Chapter 118(2/3)
Cao Peng stopped asking and looked across the dense forest to carefully look at the stars in the mountains and valleys.
At the same time, I am also making calculations in my heart... There are three hundred people in Lei Xu, how should I deal with them so that I can escape unscathed?
His eyes narrowed into slits, he bit his lips tightly, and suddenly showed a strange smile.——
Lutaigang is silent.
Lei Xu entertained Zhou Cang at a banquet and got a little drunk.
After dark, he returned to his residence and fell asleep.
This sleep lasted until the end of the day, when Lei Xu felt his mouth was dry, so he sat up from the stone couch and drank a large bowl of water.
"What time is it?"
"Replying to the Commander-in-Chief, it's almost time."
Lei Xu liked his subordinates and called him Marshal.
I think back then, he was just a young handsome man, but now that Zhang Mancheng is dead and Bo Cai is dead, what's the harm in changing his name?
To a certain extent, the title "Da Shuai" can also satisfy his vanity.
However, after hearing the answer, Lei Xu frowned.
"Have Lei Cheng and the others come back?"
"Not back yet."
"Damn... This Lei Cheng's work is getting more and more uneasy." Lei Xu said, then stood up and washed his face with water from a stone trough. The water in late autumn was very cold.
... Lei Xu's somewhat confused brain suddenly became much clearer.
"Where are Zhou Cang and Hu Ban?"
"Reporting to Commander, Zhou Shuai has eaten too much and is taking a rest. Hu Ban and Zhou Shuai are together..."
For some reason, Lei Xu felt a little uneasy.
His eyelids were twitching, as if something was about to happen. He walked aside and picked up a long sword. The shape of the sword was slightly curved, quite like a hook. The name of the sword was Wu Gou, and it was made by a famous craftsman in Kuaiji. At that time, Bo Cai
In Yingchuan, after a series of great victories, he obtained the weapons from the hands of a child of a local aristocratic family. Later, Bo Cai died in the battle, and the Wu Gou fell into Lei Xu's hands.
He shrugged his nose and said, "Go out and take a look!"
After that, he walked out of the cave.
Several followers followed him closely and soon walked out of the cave.
It's very quiet in the mountains and forests.
Apart from the occasional cries of night birds, only the rustling of the mountain breeze echoes...
Lei Xu stopped suddenly, narrowed his eyes, and the uneasy feeling in his heart became more and more intense.
"Have all the checkpoints been arranged?"
"Everything has been arranged!"
"There's nothing happening outside the mountain."
"No!"
Lei Xu scratched his head and said as if talking to himself: "It's weird, why do I always feel like something is going to happen today?"
He turned around and was about to talk to his attendant.
Suddenly, I heard a rapid "dong-dong-dong-dong-dong" sound of war drums.
"What's the noise?" Lei Xu shouted loudly: "Where is the drum sound coming from?"
"It seems to be coming from outside the mountains!"
"Go and investigate quickly and see what's going on."
In an instant, the quiet mountain valley was in chaos.
Lei Xu led the people and rushed out of the valley, wanting to find out what happened.
But no one noticed that the two groups of people quietly walked out of the dense forest, followed the edge of the mountain col valley, and blended into the mountain col valley.
Dianman and Xiahoulan led the people into the grotto at the mouth of the valley. He was carrying a long sword and two halberds between his fingers in each hand.
"who!"
A shout came from the cave.
"The army is attacking. General Lei asked me to inform you and prepare."
"Oh...no, wait...ah!"
The thieves in the cave didn't pay attention at first. But when Nomman said the three words "General Lei", they immediately realized something was wrong. Who knows, Lei Xu never let his subordinates call him "General"
"General Lei", but called him "General".
So, they responded immediately.
It's just that Norimitsu's steps were fast, and as he spoke, his feet accelerated.
The flexibility and agility he had developed in the Tiangang Formation played a huge role at this moment. By the time the opponent reacted, Noriman had already rushed forward. Before the opponent could speak, the four hand halberds flashed with a cold light and he let go.
Flying out. Just as Noriman said, within ten steps, he could hit the target with every shot... The hand halberd turned into a little starburst, bang bang bang bang, hitting the vital points of the four thieves.
The thief screamed pitifully before he died, which alerted the other thieves in the cave.
Without saying a word, Xia Houlan rushed into the cave with a gun in his hand. The two-foot-long silver gun trembled in his hand, and he pulled out a big spear and hit someone in the chest. When he saw him, he remained silent and clasped his hands together.
The yin and yang handle threw out the corpse on the gun head. The big gun immediately turned into a silver light and flew out, nailing a thief who had just picked up the weapon to the wall...
At the same time, Noriman's family generals also rushed over, raising their swords and knocking the remaining thieves to the ground!
In a short time, the thieves in the cave were eliminated. From the time Noriman took action to the end of the battle, it only took a few breaths.
Noriman stood there, looking at the corpses on the ground, his heart thumping, thumping... beating!
It turns out that killing someone is so easy...
"Third Young Master, let's go out."
Noriman took a deep breath, tried to stabilize his somewhat excited mood, and nodded.
At this time, the mountain valley was in chaos. Not far after Lei Xu rushed out of the valley, he saw several thieves running towards him.
"Commander, something bad happened!"
"Why are you panicking?"
"The officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers are coming to kill!"
"ah?"
Although Lei Xu was mentally prepared, he couldn't help being surprised.
Officers and soldiers, why are you here?
"Have the officers and soldiers launched an attack?"
"This... there is no movement yet. But it seems that they have surrounded this place and may attack into the mountains at any time."
Lei Xu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief...
"That's good, it means they don't know where we are hiding.
The mountains and forests here are so dense, it will not be easy for them to find us... Brothers, don't panic!"
Lei Xu shouted loudly, finally calming down his subordinates' emotions.
"Damn, how did these officers and soldiers find this place?" Lei Xu cursed, and suddenly, a flash of light flashed in his mind. Stealing horses, Lei Cheng, Hu Ban, Zhou Cang, Wei Jia, Guan
Jun... During this time, the relationship that was originally sorted out seemed to become chaotic again in an instant. Their positions changed accordingly, and a new context emerged in Lei Xu's mind.
Zhou Cang, it was just too much of a coincidence for him to show up.
Hu Ban stole the horse, Zhou Cang happened to appear, and he happened to be Hu Ban's elder, Lei Cheng did not come back, and the Wei family was escorting the goods at this time, and the army came to the city...
Are so many coincidences really coincidences?
One coincidence or two coincidences is enough, but when countless coincidences come together, it is no longer a coincidence, but man-made!
"No, I was fooled!"
Lei Xu shouted and turned around to rush back to the valley.
At this moment, I heard people shouting and neighing in the mountains and valleys, and flames shot into the sky.
One after another, the war horses rushed out from the thick smoke. The thieves who had no time to dodge were knocked out by the war horses and instantly trampled into a puddle of rotten flesh. There were more than a hundred war horses in the mountain valley, and they were usually very strong.
Honestly, why did you start going crazy all of a sudden?
This further confirmed Lei Xu's thoughts and made him furious.
"Zhou Cang, how dare you bully me..."
Without saying a word, he led the people and rushed towards the valley.
To be continued...
