Chapter 61 Terrain
"Brother, what are your plans?" Zhang Jin was stunned, knowing that Wu Nian was not a random person, so he couldn't help but show interest.
With his temper, if he had no other choice, how could he let these bandits take advantage of him?
As long as it's not lifeless, then do it.
"Brother, please draw me a topographic map of Guilong Mountain." Wu Nian said seriously.
A wise woman cannot make a meal without rice. How to fight a war, you must look at the map.
"good."
Zhang Jin immediately got up and went inside the house. After tinkering for a while, he came over with a graffiti-like map and spread it on the rocks.
Wu Nian came up and bent down to look at the terrain map, listening to Zhang Jin's explanation.
"This is Ghost Dragon Mountain. There are cliffs to the north and west, ten feet high, making it difficult to fly. There is a narrow mountain road to the south and east. I heard that Wang Zhen set up a checkpoint in front of the mountain stronghold, guarded by bandits and dogs. We want to
It's extremely difficult to touch it in the dark. A frontal attack is even more futile."
Zhang Jin pointed at the map and became depressed as he spoke.
Who can break into this broken place?
But conversely, this place is also easy to attack. As long as there are many troops and horses, troops are stationed where necessary, and they are surrounded but not attacked. When the food on the mountain is used up, you can attack it without any effort.
But this requires at least three to five hundred people.
Counting Wu Nian's ten leading soldiers, they only numbered about thirty.
After Wu Nian took a look, he knew it well. It was not difficult to break through the Ghost Dragon Mountain, but only he had this ability.
"Brother, I understand." Wu Nian looked at Zhang Jin with a confident expression, and then asked: "How come they come to get food?"
"Brother, what's your plan?" Zhang Jin saw it and suddenly became itchy like a curious cat.
Wu Nian smiled at Zhang Jin and said nothing.
"You're just pretending to be someone else." Zhang Jin said angrily, but he didn't ask further questions. He also believed in Wu Nian.
This brother is not a random person.
"They were also afraid of being ambushed by me, so they didn't dare to come and get the food themselves. For one thousand kilograms of food, he asked me to choose ten men to carry the food over the mountains to Guilong Mountain. But they also specifically refused to let me go because they were afraid of me.
The center blooms.”
Zhang Jin explained.
"Those who carry grain, count me in."
Wu Nian said with a smile.
Zhang Jin frowned and said to Wu Nian: "Brother, you are quite capable, but their archers can shoot you into a hedgehog."
"Brother, don't worry, I'm not going to the center to bloom, but to explore the terrain." Wu Nian smiled and shook his head.
A man without armor is not capable of fighting a hundred bandits.
"Okay." Zhang Jin felt relieved and nodded.
The two calculated it together, and soon after, Wu Nian, Wang Yang, Lao Zhang and other ten people transported food to Guilong Mountain.
Guilong Mountain is only five miles away from Fenghuang Mountain. Wu Nian and others are all mountain people. They climbed over the mountains and ridges as if they were walking on flat ground, and soon arrived at Guilong Mountain.
They entered the mountain from the south. Just as Zhang Jin said, the mountain road was very narrow. When they were about to reach the top of the mountain, there was a wooden checkpoint blocking the way.
Several bandits were guarding the checkpoint, and there was also a dog.
Human ears will malfunction, but dog ears will not. The guard is really tight.
"They are really exiled military households. These people are not ordinary bandits, they have the appearance of regular troops." Wu Nian hid in the grain transport team and thought to himself after observing for a while.
After some negotiation, the grain transport team successfully passed the checkpoint and entered the mountain village.
The buildings in the village are very new, and the wood on some houses looks like they have just been chopped down. They have a large population, with families and families.
According to Zhang Jin's information, there are a hundred strong men.
After the grain transport team entered the mountain stronghold, there was an open place. There were ten archers and twenty swordsmen around, forming a circle and watching eagerly.
A tall and sturdy man about forty years old, with a Chinese character face, full of flesh, round eyes, and a tall build, sat on a Taishi chair and looked at the grain transport team unruly.
There was a bench on his left, with a terrifying machete standing on it. The blade was white and shone coldly in the sun.
This is a good knife.
He is the bandit leader Wang Zhen, the one who dared to rob Zhang Jin.
"Chief Wang, this is the thousand kilograms of grain we handed over. Please count it." Wang Yang, with a pockmarked face, walked up and said to Wang Zhen with a bold fist.
"Hahaha." Wang Zhen laughed so hard that the flesh on his face kept shaking, looking very scary.
"This kid Zhang Jin is quite famous in the neighborhood. But when he meets me, Wang Zhen, there is nothing he can do. We have many brothers, and a pack of wolves can eat a tiger."
Wang Zhen stood up and looked at Wang Yang's impressive momentum.
"The big boss is mighty!!!"
"The big boss is mighty!!!"
The bandits around them suddenly became more morale-minded. They all raised their steel knives and roared in unison. The loud sound frightened the nearby birds and they flew away.
Wang Yang and others looked ugly, but they didn't have an attack.
If they do anything now, they will only end up being shot into hedgehogs.
"Well. That's enough. From now on, you have to pay me one thousand kilograms of grain every year. Now get lost." Wang Zhen just wanted to show his authority and had no intention of doing anything to Wang Yang and others. He waved his hand like shooing away flies.
.
There is really no place to rob around here, and they have a large population, so one thousand kilograms of food is quite a lot every year.
Leeks must be harvested slowly and grow slowly. They cannot be cut in one go.
Wang Yang turned around and left without saying a word. The food transport team, including Wu Nian, also followed.
Wu Nian didn't bring it with his mouth, but his eyes did, taking in the entire topography of this poor place.
He was fully confident in his heart that he could break through this stronghold.
But we have to wait until night before we can take action.
"Wait a minute." Wang Zhen suddenly felt something was wrong and shouted.
Suddenly, the bandits around him bent their bows and set arrows, or raised their steel knives. As long as Wang Zhen gave an order, Wu Nian and others would become hedgehogs.
"Do you have any other orders from Chief Wang?" Wang Yang's face turned livid, he turned around, reluctantly clasped his fist at Wang Zhen, and asked.
Wang Zhen did not answer Wang Yang, but glanced at the grain transport team for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Wu Nian.
"Is this person from your mountain?" Wang Zhen asked with a frown.
Wang Yang and the rest of the grain transport team were trembling in their hearts and became extremely nervous. Could this guy have seen something?
Even Wu Nian was slightly shocked, but his face remained calm.
"Yes." Wang Yang took a deep breath and replied calmly.
"That's not right. Appearance comes from the heart. When you guys stand here, they are just soldiers. But when he stands here, he seems to be an official, with an aura."
Wang Zhen shook his head, showing suspicion.
