Chapter 70 Trapped on the Peak
After lit the torch, everyone walked in the rugged mountains. In addition, it was not easy to walk on the road. Qian Xiaoxing asked: "How far is the Yijiu tribe here? Also, tell me about the situation of the Yijiu tribe."
Xia Tichang replied: "There are more than twenty miles of mountain roads here. The Yijiu tribe is slightly smaller than the Yi mother tribe, and there are about a thousand strong soldiers. However, they are not matriarchal clans. Their tribes are barbaric by nature. When someone dies, the meat of the dead will be shared and eaten."
Qian Xiaoxing was shocked after hearing this. If Yi Hongyue had a short and long distance, she wouldn't even be able to find her body. Xia Tichang continued: "For a long time, the Yi Mother tribe and the Yi Jiu tribe occasionally had friction due to their territory, but the scale was not large and they were still stable in normal times. I really didn't expect that they would invade my Yi Mother tribe this time."
"We must be tempted by cherishing it with benefits. Okay, let's hurry up and strive to arrive at the Yijiu tribe before dawn." After Qian Xiaoxing said that, everyone accelerated their speed and walked through the dark mountains.
After walking for more than ten miles, Qian Xiaoxing suddenly smelled a smell of oil, and grabbed Xia Ti and asked: "Are you coming soon? Why does it smell like oil here?"
Xia Ti Chang pointed to the front and said, "It's just here, the smell of oil may be because there is an oil pool nearby."
Qian Xiaoxing took the torch in confusion and looked at the ground, then picked up the soles of the shoes and smelled it. Seeing that some black oil was already stained with the bottom, a smell came to his face. His eyes suddenly looked like torches, staring at Xia Tichang and asked, "What are you telling the truth?"
Xia Tichang's face was panicked and explained: "It may be that someone spilled it on the road when he took oil."
"Scattered on the road? Why are there trees on both sides?" Qian Xiaoxing grabbed Xia Tichang and asked, "Who are you!"
"The villain was really sent by the patriarch," Xia Tichang took advantage of Qian Xiaoxing's distracting moment and drove Qian Xiaoxing's hand back and ran away. He whistled along the way!
"Xu--" A loud whistle sounded, and there were fires on both sides of the road. Qian Xiaoxing immediately shouted: "No, I am ambushed, retreat quickly!"
Torches on both sides of the road were thrown down, touching the ground and trees, and immediately burning. Because they found out in time, Qian Xiaoxing and others did not completely penetrate the encirclement. Everyone retreated quickly and were not surrounded by the fire.
Seeing many torches flashing in the woods on both sides running towards here, Qian Xiaoxing ordered: "Hu Suoyuan, immediately lead a few people to cut off the rear and use oil refining bombs to block the pursuers."
"Yes!" Hu Suoyuan immediately led more than ten people over, but seeing that this place was an open woodland, it was not easy to block the pursuers with fire. After throwing a few refining bombs, he slowly retreated, hoping to find a suitable position to block the attack.
Qian Xiaoxing didn't have time to think about the causes and consequences of the ambush in the middle, and only knew to retreat quickly. The mountain road was bumpy and dark again, and everyone was not retreating quickly. Seeing the enemy in the distance, he walked around the blockade of Hu Suoyuan and others with a torch, and then quickly leaned over. After a rough look, the number of people was at least more than one hundred.
If you return the same way, you will definitely be caught up by them. Qian Xiaoxing saw the hillside next to him and said, "Everyone goes up the mountain!"
Everyone supported each other and climbed to the top of the mountain. When Hu Suoyuan saw that the location was narrow, he immediately ordered the soldiers to drop a row of refining bombs and block the pursuers.
Everyone climbed halfway up the mountain and was panting. Qian Xiaoxing turned around and saw a fire at the bottom of the mountain, blocking the torches at the foot of the mountain, and breathed a little relieved.
At the foot of the mountain, the Yijiu soldiers who had just ambushed were holding torches. The bright colors on their faces were even more strange under the fire. When they saw the fire blocking the road in front of them, Wu Yirui, the leader of the Yijiu tribe, grabbed Xia Tichang angrily and asked: "Banana, you bala, why did you tell you? Let them enter the encirclement and whistle again. They blew before they even entered. Do you think I would eat you raw?"
Xia Tichang said in panic: "Your life is good, but I didn't expect Qian Xiaoxing to be very smart. He became alert when he smelled the smell of oil. I won't blow anymore, I'm afraid they will all run away."
"I'll settle the score with you when I go back!" Wu Yirui let go of Xia Tichang and said, "The fire is blocking the road. If they are asked to run away, they won't get the money!"
Xia Tichang hurriedly came up and said, "King, this mountain is a lonely peak, and the back is a cliff. As long as we surround the mountain, Qian Xiaoxing will have no place to run away. Moreover, I don't think we have to surround it anymore. If the fire burns up, they can burn them alive."
Wu Yirui kicked Xia Tichang's butt and said, "Then I won't do it. If they run away, you don't want to live!"
"Yes! Yes." Xia Tichang hurriedly led a group of people to surround the mountain.
Looking at the blazing fire, Qian Xiaoxing immediately exclaimed and said, "No, the fire is going to burn ourselves to death."
Seeing this, Hu Suoyuan also had a cold sweat on his face and said apologetically: "Chief of Staff, it's all my fault. I didn't think so much in a hurry. What should I do?"
"Cut out the fire belt immediately to stop the fire from spreading." Qian Xiaoxing ordered.
Hu Suoyuan asked in confusion: "What, what is a fire belt?"
"It is to cut out a one-to-two-meter-wide isolation belt on the mountainside to cut off these shrubs, and the fire naturally cannot spread. We can arrange for people to disperse it." After Qian Xiaoxing said that, he also took out his long sword and joined the team.
Fortunately, the shrubs on the mountainside were not tall, and they could basically be cut off with one sword. More than 30 people started cutting off quickly. Some long swords were cut off with their hands and teeth, and they cleaned the shrubs one by one.
It was getting bright and the fire spread to the fire zone. A burst of thick smoke and high temperature made everyone retreat. Qian Xiaoxing saw that the fire was basically controlled by the fire zone. Occasionally, Mars came up and immediately sent people to extinguish it.
Finally, the fire below gradually decreased, and only blue smoke came out in some places. Everyone was choked and coughed. They immediately ran to the leeward to sit down and rested.
Shi Yeying's hair was a little messy, and she seemed a little tired when she walked overnight. She asked, "Di Xing, it turns out that Xia Tichang, who reported the news, was actually a traitor."
Si Yingying said: "Yes, fortunately Brother Xing discovered it in time, otherwise we would probably have to burn it there. How did you discover it?"
"I am the best at fire attack. If I want to burn me, I will naturally be more careful. Although I have escaped for the time being, we are still trapped on the mountain by them, and the situation is not optimistic." Qian Xiaoxing said worriedly.
Hu Suoyuan came over and said, "This Xia Tichang didn't show that she was a traitor at all. Damn, if I caught him, I would have to castrate him. Let's see if his lower body still grows!"
Qian Xiaoxing sighed, "I didn't expect that the enemy could design such a trap, which almost made everyone die. Now that our rescue plan has failed, it is even more difficult to rescue Hongyue. She is still pregnant, so I'm so worried about what will happen to her."
"Chief of Staff, what should I do next?" Hu Suoyuan asked.
Qian Xiaoxing thought for a moment and said, "When the fire is extinguished, they will go up the mountain to encircle us. The weapons we carry are limited. Everyone finds some big stones and sharp wooden sticks to prepare to face the enemy."
"Okay, I'll arrange for everyone to prepare now." Hu Suoyuan said and stepped down.
At the foot of the mountain, Wu Yirui, the leader of the Yijiu tribe, saw that the smoke on the mountain slowly retreated, but the top of the mountain was still green, and cursed: "Banana, you bara, you can't even burn them to death. Let's go to me together. I will have a lot of reward when I catch Qian Xiaoxing." After that, about one hundred soldiers below each held their spears and touched the top of the mountain.
Looking at the enemies coming up from the mountain, Qian Xiaoxing ordered: "Wait until you get closer and fight, give them some colors."
Hu Suoyuan said from the side: "Chief of Staff, there are very few stones that can be moved on the mountain, what should I do?"
"Ah!" Qian Xiaoxing didn't expect the plan to fail, so he raised his long sword and said, "It seems that he can only fight with them."
Shi Yeying summoned Hong Xing and Hongwang over and said, "You two personally protect him."
The two hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, then please be careful by yourself."
Seeing that the distance was about the same, Qian Xiaoxing pointed to the sword and said, "Arrow!"
Condescending, feather arrows shot out one after another, and Shi Yeying even made perfect arrows. dozens of people from the Yijiu tribe fell down immediately. Seeing this, Wu Yirui immediately shouted: "Everyone is down, go and get the shield, and call two hundred people to come and help."
Seeing that there was no target, Shi Yeying lowered the bow and arrow and said to Qian Xiaoxing: "Do you want to rush down now? When there are too many people around, we can't run away."
Qian Xiaoxing replied: "How far can we run? If we break through now, even if we can break out of the encirclement, we will still not be able to get rid of the pursuit."
"Then will we just wait for death?" Shi Yeying asked back.
"At present, we can only wait and hope our reinforcements will arrive soon." Qian Xiaoxing said helplessly.
Shi Yeying had no choice but to say, "Okay, even if we die, we will die together."
"How could I die easily before I had a bridal chamber with you? Don't worry, we can at least resist it for a long time," Qian Xiaoxing replied.
"Well, I'll prepare more bows and arrows." After saying that, Shi Yeying looked for the trees with straight stalks and sharpened her head to use them as bows and arrows.
At the foot of the mountain, a shield was sent, and more than 200 people came, and they started climbing up again. Qian Xiaoxing ordered: "Don't shoot arrows, save weapons, take out refining bombs, and wait for my order."
Wu Yirui laughed at the foot of the mountain, so what if there is a bow and arrow? He took the shield and the bow and arrow were no longer threatening. He was thinking happily, but he saw a fire ignited on the hillside. Many soldiers were covered with flames and rolled down the mountain in fright. They were not burned to death and were thrown to death.
"Damn it," Wu Yirui couldn't help but curse, "Carry sandbags for me to put out the fire, I'll see how much oil they have."
The Yijiu tribe quickly brought sandbags, and some soldiers climbed up with sandbags on their backs. The trees on the mountain were burned out, so the fire of refining bombs was not big. Under the cover of the shield, the soldiers sprinkled sand to put out the fire.
"Refining bomb!" Qian Xiaoxing ordered.
"Chief of Staff, there is no refining bomb." Hu Suoyuan replied helplessly.
"Poison gas bomb!" Qian Xiaoxing ordered again.
"Yes!" Hu Suoyuan ordered everyone to drop poison gas bombs, and a white mist suddenly popped out of the soldiers of the Yijiu clan, which made everyone retreat continuously.
Wu Yirui saw the white fog in the mountainside, and as the mountain wind drifted everywhere, the soldiers retreated helplessly and said, "This Qian Xiaoxing has so many flower heads, what are those white fogs?"
Xia Tichang came over and replied, "Master, there are some lime powder and chili powder, which makes everyone unable to open their eyes, but as long as we sprinkle them with water, they will not be able to float up."
"Okay," Wu Yirui said on Xia Tichang's butt: "Then why don't you do it now!"
