If he had to, Wei Chishun could actually answer Xiao Shilian's question.

Now the distance between the two people is only a hundred zhang, one on the hillside and the other down the hillside. The steep and steep two mountains are separated on both sides of this Sun's gate, and the road in the middle is suddenly wide, and from here continue to cross a small hillside is the basin, and the county town of Panlong is in this basin.

Because of the existence of this hillside, it is difficult to notice the existence of such a dangerous passage as Sunjiamen on weekdays, but fortunately, Xiao Shilian had already sent someone to map the terrain around the exit of this Micang Mountain before, and with the help of the people, he keenly noticed this passage from the map.

It comes out from the southwest of Mt. Micang and can be driven all the way to the city of Panlong County. And Li Xinchen's main direction of attack is east and south, so it is not impossible for Wei Chi Chen to hide his whereabouts.

However, whether it was Wei Chi Hui or Wei Chi Shun, they finally underestimated Li Xinchen and Xiao Shilian's understanding of this mountainous area, or they ignored the existence of the Ba tribes such as the Yu people and the Pu people.

In fact, it is reasonable to have such a thought, after the previous Bashu Rebellion, the Ba people have retreated into the mountains, even if there is almost no garrison in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, there has never been a report of interference by the Ba people, not to mention that now Li Xinchen is obviously at a disadvantage, in the eyes of normal people, it is not cost-effective for the Ba people to stand on Li Xinchen's side, it is better to wait and see the direction of the wind.

Even when Li Xinchen proposed to unite the Ba people, many of Li Xinchen's subordinates had such an idea. No matter how stupid the Ba people are, they can't throw themselves into the headwind. Even if Li Xinchen is whimsical, he only has expectations for this, it is best to have the help of the Ba people, even if he doesn't, he can't fight this battle!

It's just that everyone, including Li Xinchen, didn't expect that there would be a shortage of food for the Ba people, so they took the initiative to find Li Xinchen!

Therefore, when Wei Chi Hui was considering Li Xinchen's combat strength, he did not take the Ba people into account at all, and he did not expect that even if he chose such a remote exit, he happened to bump into Xiao Shilian by chance.

Wei Chishun stood at the mouth of the valley, standing on tiptoe to look ahead, but the hill was blocking his view, so that he couldn't see the Langzhong Basin in front of him at all.

"Where is the Great General now?" Turning his head a little anxiously, Wei Chishun asked the herald in charge of liaison beside him.

"There should be another day to go, and our baggage team encountered the enemy's scouts in Lengshuigou yesterday, so the general was afraid that the enemy would attack Lengshuigou, so he ordered to postpone the march and cover the baggage flanks." The herald hurriedly replied.

"One day." Wei Chishun frowned slightly, a day is not a long time, but if Wei Chi Yuan does not lead the army, his vanguard cannot rashly expose his whereabouts. At this time, Wei Chishun should be grateful for the hillside in front of him, at least it blocked the discovery of the mountain road behind him by the enemy scouts.

The weak winter sun on the horizon has sunk half into the mountains, and only the faint light of the slanting sun shines on the people's bodies, dragging out long shadows. Fortunately, the wind and snow have stopped, so Wei Chishun can lead his troops to rest for the night under this hillside.

It's just that Wei Chishun didn't know that this was just wishful thinking.

Just on the opposite hillside, a gaze was already fixed on him.

"It's been an hour," Xiao Shilian said spitting out the stalk of grass in his mouth, "tell the brothers, get ready to do it!" ”

On the hillside before, Xiao Shilian certainly found the enemy, but he didn't know how many of these troops there were, after all, he didn't have an advantage in troops, at most he could strike preemptively and raid, once there was a slight mistake, it would inevitably be the result of the annihilation of the whole army.

And now that the sky had gradually darkened, it was clear that night was the most favorable for the raid. No matter what the two or three thousand people in front of him are, Xiao Shilian is ready to eat them in one bite.

Just from the observation of the hillside, Xiao Shilian could already determine that the leader of this army should be the general who walked a few steps to this side with a group of guards just now, and he looked tall from a distance, not like an old man, it should be Wei Chishun, the son of Wei Chi Yuan.

Wei Chishun had obviously made up his mind to set up camp here.

It stands to reason that if you step up the march, you will be able to reach the city of Panlong County in the first half of the night, and these soldiers have rested for so long, and they have no intention of setting off again.

Although Xiao Shilian is not sure, he can vaguely guess that these should just be forwards, waiting for the main force behind him to follow up.

So that is to say, the enemy's main force is also taking this road, as long as it can eat this army and block this Sun family gate, it will also block the enemy's main force in the rice cang mountain, and can only turn!

Thinking of this, Xiao Shilian's eyes suddenly lit up, and the battle situation seemed to become clear in an instant.

Wei Chi Yuan wants to make a desperate gamble and rush forward with light troops, then he, Xiao Shilian, will block this door and see how he gets out!

At the foot of the hillside, the soldiers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty had completed the task of setting up camp, and a small camp blocked the mouth of the valley. For the Northern Zhou army, which will definitely pass through here in the future, it is still necessary to establish a simple camp as a transit place for baggage and the like.

The sky was dark, torches were lit one by one, the surrounding mountain walls reflected the firelight, and Wei Chishun's cheeks flickered because of the flickering firelight.

Looking at the soldiers who went to rest separately after finishing their work, Wei Chishun was always a little apprehensive in his heart, and looked back at the hill from time to time, and finally made up his mind: "Someone!" ”

The two war lords who were still following him hurriedly bowed their hands: "Here!" ”

"Send a few clever scouts over there to take a look at the hills." Wei Chishun said in a deep voice, "Be sure to be vigilant, don't startle the enemy's scouts when you encounter them, it's best not to be alarmed." ”

The two battle lords hurriedly agreed, and one of them couldn't help asking, "Does the general think that the enemy may be ambushing on the mountain over there?" Isn't that a bit too self-conscious? ”

The small hill is a hundred feet high, which is really small compared to the surrounding mountains. According to the scout intelligence, the soldiers and horses in Li Xinchen's hands should be three or four thousand, and most of them are in Tiangong Courtyard, so even if they really appear here, where can they have the courage to ambush far more enemies than themselves?

Now the soldiers are tired from a day's work, and they all want to rest, and if there are no special circumstances, no one wants to make such a trip.

Wei Chishun waved his hand neatly: "Don't slack off in this matter, move forward quickly, ······ quickly."

But his voice stopped abruptly, because he heard the howling wind.

And this is not windy at all······

The next moment, an arrow pierced the chest of a Northern Zhou soldier not far away.

Then the arrows rained down.
