Chapter 535: Great Gan Lei Forbidden Technique
"Then let's go there and have a look first."
Xiao Tiansheng had never walked the road from the southeast to Chang'an, and was not familiar with the surrounding environment. He also had personal guards as guides along the way.
If this day's calligraphy is really what he said, it is indeed an excellent ambush location. If used well, it can delay at least a few days, enough for Datang to clear up its troops and deal with the attack of this elite Sirius.
"Since it's an ambush, let's keep these carriages here. Let's all go forward on horseback, which will be much faster."
Lin Xiaofan said.
The future ambush location will definitely be a narrow mountain road. Let alone a carriage, even a horse may not be able to get up there, so there is not much point in keeping these carriages.
However, when these words reached Xiao Tiansheng's ears, he was moved. Lin Xiaofan throwing away the carriage was tantamount to sinking the boat.
Xiao Tiansheng brought a total of 150 people, all of whom were elite cavalry. The horses were tall and mighty. It was not a problem to bring one more person. Lin Xiaofan, Duanmu Liangjiang, Duanmu Ke'er, and Fengsheng rode on the horses in the carriage, and the remaining fifty guards went with the cavalry gate.
"Both of you, please track the troops and horses, determine their movements, and investigate the origins of the other party."
Lin Xiaofan looked at the two shadow guards and said solemnly.
In terms of combat power, the two of them may not be able to compare with generals such as Xiao Tiansheng and Duanmu Liangjiang. But when it comes to concealment skills, the two of them are definitely the strongest, and they are much better than the others.
If you want to successfully carry out this ambush, you must detect the enemy's movements. This matter is so important that even if you send out two personal bodyguards, it is still worthwhile.
"promise."
Shadow One and Shadow Two responded.
Before coming, they were ordered to completely follow Lin Xiaofan's arrangements. No matter what Lin Xiaofan asked them to do, they would never be sloppy.
"When this matter is over, I will write to the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty to make up for Brother Lin's loss. By the way, I will also calculate Brother Lin's contribution this time."
Xiao Tiansheng patted Lin Xiaofan on the shoulder.
"Tian Tian is exaggerating. It's just a few carriages. It's nothing compared to the safety of the Tang Dynasty."
Everyone hurried forward, and after several hours of walking, mountains rose up from the ground and appeared in front of everyone's eyes.
There are many large mountains in the southeast of Datang, but most of them can be bypassed directly, or they are relatively flat, but the mountains here are like waves, one after another, blocking the entire front, and there is no end as far as the eye can see.
It's just like what I said, if you don't climb this mountain, you have to go around for two days.
A few people searched for a long time and found a relatively gentle road among the steep roads. There was a stone tablet carved at the bottom, Tianshu Road.
Looking up, the steepest part of the road reaches almost 80 degrees. There are several things like iron nails fixed on it for people to climb up. Although it was only a short distance of three or four meters, it was still shocking to see. Due to its age, the "iron nails" are stained with rust and seem to fall off at any time.
It's no wonder that the Tang Dynasty didn't set up a military force here. It's estimated that just transporting water and food back and forth up and down the mountain would cost a lot of people a year.
"Do you think the troops from the Sirius Kingdom will really go up here?"
Xiao Tiansheng swallowed. With his level of strength, climbing up would not be a problem, but if all the elite Sirius troops wanted to climb up, they would probably lose some of their men.
"General, this is the road to Chang'an from here. I have walked it four or five times. This is the most suitable place for an ambush. Although there are some mountains, you can easily go around it. You can only choose to go through the woods. Ambush."
"But with just the two hundred of us, an ambush in the woods won't have much effect."
The guard who led the way touched his head and spoke. He is also a veteran for nearly ten years and has fought many battles. In addition, he has been with Xiao Tiansheng for a long time, so he still knows some tactics.
"Brother Lin, what do you think?"
Xiao Tiansheng turned his gaze to Lin Xiaofan. Although he already had the answer in his mind, he still asked patiently.
There was an expert next to him who was one of the top ten in the list of divine generals, and it was all based on strategy, so he didn't use it in vain.
Lin Xiaofan has been looking at this heavenly book road. The mountain road is rugged, exceeding his expectations and even beyond his knowledge. He definitely couldn't take the horse with him, so Lei Zhenzi tried his best not to use it. After all, if he wasn't careful, he could injure the enemy a thousand times and lose himself eight hundred.
However, steepness also has its advantages. As long as they can occupy the terrain, unless they run out of bows and arrows, the enemy will not be able to attack them no matter how many people they have.
In his opinion, Sirius' elite team should be able to pass here.
First of all, through last night's investigation, he learned that the opponent was all infantry. After all, cavalry does not play much role in siege warfare. So they have the conditions to pass this road with all members.
Secondly, although this mountain road is rugged, it is not inaccessible. As long as we are careful and help each other, there won't be too many casualties.
It's totally worth sacrificing a few or dozens of people in exchange for two days.
"This narrow terrain does not require close combat at all. Brother Xiao, why don't we divide our troops into two groups? My people will be responsible for guarding the mountain road above. You lead the cavalry. When Tao Men flees from the mountain, lead the cavalry out to kill him. Ichiban. Duanmu Liangjiang, follow me all the way, and use Lei Zhenzi to break the road."
Lin Xiaofan said.
This way, there is no need to abandon the horses. Even if the opponent doesn't leave from here, they can still take advantage of the speed of the cavalry to walk in front of the enemy and look for an ambush location.
"Brother Lin, heroes see the same thing. But is this Lei Zhenzi the rumored Da Gan Lei Forbidden Technique?"
Xiao Tiansheng's idea was very different from Lin Xiaofan's, and he didn't question it. However, what Lin Xiaofan said about Lei Zhenzi directly aroused his interest, turned to his face, and asked excitedly.
He had long heard that Lin Xiaofan knew a powerful forbidden thunder technique. When used, the sound was as loud as thunder. It could split mountains and rocks in an instant and turn thousands of troops into ashes.
He was also very interested in this powerful Da Gan Lei Forbidden Technique.
However, everyone still holds a dubious attitude as to whether it really exists. After all, the news was just hearsay, and people in the Tang Dynasty had never really seen it. Moreover, this kind of thing was beyond their knowledge, so they subconsciously chose not to believe it.
I didn't expect that today, I would have the opportunity to see it with my own eyes. When I get back, wouldn't I be able to brag about it with my many friends?
Lin Xiaofan was slightly startled, the Forbidden Technique of Gan Lei? If you really want to say it, Lei Zhenzi's method is half as good as a ghost or god in this era. It's not too much to call it a forbidden technique.
"That's right. But it can't be used many times, so it's good to use it as a cover when retreating."
