After a few more people were separated, only four brothers were left beside Commander Sun.
He looked at these siege equipment and vaguely felt that something was wrong.
However, reality will not give him a chance to think at all!
After hearing the sound of crossbow arrows piercing the air again, Commander Sun once again took the remaining brothers and headed deeper into the mountain forest.
This time, the Houjin cavalry following them did not pursue them again.
The leading Houjin man raised his arm and stopped his men who continued to pursue. He glanced at the siege equipment hidden in the woods, and then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Don't chase after the poor bandits, our mission has been completed. Everyone listen to the order and follow me to push out these siege equipment!"
The next moment, the team of more than a hundred people dismounted and tied the ropes that had been prepared to the horses.
Along with the neighing of the horses, the heavy and huge siege equipment slowly started to move. And their target is the Wucheng with bright lights and daylight in the distance!
…
In an unknown mountain forest,
Commander Sun suddenly opened his eyes!
He subconsciously touched the saber next to him, and felt slightly relieved when he felt that this familiar old partner was still there.
"Commander, you are finally awake!"
A scout who was luckily not injured saw him waking up and immediately came to his side.
"I'm fine."
Commander Sun shook his head slightly and looked toward the sky subconsciously. I just don’t know when it will start. Dark clouds cover the moon, but I can’t tell the time.
So he had no choice but to ask:
"About how long have I been unconscious?"
"Almost an hour."
The scout said and handed over a kettle.
Commander Sun took the kettle and drank a few gulps. He felt that the water was extraordinarily sweet, instantly soaking into his internal organs.
"What's the situation in Wucheng? I don't know if Xiao Liuzi and the others have passed on the information."
"Commander, it seems that there is still fighting in Wucheng, but it is difficult for us to help now. As for Xiaoliuzi and the others, they are all the elites of our scout camp. If they want to discredit their return to Wucheng, they are somewhat certain. of."
"You are seriously injured, so you should take care of yourself first."
When Commander Sun heard this, he shook his head slightly.
"In this situation, Wucheng is in danger, how can I leave myself out of it?"
"Well, let's talk about those siege equipment. They are probably the highlight of the Hou Jin people's siege."
"Calculating the time, these siege equipment should be on the way to the city, right?"
"That's not true!"
The scout who answered also had a bit of doubt in his eyes.
"Commander, these Houjin people are probably not good at making siege equipment. Look over there!"
Commander Sun looked in the direction of the scout's finger. Although it was still dark ahead, he could still clearly see the outline of the siege equipment.
It's just... they didn't seem to go very far.
According to visual inspection, there are only a few miles of mountain road, and there is still quite a distance from the Wucheng gate.
Looking at Wucheng again, I saw that the walls of Wucheng were densely covered with torches, even denser than the Milky Way in the sky.
As the leader, he naturally understands that the city lord is doing this to deal with the real main force!
But...the advance speed of these main forces is too slow, right? If they were going at their current speed, it would probably be past noon when they arrived at the city gate tower.
Are these late Jin people out of their minds?
An idea suddenly appeared in Commander Sun's mind. But the next moment, he instinctively felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
Even the ordinary soldiers of Hou Jin had not fought a few decent siege battles. But this does not mean that their commander has not experienced this.
On the contrary, the generals of Hou Jin Dynasty are all hard-working men who have experienced hundreds of battles and are brave and good at fighting!
It is impossible for him not to know that this speed of advance will definitely delay the fighter's opportunity.
But. It seems that General Houjin didn’t send anyone to urge him!
This matter... is very strange!
A flash of thinking flashed in Commander Sun's eyes.
The rest of the scout brothers took this opportunity to lean against the tree and close their eyes to rest.
This night, their scout camp really experienced too much.
Even in the morning, we were still patrolling with our comrades. At this moment, there is already a separation between yin and yang.
This feeling can't help but make the survivors feel extremely sad.
However, at this moment, Commander Sun couldn't care less about his sadness.
Because he has more important things to do than being sad!
Commander Sun rubbed his red eyes and suddenly stood up from the ground.
He cupped his hands towards the four remaining scouts and said:
"Brothers, I always feel that these Houjin people have very deep tricks. You see, shouldn't such an important siege equipment appear on the battlefield as soon as possible?"
"But what about now? These siege engines are so slow. I plan to get closer to investigate."
As soon as these words came out, the four remaining scouts suddenly widened their eyes.
They all stared at Commander Sun, with worries and distress in their voices.
"Commander Sun, we have done enough! There are hundreds of brothers in the scout camp, but now only a few of us are alive. Isn't this enough!"
"Those siege equipment are placed in front of us. I believe the city lord on the city wall has also seen all this. You, you'd better have a good rest."
Unexpectedly, Commander Sun stood up extremely stubbornly.
Perhaps due to excessive blood loss, his steps were still a little frivolous, but he still stood up firmly and climbed onto his horse.
"No, I still have to see it in person before I can rest assured."
As he spoke, he raised his riding crop and gave it a hard shake.
The next moment, the war horses neighed and galloped towards the direction of the siege equipment.
After about a stick of incense,
Commander Sun dismounted and tied his horse in an abandoned house.
As for him, he took advantage of the darkness and secretly moved in the direction of the siege equipment.
At this moment, he felt more and more that the fighting will of this so-called main force was extremely weakened.
They don't even bother to use some of the most basic anti-tracking methods.
At this moment, Commander Sun felt more and more that something was wrong.
Relying on his familiarity with the terrain, he actually found the position of the "main force of Houjin".
However, when Commander Sun saw the situation clearly, a drop of cold sweat slid down his temples...
No, I fell into a trap!
Where are the main forces around these siege equipment?
There were no more than one or two hundred people among them, and they were pushing the siege equipment forward with difficulty.
These are the main force of Houjin? What a joke!
