Chapter 788: There is a ravine of the Huainan Army

Huang Sheng raised his arm, and the dozens of dragoon guards who followed him all stopped, their eyes wandering around.

In the pitch darkness, the senses of the eyes are not the most reliable, except for looking around, dozens of dragoon guards also have their ears propped up, quietly listening to the sounds nearby.

There was silence all around, and Huang Sheng and the dozens of dragoons behind him could even hear the breathing of their companions beside him.

Although they didn't hear any unusual noise, everyone was still quietly dormant, not moving half a step forward at all.

After waiting for about a cup of tea, a slight sound reached the ears of Huang Sheng and the others.

When the sound came, Huang Sheng and the others all pressed their hands on the hilt of the sword.

However, there was only one sound in the ears of Huang Sheng and the others, and they waited for the next sound to come, but they didn't hear any more sound.

There was no more sound, and Huang Sheng and the others were also dormant without any movement.

It's not midnight yet, and they still have time to wait.

Compared to rushing forward and falling into the encirclement of the enemy, the wait at this time is definitely worth it.

After waiting for about half a cup of tea, another sound finally reached the ears of Huang Sheng and the others.

It was the sound of someone kicking a stone.

"Be careful!" Just when that sound drifted into the ears of Huang Sheng and the others, a person's voice came over randomly: "The Qin Army's dragoon guards are on it, if they let them hear it, we will all die!" ”

The person who spoke deliberately lowered his voice, but in the silent ravine, what he said was clearly heard by Huang Sheng and the others.

Listening to what the man said, Huang Sheng couldn't help but feel a burst of amusement in his heart.

If he simply heard the sound of someone kicking the stone and there was no sound, it would really not be easy for him and the dragoon guards behind him to find the traces of the Huainan Army lurking in the dark.

The man said something cleverly, but he invisibly pointed out the direction for Huang Sheng and the others to start.

Huang Sheng had already determined the position of the other party, and the dragoon guards behind him were all soldiers who had received special combat training, so they naturally had some experience in listening to voices and distinguishing positions.

He waved his hand at the two dragoons closest to him, and Huang Sheng gestured to them.

The two dragoons nodded, bent their waists, and quietly touched the place where the voice had just come from.

Lying dormant in place, Huang Sheng didn't move, just quietly waited for the two dragoons who quietly touched the place where the voice came.

In just a few moments, Huang Sheng, who was dormant in the dark, heard three crisp sounds of bones being broken.

Although the sound was not loud, it was unusually clear in the empty ravine.

Not long after the three sounds reached the ears, the two dragoons, who were in the dark, turned back.

When he got in front of Huang Sheng, one of the dragoon guards gestured at him, and raised three fingers at the end.

Seeing the gestures of the dragoons, Huang Sheng knew that they had just broken the necks of the three Huainan troops, and they had already found out that the exit of the dark passage was near here.

Nodding, Huang Sheng waved behind him, leading dozens of people to tiptoe towards the direction where the two dragoons had probed the exit.

Getting closer and closer to the exit of the dark passage, Huang Sheng inexplicably felt a strong sense of oppression in his heart.

When she felt the oppression, he waved his hand behind him, stopping the crowd from advancing.

It was dark nearby, and although it was about to advance to the exit of the dark passage, there was still no fire in the sight of Huang Sheng and the others.

The Huainan army was as cautious as them, although the vision was very bad at night, but in order to avoid being discovered by the Qin army, the Huainan army still chose not to light a bonfire.

Originally, there was no problem with their calculations, but the mistake was that it was not another team that came here, but the dragoon guards led by Deng Zhan.

The dragoon guards are like shadows in the dark, let them ride war horses to fight the enemy on the battlefield, their individual combat power is indeed higher than that of the tiger and the feather forest, but in the case of the corps fighting, there is still no special advantage.

What they are good at is to hibernate in the dark, taking advantage of the enemy's inattention, and quietly taking the enemy's life.

did not light a bonfire, in order to make all precautions, but invisibly helped the dragoon guards a lot.

Dormant in the darkness, Huang Sheng quietly experienced the sense of oppression.

The feeling of oppression was close to him, and it was intense.

For a person like Huang Sheng, who has been stained with the blood of countless people since joining the Dragoon Guard, what can give him a sense of oppression will definitely not be a small force.

Licking his lips and looking at the dark in front of him, Huang Sheng even had the urge to order everyone behind him to retreat.

He didn't do that, though, and after taking a deep breath, he beckoned behind him and led dozens of dragoons quietly forward.

The further he went, the stronger the uneasiness in Huang Sheng's heart became.

Finally, the feeling of uneasiness overcame his desire to make meritorious contributions.

He stopped, raised his arm, and stopped the advance of the group behind him.

After waiting quietly for a moment, Huang Sheng waved his hand and quietly withdrew a step.

Seeing him retreat, the dragoon guards who had followed him to the vicinity retreated one after another.

After going down the ravine, except for the two dragoon guards who killed people, no one else saw the Huainan army.

If it was an ordinary team and withdrew without seeing the enemy, it would definitely not be reconciled.

But the Dragoons are not an ordinary team after all, for them, it is important to complete the mission, but it is even more important to live.

Slowly retreating backwards, it took almost a cup of tea for Huang Sheng and the others to retreat to the place where they had dropped the rope.

Looking up at the rope hanging on the ditch wall, Huang Sheng twitched the corners of his mouth, and instead of leading everyone to climb the rope, he beckoned his hand and walked straight to the gentle slope suitable for the army to climb to the top of the ditch.

When they reached the edge of the gentle slope, Huang Sheng and the others no longer hid their traces, stood up straight one by one, ran up the gentle slope quickly, and ran towards the top of the ditch.

did not hide their whereabouts anymore, and the movements of Huang Sheng and the others were soon discovered by the Huainan army lurking in the ravine.

Seeing them running up the gentle slope, the dark sentinels of the Huainan Army all stared at each other, and their faces were full of disbelief.

Before Huang Sheng and the others took the initiative to appear, the Huainan Army sentry who was ambushed in the ditch did not find them anywhere.

Huang Sheng and the others ran up the gentle slope, and in a dark passage at the bottom of the deep ditch, a Huainan soldier ran into the dark passage, hugged his fists and said to the black and swarthy piece in front of him: "General Qiyu, the Qin army dragoon guard went down the ditch, and before they left, our army sentry did not find anything!" ”

In the dark and dark place, there was a general of the Huainan Army.

After listening to the soldier's report, the general tightly frowned and did not speak.

maintained a posture of clenching his fists and bowing, without the approval of the generals, and the soldiers who reported the news did not dare to leave.

After being silent for a long time, the general of the Huainan Army made a gesture to the soldiers behind him.

Although it was in the dark, the soldier could still vaguely see the general moving his arm.

After the general of the Huainan Army made a gesture, the soldiers said to the soldiers who reported the news: "Hurry up your precautions, and wait until dawn to see if there are any casualties!" ”

"No!" After listening to the words conveyed by the soldiers, the soldiers who reported the news bowed down with their fists and turned to leave.

When the messenger left, the general of the Huainan Army in the dark stood up, walked slowly to the entrance of the cave, and looked up at the top of the ravine.

Although the ravine is also dark, it is much better than in the dark passage.

The light, almost negligible to the point of being gilded on his face, reflected only a hazy outline.

The outline seemed familiar, but it was too dim to make out who he was.

Huang Sheng and the others left the ravine and galloped all the way, running up the hillside where Deng Zhan led many dragoon guards to camp.

Seeing them go up the hill, Deng Zhan, who had been waiting, hurriedly stood up and trotted over to Huang Sheng, three or five steps away from Huang Sheng, Deng Zhan couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?" ”

"There really is a Huainan army!" In front of Deng Zhan, Huang Sheng arched at Deng Zhan with his fists, and whispered: "When I waited below to kill the three Huainan troops and led the soldiers to advance towards the exit of the dark passage, my subordinates felt very uneasy in their hearts, so they led everyone to turn back first!" ”

Hearing that there was really a Huainan army in the ravine, Deng Zhan was stunned for a moment, and before he could ask how many Huainan troops there were, he suddenly heard that Huang Sheng also felt uneasy in his heart below, and his heart suddenly tightened.

I still know Huang Sheng very well, since Huang Sheng joined the Dragoon Guard, he has never flinched in battle, which can make such a warrior feel uneasy in his heart, and there must be an extremely powerful force lurking in the ravine.

The soldiers of the other formations of the Qin army may have believed more in what they saw.

But the dragoon guards are different from other soldiers, and even Yulin and Huben, who are also the three guards, are very different from the dragoon guards.

The dragoon guards who have been deliberately cultivated by Liu Wei sometimes have intuition that is more effective than their eyes.

Only more than 500 dragoon guards dared to enter Xuzhou, and Deng Zhan even dared to break into the 100,000 Huainan army with only 12 people, which is also inseparable from this characteristic of the dragoon guards.

"Maybe the Huainan Army is brewing its next attack!" Frowning slightly, Deng Zhan whispered to Huang Sheng: "Send someone immediately to ask Mr. Chen how to deal with it!" ”

After receiving Deng Zhan's orders, Huang Sheng nodded and said to a dragoon guard behind him: "You immediately go to the main formation, report this matter to His Highness, and ask Mr. Chen what to do!" ”

"No!" Following Huang Shengcai to come up from the ravine, the dragoon guard who got the order did not shirk, hugged his fists in response, and quickly ran towards a group of war horses not far away.

Turning over one of the horses, the dragoon guard clamped his legs the horse's belly, shook off the reins, and rode his horse in the direction of Shouchun City.
