Chapter 33 Mudslides
The rain continued to rain until dawn. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Counting the number of soldiers, in addition to Zhao Chengping himself, there were only 6 people left, Xin Wei, Qian Feng, Liu Quan, and a scout, two soldiers.
"The losses are huge...... I don't know what the situation is like for Gongsun Zhan. Xin Wei said hatefully.
Zhao Chengping looked into the distance and said calmly: "There are 13 people around him. They are all battle-hardened characters who are not afraid of life and death. To win them, you have to open the golden finger. ”
"Oh oh oh? What cheats do you have? Xin Wei was very excited.
Zhao Chengping gestured with both hands, which was "up and down, left and right, left and right", Xin Wei patted him: "Don't sell it, say it quickly." ”
"No...... It seems that neither of us is the protagonist's life, let's take a step at a time. Zhao Chengping yawned, rested his hands behind his head, and leaned against the stone behind him.
"I'm definitely the protagonist's life! This time we will definitely win! Xin Wei shook his fist.
"Oh, then you go and jump off a cliff, the protagonist can jump down and pick up gold and silver treasures, martial arts cheats, good luck and beautiful women."
Xin Wei's stomach made a "gurgling" sound, and Zhao Chengping laughed and said, "The protagonist will change something for us to eat." ”
As he was talking, someone said, "Yes." ”
From the cliff behind him, a person climbed up, it was Ziggy.
I thought he had been "killed" last night, but when we suddenly met at this time, Zhao Chengping was surprised and delighted: "Are you okay?" Why didn't you keep up last night? ”
Ziggy put down the cloth bag in his hand, which contained wild fruits and a lot of dry food.
"Where did you get that?" Xin Wei asked.
"Last night, the 'dead people' had already come down the mountain and returned to the camp, so they gave me dry food." Ziggy beckoned the others to come and eat with him.
After the food was available, everyone's original depressed mood got better again. They all asked Ziggy how he got past last night.
Qi Ge held a wild fruit in his hand: "When the arrows came over last night, I happened to be a big man under Gongsun Zhan in front of me, and he had a little friendship in the past, he blocked all the arrows for me, and I wanted to go with you, but I remembered that our food was put in the grass shed and didn't take it, and it is estimated that you will not go back to get it, so I will collect the food first, and then catch up with you." ”
Where to find a quartermaster with such a positive and proactive work attitude, Zhao Chengping was very moved.
"Now that everyone is not in the original place, their military flag must be on Gongsun Zhan, there should be many people around him, and the goal is big." Zhao Chengping's mind flashed over the terrain of the mountains and rivers here, he broke a branch and drew a simple picture on the dirt floor:
"Now that we're here, they won't be too far away from us, and since they haven't found out yet, it's very likely that they're waiting here to block us." The branches point to a mountain stream with cliffs on either side.
Zhao Chengping beckoned everyone to come around:
"They must have thought that we would go from the mountain stream and wait on the top of the cliff to capture us, so we couldn't go this way...... But we can climb up from here, jump over from here, and fall right behind them. ”
Qian Feng looked at the place he pointed at and gasped:
"It's not easy to walk here, it's not a road at all. If we arrive too late, they'll know we're not going from there, and that's all it takes. ”
Zhao Chengping said with a smile: "Then where else can you catch them off guard?" ”
All the soldiers gathered around, looked at the map carefully and studied it for a long time, and shook their heads one after another.
"That's the only way, let's go, you're right, if we arrive too late, it's a waste of time." Zhao Chengping stood up and stretched out his feet to wipe the topographic map on the muddy floor, picked up weapons and dry food, and walked in the direction he was looking at.
The other soldiers were very skeptical of Zhao Chengping's thoughts, and Xin Wei picked up his things and immediately followed. Others watched that even a doctor was so determined to carry out military orders, and there was nothing to say, so they got up and set off.
After a night of wind and rain, the original floating soil is washed away by the rain, revealing the rocks and tree roots under the soil layer, and if you walk on it, you will tripped if you are not careful.
A few leaves hang on the branches of the withered trees, and the bare branches sway gently in the wind, which makes it feel like autumn.
The heavens and the earth were silent, except for the sound of hurried soldiers stepping on the dry grass and mud.
The further he goes, the less vegetation there is, Zhao Chengping suddenly stopped, the road section that could have been passed in front of him was traversed by the debris flow, and turned into a steep 60-degree slope, with the strong blowing of the mountain wind, there are gravel on it, and it rolls down from time to time, falling into the abyss under the cliff.
Xin Wei also saw:
"Heh, this is becoming flat. How? In the past? ”
"It has to be!"
Zhao Chengping was just about to take a step when he was pulled by Qian Feng:
"The soil that washes down from the mountain is very soft, and if you are not careful, you will roll off the cliff."
Zhao Chengping smiled: "I'll be careful." After saying that, he was about to move forward, but Xin Wei stopped him: "Wait, tie the rope." ”
After that, he took off his coat and untied the cloth rope wrapped around his body, Qi Ge and Qian Feng, and other soldiers also had it. Zhao Chengping's eyes widened:
"What kind of custom are you?"
Xin Wei smiled proudly: "This is not a custom, when I used to play outdoors, the team leader did this, of course, people's ropes are much more productive than ours, parachute ropes, light and strong." I heard that I was going to run up the mountain, I called a few of them, specially prepared, how good this thing is, you can bandage it when you are injured, it can be used as a packing belt when you bundle things, and it can be used as a safety rope when you can't get mixed up. ”
Zhao Chengping was a little dazed: "When did you play outdoors?" ”
"Even when you and that chick were in love to death, who else did you have in your eyes at that time besides her?" Xin Wei said with disdain.
Thinking of the experience in college, Zhao Chengping pretended to change the topic as if nothing had happened:
"Why haven't you told me about these preparations?"
"Haven't you been standing with Bai Qi all the time, how can I tell you, since you have reached the mountain, it is too late to tell you." While speaking, Xin Wei had already connected the ropes, and everyone took them and wrapped them around their waists.
"Now the eight of us are really grasshoppers on a rope." Xin weiwei laughed.
Zhao Chengping took the lead and stepped into the new soil layer created by the mudslide. After the soil on the mountain was washed and loosened by the rain, there was no solid vegetation around it, so it slid down the mountain, and it was very soft and fell into it when you stepped on it, and there was almost no point of focus.
In addition, there are stones, broken branches, etc., which are wrapped down along the way, which constitute an unstable factor, and it is not impossible to poke the soles of the feet, Zhao Chengping ordered everyone to step on the footprints he has stepped on.
He was the first to cross the collapsed section, stepped on the solid pavement, and turned to look at the people behind him. One, two, and the seventh passed safely.
When Zig was about to pass, there was a sudden noise above his head, and Xin Wei shouted: "Don't come here, it's going to collapse again." ”
Before the words could be spoken, more rocks rained down, and the mudslides rushed down from above, sweeping everything that could be swept away along the way into its sphere of influence, and finally poured from the high cliffs like a waterfall into the abyss.
The two closest people to the mudslide were splashed all over by the muddy water, looking like two terracotta warriors.
After a long time, this wave of mudslides is over, the footprints of the people who passed before are long gone, and I don't know how many new dangers are hidden under the calm soil.
Before the mudslide passed, in order to prevent the mudslide from rushing up the rope and bringing everyone down, Zhao Chengping had already made a quick decision and cut the connection with Zig.
Zhao Chengping asked Qi Ge to find a branch, tied the rope end to the branch and threw it over, in order to be sure, Qi Ge looked around, but there was only wild grass here, how could there be branches, and there was no branch of the right thickness in the soil, so he barely wrapped a stone and threw it over, but he couldn't throw it over.
Ziggy said urgently:
"Don't waste time on this, I'll just go through it."
He bent down, his hands and feet entered the dirt layer at the same time, and he shared the pressure on the soil layer on all fours.
Seeing him getting closer and closer, Zhao Chengping smiled and stretched out his hand to him, his fingertips were almost touched, but at that moment, an accident happened, the stone under Zige's feet suddenly loosened and rolled down, and the whole person suddenly lost his fulcrum, and then immediately rolled down the slope, he inserted his hand into the soil layer beside him in vain, but how could those mud bear his weight.
The shock was abrupt, Zhao Chengping's eyes were fast, his body jumped down suddenly, and grabbed Zig's arm, and the rope on his body was still connected with other people, and it was Xin Wei who was closely connected to Zhao Chengping.
After the others reacted, they struggled to pull a few of them up.
The scene just now was too dangerous, after Zig was pulled up, he sat on the ground and panted, looked at Zhao Chengping, and bowed down:
"Captain Du life-saving grace, I should repay it with broken bones."
Zhao Chengping pointed to the others:
"It's not my credit alone, if it weren't for them, we would both go down."
Xin Wei, who was busy collecting the rope, smiled:
"You're welcome, Lieutenant, if you don't react quickly and jump down and catch him first, what's the use of having a few of us."
Zhao Chengping glanced at him, and Zhao Chengping understood that this was his idea that as a commander, he needed to be powerful in the army, and "the credit should be given to the people", which was not applicable during the war.
Zhao Chengping patted Qige: "How is it, are you injured?" ”
Ziggy shook his head and stood up: "It's okay, let's go quickly." ”
Zhao Chengping's actions just now made everyone admire, not to mention just taking a dangerous road, even if it is a sea of swords and fires, as long as Zhao Chengping gives an order, they will move forward.
Again, the system prompts:
Reach 300 prestige and trigger the skill "Everyone's Desired".
After using the skill, the people in the team, even if they are the enemy's spies, will be dead set on him, and they will never say anything about where to fight.
"That's good." Zhao Chengping smiled and continued to look down: "Everyone needs to reach 500 charm points to cast." ”
Speaking of which...... In addition to adding 100 points to this charm value during the Empress Dowager Xuan's dormitory incident, he didn't care about it after that, he quickly checked his charm value, damn, 490.
The description of the charm value shows that only the opposite sex in this space has a sincere affection for her, which can be increased, the initial charm value is 100 points, 100 points for the Empress Dowager Xuan, 100 points for each of the emerald silk and red silk, and 90 points are contributed by nine palace maids, not the main character, and even the charm value can only help add 10 points......
Finally, there is a parenthesis for this skill: after the skill is cast, it can last for 24 hours...... Zhao Chengping was a little speechless, originally thinking that the people in the team were all dead, so this task was simply too easy to complete...... Sure enough, a pie-in-the-sky good thing is impossible.
"It's just ahead." The soldiers in front pointed not far away, Zhao Chengping stepped forward to take a look, hehe, sure enough, Gongsun Zhan and his team were squatting in the grass below, but they didn't know that the praying mantis was catching cicadas, but the cicadas turned into yellow finch
