But things were not as they imagined, and when they arrived at the place where the princess told them, the mountain bandits did not come forward to live or die.

The mountains here are densely wooded and the terrain is complex, Lin Hai did not dare to let the soldiers easily step into such an unfamiliar place, so he ordered to hold this place and consume this group of mountain bandits first.

"Boss, what now?" A mountain bandit looked at the boss sitting in the first seat, his tone was not flustered, obviously trusting him very much.

Sitting in the first seat was a tall and sturdy middle-aged man, with an ordinary appearance, and a scar on his face from the bottom of his left eye to the corner of his mouth on the right side, making his ordinary face a little hideous.

This is the leader of this group of mountain bandits, Huang Dadao.

"The ranks of officers and soldiers under the mountain are not the same as what we usually see." Huang Dadao groaned.

The rest of the younger brothers also recalled, Ying He: "It's really different, the usual officers and soldiers come to walk around like a mess and leave, this batch of him doesn't leave." ”

"Stupid, what the eldest brother said is that the strength of this group of officers and soldiers seems to be relatively strong, and it is not a question of whether to go around or not."

"Who do you call stupid?"

Seeing that the younger brothers were about to quarrel, Huang Dadao immediately stopped their quarrel.

He said slowly: "This group of officers and soldiers are all elite and strong, with excellent weapons and equipment, and we are afraid that we will not be able to defeat them head-on." I heard that Zhong Xiangcheng gave the princess a fief, this should be the soldier's soldier. ”

Xu Jiao suddenly sneezed several times, "Who is talking about me, causing me to sneeze." ”

I don't know if General Lin Hai has arrived, after training for so long, it shouldn't be too difficult to suppress a nest of mountain bandits.

Lin Hai sent a few of the loudest soldiers to shout and curse at the bottom of the mountain, and he believed that there would be soldiers patrolling the mountain who would bring their words to the people in the mountain nest.

The grass moved slightly, and Lin Hai exchanged a look with his team leaders, but the mountain patrol did not notice that there were so many people missing from the team of two thousand people.

"We're stealthily withdrawing." Huang Dadao said.

The nest said to throw it away, this person does have some courage.

The younger brother at the bottom didn't question his decision, but just asked, "Where to withdraw?" ”

"Now immediately, walk from behind the mountain, divide the troops into five roads, and assemble at the Liyang Reservoir."

The younger brothers took their weapons one after another and sorted out valuable things.

The little brother who patrolled the mountain ran back, took a big sip of water, and said angrily: "The mouths of the group of officers and soldiers at the bottom of the mountain are too dirty, and they keep scolding and scolding, and I am so angry that I almost can't help but rush out." ”

"Alright, hurry up and pack your things, let's evacuate."

The mountain bandits divided into five directions and walked into the path, and the soldiers who were secretly following immediately turned back to the bottom of the mountain and reported the situation to Lin Hai.

"Then we are also divided into five routes, and they have less than a hundred people all the way, so there is no threat." Lin Hai immediately ordered the soldiers to pursue them in five directions.

They were very fast, and the bandits did not pay attention to cleaning up the traces when they fled, and the soldiers quickly found them.

Probably not expecting that the officers and soldiers would be able to find their lair so quickly, and find their escape route from the lair, the mountain bandits were very surprised, and they were arrested after a symbolic resistance.

The soldiers tied up the four hundred bandits and brought them down the mountain.

The soldiers who pursued Huang Dadao had not yet returned, so Lin Hai took two teams to take a look at that road.

What is Huang Dadao doing at this time?

He carefully cleaned up the traces of everyone's escape, but the mountain road was too easy to leave clues, and he was always worried in his heart.

It would be nice to have a hostage that would make them throw a rat trap, and the chances of escape would be much greater.

He thought so in his heart, and he couldn't help but say it.

The little brother next to him was elated: "Does the eldest brother want us to tie up the princess, it's really exciting!" ”

"You're stupid." Huang Dadao was angry, and slapped the little brother's head crookedly. "The princess is in the princess's mansion, if you dare to run into the princess's mansion in Zhongxiangcheng to rob someone, you will be immediately tied into a hedgehog."

Huang Dadao took a breath, felt that he needed to give his younger brother a science popularization, and said: "Even if you rob her, your whole family will die together, and your relatives across the eight generations will not be able to escape, and the ancestors are estimated to be dug up and whipped corpses, do you dare to rob her?" ”

"Well, forget it." The younger brother replied cautiously.

"I'm going to rob someone, but I'm not a princess." Huang Dadao raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop, he looked around to confirm the direction, and suddenly walked towards a fork in the road.

"Follow me, this way."

The soldiers who pursued Huang Dadao were very hard, and Huang Dadao's skills in cleaning up the traces were relatively skillful, and it was very difficult for them to identify the traces.

If it weren't for the teacher's lecture on various trace identification methods and trace cover-up methods, they would not have been able to find any clues at all.

Lin Hai quickly found the team in front.

"Why is it so slow, the other four teams are tied up and waiting for you at the bottom of the mountain."

The team leader was a little aggrieved and said: "The traces of the people pursued by our team are very clean, we are afraid of losing them, we identify them very carefully, there are too many forks in the mountain, and if we accidentally identify the wrong one, we will lose it." ”

Lin Haihai checked it first, and the traces were indeed very carefully covered.

"This should be their boss, Huang Dadao."

Lin Hai's people immediately joined the team of trace identification, and the speed was much faster.

When they arrived at the fork in the road where Huang Dadao turned, everyone stopped, and Lin Hai carefully hid in place to check.

"He must have entered the fork in the road." Lin Haidao.

Another squad leader immediately put forward a different opinion: "There are also some traces on this road, what should I do?" ”

Huang Dadao deliberately left a lot of traces here to mislead the pursuers, which came in handy at this time.

Lin Hai gritted his teeth and pointed to the fork in the road: "Right here, we can't divide the troops anymore, the strength of the team led by Huang Dadao must be the strongest, and there is a possibility of heavy losses if the troops are divided." ”

Besides, he had just observed, it may be that he was in a hurry, and some traces were very obvious and fake, only this road, and under the traces of fraud, there were still some traces that a large number of people walked that could not be concealed.

Lin Hai led the soldiers into this fork in the road.

This road is more like a giant tree hole, with dense jungle branches on it, in order not to be scratched by the branches, everyone must hunch their waists and bow their heads forward, but fortunately, there is no fork in the road here, and everyone does not need to bother to identify.

"We've got to hurry, the princess is still waiting for news from us, and we can't let her down."

Xu Jiao was lying on her soft floor at this moment, and the two maids pinched her shoulders, and the two maids took turns feeding her diced fruits.

"Life is so pleasant."

She narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

In her consciousness, she could see that the value of Lin Hai's team of 2,000 people was slowly rising.

71，72，73……

It seems that actual combat is the best way to train soldiers.

At this rate, maybe she will be able to complete this side quest after the bandits.

Xu Jiao smiled happily.
