Li Yuanhao, who is full of enthusiasm for fame, can't say it now. When I first walked on the path, everything was still smooth, the terrain was still flat, and the path that the hunter stepped on could be paralleled by four horses, but when I walked out of more than ten miles, the terrain gradually rose and fell, and slowly entered the mountainous area, and the road became narrower, and some sections could only be used for two horses in parallel, and there were thorns everywhere blocking the road, and the speed of the march began to slow down.

But when they walked more than ten miles, the front army simply couldn't walk. Just as he was wondering, a soldier from the front army came to report, and there was a pile of big stones blocking the way on the path ahead.

Li Yuanhao followed the soldier to check, and sure enough, on the way of the army's advance, a large pile of rocks that slipped down the hillside blocked the way of his army, thinking that this was the result of the loosening of the mountain, and there were really a lot of rocks and mud on the mountain, and it took some effort to move him away, but the road was narrow, and it was impossible for the army to bypass it, so he had to assign people to move away.

But difficulties arise, not to mention that there are no tools to take advantage of, even this narrow mountain road can not be placed by many people to do it together, only one team and one team take turns to do it, and the other teams can only stand by and watch.

Under Li Yuanhao's anxious urging, it took more than an hour to clear the road and the team to continue to move forward.

Advance again for a period of time, the mountain is more precipitous, up and down the mountain continuously, the road is more difficult to walk, some places can not ride a horse at all, can only get off the horse and lead the horse to go, what is more terrible is that those donkeys carrying things are still from time to time to make a mistake, see the road danger at all do not go, have no choice but to get off the horse to pull and whip, which makes everyone full of stinky sweat and spend a lot of effort.

In this way, Kankan walked more than ten miles, and did not want the horse of a sergeant in front of him to be caught by the hunter's camouflage trap in the middle of the road.

It's really *** unlucky, and I don't know which crazy this Orion is, what kind of trap is in the middle of the road? But come to think of it, it's already inaccessible, and the big beasts love to walk on the path that people have trodden on, so it's no wonder that the damn hunter is so lazy.

It took a lot of time to move the injured horse and clean up the beast trap like this, which really made Li Yuanhao angry, gritting his teeth and ruthlessly, and when he caught the big hunter, he would have to cramp and skin to vent his hatred, but there were only mountains and ancient forests in the wilderness, and no one could find anyone to vent and only curse a few words to vent.

After walking like this, the team stopped again after walking for a few miles, Li Yuanhao forcibly suppressed his anger and asked again; "What's up ahead?"

Some pro-soldiers reported; "Just now, someone from the front reported that a few old trees fell between the roads for some reason, blocking the road, and the brothers in front were moving, but the tree road was narrow and could not be manpowered, so we had to wait for a while."

"Let's go, take me to the front to see how things are going." Li Yuanhao said anxiously, squeezing through the line and rushing to the front.

I saw a few thick dead trees that several people hugged fell down in the narrow road, and a group of dismounted soldiers were surrounding them to find a way.

Looking at the number of lodgings, Li Yuanhao couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be artificial, or how could it be so coincidental? If it is artificial, then it means that the thief has calculated that he is going to take this road, and if so, his surprise attack strategy will not work, which is very fatal, and he has to figure it out.

Separated from everyone to check, those frustrated soldiers have avoided, Li Yuanhao around these trees to check, these are hundreds of years of several people can not hold the big tree, the roots have been seriously decayed, but the crown is too strong, there is no trace of artificial destruction of knives and axes at the fracture, it seems that the roots can not be loaded in the wind, so they fell, rest assured at the moment, ordered someone to find a knife and axe, cut off the big tree, and moved it separately.

Supervising the soldiers to move the big trees, during this period, Li Yuanhao frowned, looked at the path looming between the mountains and forests, couldn't help but feel irritable, looked at the sky was close to noon, calculated the marching mileage, but just walked about twenty miles, this is still the reason why the terrain was open when he just entered the path, according to the current marching speed, not to mention that even if it is five days and eight days, he can't walk more than two hundred miles, and even Zhang Yuan, who walks the main road, should climb to the Black Tiger Village and make great contributions.

Even if he rushed to the front of Zhang Yuan desperately, his cavalry would not be physically strong, and it was difficult to say that he had the strength to fight again, and it would be frustrating to think about it.

"Or go back, meet Zhang Yuan's gang and move forward together, even if you give him some credit." Li Yuanhao began to calculate for himself, and arbitrarily ordered the path to follow the path without knowing the investigation, and began to secretly regret it.

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the old soldier who followed him whispered; "Or let's go back, we don't know when it's going to be a head, not to mention that this road has been uninhabited for a long time, and I don't know how much trouble awaits me in front of me."

Another young soldier whispered to the old soldier at that time, and said with a stiff neck; "Dude, don't talk nonsense. Just after walking these roads, I have to retreat and go back to meet that Zhang Yuan, wouldn't we be underestimated by that guy, our brothers? In the future, Zhang Yuan and his subordinates will not ridicule us everywhere, I would rather die on this road than never look back, and be pickled by the villain's ambitious businessman. ”

When Li Yuanhao heard this, his heart moved, remembering his arbitrariness and resoluteness when he made the decision, and then imagining that he went back in disgrace, Zhang Yuan's gloating eyes were disgusted. Yes, how can he bow to the businessman who came to power with a few stinky money? Absolutely not.

The veteran retorted quietly; "But for the sake of this moment, isn't it worth it to let all the brothers suffer? What's more, I don't know how dangerous the road ahead is, and it is more likely that we will bring three days' rations, seeing that this speed is not enough to eat the ground, and when the division veterans are tired and hungry, how can they start a war with the thief? Don't let anyone beat us, if we starve, we will starve to death. ”

Li Yuanhao was gloomy again, what the veteran said was extremely true, looking at this speed, he said that he couldn't get out of this long valley for three days, and everyone was hungry without military food, but how could they fight?

The young soldier scoffed; "You are more and more cowardly, the more you live, the more you go back, thinking about us people, which one is not really a good man, and which one is not rolled out of the bloody rain? It's not once or twice to climb the ice and lie in the snow and endure hunger, which one will frown more than half of the time? What is the point of this hardship on the march? Let me go back and look at the gloating eyes of Zhang Yuan's gang of pickled goods, it is better to kill me with a knife now. The words were impassioned, and when he said this, he suddenly changed his words with joy; Besides, what are you afraid of if there is not enough military rations? Aren't the pack horses and donkeys behind them meat meat? Just ate up the grain of a pack horse and killed a pack horse, and also saved a burdensome army, anyway, it was all Zhang Yuan's silver from profiteers, and Lao Tzu was even happier to eat. When I go back and see that Zhang Yuan doesn't even have any horse hair, I must be very relieved, hahahaha. ”

Li Yuanhao was overjoyed when he heard this, "Yes, why don't you open up like this?" Aren't those pack horses and donkeys the best military rations? Eat it, what are you polite? ”

The young soldier was even more red-eyed; "I still want to compete for a lot of money in this great achievement, and at that time, it is better to show off in front of the little landlord when I return to my hometown, and see if he marries the orchid?"

Li Yuanhao was full of ambition when he heard this, and he must get this great achievement, so that he can turn the deputy chief soldier for many years into a regular, so that those colleagues who usually comment that I am a reckless man can see that I also know the art of war.

His mind fluctuated several times in the back and forth of the two soldiers, but now he strengthened his confidence. Nor did he turn back, and shouted loudly; "Brothers, hurry up and move the trees and clear the road, we must get rid of the delayed journey before dark, and then I will kill a few donkeys and drink with everyone to relieve their fatigue."

As soon as he said this, everyone imagined the deliciousness of the donkey meat in the sauce, and immediately burst into cheers, and everyone forgot their tiredness and became full of energy.

With the momentum, everything had speed, and after a while, the big tree was cut into several sections and thrown into the opposite river, and the army marched forward again amid a cheer.

But there is always some gap between the ideal and the reality, this is the unbreakable truth, the road is difficult to walk, and occasionally the road section is completely submerged by thorns, and there is no road, so those experienced veterans can only swing their knives and axes to chop out the road for the army to walk, so that the speed of the army walking is slower like a snail, so angry that Li Yuanhao from time to time with a whip to beat those soldiers who he thinks are lazy.

Although those soldiers worked hard and hard, they dared not speak out, and could only work harder.

Finally, I saw the road again, and the soldiers who were chopping thorns were almost paralyzed from exhaustion, and they had to be supported by their brothers before they could get on their horses.

It's good to say that when I was walking into a narrow valley, it may have been the sound of thousands of horses' hooves that shook the rocks that had long been crumbling on the cliff of the valley, and a rain of stones rumbled down.

Li Yuanhao thought that he had encountered an ambush by the thieves, and hurriedly suppressed the already panicked soldiers to form a formation to meet the enemy, but how could the thousands of soldiers in the narrow canyon be put away? For a while, the team was even more chaotic, and the sound of exclamation and howling was endless.

Just when Li Yuanhao and the other soldiers were in a panic, they didn't see the enemy's flag, nor did they hear the enemy's shouts of killing, except for the screams of their own men and horses in the valley, there was only the scream of the cold wind sweeping through the treetops, and there was half an enemy trace there?

It took a long time for Li Yuanhao to stabilize his mind and ordered a few soldiers in charge of patrolling the road to climb up the steep canyon to see the situation, and the soldiers immediately went trembling. Then send his men to investigate the casualties of the soldiers who were hit by falling rocks, and report back in a short time; "Lord Hui, in this rockfall, a total of five brothers were killed and eleven brothers were injured, of which three were seriously injured and eight were lightly injured."

Li Yuanhao frowned and was silent, this time the troops can be regarded as unlucky, now he has not even seen a single enemy, he has already lost more than a dozen brothers, even if the dead brothers are killed, the slightly injured bandages can also let them follow, but the three seriously injured are difficult to do, it is impossible to send them back, three soldiers need at least ten people to take care of and carry, but their hands are indeed very urgent, but carrying the march, it is bound to drag down the brigade, but it is also a delay in the fighter, stay in the local area, not to bleed to death, it must be food and clothing beast kiss, The death will be even more miserable.

Gritted his teeth and nodded his hand, he called a pro-soldier and said, "Go, help those three brothers to break off, and tell them that I will give their families a generous pension when I win a great victory." ”
