mountain. This time, it was thanks to their help that they escaped the pursuit of the Qin army, and I asked them to borrow the way back to Nuwa Mountain. We broke up early in the morning, what did your people do, didn't they report it to you? ”
Seeing that the snot was calm, Captain Li didn't doubt it anymore, and said, "Come in!" These people are getting worse and worse! If there are fewer people in the morning, I won't report it! ”
"It's finally back! I'm never going out of the mountain again, it's so dangerous that I almost can't come back! Hurry up and bring us some hot meals, we haven't had a good meal in a few days! Snot said.
On the morning when Brother Ah Hei took the beacon tower, Montenegro also began to enter the mountain with more than 6,000 people from the Qin army who had just surrendered and the Qin army who had just surrendered with 2,000 hunters. The crossbow machine is improved by the Mo family, the size is only half of the previous one, but the power is very strong, you can wind it first, aim at the target with one hand and then fire, which is very suitable for jungle and mountain combat! Behind the 6,000 people, there were 20,000 Qin troops in full armor to follow as a follow-up!
Since the beacon tower and the place in front of the first pass have been occupied. The scouts who reported the news were all captured. The bandits in the mountains have no way of knowing what's going on outside! Two days later, at noon, Montenegro finally came to the foot of the first pass and joined the carpenter.
"Since the morning, every hour, I have been able to catch two scouts who have come back to report the news, and fourteen have been caught! The carpenter said.
"How long does it take to rush up as fast as you can from here until it closes?" Montenegro asked.
"More than forty steps, a few breaths away!" The carpenter replied, "The most troublesome thing is that there is a beacon tower on the right side of the wall, which is guarded all day long, and as soon as the gate is moved, they will light the beacon fire, and they will give up all their work!" ”
"If we go up to the first batch of about a dozen people, it is okay to guard the gate, and there will be not enough people to grab the beacon! If you want to grab the beacon tower as soon as possible, and you have to guard the gate, at least more than 20 people must go up first! How can you go up so much without arousing suspicion? After Montenegro finished analyzing, everyone immediately began to ponder.
"There is a situation, someone is coming down on the mountain! There were about thirty of them! A scout came to report.
"Pass it on. Everyone hides, the bow is wound, every ten people aim at one person at the same time, they have to kill at the same time with one blow, this place is too close to the pass, they must not be allowed to shout! Montenegro ordered.
After a while, thousands of people were all hiding. More than 30 thieves walked into the encirclement with a smile and a smile! A thief suddenly hid in the bushes on the side of the road, unbuttoned his pants, and was about to make it convenient, when he suddenly saw several crossbow arrows facing him, his eyes widened in fright on the spot, he raised his hands, and his pants fell to the ground. I only heard the sound of a bowstring "whoosh", and saw that each thief was shot more than ten arrows at the same time, and they didn't have time to say a word, and all of them died on the ground. The bare-bottomed thief was so frightened that he pulled his pants.
The carpenter lifted him up in front of Montenegro with one hand, and saw him keep kowtowing to the ground and begging for mercy.
"What are so many of you doing down the mountain?" Montenegro asked.
"I ...... Let's go to the changing of the guard! The thief said.
"Take him down! This guy is so lucky, because he picked up a life in a hurry! Carpenter, go and pick two captives who are willing to perform meritorious deeds! I've got a way! ”
In a moment, the two captives were brought up with their backs tied, and the carpenter raised his hands, and two crossbow arrows pierced their crotches at the same time, and plunged deep into the trees behind them. The two were so frightened that their legs were weak and hurriedly begged for mercy!
With a wave of the Black Mountain Short Sword, he immediately cut the ropes on the two people! said, "What's your name?" I will give you the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, and if you dare to play tricks, it will be necessary for the lives of both of you! ”
"Spare your life! The two of us must obey the general's orders! No backtracking. My name is Stone! "My name is Da Niu!" The two men hurriedly said.
"Tomorrow morning, the two of you will take thirty people to pretend to be the ones who have been changed by them, just call to open and close the door!" Montenegro said.
"According to the normal situation, the door will be closed until dawn, and everyone will be seen before the door is opened. When it is dawn, let them see it, and we don't want to go in. One of the captives said.
"Isn't there a way you can get them to open the door sooner?" Montenegro asked again.
"Last time we came back from changing guards, because there was a wild boar on the road, and it was already dark when we arrived at the gate, didn't they also open the door when they saw the wild boar?" Another thief said.
The carpenter pointed to a dead boar lying on the ground and said, "This big boar rushed to me in the morning and was shot by me. Can you use it! After saying that, the carpenter drew his sword, cut open the belly of the wild boar, and cleaned the internal organs in three or two strokes, and his movements were very hot.
As soon as the day dawned, thirty Iron Eagle warriors, carefully selected from the lieutenant army, carried the wild boar, led by two surrendered thieves, and swaggered up to the pass.
"Open the door, we're back!" Stone shouted loudly.
"Stone, we've seen you earlier! How did you guys come back so fast? Don't you know if you can come in until dawn? The guards shouted.
"Open the door, we killed a wild boar yesterday and brought it back for everyone to change their taste! This guy weighs more than 200 pounds, and he's dead! Stone said.
"You wait two quarters of an hour, and the sun will come out, and you can come in!" The people inside still don't open the door.
"The sun came out early, and today the fog is so big that it's blocked! If you don't open the door, we'll carry you down the mountain and come back after eating! Stone said.
Seeing that the sky is about to dawn, it will soon be a goof. Da Niu also shouted: "Forget it, everyone carry it down the mountain, finish eating, and come back at noon tomorrow!" ”
"Let's go, let's go, go down the mountain!" The stone shouted. Everyone is going to go down the mountain, and if they don't go down the mountain, they can't do it, and when the day dawns, they will become someone else's trick.
"Stone, big cow, come back! Played a joke on you! Let's open the door! The people of the city shouted.
Black Mountain led a large group of men and horses to hear clearly under the stone steps, and signaled everyone to prepare to rush up.
The gate "squeaked" open, the carpenter's long sword waved, the two soldiers who opened the door immediately fell to the ground, five people immediately guarded the gate, twenty people rushed to the city wall from behind, and the big bull took the carpenter and other five people straight to the beacon tower! Immediately there was a sound of killing on the wall.
"Rush forward!" As soon as Montenegro gave the order, the team immediately formed a dragon and rushed to the Heavenly Road.
Everything went very well! Most of the bandits on the city walls were shot, and those who slept in the houses were captured alive! Lieutenant Li was wearing a trouser fork and just walked out of the door when he was pressed to his chest by a sword. Only a few people ran towards Erdaoguan.
Montenegro doesn't chase either, because a dozen or so people with snot will solve them at the second pass. "Everyone, hurry up and clean up the battlefield! Bring them in the lead! Shi Fatzi and the carpenter, the two of you will take 1,000 people to replace the snot, and Mi Long and Meatloaf will bring 3,000 people to control all the people nearby! ”
"No!" The generals will go away.
Captain Li was shirtless and was taken to Montenegro by the five flowers.
"If you want to kill quickly, hurry up, Lao Tzu will still be a good man in twenty years!" Captain Li shouted loudly, without the slightest fear on his face.
Montenegro saw Captain Li with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, a short beard and phoenix eyes, outstanding talents, and an early 40s age. Then he commanded: "Untie up, bring his clothes and put them on him!" ”
After a while, someone brought Captain Li's clothes and threw them to him to put on. Montenegro said: "I respect you for being a man, and I will give you two paths." One is that you die, and all your family members on the mountain are official servants. The second is to serve the country and strive to be a real captain or even a general in the future. ”
"Serving the country? Zhao Guo is dead! The common people have all become slaves of the tyrannical Qin! Do you want me to oppress the people for the Qin State? Captain Li said.
"Most of these Qin soldiers around you are the children of civilians in Taiyuan County and Yanmen County, you can ask them, but the Qin army has bullied a civilian, so I will let you go!" Montenegro replied.
"Captain Li, what the general said is the truth, the Qin army has transported countless grains to help the people survive the famine! also led everyone to build roads and water conservancy, and did not oppress the people! There are so many people coming down in the mountains, and you know it! A recruit from Taiyuan County said.
Captain Li thought for a while, knelt down on one knee, and said, "The sinner Li Yi is willing to join the Qin army and make meritorious contributions!" ”
"Good! Li Yi, we will be a family in the future! Do you have a way to win the second hurdle? Montenegro asked.
"There was a way, but I'm afraid that the matter here will soon spread to Erdaoguan, and it will be difficult!" Li Yi replied.
"Don't worry about this, more than a dozen of them have already been ambushed in front of the pass, and the people who go to report the news can't go to the front of the pass at all!" Montenegro laughed.
"Snot is also your person?" Li Yi looked surprised and said, "That's much simpler!" ”
"Prepare yourself, let's go right away!" Montenegro said.
"No!" Li Yi responded.
