Eight hundred and thirty sixth chapter over the mountains
It has to be said that both Amber and Zuo Feng underestimated General Tao, or that the two of them had lost all their good impressions of him because of the other's previous mistakes.
However, General Tao is the chief general of Linshan County after all, and he is an outstanding one among the generals. Otherwise, he would not be selected as the person in charge of this escort team. When he faces some problems, he may be affected by it.
There are limitations in various aspects, but it has its advantages when making strategic deployments.
Amber's eyes were opened at this time, because he had led some teams to perform tasks in the Kang family before, and some difficult situations inevitably occurred. What he had to consider at that time was how to complete the task and reduce his own losses.
Keep it to a minimum and try your best to preserve strength for the family. After all, every bit of strength is carefully cultivated by the family.
But now that he saw General Tao, he had a completely different approach. This strategy, which completely ignored losses, was not so much refreshing to him as it subverted his original thinking.
Zuo Feng was also surprised by the situation in front of him, but he was never like Amber. On the contrary, he quickly accepted General Tao's approach. When they were in Yancheng, the overt and covert fighting between An Xiong and Zhang Yu,
Many people were sacrificed in this way, and some of their subordinates were even sent over to be dealt with by the other party.
The army's approach is very different from that of the family. The army emphasizes absolute obedience and takes the general's orders as the greatest premise. However, the family puts family interests first, and everyone from the patriarch to the servants below must follow this principle.
Heavy, so both parties will have completely different ways of dealing with problems.
Master Tao's strategy today can be considered a success so far, and it can be considered a great success. At least the only ones he has lost so far are those he wants to abandon.
The warriors who were the first to break out from the north were actually not low in strength, and there were also warriors in the middle stage of tendon tempering. These people were thrown out like meat to hungry wolves, and they did not have much impact on them whether they lived or died.
meaning.
The second group of people were probably told something in secret, and most of them thought that the first group of people were for sacrifice, and that they were the ones that the general wanted to keep. Little did they know that the only difference between them was that they died earlier and died later.
That’s all.
These two groups of people almost used up more than half of General Tao's manpower. It was not that he did not care about casualties, but that otherwise he would not be able to create the illusion that the entire army was dispatched to break out in one direction.
If he wants to confuse the enemy, he must let so many people fill in to confuse the enemy's ears and eyes. And this still has a prerequisite, that is, it must be in a dark and chaotic night. If it is daytime,
Even if there are only a dozen or so people missing, they will be easily noticed by the enemy.
If Zuo Feng was allowed to plan the initial escape strategy, he would only be able to do this one step, but General Tao was more far-reaching than he thought. It was only when Zuo Feng left the fence of the camp that he suddenly remembered Hua Qi.
A surprise force on one side, these people themselves did not see half a person tonight.
When he thought of this, he suddenly understood why he had these warriors who were in the early stages of tempering around him. They were actually like the first and second batch of people, they were sacrificed for the smooth escape of others.
Zuo Feng and Amber, who had taken the blast liquid, did not completely let go of their speed, but followed the people led by General Tao to retreat quickly to the southeast. After the two of them increased their speed, they were still in the middle and rear of the team.
Zuo Feng also considered that the person left behind can be delayed for a while and a half. If there is another problem now, it may be in the front. If the two of them rush to the front at this time, it will not only bring danger to them, but also
At the same time, it is possible for the two of them to be noticed by others.
Fortunately, Zuo Feng has reached the third level of the tendon quenching stage, but Amber only has the strength of the first level of the tendon quenching stage. It is a miracle that he has not been left behind at this level. If he still has the ability to run to the front of the team, it is a miracle.
Already.
The two of them moved as low-key as possible at the back of the team, occasionally taking a peek at the surrounding environment to determine their current location. Unlike other soldiers, the two of them mostly followed the general in front and ran blindly.
Zuo Feng and Amber would never dare to do this. If they did, it would be equivalent to entrusting their lives to the hands of others. At that time, they would really hand over their lives.
There was a terrain map that had been made before, so Amber was able to barely identify the approximate location of this place. As Zuo Feng had judged, General Tao led this group of people to retreat towards Linshan County City, and
The escape routes chosen were also the same as Zuo Feng said.
In fact, Zuo Feng had sensed General Tao's psychology. Perhaps General Tao was familiar with the terrain on this road, but if we were to say that he was deeply impressed, the terrain he had just walked through in the past two days was the most familiar to him. Of course, this was the way to escape.
The underwater terrain is more stable.
It's just that he didn't dare to take people along the original main road, because the possibility of an enemy ambushing on this road was very high.
Master Tao avoided the main road with a group of people, so they could only walk through the mountains with dense forests and strange rocks. Walking through such mountains not only tests one's cultivation, but also a person's all-round qualities.
In the dark night, even if there is moonlight, most of it will be blocked by trees, so you can't see much clearly. In addition, they don't dare to light torches, which will only reveal their position, and even the sound must be as low as possible.
Control is not issued.
This makes walking in the forest even more difficult. Although cultivation can be an aid, it is not everything you need to survive in a place like this.
When Zuo Feng entered the mountain forest, his whole body felt as if he had been given a full-body massage. He was extremely relaxed and felt refreshed. If the current situation was not right, he would even want to give a long shout,
To release this extremely happy mood in my chest.
The dark night had almost no big impact on Zuo Feng. He had grown up in the mountains and forests since he was a child, and later became more sensitive after his body transformation. Therefore, things that cannot be seen clearly in other people's eyes can be seen clearly in the eyes of others.
In his eyes, it was as if it was clearly in front of him.
At this time, Kohaku was already struggling. If he hadn't used all his speed and had the auxiliary effect of the blast liquid, he might have been thrown some distance away by the brigade.
Seeing this, Zuo Feng stretched out his hand to pull on Amber's sleeve, and at the same time pointed behind him. Amber came behind Zuo Feng without hesitation, and the two of them changed from being parallel to each other.
Stand in a row, one behind the other.
Amber came behind Zuo Feng and immediately felt the difference, because originally he would run forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow. Sometimes he would inadvertently stumble over something and stagger out for a few steps before he could stabilize his center of gravity.
.
But the situation behind Zuo Feng is completely different. Zuo Feng will constantly adjust the direction as he moves forward. This adjustment is not a change of route, but a slight adjustment on the original route. If this kind of constant adjustment of route is
It is difficult for outsiders to detect it. Only people like Xiang Amber who are following closely behind him can detect it.
After following Zuofeng, Amber found that the road under his feet became much easier, and he never tripped over anything. Not only that, the route they walked also seemed to be flatter, at least not as high and low as before.
happens frequently.
Looking at Zuo Feng's back, Amber couldn't help but feel a little emotional. How many unknown secrets did this young man have? Whenever the other party brought some surprises to him, he would think that he had understood the other party, but soon this kind of thing would happen.
Replaced by some new situations, you will find that you don't understand the other party at all.
Just like what was happening right now, the team of about sixty or seventy people dispersed slightly after entering the mountain forest. Because the road was difficult, if they were crowded together again, it would make walking even more inconvenient.
Amber has seen several people fall down not far away, and then quickly get up and follow. The team is moving at the full speed it can now. Once someone falls, they will fall behind the team. No one
They would stop and wait, and no one would take a second glance. Everyone was paying full attention to the situation in front of them.
But looking at the young man in front of him, it can be judged from his gait and posture that he has not exerted his full strength at all. Looking at his appearance, there seems to be a relaxed and freehand atmosphere. If Amber didn't
Misunderstanding, Zuo Feng is actually moving forward with a sense of enjoyment.
This thought lingered in his mind for a while, and Amber forced it out. He also tried his best to focus on Zuo Feng's movements. He needed to follow Zuo Feng, and believed that as long as he could keep up with Zuo Feng, then
You will never be left behind by the team.
As the team continued to move forward, they gradually deviated far from the original road, but this was much faster than walking back to Linshan County on the road.
Because this road was originally built for large groups of people and horses to walk, not only people and horses can walk, but also horse-drawn carriages. In this way, the route needs to choose a less rugged place, sometimes taking long detours, and some
Sometimes we go around the mountainside, which actually makes the route much longer.
At this time, they went straight over the mountains and approached Xiangqian. At this moment, Zuo Feng suddenly stretched out his hand, and Amber immediately noticed his action. Zuo Feng then pointed forward, and Amber immediately followed his pointing.
Looking forward in the direction, two mountain peaks stand side by side in front of you. There is a valley sandwiched between the two mountains. This valley is also the place Zuo Feng once mentioned to Hu Hu.
Seeing the valley appearing in front of her, Amber immediately raised her vigilance. According to Zuo Feng's judgment, it would be very unsafe. If they could pass through here smoothly, they would have almost an hour of safety. But the premise was that they could pass through smoothly.
There were too many delays here, and we were even surrounded and killed here.
