Chapter 114: Ambush (3rd Watch)
Brother Zhu, is the information you investigating accurate? Is there really a coyote demon clan coming to inspect this place?"
It was Liu Changsong who was questioning, and he was leading a team of men and horses at this time, hiding in a hidden river bay area with Zhu Youdao, preparing to ambush a demon clan.
The war has been fought for more than ten years, and it has reached the later stage, in addition to the demon clan will attack the defense line of the human clan monks from time to time, the human monks occasionally go out to find a small group of demon clan troops by the river and take the initiative to attack.
Therefore, the defenders of each front will send their monks out to reconnoiter the movements of the demon clan.
Going out to scout is the task with the highest mortality rate, and many monks are reluctant to take on such a figure.
On other fronts, the defenders were forced to order their subordinates to carry out this task.
But Liu Changsong is not the Zhou family after all, and the deterrent effect is weaker, he can't force the assignment, so he ordered the people under his command to take turns to go out to investigate according to the family, and the order must not be violated!
Everyone had to take on the task, and no one dared to disobey, so this routine was carried out.
Under normal circumstances, people who go out to investigate will not go too far, and after leaving the defense line, they will casually patrol the neighborhood for a week, and then find a place to hide, and report casually when they go back.
During this time, it was the turn of the Zhu family to investigate, and Zhu Youdao personally went out to undertake this task.
He went out to reconnoiter for a few days, and when he came back, he told Liu Changsong that he found a small demon clan team with a fixed patrol route, and there was no other demon clan team near a section of the route, which was the best opportunity for an ambush.
After Liu Changsong asked about the situation carefully, he was moved at that time, he was the son-in-law of the Zhou family, and his status within the Zhou family was not high, and if he wanted to get further training, he had to save enough merits.
In the past ten years, Liu Changsong has served as a local guard on the battlefield, and has accumulated a lot of meritorious deeds, but he is still a little short of being able to raise his status in the Zhou clan one step further, so meritorious service is particularly important to him.
But now the frequency and scale of the demon clan's attacks are far less than before, and it is much slower than before to make meritorious achievements.
He thought about it, and the only chance was to take the initiative!
Therefore, when Zhu Youdao reported his discovery, Liu Changsong thought carefully for a long time, and then sent a spirit talisman to discuss with Zhou Ziping, thinking that this was an opportunity to make meritorious contributions, so through Zhou Ziping, he seconded a few foundation building masters from the family, and then led the elite under his command, followed Zhu Youdao to quietly go out of the defense line and came here to ambush!
But waiting left and right, waiting for a long time, there was no coyote demon clan that Zhu Youdao said, so he couldn't help but be anxious, so he quietly spread the news and went to ask Zhu Youdao.
Zhu Youdao also said: "Brother Liu, don't worry, I have been investigating here for several days, and every time there is a coyote demon clan passing by here at noon, and now it is still half an hour before noon!"
After Liu Changsong heard this, he relaxed a little and continued to lie in the hidden magic circle in the river bay, waiting patiently.
Zhu Youdao is not in a hurry, his news comes from within the demon clan, which is naturally accurate.
Moreover, because this coyote demon is greedy by nature, it can't eat a piece with other demon clans, and there is no big backer behind it, so there will be no timely support from other demon clans, which is a good target to start!
After more than half an hour, the sound of a coyote roaring could be heard in the distance.
Because they were afraid of startling the snakes, everyone didn't dare to check with their divine senses, and they all hid in the secret magic circle, not daring to make a sound.
After a while, I saw a team of more than thirty coyotes patrolling from a distance.
The coyote demon led by him is already the peak of the second order, and when he survives the heavenly tribulation, he will be a third-order demon.
In its ranks, there were also five or six second-order coyote demons, as well as more than twenty first-order demons.
After Liu Changsong saw it, he was secretly happy in his heart, these demon clans were just in line with the situation detected by Zhu Youdao, and it was more than enough for the people and horses he brought to take them down!
He hid in the circle and began to assign tasks to everyone.
When the patrol team of the demon clan walked into the arranged magic circle, the leader of the coyote demon had already sensed the danger, and it suddenly roared, and the subordinates behind it began to enter a state of alert.
Liu Changsong immediately made a decision and gave an order: "Do it!"
Then he took the lead and rushed out.
The main force of the battle was the five monks in the late stage of foundation building that he invited through his brother-in-law Zhou Ziping, and the others were just assisting in containment.
Zhu Youdao asked Zhu Youcai and other monks to use a magic circle to surround the battle circle to prevent them from escaping.
He himself picked a slightly weaker second-order coyote demon and rushed up to fight desperately.
Zhu Youdao has been building the foundation for more than 30 years, and now he has also built a five-layer foundation.
With his true means, as long as the Qiushui Sword came out, he could kill this coyote demon on the spot.
Or use the Sanyang Divine Thunder, and you can kill this demon in a few clicks.
But in order to keep a low profile, he fought with this demon back and forth for dozens of rounds, until everyone else solved the opponent and came to support him, and then killed this demon.
Looking at Zhu Youdao, who was tired and out of breath, everyone else secretly despised it in their hearts.
Only Liu Changsong came over to praise him, because the battle went smoothly because Zhu Youdao's intelligence was accurate, and he was the biggest hero.
This was a perfect ambush, Liu Changsong wiped out all the demon patrol team without losing a single person, which made him receive a lot of meritorious rewards.
With his example, the guards on the nearby battle lines were extremely angry, and they sent scouts one after another to ambush the small groups of demon clans.
Zhu Youdao secretly thought in his heart, if this fire burns, the demon clan will inevitably retaliate, and when the time comes, a group of soldiers and horses will suddenly appear and raid the Huang family's station, which is reasonable!
......
When Zhu Youdao received the letter from Li Yunniang, it was already a month later.
"My little aunt actually went to the Fengzhou battlefield, it's really ......"
Zhu Youdao didn't know what to say about Zhu Gangyu and Li Feihan, how to say it, although the two of them were doing the right thing and making rapid progress, but the luck component was also very large.
When Li Feihan and Zhu Gangyu left Langya Mountain, they had only practiced Qi at the fourth or fifth level, and they were not even considered scum in the cultivation realm.
Such a cultivator dares to go to the battlefield and not die as cannon fodder, this is not luck!
Of course, in addition to luck, the two of them dare to work hard and are willing to work hard, which is also the key to today's achievements.
In any case, it is a great thing for the little aunt to build a foundation with her own skills.
"I have to pass this on to my grandfather and father so that I can be happy!"
Zhu Yuanchang gave birth to many children, only Zhu Ganglie and Zhu Gangyu have spiritual roots.
Zhu Gangyu has been missing all these years, but the old man is not less worried about her.
In the spirit talisman passed home, Zhu Youdao only said that he had found Zhu Gangyu, she was very good now, and had built a foundation, but he did not say that she was on the battlefield in Fengzhou, so as not to make the old man even more worried.
