Chapter 234
Yangtou Village, a very ordinary village in the southern courtyard of Liang State, at least from the outside, there is nothing unusual.
If there is no special situation, no one will pay attention to such a small and broken village, but today, an unusual scene happened in Yangtou Village.
The Han cavalry under Wei Qing attacked all the way, and immediately moved the battlefield after capturing the city.
Today, the Han cavalry sent out several scouts on the way, and one of them did not return, which attracted Wei Qing's attention.
Afterwards, Wei Qing immediately sent people to search in the direction where the scouts disappeared, and finally found this seemingly ordinary Yangtou Village.
"General, according to the traces, our people disappeared here."
"However, I have observed for a long time. This is an ordinary village. The villagers are mainly old, young, women and children. It is impossible for them to cause harm to our people."
"It's just that I am sure that our people disappeared here after investigation. I don't know the situation now."
It is impossible for an ordinary village to fight against the elite Han cavalry. Moreover, this is wartime. Scouting is not a secret operation. Each group has dozens of people. It is not possible for ordinary people to capture them without leaving any traces.
Wei Qing did not speak, but observed the situation in Yangtou Village.
The location of Yangtou Village can be said to be an ideal place for military strategists. There are hills on both sides that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they are as high as 100 meters.
As long as there are people stationed on it and some bows and crossbows are arranged at the same time, it will pose a great threat to the front. Don't think about attacking without more than ten times the force.
Behind it is a forest. The specific scale is not known for the time being, but by visual observation, the forest here covers a large area.
If there were soldiers hidden in it, there might be tens of thousands of troops.
Of course, this was Wei Qing's military perspective. Otherwise, this place would be a great place to live.
In this era of constant war, it would be nice to have such a place to escape the war.
"General, should we send someone to check the hills on both sides and the forest behind?"
If there is a problem here, there must be traces in these two places.
"No, this place is not ordinary. Look, although there are trees on the hills on both sides, there are many traces of human activities. There must be people going up there from time to time, and there are quite a few people."
Wei Qing looked carefully and soon found the suspicious points.
It is impossible for a village full of old and young people to have so many people going up the mountain frequently. Even if there are wild animals on the mountain, they cannot be concentrated on the top of the mountain.
This can only mean one thing, there are people defending on the top. Wei Qing guessed that this was a frontal observation, and there must be some arrangements behind the mountain.
"Order the army to come and be ready to fight at any time."
Wei Qing did not act rashly, as he still did not know the details of Yangtou Village.
Soon, 100,000 Han cavalry arrived in battle formation and occupied the front of Yangtou Village, ready to attack at any time.
The changes outside were naturally discovered by Yangtou Village. Not long after, an old man, supported by a young man, walked out of Yangtou Village.
"Hmm? Interesting."
Although the visitor was well hidden, the breath sensing between the strong men still did not hide it from Wei Qing.
If it were an ordinary grandmaster, it would be difficult to find, but Wei Qing was not an ordinary grandmaster. Looking at the staggering old man, Wei Qing felt his cultivation at the first time.
Land immortal, such a master is hidden in a small broken village, no wonder the scout disappeared.
Also, the young man seemed to be timid, but his temperament was difficult to conceal. This was the arrogance that was cultivated since childhood and engraved in his bones.
"My lords, what can I do for you? I am the village chief of Yangtou Village. If you have anything to say, please tell me."
The old man was very humble, and he looked even more haggard as he spoke.
Wei Qing couldn't help but shake his head. This place must be very special for a land immortal to hide his identity like this.
"Senior, I am Wei Qing, the general of the northern border of Xia. I came to your village just to learn about the disappearance of my soldiers. I wonder if you have any explanation."
Wei Qing called him senior. The fact that a general at the level of a grandmaster called him like this already hinted that Wei Qing had discovered his identity.
The old man was startled, and he obviously thought of this, but Wei Qing didn't point it out, and he didn't say it clearly, but continued his performance. As long as the deceived army left, the affairs of the northern border and the southern courtyard had nothing to do with them.
"General, we are all ordinary people living in seclusion here. We have never seen the general pass by and don't know what the general said."
The old man denied it, but Wei Qing couldn't believe it. Wei Qing knew the strength of the Han cavalry very well. Ordinary people couldn't leave so many people.
"Senior, I don't want to fight"Wei Qing was unwilling to continue to flatter and directly asked for the handover.
"What's so great about being a soldier? What does your people's disappearance have to do with us?"
Before the old man spoke, the young man next to him was not happy.
As soon as this man spoke, Wei Qing deepened his judgment. Facing an army of 100,000, how could an ordinary villager dare to speak like this?
"Don't blame me, general. Young people are ignorant. However, we really don't know. Please forgive us."
"We are all ordinary people. We have nothing to do with the war between the two countries. Please lead the army and leave." ”
The young man was full of youthful vigor and spoke without thinking. The old man did not want to cause trouble and expose the secret of this place, so he had to persuade Wei Qing to leave.
"Senior, let's not beat around the bush. The strength of the soldiers under my command is not something that ordinary people can resist. I'm sure you know that."
"With your strength and the deployment here, how can I believe you when you say it has nothing to do with this matter?"
"I'm not belittling you. Although you are a master of the immortal realm on land, you can't keep all of my people. It shows that you have many masters behind you."
"As long as you let the people go and this matter is exposed, I won't make things difficult for you, but if my people make mistakes, I'll be sorry for being unreasonable." "
Wei Qing pointed it out directly.
If the person is alive, everything is fine. If the person is dead, then I am sorry. No matter who you are, the Han cavalry must take revenge.
The reason why I am talking to you nicely is to give you face because of your identity as a master of the land fairyland, and Wei Qing does not want to cause trouble. After all, the secret of this place has not been figured out, and I don’t know how many masters are hidden in it.
"Alas, I am too arrogant. I didn’t expect that the people in the north are so powerful."
"Forget it, call Long Tian over. You can’t solve this matter."
The showdown is over. He stopped pretending and asked to see Long Tian by name. It can be seen that this place is indeed extraordinary.
