The battle on the eastern edge of Lushan had begun, and General Yan Lao launched an attack on the bandits hiding in the mountains, and the officers and soldiers and the mountain bandits were tightly bitten together. After all, there are many officers and soldiers. The mountain bandits retreated again and again, and retreated into the mountains.

"Here we go again." General Yan knew that this was a planned retreat by the mountain bandits, and they wanted to lead the officers and soldiers to a narrow part of the road, and then encircle and annihilate them. ”

General Yan put away his troops and stepped back.

The first group of bandits in the cottage nest have come out and are supporting to the east, but the number is not as large as Wang Laohu thought. "This group of mountain bandits is to support the war in the east, it seems that the east has already started fighting, but this old fox has only sent four or five hundred bandits, and wants to rely on the narrow area in the east to defend the east, it seems that the pressure on the Yang and Lei departments in the south is greater." Wang Laohu read.

The officers and soldiers and mountain bandits in the east sometimes advanced by officers and soldiers, and sometimes by mountain bandits, and were in a battle of pulling strongholds.

Another group of mountain bandits came out of the cottage. There were less than 100 men, and it seemed that they were going to support the war in the east.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of mountain bandits went out of the walled gate.

"Childe, there are four or five hundred of these mountain bandits, and it seems that the war in the south has begun." Rong Yu said.

The Yang Department and the Lei Department in the south could have arranged four or five hundred troops, if what the thieves said last night was true, the Yang Department only contributed half of the troops, then now the two departments add up to less than three hundred troops, and this time the bandits dispatched four or five hundred people, in terms of numbers, the Yang and Lei departments are at an absolute disadvantage, coupled with the unfamiliarity of the terrain, Wang Laohu can't help but be a little worried, "I hope that the Yang Department and the Lei Department can hold this south." Wang Laohu read.

"Childe, we're here." At this time, Chang Yuchun and Qishun arrived.

"Great, this mountain bandit has gone out in several groups, and the interior of this cottage is relatively empty, so we will take advantage of the present to enter the cottage." Wang Laohu said.

"Childe, I'll be a pioneer." Chang Yuchun took the initiative to ask for help.

"No, it's better to be explored by the personal guards first, although there are not many bandits here, but we are not familiar with the cottage, do not rush straight in, our two groups of people and horses must cooperate with each other, especially pay attention to the archers."

The two groups of people and horses touched the gate of the cottage one after the other, the Wang Laohu group was in front, and the Chang Yuchun group was behind. The door is closed at this point.

"Childe, this door is closed, what should I do?" Often meet the spring road.

If you break in, you will alarm the bandits inside. Wang Laohu looked at the mountain gate, the wooden door, there were some gaps, through the door, there were two mountain bandits by the door inside, leaning against the door, and then look, the square inside was empty, there seemed to be no other mountain bandits.

"There are two mountain bandits guarding the door inside, and at first glance, there are no mountain bandits in other visual ranges." Wang Laohu said.

"Two mountain bandits, childe, let's turn in through the door and directly solve the two mountain bandits." Often meet the spring road.

"We'll find out if there are any other outposts or other archers hiding here." Rong Yu said.

"Yes, it's a war now, although it's empty, it's still on alert, let's investigate it first before we act." Wang Laohu said. Not far away, there is a slightly taller tree, with branches and leaves still there, and it is covered with snow, but it can be used as a shelter to see what is going on.

Wang Laohu and the others were wearing protective white today, and he jumped up, climbed the tree, and pressed the cat tightly on the tree, looking in from a high place through the gap. The two sentries at the gate were not visible in the trees, but the whole square was very clear, there was no one in the square, there was a watchtower on the left, and on the watchtower there was a mountain bandit with a bow in his hand, looking into the distance.

These are the only three people you can see here, and after sneaking in, you have to deal with the two at the door, and then touch over from the left to deal with the archers on the watchtower.

On closer inspection, nothing else was found. Wang Laohu jumped down from the tree softly, "The situation inside has been seen clearly, except for the two sentry posts at the door, there is a watchtower three or four feet away from the left, and there is an archer on it. We need to deal with the two bandits at the gate first, and then touch the bottom of the watchtower and take out the archers. ”

"This archer is on the watchtower, I'll deal with it." Rong Yu said.

Rong Yu's strength is a secret weapon, and it seems that Rong Yu is the best person to solve him.

"Two people at the door, let's go." Two personal guards.

"Okay." Wang Laohu said, "You first climb the right wall and enter, I see a dead end over there, the two sentry posts can't see it, but the archers of the watchtower can see it, so you just have to pay attention to the people on this watchtower." ”

"Yes, Childe. After the two sentry posts are solved, you open the door, don't open it too much, and let Rong Yu go in and deal with the archers on the watchtower. ”

Three personal guards came to the wall on the right, and one of them climbed a tree, covered by branches and snow, and watched closely at the archers on the watchtower.

The archer reversed, his gaze already looking to the other side, and the personal guard signaled to the guard in the right corner to climb over the wall.

One of the guards landed on one knee, one foot bent at a ninety-degree angle, and his hands rested on his knees, while the other ran a little bit, put his feet on his hands, and with the help of his hands and the wall, rolled over the wall, and the second guard did the same.

The two guards touched the side of the gate, and the two guards were chatting in private, and when the two guards were not paying attention, the guards grabbed the neck of the gate post from the back and twisted it to the right, only to hear a "cluck" sound, and the neck of the gate guard was immediately broken.

When the other sentry saw this situation, he knew that something was wrong. But it was too late to shout, the guards had already grabbed him firmly, and a dagger slashed through his neck, and a puff of blood flowed from his neck.

The door was opened a little, and Rong Yu rolled in from outside.

Rong Yu touched the watchtower from the left, and when he was about to get to the bottom, the archers of the watchtower found that the two sentries at the door were missing, he raised his bow and arrows, pulled up the bow, he looked at it, and said, "These two sentry, I don't know where they ran again?" Now that the war is so tight, there is still a small escape. ”

He shouted a little louder: "What are you doing at the door, two of you?" There are good things, don't forget me. "You know, the two at the door won't answer him anymore.

Rong Yu saw the opportunity to throw out a hidden weapon, which hit the archer's heart. With an "ahh

The people inside were settled, and the people outside all entered the square.

"Now divide into two groups to enter the village, capture Lu Qiubai alive, and fight quickly."

Wang Laohu and Chang Yuchun entered the search from two directions.

Wang Laohu came to the council hall, there was no one here, presumably these little leaders had gone out to deal with the officers and soldiers. There is no one in the council chamber, where will he be?

Wang Laohu and others searched for other places.

"This is supposed to be a gathering place for mountain bandits." Rong Yu said.

It is not difficult to see that the beds side by side are equivalent to a collective dormitory, and this side should be the place where the general mountain bandit Luo Luo sleeps. His direction should be wrong, this Lu Qiubai should be on the other side. The side that often meets spring. Wang Laohu immediately led people to search in the other direction.

Chang Yuchun was already confronted by Lu Qiubai.

This Lu Qiubai knew at a glance that he was not a good person, with a pair of sharp triangular eyes, two beards, at this time he was carrying a knife on a woman's neck, and there were seven or eight mountain bandits on both sides.

This woman is a hostage. This Lu Qiubai is cunning, and he is dying, and he has to pull a cushion.

Wang Laohu has already arrived.

"Childe, this Lu Qiubai is not as simple as he imagined, it turns out that he has been prepared, and this is the girl he snatched a few days ago." Often meet the spring road.

"How do you know that?" Wang Laohu asked.

"This is what Lu Qiubai told me personally just now."

Wang Laohu looked at it, the woman in Lu Qiubai's hand was not very old, like a village girl, she was a little scared under Lu Qiubai's hostage, and she didn't even dare to look at Wang Laohu.

"Lu Qiubai, you are now surrounded by us, and the little strength you have in your hands alone is not enough to deal with us, I advise you to let this girl go." Wang Laohu said.

"This hero, I, Lu Qiubai, am also a well-known figure on this Lu Mountain, although the grass is now falling, it is also a big boss, and there are thousands of people under him, just with you people, you can also move me."

"Don't be reckless, aren't all these people of yours going out to deal with the officers and soldiers? They won't be able to come back for a while. ”

"It seems that all this is your trick, you deliberately made a feint in my Lushan Mountain, and then sneaked up the mountain."

"Lu Qiubai, if you do too much injustice, you will kill yourself, do you think that with this Lushan natural danger, others will not be able to help you. You gathered a crowd as a bandit, committed many injustices, and killed 28 lives of passing merchants in vain, this is not a failure to report, when the time comes, all of this will be reported. ”

"It seems that you are from the government, I have dealt with the government so many times, I didn't expect it to be planted in your hands today."

"Lu Qiubai, let go of the girl in your hand." Often meet the spring road.

"Let it go, I won't let it go, you have the ability to rob it yourself, if you move, I'll kill him." Lu Qiubai instinctively stepped back, and seven or eight mountain bandits stood in front of Lu Qiubai.
