Chapter 617 (1/2)

The dark night is not as bright as the stars in the sky.

In the silent mountains, birds and animals inhabit the depths of the mountains, or stand on the branches of trees to nap, or are in the withered vegetation, struggling to feed.

Li Hong and their carriage on the side of the road are being quietly surrounded by several men in black. With a low drink, ”shoot.”

In the dark air, the arrow burst into the air, whizzing and banging. The arrows either shot into the carriage through the curtain or on the carriage.

The air froze again in an instant. Several black figures with bows and crossbows began to approach the carriage nervously and carefully. One of them quickly lifted the curtain of the carriage. Other people immediately shot again, but there was still no sound in the carriage.

”My Lord, it seems that the carriage was only left here.” A man in Black said in a low voice.

”It seems that they found the flaw, but where did it come from?” The so-called ”grown-up” pondering way is just a puzzle in my mind. If the plan is detailed enough, how can there still be flaws.

”What now? They left the carriage here and apparently fled to the mountains. ” The man in black looked at the night when he could not see his fingers. His eyes were black. He could only vaguely see that the adult beard in his mouth was white and fuzzy.

”This is a rare opportunity. Even if they enter the mountain early, they are not familiar with the terrain here. We must find them before dawn, otherwise it will be more difficult to encircle them in the mountains at daybreak.” There was some regret and anxiety in the adult's voice.

After that, he began to lead the man in black behind him, carefully walking on the rugged mountain path, relying on the feeling of his feet and the hazy sight after adapting to the dark night, he began to explore carefully ahead.

Wei Tu Qi felt a shadow of a man or a ghost in front of him. The crossbow in his hand was aimed at the other side. At the same time, he murmured: ”who?”

”My Lord, they are coming this way.” The figure said in a hurry.

At this time, I didn't dare to be careless. It was too dark to see clearly, so I could only answer immediately. I was afraid that the crossbow would be mercilessly shot at night.

”Keep an eye on it. I'll tell your highness.” Wei Tu Qi, on guard, went to the figure. After confirming the identity of the visitor, he put down his bow and crossbow, patted the man on the shoulder with approval, and then walked towards the direction behind him.

At the camp, Li Hong came out with Bai Chun and tried to adapt to the dark night. He looked up at the stars and cursed: ”Damn, where is the moon?”

”Your Highness, they are approaching.” Wei Tu Qi whispered.

”Is the route chosen?” Li Hong poked his neck to the foot of the mountain, but what he could see was darkness as well as darkness.

”Well, we'll lure them up the mountain, and some of them will turn around behind them, sneak on them, and then take the second road up the mountain, and then go all the way south.” Wei Tu Qi told Li Hong his plan without reservation.

”Yes, it's no longer that tough and reckless person. Be careful.” Li Hong nodded and said.

Then he took a look at Bai Chun behind him. The stars in the sky seemed to blink mischievously. Bai Chun had thousands of thoughts. In order to relieve his tension, he had been looking at the starry sky since he came out.

”Follow me.” Li Hong said in a low voice, then took Bai Chun's hand, followed Wei Tuqi and walked to the hillside.

”Why don't we run straight into the mountains?” At the foot of some staggering white pure, suddenly open mouth said.

”We can't run away unless we can fly. No one knows the path on the mountain. We open the road ahead. If the pursuers follow our path, we are not as fast as them. We will be caught up in one night, and our back will be completely exposed.” Li Hong patiently explained to Bai Chun.

Then he followed dozens of soldiers who were ordered to detour by Wei Tuji again and began to detour behind the pursuers. They lured the pursuers when they went forward. For safety, they had to go behind the enemy to see if they could find a way out for themselves and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

In order to protect himself, Li Hong also had to put his 200 people close guard and two close eunuchs in the light to confuse the enemy and protect himself.

Following Li Hong, Bai Chunxin is like a deer bumping into each other. She has the tension of participating in the war for the first time and the happiness of being held by Li Hong. In a word, two different mindsets spread and grow in her heart at the same time.

Similarly, Li Hong, no matter in this or previous life, or in any life, continues to prove a truth: women and men should not try to understand what they are thinking for 100 million years.

I don't know when the moonlight suddenly appeared from the thick clouds. With the white moonlight, like mercury pouring down, the originally dark earth began to show people their silence and mystery.The bow and crossbow naturally plays an extremely important role in this night. Even, because of its existence, the silent night is filled with an atmosphere of mystery and fear.
