Chapter 18: Before the War (2)

In the dense grass, the scout leader Fang Yu was cat, like a tanuki quickly shuttling through the grass.

Zhang San watched vigilantly at the rapidly approaching figure in the grass, his crossbow was raised, and his goshawk-like sharp eyes showed a deep look of vigilance.

Zhang San is a scout trained by Fang Yu, and he has a strong sixth sense for unknown dangers.

He instinctively sensed that someone was approaching him, but at this time, he couldn't be sure whether the person approaching him was his own man or an enemy.

A few chirping bird calls reached Zhang San's ears, and at this time, Zhang San's nerves, which had been tense, gradually relaxed, but what! The crossbow in his hand has always been flat, and he has no intention of putting it down.

Fang Yu approached Zhang San's position, and until he met Zhang Sansi's eyes, Fang Yu had a very nervous expression.

In his heart, he understands Zhang San too well, and in such a situation, if one of them doesn't pay attention, even he can be killed by Zhang San.

Fang Yu made a gesture of silence, and when he saw Zhang San coming, he got closer to Zhang San's left ear, and whispered in Zhang San's ear: "Zhang San, see the two enemy scouts on the right!" You quietly take the three scouts under your command and try not to alarm them and kill them outright.

I'm going to kill the one on the left, and you see my gesture on the other side as soon as it comes out.

You must be quick to attack, now the cavalry of the adults should set off, and don't let them spread the news. ”

Zhang San looked at Fang Yu, tilted his head heavily, he turned his head, waved his right hand at his colleague, and pointed down.

After the three scouts on Zhang San's side saw Zhang San's gesture, they quietly prostrate on the ground and began to touch the direction of Qiu Liju's Wuhuan scout with Zhang San.

After crawling for a while, Zhang San's gesture changed again, and the four scouts divided into two groups and began to approach in the direction of their respective targets.

Seeing that both people had already entered the range of the ambush, and that the three scouts had already raised their crossbows to aim at the enemy, Zhang San also pulled the hard bow in his hand to the fullest.

Zhang San saw the grass in the direction of Fang Yu on the left shaking violently, his mouth closed, and the three crossbows beside him immediately launched a quick attack on the two enemy horses.

The Wuhuan man opposite Zhang San had just swallowed a mouthful of water, and had just taken a greedy breath of air, when he saw two crossbow arrows appear in front of his eyes, his eyes were round, and he was just about to shout loudly when he saw that the crossbow arrows had penetrated his throat.

The bearded black man opened his eyes angrily, and fell backwards unwillingly.

Zhang San was facing the shorter scout of Zhang Chun's rebellious army, and he didn't know what he wanted to do at this time, and he was jumping off his horse, although Fang Xiu's crossbow arrow beside Zhang San hit the scout, but it was off the point.

Just as the scout waved his arms and wanted to shout loudly, the bowstring of the hard bow in Zhang San's hand sounded, and the next moment, the bow and arrow directly sank into the scout's neck, and the words that came out of the call were forced back into his stomach.

Tiny beads of sweat appeared on Zhang San's head, if it weren't for his last divine replenishment arrow, this plan would probably fall short.

Zhang San calmed his nervousness, made a normal gesture to the back, and then quickly rushed towards the two enemy mounts......

Forty miles east of Shichengzi, Wuhuan Nanlin led a mixed corps of thirty heavy cavalry and infantry in Nanlou to advance in the direction of Shichengzi.

For his elder brother Nanlou's advice, Nanlin remembered very clearly, although Qiu Liju was nothing among the Wuhuan people, but Qiu Liju was a Wuhuan person after all, and he asked their brother for help.

Once the elder brother Nanlou obtains Qiu Liju's refuge, then the strength of his clan will increase significantly, and he can definitely be regarded as a big leader among the Wuhuan.

Nanlin looked at the faltering team, couldn't help frowning, and waved the horsewhip in his hand, shouting loudly to the soldiers who were hurrying in front of him: "Hurry, hurry up, haven't you all eaten enough?" Tell you that if the rescue time is delayed, the king will blame him, and you will not be able to eat and walk around. ”

Nanlin was very dissatisfied with the speed of the troops at this time, he had not received any news from the light cavalry troops so far, and he did not know whether the light cavalry troops sent by the eldest brother had not merged with Qiu Liju, nor did he know what Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun's team was like at this time.

According to Qiu Liju's words, he and Zhang Chun have already fallen into a predicament of exhaustion, not only are they chased by the elite soldiers of the big Han behind them, but the grain and grass have been exhausted.

Nanlin didn't dare to be careless at this time, after all, it was Gongsun Zan who hunted down Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun. Nanlin has dealt with Gongsun Chan a few times, but they all came back, and he is very clear about Gongsun Chan's skills.

He didn't want to miss the best opportunity to rescue Qiu Liju because of a mistake in the march.

The faces of several generals around Nanlin were very ugly, and they were extremely uncomfortable with Nanlin's shouting.

They are the subordinates of Lord Nanlou, not the subordinates of Nanlin, a fool, and they are very unhappy in their hearts when they fight with Nanlin, a often defeated general.

If Nanlin had a strong ability, they wouldn't say anything, but in their eyes, Nanlin was a fool idiot, and when they fought against the Han army recently, they were all defeated, and they almost didn't see Nanlin win.

On this hot day, the sun is hot, even staying under the shade of the trees, it makes people feel that the heat is unbearable, which is such a situation, and they are still in a desperate hurry.

In their hearts, they slandered with hatred and hatred, this idiot, if they really meet the enemy, let alone fight with the enemy, it is a question whether they can stand firm.

What's more, they actually went to save that damn guy in Qiu Liju.

In the eyes of most of Nanlou's subordinates, the one who should become Wuhuan Shan Yu the most should be Lord Nanlou, whether it is in terms of manpower or geographical occupation, Lord Nanlou is far stronger than Qiu Liju.

It was precisely for such a reason that Nanlin's subordinates were very dissatisfied with Nanlin's measures.

However, Nanlin is the commander of this army, and they still have to obey Nanlin's arrangement, as for whether they can save Qiu Liju and Zhang Chun's two guys, everything depends on the will of God......
