Then Guo Jing's team continued to move forward.
Because of the impact of the two events just now, these people divided into two teams that were no more than a few dozen meters apart and moved forward. And each team was divided into two groups again, moving forward side by side.
And because of this lesson, Guo Jing seemed to know the principle of putting people first. Even if some people were a little uneasy, he still asked a few soldiers to open the way in front, and each of them held a spear in his hand.
This method seemed a bit alarming, and even slowed down the march, but the journey continued for several miles without anything happening. And with the use of this method, more than ten traps were broken along the way, and they were all fatal traps.
Seeing that these various traps were ineffective, Guo Jing looked at his men and horses, but almost lost one-third of their combat effectiveness, because it was not only time-consuming but also exhausting.
Standing on the branch of a huge camphor tree, Guo Jing looked forward with a rare smile on his face. He gestured slightly to Tieniu beside him. This Tieniu was considered a sensible person. He slightly raised his fists and saluted. He grabbed a long vine next to the tree trunk and swung his body to the best position in front of him in an instant.
Dozens of special warriors stood under the tree next to Guo Jing. They stood in different places, ready to attack at any time, and they could also protect Guo Jing on the tree.
Because Zheng Tuo didn't mean to warn him along the way, Guo Jing, who got to know Zheng Tuo better and better, naturally knew that there wouldn't be any big problems.
But when he just arrived here, Zheng Tuo suddenly had some hints for himself. Although there was still no prompt to speak, Guo Jing understood that there must be different dangers ahead. Although he didn't order everyone at this time, he made everyone stop in time.
"General, there's an ambush ahead!" Tieniu came back quickly. Because he had been at the border for a long time and had learned some theories in the military academy, he went to check and quickly came back to report: "The enemy is hiding on both sides. In the woods, if there is a strong bow, it may pose a great threat to the brothers!"
After hearing Tieniu's analysis, the people on the side listened attentively, and then looked at Guo Jing, obviously waiting for Guo Jing's instructions.
"Well! Tieniu, you and the twenty brothers with vests, go directly from this main road to clear the way!" Looking at their motionless calmness, Guo Jing suddenly looked at Tieniu coldly, and then his eyelids trembled slightly. : "The other two teams are outflanking, let's teach them a lesson first!"
On the high rocks, Guo Jing used small stones to place a simple diagram, and then said to everyone: "Everyone, please be alert. Let's gather under the big maple tree in front!"
"Set off!"
Following the order, the people on both sides quickly separated and dodged into the woods. Watching his companions disappear quickly, more than twenty people led by Tieniu were all guards wearing protective vests. They were considered to be Guo Jing's personal bodyguards. They knew that the mission they had accepted was a narrow escape, but none of them changed color on their faces.
Dozens of soldiers stood beside Guo Jing. These were also people who had been following Guo Jing for a long time. There was even some envy on their faces, because they knew that Guo Jing would not harm these people, but instead gave them the task of luring the snake out of its hole because of their trust.
As a person who wants to make achievements, he must be prepared on the battlefield. As the soldiers on both sides disappeared one after another, there were only fifty special warriors left behind. Everyone watched quietly. These people who were about to move forward actually felt majestic and high-spirited at this moment.
On the contrary, some of the remaining people were She Bozi's disciples. Regardless of whether these people were protecting She Bozi or their fighting ability was not as good as other disciples, they did not follow the teams on both sides just now.
Because Guo Jing has already said that those who are not good at mountain fighting can only learn and observe at first. Of course, those who are not even capable of fighting can only temporarily stand in a safe position, waiting to clear the way and be protected.
When Tieniu waved the sword in his hand and led everyone forward, the path was already overgrown with weeds and it was almost impossible to tell the way forward. But not far after traveling, everyone felt something was wrong.
Because the woods on both sides are exceptionally quiet. Although there are towering trees, there are also many shrubs in the woods. Everyone looked over from a distance, obviously sensing something.
Whoosh!
A sound like the sun breaking through the clouds quickly shot out from the woods. Although it carries a whistling sound, it also carries a life-threatening cold light. It seems that as long as there is a slight negligence, the life will be taken away by this cold light.
A feather arrow hit the tree trunk only two or three centimeters in front of Tieniu. If he hadn't actively leaned back half a body when he heard the sound, he would have been penetrated by the feather arrow at this moment.
"Enemy attack!"
From the moment they were attacked, the warriors who were disturbed at the same time immediately stood up and brandished their swords. While using the trees around him as cover, he took the opportunity to quickly rush to both sides.
Before they could enter the woods on either side, they heard a shout from the woods, and then there was the sound of weapons connecting.
Tieniu didn't mean to show weakness at all. Although he was a little frightened in his heart, he quickly exchanged glances with several of his companions, and then rushed into the woods on the right. Then someone rushed out, carrying weapons and armor, obviously an organized team. Although I don’t know how many people there were, the shouts gradually became louder.
It was obvious that both sides were at war. Looking at the clothes of these people, it was obvious that they were the current generals of this Chu land. Sure enough, these people had an ambush. Although I don't know if they were deliberately targeting them, they were at least guarding against themselves.
Guo Jing, who was standing at a high place, naturally saw all this. Although it is a bit vague, the people under his command are basically in groups of three, and they have their own rules for self-defense and against the enemy. As long as they don't get confused, they should be able to stand up quickly.
Moreover, these soldiers who fought bloody battles, after facing their opponents through the baptism of blood, showed no mercy or mercy at all. What's more, during this trip to Shaozhou, everyone knew that they had a difficult task, so as the vanguard at this time, they spared no effort.
Although the battle situation on both sides is unclear, after nearly two years of fighting, he is now considered a master, not to mention good at leading soldiers in close combat. Seeing the faint scenes from both sides, he knows that this is for his own people. , just showing off his skills to fight with the opponent on the ground.
