Chapter Seventy-Five: The Raid Battle
When the bandits saw the burning fire, they felt like they saw hope, and their mood was much brighter.
They were eating in their mouths, and they were busy sharpening their blades in preparation for the next day's battle.
Suddenly, there was a scream from the bottom of the mountain, and everyone quickly looked at each other, "Not good, it seems that they are already preparing to raid us." ”
Yang Yu also heard the voice from the bottom of the mountain, and immediately gave an order: "Brothers, listen to the order and retreat in order!" ”
Although these people are bandits, once they hear the order, they will retreat in an orderly manner.
The first and second teams left first, while the third team used the woods to conceal their whereabouts and put the finishing touches on it.
"When you wrap up, pay attention, go in the opposite direction of our advance, and leave some clues to lure them to the bait."
Yang Yu also took great pains to let the officials and soldiers step on the trap, so he went to be the bait himself.
The bandits quickly rushed to the secret passage in the back mountain, and the two burly men forcefully moved the boulder pressed against the entrance.
Yang Yu stood in front of the intersection and shouted loudly: "The first team quickly retreats, and as soon as they get outside, they will set traps around the exit, just simple traps."
After the second team came out, the first team and the second team hurriedly evacuated in the direction of Jinling to join their wounded companions. ”
His voice was very loud, and it sounded very strong and calm at this time, because at such a critical juncture, it was necessary to calm people's hearts.
After Yang Yu explained these things, he walked to the third squad, and the first squad also quickly entered the secret passage and lined up in a long line, and successfully escaped one by one.
Because the secret passage is very narrow, both adults and children can pass through one or two people at a time, provided that both of them are very thin.
So they didn't flee very quickly, although everyone quickened their pace.
Yang Yu once instructed that you can't push, you can't be in a hurry, you must go down the tunnel in an orderly manner, if someone falls, you can't go behind, and it will delay time.
Therefore, the bandits all kept in mind the words of the big boss, and even if there was a conflict between the two, they would settle it after going down the mountain.
At present, the actions of the bandits are going well, and as for the officers and soldiers who are preparing to raid in the dark, they are not so successful.
The current situation is that those officers and soldiers who have caught up with them, and the vanguard members who have taken the lead, have all fallen into big pits.
There were a lot of sharpened branches in the pit, and many officers and soldiers didn't even see the bandits, so they became a hornet's nest.
Fortunately, because of the limited resources, the wooden thorns are not very dense, and some of the people who jumped down were not particularly injured.
Therefore, these traps can only slow down the actions of the officers and soldiers as much as possible, but cannot cause a large number of casualties.
The tiger guards in charge of the rear of the hall began to play the role of a rescue team and pulled all the injured people in the pit up.
At the same time, Xiao Qicai was encouraging everyone to move forward: "Don't be afraid, their tricks have been exhausted, everyone rush forward and kill the bandit with a hundred taels of silver!" ”
Although the soldiers were a little frightened, when they heard that there was a silver bounty, they thought it was a trivial matter.
Thinking about it, the bandits are short of supplies in this environment, and even if the trap is set up well, it will not bring too many casualties to their side.
Thinking of this, the morale of the soldiers, which had been a little low, gradually returned to its original state.
Some of the wounded were left behind, and a large part of the rest continued to move forward, albeit at a much slower pace.
They should try to eliminate all the traps to preserve their own sufficient combat effectiveness.
But even so, the officers and soldiers will occasionally suffer some minor injuries, after all, some inconspicuous small traps cannot be prevented.
However, these small injuries were nothing to these soldiers who had been soldiers for a long time, and they chose to keep moving forward while carefully guarding against those traps.
The group walked a little further, about two miles away, and the little soldier who was exploring the road in front suddenly noticed that there was something on the road.
"Look! The bandits just set up suspense, they seem to think that they can stop us at will by setting a trap, everyone look up, do you see anything? ”
An older soldier next to him looked up from his gaze, and immediately saw Yang Yu and the big fire they had burned earlier.
This slightly older man thought for a while, as if he thought of something: "This group of little bandits raised by bitches is really interesting, huh, with these little traps, do you also want to trap grandpa?"
He probably underestimated our group of soldiers, and I must kill a few more of them when I get there.
I want to prove to them that officers and soldiers are not easy to mess with, and they are also the most difficult people to fool. ”
The little soldier didn't think so, and said to the older soldier at the moment: "Big brother, you better be careful, they still dare to light a bonfire to spend the night there, then they must be prepared, otherwise who dares to be so blatant, I estimate that there will be some difficulties that are difficult to deal with next." ”
The armor soldier agreed, "Indeed, it is not to be taken lightly now, if it were not for your reminder, I would have almost rushed up."
The little soldier leaned closer and said, "This big brother, have you noticed one thing, since we passed the place just now, we have probably walked two miles, right?"
But during this period, there were no traps, and before they were all a few steps, a trap and a trap. ”
The armor soldier smiled disapprehantly: "Hey, they must be running out of resources, so the trap is over here." ”
In fact, this armor soldier is only half right, the bandits are indeed not enough resources, but the distance of these two miles is completely to leave them with a fantasy in their hearts, so that the next attack can shock them and stop them from moving forward.
The little soldier felt that something was wrong, as if to verify the little soldier's inner thoughts, there was also a soldier in front of him, and he suddenly felt that his feet were unstable, and then took a step forward.
At the same time, he felt as if his foot had tripped over something, and in an instant he touched the trap that had been set, and after the fire fold was pulled away, the wind ignited the dead grass.
At first, it burned one point, and in the blink of an eye, it spread out, burning everything around it that could ignite into ashes.
A group of armor soldiers began to panic: "It's a dry day, if there is a little wind in a while, the whole mountain will be on fire, let's evacuate quickly, or try to extinguish the fire quickly!" ”
The soldiers looked at the fire and scrambled to discuss what to do. As a result, before he could say a few words, he heard Xiao Qicai's order, "Everyone listen to the order, bypass the fire and assault!" The Tiger Guards will come to extinguish the fire. ”
This trick is very poisonous, anyway, those tiger guards don't help, just let them be a firefighting team!
