Eight hundred and twentieth nine chapters can not turn back
As night fell and the sky grew darker, the camp was quickly arranged in a defensive formation, but the location of this camp was not ideal.
The reason is very simple, because this is not a camp that provides a night's rest, but a place for the team to rest and camp temporarily.
The road from Linshan County to the Imperial Capital was not only extremely difficult to travel because it was walking in the mountains, but there were also relatively few places for rest. Fortunately, after constant research and exploration, people
I also gradually summarized the current route, and found places where the team could take a temporary rest every certain distance.
Some locations are better, just on the way forward, while others need to detour a certain distance on the way forward. However, even if it is a troublesome way to avoid the route, everyone will go to the resting place without any trouble, because in the elixir
This is the wisest approach within the mountains.
After all, this is still a paradise for Warcraft. If you don't find a good place to rest, you may very well be besieged by Warcraft.
General Tao adjusted the distance and speed of the team, allowing the team to move past the normal night camp location and to the camp location where they would rest at noon the next day. This is also an open space and allows the team to
Stay and rest, but there are less flat areas available for use.
Therefore, the entire team's camp needs to be compressed, and the compressed camp will become crowded. However, this is also a result that the Tao Master wants, because in this way, the camp's defense will become tighter.
Zuo Feng had already sensed General Tao's intention when he arrived here. It can be said that this was the most appropriate and synergistic way of handling the situation among his conservative methods.
After a day's journey, it was naturally a bit miserable for the guards, but it was not much different for Zuo Feng. His own cultivation level was not low, and most of those people traveled with a pair of meaty legs, and
Instead, he used a horse to travel, so that at night he only had some pain in his buttocks.
Although he is not tired, Zuo Feng's heart is still like a stone. The assassin's problem has not been solved, but it has not changed for the time being after being dealt with by Master Tao in this way. But this does not mean that it can
Solve the problem.
He wanted to distance himself from the enemy by running quickly. At the same time, he changed his original pace and traveled an extra half day to rest here. He hoped that in this way, the opponent would not be able to predict his foothold.
.
However, Zuo Feng was not as optimistic as General Tao, because they could not change the route, which was actually an unsolvable knot. No matter whether you were fast or slow, you were always on this route, so his method was
It seems a little too passive and negative.
General Tao may not be optimistic. As the leader of this team, he probably thinks more about self-preservation and safety. It is also extremely difficult to find and deal with enemies in such mountains and forests. He adopts
This method is to disrupt the enemy's pace, and then wait and see.
However, Zuo Feng's analysis concluded that since the opponent was able to successfully kill eight people and sneak into the camp on the first night, it shows that the enemy's strength and understanding of this team should not be underestimated. Therefore, this method is not only impossible
Allowing the enemy to make mistakes will expose your own cowardice.
What was different from the previous night was that after Zuo Feng made arrangements at the camp, he had a hasty meal and went to bed. At the same time, he also told Amber that something might happen tonight, so he should go to bed as early as possible to cope with what happened next.
.
But what surprised Zuo Feng was that it seemed particularly quiet that night. Not only was it extremely quiet inside the camp, but it was also very quiet outside the camp.
The Spiritual Medicine Mountain Range is different from the Tianping Mountain Range. There are a large number of magical beasts in the Spiritual Medicine Mountain Range, and many wild beasts also live there. The Tianping Mountain Range is divided into internal and external parts. Only monsters exist inside, even barbarians with impure blood.
All the beasts will be cleared out, leaving only the pure-blooded monsters living inside.
The coexistence of monsters, wild beasts, and savage beasts in the Elixir Mountains has also resulted in a mixed situation of various beasts. Therefore, it is difficult to be truly quiet inside the Elixir Mountains.
Such a large group of humans stationed in the mountains will definitely attract the attention of wild beasts, and they even encountered attacks from monsters on the first day. Even if nothing unexpected happened at night, there would still be occasional wild beasts attacking, but tonight it was quiet
It's so unusual that you can't even hear the sound of wild beasts.
Zuo Feng and Amber both slept well in the first half of the night. In the second half of the night, they both got up and rested by meditating. Warriors meditate when practicing, and meditation can also make warriors calm down. This is how they wait
In emergencies.
However, the night passed so peacefully. It was not until the team gathered in the morning that someone was shocked to discover that ten people were missing from the outer sentry posts. These ten people were responsible for the outermost security, although they had high cultivation levels.
Some are low, but overall the cultivation level is still on the low side.
For such a team of 200 people, it was no small matter to lose more than a dozen people at once. Adding in the eight people who died the previous night, almost twenty people were lost at once.
General Tao was furious and summoned three lieutenants for discussion. However, these three lieutenants had no idea about this. Not only the three lieutenants, but also the other sentries did not know what happened last night. They did not even notice anything unusual.
, lost more than ten brothers in this way.
A feeling of panic quietly spread among the team, because everyone knew that the more than ten people who were missing were probably in danger. They were all well-trained soldiers, and they would not desert and escape, let alone lose their souls.
Run away within the Medicine Mountain Range.
There are no cities nearby. Even if someone wants to have fun, the nearest city is Linshan County, which is almost two days away. Therefore, everyone knows that these people are probably dead, just like the eight people who died the night before.
, not even as good as the eight people who left corpses behind.
General Tao discussed with the three lieutenants for a long time, and then reorganized the team and continued to set off. This time, General Tao did not even ask Zuo Feng. Obviously, he no longer wanted Zuo Feng to get involved in this matter, although Zuo Feng also wanted to talk to him.
General Tao said, but the other party did not give him this opportunity at all.
After the team simply packed up, they hurriedly set out on the road. However, everyone's face seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, and the haze gave people the feeling of being filled with a layer of death.
Although they did not discuss it with General Tao, Zuo Feng and Amber discussed it quietly on the road.
"It seems that this matter is very serious. What should we do next?"
At this time, Amber is no longer like when he first participated in the mission of the new county. At that time, he was still a warrior of the Kang family and served the Kang family. Although he performed many tasks at that time, the problems that the Kang family had to face were
Compared to those I encountered later, they were much more childlike.
The most indispensable thing about being with Zuo Feng is adventure, and when he encounters more dangers, he becomes numb, or in other words, he has been able to remain calm. He knows that Zuo Feng must have some concerns about the current situation.
his own thoughts, so he wanted to seek Zuo Feng's opinion first.
Zuo Feng seemed very calm. After hearing the inquiry, he immediately said: "I'm afraid the situation is worse than I thought, because the enemy is obviously prepared and is much stronger than the team around us. But
The fact that they have not taken any action shows that they are not in a hurry to solve it yet."
Amber, who listened carefully to Zuo Feng's words, nodded silently after listening. He felt the same way.
Then he said: "Could Master Tao not be able to see the current situation clearly? Why is he still acting like this now?"
"He was just lucky, thinking that the other party had some scruples, so he didn't take any big action. If I'm not wrong, he should continue to hurry up today in order to leave the Spiritual Medicine Mountains as soon as possible. This section of the road
The length is fixed and the route cannot be changed, but he can adjust his speed.
In this way, if he can get out of the elixir mountain range before losing too many manpower, he can get help from other cities. However, his idea should have been expected by the enemy. I believe that if nothing unexpected happens, the enemy will
There will be big action in the next couple of days."
After hearing this, Amber frowned, as if with a trace of doubt, and said slowly: "You mean they will still use such tricks, such a cat-and-mouse killing method, is it just to put pressure on us?"
Zuo Feng took a long breath and couldn't help but turn his head to look at the center of the team, where General Tao was. After looking back, he said: "That's exactly what they thought. Originally, they were there on the first night.
If the operation can be successful, at least they still don't want to kill all of this team. But the operation failed on the first night, and they changed their methods. It was only after those people disappeared that I understood their thoughts."
Seeing Amber, he was still a little puzzled. He then said slowly: "What they have to do is to drive me away and drive me to a place far away from Linshan County. They seem to have some scruples about Linshan County."
, so they use this method to drive us away. As long as they think Linshan County will not affect their actions, they will take action against us."
Hearing this, Amber's face became extremely ugly, and she immediately said, "Then why don't you tell General Tao this? After all, we still rely on them now."
Zuo Feng slowly shook his head, and before Amber finished speaking, he interrupted him and said: "It's too late now. If an accident happens on the first night, he can still choose to go back. Now we have gone too far, and
I only thought of this after learning that someone was missing last night, and now I can only walk around."
