By dawn, the golden glow of the stars had already fallen on the old capital.

Under the golden sunlight, the old capital revealed a vague outline.

If you weren't in the dilapidated old capital, just looking at the outline, you would definitely mistake it for a highly developed city in the wake up.

It has been more than three hours, and for more than three hours, Chen Boyan and his subordinates have been busy, and they have found a street about a hundred meters long, this street is very narrow, with lush bushes growing in the middle, only a path stepped on by war horses, and most of the buildings on both sides have collapsed.

Chen Boyan carefully inspected the sides of the street, and found that there were places that were easy to climb, so he blocked them with something or piled up a large amount of dry firewood.

Throughout the night, Chen Boyan and his family collected dry firewood and piled it on both sides of the street, but fortunately, there was nothing else in this city that had been abandoned for 150 years, and dry firewood was readily available, as long as there were a large number of combustible daily necessities such as furniture in those well-preserved buildings......

……

At dawn, the fire trap of more than a hundred meters was completed.

The trap layout is very simple, that is, use dry firewood to pile a "U" shaped trap on the street like a pocket, prepare a large amount of dry firewood in advance in the lush bushes around the open entrance, and once the last person of the headhunter enters the pocket, immediately block the entrance with a large amount of dry firewood.

In order to prevent the headhunter cavalry from rushing out at high speed while the fire was not yet burning, Chen Boyan arranged for people to arrange a large number of obstacles and vines at the end and entrance, ensuring that even when the fire was not yet burning, the headhunters could not remove the obstacles and leave in a short time.

Chen Boyan arranged two people at the end of the trap to light the fire. Why two people? Because, once the headhunters find that the street is blocked, they will definitely want to remove the blocked obstacles and dry firewood as soon as possible, so two people must ignite the fire at the same time and not give the enemy time.

At the entrance, there were nine people.

The entrance is the most critical place, because once the headhunters find that the burning people in front of them can't pass through, they will definitely turn back immediately, and the time may be a few minutes, so Chen Boyan and the others have to block the open entrance within a few minutes and pile up dry firewood and light it.

Another person was in charge of watching the wind from a high point in a building, and used body language to convey messages to the ambushed sheep people.

Now, you're all set!

Chen Boyan led everyone to lurk at the entrance of the trap, looking at the vague figure on the roof of the building in the distance.

No movement!

Waiting is tormenting

As the minutes passed, a group of sheep people became anxious.

Now, the biggest fear is that the headhunters won't send pursuers.

If the headhunters didn't send pursuers, then Chen Boyan's preparations would be meaningless.

It's not just Chen Boyan who is anxious, but also Orin.

At dawn, Orin followed Zhou Sen to the top floor of the mall. The top floor of the mall offers a bird's-eye view of the entire street. Of course, Zhou Sen didn't know that Chen Boyan was setting the trap in that section, and he could only see it when the fire was burning.

Unlike Orin, who watched from time to time, Zhou Sen didn't look at the street at all, but refined gold in the hut on the roof. This time, Zhou Sen, who had experience, did not melt the gold bricks into solid and flashy gold beads, but melted them into pieces of gold leaves of about ten grams.

The advantage of gold leaf is that it appears bigger and more dazzling.

After melting the two gold bricks, Zhou Sen came out of the hut.

"Will the headhunter cavalry come?" Orin couldn't help but ask.

"Yes." Zhou Sen replied in the affirmative.

"What if they don't come?"

"No in case." Zhou Sen shook his head.

"Why are you so sure?" Orin couldn't understand Zhou Sen's self-confidence. As a journalist who has been in contact with countless big names, Orin is very disgusted with overconfident politicians, because they tend to become arrogant because of overconfidence, and end up being stubborn and unable to listen to advice.

In fact, when Zhou Sen said that he could build an industrial system alone, Orin subconsciously felt a little disgusted with Zhou Sen.

"If you were the military leader of the headhunters, and eleven cavalrymen were missing, would you be indifferent?"

"I ........."

"For the headhunters, the cavalry is the trump card to defeat the sheep clan, and the eleven cavalry is already a very powerful military force, so they will definitely find out." Zhou Sen looked at the decaying city at his feet, the city was already covered by forests, even on the top of the building, there were many towering trees, and they were now standing under a big tree on the top of the building.

"Well, when they're going to send someone to check, why does it have to be at dawn?" Orin didn't understand why Zhou Sen was sure it was dawn in the morning.

"The reason is very simple, it is dangerous at night, and the people of the headhunters are also afraid of being ambushed by the sheep people, so it is safer for them during the day. In other words, at dawn, the headhunters can't wait to send people out to follow and check. ”

"......" Orin thought for a moment and didn't speak, she wanted to question.

"Ten minutes at most, and the headhunter will appear." Zhou Sen glanced up at the increasingly bright sky.

"Why are you so sure?"

"You want to know why?"

"Yes."

"Okay, fulfill your promise in prison, and let me give you a hug." Zhou Sen laughed.

"You weren't like that before." Orin frowned. In her impression, Zhou Sen was a righteous gentleman who was not close to women, even if Qin Ge's big beauty was in front of him, he could ignore it.

"After three years as a soldier, the sow became a sable." Zhou Sen shrugged his shoulders and smiled.

"Are you scolding me sow?" Orin had a look of displeasure on her face, and although she was confident in her appearance, she didn't like to be belittled.

"To make an analogy,......" Zhou Sen laughed awkwardly.

"Let's make a bet." Orin gritted her teeth.

"Say."

"If the Headhunter cavalry appears in ten minutes, I'll ...... I'll finish the original permission for you to hug me in prison, if you don't show up, in the future, you will respect me, and you can't be as rude as you were just now. Orin said with a serious face.

"I hate the way you look serious." Zhou Sen frowned.

"Will you say yes?" Orin asked.

"Promise."

"Okay, it's a deal!"

"A word is a ......"

Before Orin could finish speaking, suddenly, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

That's right, it's the sound of horses' hooves.

The expression on Orin's face suddenly petrified, it was incredible.

Zhou Sen glanced downstairs, and then looked at Orin for a long time.

"I lost. How do you calculate the exact time? The expression on Orin's face was mixed, with surprise, frustration, and a wry smile.

Zhou Sen didn't answer Orin, smiled and glanced at the street in the distance.

"Come on, I'll fulfill my promise!"

Orin closed her eyes, and her fair face showed a shy red, which reflected the morning glow.
