"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Gongshu Lin turned around and glanced at the depths of the forest on his left.
He felt that there was a pair of prying eyes!
"Sect Master Gongshu, what's wrong?"
Zhao Linwu acutely sensed that Gongshu Lin's expression was a little different.
Gongshu Lin did not answer. He raised his right arm slightly, and the Godly Zhuge Crossbow was fixed to it. As long as the mechanism was pressed, the arrow could be fired at any time.
"Enemies?"
Zhao Linwu's pupils constricted, and his expression changed slightly.
He didn't dare to make a sound. His eyes quickly looked around, and his mind became tense!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
A soft sound came from the direction Gongshu Lin was staring at.
"As expected!"
"Enemy attack!"
Zhao Linwu shouted.
"What?"
Meng Tian's expression changed drastically. She turned around and followed Gongshu Lin's gaze. She quickly looked into the depths of the forest and drew her bronze sword from her waist. Her gaze became extremely sharp.
There was no need for orders!
A group of cavalrymen quickly approached.
Bit by bit, they approached the forest ahead.
"Surround!"
Meng Tian said calmly.
The cavalrymen spread out and surrounded the area in front of them, gradually shrinking the area they surrounded.
Finally!
He could only find some shallow footprints on the spot. Other than that, there was nothing else.
"There was someone here just now!"
After Meng Tian checked, her expression became even more solemn.
What if!
If they had fallen into the trap just now, did it mean that the people hiding here would make a move?
He thought about it.
Meng Tian shuddered!
Although there were only a few people here, they had witnessed everything that they had done. With so many enemies in the dark, even Meng Tian felt that it was a little troublesome.
"General…"
The deputy general quickly approached, his expression heavy.
" He's already gone. Let's continue forward!"
Meng Tian shouted loudly.
He put away his sword and returned to the back of his horse. He led the three thousand cavalry through the area of traps and continued to advance at full speed!
"I didn't chase after him blindly…"
"As expected of the commander of the Empire's most elite cavalry!”
Gongshu Lin looked at Meng Tian's back and praised her.
Meng Tian was a very strong commander!
Although he would occasionally be careless, he was still very experienced.
If he had chased blindly just now, the greatest possibility was that he would not even be able to touch the other party's back.
Other than that.
There was also the possibility that this was a trap.
Therefore…
It was very irrational to blindly chase after the enemy.
……
Hualala!
The waterfall flowed down three thousand feet.
At the edge of the pond.
The reins of the horses were tied to the tree trunk, and they lowered their heads to eat the grass.
Hundreds of people stayed here to rest.
Most of them were men wearing ordinary robes. They looked like commoners, but their movements were very crisp and agile. Clearly, they were not as simple as they looked.
"Uncle, father, can the trap we set up earlier really stop the Qin army?”
A young man raised his head, revealing a pair of spirited eyes. His tender face was filled with determination that was completely inconsistent with his age.
"Shaoyu, you have to know that we are constantly being harassed by pursuers. The only way is to turn the passive into the active. "They think that we are a group of weak remnants, so we will use this to attack them.”
"Naturally, with our current overall strength, it is impossible for us to meet them head-on. "But it's also because of this that we've greatly weakened their defenses against us!”
"Thus, we only need to leave a few traps to effectively stop their pursuit. Moreover, they could kill many Qin soldiers.”
A white-haired old man stroked his beard and explained with a smile.
He was full of confidence!
At the side.
A middle-aged man smiled and said," Mister Fan Zeng is right. Shaoyu, why do you need to practice martial arts when you have time? The most important thing is to spend more time learning the art of war."”
This middle-aged man was called Xiang Liang!
The white-haired old man was the strategist of the remnants of the Chu State, Fan Zeng!
That youth was naturally Xiang Shaoyu, who had the remaining royal bloodline of the Chu Country!
"The art of war is too unfamiliar and difficult to comprehend. I'm more suited to practicing martial arts than thinking about these strategies. It's too nerve-racking.”
Xiang Shaoyu said with a smile.
Ta Ta Ta Ta!
Light footsteps came from behind.
"You're back?" Fan Zeng stroked his beard and smiled.”
"Young Master, General Xiang, Mister Fan Zeng…"
The faces of the young men were slightly pale, and their breathing was a little messy.
"I'm not asking you to stay behind to cover the rear, but to see if the pursuers following the Qin army will fall into any traps. What happened over there?"
Xiang Liang frowned slightly and asked directly.
"All the traps have been cleared!”
The young men's lips trembled as they reported the truth.
" What?!"
Xiang Liang's pupils constricted as he cried out involuntarily.
At the side.
Fan Zeng's smile disappeared and became slightly stiff. He asked,""Tell me in detail."
"We saw all the traps with our own eyes. The Qin army noticed all of them and cleared them on the spot. In other words, the Qin army did not lose a single soldier throughout the entire process!”
"And the trap we set up was instantly disintegrated!”
After listening to the young men's words.
The atmosphere at the scene became a little strange.
Silence!
Xiang Liang opened his mouth and was speechless. His eyes were filled with fear.
The trap had been removed?
Furthermore!
They didn't even lose a single soldier?
Didn't this mean…
They had spent so much effort to set up this trap. It was just a waste of time!
"This, this is impossible!"
Fan Zeng couldn't help but blurt out.
"Father."
Xiang Shaoyu looked worried.
"We saw it with our own eyes. If you're lying, we'll die for you. In addition, the Qin army's pursuers have already caught up to us.”
The young men continued.
"Mr. Fan Zeng, the most important thing now is to think about how to escape. As for the trap, let it go.”
Xiang Liang could not help but advise.
As the instigator of the trap, Fan Zeng's confidence was naturally showing signs of collapse. He was extremely confident that the trap could at least hold the Qin army back.
However, the result was unexpected.
The traps couldn't even interfere with the Qin army.
This was too hard to accept!
" Who is it?!"
Fan Zeng's throat was dry. He quickly asked," To be able to break the trap without wasting a single soldier, there must be a master among this group of pursuing Qin soldiers!”
"Yes, it was a very young man. He commanded the entire process. We witnessed with our own eyes that under his command, all the traps were broken one by one!”
The three young men pondered and hesitated for a moment before reporting truthfully.
"A very young expert?”
Fan Zeng's eyes were dull.
The trap he had set up was actually destroyed by a young man who had just grown up?
How could he endure this!
