Zhang Yu thought for a moment and replied: "There is no other way, since the monster has a ten-strong ability, then you can't fight with them in close combat, the best way is to open the distance and shoot them with firecrackers and crossbow arrows, and use our flying feather battalion to kill them." ”

Yao Guangqi immediately denied Zhang Yu's idea: "No, this monster also has a characteristic, that is, it is not afraid of pain, I injured its arm with a sword, that thing is not painful at all, rushed up and continued to fight hard, without being affected at all." If you open the formation, with the speed and agility of this monster, more than two hundred steps can rush up unscathed, our crossbows and firecrackers are only two hundred, and we are not sure how many can be killed in two hundred steps. If you let the Flying Feather Battalion deal with them on the horse, in order to hit accurately, you must put it close before you can release the gun, this monster is agile, and it is not slower than the horse to run with all its strength, once the crossbow and fire gun are not accurate, it is easy to be approached by them, then our losses will be great. ”

Zhang Yu thought about it and felt that it made sense, so he stopped talking.

Yao Guangqi continued: "It suddenly occurred to me that we take it for granted that the elite soldiers are these monsters, so we have preconceived ideas, this is not good, we must know their true situation, know ourselves and the enemy." ”

Zhang Yu smiled and said, "Are you going to go by yourself?" I'd better send someone to find out where they are first, or where else can you go to find the Yuan army camp. ”

"Just look for water." Yao Guangqi replied confidently.

Yao Guangqi miscalculated this time, and after the scouts inquired, they reported a situation that was very puzzling to both him and Zhang Yu, that the Yuan army was not camped near the river, but in a place that no one expected: at the foot of a mountain.

This camping site, which violated the common sense of the art of war, aroused Yao Guangqi's interest, and he immediately set off to confirm that, according to the scout, he had successfully found the mountain where the Yuan soldiers were stationed.

This is a very special mountain, the grass and trees on the mountain are very sparse, looking at it from afar, gray and abrupt, it looks very desolate, only to find out when you get closer, the reason why the grass and trees are scarce, is because this mountain is different from other mountains, this is a stone mountain, the whole mountain is stone from top to bottom, some sections are large and large only stones, but even if it is such a stone mountain, there are still one or two plants and trees from the stone cracks tenaciously growing, growing, it is really people have to admire the perseverance of life.

In the midst of the green mountains, there is such a stone mountain with almost no grass, and the other party actually camps not in the water source, but concentrates the army on the stone mountain, which is really strange.

Yao Guangqi took out the dry food from his arms and took a bite hard, such a bare mountain, it must be discovered during the day, and it will only be said at night.

When he really came to the foot of the mountain, Yao Guangqi had a first-hand experience that this is not a bare mountain.

Through the faint moonlight, you can clearly see that all around are stones, the smallest is the size of a fist, the big one can't be hugged by two people, of course, the most are medium-sized stones larger than a human head.

Although they are all stones, most of them are staggered, so stepping on them does not collapse and slide, but makes people feel unusually sure.

In order not to alarm the Yuan army camp in front of the mountain, Yao Guangqi, out of prudence, chose to detour the mountain from the slope on the back of the camp, and was very careful along the way, vigilantly observing the surrounding situation.

Suddenly, there were two black shadows shaking in front of him, Yao Guangqi stopped wittily, he didn't make any movements, he stood still, completely relying on the cover of the night, slowing down his breath and staring at the black shadow in front of him.

The two black shadows should not have seen Yao Guangqi, they also stood still, and muttered a series of words, the two of them spoke by no means Mongolian, but not Chinese, so Yao Guangqi judged that these two people were very likely to be local Yi people, and after talking for a while, they turned around and ran towards the mountain.

Yao Guangqi stopped for a while, continued to walk forward, and walked to the place where the two of them stayed just now, a sour smell choked into his nose, grandpa's, these two Yi people came out to pee.

Then I walked up the mountain, about half a mile, and suddenly four faint bright spots appeared in front of me, and on closer inspection, they were clearly four tall towers.

Yao Guangqi was more careful, slowly approaching the tower, he gently touched the place less than ten steps away from the tower, and then he saw clearly, this is actually an arrow tower, the arrow tower is built very high, from the bottom to the top of the full three floors, and the base and the first floor are very wide, the base is square, and the depth of the opening is thirty steps up.

At the top of the arrow tower is an open lookout and a battlement of arrows, lit with oil lamps that are not too bright, flickering and flickering, and can only barely illuminate the platform above. The faint bright spot I saw just now was obviously this oil lamp.

The stage was guarded, and occasionally a figure swayed in front of the lamp, but the people above were obviously not very alert, and no one paid attention to the surroundings and below the arrow tower.

Yao Guangqi jumped up, lightly landed on the outer edge of the window on the second floor, grabbed the gap in the wood with both hands, slowly leaned down, and looked inside along the narrow window, the space inside the arrow tower was very large, it was an open hall, and an oil lamp was lit in the middle of the hall that was not too bright, and it was vaguely seen that there were more than a dozen people inside, all of whom were lying on the small low bed on the other side.

Just when Yao Guangqi was about to jump off, he suddenly heard several consecutive "oh oh" howls in the distance, which sounded particularly harsh in the dark night.

Yao Guangqi was worried that he would leak, so he moved his head to the side slightly, but the people inside didn't look at Yao Guangqi at all, everyone got up quickly, and when they got up, they all picked up a thick stick with a rope in their hands, and hurriedly ran downstairs, and a few people were still talking in their mouths while running.

At this time, the people on the three floors above also began to shout, and then they heard another chaotic sound of the stairs, and the people above also began to run down.

Yao Guangqi jumped up, landed gently, hid in the shadow of the arrow tower and looked forward, only to see a group of people running out of the other arrow towers in a hurry, all of them also holding thick and long sticks in their hands, and the front end of the stick had a rope sleeve tied with a thick rope.

Yao Guangqi noticed that in the middle of the four arrow towers was a small basin, or a large pit, and the big pit was surrounded by thick wooden stakes, but the wooden stakes were only more than half a person high, so what could such a short wooden stake do?

What's even more strange is that the four arrow towers are built around the big pit. The cry of "oh oh" came from the pit.

I saw that one of them was pointing to the big pit and shouting loudly, and hundreds of people from the four arrow towers were all around the basin, standing on the periphery of the wooden fence, and some kept waving down with the wooden sticks in their hands, it was obvious that there was something in the basin, and they were trying to jump up.

There must be something in this big pit, and it is a difficult thing to domesticate, so many people need to be tamed with wooden sticks and rope nooses, Yao Guangqi watched patiently, after a while, the things in the big pit gradually quieted down, and the Yi people around also stopped, and with the leader muttering a few words, the Yi people returned to the arrow tower one after another.

Yao Guangqi waited for a while, and saw that no one came out again, so he cautiously came to the edge of the big pit, and looked down along the gap in the wooden fence, the big pit was very deep, and the pit was darker than the outside, and he couldn't see the situation in the pit for a while.

After his eyes gradually adapted to the situation inside, Yao Guangqi found that this was a big pit with a very strange shape, because the bottom of the pit was unusually spacious, in Yao Guangqi's position, only a black piece was seen, and the edge of the bottom of the pit could not be seen at all.

What's even stranger is that there are strange sounds coming from the bottom of the pit, some like the snoring of people while sleeping, there must be something up there, and this snoring sound is made by them. In order to find out the situation, Yao Guangqi decided to take the risk and go down to find out the situation.

Yao Guangqi looked around, and happened to see a broken thick rope on the ground, okay, it's him.

Yao Guangqi tied the rope to the root of the thickest stake, then estimated the length of the rope, separated four stakes, tied the other end of the rope to the fifth stake, and then turned over the stake, his feet fell on the rope, and then the center of gravity sank downward, and his big head was tied down, so that his feet were hung cross-hung on the rope, like a bat, and his head was hanging on the rope.

Only then did he see clearly that his head was still at least three people above the ground, and with a slight lift, his feet were off the rope, and he turned over in the air and fell lightly to the ground.

Yao Guangqi's series of movements were light and agile, and he barely made any sound, but even so, it still alarmed the things below, and a muffled voice hummed, Yao Guangqi held his breath and did not make a sound.

He clearly heard that something was approaching him, that thing was panting heavily, and it seemed to be groping, or accumulating strength, in short, the speed of approaching Yao Guangqi was not fast.

Yao Guangqi slowly took a few steps back, just below the mouth of the pit, here, the moonlight could just shine in, suddenly, the thing swooped towards Yao Guangqi, Yao Guangqi flashed sideways, the monster pounced, and landed two steps behind Yao Guangqi, the moonlight just shone on the body of the thing, and the outline suddenly became clear.

Yao Guangqi's eyes never left the black shadow, he finally saw the true face of the other party, and the things in front of him were exactly the same as the monsters he encountered in the forest.

He instantly understood that this big pit was dedicated to raising this kind of monster, and hundreds of monsters should be raised here.

After the monster pounced in the air, it immediately pounced again, and at the same time, two more monsters appeared on Yao Guangqi's side, and those two monsters were even more ferocious, screaming and rushing up.
