Chapter 205: Ambush
When Hou Qi heard Yang Quan's words, he was not polite, turned to the people behind him and said, "Everyone, take the horses to the mountain col behind, leave a few traces to clean up the traces we left, horse manure and the like must be cleaned up, and the rest of the people, as I ambush on both sides of the mountain, the archers are ready."

Two middle-aged soldiers drove their horses to the back of the mountain not far away, and two or three people threw horse manure and the like on the ground into the grass on the side of the road, carefully removed the footprints on the ground, and the rest hid on the hill by the roadside.
When Yang Quan climbed to the top of the slope, Hou Qizheng commanded a few people to lift a few boulders to the side of the road and supported them with wooden sticks, and the wooden sticks were tied with ropes. At this moment, Yang Quan couldn't help but admire, the ancients were still very smart, this method is not the same thing as when attacking the transport team in later generations, when attacking the transport team?
But soon Yang Quan lost interest, and the people around him also scattered and hid behind the rocks, Hou Qi pulled Yang Quan to hide in the shade on the side, "My lord, you can sleep for a while, these guys are not expected to come out so early, according to He Lao Liu's news, every time the Jin Shang's convoy transports mostly prohibited transactions, there are many people during the day, in order to avoid revealing secrets, it should be more at night." ”
Yang Quan frowned at this time: "He Lao Liu?" Where did you say you got your news? ”
Hou Qi saw Yang Quan's appearance, hesitated for a moment, and still said, "I know that since the lord was assassinated, there are many doubts about the generals in our army, it stands to reason that the humble position as a subordinate, should not say much, but in addition to the subordinates, the humble position is still the old brother who came out with the adult, I still say to the adult, there must be the eyes and ears of the other party in our army, but the adult can't start to have a lot of doubts about the people in our army because of this, although I can see it clearly, but in this army, it can't be said to the adult, One, I'm afraid it will damage the reputation of the adults if I say it, and second, I am afraid that saying it will chill everyone's hearts, and the third one, since the adults have been the president, their subordinates are still as casual as they used to be, and it is easy to make the brothers below lose their respect, so I want to take the opportunity to come out this time and talk to the adults alone,"
Hou Qi's words made Yang Quan's heart warm a lot, you know, Yang Quan is not the kind of person who likes to be superior to others, "lonely", he hopes that he will still be as in the past, many brothers are still joking with him as they used to be, but after the assassination, he began to distance himself from other people, and now listening to Hou Qi's words like an elder brother caring about his younger brother, the ice in Yang Quan's heart began to melt.
"Brother Hou said this, how can I not know, but since that incident, I feel that there are too many cows, ghosts, snakes and gods in our Tuntian Division, and some people's things make me a little chilled, but your words, I keep them in my heart, and I will pay attention to these in the future," Yang Quan nodded and said.
Hou Qi looked at Yang Quan, knowing that what he said was not a lie, this time he breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile, "You can sleep for a while, these guys don't know when they will come, we have been on the road for a long time, and now we are staying up late, when they come at night, we have no strength, don't we have a bag?" ”
Yang Quan leaned on the stone behind him, his eyes narrowed, unconsciously, he fell asleep groggily, he was sleeping soundly, but he was shaken vigorously, Yang Quan opened his eyes, only to see Hou Qi looking at himself excitedly, Yang Quan looked up, the sky had darkened at this time, but at this moment Yang Quan couldn't tell whether it was dusk or early morning, only to see that on the narrow mountain road, there was a jingling bell, but it was dark below, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
Yang Quan turned his head to look at Hou Qi suspiciously, Hou Qi made a shushing gesture at him, signaling Yang Quan to continue to look into the distance, at this time, I saw the mountain pass in the distance, a little light suddenly came out, under the light, a mule and horse carrying heavy goods, slowly walked over.
Then one, two, three...... On the horse of the current team leader, a man with a torch and shouted at the people behind him from time to time, as if he was greeting the people behind, Hou Qi lay beside Yang Quan, and said in a low voice, "Look at the current one, it is the team leader, and he is also a pathfinder, he shouts and cheers, and he is also very knowledgeable, and he is in contact with the people behind him in code, whether there is danger or situation, the mule team in front of him is mostly carrying some worthless things, and the real bulk items are all on the car behind,"
After Hou Qi's words were finished, the sound of the bell became urgent, and sure enough, at the mountain crossing in the distance, carriages came over slowly. The torches on the gang of the carriage were blown by the wind and rattled, and under the flickering light, the carriage was piled up with black goods.
Yang Quan watched the team slowly come to the foot of the mountain, the torch in the leading man's hand could illuminate Yang Quan's cheeks, Yang Quan even had an illusion, as long as the torch was raised a little, it could ignite his hair,
The leader, tightened his horse and stopped in the middle of the road, he looked up and looked around, Yang Quan was nervous, pushed a piece of gravel under the palm of his hand, fluttered, the stone rolled down from the mountain, and fell on the person's side, Hou Qi on the side pressed Yang Quan's body, signaling him not to be excited, and immediately the person looked at Yang Quan's room in confusion, and the sharp gaze made Yang Quan feel that he could pierce his body.
After a while, the place where Yang Quan was, there was still no movement, the man gave up the meaning of searching, and shouted a few times behind him, the convoy moved slowly again, the team of mules and horses, slowly walked over, the carriage in the car in the whip of the charioteer, came over, the torch at the front of the car flickered in the wind, on the other side of the car, pinned a big flag, black letters on a red background, the words of the Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, it was very obvious in this firelight, and after this dart flag, there was a slightly smaller flag, written "Zhengxingde" Three big words.
Because it is uphill, the "pop" driver whips the car, and the body shakes instantly, revealing the long knife hanging on his waist.
The wooden wheels of the carriage turned with difficulty, making a creaking sound, the horse slashed the front hooves hard, and the nasal cavity spewed out a stream of hot air, obviously the things pulled on the cart were not light, the person who drove the carriage, saw that the carriage could not walk, jumped down from the mountain of the carriage, that neat appearance, martial arts must also be extremely superb, he pushed the carriage of the carriage hard, and a person next to him gave a whip on the back of the horse, the horse was in pain, neighed, and pulled up hard, and the carriage finally caught up with the mountain road with difficulty.
