Chapter 75: ambush

,.

Qingshan County, Langya Ridge, has high mountains and dense forests. The mountains stand like large and small awls, which is quite strange.

Deep in the mountains, Xiang Wuren, the fourth-grade valiant cavalry guerrilla general of Nanzhou who arrived secretly with his troops, accompanied Yan Duo in the mountains to understand the situation.

Standing on the hillside shaded by trees, looking at the people lying or sitting under the shade of the trees, everyone had changed out of the imperial court's standard military uniforms and put on colorful attire. If it weren't for the weapons beside them, It doesn't look like they are a team. One by one, they held the mixed flour pancakes and ate them, not daring to make a fire or smoke.

"There was originally a group of bandits in Langya Ridge. They were called Langya bandits. They were wiped out by me and my troops yesterday. When the target comes, we will raise the flag of Langya bandits and pretend to be bandits to attack." Xiang Wuren pointed out. The subordinate in miscellaneous clothes explained.

Yan Duo sneered: "Tens of thousands of horses and thousands of cavalry dare to attack a regular army. Even if I don't understand military affairs, I know that someone is pretending."

Xiang Wuren shook his head: "It's not important. As long as you make a move, the other party should be able to guess it. It's just an excuse. If it doesn't work, I will admit that I have colluded with the bandits. The people below are following orders without knowing the real situation. ." He stretched out his hand again and invited him to look on the other side.

After crossing a hillside, there was an official road opened in the high mountains. He pointed to Wu Ren and said: "This is the only way to enter Canglu County. As soon as the target troops arrive, I will immediately attack from both sides and surround them. They, as for the matter of taking the heads of targets in the rebel army, it is up to you, the mage."

Yan Duo observed the terrain and nodded slightly.

The two of them descended the hillside, crossed the official road, and then went up the opposite hillside. Soon after going deep into the forest, they came to the men and horses lurking on the other side.

Yan Duo waved his hand to Xiang Wuren to do his work, and he arrived at the foot of a mountain. There were dozens of monks standing or sitting here, none of them looked good, and some of them were holding tokens to threaten them. Yan Duo sighed softly. .

After hiding in the mountains and waiting for a long time, as evening approached, the people and horses in the ambush became restless and got up one after another.

Yan Duo and others who were sitting cross-legged and meditating at the foot of the mountain were also alerted. Yan Duo dodged and floated to Xiang Wu Ren's side. Without waiting for him to ask, Xiang Wu Ren had already nodded and said: "Frontier spies reported that the target should be here. The Master is still here." Please get ready."

Yan Duo immediately turned around and summoned a group of monks to prepare...

The wilderness was desolate, the farmland was barren, and there were bones on the road. Thousands of people walked slowly and slowly. The four thousand infantry assigned by Fengruojie to her sister were already in place.

Sitting on horseback, Niu Youdao looked around from time to time. Since entering Qingshan County, what he has seen and heard is obviously a lot worse than that of Guangxi County. The sight of people is full of poverty. Occasionally, he can see people lying on the road and smelling bad. No one cares about the corpses, and the clean white bones that have been chewed by something are not a rare thing.

From this it can be seen that the ability of the county guard here is more than a little inferior to Feng Lingbo. It is no wonder that Feng Lingbo has sufficient manpower and dares to resist the imperial court. In order to survive, the people here have to try their best to escape to Guangxi County. .

Lan Ruoting, who was also on horseback, took out a map from time to time and looked at it. He suddenly turned his head and said something to Shang Chaozong. Shang Chaozong looked at the peaks towering at the end of the wilderness in front of him, raised his hand and shouted: "Stop!" At the same time, he also made a gesture to Feng Ruonan to stop marching.

Feng Ruonan waved his hand to stop the march of the people. When Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting approached, he said indifferently: "What's the matter?"

Lan Ruoting pointed to the mountain at the end in front, "Princess, the mountain ahead is called Langya Ridge. The terrain is dangerous and it is the only way to Canglu County. If someone wants to do harm to us, this is the best place." The place to start!"

Feng Ruonan looked around and said calmly: "No one but the imperial court can ambush thousands of troops here. Do you think the imperial court dares? The spies back and forth didn't find any clues. What do you think?"

Lan Ruoting smiled and said: "Princess, you'd better be careful." He looked at Bai Yao aside, "It would be best if we could send a few mages who can go high and low to investigate and confirm!"

"Hmph!" Feng Ruonan snorted disdainfully. In fact, she didn't think there was any harm in being careful. She just didn't like people from the Shang Chaozong telling her what to do. She pointed at Niu Youdao, "Don't you have a mage around you? Let me Your mage has gone to investigate."

Niu Youdao looked back, immediately clenched a fist and beat his lower back, and said, "I've been riding for a long time, when can I rest? My waist is almost broken from exhaustion!"

Feng Ruonan gave him a look of disdain, "You are a cowardless and despicable person!"

Since the other party made this request, Bai Yao didn't think it was a bad thing to play it safe. He turned around and said to the Tianyu Sect disciples behind him: "You guys go and take a look."

Immediately, four Tianyumen disciples flew out of the sky, and they were almost a hundred feet away.

This bounce distance is two to three hundred meters away. To Yuan Gang, it is a bit unscientific. There is a slight envy in his eyes, but it is not incomprehensible.

On the way, Niu Youdao explained to him the secret. This is just ejecting and gliding by using the speed of fire. That is, the energy is released into a wing shape and glides with the help of air buoyancy. Yuan Gang can't see the air wings, but if a monk like Niu Youdao is lucky, he can see the wingspan of the flying monk. The wingspan of this kind of energetic wings has a faint color, and with another The color that exists in this form of energy is like needing to wear a filter to see it. The reason for this is related to the so-called dark matter that Niu Youdao once explained to him, which is invisible to ordinary people. For example, ordinary people cannot see ghosts, but Niu Youdao can see them if he has good luck with his eyes. This is the so-called Dharma Eye.

And those who can plunder such a distance at once must have reached the foundation building stage. Those in the Golden Core stage can glide a little further, but that's because the higher the cultivation level, the stronger the ejection force. However, when it's time to land, you still have to land. There is no way, you can just jump so high, and there is no blessing. It is impossible to glide indefinitely without continuous power. When landing, you have to find a borrowing point again to generate the gliding force for ejection again.

However, if you stand on a high mountain and jump down, you can glide very far. However, the gap between the foundation stage and the golden elixir stage is not small. Air resistance cannot be ignored. The strength of the air does not mean that the physical wings do not have enough density and density. Mass, when gliding at high altitudes, the air resistance and airfoil friction at high speed, the loss of external air force is actually very large. In the process of rapid passage, the mana consumption is also fast. Over time, even the monks in the foundation building period can't bear it.

Relatively speaking, the cultivation level of the Golden Core Stage is deeper and more powerful than that of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the mana can be consumed for a longer period of time. At the same time, the density and intensity of Qi Jin are not comparable to those of the Foundation Establishment Stage, and the friction loss when gliding at high speed is naturally smaller. , the sustained sliding time and distance are comparable to those during the non-base building period.

Despite this, in the eyes of uninformed ordinary people who are not monks, whether it is the foundation building stage or the golden elixir stage, there is no difference between flying and flying in that situation. It is enough to shock ordinary people and treat them as if they are immortals flying into the sky and escaping from the earth.

If your cultivation has reached a higher realm, the Nascent Soul stage, it is another matter. The so-called Nascent Soul stage originally means rebirth or rebirth. Your cultivation has reached a state where you can transcend the physical body, and your energy can be free. When performing within the space of heaven and earth, the problems faced by the Golden Elixir Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage have been overcome by the Nascent Soul Stage. For example, the friction loss of air wings and the power propulsion problem in the air are not problems. That level can be said to be true flight. , can fly freely between heaven and earth. To ordinary people, it is truly a god-like existence!

Niu Youdao's current cultivation level is not as good as the people he saw in front of him, and naturally he cannot fly so far, but it is still no problem to easily jump up and down for tens of meters. Using the tension of the water surface to play on the waves will amaze ordinary people. It's okay to be a deity, you can show off your stinking.

Soon, the monks from Tianyu Sect disappeared into the mountains in front of them.

The people here watched it disappear, but the people hiding in the mountains witnessed it.

"Not good!" Xiang Wuren complained.

Yan Duo, who was hiding in the cover of thorns, turned his head and looked at the Qiaoqi guerrilla general beside him, "The other party wants to conduct an in-depth investigation. There are so many people gathered here, I'm afraid they won't be able to hide!"

Xiang Wuren clenched his fists with both hands. He was afraid that the ambush plan had been ruined. He couldn't help but gritted his teeth and cursed, "Haven't the spies who explored the path already explored the path several times? Why do we need to send a mage to investigate again? You are so careful!" In order to prevent being discovered by spies, he had always hidden his troops deep in the mountains. Even now, he did not dare to get too close to the roadside. He was always careful.

Seeing the four monks branching out in four directions to investigate the mountains, Xiang Wuren still had a glimmer of hope and turned around and ordered: "Let everyone hide!"

The person next to him quickly made a hidden gesture to the back, and there was a commotion among the people behind him, looking for a place to hide.

After a while, the person who came to investigate was already flying over the woods, looking down and looking around. He just noticed that there were birds flying here. After taking a closer look, he clearly noticed that people had waded through the grass, trees and thorns. Traces, it is impossible for so many people to temporarily drill without leaving traces. If you follow some of the traces, you will immediately find some hidden personnel.

With a swish, the attacker drew his sword in his hand and suddenly issued a warning, "Be careful, there is an ambush, retreat!"

Some of the other three people who came with them also noticed the abnormality and quickly flew back after hearing the sound.

The four mage spies quickly drifted away, and Yan Duo and others slowly walked out of their hiding place. Yan Duo turned his head and looked at the general, "We have been discovered. We have already alerted the snake. An ambush is impossible. We can't trap the opponent." It is unlikely that we will catch up with the target again, so we should retreat! The other party was too careful. Please explain the reason for the failure to Zhou Mu." He was worried that he could not find an excuse to stop.

"How do you know that the other party will definitely run away? I'm afraid that people like Feng Ruonan may not be willing to run away. Maybe there is still a chance!" Xiang Wuren gritted his teeth, turned around and shouted: "Send the order, people and horses assemble and attack!"
