Chapter 778 Battle of Nanhu County 9

When Shun Jun left in front of Sun Kai, their outcome was already doomed.

They didn't even find Sun Kai, let alone Shi Kuan to the west of Wohu Gang.

Shi Kuan arranged not many people, only a hundred people, on the way to Wohugang when he was laid off. This was also the focus of Shunjun's investigation. Too many people would increase the risk of exposure.

These one hundred people are the most elite warriors of Shi Kuan's tribe. Each one wears two layers of armor. The armor of the Shenwu Guards is very strong. Two layers are enough. Any more will affect the actions of the soldiers.

Every three of these hundred Shenwu Guardsmen hide in a hole more than two meters deep, covered with a layer of two-inch-thick wooden boards and five-inch-thick earth and stone. Even if the soldiers step on it, they will not easily notice anything abnormal under their feet. .

The Shunjun's search was still more careful. Just as their captain did not expect that Shi Kuan would take action against them, he still asked them to come out to clear the road. Although these Shunjun did not think that there would be an ambush here, they still carried out the search for the enemy very seriously. Road clearing mission.

The soldiers cut down all the grass and bushes on both sides of the road where they went up and down, even though they didn't seem to be enough for people to hide.

After clearing the weeds and bushes beside the road, the gunmen behind them stabbed the ground with their long rifles.

It seems that they also know that the enemy not only comes from the ground, but also cannot be ignored underground.

However, the force they thrust into the ground was not strong enough to penetrate the five-inch thick coating. Therefore, all the 100 soldiers arranged by Shi Kuan at the intersection of Xiangang Road to the west of Wohu Gang safely escaped the search of the Shun army.

The Shun army searched Wohu Gang for half an hour before concluding the cleanup operation.

Colonel Zhu and Xu were very satisfied with the cleanup. Captain Zhu said: "It's almost noon, and the sun on the post is too strong. Let's take a rest off the post now and go up again after lunch!"

The few junior officers behind Captain Zhu looked at the sun in the sky that was still slowly moving directly overhead in the east, and they didn't know how to react to Captain Zhu's words.

They walked less than ten miles from Wohu Town, and then spent half an hour clearing the road up and down Wohu Hill, and then...

rest!

Great, they loved it.

The soldiers enjoyed another delicious meal at the foot of Wohu Post. In order to allow them to stay longer, Wohu Town spent a lot of money.

It's just that Zhu and Xu have military orders, so they can't just stay in Wohu Town, so they can only repay the big families in Wolong Town by slowing down their marching speed.

"I've been thinking about it for the past two days. Wolong Town is so sincere. We can't help but show it. If we go slowly, we can return in time even if Wohu Town is really attacked."

This is the final result negotiated by Zhu and Xu.

Although they don't think that the Ganjun will come out from the south road, it is still very possible that a small group of Ganjun will come. After all, it is just to attack a town, and a few hundred troops are completely enough.

If Ganjun had taken a little more risk, he could have controlled Crouching Tiger Town with a hundred troops.

It's just that this is not very stable. There is a militia of a hundred people in the town, and several large households also have many servants and guards. If they cannot be controlled as soon as they enter the town, it will cause huge hidden dangers to the army occupying the town.

This was what the two captains Zhu and Xu speculated based on the Shun Army. The situation would definitely be better if it was replaced by the Qian Army.

Of course, they did not intend to be kidnapped by Crouching Tiger Town. Even if their marching speed was slow in two days, they would still be quite far away from Crouching Tiger Town. By then, they could speed up their march and head to the next town.

The products of Huqiu Hills are very rich, otherwise it would not be able to support hundreds of thousands of people and more than a dozen wealthy towns within the hills.

So no matter which side of the army was pushing towards Huqiu Mountain, they were protecting the town on the way, and at the same time enjoying the various preferential treatment given to them by the town.

If they can eliminate Shi Kuanbu, then this operation should be their most comfortable battle!

But based on the premise, this result will not occur.

Because they cannot win this battle.

In the afternoon, after being well fed, drunk and well rested, Shun Jun of the South Road finally set off again.

"The march will be faster if we go down. No matter what, we must pass Wohu Gang before slowing down the march."

After Captain Zhu finished speaking, Captain Xu suddenly said: "Should we send people to guard Wohu Gang tonight and let them catch up tomorrow?"

Captain Xu was worried about Ganjun's small force.

Allowing the small force of Ganjun to pass through the hills may cause considerable losses to the small towns in the rear.

At that time, the blame for these crimes will still be placed on them, the captains.

After listening to Captain Xu's words, Colonel Zhu thought for a moment, and then replied: "If the Qianjun army really divides its troops to the South Road, it will be useless if there are too few people left behind. If there are too many people left behind, we will be in danger." , why not go together, if there is really an army around, we can come back again!"

"As long as you go faster, you can come back in time!"

Seeing Captain Zhu's meaningful expression, Captain Xu understood what he meant.

Although Crouching Tiger Town is very enthusiastic towards them, both of them know what their strengths are.

Don't be blinded by money. If you have a life, you will have a life to spend.

The prerequisite for protecting anyone is to protect yourself first!

The 2,400 compliant soldiers were roughly divided into two waves, one thousand in front and one thousand fourteen in back, and they successively boarded Wohu Gang.

coming! coming!

No matter where the ganjun is, anyone who can see the shunjun in action is very excited.

The fight is finally about to begin!

They had been hiding underground for most of the day, and even the most elite Shenwu Guard soldiers were feeling impatient.

Wohu Gang is not too high, but it took nearly half an hour for more than two thousand soldiers to completely climb onto Wohu Gang.

Lieutenant Zhu: "This Crouching Tiger Hill has a great reputation. It is just a small hill when you climb it! Could it be that there were really tigers lying on the hillock before?"

"There must be some. Tigers have been sleeping in the Huangqiu since ancient times. There used to be many tigers in the Tiger Hill, and there must be tigers in the Crouching Tiger Hill as well."

This is the news Captain Xu learned from the hunters in Crouching Tiger Town.

Now the old hunter has become a follower of a wealthy family.

Zhu and Xu admired the scenery on Wohu Hill, but there was nothing interesting to see. There were not many trees on the hill, and there were no strange rocks or scenery.

I don’t know how the tiger fell in love with this place and chose this place as its nest.

More than two thousand soldiers arrived at Wohu Gang without stopping at all. It was best not to stay in a place like this where there was only one access road from front to back.

If there was another way to Huqiu Mountain, the two of them would definitely not take Wohu Gang.

There is no problem for ordinary people to go here, but it is a bit risky for the army to go here.

"You have to be careful when marching in your own country. It makes me feel aggrieved just thinking about it!"

"You have to endure the grievances. Those dry dogs are very strong. We can only fight them back slowly!"

"I don't know why they have so many elites. Is it possible that they are supported by other countries?"

"I don't know, I haven't heard any rumors about this."

Only the soldiers at the front and the back were still a little vigilant, while the soldiers in the middle had already started chatting.

There are not many armies that can march silently, definitely not including this army along the southern route.

"kill!"

...

A sudden sound of fighting interrupted the communication between the soldiers of the Shun Army and blocked their way down to Wohu Gang.

"Lord Captain, there are enemies blocking the way ahead!"

Zhu and Xu had exactly the same first reaction after hearing the news.

"Immediately check the road behind you for any enemies?"
