Chapter 82: Victory I

Chen Sheng does not fight unprepared wars. The Qin people were strict in governing the army, and wherever they went, they would carefully draw the terrain around the garrison and make a map to facilitate the patrols of the guards. Although the time was in a hurry, before setting off, Chen Sheng had already studied this map and kept the general terrain firmly in mind.

Chen Sheng clearly remembers that in the northeast, a tributary with residual water flows around the foothills. This was a very inconspicuous piece of content in the map, but it was deeply retained in Chen Sheng's mind.

Being able to use the terrain to create the most favorable combat conditions is one of the compulsory courses for every special soldier. Although Chen Sheng is not a special soldier, he has also audited a few classes.

……

Seeing that the sky had gradually changed, Han Dali was also a little anxious. Now of the fifty Praetorian Guards, including him, eight have been lost, including a 10,000-strong commander Hu Bugui. If Chen Sheng could not be captured within the specified time, then the face of the Praetorian Guards would inevitably be disgraced today.

What made Han Dali feel that the future was relatively optimistic was that Chen Sheng's traces had been closely watched by them, and Chen Sheng's several attacks had no results, but the exposed whereabouts gave them traces to follow. Several sneak attacks failed, and Chen Sheng's disguise was also known to the Praetorian Guards, so his body was covered with moss and sludge cloak, which was now the focus of attention of all the Praetorian Guards, and had long lost the role of concealment.

Han Dali was nervous, but also a little excited in his heart, not far in front of him was the river, and the other side of the river was the specified boundary place, it was impossible for Chen Sheng to escape there, that is to say, the Praetorian Guards were now gradually forcing Chen Sheng into a corner.

In order to drive Chen Sheng to the dead corner on a larger scale, Han Dali did not hesitate to risk letting the team disperse somewhat. Although there are some adventures, Han Dali is a cautious person, and he is cautious all the way, step by step. When suspicious bushes and grass are found, they all send a feather arrow first, and then people approach. Even if Chen Sheng wanted to stealthily attack, it was very difficult.

Near the water source, the trees are more luxuriant. Now that the snow and ice have melted, it is the time for the trees to sprout and grow, and the mountains and forests are full of life, and even the shrubs and grasses under the trees, which rarely see the sun, have sprouted new shoots and are lush.

Approaching this kind of place, Han Dali has a headache. It's too simple to hide a person in such a place.

"General, there's a discovery!" One of the Praetorian guards suddenly shouted on the left flank. Han Dali's heart was overjoyed, and then he heard the "whoosh" sound of the guards pulling the strings and shooting arrows.

"Shot!" The janissaries on the left let out a cheer. Several guards ran over, and dozens of people were led by Chen Sheng for a day along the way, and they had already held back the fire in their stomachs, how could they be unhappy to see Chen Sheng being shot by them? Han Dali was even more pleasantly surprised in his heart, looking to the left, in a place about twenty zhang away in the distance, a dirty cloak was lying in a bush, if it weren't for the guards who knew that Chen Sheng had such a cloak on his body, such a distance, it was really not easy to notice that the cloak that was similar to moss.

But seeing that cloak was motionless, Han Dali immediately secretly said in his heart: "It's a trap, don't get close!" But by the time he said that, it was too late.

Chen Sheng, who was hiding in the shadows, saw a few fools with ecstatic looks, and smiled in his heart, and the bow and crossbow that had been prepared were immediately pulled, and the short arrow hit a guard. When Chen Sheng was about to launch the second arrow, Han Dali had already given a warning, and the guards hurriedly rushed to the ground, and Chen Sheng lost the target of shooting. "The ninth!" Chen Sheng grinned again. Although he was not able to complete the goal of "hunting" the other party's ten people in one fell swoop, Chen Sheng was not discouraged, until now, he had not really used the big killing plan!

"The enemy is on the left, twenty feet away!" Han Dali accurately judged Chen Sheng's position from the short arrow shot by Chen Sheng, and immediately said sharply: "The bow and arrow are suppressed, surrounded and closed, don't let him escape!" "Han Dali deserves to be a very good commander, and he immediately made a layout.

Chen Sheng smiled indifferently, took out the smoke bomb bamboo tube in his hand, quickly pulled it away, and took advantage of the smoke to slip towards the established target.

Han Dali looked stunned. It's good, why is there a lot of smoke coming out of Chen Sheng's location? There is no wind in the mountains and forests, and the smoke dissipates very slowly, and there is a very strong pungent smell in the smoke, which makes people cry. The guards had never seen such a vicious weapon, and they all panicked for a while. Han Dali was even more frightened, if Chen Sheng took advantage of this burst of smoke to obscure his vision and cover up, I am afraid he would have to lose a lot of guards.

Chen Sheng wanted to do the same.

But the tools around him have been used, and this smoke is not only lethal to the guards, but also to him. If there had been a gas mask on his face, he would have turned the guards on their backs by this time. But the conditions were rudimentary, so he could only cover his face with a damp cloth and escape with bated breath. There were plenty of opportunities for hunting, and he didn't have to take the risk.

Finally broke through the smoke blockade area, Han Dali's eyes were slightly red, and the guards were also teary-eyed. Fortunately, Chen Sheng did not take advantage of the danger of others to be ruthless. The guards were manipulated by Chen Sheng, and everyone was extremely angry, and some people had already opened their mouths to greet Chen Sheng's direct elder female relatives.

Han Dali didn't have this scolding mind, he had lost his temper by Chen Sheng. "Let's go!" Han vigorously waved his hand and continued to advance forward.

Further on, there is a river on the edge of the mountain forest. Han Dali knew that Chen Sheng's little ghost was difficult, and after estimating the time, he knew that he had no hope of winning, and the remaining time was only two quarters of an hour at most, so it was not easy to catch Chen Sheng. Han Dali also had an eye in his heart, in these two quarters of an hour, as long as he strictly guarded and did not lose any more soldiers, then the guards could be regarded as victorious. Chen Sheng is one person away from "hunting" ten guards.

Thinking of this, Han Dali's heart felt sour. When did the elite iron cavalry of the empire not be extremely brave and brave against the enemy, how could they be like now, timid, and huddled up? Han Dali let out a long sigh, Chen Sheng's guy was really cunning, making him feel like a tiger biting a hedgehog and having no way to put his mouth down, and he had to stab him coldly.

In front of me is the river bay, the river is very quiet, and a few bushes of reeds grow by the river, and the reeds have just pulled out new branches, and they look very fresh. Han Dali didn't notice that in the reeds, on a freshly broken reed stalk, pale green juice was slowly secreting out.
