Chapter 31: Ambush
"Is there a situation?"
Although they didn't understand why Chu Hongyu showed a sad look when she heard the two bird calls, everyone's mood still became heavy, and they tightened the blades in their hands, ready to attack at any time.
"Woohoo!"
After a few more miles, two arrows of different lengths rang out, which made the nerves of the entire caravan tense even more.
"Bandits robbing nearby?"
The others didn't understand the meaning of the arrow, but Xie Feng knew it very well, and immediately frowned.
"What to do, Commander."
Xie Feng asked Chu Hongyu.
It stands to reason that their task is to protect the caravan, and they should not cause any extraneous problems, but most of the bandits' actions are caused by them, and if they are ignored, the other party will only look down on them and become more arrogant.
"You lead the team to continue forward, and I'll take an elite team over to see what's going on."
Chu Hongyu thought about it for a moment and said decisively.
Soon, she picked ten captains who were outstanding in all aspects, and traveled lightly to the direction where the warning came.
"Chirp!"
After marching four or five miles, the whistle of scouts came from ahead.
As soon as the scout returned to the team, he immediately reported anxiously: "Commander, it is a mess of stones, they have robbed the first few villages, and they have also set fire to all the villages, and taken away dozens of women and children. ”
"What?"
Chu Hongyu's pretty face was frosty, and her eyes were full of cold light.
She is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, jealous and hateful, and her eyes can't hold sand, how can she be indifferent when she hears such a thing that has lost her nature.
"How many people are there, who are the leaders, and what kind of equipment are they all equipped with?"
Anger is angry, the formation can't be messed up, Chu Hongyu asked the scout coldly.
"Commander Hui, there are seventy or eighty people in the locks, most of them are low-grade soldiers, one-horned antelope horses......"
The scout said: "The leader is a bearded man, and he has the best equipment, riding a black-glazed clouded leopard and using a high-grade military spear. ”
"The bearded man should be one of the four beams of the rocky swing, the Tuotian Liang Horse Beard......"
Chu Hongyu's expression became a little suspicious.
The organizational structure of the rocks, under the three bandit leaders, has four beams and eight pillars, and the horse beard is the head of the four beams.
If it was one of the three bandit leaders, then she could safely and boldly kill it, but it was only one of the four beams, so she had to think deeply.
It is impossible for Ranshidang not to know about their organization of trade, and since they have come, they have come for the caravan.
If you meet one of the three bandit leaders, it means that the strength is on the bright side, and now like this, most of them still have a powerful backhand.
"Did you find anything else during your rounds?"
Chu Hongyu asked the scout.
The scout pondered for a long time before replying affirmatively: "No, we have carefully probed the wind, dust, birds, marks, smell, and color, and we can be sure that there are no other groups of men and horses nearby except this group of dreadlocks. ”
"That's good."
This scout's name was Lawson, and he was one of the most outstanding people in his entourage, and Chu Hongyu trusted his judgment.
What's more, she has hidden means, she can get a general idea of the situation in the vicinity, and she has no other discoveries.
Since there are only these people nearby, there is nothing to hesitate, no matter what the conspiracy of the rocky bandits is, she will lead the team to strike lightning and rescue the captive women and children.
"You continue to scout, the others come with me, we will use the meat cutting tactics to quickly devour these locks and rescue the women and children!"
Chu Hongyu gave an order and rushed out first.
Although she knew that there were still many unknown factors, and she could not guarantee 100% that there would be no traps laid by the other party nearby, she was confident that she and the ten captains would not be able to escape without a big victory.
"Chirp!"
After leading the team to rush out of Baizhang, Chu Hongyu took out a delicate carved horn whistle and chirped a few times.
"Chirp!"
Immediately, there were a few crisp bird cries from the zenith, and five small canary people flew around, all hovering above Chu Hongyu's head.
"This is the Spirit Bird ......"
Several captains were all surprised.
Although they had heard that Chu Hongyu's family's spiritual control technique was very powerful, and she could control birds and beasts, but their comrades had never known that she had been controlling these canaries for more than a month, and they couldn't help but marvel at the superb spirit control technique of her.
You must know that only if the spirit control technique is strong, can you control birds and beasts from a long distance, these green canaries are so far away and have been stocked, Chu Hongyu can still control them so easily, and the spirit control technique has definitely reached the level of perfection.
"Woohoo!"
Chu Hongyu used the horn whistle to issue a crisp command, and then stretched out his hand to point in the direction where the bandit appeared.
"Chirp!"
The five canaries chirped a few times, flapped their wings quickly, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
"Follow me!"
Others couldn't see the canaries at all, but Chu Hongyu had an unknown sense with them, waved his hand to his subordinates, and led the team to the northwest like a gale.
"Stop!"
Chu Hongyu led everyone through several ravines to a hill and hid behind a mess of rocks.
After hiding, she ordered: "Wait a minute, don't rush to save people, lightning attack, disrupt their formation and retreat, and use meat cutting tactics to repeatedly eat away at them......"
"If you have the chance, give priority to killing the horsebeard!"
"Yes, Commander!"
They had already run in well, and the ten captains immediately understood and all whispered their orders.
The so-called flesh-cutting battle is named after the metaphor of cutting flesh with a quick knife, which refers to the rapid attack of elite troops, and when the opponent does not have time to react, one blow will be hit, and after obtaining the results of the battle, they will immediately retreat with their whole body, and so on, until the opponent is defeated.
The tactics of cutting meat are generally used in battles with less battles, and the quality of the soldiers, the speed and endurance of the war horses are extremely high, and the team is also required to have iron-like discipline, not absolute elite soldiers, and they cannot be used at all, otherwise the meat cutting will not be successful, but will fall into a heavy encirclement and the whole army will be annihilated.
"Haha, I'm having fun now, I caught so many mothers-in-law who warm my feet at once."
A moment later, there was a cacophony as the group drew closer and closer, and finally they could hear each other's conversation.
"Ready!"
Chu Hongyu raised the Silver Moon Phoenix Feather Knife and asked everyone to prepare to attack.
"Gotta have it!"
"Let go of me, woo, I'm so hungry, I want to eat!"
"This eldest brother, please let go of my three sons, no matter what, you can't starve the children."
"Little rabbit, shut up Lao Tzu, and be careful that your grandfather Zhu takes out your little liver and drinks it!"
The sound of horses' hooves, accompanied by chaotic shouts and scolding, made Chu Hongyu's eyes even more awe-inspiring.
"Up!"
Finally, the other party came to the foot of the mountain, and Chu Hongyu waved the Silver Moon Phoenix Feather Knife, and took the lead in rushing out of the rocks and rushing towards the bottom of the mountain like lightning.
"There's an ambush, copy the guys, quick!"
It wasn't until Chu Hongyu led the team to rush down nearly ten zhang that the bandits reacted, grabbed their blades in a panic, and prepared to attack.
