By this time it was late at night, and there were still four or five hours before dawn, and there was not much time left in the dream. Fortunately, it was only ten miles to walk east with the ridge back to the Storm Pass, and although it could not maintain the same speed as walking on flat ground, it could be reached in three or four hours, and it was still time to touch the Storm Pass before dawn.

After walking for about three hours, the dream of the East China Sea team finally reached the edge of a cliff. And below the cliff, it is the Storm Earthquake Pass.

Looking down from this angle, the entire storm gate can be seen at a glance. The height of the two east-west walls is about the same, more than four meters high, and the distance between them is only thirty meters. The length of the east and west sides is slightly longer, about 50 meters, and there is a small space in between, according to Zhang Wei's rough estimate, if it can accommodate 500 people at most.

In other words, the number of enemies that the Eastern Navy has to face is not very large. As long as the dreamer can successfully seize the north wall of the storm and open a convenient door for the attack under the mountain, he should be able to end the war quickly. That's the good news.

Looking down from the heights, there are about 50 soldiers on night duty in the storm gate at this time, a team of 10 people patrols back and forth in the camp, a team of 10 people is stationed on the south side of the city wall, and the remaining 30 people are all responsible for the north wall, almost a little more than a meter There is one person.

But the thirty men in charge of the north wall were not all fixed posts, but twenty fixed posts plus ten mobile posts. The ten men were divided into two teams of five and patrolled back and forth on the north wall. Due to the position of the two patrols, at any given time, one of them faces the west of the man in his dreams.

So this creates a serious question of how people climb off a cliff in a dream without being noticed. The so-called going up the mountain is easy and difficult to descend, and climbing the cliff is even more so, because there is no foothold under the feet, so most people feel fear and then hesitate. The only thing that is no problem is Zhang Wei, as a former special soldier, it is impossible for him not to have trained rope landing, but he can't rely on him alone to snatch control of the city wall, so the others still have to find a way to go down.

Huang Zhi, as a big man, walked to the edge of the cliff and looked down, he had a feeling of weak legs, not to mention the two female surnames in the team. If it's usual, you can give everyone enough time to warm up and take your time one by one, but at this time, you have to go down together as quickly as possible.

It can be said that as soon as the first person starts to rappel, one of the patrols on the north wall will see them as soon as possible and send a warning signal. If the person in the dream can't complete the rappel of most of the people when the other party gathers on the edge of the cliff, then Zhang Wei, who goes down first, will inevitably have to face the attacks of dozens of people alone, even if he is already a rank master, I am afraid that he will not be able to do it.

"Alas, as long as you can go down quickly, this point of the enemy is not enough to see." Zhang Wei hated himself for not thinking of giving his teammates a rappelling training, otherwise he wouldn't have to worry about it today. With the current teamwork of the East Sea Team, on a wall of the width of the Storm Pass, no matter how many enemies come to it, it can easily support it for more than five minutes.

Sima Fuqiang lay on the edge of the cliff and watched for a while, and came to a conclusion, "We only have thirty seconds, this is impossible!" We don't have enough ropes, and even if everyone can reach the level of Renwei, they can't complete the full rappelling in such a short time. ”

"Then let's jump!" Xiaofeng is starting to have bad ideas again.

After saying this, he himself had already hidden behind the waning moon.

But Sima Fuqiang surprisingly did not reprimand him, but instead looked down seriously, obviously assessing the viability of this suggestion.

This cliff that stumps the person in the dream is only five meters high, and if you really want to jump, you really can't fall to death, and you may not even break your hands and feet. And the East China Sea team has Li Sha here, even if it really breaks hands and feet, what does it matter.

But if everyone jumps down together, in addition to Zhang Wei, who has really practiced, and Xiaofeng, who has the exclusive skill of "agility" and has reached the C rank, the rest of the teammates will definitely be injured.

In the final analysis, it was a matter of time, no matter how fast Li Sha's healing speed was, it was impossible to deal with so many wounded people at the same time in half a minute, and at most two people could be treated. And after the enemy surrounded him, how could such a large number of wounded soldiers fight, so the act of jumping off the cliff was tantamount to sending him to death.

Although Huang Ying rarely expressed her opinions, she couldn't help but complain when she looked at the slightly empty wall in the south, "If our goal is the south, it will be much easier." ”

When Sima Fuqiang heard this, he looked south, and the ten guards of the mob army were scattered at the top of the fifty-meter-long wall, with an average of five meters each, and there was no patrol. And because they are facing the safety of the northern plains of Storm County, these people are obviously suspected of being lazy, and they are all leaning on the city wall and pretending to sleep, I am afraid that they may not wake up if they are touched in front of them by the people in their dreams.

Sima Fuqiang felt like he had seen the moon at the moment, and turned his gaze to the camp between the two walls. In addition to the three silent barracks, only the ten-man patrol was divided into two teams, each responsible for a road between the two barracks. Due to the blockage of the premises, they could not see each other most of the time, so there was a difference in walking speed, resulting in the phenomenon that both patrols would walk in the same direction most of the time.

Sima Fuqiang simply touched the south side of the cliff, that is, above the southern wall of the storm pass, and then looked at the north wall, because the light was too dark, the patrol team over there basically couldn't see the southern section of the cliff clearly, and it was impossible to pay attention to the situation here.

"Huang Ying, you are amazing!" Finally solving the last troublesome problem, Sima Fuqiang couldn't help but turn around and hug the woman. Immediately, he also realized that his behavior was a little ambiguous, and quickly let the other party go like a thief.

But the teammates obviously saw this scene, and just pretended that nothing had happened.

As for Huang Ying herself, who was "sneak attacked" by the captain, there was a hot feeling on her face, and her heart was pounding. If it weren't for the lack of moonlight, she was even worried that her teammates would see the red glow rising on her face. However, there is an indescribable sweetness in her heart, and Sima Fuqiang's actions that he couldn't help but act just now still exposed his heart, and everything was unspoken.

Seeing the embarrassed look on the captain's face, it is estimated that the words are not very smooth, anyway, Zhang Wei has already understood his idea, so he will take the command instead of Sima Fuqiang.

"Now things are very simple, Xiao Qi, you are the first to go down. Immediately start 'Stealth' at the top of the wall. If you can, you'll be in charge of the most recent one. Don't let him fall so that the nine people in the distance won't notice this side. ”

"Got it, Master!" Xiao Qi nodded, ready to go down.

"Wait, what's the hurry?" Zhang Wei stopped him, and then assigned other people's tasks, "Wanyue is responsible for pulling the rope and letting people down, so you are the queen of the palace." Is there a problem? ”

Wanyue shook her head, she is a big man, and she jumped down, how can she be afraid of this.

Zhang Wei saw that there was no problem on his side, and turned his head to look at the other people, "Xiaofeng went down the second, and after going down, he quickly approached the first guard who was killed by Xiao Qi and hid behind him." If someone finds out, you kill people. Otherwise, you are responsible for covering Xiao Qi's attack on the second target. ”

"Understood!" Xiaofeng obviously can't be as quiet as Wanyue.

Zhang Wei turned his head to look at his brother again, "Shixin, you are responsible for guarding, if the scene gets out of control, it will be suppressed by your bow and arrow." ”

This five-meter-high cliff is simply Huang Zhi's bunker, standing here, his strike range can cover the entire storm level. Rather than letting him go down to fight in close quarters, it would be better to leave him alone on the mountain to make the greatest impact.

The other people's tasks are more secondary, as long as they see the right time to descend and don't let the two patrols in the pass see it. It has been observed that the two patrols go back and forth for two minutes at a time, with about forty seconds of each team facing away from the cliff, and at least one team facing this direction for the remaining one minute and twenty seconds.

And it is very easy to drop one person in forty seconds, and it is not a problem to even two female team members, and the male team members can seize this time to drop two or three people.

After everything was ready, Zhang Wei tied a knot in the rope and made a rope loop that people could step on, and then the other end was pulled by the waning moon with the greatest strength, and put Xiao Qi down first, while he himself lay on the edge of the cliff to command.

Since it was the first attempt, there were problems with coordination, so it took a little longer for Xiao Qi to go down, almost half a minute. In this way, Xiaofeng, who was supposed to go down for the second time, would have to wait until a minute and a half later, and during this time, he could only rely on Xiao Qi alone to support him below.

However, it is clear that none of the guards on the south wall of the Storm Pass will pay attention to the cliff beside them, which is also a habit that has been cultivated for many years, and no one would have thought that someone would come down from there tonight. Xiao Qi landed safely and immediately entered the state of "sneaking", and after watching for a while, he confirmed that the guard closest to him did not notice the situation here at all, so he tiptoed over, and according to the method taught by his master Zhang Weijiao, he stabbed the guard to death with a dagger, and did not let the other party make any sound.

Hold the opponent's body well, lean against the female wall, and prevent him from falling, and then Xiao Qi continued to use the "stealth" skill and hid behind this person.

A minute and a half later, Xiaofeng went down for the second time, and it took less than twenty seconds. However, for safety reasons, Zhang Wei did not let the third person go down, but personally showed his teammates a fast and professional rappelling. It took him less than five seconds to land firmly on the wall.

Xiaofeng had already reached Xiao Qi's side, and Xiao Qi had already begun to move towards the second target. The guards on the walls still didn't know that death was approaching them step by step.

With the three of them in place, the southern wall of the Storm Pass can be said to be under the control of the Dream Man, and now it is just necessary to do a better job, trying not to let anyone on this side make a sound.

Another minute and a half passed, and Sima Fuqiang and Wuyang also came down. And the first three have advanced to the fifth. The remaining five were unaware, and the two patrols in the pass couldn't see what was happening on the city wall, which was more than four meters above them.

On the cliff, Huang Zhi was itching to see it, if it weren't for the whistling sound of his bow and arrows when fired, he would have been able to wipe out the remaining five people with one shot.

He had this worry, but Sima Fuqiang did not, he had already taken out the crossbow loaded with the "assassination arrow" from his weapon bag, and gestured to Zhang Wei in front of him, meaning that he was going to speed up the pace and strive for two rounds of strikes to get the remaining five people at once.

Zhang Wei glanced at the situation in front of him, turned his head and made an OK gesture to the captain, and then signaled his crossbow to be responsible for hitting the farthest tenth person. Xiao Qi had already moved towards the sixth person, and he would be able to succeed immediately, and Zhang Wei motioned for him to deal with the seventh person easily. Xiaofeng, who ran the fastest, was assigned by him to deal with the ninth person, and the eighth person was Zhang Wei's own task.

Wuyang, who was transferred from the same place as Sima Fuqiang, and Huang Zhi were sadly reduced to spectators. Watching the captain silently shoot the farthest person, Huang Zhi couldn't help but salivate over the "assassination arrow".

He also asked the captain for an "assassination arrow" suitable for his own use, but according to Sima Fuqiang, Huang Zhi's one-and-a-half-stone strong bow was relatively long due to its long bow arm, and it could not be aerodynamically transformed like the short arrow used in the hand crossbow to achieve a silencing effect. In other words, the power and effect of arrows are like fish and bear's paws, and you can't have both.

The last five people on the south wall of the Storm Pass were also easily killed, and none of them had time to raise the alarm. The dreamer quietly completed the control of this wall, but unfortunately this is not the result they need. The next round of descent between Li Sha and Huang Ying took one round, and the waning moon climbed down in the sixth round with the assistance of Huang Zhi, which lasted ten minutes from beginning to end.

Huang Zhi retracted the rope and continued to follow his teammates' movements on the cliff.

The person in the dream wants to come down from the south wall, and there are two paths, one is the staircase, and the other is the horse path. But no matter which path they choose, they all end up in the same place. The stairs go from east to west, and the horse road goes from west to east, and finally meet at the south gate of the storm gate. In the middle of the north and south gates of the Storm Gate is a road as wide as the gate, and you can see the situation here at a glance from that end.

In other words, if the dreamer wants to pass through this road with two gates, he must pass through the patrol range of the two patrols in the Kannai. This raises a new question, whether they are going to kill or sneak in.

If you kill it, it will naturally not be as easy as dealing with the southern wall, and it will be difficult not to make some noise. And it's not easy to sneak through.

Zhang Wei had estimated the actions of the two patrols in advance. If we consider a single patrol team, one round trip every two minutes, that is, the patrol team is facing the passage for 30 seconds with its back to the passage and facing the passage for 30 seconds, and these two situations occur alternately. But considering that the patrol was two teams, and that there was exactly twenty seconds between them, the dreamer would have only ten seconds to see if both teams were facing away from the aisle, which was more troublesome than the rope landing.

Because of the limited space inside the storm gate, whether it is the horse road or the staircase, it is next to the barracks, and after going down to the ground, the dreamer can only rush to the opposite side in one go, and there is absolutely no place to hide temporarily. Otherwise, the distance of thirty meters would have to be run in one go, and it would definitely not take ten seconds.

Although the patrol team could not see the wall, the stairs of the horse road were clear at a glance. Therefore, the ten seconds of the person in the dream is the total time from the south wall to the north wall. After repeated calculations, only Xiaofeng could do this, but the other team members were a little reluctant.

Moreover, the horse path and stairs are very narrow, which can only accommodate three people in parallel, and the dream people will be divided into three rows to carry out the action of going down alone, and the process of crowding each other will consume some time, and it can almost be said that there is no possibility of all rushing over.

In this case, once the patrol sends a warning signal, the soldiers on the northern wall will quickly block the stairs and horse paths, delaying the time for the dreamer to climb the wall. And then the chain leads to even greater trouble, that is, the sleeping defenders are awakened, and the two ends of the dream man are sandwiched between the stairs or the horse road, which is really a dilemma.

Maybe the dream people are not afraid of these low-level soldiers, but they can't kill all the five hundred people guarding the pass, even if they don't consider the physical strength, the wear and tear of the blade of the weapon alone will make them lose their combat effectiveness.

Some people may think that they can concentrate on rushing to the wall of Beiguan, and for the chasing soldiers behind them, as long as Sima Fuqiang and Wuyang do a good job of defense. But in fact, whether the dreamer chooses the staircase or the horse to climb the wall, the mob army can easily replenish the troops to the wall from another passage, and the speed of reinforcement is definitely faster than the speed of the East China Sea team's killing.

Fortunately, the three stinkers had already thought about this problem when they were on the cliff, otherwise it would have been a big trouble if they came back at this time. Their countermeasure is to combine the two ways, one part quietly touches the past, and the other part hits the past openly.

The first person to be arranged to touch the past was naturally Xiao Qi, who had the "stealth" skill, and only he could ambush on the horse road on the north wall without being discovered. Immediately after Xiao Qi's past, Xiao Feng naturally had a speed beyond ordinary people, and he could easily reach the opposite side, and then wait in the middle of the horse road.

Immediately followed by the most critical step, Zhang Wei performed a "cliff jump" that Xiaofeng was looking forward to, he calculated the right time to jump down from the four-and-a-half-meter-high wall, rolled around, and immediately rushed to the north of the horse road, but it did not alarm the two patrols in the pass at all. But this is only a temporary situation, as long as the two patrols turn around, they can see Xiaofeng and Zhang Wei, who have no "stealth" ability on the road, and they are bound to send out a warning signal.

At this time, the other five dreamers also rushed down from the south side of the road, and went straight to the patrol that had begun to return on the north side of the passage, while the patrol team of the south side of the passage continued to walk east without knowing anything.

After seeing the five gray-clothed men who suddenly appeared, the North Passage Patrol was stunned for a moment, and then saw that the other party had already shown their weapons, so they naturally sounded the gongs and drums in their hands without hesitation, and issued a piercing warning signal in the quiet night. This is also the signal for the general attack agreed between the dreamman and the Yamashita East Navy.
