Li Buobui quietly stuck his head out from the grass and looked out, his movements very slow.
He had a camouflage tied with grass on his head, making it difficult to detect from a distance.
He had been hiding here for half an hour, but the captain still didn't have any orders.
The captain said, wait.
Before he ambush here, the captain pointed to a sparse forest in front and said that there must be an ambush there.
But judging from what Li Bufu had learned now, it was really not suitable for an ambush there.
The woods are so sparse that you can almost see through them at a glance. Even if there are people hidden in the trees, they can't hide much.
At this time, the sky was getting dark. If they didn't attack, the thieves would most likely escape during the night.
He wanted to go out and give it a try, but when he thought of the tragic death of Captain Zhao Youzhi and others, he suppressed this impulse again.
The captain had already sent someone to pass on the order, asking people from other branches to come over for support.
The people behind, led by the captain, were making shields out of ivy and branches.
The double-shot crossbows of those gangsters were very sharp, and it was as easy to pierce a person as to pierce a piece of tofu.
This kind of thing is not available in the Qi soldiers, and maybe not everyone in the Beiye Army can get it.
This kind of thing cannot be made by just a small workshop.
The weapons used by Dayu's army, especially things like double-shot crossbows, are completely lethal weapons created to target practitioners.
Even if you encounter an absolute master with four rays or above in the Diocesan Realm, a five-man team of soldiers, combined with dual crossbows, can deal with them, and may even kill them.
This thing is so powerful that it can penetrate deep into bricks and stones.
A wooden pillar with thick legs can almost be penetrated.
Captain Jiang Shengshang asked the soldiers to use ivy branches and hemp rope to make shields. They may not be able to block the crossbow arrows, but after all, they have an extra layer of protection.
Lin Ye squatted behind a clump of grass and looked at the forest opposite.
The captain's guess is absolutely correct, the ambush must be over there.
The next step is to be patient. If the troops from each branch camp are mobilized before dark, the gangsters will be considered defeated.
After forming a siege, no matter how hard they fought, they had little chance of winning when faced with a siege of at least thousands of people.
But Lin Ye knew that the Captain asked everyone to wait patiently, not just for support.
He quietly retreated and moved to Jiang Shengshang's side.
"Captain, it's getting dark soon."
Jiang Shengshang nodded while tying his shield: "Yes, it will be dark soon."
Lin Ye sat down and said, "They might escape when it gets dark."
Jiang Shengshang nodded: "They will definitely escape when it gets dark."
The conversation between the two people seemed to be meaningless at all.
The bandits should know very well that once the ambush has been discovered, if they don't leave after dark, the whole army may be annihilated.
Lin Ye didn't say anything else. He already understood the captain's thoughts.
When it gets dark, those gangsters escape. Just run away. If you run away, many people won't die.
If he really doesn't escape, even if the contract soldiers from each battalion come to support him and take down those guys who know how to kill, the contract soldiers camp will definitely suffer heavy losses.
Moreover, it was almost dark, but the support from each battalion did not arrive in time.
Jiang Shengshang glanced at Lin Ye and handed him the tied shield.
"They are all young people. It's a pity, it's really a pity..."
Jiang Shengshang rubbed his hands on his waist, because he had been physically exhausted today and old injuries began to torment him again.
Over the years, whenever the weather was bad, old injuries would pop up, using pain to bring back his memories, so he never forgot how each injury came about.
"They probably won't counterattack at night."
Jiang Shengshang was talking to himself.
Lin Ye: "At night, light a fire and light everything around to let them know where we are."
Jiang Shengshang was stunned for a moment, then smiled and nodded.
He said: "Good idea."
Those ruthless bandits knew how to fight and were better at laying ambushes, so when they saw a fire being lit at the Qi Barracks, they did not dare to approach rashly.
Jiang Shengshang took off the cloth wrapped around his knees and tied it up again and again.
"The war shouldn't be fought by you people."
He shook his head: "I don't understand what the general means this time."
In the forest, Ying Changtian, who was sitting on a tree branch, also shook his head at this time.
"Tell everyone to evacuate after dark. This battle can no longer be fought."
He subconsciously touched his waist, but his short sword was no longer there.
"Jinghong."
Ying Changtian stretched out his hand: "Give me your double-shot crossbow."
Luo Jinghong took off the crossbow and handed it to him, and then took off the dagger and handed it to him.
Ying Changtian was silent for a moment and shook his head: "No need."
Luo Jinghong said: "I'll go with you."
Ying Changtian said: "You take the brothers to retreat to Beishan, and I will follow you."
Luo Jinghong: "Then let Xiao Jiuer go with you!"
Ying Changtian still shook his head, Luo Jinghong said: "Then we won't leave."
Ying should be silent for a long time.
He wanted to get his knife back, not only because the knife was indeed extraordinary, but also because the knife was special and might expose its owner.
The material used to make the sword was not a common thing, and the quantity was originally small. The plan was to forge a long sword for each of the leaders, and then forge armor.
But Ying Changtian didn't agree and divided all the materials equally. Everyone got such a short knife.
If the imperial court wanted to investigate, based on the material sales of the dagger, it would be very likely to find the owner.
In the silence, the sky quickly became dark, and the darkness in the mountains became faster and more complete than outside.
The opposite side lit up, and fires appeared one by one.
Ying Changtian frowned.
Veterans are really hard to deal with.
The fire was set in the outer circle, and the contract soldiers gathered together. Unless they all rushed over, they would not be able to kill all the contract soldiers here so quickly.
If they all rush over, they will most likely be ambushed by the contract soldiers. After all, the support from each battalion should be in place.
Seeing the fire, Luo Jinghong said: "Don't go. My boss is very careful in his work, so he may not be exposed because of that knife."
Ying Changtian said: "My boss's kindness is too great. I can't be negligent. I can't even take the chance."
Luo Jiuhong said: "You said that the captain was very strong."
Ying Changtian: "I have already thought about how to kill him. As long as I don't let him get close, he is no match for me."
At this time, Ying Changtian was already regretting that he should have picked up the knife when it fell to the ground.
The captain probably didn't have the strength to fight anymore at that time. He was deceived by being punched in his Dantian but still able to stand up.
In addition, he was worried that there would be experts from Qi Barracks coming up behind him, so he turned around and ran away.
Ying Changtian thought for a moment, lied to Luo Jinghong and said he wanted to take Xiao Jiu'er there, and then moved to Xiao Jiu's side: "Take the people and evacuate."
Xiao Jiu: "Where are you, brother?"
Ying Changtian said: "I will catch up with you soon after I break up."
He took off his mask, put a black scarf on his face, and then took off his clothes. Inside was a set of contract soldier uniforms.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Jiu also started to take off his outer clothes. Each of these gangsters was wearing a contract soldier uniform underneath.
Ying Changtian waved his hand: "Let's go."
Xiao Jiu imitated a few bird calls, and the gangsters who were ambushing around them retreated quietly.
Lin Ye also heard the bird's cry. He stood up and took a look, guessing that the enemy was probably about to escape.
He looked at the captain. Of course the captain understood better than him. He was an extremely experienced veteran.
But the captain didn't say anything.
Lin Ye sat down again. The captain's decision was right.
But at this moment, the sound of birds disappeared for only a few breaths, and the sound of horns came out.
That's the signal to attack.
Jiang Shengshang immediately shouted: "Who blew the horn!"
Li Bufu looked down and saw that his horn was hanging there, but he didn't move.
"behind!"
Someone shouted.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people were seen coming up from behind, and General Jing Sheng walked up to them with a somewhat ugly expression.
"What are you waiting for?"
He pointed to the woods in front of him: "The thieves are about to leave, are you just watching?"
Speaking of this, he looked at Captain Jiang Shengshang, who said: "General, the soldiers have no experience in fighting at night. If we catch up and get ambushed..."
"Don't be a soldier if you're afraid."
Jing Sheng ordered: "Soldiers, take off Jiang Shengshang's captain's uniform. He retreats before the battle. Take him away and deal with him when he returns."
His soldiers stepped forward, and Lin Ye took a step across to stop Jiang Shengshang.
"Your Majesty the Captain's judgment is correct. If you pursue us at this time, you will definitely suffer heavy losses."
Jing Sheng waved his hand: "Take off Lin Ye's captain's uniform too."
Several soldiers came up and pointed their crossbows at Lin Ye and Jiang Shengshang.
Jiang Shengshang pulled Lin Ye and shook his head to indicate not to resist anymore.
"Tie them both to the tree temporarily."
Jing Sheng ordered: "Others, follow my orders and light torches to pursue!"
The people from Qi Barracks immediately took action, lit torches, and rushed towards the darkness ahead.
Jing Sheng turned back and glanced at Lin Ye: "You violated military discipline in the city, and now you are afraid of the battle. Even if the princess protects you and cannot kill you to maintain military discipline, you can't even think of staying in the Qi Army Camp."
After speaking, he strode forward.
Everyone had left, and only Lin Ye and Jiang Shengshang were left here.
Both of them were tied to the tree, and they were tied with extremely tough beef tendon ropes. Lin Ye was tied dozens of times, and his hands and legs were tied separately. Jiang Shengshang was better off.
The two looked at each other, and then Jiang Shengshang smiled bitterly.
"This is my first time fighting such a stupid fight."
Lin Ye said: "Some people are not confused."
At this moment, the grass moved, and Lin Ye and Jiang Shengshang looked over at the same time.
A dark figure emerged from the grass, holding a knife in his hand.
"Captain, Colonel, I'm here to let you go."
Li Bufu came towards Lin Ye, and Lin Ye said: "Let the captain go first."
Jiang Shengshang said: "Let's forget it. If you and I leave now, we are deserters. You and I both know how Dayu treats deserters."
At this moment, another black shadow came out from behind the grass.
This man was also wearing a contract soldier uniform, but his face was covered with a black scarf.
Lin Ye immediately shouted: "Li is not convinced, let the captain loose his bonds!"
Li Bufu immediately ran towards Jiang Shengshang. The masked man raised his hand and fired, and the crossbow hit Li Bufu in the back.
Li Bubu fell to the ground, and the crossbow arrow penetrated his body and flew past Jiang Shengshang.
Ying Changtian didn't look at Li Bubu, who fell to the ground, and ignored Jiang Shengshang, and walked straight towards Lin Ye.
He said: "It seems I'm not the only one who wants to kill you."
