In another situation, if you want to enter such a forest, not to mention that Guan Yu and the others will definitely have to stop it, Liu Tao himself doesn't want to come in.

The safest way is actually to burn this mountain forest directly with a fire, and see if the thieves inside can get out. What is the destruction of nature compared to the losses of your own army? These days, there is no environmental protection law!

At this moment, under the protection of the large army, Liu Tao entered this mountain forest, but his thoughts were elsewhere. The huge mountains and forests, from the thief camp to this side, are within his 'field of vision' for ten miles.

"Two hundred steps ahead, there is a thief's secret whistle......" Liu Tao said slowly.

When the commander of the crossbowmen heard this, he immediately arranged for ten crossbowmen to go over, and immediately shot and killed the thieves as soon as they discovered the secret sentry. The dark whistle couldn't figure out how he was discovered until he died.

Seeing that there was really a thief's secret whistle, while the tun chief was surprised, the people around him became even more in awe of Liu Tao. No wonder after coming in, he just asked everyone to be careful around, and did not deliberately order spies to be sent to investigate.

But the question is, how does the chief know where the thief is? It is precisely because I can't understand it that the awe in my heart is even stronger!

"One hundred and fifty steps to the northeast, there are spies of thieves......"

"There is an ambush of thieves in front of you, and the number of people is ...... hundred"

"A small army of thieves came around from the left, two hundred in number, there are archers, pay attention to guard!"

In an hour and a half, the large army only advanced five miles, and the thieves tried several times, but the result was in vain. The bows and crossbows went into battle repeatedly, and there were only a hundred or so people coming, and basically there was not enough to stuff the teeth.

The sword and shield soldiers and pikemen were really depressed, and after walking for a long time, they didn't even have to drink soup.

"It's still three miles away from the thief camp, I need to take a rest......" Liu Tao said suddenly, "Everyone stay on guard, the enemy will appear from around at any time." ”

"Brother, are you alright?" Guan Yu stepped forward and asked with concern.

In his opinion, using the 'Heavenly Eye' like this all the time should also consume mana, and if it is consumed excessively, it is not surprising that it will have an impact on the body. What he was most worried about was what would happen next if his mana was depleted.

"It's okay, I've been acting as a lookout, I'm just a little tired." Liu Tao didn't hide it either.

The people of this era are really lovely, especially the importance of loyalty, which is far from being understandable to modern people.

Let's just talk about Guan Yu, what about his ability? He is a fugitive, if not a squire, and according to the general trajectory, it will be difficult for him to get ahead. Not to mention Zhang Fei, the appearance score does not mean that it is very difficult to be outstanding with such an appearance.

Just because he proposed the idea of forming a militia group together and making contributions together, and then took this opportunity to form brothers with different surnames, including Lu Yan, he almost unconditionally believed in himself.

Even if they say that they want to get to that position when necessary, they support themselves unconditionally. There may also be conditions, but this condition, of course, will only appear after you ascend to that position.

When he said these words in the barracks, he was actually a bet, betting that the three of them would really support him unconditionally according to history or the same as recorded in the romance. So far, it seems that the bet was really right.

In fact, he also considered that even if the bet was wrong at that time, it was nothing, and the interests of the four were already tied together. Quitting halfway through this kind of stupid thing, only a fool would do it.

The result of betting on the right one, needless to say, is that he saved a lot of trouble in many things. For example, if you suddenly come up with some new technology, suddenly come up with some new ideas, or even make some amazing 'predictions', they will believe it.

Compared to other peers, it is better to do something to cover up, or simply ignore the unreasonable.

"I see, brother, rest well, I'll take care of the guard." When Guan Yu got the reply, he was a little relieved, replied, and then immediately led people to be on guard around.

The thieves too, perhaps several temptations, were directly repelled by the crossbowmen, and even killed the relationship, but for as long as two quarters of an hour, no one was sent over. After resting for a while, Liu Tao also felt that it was about the same, so he continued to hurry.

"Brother, there seems to be no road in front of you...... Ten minutes later, the army came to a jungle, Liu Tao said that he wanted to go here, Guan Yu looked at it, the path was on the side, there was only vegetation in front of him, there was no road.

"The enemy's camp is three miles ahead, and it takes five miles to make a detour, so it's better to walk directly from here." Liu Tao also said what he thought.

"I see...... Get out of the way! Guan Yu was stunned when he heard this, and immediately ordered the soldiers to open the way.

There were no baggage troops in this sortie, and the soldiers set off with dry rations for two days. It is precisely because there is no drag of the baggage troops that the soldiers have a lot less worries and it is much easier to move.

On the other hand, the thieves' spies naturally also discovered Liu Taobu's traces, and the key spies couldn't figure out why the other party suddenly started to open the road in the middle of the way.

Originally, in the valley ahead, they had already prepared an ambush, and the rocks were ready. But if the other party doesn't leave, then the ambush is equivalent to a waste.

Later, after a careful investigation, I immediately understood why the other party changed lanes halfway and directly opened a road. The reason is too simple, because the other party actually came straight to their camp!

"What do you say? The other party is coming directly in the direction of our camp? The thief general Yan Zheng asked in disbelief.

"From the direction they are traveling, it is true...... "the spy hurriedly replied, "and they have come straight away, and the direction has not shifted at all!" ”

In the general situation, when people open the road, there will often be some deviation in the position, and within a certain range, for example, within three miles, the straight line will slowly bend, and finally in about ten miles, it will be spared back.

Many people get lost in the forest, in fact, because the sense of direction is not correct, the surrounding environment is too monotonous, the key is that there is no sign to recognize the direction clearly, and it is natural to get lost.

The problem Liu Taobu has no such concerns, he has been calibrating the position, and as long as there is a deviation, he will correct it immediately, so that the troops have been advancing, and they are about to reach the side of the thief camp.

"Call the brothers who are in ambush back, and the others will fight with me!" Yan Zheng had no choice but to order. There were 2,000 people sent out to ambush, and there were less than 1,000 people in the camp at the moment, and he was a little panicked.

In less than a minute, as the road was completely opened, the sword and shield soldiers at the beginning found that an open field and a camp appeared in front of them, and appeared in sight.

"Did we really get to the thieves' camp?" Many soldiers suddenly exclaimed.

"Everything, can't escape my eyes......" Liu Tao said slowly with a profound look.
