Chapter 12: Jungle Ambush

"Rings with more space are only available to dignitaries or high-ranking figures in the Wizards' Guild, and I've only heard of them. This is still my birthday present, although it is small, but it is still worth tens of thousands of gold coins. Qiu Yuan looked a little reluctant as she put her space ring on Luo Wen's finger.

"It's so valuable! I can't see it! Thank you, buddy, although this is my trophy, but you have performed well during this time, and I will explain to you on the way not to embarrass you. As soon as Luo Wen heard that this thing was so valuable, he wouldn't let Qiu Yuan redeem it, "Dude, we've got the ring thing done, let's continue to teach me how to read." ”

After a few days of pause, his study career began again, this time not only the little fat man, but also Luo Wen chose two clever boys to join their "preschool", and the textbook was still only this "Basics of Magic". The two new boys, one named El, the other named Zack, are as old as the little fat man, sixteen years old, Rowan knows the importance of talent, and cultivating his own talent is the top priority.

The four of them were learning energetically, and the newly appointed deputy captain of the reconnaissance company, Bao Ma, ran over out of breath and told Luo Wen the bad news: the Dajin Empire had pursuers chasing after him. Luo Wen was stunned for a moment, and the secret path was so fast, it only took half a day to find out and catch up. "How many people are coming, what team is there, and how far are we from us?" Lovan asked Bauma.

"I'm too far away to count, but I estimate that there must be at least a hundred or so men, and a dozen cavalrymen, and it will take about half a day to catch up with us. Bauma replied.

"Okay, you bring another person with you, leave one person to watch them, and one person can come back at any time to report the situation. I'm going to call everyone to speed up. Rowan thought about it.

So the "preschool" was temporarily disbanded, and Rowan told everyone about the situation, and then asked everyone to speed up and try to enter Maple Leaf Mountain before the enemy caught up, and since they caught up, it seemed that this battle was inevitable. By noon, the White Ash troops finally arrived at Maple Leaf Mountain.

"It's finally here, senior brother, how are you going to kill them?" the little fat man asked Lo Wen.

"Hey, I'm very confident in my brother, but there are more than 100 enemies. Luo Wen smiled, and secretly said that the little fat man was really fat with a wide heart and a fat body.

"Under the command of the senior brother's wisdom and martial arts, no matter how many enemies come, it will be a drizzle!"

"Since you have faith in Senior Brother, Senior Brother will not disappoint you!" Luo Wen's heart perked.

"There's new news! Uncle Ergui is back!" Luo Wen saw Uncle Ergui come back.

When Uncle Ergui approached, Luo Wen found that Uncle Ergui had a gloomy face, "How is it?"

"Bauma was caught by their cavalry. Uncle Ergui said bitterly, "But fortunately, I didn't kill him, maybe I wanted him to lead the way." ”

"As long as he's okay now, we'll get him out. Don't worry!" The bearded man patted Uncle Ergui on the shoulder, Baoma was from the same village as them, and everyone was very sad when they heard the news.

"Yes, yes, we'll get him out. Now listen to me, this time we will adopt the method of guerrilla warfare, set up all kinds of traps, and fight without direct contact with the enemy. Rowan then spoke his mind to the crowd and selected ten able-bodied ones to be in charge of the trap.

"My lord, there is Maple Mountain in front, it seems that this team of displaced people knows that they can't beat us, so they hide in it, and it's not easy to find it when they enter the mountain. "This is Cha Yi, the deputy commander of this chasing army.

"Hmph! A group of outcasts, don't be afraid! This time, I brought Master Mo with me, and I will be able to deal with them!" led the team was the centurion Niu Shi, who snorted at the air with a disdainful face.

"Ah! My lord brought Master Mo with me! My lord is really wise and powerful, his eyes are like torches, and his decisions are thousands of miles away!

"Let the captive lead the way, and order the two archers to follow him, and shoot him if he wants to run!"

"Yes, sir!"

The Dajin Empire's pursuers followed the trails left by the outcasts to the woods.

"Leave five people at the foot of the mountain to watch the horses, and the rest are divided into ten teams, each team will go up the mountain at an interval of ten meters to search, and once found, they will be executed on the spot!" Niu Shi waved his big knife and ordered the team to enter the mountain, next to a man holding a staff and wearing a black robe stood quietly, Niu Shi respectfully saluted the man, "Master Mo, if there is a situation, please help." ”

"Well, of course. After Master Mo finished speaking, he ignored Niu Shi, and Niu Shi was not angry, as if he was used to it.

The highest peak of Mt. Maple is more than 1,000 meters, and the undulating height is continuous, and it divides the prone area into two parts, with the Akita Plains on one side and the late summer hills on the other. Due to the humid climate, the mountains are dense all year round, and the deeper you go, there are also magical beasts, and it is also a favorite place for all adventurers in the Moss Empire.

It was noon, and although there was sun, the sun passed through the dense foliage and finally shone on the ground. The search team was fanning up the mountain, when suddenly one of the middle team screamed "ah", and two people fell into a half-man-high pit at the same time, and the sharpened branches under the pit were all pointed upwards, and although the two people were not dead, they were also crippled.

"These Diao people, tell everyone to be careful!" Niu Shi roared.

"Lowan, it's a success!" said the bearded man, as the leader of the trap digging, was excited to see that his work had succeeded.

"Go on, everybody, use all the methods I taught you, let them taste our awesomeness!" Lowen was happy to see that the trap had succeeded.

"Report! There's a trap here. A Daikin Empire soldier reported.

"Mark it and get out of the way!"

"Ahh

As the search progressed, the Dajin Empire had searched the mountainside, and traces of the homeless people could be seen everywhere, but none of the figures were found, and people were constantly injured. By the time the sun went down during the search, there were already ten people who had lost their combat effectiveness due to the trap.

"My lord, it's going to get dark soon, why don't you tell the team to gather together, have a good night's rest, and continue tomorrow?" Zha Yi asked Niu Shi.

"Well, I ordered everyone to gather in this meadow and defend the way of rest. Niu Shi pointed to the fairly spacious grassland in front of him, where the view was wide, and he was not afraid of these homeless people doing things around.

The pursuers of the Dajin Empire formed a circle in this meadow, ate dried meat, rested, and sent people to patrol in turn, and there were people squatting and sentry in the book.

At this time, Luo Wen took Xiaobai and the bearded man to watch all this from a distance in the woods, and Luo Wen carefully observed the distribution of their sentries, and then returned to the big army with the bearded two.

"We're going to have a big vote tonight......! ...... like this," Lowan's ghost ideas came one after another.

"Senior brother, why didn't I realize that you were so smart before, you were stupid before. The little fat man looked at Lovan with admiration.

"You know 5,000 years of history, and you can be so smart. Rowan rolled his eyes.

"I don't know a few words, and I know the history of 5,000 years, you liar. The little fat man looked incredulous.

"I can understand the history of 5,000 years from the words I learned, do you believe it or not?" Lowen teased.

El, Zach and the little fat man shook their heads neatly: "Don't believe it!"

"If you don't believe it, it means that you are not stupid, ahahaha. Rowan smirked.

By midnight, the soldiers of the Daikin Empire had fallen asleep.

One of the sentries in the tree was squatting with a numb leg and was about to get up and move, when there was a "whoosh", an arrow plunged into his chest, and it fell from the tree, and with a soft "poof" fell into the grass, and at the same time, the other sentries in the tree were all shot down by an arrow.

The first phase was successful, and the second phase of the program was immediately implemented. The team divided into more than 20 people and planted all kinds of sharp branches prepared during the day on the ground and scattered them, and then ten brave men who dared to catch snakes threw all the prepared snakes towards the enemy's resting camp, and then Rowan ordered everyone to retreat, and after the sharp branches, the prepared traps were laid again.

When everything was ready, the "coo" ordered everyone to retreat, and after retreating to the land of an arrow, the bearded man grabbed his bow and shot an arrow at the enemy camp. A "whoosh" broke the silence of the enemy camp.

"Ah!!h

"Everyone, get out! Move this way!" Cha Yi's roar gave everyone a backbone, and shifted in the direction of the torch that Cha Yi had lit. With a "whoosh", Cha Yi was shot.

"There are archers!All flames out!Follow me!" Niu Shi took command. In the middle of the night, the three watches, reaching out and not seeing the five fingers, how could the hundred or so people be able to find the direction by listening to the sound, the noise at this time covered up the roar of Niu Shi. "Master Mo, please help me. ”

A small fireball flew in the dark night, slowly rising, illuminating Master Mo and Niu Shi standing aside, "whoosh" The sound of a bow and arrow breaking through the air came from far and near, but when it arrived in front of Master Mo, it was blocked by an invisible shield and fell to the ground, and the soldiers of the Dajin Empire looked at the fireballs in the air and approached in the direction of Master Mo, and gradually settled down.

I saw Master Mo's staff pointing at the snakes, and there were words in his mouth, and several large fireballs burned all the snakes to death in a row, and the smell of meat wafted up.

"Hmph, carving insect skills!" Master Mo snorted, and then put away his staff. As soon as Niu Shi saw it, he ordered the team to retreat to the original rest area, and named more than 20 people to search in the direction from which the bow and arrow were fired.

"Loewen, the enemy has a magician! Retreat!" the bearded man saw that the situation was not good, and pulled Lowen to say.

"I'm rubbing, it's so grand to deal with us!" Lovin told the group to retreat in a hurry.

Besides, the more than 20 scouts sent by the Dajin Empire, as soon as they came out of the rest area, some were injured by the sharp branches in ambush on the ground and returned in vain, and those who were lucky not to be injured by the branches were crippled by the traps, and only a few of the more than 20 soldiers finally walked out safely, and finally had to give up the reconnaissance.

Niu Shi looked at this situation, don't think about being able to touch the hair of this branch of the homeless tonight, let's wait until tomorrow.
