Wu Kui carried his half-door-like machete and led more than 20 servants to clear the way in front, followed closely by 2,000 soldiers of Yuwen's army. Due to the narrow mountain road, the team could only go one after another.

The column moved forward, and the vanguard team stretched out on the winding mountain road for more than a mile.

General Chen personally led the follow-up troops of more than 70,000 people, keeping a certain distance from the forward troops and advancing sequentially along the paths left by the forward troops.

It has been two days since they entered the mountain, and they have penetrated deep into the remote mountains and old forests. Wu Kui and others relied on the memory of escorting two escorts in the past, and worked hard to move through the forest. Except for sleeping, Wu Kui and others kept

They never stopped, and even ate dry food while walking. They were getting farther and farther away from the team behind them, so luckily there were signs along the way to ensure that the team behind them wouldn't get lost.

In the early morning of the next day, Wu Kui, who was resting against a big tree, was awakened by the dew dripping from the branches. He raised his hand to wipe the dew on his face, and turned sideways to continue.

After sleeping for a while, I suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure walking through the woods in front of me.

He woke up and sat up, squinting in that direction. Although he didn't see anything passing by, several trees in the forest over there were shaking clearly. Could they be wild animals?

They were not afraid of the wild beasts in the mountains. There were so many of them and several bonfires were lit at night, so the wild beasts did not dare to approach them.

But if such a thick tree trunk could be shaken like that, then the thing that passed by just now was not just a giant beast? Wu Kui felt more and more strange, so he got up and walked over there, wanting to find out.

He quietly walked into the woods, looked around, and found a patch of grass in the southwest lying on the ground as if something had crushed it, so he walked towards the grass.

After walking along the grass that was crushed to the ground for a while, there was an open space in front of him. He looked around and didn't know where to go. Then he saw a huge footprint on the ground. He had never seen it before.

Such a big footprint, when I stretched out my foot to compare, it was actually half as big as his foot.

The second footprint was already a foot away, and the stride was so large that it was clearly a huge creature. Wu Kui, who was surprised and curious, followed the direction of the footprints and chased after it.

After searching for a while, the footprints disappeared at a slope. Wu Kui climbed up the slope and looked around, but found no obvious traces. He had no choice but to continue walking forward while observing, and unknowingly he had walked out again.

A long distance away.

After passing through a dense forest, there was another open space in front of him. Wu Kui stood on the edge of the forest and looked at the open space. He felt a little strange because the open space seemed to have been cut down by someone and did not seem to be formed naturally.

While Wu Kui was trying to figure out what was going on, he suddenly felt wind blowing in the back of his head. He screamed secretly and hurriedly dodged to the side, but was still brought down to the ground by a huge force. He rolled twice on the ground.

Looking sideways, he saw a huge monster with brown hair lying on the ground next to him.

Without thinking much, Wu Kui immediately turned over and fought back against the monster. He locked the neck of the monster tightly with his arms, wrapped one of the monster's arms with his legs, and leaned his upper body back hard in an attempt to suppress the monster.

The monster's other arm.

The brown-haired monster shook its head desperately, trying to get rid of the restraint. It let out a deafening roar, arched its back, and then turned over violently, trying to push the things on its back under its body.

Normally, with Wu Kui's size, it would not be a problem to deal with a tiger or black bear, but this monster was so powerful and heavy that Wu Kui had never encountered it before. He felt that he could not suppress the monster, so he hugged the monster.

Use your strength to roll back.

The monster was locked by Wu Kui's neck, and Wu Kui had no choice but to roll it out on the ground several times.

The two rolled to a stop in the middle of the clearing. Wu Kui was also overwhelmed by the huge monster, and the arms that locked the thing's neck were loosened. He was about to turn over and ride on the monster, when suddenly

His feet gave way, and his whole body sank downwards.

Wu Kui only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and he fell heavily to the ground. A lot of dust and stones fell overwhelmingly from above his head. In the dark sky and the ground, he couldn't see anything clearly. Wu Kui lost consciousness and fainted.

Early the next morning, the twenty or so local warriors who followed Wu Kui into the mountains could not find Wu Kui anywhere. Wu Kui's machete was still leaning against the tree, but the man was nowhere to be found.

Everyone shouted and searched, and at the same time sent people to contact the troops behind to report. After a while, the forward leader arrived with his team, and after asking about the situation, he also felt it was strange.

Some soldiers asked whether they would be chased away by wild beasts. The villagers sneered, saying that the beasts were afraid of him, so they dared to scold him? Besides, there were so many people here, and no one else would scold him? There was really a wild beast coming.

Will there be any movement?

Some people also said that it was easy to get into the forest and got lost. Everyone disagreed, saying that he was not a big girl, and he hid in the old forest after taking a shit? Yesterday afternoon, everyone saw him doing it on the roadside.

He doesn't avoid people when he's soaking in shit. It's obviously unreasonable to go far away for convenience at night.

Everyone was puzzled, so they had no choice but to send people to search the surrounding area while quickly reporting the situation to General Chen. By the time General Chen's large force arrived, half a day had passed.

In order not to delay the military situation, General Chen ordered two Xiangyong and ten soldiers to stay where they were and wait. If Wu Kui still did not come back after two days, they could return to Xingjing County to report the news. The remaining Xiangyong and the vanguard knew the way.

Together, the troops continued to lead the way and advanced into the territory of Tufan.

In addition, General Chen felt that there was something strange in the deep mountains, so he ordered the soldiers at the front and the local warriors to form groups in pairs to look after each other and not to leave the group alone.

At noon the next day, the troops finally walked out of the mountains and entered the plains. They were less than a hundred miles away from the capital of Tufan. After General Chen reorganized the troops, he quickly marched towards Yindu Prefecture.

When we were approaching Yindu Prefecture, we received a report from a scout from the front, saying that the defense of Yindu Prefecture was empty, there were not many troops, and the horses were not saddled, most of the soldiers were not wearing armor, and the garrison was almost unguarded.

General Chen was overjoyed when he heard this. Yindu Prefecture was originally a small city on the grassland, surrounded by flat rivers. There was no danger to defend. In addition, the defense was empty. It seemed that the city could be captured easily and without any effort.

Sure enough, when the troops led by General Chen reached Yindu Prefecture, they captured it almost without a fight. There were only more than 10,000 Tufan soldiers guarding the city. In panic, they only resisted briefly and surrendered. They had not even done anything yet.

Understanding how a Central Plains team suddenly appeared here, they became prisoners in a daze.

However, after entering the city, General Chen discovered that this place was actually just an empty city. There were no magnificent palaces or large official buildings. There were only some ordinary people walking between the streets and markets, and even the rich were rarely seen.

The captured Tufan officer told him that the princes, nobles and dignitaries of the Tufan Kingdom had moved to Gulu Pass, and they had just completed the move two days ago. General Chen thought that the Tufan people were originally a nomadic people.

They moved around, and only after gradually growing up in the past ten years, they slowly settled down. After stealing the land in the Central Plains, they were naturally willing to move in and enjoy the benefits.

Looking at this decadent capital city, General Chen felt that this was no longer the important town of Tufan Kingdom, but their abandoned son. It was no longer important to them. This also showed that Tufan Kingdom had

He is determined to annex the Central Plains.
