Chapter 112: Breaking into the Village

However, it was said that Li Rong went around Zhangchai Village, followed the official road, explored the surrounding terrain along the road, and spent nearly a day turning around the radius of ten miles.

Approaching dusk, Li Rong returned to Huailin and waited for night to fall before making plans.

Dozens of mule-drawn carts on the official road creaked and walked slowly forward, and the carts were piled with hay, rice, and other materials, so tired that the mules and horses were snorting and panting, and pulling with all their might, and the people who drove the carts sometimes waved their whips impatiently and whipped from time to time.

Uncle Shen was busy transferring these grains and grass to Zhangchai Village, not far from Tianzhong Mountain, last night, and because he didn't want people to find out, the convoy chose to set off in the afternoon. Of course, the grain and grass were also stored in the manor outside the city in advance, so as not to be noticed by anyone who cares.

Li Rong noticed the arrival of the grain transportation team, and he was overjoyed, and he had a lot of confidence in entering Zhangchai Village under the cover of this grain transportation team.

The servants who were responsible for transporting the grain and grass were not ordinary people requisitioned by the government, but the soldiers took turns transporting the grain and grass, which was also to prevent leakage of information.

Now it has just passed the hot summer, the weather is still very hot, and the soldiers are wearing green cloth jackets, without leather armor, they have been busy for a long time, and their bodies are also sweating profusely. The official road here is just a dirt road for the people, not a post road built by the imperial court, and the road is not easy to walk, and sometimes the soldiers come down and push the mule cart forward.

"The body is strong, and the morale is not high," Li Rong stared at the soldiers escorting the grain and grass through the leaves, and assessed in his heart, "After basic training, there are some elite soldiers, it seems that Li Zhen still has a set." ”

Ordinary people cannot go to the battlefield without training, they do not know how to fight, they do not know how to queue, and in the eyes of those who know the art of war, they are just a plate of loose sand. This team has gotten rid of the undisciplined and casual appearance of ordinary people, and faintly formed a team of three or five, with the appearance of some elite soldiers.

"Yang Er, what's the name of the ghost, it's us back, can't you see so many cars?" The leader of the grain transport team said dissatisfiedly.

Standing in front of the grain truck was a sentry on duty, wanting to check the paperwork of the grain transport team.

"Ling Teamzheng, you also know that this is required above, and I will also act according to the rules, go over!" Yang Er leaned in with a smile and said, "Actually, the brothers can't wait, have you brought some wine, these days are about to fade out of the bird." ”

"As you said, there is wine according to the regulations, but this time the prince slaughtered a few cows with grace, and I will leave you a few catties when I go back." Team Ling laughed.

The convoy carrying grain lined up in the shape of a long snake, across the middle of the official road.

"Brother, I'm going down to pee!" A soldier in the middle carriage said.

"Erniu has a lot of urine on you, go and come back quickly." The soldier next to him said.

Erniu cursed in a low voice, got out of the carriage, and quickly penetrated into the depths of the Huai Forest.

"I'm afraid we'll run so far!" The sergeant in the carriage said.

"Bang" Li Rong appeared next to Er Niu like a ghost, and slapped Er Niu's forehead with a palm.

Erniu felt that a black shadow flashed in front of him, and a sound of wind hit his forehead, and then he fainted.

"Okay, no, the convoy is moving." The sergeant in the carriage shouted.

There was silence in the woods, and there was not a single echo.

"Erniu can't have encountered a ghost, right?" The soldier said, "Shall we go and have a look?" ”

"The front team is urging, Erniu may be defecating, leave him alone, he will go back by himself in a while." Another soldier said.

At this time, Li Rong had already put on Erniu's clothes, dressed up as a grain transport soldier, and was about to take the opportunity to blend into the grain transport team and enter Zhangchai Village.

"Then you can't leave Erniu alone, you don't know the rules of the village, we will all be punished," said the soldier.

There was no way, and the two soldiers came out and went into the forest to look for Erniu.

Li Rong took a few steps out from the other direction of the Huailin and went around to the back of the grain transport team.

The grain convoy began to set off and turned into the path leading to Zhangchai Village.

This path is usually covered with dead wood and grass, and there are sentinels on duty, so it is difficult for pedestrians to find it. Only when a large group of men and horses comes, the soldiers on duty will move out of the way for people and horses to pass.

"Erniu," the two soldiers walked in the gloomy forest, shouting the names of the lost soldiers with a slight tremble, and walked all the way to the depths of the Huai Forest.

After all the grain trucks entered the road, Li Rong chased after them from behind.

"Dude, how did you fall behind?" The sergeant in a carriage that was dragged behind saw Li Rong coming over and asked.

"I just arrived in the forest and found that the grain team had been mobilized," Li Rong said in a local accent like Runan.

All masters above the sixth rank can freely control their body shape, muscles and bones, and it is not difficult to change their accent.

The soldier didn't ask any more questions, and let Li Rong walk forward.

Li Rong's footsteps kept walking along the convoy, and he walked to the middle of the team after a dozen breaths, and the soldiers along the way thought it was his own person when they saw it, and they were all busy going back to the village to rest, and no one stepped forward to stop and inquire.

"What's your name, that guy?" Team Ling was just returning from the front when he saw Li Rong shouting. The soldier in front of him was wearing the clothes of an ordinary soldier, but his temperament was completely different from that of ordinary people, and the key was that he was wearing a pair of jet-black leather boots on his feet. Team Ling knew that these boots were unusual, they were the black leather ** boots often worn by those dignitaries, and an ordinary soldier couldn't afford to buy them, nor could they afford to wear them, and they hadn't even heard of them.

Feeling Ling Teamzheng's gaze sweeping over his boots, Li Rong knew that his identity had been exposed. He stripped Er Niu of his shirt and put it on his body, but he didn't change the boots he usually wore.

Li Rong smiled slightly, without words, on tiptoe, he appeared in front of Team Ling's eyes in an instant, and slapped it with a palm, and the palm wind forced Team Ling's eyes to not open.

Team Ling was barely blocking his chest with his arm, but the opponent's speed was too fast, beyond his imagination, and he slapped his palm on his arm and pressed it to his chest. The difference between the two is too great.

Li Rong knocked Ling Team Zheng into the air with one palm, fortunately Li Rong didn't want to kill, but he used less than thirty percent of his strength to slap it away with skill, otherwise one palm could break Ling Team Zheng's heart.

"The thief is hateful, he dares to kill Team Zheng, go up and take him down," the surrounding soldiers were stunned, and they all drew their horizontal knives and prepared to besiege Li Rong.

Li Rong jumped onto the cart, kicked the two soldiers on the cart under the cart one by one, and then slapped the pack horse's butt with his scabbard, and a stream of true qi penetrated into the horse's body, causing the pack horse to neigh, gallop away, and hit the vehicle in front of him staggering.

At the same time, Li Rong took out the flint, lit the hay on the cart, and with a palm of his hand, the hay with fire fluttered in the wind and accurately fell on the carts along the road, and for a while, the carts caught fire.

The soldiers who surrounded them brandished their swords and tried to kill them.

Li Rong tapped his right hand, and several finger winds pointed at everyone's horizontal knives, striking the blade out of the way, making everyone like a lightning strike, and couldn't help but get out of the way.

The hay and grain on the cart were all flammable, not to mention that the weather was dry at this time, and all the fires broke out in a few breaths, so that the mules and horses pulling the cart were furious, neighing and running, and the situation became more and more chaotic under the collision with each other.

Wherever Li Rong passed, he drew his knife out of its sheath, and the knife qi swept over the reins on the mules and horses, causing the mules and horses to lose control and run faster towards the front.

The soldiers on duty on the watchtower in the village noticed that something was wrong, and hurriedly blew the gong to warn, alarming Li Gui, Pei Shoude and others who were preparing to eat.

"What's the panic, what's going on?" Seeing the soldier who hurriedly ran over to report the news, Li Gui asked.

"The grain transport team outside the village is somehow chaotic, probably under attack by thieves." The messenger said.

"Maybe Li Rong is making trouble." Wang Kun stood up and said.

Li Gui and Pei Shoude hurriedly got up and left the hall, and sent Ande to inform Xuanyiwei to prepare to leave the village.

said that it was too late, it only took a dozen breaths of effort from Li Rong's attack on the Feiling team to the ignition of the cart, and by the time Li Gui ran to the scene with a large group of people, Li Rong had already disappeared without a trace.

The grain on the cart was still burning, and the cart was about to turn to ashes, the mules and horses fled in all directions, running around in the open field, and the soldiers of the grain transport team were all scattered like thunderbolt-struck beasts, thinking that a large number of men and horses were coming.

Li Guitie looked at the wolf-like grain transportation team with a blue face, and he couldn't wait to kill all these soldiers to show the depression in his heart.

"What the hell is going on, who attacked you and started the fire?" Li Gui asked, holding a soldier.

"A famous soldier came over and suddenly knocked Ling Teamzheng unconscious, and then took the cart, knocked us all to the ground, and set fire to the grain and grass on the cart." The soldier said in horror.

"Li Rong must have done it," Mr. Wang said.

A master like Li Rong could easily crush a team of hundreds of ordinary soldiers.

At this time, Li Rong had already taken the opportunity to hide under the belly of a pack horse, ripped off the green clothes on his body, and took the opportunity to approach the village, and when he was twenty or thirty meters away from the village, his body rolled and fell to the ground, like a civet cat, on all fours, and he ran under the earthen wall in two strides, turned over and jumped over the earthen wall.

The eyes of the soldiers on the watchtower were attracted by the fire on the side of the grain convoy, and there were more than a dozen mules and horses rushing towards the village, and it was obvious that there were people hiding under the horses.
