Chapter 14: Falling Eagle Slope

【duang~duang~duang…… Look here, look here, there is money to hold a money field, there is no money to hold a personal field, collect tickets......]

The next day, at dawn, the sky was just slightly bright, and the earth was still shrouded in a gray morning mist.

Ding Zhaohui led the team members to follow behind Lao Qi, and quietly lurked on the slope opposite Eagle Mountain.

Through the faint light, Ding Zhaohui held her clairvoyance to carefully observe the Eagle Mountain's every move. The horse thieves are still in their sleep, and unless a "business" comes to the door, they will never get out of bed until they reach three poles in the morning. This time is undoubtedly the time when people are most sleepy, and the only few sentries on the cottage are also dozing off with knives and guns.

Ding Zhaohui was not in a hurry to take action, in his opinion, he might be able to win a lot now, but it was difficult to do all the work, this was not the result he wanted, the first time he led the team to carry out the task alone, he had to do it beautifully.

He observed for a while, and recorded in detail every grass and tree on Eagle Mountain, and was about to retreat, but he did not expect that the opposite mountain began to be noisy. He suppressed his emotions and continued to let everyone stay hidden, and he also observed again, it turned out that the horse thief on the opposite side got up early this day, and was sharpening his knife Huo Huo seemed to be going to do a big job.

Ding Zhaohui handed the clairvoyance to the seventh man next to him, and the seventh took it and looked at Eagle Mountain, only to see him frown slightly: "Did these horse thieves take the wrong medicine today, what does it mean to make such a big move early in the morning?" Is it ......?"

Ding Zhaohui and Lao Qi looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of worry in each other's eyes, but Ding Zhaohui was quickly relieved: "It shouldn't be the attention of our fleet, this fleet is estimated to have sailed through the Mamengshan Gorge, and besides, these horse thieves can't do anything with our boats, let's observe one or two more for the time being." ”

Lao Qi nodded silently, and then stared at the other party's every move.

After a short time, the gate of the two canyons of Eagle Mountain was finally slowly opened, and a group of horse thieves rode out of it and scattered in all directions, the number of horse thieves per share was not fixed, more than twenty or thirty people, less than ten people.

Although Ding Zhaohui had never been a bandit, no matter how he looked at these people in front of him, he looked at Lao Qi suspiciously, and Lao Qi also shook his head at him slightly, not knowing why.

"You, you, you and you, each take a few people, follow them to see what they are doing, and then go back to the cave to gather after figuring it out. Don't act rashly, lest you startle the snake! Ding Zhaohui pointed to several squad leaders and ordered.

"Yes"

After several squad leaders left with their own people, Ding Zhaohui also took the rest of the people to hang behind one of the horse thieves and slowly followed.

Although the horse thieves were all riding horses, they walked leisurely, and Ding Zhaohui and his team members were all born in martial arts, so it was not difficult for them to keep up with the speed of horse thieves.

Suddenly, there was a small commotion in the group of horse thieves in front of Ding Zhaohui and them, and one horse thief broke away from the group and walked into the bushes next to him, and the other horse thieves did not wait for him, and left first with a scolding.

Seeing this, Ding Zhaohui's heart was overjoyed, and she gestured a few times to the two team members around her, and the two team members nodded understandingly and got up to leave.

After a while, the two team members who had left before came to Ding Zhaohui with a horse thief with stinky socks on his mouth, who was the horse thief who had left the team.

Ding Zhaohui glanced at the distance from the horse thief team, and after making sure that he would not disturb them, he ripped off the sock from the horse thief's mouth. As expected, as soon as the horse thief could speak, he chirped a lot of Liao dialect, Ding Zhaohui couldn't understand it, so he had to ask Lao Qi for help.

Lao Qi's Liao language is obviously over the fourth or sixth level, at least he really listens to the other party's scolding language. He was not polite, he came up and gave the horse thief a good meal to clean up, until the other party wanted to die, and then began to formally interrogate people, which shows that these years of underground work have made his heart a lot evil.

"Captain Ding, this guy has been recruited, the situation he said is basically consistent with the previous investigation, this time it was their boss who asked them to collect the remnants of the surrounding bandits, and he didn't know the specific situation!" Zero Zero Seven wiped the blood off his hands on the horse thief before he said to Ding Zhaohui.

"Send him to Western Elysium!" Ding Zhaohui gestured to his subordinates.

They buried the head of the lone thief and continued to follow the thief's army.

As the sun was about to fall, the gang of horse thieves finally stopped in what looked like a cottage.

"Boss, Ma Si hasn't caught up yet?"

"Lazy cow lazy and urine, this thing is not like this, take care of him first. Let's go up and call the door directly, if they know each other, let them follow us to eat and drink spicy food, otherwise we will destroy them! The leader of the group waved his hand without annoyance.

There are more than a dozen surviving bandits in this small cottage who are renovating their shacks, and when they saw the black-hearted eagle's men coming to take them in, they all wisely chose to obey, anyway, their boss has been killed by the army, and it doesn't matter if there is a new old man now. I heard that the black-hearted eagle was not damaged in this encirclement and suppression, and it must be the largest family within a hundred miles from now on, and it must be much stronger to follow him than now. There are a lot of small cottages with this idea, of course, there are some more tough, and they are all turned into fertilizer in the end, and in general, the black-hearted eagle's co-optation plan is quite successful by this time.

If it weren't for Ding Zhaohui and their timely arrival, the strength of the black-hearted eagle would have skyrocketed, but there was no such thing in this world.

It was dark, and the special operators also returned to the cave where they were temporarily stationed.

Ding Zhaohui looked at the information sent by the squads, which was basically the same as what he had seen, and they all mentioned a detail, the cottages that were incorporated everywhere were basically intact, and he also participated in the national anti-bandit operation.

"Who is this guy in charge of suppressing bandits in Liaoguo? Is his brain full of? Ding Zhaohui couldn't help but scold.

Lao Qi: "What's wrong?" ”

"Lao Qi, come and see, how can they suppress bandits like this, almost all the cottages have not been destroyed, do they still plan to continue to raise bandits to play? Or is it deliberately left to someone else's black-hearted eagle to co-opt? Ding Zhaohui was extremely worried about the IQ of the Liao generals.

The speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Lao Qi heard him say this, and suddenly an inspiration flashed in his mind, and he slapped his thigh with excitement: "His grandmother is a bear!" I said that I always felt that something was wrong, but I always couldn't remember it, and I suddenly figured out one thing when you reminded me! ”

"What's the matter?"

"That's it! It's all speculation right now, but I think it's very likely! Didn't Captain Ding just ask, who is responsible for suppressing the bandits! According to our information, this crackdown on bandits was fought for by Yelu Chongyuan, the second prince of Liao, saying that he wanted to follow our dynasty and pacify the bandits across the country for his father. In the end, his father felt that it was not cost-effective to spend too much, so he only asked him to exterminate the bandits in Ma Mengshan, which was regarded as an explanation for my Song Dynasty.

It is said that the second prince of Liao also arrested a lot of people in the end, and showed off in front of his father, and these people did not know where to go in the end. When I first arrived here, I found that the cottages here were not as dilapidated as I imagined, not only the black-hearted eagles had moved ahead of time, but even the camps had been well preserved. I thought that the second prince wanted to play the trick of raising bandits and self-respect, but now it seems that it is far more than that! Maybe we should let these people live, maybe it will be more beneficial to my Great Song in the future! ”

"That's not going to work! We were ordered to eradicate their armor and leave nothing behind. Ding Zhaohui shook it like a rattle.

Zero Zero7 thought that this was just his own speculation, and it was not good to insist on it anymore, and besides, how could he disobey the emperor's order.

Since he decided to take them under the knife, Zero Zero Seven was not ambiguous, and helped Ding Zhaohui formulate an action strategy together before falling asleep satisfied.

On the third day of entering Ma Mengshan, Ding Zhaohui and his team launched a guerrilla war based on the intelligence of the previous day, concentrating superior forces to carry out various defeats on the horse thieves.

The black-hearted eagles sent out to co-opt the bandits, regardless of success or failure, happily walked home, the number of successful teams increased greatly, and the losing teams had nothing to lose, and by the way, they also eliminated dissidents.

The most of these teams is only a hundred, and the few are still the original dozen people, in their opinion, their cottage has swept away this land within a radius of 100 miles, and now it is very safe to walk on their own territory. Therefore, they were all careless, and only cared about telling their own meat jokes to amuse, but they did not know that not far in front of them, fifty-four pairs of eyes were staring at them.

Ding Zhaohui and his team members were ambushed on both sides of the road, looking down condescendingly at the group of lambs sent to the door, and when the other party entered a distance of two hundred meters, everyone quietly pulled out the ruler and put their respective targets in the crossbow arrows.

Although they used the most exquisite divine arm crossbow of the Song Dynasty, and shot more than 300 meters at the farthest, the distance that could accurately snipe was much shorter, even if an elite archer like the special combat team could maintain half the hit rate at 200 meters, it would be very good, but 100 meters through Yang was a piece of cake for them.

Gradually, the horse thief got closer, slowly approaching from two hundred meters to one hundred meters, and it was at this time that Ding Zhaohui briefly ordered: "Shoot!" ”

The dense rain of arrows roared towards the target with the sound of breaking through the air, perhaps the first-class martial arts masters could dodge this deadly attack with full attention, obviously these horse thieves were just rough men who could play some three-legged cat kung fu at the moment. They didn't even have time to scream before they were dragged off their horses by the powerful force of the crossbow arrows, and the survivors were overwhelmed by the sudden blow, and a second rain of arrows awaited them. If you can survive like this, it can only show that your luck is indeed against the sky, but no matter how good your luck is, it will end here, don't forget that the special combat team members are martial arts masters......

In this way, the teams sent out by the black-hearted eagles fell on the way home one after another, and never got up again, and the only team that went back was because of the wrong direction, and Ding Zhaohui and they didn't have time to rush over.

The black-hearted eagle stayed on the top of the peak in the middle of the eagle mountain, looking in the direction of the team's departure, since he sent the team to collect other bandits, he always had a breath of panic in his heart, as if something bad was about to happen. This feeling was not new to him, and he had escaped many dangers by relying on this kind of direct escape. But this time he was very confused, and carefully thought about his bold expansion plan, so he did not hesitate to say that his master came forward to cooperate, seeing that everything was going well, he was just short of this last trick, but this feeling appeared again, which made him very crazy.

He thought that this time it was because he paid too much attention to it that he would suffer from gains and losses, but he didn't expect that this feeling would be even stronger the next day, and he seemed to be out of breath. He stood on the top of the mountain and waited left and right, and waited until the flowers were gone, only to see a team of more than a dozen people swaying back. He couldn't wait to rush to the gate, he didn't even care about his identity, he wanted to hear the word "smooth" with his own ears.

The team did tell the Blackheart Eagles that it was going well, and although they didn't bring back manpower, they also turned those guys who didn't know the times into fertilizer.

Seeing that the smallest group of people had successfully completed the task, the black-hearted eagle thought that the other horses must be having fun and were reluctant to come back for a while, so he would send someone to urge him tomorrow.

It was getting dark, and the black-hearted eagle had just put his heart and liver back in place, when a sharp arrow pierced the night sky and nailed it to the gate of his cottage.

"Boss, there's a strip of cloth from outside!" A small minion respectfully handed over the strip of cloth that had been taken from the arrow on the door.

The black-hearted eagle took the strip of cloth and looked at it, and there were a few bright red characters on it: "If you want the lives of your minions, go to the east of the mountain immediately." ”

The black-hearted eagle took the strip of cloth to his nose and sniffed it, and a strong smell of blood hit him head-on, this kind of naked provocation deeply stimulated his self-esteem, but he did not lose his mind because of it. For the sake of safety, he gathered the rest of his subordinates and accompanied him down the mountain to find out, and the only dozen or so horsemen also became the existence of scouts, scattered around in case of accidents.

Under the guard of three hundred people, the black-hearted eagle successfully reached the target location - a small dirt slope. There were several corpses scattered on the dirt slope, and a wooden sign was stuck alone in the crowd.

"Boss, these are all small leaders sent out on the ground, all of them were killed by arrows, and there is also a sign on this piece that reads 'Luoying Slope'!" A guy who looks like a confidant took the initiative to carry a torch to get first-hand information for his boss.
