Chapter 207: Five Hundred Scouts

Eight o'clock the next morning. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In a thatched hut under the mountain road around the mountain.

Ye Cheng was anxiously waiting, because the trees outside the thatched hut blocked his view, and he couldn't see the situation down the mountain, so he could only wait for others to report.

Half an hour ago, the 20,000 troops of Xiao Luan and Xiao had already gathered at the foot of the mountain.

Fortunately, the poor people in Hum and Ha counties have already taken refuge in the middle of the mountains in Ha County. Although those wealthy businessmen disagreed, under the coercion of the twin county orders, the rich businessmen had to swallow their anger.

And the twin county orders were forced by the princess to obey their fate.

Now there are no poor people in the thatched huts halfway up the mountainside, and they can be turned into battlefields.

Suddenly, the door of the thatched hut was slammed open.

A bandit hurriedly ran in, and in front of Ye Cheng, he gasped and said, "Eight masters, the enemy is attacking"

Ye Cheng paced back and forth, immediately stopped and asked hurriedly, "How many people are here?" ā€

"It's a small army of five hundred people sent by Xiao Luan," the bandit said.

Bai Yingping on the side thought for a while and said, "That's the reconnaissance force, it seems that the other party doesn't know how many of us there are."

"En" Ye Cheng nodded, and said with keen eyes, "Go and get the first ambush ready, you must capture them all alive, and you must not miss any of them"

"Yes," the bandit quickly exited the thatched hut.

"Then let's prepare, too" Ye Cheng ran to the door, covered his body with thatch, and looked out of the door with a pair of eyes.

Now the mountain road around the mountain is quiet, the snow on the road has been shoveled to both sides, and the loess surface is exposed in the middle of the road. The snow shoveled on both sides was built by everyone to build snowmen, and the snowmen on both sides of the mountain road have been going up along the mountain road around the mountain, densely packed, like a welcome team.

This thatched hut is the first one on the mountain road around the mountain, and the side where Ye Cheng is hiding can just be seen, at the intersection of the mountain road, if there is an enemy army running up, he can know it as soon as possible.

Because they were here to intercept the fleeing enemy troops, they arranged for 10 white-clothed soldiers to go together, and another 20 white-clothed soldiers were in the hut a little above, led by Baifang.

The thatched huts on the mountain road around the mountain were open in order to confuse the enemy into thinking that there was no one in the house.

In order to confuse the enemy from further searching, the things in the thatched hut were messy, and all kinds of bottles and cans were thrown everywhere, just like after fleeing from the desert.

That way, the person hiding in the straw will be safer.

At this time, in Ye Cheng's sight, several soldiers wearing wooden armor had already appeared.

"Here, be careful," Ye Cheng shouted in a low voice.

Those hiding in the straw breathe slowly and remain still. Face the door and be ready to rush out.

Ye Cheng continued to monitor the situation outside.

More and more soldiers in wooden armor walked up the mountain road, and when the soldiers saw the snowmen on both sides of the mountain road, coupled with the quiet and thatched huts around them with open gates, these scout soldiers were too cautious, and began to shrink their heads and walk slowly upward.

The first scout walked over to the thatched hut in Yecheng and waved his hand for the other scouts to continue walking.

The scout turned and walked towards the thatched hut.

Ye Cheng hurriedly and carefully blocked his eyes with straw, in case the other party saw the dark and shiny eyes.

The scout walked outside the door of the thatched hut and looked inside, seeing that it was a mess, only a large amount of straw piled up on the corners of the thatched hut.

The Scout slowly drew his sword from his waist and looked at the straw on either side of the doorway.

Ye Cheng became nervous at this time, trying to tighten his body and not let his body move.

On both sides of the door, he and Bai Yingping hid in the straw, and if they were discovered by the scouts, the other scouts who had not yet completely entered the ambush would find the problem and flee first.

If the enemy knows that there is an ambush on the mountain, the next ambush will be even more difficult to implement. And if the opponent's army presses up, the more than 1,000 of them alone won't last long.

Therefore, it is necessary to let the enemy know that there are a large number of troops and ambushes on the mountain, so that the enemy army does not dare to go up easily.

The Scout dangled his sword in the doorway.

Ye Cheng saw the tip of the sword swaying back and forth through the thin slit of the straw, and his heart became even more anxious.

Suddenly, the Scout stabbed his sword into the straw to the left of the doorway, picked it open, and scattered a patch of straw on the ground.

Ye Cheng suddenly panicked, stared at a pair of eyes, and secretly said in his heart, "What about Bai Yingping?" Wasn't he still there just now? ā€

Just then, the tip of the Scout's sword moved to the right of the doorway.

Ye Cheng looked at the tip of the sword that was getting closer and closer, and behaved even more panicked. If the Scout had stabbed his sword into the straw like he had just done, he would be in danger.

The tip of the sword and the straw were only ten centimeters away, and they were about to be pierced down.

Ye Cheng held his breath nervously, and at the same time worried in his heart, if Bai Yingping and the ten white-clothed soldiers couldn't help it and rushed out to save him, it would be troublesome.

It's still unclear where the five hundred scouts outside have gone? If you alarm them at this time, it will be all in vain.

Ye Cheng can only pin his hopes on them now, hoping that they will hold back. And he himself was prepared for injury.

The tip of the long sword was far away from the straw, and Ye Cheng knew that it was a preparatory action before stabbing, so that he could stab the target with more strength.

The preparation was done, and the long sword stabbed at the straw.

Although Ye Cheng was ready to be injured, he was still very frightened when he saw the long sword stabbing at him. Everything around me seemed to be still, and only the sound of my own breathing and heartbeat could be heard.

"Hey, did you find anything?" Suddenly, a man shouted in a low voice outside.

The sword suddenly stopped on the straw and did not stab it, and then the Scout withdrew his sword and turned around and said, "There is no one in there"

"Then look up," continued the man outside.

The scout leaves the thatched hut.

At this time, Ye Cheng gasped for breath, and his panic gradually eased. Worried about the situation outside, he quickly pulled away some straw and looked out of the door.

Ye Cheng could no longer see a scout standing on the mountain road around the mountain in his sight, and he knew that it was time.

Suddenly, Bai Yingping came to Ye Cheng with 10 white-clothed soldiers, Bai Yingping squatted on the ground, gently pulled away the straw covering Ye Cheng's body, and whispered, "The first ambush can be started"

Ye Cheng exclaimed a little in surprise, stared at Bai Yingping with a pair of eyes and asked, "You?" Didn't you just get in that pile of straw? Why are you okay with a sword stab? ā€

"I was gone before the scout came in, but you didn't pay attention," Bai Yingping said.

At this time, a white-clothed soldier who was lying at the door looking at the mountain road around the mountain said, "The enemy army has entered the snowman ambush circle, how is it?" Do you want to act? ā€

Ye Cheng hurriedly removed the straw on his body, probed out, looked at it, and said softly "action"
