The two brothers were talking, and someone came to report, and Han Kuang, the leader of Bai Shijie's family, asked to see him.

Bai Shijie suddenly stood up from the chair and said eagerly: "Quick, let him in." ”

Suddenly, a tall middle-aged man walked into the hall, this person was the old general who rode forward on the way to West Zhuangzi that day when Bai Shijie's convoy came to West Zhuangzi, blocking the greedy gaze of the foreign cavalry looking at Bai Shijie's concubine.

Seeing Han Kuang walk in, Bai Shijie took two steps forward and asked, "How?" ”

Seeing Han Kuang's slightly evasive look, Bai Shijie's heart sank.

I only heard Han Kuang say: "Master, when I touched the beacon sentry tower, it was already empty. ”

"What?"

Han Kuang said again: "When we found that sentry post, there was no one inside, and it seemed that no one had taken care of it for a month. ”

This news was beyond Bai Shijie's expectations, the location of the wind and fire platform arranged by Chen Xian was very good, and it could almost monitor the entire Yiyuan Plain, but he didn't expect the other party to give up such a good pier.

This is very troublesome for Bai Shijie, if Chen Xian simply gave up the pier, it is better to say, if the other party changes the position of the pier, it will be troublesome.

The reason why Bai Shijie wanted to attack that pier was to block Chen Xian's ears and eyes, if the other party changed the location of the pier, and he couldn't find the location of the new pier, then he couldn't achieve the purpose of blocking the other party's ears and eyes, which was a considerable obstacle to Bai Shijie's future plans.

Will Chen Xian simply abandon the pier and not set up a new pier? It's impossible to think about.

Bai Shijie pondered for a moment and said to Han Kuang: "You find some hunters and continue to search near the pier, maybe the other party will move the pier to other places nearby." ”

After Han Kuang left, Bai Shijie said to Bai Shijun again: "Big brother, you ask the steward below to contact the nearby Orion Boss and reward Chen Xian for the location of the outpost. ”

Seeing that his younger brother looked grim, Bai Shijun did not dare to delay, and immediately ordered someone to send the housekeeper who was responsible for purchasing mountain goods at home, and ordered the matter to continue.

The reason why Chen Xian wanted to remove the pier platform located at the waist of the Yiyuan Plain was because the position of this pier platform was too forward, and there was a West Zhuangzi between it and the East Zhuangzi, and it didn't matter if it was hidden in the mountains and forests when it was not exposed, it had been used once before, and after the location was exposed, it became very dangerous, so Chen Xian gave up this place after using this pier once, and transferred the new pier platform to the south of the woods between the East and West Zhuangzi, on a mountain peak in the south of Yin.

The new pier could only see part of the western half of the Yiyuan Plain, but once the slightly larger team crossed the middle bottleneck of the plain, it would be placed under the watchful eye of this pier.

Bai Shijie spent the whole day in anxiety.

If you can't pull out the pier set up by Chen Xian, Bai Shijie's arrangement will be in vain.

Fortunately, in the afternoon of this day, the steward of the Bai family who was in charge of collecting the mountain goods sent good news, and sure enough, there were hunters in the mountains who knew the location of Chen Xian's new pier.

The new pier is located on a mountain peak on the south bank of the Yi River.

The pier was originally the courtyard of an Orion family, and later the Orion family moved to Chen Xianxin Zhuangzi, Chen Xian sold this Zhuangzi, built several beacon piers in the Orion courtyard, and stationed a team of Zhuang Ding.

The reason why this hunter knows these things is because he has a relationship with the hunter who set up the pier, today this hunter happened to come to the Bai family market outside the West Zhuangzi to sell mountain goods, and heard that the white shopkeeper offered a heavy reward for the location of the pier outside the East Zhuangzi Chen Yuan, he didn't think much about it, so he sold the location of the pier at a price of ten taels of silver.

asked what happened, Bai Shijie couldn't help but stroke his palm and smile: "It seems that this providence is on me......"

Bai Shijie immediately ordered someone to find Han Kuang.

After Han Kuang arranged for the hunters to continue searching near the old pier platform in the morning, he returned to Zhuangzi with his men to wait for his master's order.

After giving an extra ten taels of silver, the hunter who betrayed the location of the pier took Han Kuang and his men and walked towards the new pier overnight......

Early the next morning, Bai Shijie, who hadn't slept well all night, finally waited for Han Kuang's good news.

At this meeting, Han Kang said as soon as they met: "Fortunately, I don't disgrace my life." ”

Hearing this, Bai Shijie let out a long breath, only to feel a faint in front of him.

Although it is not a big deal to take Chen Xian's outpost, it is a very critical node in Bai Shijie's strategy, and if it cannot be completed, it will lead to the inability to implement his entire plan.

Bai Shijie struggled back to the chair, sat down, and rested for a moment before continuing to ask: "Have the signal means of communication between the outpost and Dongzhuangzi been tortured?" ”

Han Kuang said: "It's all tortured, Zhang Tou's methods are really ruthless, I can't stand it......"

Speaking of this, Han Kuang suddenly sighed and said, "I don't know what benefits Chen Er gave those children, under such torture, there are people who can resist it!" Life and death tortured three to death before prying open the mouths of the last two. ”

Bai Shijie glanced at Han Kuang with some surprise, he is the leader of the family with a calm nature, he is silent, when he talks about things, he always asks what he answers, and never says much, but today he is a little abnormal, it seems that last night's incident had a great impact on him.

Bai Shijie followed Han Kuang's words and asked, "So, there are only five people guarding that outpost?" ”

Han Kuang shook his head and said, "No, there are eleven people, this is called a squad under Chen Shuang." Six of them were killed when we had attacked. ”

"These people reacted very quickly, we only woke up the other party with a slight negligence, and the other party immediately organized a counterattack, if it weren't for the fact that we ambushed a lot of crossbowmen outside, maybe the other side would have set the beacon on fire."

"Of the six people killed by the other side in battle, four were shot dead when they rushed to the beacon tower."

"These half-grown children, the fight is not like words, we have taken the lead, but there are more people killed than the other party, seven dead, six injured, and three of the six injured are afraid that they will not be able to be saved."

Han Kuang's words were quick and urgent, obviously his mood was extremely uncalm.

Although he was also very surprised that more than half of his subordinates were killed or wounded, for Bai Shijie, as long as he took the outpost and tortured out the contact information between the outpost and the new Zhuangzi, even if it was done, even if the generals were all dead, it would be worth it.

comforted Han Kuang and sent him out, Bai Shijie called another general who had been waiting for a long time, and ordered him to quickly deliver the news to the generals of the Bai, Tang, Li, and Xu families and block the trade route.
