The small group of people in front of Zhang Shuo and the others had long since disappeared.
Now Zhang Shuo and the others no longer know where they are.
This way.
He kept running behind these hundred or ten people.
Seeing that the cavalry was about to catch up, bows and arrows were fired from nowhere, and they had no choice but to dodge in confusion.
Along the way, I also lost dozens of people on my side.
But none of the people on the opposite side caught up!
It drove Zhang Shuo crazy.
It seems that it is completely dark now.
Zhang Shuo asked everyone to stop.
"damn it!"
"Stop chasing me!"
"Not even a hair!"
"A day wasted in vain."
"Where are we now?"
Zhang Shuo asked the person in front of him.
"ah?"
"I don't know, it just turned sideways as soon as we entered the mountain."
The soldier said with a confused look on his face.
"waste!"
“Everyone set up camp on the spot and we’ll talk about it tomorrow!”
Zhang Shuo knew that it would be even more dangerous to pursue them any longer. If there was any ambush that would be more troublesome, he simply asked everyone to camp in an open space and wait until early tomorrow morning to go straight to the county government.
Little did they know, just after they set up camp and buried pots to make rice.
A pair of eyes were watching them in the woods not far away.
…
The night is already deep.
After Zhang Shuo's camp finished eating, it gradually became quiet.
Hu Dugu and his men spent a whole day sneaking into the mountains.
They were already very tired.
There were only a few teams patrolling.
"Boss, I feel like it's almost time."
"Let's go!"
Zhao Gao lay down in a grass nest, holding a piece of thatch in his mouth, and crushed a satiated mosquito to death.
"Don't rush."
"The young master made a special statement before leaving."
"The first half of the night should be focused on harassment, and the second half of the night is a good opportunity to take action."
"Zhao Gao, bring a few people to make trouble. Don't make it too big. I'm not asking you to do it!"
"As soon as you're done, leave immediately, do it every hour, and then come back."
Hu Dugu said to Zhao Gao.
"ah?"
"Boss, if you don't really do it, how can you do it?"
"How about we just go in and steal the people out?"
Zhao Gao said helplessly.
"Just yell a little bit and pretend to attack."
"By the way, remember to find out their patrol patterns and bring back a few sets of clothes."
"This is the first action of our Thirty-sixth Cavalry. We only need to succeed, not fail. If we fail, everyone can wipe their necks!"
"Don't go back and be embarrassed."
Hu Dugu said calmly.
"ah?"
Zhao Gao was dumbfounded when he heard this.
The boss is too cruel.
But there was nothing I could do, so I had to put away my tendency to underestimate the enemy, select a few good ones, and quietly move toward the camp in front.
Inside the camp at this time.
Zhang Shuo was analyzing today's situation with several people.
"Judging from today's situation, this Sanhe County is really controlled by Xie Yunsong. Maybe now, this Xie Yunsong is already the county magistrate here."
"Today's harassment means that they already know we are coming."
"On the other hand, they also know that they are no match for us, so they use this method to consume us."
"It's nothing to worry about."
Zhang Shuo said to several people.
"Yes, Junhou, I think so too."
"With the current troops in Sanhe County, how can we be killed? He doesn't dare to fight head-on, so he can only do this petty theft. He probably wants to disrupt our rhythm."
Another person also followed suit.
"snort!"
"In the face of absolute strength, this little conspiracy is not enough!"
"You have looked down on me all these years ago. This time I will show you what I am capable of, Zhang Shuo."
Zhang Shuo said coldly.
The words just fell.
Suddenly there was a roaring sound outside.
"Brothers!"
"Kill!"
Zhang Shuo trembled.
Camp hijack?
Are they just waiting for now?
Zhang Shuo was shocked.
He quickly ran out with everyone.
"Where are the people?"
"Where did you rush in from?"
As soon as Zhang Shuo came out, he asked anxiously.
"That direction, but no one has rushed in yet!"
A few soldiers held knives and watched warily.
Zhang Shuo was very surprised.
How dare people from Sanhe County attack them at night?
You know, there are more than 500 of them now...well, more than 400 people.
Sanhe County has recruited people again?
This is really careless!
"Everyone!"
"All on alert!"
"Prevent the enemy from sneak attack!"
"Once you discover the enemy's whereabouts, don't attack rashly. Send a warning immediately!"
Zhang Shuo shouted loudly.
After listening to Zhang Shuo's words, everyone held weapons and stood ready.
But after a long time, there was still no movement.
This really left them scratching their heads.
In terms of sneak attacks, naturally the sooner you rush in, the better, and the less defenseless the enemy will be.
It is safest to quickly cause damage and then leave when the enemy is unprepared.
If only it were like now.
They were prepared for the situation.
Even if they rush in, the significance of the surprise attack will be of little significance.
"Where are the people?"
"Did I just hear someone yelling to come in?"
Seeing this, Zhang Shuo doubted whether his ears had heard it wrong.
"That's right, I heard it too."
"Yes, someone did shout."
People around also said this.
"you!"
"Take a team of people and go out in the direction where their voices came from to take a look!"
Zhang Shuo pointed at a person and said.
The man swallowed, but still ran in that direction with a dozen people.
After a while, he came back out of breath.
"Report to the Marquis!"
"Nobody!"
"I did find some traces."
The man said.
"trace?"
"How many people are there?"
Zhang Shuo asked.
"Absolutely no more than ten people!"
The man said very firmly.
It was just a grass nest, and judging from the traces, there were at most seven or eight people there.
"Grass!"
"The numbness was fooled!"
"This is someone who came here intentionally to harass!"
Zhang Shuo slapped his head in frustration.
"Let's all disperse!"
"Be on guard yourself to prevent a sneak attack."
Zhang Shuo waved his hand angrily.
Let everyone go back.
"Oh shit!"
"You just scared me!"
"Yeah, I'm worried that I don't know where the bow and arrow will come from."
"Who says it's not the case? I just lay down during my shift and let out a scream. It almost made me pee. I thought I had seen a ghost."
"Grandma's! Sleep!"
"..."
Many soldiers were also very dissatisfied and had been tricked for no apparent reason.
In Zhang Shuo's big account.
"It's a bit strange tonight."
"Why are there so many people here? If it's really a sneak attack, maybe it can really work!"
One person said with some fear.
"What's the point? Even if we let down our guard, we can't accomplish much with just the few people they have together!"
"Maybe, seeing that they have very few manpower, they are worried that they are no match for us, so they won't let us sleep peacefully."
"This is what happened."
Another person said from the side.
"In that case, pass on the order."
"Let a small number of people patrol and rest quickly. There will be a big battle to be fought early tomorrow morning."
Zhang Shuo waved his hand and drove everyone out.
Then he lay down.
But after such a tossing just now, I was covered in sweat, and the thick armor stuck to my body, making it sticky and uncomfortable.
In addition, there are not so many mosquitoes on the grass in summer.
After Zhang Shuo lay down, he tossed and turned for a long time without falling asleep!
He simply got up and took off his armor, then he felt a little more comfortable.
