It is unheard of that a three-eyed armored bear can be repelled by intimidation alone. The only explanation is that the three-eyed armored bear knew that he was invincible to Zhao Yuan, so he fled.

At this time, people suddenly realized.

No wonder they didn't encounter demonic beasts along the way, all because they were scared away by Zhao Yuan's fierce and invincible battle intent......

……

"Ahem...... I have dealt with them a lot, and I know that they bully the soft and are afraid of the hard...... Hehe......" Seeing everyone staring at him dumbfounded, Zhao Yuan was a little embarrassed.

"Boss, I obey you, from now on, I, Yuan Feng, will follow you" The mad Taoist looked at Zhao Yuan with a fanatical expression.

“…… I don't like men. ”

"Bah, I don't like men either. The mad Taoist priest looked disdainful.

"Ha Lu Ha ......"

"Haha......"

……

The people burst into laughter, and the tension was swept away.

At this time, people seemed to see the dawn of victory.

Zhao Yuan did not waste time, and after a short rest, he immediately marched in a hurry. Now, time is of the essence, and you must get to the rear of the Thorn Slave before Blackwater City falls.

At this time, the thorn slave, the master poured out of the nest, and it was the weakest time

During the march, a secret passage was discovered.

It is said that it is a secret road because this road is extremely hidden and deliberately camouflaged, if it is not for Yang Cheng to find out that there is horse manure, at most he just thinks that this is just a road for wild beasts to walk.

After careful observation, it was determined that this secret passage was the passage for the Thornnut cavalry to cross the Black Forest.

Everyone followed the secret passage towards the grassland, along the way, saw countless stinky horse bones and heavy human bones, and the discarded armor and weapons were countless, from the scars of those skeletons, it can be seen that they were all attacked and killed by demonic beasts, and it is obvious that the losses of the Thorn Nu people when they forced their way through the Black Forest were also extremely heavy.

Judging by the time when those skeletons stinked, as early as a month ago, the Thorn Slaves had already begun to penetrate deep into the Black Forest Dynasty.

In less than twenty kilometers, at least a hundred human skeletons have been found.

Judging by this distance, the death toll of the Assassins in order to cross the Black Forest is estimated to be more than 2,000.

A group of Great Qin Empires were surprised and secretly shocked.

If it weren't for Zhao Yuan, it would have been impossible to pass through this terrifying Black Forest unscathed.

On the evening of the third day, the people finally reached a fairy grove, which was littered with abandoned garbage and cooking utensils, and it was evident that this had once been the camp of the Thorn Slave cavalry, where they gathered and entered the Black Forest in groups.

The soldiers moved cautiously, and every movement was like walking on thin ice.

In the event that a large number of Assassins are entrenched here, and their identities are revealed, then they will lose all their efforts.

After careful reconnaissance, it was determined that there were no more enemies stationed in the woods.

Yang Cheng identified a direction, and after deciding it, taking advantage of the night, everyone advanced towards the prairie.

Yang Cheng was extremely familiar with the environment of the desert, and he knew that not far away, there was a small tribe.

The first thing they have to do now is to snatch the horses.

"Someone"

When the people were trudging through the grass, suddenly, there was a sound of horses' hooves behind them, and everyone hurriedly lay down and lurked in the grass, their bows and crossbows wound, ready to fight.

At this time, the position of the crowd is in the middle of the hill, and you can get a bird's-eye view of the back with a slight look up.

One.

Two.

Three.

……

Sixteen men in all, twenty-five horses.

Who are they?

Zhao Yuan watched the sixteen horses getting closer and closer, scouting with "Jing", he was a little puzzled about the identity of these people, because, among these people, there were actually three women and two teenage children.

"Prepare for battle, stay at the front. ”

"Yes"

"There were women and children in it. Zhao Yuan reminded in a low voice.

"I'll explain to you later. Yang Cheng's face was full of murder.

Zhao Yuan didn't say anything more, although he was the leader of this team, but it was because of his excellent personal combat effectiveness, which did not mean that he had excellent command ability. There is no doubt that in terms of leading troops to fight, both Yang Cheng and Lu Feng are more experienced than him.

Under the cover of darkness, people spread out in the grass, and according to the trajectory of each other's runs, a huge encirclement was arranged.

A hundred powerful crossbows shimmered in the grass with a dark metallic sheen, cold and bone-piercing.

The goal is getting closer.

People held their breath.

"Shoot"

Yang Cheng shouted violently, and the locust-like sharp arrows flew out of the lusk, densely packed.

There was no resistance, just a round of shooting, and fifteen of the sixteen were shot like hedgehogs, and fell straight from their horses, and the only one left seemed to be stunned, and actually sat on the horse at a loss.

Zhao Yuan was the first to move.

Zhao Yuan's movements were like lightning, and like a ghost in the dark, silent, and the moment the fifteen targets fell, Zhao Yuan had already swept up out of thin air, like an eagle, and swooped down on the person who was at a loss on the horse, and then rolled down to the grass together.

An old man with a wrinkled face.

A panicked old man.

The old man was dressed as a herdsman, trembling all over, not at all like a wolf-like stabbing slave soldier.

In the night, Zhao Yuan saw that the fifteen people who were shot into hedgehogs, old and young, were all dressed in herdsmen's clothes. Obviously, this was a family, and the people who were shot were all members of the family, and among them were two teenage children with several sharp arrows in their faces, their eyes wide open, and a look of fear that they were on the verge of death.

Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Zhao Yuan's heart tingled.

Yang Cheng and a few soldiers also rushed over, tied up the old man, and began to torture him.

"They're just herders. Zhao Yuan let out a long sigh.

"Will the herdsmen run around the prairie in the middle of the night?" Yang Cheng glanced at Zhao Yuan and said lightly.

"They cooperate with the Thorn Cavalry?" Zhao Yuan's body was shocked.

"Yes, you will know soon, Zhao Yuan, you have only been in the army for a short time, in order to carry out military tasks, it is inevitable that there will be a woman's kindness, you can avoid it for a while, and you will know for a while. ”

"Hmm. ”

Zhao Yuan glanced at the healthy horses that were full of supplies, and already understood what was going on, and walked up the hillside alone.

The mountain breeze blows.

Zhao Yuan stared at the deep darkness on the grassland, and under the hillside, there was a burst of screams and struggles, obviously, Yang Cheng was tortured the old man to ask for a confession.

What are you always soft-hearted for?

What is the wisdom of which I am proud to be deceived at this time?

These people appeared in the areas where the cavalry operated, obviously to provide them with logistical support, and they were only moved by mercy because the other party had women and children, and it seemed that they were really not suitable to be soldiers.

Soldiers, for the sake of victory, should be unscrupulous.

And Zhao Yuan, although he is also a little unscrupulous, but it is only for the strong, he never thought that one day he would raise a butcher's knife against defenseless women and children.

……

In a moment of thought, the screaming from below the hillside stopped, and after a while, a near-death scream was heard, and it was clear that the old man had also been executed.

"How?" Zhao Yuan looked at Yang Cheng with a hideous face.

"They have three secret passages, and not long ago they sent the last cavalry deep into the Black Forest, numbering five thousand. The old man was a large family, and they were loyal to Shan Yu, providing cover and logistics for this cavalry, because there were so many people, the old man gathered all the members of the family together to transport supplies for those cavalry. ”

"How many people did they go in total?" Zhao Yuan asked.

"The old man is just a peripheral person, I don't know the specific number of Lu Dao, however, judging by his oral statement, the total number of cavalry who entered the hinterland of Blackwater City through the secret passage of the Black Forest should have reached 30,000, and there were a large number of masters accompanying him, according to the old man, among them, eight of the ten warriors of the Thorn Slave went to the top, as well as the four great masters, and there were countless martial witches. ”

"It seems that Shan Yu has made a heavy bet on Blackwater City this time, and it is bound to win. ”

"Yes, we must disturb their rear, we must act quickly, without delay. ”

"Hmm. ”

"By the way, Zhao Yuan, war is cruel, in our eyes, there should be no women and children, only enemies and friends. If you see a teenager shooting our comrades in the back with a crossbow, there will be no mercy. Yang Cheng stared at Zhao Yuan.
