It was already four times, and everything was silent.

Since I guessed that the official army would crash into the trap they set up tomorrow, and a big battle was about to occur, and the thieves in Erlong Mountain were all trying to rest and regain their energy. Therefore, except for a few guards on the stone mountains on both sides, the others had already found a place to sleep with cats. And those guards were actually not much different from blinding their eyes. After all, on this dark and windy night, their sight could only take care of a distance from the previous ones.

As for their backs, they were even less valued. You should know that the cliff behind Dongshikun was almost no way to pass. They all climbed up from below the valley. It was not too much to say a natural danger behind them, so how could someone sneak up? And it was even more difficult to do this in the late night.

But some changes happened due to negligence. At this time, behind the stone mountain, only dozens of feet away from these ambushers, five or six elite scout camps with strong and shoulder ropes kept approaching under the guidance of Shi Qian. At this time, they could vaguely hear the snoring from above, which made everyone more alert and their movements lighter: "There are indeed ambushers on the top. If the Duguan had not been on guard early in the morning and were carelessly entering the Dongshijiu after dawn..." Thinking of the possible consequences, many people shivered.

Shi Qian glanced at them, waved his hand and stopped their actions, then he lowered his voice and ordered: "You wait here first, and when I go up first, I will throw down the ropes. It will be easier for you to go up then."

These brothers in the scout camp have seen the lightness of their captains, so they all nodded, then took out the crossbow and aimed upwards to prevent Shi Qian from encountering any accidents during the process of going up the mountain. In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the scout camp, Sun Tu has handed them all the crossbows seized from Baihu Mountain to them for use. At least before being able to mass-made crossbows, this is the special weapon for the soldiers of the scout camp.

Shi Qian no longer delayed it. He took two steps back and rushed up quickly. When he arrived in front of the stone mountain, the man had already jumped up, and his hands were pressed up, and his body had risen a lot out of thin air. The steep and rugged mountain walls on this side were natural barriers for many people, but in Shi Qian's eyes, which were both hands and feet, it was not much different from the smooth road. In just a short while, he had risen four or five feet high. If there weren't enemies on the top of him at this time, I'm afraid that these subordinates would applaud him at this time.

However, after climbing up for about ten feet quickly, Shi Qian's movements finally slowed down. Because the higher he went, the fewer the protruding stones that could allow him to leverage his strength. It would be too difficult to get up with his bare hands at the next ten feet.

Shi Qian was already focused on scanning the surroundings, looking for any position where he could use force to move upwards. Sometimes because the distance between the two points was too large, he had to risk jumping over a distance of about one zhang to find a new place to settle down. But when he rose two or three zhang, there was no such point of borrowing. It was almost impossible to look up.

Although due to the sky and distance, the people below could no longer see Shi Qian's actions clearly at this time, and only saw a blurry black dot jumping around there, the more this happened, the more shocked it was, and they all sweated coldly for Shi Qian. If they accidentally made a mistake, or if they were heard by the thieves on the mountain at this time, Shi Qian, who was in such a dangerous situation, would be dead and lifeless.

At this moment, he had been staying at 17 or 8 feet long, and obviously could not find any climbing point, he suddenly jumped high, and the man had completely escaped from the range of the cliff, which was so dangerous that these scout camp masters who had taken risks everywhere in the deep mountains and forests almost screamed out.

Just when everyone was shocked and felt that Shi Qian was seeking death, his body that was about to fall was swinging his arms because he had run out of his leaping momentum and suddenly paused. Then, the person began to rise slowly, but this time he didn't even need a point to borrow strength.

After a moment of stunned silence, everyone wiped away the cold sweat on their foreheads, and at the same time they thought about the reason - obviously, Shi Qian shot out the unique rope that had been hidden in his sleeves at that moment and hooked a certain place above. That was the method he used to steal in Qingzhou City that day. If Sun Tu and his friends had not taken action several times later, they would have really let him escape.

This is true. The black rope that Shi Qian hid in his sleeve was secretly made. Although it was only the thickness of a finger, it was extremely resilient. In addition, his light body skills could really make him fly over the eaves and walk around the wall. Just now, seeing that there was no way out, he simply took a gamble and aimed at a small tree on the top of the mountain and wrapped it around. Only then could he use the force to get on. This is thanks to his rope long enough, otherwise this trick might not be easy to use.

But in this way, some noise finally happened. Not only did the small tree sway and sway, but the raised stones on the stone wall that he had just stepped on with force also fell down, and a squeaking sound fell, which seemed particularly harsh in the quiet night now.

The soldiers of the scout camp at the foot of the mountain were shocked, but they really couldn't see the situation above. The bandits above were also alarmed at this time, and several people came to the rear to check the situation vigilantly. However, this was the darkest time before dawn, and they did not dare to light a fire or something to expose themselves, so this investigation really failed to find anything.

Someone even laughed: "Gao, what can you see? If someone really can climb up from the back mountain, he will be a god. It should be that the wind blows the stones down to cause such movement. Don't be suspicious."

Hearing this, he knew that someone came from the back mountain was a fantasy, so he laughed and scolded: "I just think I should be careful and I want you to be troubled." Then he turned back.

Not long after he walked back, Shi Qian had quietly risen from the cliff. After taking a peek at the surrounding terrain, he quickly tied the long rope on his back to a slightly inner boulder. Then, he shook his hand and threw the rope, which was more than 30 feet long, off the mountain.

At this time, there were one or two hundred people at the foot of the mountain. These people suddenly appeared and really scared the scouts. They didn't feel relieved until the other party revealed that they were soldiers of the second battalion of A and B. They still asked, "Why are you here too?"

"We are ordered by the governor of the capital to seize the mountain here. In this way, our official army will be the one who has the advantage of the geographical advantage. Moreover, with you above, we should be able to go up safely."

While he was talking, Shi Qian threw down the rope. After the scouts hesitated, they recognized the change and immediately ordered others to wait at the foot of the mountain first, while they would climb up along the rope one by one.

For these scouts who are used to walking on the mountain road, as long as there is a rope, this cliff is really not a problem. However, when the soldiers carefully selected from the two battalions saw the steep and towering cliff, many people swallowed nervously. It was not easy to climb up in the dark.

The people went up one by one, but their movements were not as light and skillful as Shi Qian. After a while, a few small stones were touched and fell down. Although the movement was not as big as before, it was enough to make the night watchmen above a little alert: "What's wrong with this tonight? They actually came back with a continuous sound. Could it be that the government army really came from the back mountain?"

Just as someone was planning to go back and see what happened, a scream came from the front: "Look at where... the government army actually chose to send troops at this time?"

The scream immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the mountain, and he didn't care about the little change behind him. Everyone stood up and looked at the east end of the valley. Just as they saw dozens or hundreds of torches suddenly lit up, and then a team of officials were coming quickly towards this side. Judging from this posture, he actually planned to pass through the Dongshihu before dawn!

"How could the government army make such an arrangement? Don't they know that the night marching is more dangerous and will the damage be heavier if they are ambushed?" Han Benshan frowned on the other side of the mountain and muttered to himself, but he was already a little uneasy.

"We can't care about so much. As long as they dare to enter the valley, as long as they have a brigade enter, we will do it!" The leader of Erlongshan commanding here immediately bit his teeth, "Everyone moves the stone over and follows my orders!"

The speed of the official army was much faster than before. The genius was just dawning, and the team had already arrived at the entrance of the valley. Then the army suddenly stopped castrating and sent a team of more than a dozen cavalrymen to gallop towards the western exit.

After the team passed by safely and shook the flag three miles away to show safety, the team slowly began to walk into the East Shigu.

Seeing this scene, the eyes of the bandits of Erlong Mountain on both sides flashed with excitement. The enemy had fallen into the trap. The next time was when they showed their skills and buried them all in Dongshikun.

Just as they were fully focused on this official army brigade, more than a hundred soldiers had already touched them silently behind the stone mountain on the south side. It was not completely silent, but under the restlessness of the officials and horses at the entrance of the Kuo Valley, the noise they made had long been ignored.

At this time, the elite soldiers in the army also knew why the brothers below took such a risk. They were covering themselves, which made these people feel very uneasy. After confirming that the people going up the mountain were no longer under the other party, the sky finally became clear. Zhou Xing, the leader, waved his hand and ordered without hesitation: "Brothers, kill!"

At the same time, the bandits on both sides also moved the stones in front of them and smashed them hard towards the officials in the valley under the command of their respective leaders.

The battle broke out in an instant...
