Chapter 311 Pushing the door to the demon world
Captain Gurkha shook his head gently and replied: "Sir, it's no problem for me to pretend to be a Gurkha merchant, because I am a Gurkha. But as a merchant, how can I have no goods? I can't go there without hands."
Zhao Xing grinned and said softly: "I have already thought about the goods for you. You are a Gurkha. If you know the guards around me, I believe the Tubo people will not doubt it because they must know that there are Gurkhas around me. And you Gurkhas have had commercial interactions with Tubo people before, so they will not be resistant when they meet you. Well, since you are familiar with my guards, you may get some goods that others cannot get, and know some inside information that others don't know - for example, you got a telescope specially equipped for the guards from me.
On my Guangnan East Road, telescopes are not for sale. Businessmen from other countries have found one, and they take it back to study imitation. However, we only distributed it to officers and scouts, and very few of them leaked out. Because they couldn't get it, the group of people saw the telescopes mysteriously. But it just happened that every Gurkha people here had a telescope on them. We'll get you together, and it would be no problem to get twenty telescopes together.
These telescopes have been used, and only in this way can you be more trustworthy - because you can say that you bought second-hand goods from your fellow villagers. And because this thing is prohibited from exporting, you can only hide a few pairs of them and enter Tubo. In this way, we can even save packaging - because you dare not pack these goods in Guangnan, you can only carry them with you, and hide them and carry them into Tubo.
Of course, you don’t need to tell the Tubo people these things. You must let the Tubo people force you repeatedly to find out your goods and know the truth about them. Then you have to hesitate to tell the Tubo people that these telescopes were ordered by Arabs, because they could not be transported out by sea, so you detoured by land and from Tubo - this is not a perfect explanation of the reason why you appeared on the southern Tubo road.
The Tubo people obtained these telescopes to confirm your relationship with the guards around me. They must want to obtain more military intelligence. In this way, it would be natural for you to reveal something. However, I haven't figured out what kind of information you need to reveal to make the Tubo people risk their lives."
Captain Gurkha whispered: "Sir, when we hunt, there are only two types of baits. One is what wild beasts like to eat the most. The other is what wild beasts fear the most."
Zhao Xing asked in surprise: "What? Can the things that wild beasts fear the most be used as bait?"
The captain replied: "Of course, if we want to hunt antelope, we need to let the antelope move towards the path we hoped. Adults also know that antelope is a very stubborn creature. When they are desperate, it would rather jump off the cliff and die than surrender. So we drip a few drops of mountain wolf urine on the side of the fork road, so that the antelope will look for the road without the smell of mountain wolf. Even if we climb up the cliff, it will be willing to do so."
"It's very inspiring!" Zhao Xing said thoughtfully: "What do the Tubo people like? Gold, silver, jewelry? Beauty? Wild beasts? No, they don't need these, they come for the land.
Do you use the land to tempt them? I'm afraid the temptation will not move. They know that when they stay in the mountains until summer, when they recover their combat effectiveness, the rainy season will soon come and we will be in trouble. Therefore, "waiting" is in their interests, which is the basic policy of their trip. If you want them to give up this square formation and take huge risks to enter the mountains...what kind of temptation should I use?
What is their principle - only when the rainy season can you come out. How should I create conditions? Let them feel that it is unpaid to continue waiting - it is better to tell them that I am building castles and passes at the mountain pass. Will they be worried that we will repair the passes and prevent them from coming out of the mountain, and for this reason, we have to take the risk of sending troops in advance."
Captain Gurkha replied: "Yes, this is a good reason. You cannot run violently between the mountains and canyons. As long as you choose a good terrain for a small castle, it will leave a hundred thousand troops helpless.
This reason also explains the reason why I entered Tubo with a telescope on my back - for example, the owner was at the mountain pass and replaced the Gurkha guards with a batch of better telescopes. These eliminated telescopes were acquired by me, and I planned to bring them into Tubo. Then, from the south of Tubo, return to the Guer Kingdom and return to my hometown... This reason is so wonderful!
I can tell them that you are building a pass, and that place is just one day away from our campsite - I chose the blocking position of Lord Shuai Fan, and the Tubo people also knew where. I said Lord Shuai was building a majestic wall of the position. The Tubo people knew about the Golden Bell Building. Many Tubo merchants had visited the building. They knew that we were good at building majestic buildings. In order to prevent us from building a pass and closed mountain pass, they would definitely venture through that dangerous area.
Master, it's so wonderful. For this reason, they can't let them go. I will pick a few people and walk on torches now. I'll say that I've met five Tubo scouts on the road, so that my words will be more credible."
Zhao Xing shook his head: "It's better to leave at dawn. Let's go together at dawn. I want to build a safe harbor in that avalanche area. Remember the location of my construction. If the Tubo people ask you to lead the way, you will use that safe harbor."
The captain smiled: "Sir, you don't know how terrifying the power of heaven and earth is. When an avalanche occurs, you can even flatten a mountain. Instead of letting you choose a place to build a safe harbor, it's better for me to choose myself...Sir, we Gurkha people live on the mountains and are more familiar with this area. Don't worry, I will definitely return safely."
Zhao Xing thought for a moment, patted the captain's shoulder, lowered his voice and said, "Although I don't know how to choose a safer point, I know how to cause an avalanche. I will go to that area tomorrow morning to lay grenades. When the Tubo army enters, I will detonate the grenades, causing an avalanche.
I would like to give you a suggestion that the rocks that are affected by avalanche are all lined with deep marks. You can choose those rock walls that are not smooth. Even if they are affected by avalanche, the impact will not be very strong... Well, go all the way, I'll wait for you to come back."
Captain Gurkha did not call many people. He only called a soldier to pretend to be a servant. Zhao Xing gave him twenty telescopes and was wrapped in a package and carried them behind his shoulders. Then he greeted the Gurkha soldiers who were pretending to be a servant and set off on a torch.
When Captain Gurkha disappeared at the corner of the mountain, Zhao Xing called the rest of the land to instruct: "Creating an avalanche - a matter of one person. So I can't take so many people. When the rest of the land goes back, I will only leave ten guards. The people who go back tell Lord Shuai the news, and say that I will return immediately after the avalanche."
The Gurkha soldiers didn't say much. They immediately executed the order when they heard the order, showing the good qualities of the world's number one mercenary. After the arrangement, it was already dawn. Zhao Xing left only five soldiers in the tiger's mouth to bury explosives, and he led ten Gurkha soldiers to continue moving forward.
Not to mention the thrillingness of walking through the tiger's mouth, but just turning the tiger's mouth, the mountain has entered another turning point, and the mountain road begins to go downward. It leads directly to a valley between the two mountains. At this time, there is a glacier at the top of the valley. After the snow water on the mountain melts, it rolls into the river with large pieces of ice, causing a stream of half-ice and half-water at the bottom of the ditch to appear. Because the stream has too much ice, the entire stream is white and bright in the sun, and the thorns make people cry.
Zhao Xing narrowed his eyes and looked at the hillside. From time to time, huge icicles fell on the hillside. The falling icicles hit the ice, making a low sound, which triggered a larger-scale fall...
In addition to the rumbling sound of falling to the ground, the entire valley also made a squeaking sound like a ghost cry from time to time. This was the sound of the ice breaking, and it screamed sourly. It seemed as if a monster was waking up, moaning heavily from time to time.
"Is this the 'White Horse'Ice Osaka'? It should be called 'No. 0 Glacier', why did I forget it?" Zhao Xing said to himself thoughtfully.
It is not a complicated matter to cause a large-scale collapse of glaciers. As long as a huge amount of explosives is buried under the slope, the explosion will be 80% sure. To be on the safe side, people should actually climb up to the height of the glacier and break several key parts. This will cause larger glacier cracks... Unfortunately, the current technology cannot be achieved. Because Zhao Xing did not have a remote-controlled detonation device, he personally sent someone up. Those who sent to detonate the explosives will inevitably die.
Squinted his eyes and looked at the mountain pass covered by snow and ice. Zhao Xing suddenly remembered the scene of the explosion of the explosive depot. In the movie, after the explosion, there were ammunitions that exploded. Sometimes the ammunition box raised by the explosion air waves would fly to a height of hundreds of meters, and then ignited by the explosion heat waves, causing a death to explode...
"There is only this. Come and take off all the gunpowder and grenades you carry, put the gunpowder into a package alone, and tie the grenades outside the package... Let's try it, I hope our character is good and can bounce a grenade to a high place and explode. Now, this is the only way for us."
When Zhao Xing narrowed his eyes and looked at the hillside, the Gurkha soldiers had already guessed Zhao Xing's meaning. After all, they were more familiar with the avalanche than Zhao Xing. At this moment, when he heard Zhao Xing's decision, many people breathed a sigh of relief.
However, when the forest is big, there are all kinds of people. There are really one or two fanatical people. They shook their heads and persuaded them: "Master, you often say 'luck is the most unreliable', 'luck only favors those who are ready'... We bury explosives in the middle of the valley, which is not safe in my opinion. We should send a few people to climb to the mountains and bury the explosives in a crack in a glacier so that we can be safe."
Zhao Xing's eyes were irritated by the sun. While wiping his tears, he said with a tragic expression: "It's spring now, and the snow on the mountain has been very loose. Send someone up and add someone's weight to the glacier, which may cause an avalanche in advance.
Besides, there are cracks on the glacier now, and you will fall into the ice crack if you accidentally, and you will never be able to climb out...
In short, this matter is too dangerous, and the unpredictable risks are too great. It is all a gamble on luck. It is better for us to bury explosives in the middle of the mountain road and gamble on our luck."
The Gurkha man who was the first to talk to him threw off his red uniform jacket, snatched the felt bucket from the child who was raising a dog, and said positively: "Master, I am thin and experienced. Please let me go up the hillside-there is a vast white area, and the sun is dazzling. People stay there, put on a gray felt bucket. No one pays attention, and no one will look up the hillside.
I stayed at the explosion site and buried the gunpowder. When the master sent a signal, I would detonate the gunpowder - Master, we must do this. I don’t know how many troops there are behind this glacier. With ten of us, we cannot stop such an army. If we don’t have any adventurous spirit, then we will die in vain if we die today.”
Zhao Xing was silent for a moment and replied: "This is not an adventure, this is definitely dead... OK. What else do you have to ask for? What do you need me to do?"
While taking the gunpowder bag from his companion, the Gurkha soldier replied: "Master, I have no other request. We were all slaves, a group of Gurkha's slaves who were worse than death. Only by following the Master can you live a good life. The Master never beats us and never scolds us, so that we can eat and wear warmth. He also led us to this great country. Now, the enemy's humble boots will trample on this country. We have lived in this beautiful land for many years. We must do something for this land, for you, Master.
We are originally slaves. We have no other place to offer except life. Today, let me dedicate this life to my master. May the eagle in heaven bring my dead soul back to my hometown after my death... I ask my master for permission, and ask my master to allow me to die."
Zhao Xing sighed and waved his hand.
Moved by this man, another Gurkha soldier also jumped out. He took off his red shirt, put only the shirt inside, and tied a few explosives on his body. He stepped forward with the Gurkha soldier who stood out first, and climbed towards the ridges on both sides.
The Gurkha soldiers first stood up and walked a few steps, turned around and grinned at their companions, bared their teeth, and smiled with relief: "I'm very excited, I can't wait."
The Gurkha soldier who stood up later did not speak, and he also showed an excited smile on his face, waved his hand to his companion forcefully. Then he began to climb Ice Osaka.
The eight Gurkha soldiers who remained in the same place did not dare to cry loudly. They knelt on the ground with tears in tears, their lips squirming silently and singing the song of the eagle that could not be sung. They saw the two heroes off for the two heroes, and the two heroes were very careful when they walked on the ground. They often moved for a long time. Zhao Xing knew that they were looking for a place to settle down with their rich experience.
It was noon and the two climbed to the middle of the mountain. At this time, Zhao Xing had already discovered from the telescope that there were many black spots appearing in the entire Osaka-the Tubo brigade was coming.
"It's coming so fast!" Zhao Xing muttered softly.
The Tubo people did not stop because it was dark and early in the mountains. If they could not get out of the tiger's mouth in the evening, they would have to camp in this dangerous glacier valley. Zhao Xing saw through the telescope. Although he noticed that there was someone here, the Tubo soldiers did not stop for a moment. They walked directly into the valley, their formation was very wide, and they moved towards Zhao Xing with slight steps.
Walking in the front was the Gurkha captain. Zhao Xing strangely discovered that the same happy smile appeared on the other party's face. He walked along the way, looking at the sky, the sun, and the clouds all the way, as if he wanted to deeply engrave everything in front of him in his mind. It was not until this time that Zhao Xing remembered that what he was about to cause was an ice collapse, not an avalanche.
There is a possibility of avalanches, but there is no way to avoid the ice collapse. The collapsed ice Osaka is like a big mountain collapses. Wherever the ice peak goes, it can move a small hill. With such power, there is no rock to stop it. No rock can stop it. No even hard rock will be flattened by the ice peak.
Yes, when the Gurkha captain walked through this dangerous valley, he had already discovered the problem, but he still refused. Now, he walked towards Zhao Xing with a gratified smile on his face. The smile became bigger and bigger in the telescope, and he could clearly count each eyebrow.
The eight people Zhao Xing stood at the tiger's mouth, but did not surprise the Tubo people. They walked without stopping, each of them tightly closed their mouths, and the accompanying pack horses and yaks walked silently when they walked, like a silent army of zombies.
Zhao Xing moved the telescope to the yak's hooves and found that the beasts were covered with thick felt cloth on their feet. As for the Tubo soldiers, they bowed and tried to move forward in the posture of cat steps. At the front, they saw that Zhao Xing's Tubo soldiers had begun to take down their bows and arrows and were ready to shoot here.
Zhao Xing's order was not issued for a long time, and Captain Gurkha couldn't help it. He turned around and looked at the tail of the team, and suddenly sang the song of the Eagle at the top of his voice. But after only two lyrics, several Tubo soldiers around him had already rushed up and pressed him to the ground.
Captain Gurkha twisted his body as hard as possible, singing intermittently, so that the singing sounded like a sob. The Tubo soldiers behind him did not dare to run, so they could only try their best to speed up.
The two Gurkha soldiers beside Zhao Xing pulled Zhao Xing's sleeves hard and begged: "Master, please give the order!"
Zhao Xing shook his head calmly: "It's not enough. Since I have sacrificed the four most loyal guards, I have to earn a little more. It's not enough. Shoot with a crossbow, tangle with them for a while, and try to let more Tubo soldiers enter the valley."
The Gurkha soldiers shook their heads and continued to persuade: "Sir, our crossbows cannot be shot at this distance, but when they come to the front, our crossbows are useless because there are too many people and our crossbows are too troublesome to hang their strings - Sir, they will overwhelm us, please give orders."
Without hesitation, Zhao Xing raised the red tops left and right ridges with his hands, shook them twice above his head, and threw the two clothes underground. As the action ended, "boomed", one side of the ridge exploded.
When the first explosion sounded, everyone was in a daze. Zhao Xing first reacted. He turned around and ran, shouting, "Run quickly!"
The awakened servant Gurkha also hurriedly ran with Zhao Xing. At this time, the second explosion sounded.
