Chapter 59: Ambush Qingzhu Valley (Third Watch)

Ye Zheng and Niu Sanyan led thirty brothers from Niujia Village, carrying boxes of mines, and went down to Fengming Ridge in a mighty way, preparing to go to Qingzhu Valley to bury mines.

Qingzhu Valley is at the entrance of Qifeng Mountain, but all caravans who want to enter Qifeng Mountain and cross Fengming Ridge have to pass through Qingzhu Valley, because Qingzhu Valley is the only way to Fengming Ridge, so if the officers and soldiers of Dahe County want to attack Feifeng Village, they must first pass through Qingzhu Valley.

Originally, if the enemy was not many in number, they could completely take a shortcut from the periphery of Qifeng Mountain to quietly touch Fengming Ridge, but the enemy who came this time was the garrison of Dahe County, and if those garrisons dared to come to attack the village and suppress bandits, then their number of soldiers should be relatively large, at least around 1,000 people.

Such a large group of officers and soldiers, with horses and heavy mule carts, if they want to touch Fengmingling through a rugged and remote shortcut, it is simply impossible, so if they want to approach Feifengzhai smoothly, there is only one road for them to walk, and this road is Qingzhu Valley.

When Ye Zheng and the others arrived at Qingzhu Valley, they looked at the time, and it was about ten o'clock in the morning.

Looking at the scorching sun overhead, Ye Zheng secretly regretted in his heart why he didn't come to bury the mine earlier, if he had led someone to bury the mine last night, then he wouldn't have been so anxious today.

It's almost noon now, and I don't know if the officers and soldiers in Dahe County have appeared near Qifeng Mountain, just as Ye Zheng was still thinking about it, suddenly, he heard a fast horse galloping in front of him, and in a blink of an eye, that person came to him as soon as he rode it.

Ye Zheng fixed his eyes and found that the person who came on horseback was Li Shiqing, the master of the four halls, and his heart moved at the moment, and he hurriedly asked: "Hall Master Li, have you found the movements of the officers and soldiers?"

Li Shiqing turned over and dismounted beautifully, came to Ye Zheng's face, bowed respectfully and returned: "Lord of the village, my subordinates came here to inform you about this matter. ”

Ye Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Then it's hard for Hall Master Li, I don't know where the officers and soldiers of Dahe County are now? How many people have they come in total?"

Li Shiqing replied respectfully: "According to the news that I sent out the farthest horse to explore and send back, it is said that the officers and soldiers of Dahe County have arrived at the mouth of the eagle thirty miles away at this moment, and the soldiers and horses they came here this time should be about 1,000, and it is estimated that in a few hours, they will enter the boundary of our Qifeng Mountain." ”

Ye Zheng nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, "If those officers and soldiers want to attack Fengming Ridge, is this Qingzhu Valley the only way to pass? I wonder if there are other roads around here that are conducive to the officers and soldiers attacking our cottage?"

Hearing Ye Zheng's question, Li Shiqing shook his head again and again, and said: "There are so many soldiers and horses, if you want to attack Fengming Ridge, this Qingzhu Valley is the only road, although there are also a few remote paths in other places, but the terrain there is treacherous and rugged, which is not conducive to the walking of the brigade at all, so my subordinates feel that the officers and soldiers of Dahe County, if they really want to attack our Fengming Ridge this time, they will definitely go to this Qingzhu Valley!"

When Ye Zheng learned that this Qingzhu Valley was the only way for those officers and soldiers to pass, he was also relieved, he lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said: "Hall Master Li, you go and inform all the brothers of your four halls now, and let them all return to Qingzhu Valley, as long as you leave a few brothers who are in good spirits and keep an eye on the movements of the officers and soldiers in front at any time." ”

Li Shiqing was stunned when he heard this, and said, "Owner of the village, do you want to ambush and intercept the officers and soldiers again?"

Ye Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, I'm going to intercept them here." ”

Li Shiqing was slightly silent for a moment, and said, "Village master, there is a sentence that my subordinates don't know whether to say or not?"

Ye Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Say, just be it, I don't like other people's mothers-in-law." ”

Li Shiqing exhaled deeply and said: "Village master, do you know that in the last battle between our cottage and the Black Dragon Village, the brothers' weapons and armor were all damaged, and the bows and arrows were almost consumed, plus the lord of Deng Zhai, the lord of Tang Zhai and some leaders with strong martial arts all left the mountain to treat their injuries, and now we can't find a few decent warriors in the cottage, and at present, in the entire cottage, only me and a few leaders of Yitang are barely considered first-class warriors, not to mention the other brothers." The owner of the village, the current situation of our cottage is that the soldiers are sparse and weak, and if we want to use this to intercept those well-equipped and prepared officers and soldiers, I am afraid that ...... I'm afraid that we will suffer a big loss! The owner of the village, his subordinates feel that judging from the current situation of the cottage, the best way to deal with those officers and soldiers is to take advantage of the advantages we are familiar with and deal with them, and we can only outwit them, not be able to defeat them!"

After listening to Li Shiqing's words, Ye Zheng frowned and said, "What's the matter? Are those officers and soldiers in Dahe County very powerful? They haven't fought yet, and it's still unknown who wins and who loses, is it necessary to be so nervous?"

Li Shiqing saw that what he said just now seemed to make him a little displeased, and suddenly, he felt nervous in his heart, and hurriedly explained respectfully: "Don't misunderstand the owner of the village, his subordinates definitely don't have the idea of growing other people's ambition and destroying their own prestige, but those officers and soldiers are the garrison of Dahe County, they are well-equipped, and they are equipped with strong bows and strong shields, if we shoot arrows and throw guns from a long distance, the damage to them will be limited, but they will be threatened by their strong bows." If we send a brother who is proficient in martial arts to rush forward and attack at close range, not to mention that the other party's troops are more numerous than ours, the captain who led the officers and soldiers, with the strength of his third-level samurai, can fight us with heavy casualties, not to mention, among the 1,000 officers and soldiers, there are no samurai of first-level and second-level strength, if the two sides want to compare the strength and equipment, those officers and soldiers in Dahe County are really much stronger than us. ”

After Ye Zheng saw that he had explained so much nervously, he suddenly said with an indifferent expression: "Hall Master Li, what you are worried about is reasonable, and it is all right, but you seem to have forgotten a very important matter!"

Li Shiqing was stunned for a moment and said, "What's the matter, my subordinates don't know?"

Ye Zheng laughed and said: "Have you forgotten that I still have that powerful firearm in my hand? My firearm can even kill the blue and black dragon, what can a third-level strength captain count? Don't worry, Hall Master Li, don't be afraid of what you were worried about just now, I have my own plan in my heart, you just need to do what I tell you to do." ”

As soon as these words came out, Li Shiqing suddenly woke up, patted his head again and again, and said secretly: "I am really confused, how could I forget this, the owner of the village has a powerful and terrifying firearm in his hand, and the firearm is so powerful that even the sixth-level martial artist Blue Black Dragon can kill it, and those officers and soldiers are a ball." ”

As soon as he thought of the last time Ye Zheng led Niu Tiezhu and others to hold AK47s, a series of crazy strafing, and the guys in Black Dragon Village were killed and injured countless times, and he had no power to resist, and suddenly felt that his worries just now were really superfluous.

Thinking of this, Li Shiqing couldn't help but smile awkwardly and said, "Owner of the village, that ...... That, but the subordinates are ignorant, what you just ordered, the subordinates will do it immediately, and promise that all the brothers of the four halls will rush back to Qingzhu Valley to set up an ambush within an hour. ”

Ye Zheng nodded after hearing this, and said, "Go ahead, if there is any change in those officers and soldiers, remember to notify me as soon as possible." ”

"Subordinates obey ......"

Li Shiqing turned over and got on his horse, and disappeared into the mountain road in an instant.
