Du Ruoli ran on short legs, and when he ran to the mouth of the cave, Lu Jizhou had already asked Ji Tong for command.

Ji Tong was a leader, leading a hundred soldiers and more than a thousand prisoners. Not to mention the high power, it is also relatively noble. He obediently handed over the command, and he didn't know what Gu Lu Jizhou had given him?

Lu Jizhou's method is actually very simple, that is, to find a foolproof hiding place for Ji Tong: a hollow tomb.

The grave is not really a grave, there are no people buried in it. The builders probably prepared for the escape of their descendants, and built four underground palaces in the southeast, northwest, and northwest.

Except for a coffin in the North Palace, where a stone figure lay in the coffin. The remaining three underground palaces are all empty and can accommodate more than 100 people.

Lu Jizhou understands the art of mechanisms, and he can see the mechanisms on the tombstone during the day. When I opened it, I found the secret inside.

Secrets that didn't think too much about it at the time came in handy at this time.

When Ji Tong heard that there was a place to hide, he immediately became a little moved. When Lu Jizhou went to the grave to take a look, he didn't leave directly, handed over the command flag to him, and let him have full command.

Ji Tong's heart is like a mirror child, less against more, weak against strong, outsiders against locals, this is a battle that cannot be won, and there is no meaning of persistence.

He was worried about dragging his crippled body, how to escape his life. God helped him and asked Lu Jizhou to send him to the door and tell him where the underground palace was.

The underground palace has a vent to the outside, so you can stay inside without suffocation, and you don't have to worry about your life. Press the mechanism from the inside, and no one from the outside will want to come in, it is absolutely safe.

Stay inside for two or three days, and when everything outside has subsided, his injuries should be almost healed, and then go out quietly and escape back to Qingyun County. Report to the above that the team was attacked by bandits, and the above verified that he would not punish him, and he continued to be his escort leader, enjoying glory and wealth, and a beautiful wife and concubine, how perfect.

Lu Jizhou didn't care how loud his abacus rang, took the command flag, and quickly returned to the cave.

Time is running out, big things matter.

The servants at the entrance of the cave already had some guesses when Lu Jizhou left with Leader Ji. At this time, when he saw the command flag in his hand, he was not surprised, but had some expectations.

I hope that he will lead them to fight a battle with fewer victories like he did last time against wild boars, and not let them lose their lives in vain.

The rest of the prisoners, like the servants, looked at Lu Jizhou with burning eyes, hoping that he would lead them to perform a miracle.

Lu Jizhou just nodded his head slightly, brushed a few times, and drew a map of the vicinity on the ground with a tree branch, facing the map, and gave instructions to the errand officer and the prisoner respectively.

Those who received the order acted quickly and orderly.

The task of the young and strong women of the Du family is to pick up stones, pick them up and send them to the men who occupy high places and act as trebuchets, and throw them at the path that the bandits must pass.

Du Ruoli was about to walk with them, but was stopped by Lu Jizhou: "Miss Du Ruoli, please stay, there is something to ask for in the future." ”

Du Ruoli thought that she was sending her a task alone, and retreated to stand in front of the map, her eyes looking at the branch that he was acting as a baton: "What is the task, please say!" ”

"Non-tasking." Lu Jizhou said: "I want to borrow the girl's aconitum powder for use, I don't know if it's convenient?" ”

"Give, it's been redeemed, take it and use it directly." Du Ruo took out a porcelain bottle and handed it over.

If you have more debts, you won't worry, and if you have more lice, you won't itch. He knew several of her secrets, not much of Aconitum officinalis.

"Thank you!"

Lu Jizhou took the porcelain vase, turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he stopped and said, "Good life to pick up stones." ”

The implication is not to take risks and protect yourself. Du Ruoli felt a trace of warmth in her heart, and nodded lightly: "Well, remember." ”

Lu Jizhou did not stay anymore and strode away.

Du Ruoli returned to the team and picked up stones with everyone.

In this battle, the main focus is on a surprise. All the squads were not allowed to light torches, and the lighting relied on a few burning charcoals.

The faint charcoal flame did not affect the speed at which the Lady Army picked up stones. A pair of working hands, desperately grasping on the ground. Grab a stone and quickly put it in the basket, then grab the next one.

It's as if one more stone is one more chance of survival.

Du Ruoli's task is to transport stones. Seeing whose basket was full, he hurriedly went up to pick it up, trotted all the way, and sent it to the man above.

Basket by basket is too inefficient. She scurried around, collecting a basket in the east and a basket in the west, putting it into the space, and only sending it once after a certain amount.

It is also weightless when it is delivered, and the bottom of the basket is stuffed with filling, and only a few stones are placed on the top to make a look.

After several operations, the delivery efficiency has been greatly improved.

Everyone is too busy to take care of themselves, and no one notices cheating, but feels that there is excess capacity. Originally, there were eight people on the transport mission, but four of them quickly changed careers and joined the team to collect stones.

There were more and more stones, and Du Ruoli collected a pile of stones again and sent them to her uncle and brother.

The location of the uncle and brother is in a stone forest. In the stone forest, there are only large stones that people put high, and there are no small stones. The terrain is higher than the surrounding area, and bandits can attack from any direction.

There is also a stone forest as a cover, which can be described as unique, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Lu Jizhou gave this good place to the people surnamed Du, and the trust in it is self-evident.

When Du Ruoli arrived at the stone forest, she saw the men who were shouldering heavy responsibilities, lying honestly behind the stones, concentrating on every move in front of them, and felt a little relieved. Silently divide the stones in the space and place them in a convenient position.

Their whole clan is preparing in an orderly manner, and so is Lu Jizhou.

Find the seriously wounded and take the bow and arrows and the saber, and coat the saber and arrow cluster with aconitum juice.

Du Ruoli was more generous than he thought, and gave the slap a large bottle of aconitum juice, and after he applied twenty arrow clusters and the entire blade, there was still half a bottle left.

The remaining half bottle was put away temporarily, Lu Jizhou carried the weapon on his back, and after checking everywhere, he went up the mountain alone.

After walking half a stick of incense, he jumped to a tree and watched the bandit team pass in front of him.

About the same as he had previously estimated, the bandit team totaled 202 people, including 20 archers and 2 standard-bearers. There were 180 people left, all of whom were armed. Swords, guns, swords, halberds, all sorts.

The leader is strong and strong, with iron chains around his waist, and he is a practitioner who is not weak in kung fu.

The strength of the team is strong, and it seems that it is inevitable!

Lu Jizhou didn't want to startle the snakes, let the bandits know that they were prepared, held their breath, and waited for them to pass through one by one.

"Wait!"

The big leader seemed to suddenly feel something, waved his hand to stop the team, and looked in the direction where Lu Jizhou was: "Go up and have a look." ”
