The night dew is deep and cold.

Zhang Chu was still sitting in the rugged Juyi Hall studying the map of Xuanling County.

"Helper, the noodles just out of the pot are hot, you can eat two bites and then continue to be busy......"

Da Liu walked into the hall with a big bowl of steaming.

Zhang Chu took the basketball-sized noodle bowl, fixed his eyes, a small half bowl of noodles, a large half bowl of black pheasant chicken pieces, and said with a smile: "With your skill, you have to go out to set up a stall to ensure that you lose money to your grandmother's house." ”

Da Liu smiled honestly: "No, the pheasant was called, and I didn't go to the capital." ”

Zhang Chu thought about it, is it really, how can a business without capital come from a loss?

"What about your own?"

"You don't care about me, there's a little half pot in the pot. “

"Then eat yours, I don't need you to serve here. ”

"Yes, you called me for something. “

"Go ahead. ”

Zhang Chu waved at him.

Da Liu exited the lobby and did not pull the door.

Zhang Chu picked up a piece of pheasant chicken and threw it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.

He doesn't like to eat game very much.

Fishy game.

However, Da Liu's craftsmanship is not bad, and the pheasant chicken pieces stewed with shiitake mushrooms over low heat have umami neutralized the fishy smell, and they are also very chewy.

A piece of pheasant chicken was in his belly, and Zhang Chu was about to pick up the second piece, when he heard three knocks on the wood outside the hall, which was very light, like the sound of a woodpecker pecking at pests with the night wind.

He put down his chopsticks and said softly, "Come in." ”

As the words fell, a sturdy figure wrapped in a night robe walked in, nodded to the ground on one knee under the hall, waved his hand and said: "Your Majesty, the first line of Majiazhuang Baolu Mountain has been thoroughly investigated. ”

"Speak!"

"Baolu Mountain is a line of sky, the total length is three miles, the cliffs on both sides are ten zhang high, all are hard stone mountains, and the narrowest place can only accommodate one carriage to pass......"

Zhang Chu slowly frowned.

This Baolu Mountain is a line of heaven......

How so?

It's not that it's not unsuitable for ambushes.

It's too suitable for ambushes!

It is suitable to see, the person who set up the ambush sees that line of heaven and thinks that this place is suitable for ambush, and the person who is ambushed sees that line of heaven and also thinks that this place is suitable for ambush.

The ambush is based on the terrain, yes.

But it's even more unexpected!

Once the ambushed person is on guard, no matter how clever the trap is, the power will be greatly reduced!

Moreover, the elite team of Wan's Heavenly Sword Gate, but with the old rivers and lakes leading the team, such an obvious trap is probably useless!

Zhang Chu frowned, opened the noodle bowl, and once again turned out the simple map of Xuanling County to examine it carefully.

According to the map, this line of heaven is the only way from Chongxiang County to Ganyi County.

To the northeast of Ganyi County is Dongyu County, which leads from Xuanbei County to Beiyu County.

In terms of orientation, this road is indeed the most suitable place to set up an ambush.

If the elite sect members of the Wan Clan Heavenly Sword Sect were led in this direction, they would only think that Wu Laojiu was ready to flee back to Beiyin County after making the last vote......

He secretly entered Xuanling County, and specially arranged a stand-in to pretend to be him in Taiping Town, and the Wan Heavenly Sword Gate should not know that he had entered Xuanling County now.

This is a great advantage.

"The southeast end of the first line of Baolu Mountain, the distance to this end of Ganyi County, is there any suitable place for ambush?"

"Places like valleys, cliffs, etc.!"

Zhang Chu asked.

The shadow guard spy under the hall recalled for a moment and replied: "After returning to the lord, out of the first line of Baolu Mountain, it is a flat river, and there is no dangerous place. “

Zhang Chu's brows condensed into a Sichuan character.

He took out the three pieces of paper pressed under the copper tiger paperweight on the desk, and scanned it back and forth in his hand, his face cloudy.

Plan 1, Camellia Town broke the bridge and struck, ×.

Plan 2, Jinsha County plank road pinching, ×.

Plan 3, Majiazhuang ambushed ......× on the front line.

It took him a day and a half to come up with three plans.

One night's time, all to him denied!

He is not discouraged.

This is a very normal thing, after all, he wants to solve two five-grade and three six-grade without blood, and he can't be too cautious.

But the problem is that he doesn't have time to re-plan and physically investigate......

The purpose of his coming to Xuanling County was not to form a team of miscellaneous fish composed of two five-rank and three sixth-grade!

It's Wanjiangliu!

Zhang Chu took a deep breath, and the hesitation in his eyes quickly dissipated.

He was reluctant to use explosives packages against the pair of people and horses of the Wan Clan's Heavenly Sword Gate.

If you don't want people to know, you can't do it unless you do.

With the use of explosive packs, it is impossible to leave no traces.

When the time comes, it will be a big trouble to be tracked down by someone with a heart......

But the current form no longer allows him to have many concerns.

Zhang Chu put down the plan at hand and asked in a deep voice: "The distance from the southeast end of Baolu Mountain to the end of Ganyi County, is there a mountain inn?"

"Yes. ”

This time, the shadow guard scies in the hall answered quickly, "Twenty miles southeast of Baolu Mountain, there is a black shop, which is engaged in robbing people's money and taking people's buns. ”

"Good!"

Zhang Chu smiled slightly: "I also like to do business...... How many hours is there to get from Chongxiang County to this inn?"

"Hurry up, an hour and a half. ”

Zhang Chu: "Send someone to take over the black shop immediately, and I will arrive there before noon tomorrow!"

The shadow guard is responsible for finding out and delivering news, and most of its members are elites selected from all walks of life, ready to enter an unfamiliar environment at any time and obtain target information as quickly as possible.

It is easy to find a few elite spies who can be qualified for the professions of shopkeeper, shopkeeper and groom, etc., and it is guaranteed to be in their true colors, and no one can find the slightest fault.

"Whoa!"

The shadow guard scouts under the hall got up and lightly exited the Juyi Hall.

Zhang Chu served the chicken noodle soup that was about to solidify, and stared at the map of Xuanling County on the case while eating the noodles.

The team of Wan's Heavenly Sword Gate is stationed in Fu'an County.

From Fu'an County to Chongxiang County, it also takes more than three hours to ride a horse.

In this way, it takes almost four and a half hours from Fu'an County to the black shop...... Nine hours away?

Messaging, drinking, and so on, you have to set aside another one to two hours of flexible time.

Eleven or twelve hours.

"Whirring ......"

Zhang Chu drank the last mouthful of chicken soup into his stomach and said loudly: "Come on, spread that Elder Wu is coming to see me!"

Not long after, Wu Laojiu, who was dressed in black casual clothes, trotted into the Juyi Hall, bowed respectfully and waved his hands and said, "Subordinate Wu Laojiu, please meet the helper." ”

"No need to be polite!"

Zhang Chuwen said: "I'm very sorry to send you an errand so late." ”

Wu Laojiu just straightened his waist, and when he heard the words, he hurriedly shook it to the end again: "The helper's words can be tormented by his subordinates, and it is a blessing for his subordinates to be able to share the worries of the helper!"

His courtesies have always been very thorough.

On the surface, Wu Laojiu is very similar to Yang Chang'an in the past.

Same experience.

It's the same style.

But in their bones, Wu Laojiu and Yang Changan are completely two kinds of people.

Yang Chang'an, who was born in a family of eunuchs and scholars, only became a monk halfway because of his family's downfall, and abandoned literature and martial arts, but ended up with a man who could not write or do martial arts, and his eyes were low in master.

And Wu Laojiu, counting five generations from his ancestors, are all fishermen, he relied on a steel fork and a ruthless force, step by step to get to today, a real practitioner.

The very different origins, as well as the heights that the two of them have reached, determine their very different ways of dealing with the world.

Of course, both of them are people who are not willing to live under others.

The difference is that Yang Changan feels that he is great in his heart, and he feels that he is a character in his heart, so he will seize every opportunity to rebel, and he will rebel if he has no opportunity to create opportunities.

And who is Wu Laojiu?

Bastards, beasts, beasts, human dregs......

The scary thing is that he knows exactly what he is!

Once a person has self-knowledge, he will become an amazing person, even if he is a bastard, he will be an amazing bastard!

It is precisely because he is self-aware that he admires Zhang Chu very much.

Admire it from the bottom of your heart!

Because it only took Zhang Chu less than two years to do what he didn't do in most of his life!

It's a simple truth.

But useful!

Therefore, even if he was forced to join the Taiping Society at the beginning, as long as Zhang Chu does not die for a day, he will not rebel for a day!

Of course, the premise is that he can't be forced to die!

“...... You cook when you are ugly, set off at the wrong time, go to Chongxiang County, and sweep away the Jianghu forces, local tyrants and inferior gentry in Chongxiang County who are in collusion with Wan's Tiandaomen before dawn. ”

"If you can keep your hands, you will spare the lives of those old and weak women and children. “

"After you succeed, immediately lead the brothers to move in the direction of Ganyi County, you can properly cover up your tracks, and someone will provide you with news along the way!"

"Ganyi County?"

Wu Laojiu's heart turned, and he secretly said that the two five products of the Wan's Heavenly Sword Gate were still in Fu'an County, and Ganyi County should be safe.

Thinking of this, Wu Laojiu made up his mind, got up and waved his hands and said, "Subordinates receive orders!"
