Chapter 143: Hunting

Nanping Mansion is located in the border area of Daqi, where it is mostly mountainous and hilly, dense with jungles, heavy rainfall, sultry climate, and sparsely populated, with less than one-tenth of the population of Daqi. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In modern times, it can be said to be a good place to recuperate.

However, this is Daqi, which is extremely backward in science and technology, and it is not suitable for human survival, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a poor mountain and bad water.

In the middle of the vast jungle, more than a dozen people were slowly moving forward.

These people, dressed in the clothes of the Great Qi army, gathered together, walked cautiously, and from time to time looked at the surroundings, for fear that someone would kill them from the trees.

They are really frightened by these environments here, since they came here, they have encountered a predicament that they have never encountered before, the poisonous snakes and beasts in the jungle, the mist and miasma, all the time bothering them.

And the most important thing is the hidden enemy, the ethnic group living in Nanping Province, these people are as cunning as monkeys, they can climb trees and cliffs, and they can cross rivers and swim rivers, and they are also very agile.

"What the hell, I've followed them here, why are they gone?"

One of the leading officers and soldiers muttered to himself, they had managed to track those people for nearly twenty miles, but they disappeared in the blink of an eye when they arrived here.

The sweltering and humid weather in the jungle came into play, and these people had to wipe the sweat from their foreheads from time to time, but they must not be taken lightly, and if they were not careful, they could lose their lives here.

"Captain, why don't we go back, we are already about to go deep into the enemy's hinterland, and it will be dangerous if we go any deeper, and besides, this place is a bit evil."

An officer and soldier from behind stepped forward and whispered in the ear of the leading officer and soldier.

The leader looked around, a little moved, but still bit his chapped lip and said,

"We have been dragged by these people for three months, and if we continue like this, we will be dragged down, we have chased them here, as long as we can find their lair and report to the army, then they will be finished, so we must not give up our efforts, everyone persists, we will definitely win."

Yes, they must not give up, in order to exterminate this group of bandits, how many brothers' lives have been paid by the army, and those who were still talking together yesterday have become cold corpses today.

Not to mention for the sake of the country, even for the sake of the dead brother, this revenge cannot be avenged.

As for the addition of officials to knighthood...... If you don't die, it's already the greatest gift!

Hearing the captain's words, the people behind him also nodded heavily, everyone is a veteran of a hundred battles, life and death have long been put aside, since they are here, they will not retreat because they are afraid.

But they didn't see it, and there were people staring at them in the trees not far away.

The eyes of these people were as if a poisonous snake was staring at its prey at the same time, and at a cursory glance, there were about thirty people here.

Most of these people painted their bodies with the juice of plants and trees in order to hide themselves in the jungle and to get rid of poisons.

Therefore, like the officers and soldiers on the other side, they looked much more jerky, with black and red costumes, and they saw these officers and soldiers at a glance in the jungle. These are the enemies that these officers have to deal with.

But what these officers and soldiers don't know is that these people have already discovered them and are leading them step by step into the trap of harvesting life.

Seeing that these officers and soldiers were advancing towards the trap they had set up, a cruel smile appeared on the corners of the mouths of those who painted camouflage patterns.

There were even some people who secretly licked their lips, showing a look of longing, and there was only one concept in their hearts...... The hunt has begun!

"Be careful, everyone, there may be traps laid by the enemy here......"

"Ah!!h The captain looked at the jagged ground and said cautiously, but before he could finish speaking, a cold arrow had already been shot into the heart of his companion, and the man shook and fell.

"Quick, hide!" The captain reacted in an instant and shouted loudly.

But it was too late, and a large net fell from the tree, enveloping them all, and then a great wave of cold arrows was fired.

"Poof" The brother who spoke just now next to the captain was also hit by an arrow, and he didn't even make a muffled snort and was silent.

"Ahh The people around him were all shot and fell one by one, and several brothers had already died in an instant.

"Bastard!" The captain let out a low snort, looked at the direction where the sharp arrows were coming from not far away, drew his saber, and cut through the large net that trapped them.

Up to this point, there were only seven or eight of them left, but they didn't even see each other's shadows.

Maybe I'm going to die here, right? The thought crossed the captain's mind, and he immediately waved his saber and rushed in the direction where the sharp arrow had come from.

I have already entered the ambush of the other party, and I don't want to run away today, but even if I die, I have to pull a few people to back my back.

The captain threw the saber out, and the sharp blade grazed the branches, advancing unhindered, and in an instant, blood spilled out, and a human head fell from the tree.

But the next moment, the captain couldn't escape the other party's cold arrow, and fell straight to the ground.

Behind him, there were also more than a dozen young bodies, flowing with the same bright red blood......

Lin Chi, a small county in Nanping Province, outside this county seat, there are endless camps of the army, and in the middle of these camps is the most important marshal tent.

In the huge tent, a middle-aged man was pacing anxiously around the hanging map, his brows tightly knit into a Sichuan character.

Finally, I sat down helplessly.

"Dashuai!" At this moment, a voice came from outside the account, and without waiting for the man to answer, a man hurried in.

"How's the guy sent out to track it down?" Seeing the person walking in, the middle-aged man in the handsome tent asked in a deep voice.

This person is the commander of this southern expedition, Mingtai.

If you talk about Mingtai, you can be regarded as a senior general in Daqi.

He has led troops for more than ten years, and although he cannot be called a hundred victories, he is known for his steady combat and is good at taking advantage of the general situation to defeat the enemy.

But this time the enemy made him distressed, because these people were different from what they had seen before.

These people are the local people of Nanping Prefecture, but they are in the border area of Daqi, so although there are thousands of years of unification, this place has not been able to develop.

So they still have more barbarism in their hearts than in other regions.

This time, because the people of Liangguo bribed them with a lot of money and tricked them into forming their own country within the territory of Daqi, so that they could live a better life.

Although these people were physically superior to people from other regions, they were easily encouraged by others, and with the fact that Liangguo provided them with many necessities of life, they captured the nearby county town as soon as their brains were hot.

The defenders lived in the city, where they were the opponents of the people who had been in the mountains all year round, so they could easily have taken them.

In the end, it alarmed the imperial court, and only then did Mingtai be sent here to suppress the bandits.

But as it stands, the situation is far from optimistic.

"Alas...... I just received news that our people were wiped out by them in the process of tracking, and they also cut off the heads of the soldiers and ordered them to be sent back! (To be continued.) )
