At noon that day, the leader of Heiyun arranged for Axiong and his people to hide in the cave.
Almost everyone in the Black Cloud tribe would exclaim after entering the cave.
Before coming, they were worried that the cave would be crowded, but after arriving, they realized that they were overly worried.
The cave was much larger than they imagined.
The Heiyun tribe itself lives in caves and cave dwellings, and they are no strangers to caves, but this is the first time they have seen such a large cave.
More people gathered, and the idle party members also found another crack in the corner of the cave.
Walking along the crack, I found a cave deeper.
What surprised them even more was that there was a small underground river in the cave.
The scouts had prepared enough food in the cave in advance, but not much water, so they had to use it sparingly.
However, many places in the northwest are short of water, and the Heiyun tribe is accustomed to saving water.
But habit doesn't mean they like it. With this underground river, they no longer have to count the amount of water on their fingers.
Next, the Black Cloud tribe hid in the cave and waited for the arrival of Jin Feng.
The female worker and Tiehu Camp did not disappoint them either. Just as the scout expected, they appeared several miles away at around nine o'clock in the morning on the third day.
"Everyone hides in. No one can show their face without my order."
Ah Xiong evacuated everyone into the cave and blocked the entrance of the cave with gravel.
The cave was originally hidden, and now even if the scouts from Tiehu Camp walked to the entrance of the cave, it would be difficult to find the existence of the crack.
After all, we passed through too many mountains along the way and saw countless piles of rubble. It was impossible for the scouts to dig through every pile of rubble and take a look.
What's more, the crack is behind a huge boulder?
From the perspective of the official road, the location of the crack is a huge red stone, exactly the same as the surrounding mountain walls.
In fact, several Iron Tiger Camp scouts did walk over without even noticing the pile of rubble.
After running out of the Red Stone Mountain area, one of the scouts turned back and confirmed the safety of the main force in the rear.
The female workers and Tiehuying rode horses smoothly through the Red Stone Mountain.
It was the first time for many female workers to see such a large red stone mountain, and they couldn't help but be shocked by the magnificent sight in front of them.
In fact, this red stone mountain and Luolinggou in front are both Danxia landforms, which are not uncommon in Sichuan and Sichuan.
However, the climate in Sichuan and Sichuan is relatively humid. Over the years, moss will grow on the stones, and the vegetation on the mountain will be lush, covering the original appearance of the mountain.
The northwest lacks water, and most of the mountain peaks are bare. From a distance, the stone forest stands tall, making it look even more majestic and desolate.
When you are in it, there are towering red cliffs on both sides. From time to time, you can also see a stone forest that looks like a pillar, which will be even more shocking.
Even Zuo Feifei and Qing Mulan, who were hiding among the female workers, stopped talking and turned to look around, sighing at the miraculous craftsmanship of nature.
However, no matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will feel tired after looking at it for a long time.
After watching for a while, Qing Mulan turned back to chat with Zuo Feifei.
"Feifei, what do you think of an ambush here?"
"Miss Qing, look, there aren't even trees here, and people can't hide. How can we fight an ambush?" Bayi Chinese Website
Zuo Feifei pointed around and said.
It was so boring to be on the road, so chatting became the only way to pass the time.
Qing Mulan didn't like poetry, songs and the like, so she took Zuo Feifei to talk about military formations and wars.
Along the way, Qing Mulan didn't know how many times he told Jin Feng's battles in detail.
Zuo Feifei and Qing Mulan didn't know each other very well before, they were just acquaintances at most, but after getting along along the way, the two became close friends who talked about everything.
In fact, Qing Mulan also saw that this place was not suitable for an ambush. The reason why she asked again was just to find a topic to chat with Zuo Feifei.
Seeing that Zuo Feifei was not very interested, Qing Mulan asked with a bad smile: "Then let's talk about the progress of you and your husband. When are you planning to get married? Do you want me to help ask which tent your husband will stay at night?
, I asked Amei to tie him up?"
This issue was also the topic that the two talked about most along the way.
Although the Ninth Princess had been granted a marriage, during the march, one of them mingled with the female workers and the other mingled with the Iron Tiger Camp. Let alone having sex, they even met less than usual.
Especially in the past few days, men and women have to camp separately. It is not known whether Jin Feng deliberately avoided them or what happened. Zuo Feifei and Qing Mulan never saw Jin Feng once.
Every time she felt bored, Qing Mulan would tease Zuo Feifei about this incident, and then look at the shy Zuo Feifei and laugh.
This time was no exception, Zuo Feifei was still amused by Qing Mulan until her face turned red.
Angrily, she pinched Qing Mulan's waist and said angrily: "You come again, you come again!"
"I want to tell you about an ambush, but who told you to ignore me?" Qing Mulan smiled and patted Zuo Feifei's little hand away.
"You clearly know that this place is not suitable for an ambush, yet you deliberately come to ask me, why should I care about you?"
Zuo Feifei rolled her eyes at Qing Mulan, fearing that Qing Mulan would talk about Jin Feng again, so she quickly pointed to the front and changed the topic: "Look at the valley in front of you, is it the Luoling Valley that the guide said?"
In addition to sending scouts to explore the road ahead, Jin Feng also arranged for two guides.
Both of them were businessmen before, often traveling between Xizhou and Sichuan, and they were most familiar with this section of the road.
The most rare thing is that one of them has also served as a scout in the army before. He knows exactly where along the way it is suitable for ambush, where it is suitable for camping, and where there is water.
It is precisely because of the existence of this guide that the journey between the female worker and Tiehu Camp went very smoothly, and it also saved the scouts a lot of trouble.
Luolinggou is the location that the guide repeatedly reminded.
"There are steep cliffs on both sides, and the surrounding areas are either ravines or cliffs. There is only one road in the middle that can be taken. This place is indeed the best place for an ambush!"
Qing Mulan looked at the long, narrow and curved ravine in front of him and commented: "Sir, sir, will definitely send scouts to repeatedly investigate a place like this to confirm that there is no ambush before passing through. Therefore, the party members will not ambush here unless their brains are hoofed by horses."
!”
Perhaps to confirm Qing Mulan's words, as soon as she finished speaking, she saw Tie Huying walking in front and stopped.
The female workers also reined in their horses.
But they were not nervous, because along the way, they passed through too many mountains and there were too many places suitable for ambushes. This happened several times along the way.
Many female workers took this opportunity to take out their water bags and feed the war horses some water, waiting for the scouts to return from exploring the route.
At the front of the team, the Tiehu Camp scouts were divided into three teams. One team advanced along the ravine, while the other two teams jumped off their horses, found a relatively gentle place, and climbed up the cliffs on both sides of the ravine.
