Chapter 9: The Last Stand (5)

To the west of the creek, deep in the forest. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Lin Yue and the others were already fully prepared, traps, falling rocks, archers, etc. had been laid out, and the three of them hid on top of a huge pine tree, hidden by the dense branches and leaves.

Everything was calm, and the whole forest was very silent, except for the rustle of the branches and leaves in the breeze.

Lin Yue had injuries on his body, the wounds had been torn when he went up the tree just now, although it was dark night, he could feel that a small amount of blood was flowing out, wetting the clothes on his chest.

The pain intensified, but Lin Yue didn't dare to speak out, he wanted to persevere, and he must not let Zhao Youfu and Liu Shi see the difference, so as not to ruin the plan.

The two of them each sat on a tree branch, less than three feet away from where Lin Yue was.

Zhao Youfu stared into the distance, his two eyes did not blink, very serious, after a long time, he finally withdrew his gaze and said in a low voice: "Brother Lin, what if the officers and soldiers don't come?" ”

Lin Yue: ".... ”

Liu Shi rolled his eyes: "Crow's mouth, the eldest brother will definitely come when he says it, and you will worry about it." ”

"Hey, you kid owe a beating today, dare to chirp with Lao Tzu, believe it or not, I'll kick you down."

"You...!"

"How are you doing?"

.....

Lin Yue shouted in a low voice: "You two shut up for me, this is a war, not a child's play!" ”

"We have to believe Brother Zhang, it's not yet the first shift, what are you anxious about?"

Both closed their mouths at the same time.

Liu Shi snorted coldly and pinned his head to the side, Lin Yue spoke, he couldn't help but give face, but Zhao Youfu relied on his good martial arts, so he often put on music, but he couldn't bear it; He made up his mind that when he had the opportunity, he would definitely repair Zhao Youfu.

"Brother Lin, when the officers and soldiers come, can you let me go first, I promise not to embarrass you."

Zhao Youfu was silent for a while, then suddenly turned his face and smiled, as if he had forgotten what had just happened.

In fact, he is such a person, with a hearty and open-minded personality, but he is just unforgiving, and he never holds grudges when he quarrels with others.

Lin Yue liked this person more, and said with a smile when he heard this: "Yes, but you have to listen to my orders and don't act recklessly." ”

"Got it."

Zhao Youfu smiled.

Liu Shi pursed his lips and cast a contemptuous look at Zhao Youfu.

Next, the three of them didn't say anything, sat on the branch and waited quietly, Zhao Youfu sighed from time to time, very anxious.

Time passed minute by minute, and it was a change in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Yan and his subordinates finally came to the river, ten miles in a row, everyone was tired and out of breath, as soon as Zhang Yan shouted to stop, everyone fell on the ground, panting.

"Big... Big brother, these bunnies... It's enough to run, and he chased us for ten miles, and he almost didn't catch up. ”

"yes... Compare... Faster than a rabbit. ”

......

As soon as they sat down, everyone wiped their cold sweat and began to discuss.

Zhang Yan also gasped heavily, along the way he not only had to run for his life, but also turned around from time to time to face the battle, so that his brothers and the officers and soldiers distanced, ten miles down, he was almost collapsed.

Looking at the people sitting around, Zhang Yan silently counted that there were fifteen people left, which means that the enemy lost thirty-five brothers in the first battle!

Since the establishment of the cottage, this is the biggest loss, they are all brothers for many years, how can he not feel distressed.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he finally completed the task, not only attracting the enemy, but also killing more than 200 enemies, which can be described as a rare big victory.

Zhang Yan calmed down and said: "There is a dense forest behind us, and when we rush in, we will complete the task, and then we will have a good rest." ”

"I don't know if Brother Lin, they've set a trap..."

"It should be arranged, it's almost two shifts."

Zhang Yan said: "When you enter the dense forest, be smart, don't step on the trap." Do you hear that? ”

"I heard..." The crowd replied.

Suddenly, a person sitting next to Zhang Yan shouted: "Big brother, look, the officers and soldiers seem to be catching up again." ”。

Everyone stood up.

Zhang Yan looked up, and there was indeed a fire in the distance, and he lined up to get close to here.

Zhang Yan frowned and said: "The officers and soldiers of Jinyang County are much more elite than those of Linyang and Huaiyang counties, and they can't believe that they are still alive after chasing us for so long." ”

"You all listen to me, when this battle is over, you will give me training to play with my life, whoever is perfunctory like before, Lao Tzu will beat him to death!"

Everyone nodded, with an embarrassed look on their faces, when it came to training, they were no strangers to training, Heiyunzhai had to train every day, but no one had taken it seriously, as soon as the leaders left, they began to gamble and sleep, which was completely perfunctory.

But after tonight's incident, they understood that it is impossible not to train, for example, these ten miles down, the same people, but the officers and soldiers are running faster than them, and the endurance is good, so they can't even escape, how can they do it.

"Alright, let's talk about it in the jungle."

Zhang Yan waved his hand and led everyone towards the dense forest.

As soon as he took two steps out, Zhang Yan stopped, staring at the river in front of him, with an incredible look in his eyes.

I saw that the river in front of me had dried up, which was very different from before, and it was obvious that the upstream must have been blocked by people with sandbags and other objects; Zhang Yan thought about it and instantly understood that this must have been done by Lin Yue.

didn't have time to think about it, Zhang Yan led everyone across the river and came to the other side.

At this time, I saw the grass on the shore swaying slightly, and out of it came a person, dressed in gray and holding a horizontal knife.

The person who came was named Xiao Liuzi, and he was one of Liu Shi's subordinates.

"Big brother..."

"Little Liuzi, why are you here?"

Xiao Liuzi said: "Brother Lin asked me to pick you up, come with me quickly, a trap has been laid in the dense forest, so as not to be injured by mistake." ”

"Brother Lin is really thoughtful."

Zhang Yanxi said: "Then lead the way, the officers and soldiers will chase after you immediately." ”

"Yes."

Explaining the reason, everyone was very fast, and they ran towards the depths of the dense forest after Xiao Liuzi.

Zhu Li arrived with 500 officers and soldiers, and when he saw that Zhang Yan had disappeared again, he was immediately furious: "This dog thief, if I don't catch him, I will not be a man!" ”

"My lord, it seems that there is a dense forest ahead, and I am afraid that there will be fraud."

A centurion reminded.

Zhu Li said angrily: "What are you afraid of, I have five hundred elite soldiers, why are you afraid of Zhang Yan?" ”

"Give me an order, continue to march, and when Zhang Yan is caught, each person will be rewarded with three hundred silver passes, and he will never break his word!"

Three hundred JETC is a huge amount of money for an ordinary soldier.

Hearing this, all the soldiers were overjoyed and shouted: "Okay, capture Zhang Yan alive..." ”

"Capture Zhang Yan alive..."

......

The roar shook the sky and startled a large number of birds and beasts in the dense forest.

Zhu Li snorted coldly, and after giving the order to go down, he took the lead and ran towards the depths of the dense forest.

........

Under the leadership of Xiao Liuzi, Zhang Yan soon came to the location where Lin Yue and the three of them were. Zhang Yan jumped and climbed the big tree.

"Brother Lin, the enemy soldiers have been attracted."

Seeing Zhang Yan, the three of them were happy at the same time, and Lin Yue asked, "How many people are there?" ”

Zhang Yan came to a branch and sat down, and said with a smile: "Big brother, don't worry, all the county soldiers from Jinyang County are here, as long as we win this battle, everything will be fine." ”

Zhao Youfu grinned: "Haha, okay." ”。

"After waiting for most of the night, I finally didn't wait in vain, this time let's see how he dies."

Lin Yue said: "Don't be too early, our troops are limited, we must not fight hard, and we must retreat immediately after the traps we have laid are used up; I have cut off the water from the upper reaches of the creek, and when we are gone, I will release the sluices, and if we can't catch them all, we can temporarily block them and buy us time to retreat. ”

Zhao Youfu rolled his eyes, and said for a long time to summarize it into one sentence, that is, it is not allowed to hand over the troops in a short manner, so what kind of battle is there to fight, waiting for most of the night or waiting in vain, originally thinking that he could show his hands in front of Lin Yue, but now it seems that there is no chance.

"Okay, okay... Alas, it makes me happy in vain. ”

Holding his weapon mace, Zhao Youfu lay on his back on the branch, his face full of disappointment.
