Warring States Eagle

Chapter 30 Eagle Mouth

"Your Highness, there is Eagle's Mouth in front, the entrance of the cottage," Xingsuke said softly, lying beside Masara, pointing forward with his right hand.After more than an hour's trek, under the leadership of Xingsuke, Zheng Liang and others bypassed the trap set by the bandits, and finally arrived near the bandit's lair.Now they are lying in ambush at the edge of a forest, carefully looking at an open area outside the forest.

Following the direction pointed by Xingsuke's right hand, at the end of Kaigaodi, there is a gradually sloping hill, about 7 or 8 meters high. The hill is covered with vines, but few tall trees are seen.On the left side of the hill, there is a crack 5 or 6 meters wide in the middle. Above the crack is a small cliff protruding slightly, which looks like an eagle's mouth from a distance.

"Your Highness, there are usually guards there. Once someone invades, someone will notify the people inside. After passing through this crack, there is a village, which is the residence of the bandits' relatives and ordinary villagers. The cottage is behind the village." Xingsuke continued to introduce.

"How many people are there at the entrance?" Zhengliang asked.

"Usually there are two people. Because they have never been attacked, there are usually very few people guarding them. If they are not worried about the escape of the people who just came back from the looting, they probably don't even need guards," Xingsuke continued.

"The one who came back from the robbery?" Masara turned to look at Kosuke.Zheng Liang didn't find it strange that bandits robbed food wealth, but it was strange to say that bandits robbed people. After all, an increase in population means an increase in food pressure.

"Your Highness, those people who followed the old leader came here with their families, but the number is too small, so the old leader will occasionally bring some poor farmers or refugees back to the village, or bring some voluntary Dashiyeer and Banshi Dalang were originally refugees, but later they voluntarily followed the old leader up the mountain. After Banshi Dalang became the leader, he often did the same, but they mainly robbed young women or some Some craftsmen and those who are urgently needed by the cottage. These people must have tried their best to escape at first, but they will gradually settle down. For example, after those young women have children, they will settle down and become those bandits. His wife or concubine", Xingsuke carefully looked at Masara's face, found nothing unusual, and then continued, "Of course, those who did these things were under Oishi Yeji and Banishi Dalang. It turns out that the old leader's men are Those who don’t do these things, we were originally poor farmers, and we can’t do anything to these people.”

After saying this, Xingsuke found that his palms were covered with sweat.He was afraid that Zheng Liang would get angry and blame himself. Although these things were not done by himself, and even he was coerced into the cottage at the beginning, but now he also came out of the bandit's lair after all, and he still has the bandit's logo on his body.And he also knows that there are several women who were snatched from Zhengliang's territory in the village outside the cottage.Of course, this Xingsuke would never tell Zheng Liang at this time.Xingsuke will tell him after he captures the stronghold, then those damn guys inside will suffer, so don't worry about becoming a scapegoat.

Of course, Kosuke's worries seemed superfluous. After listening to Kosuke's answer, Masara continued to look at the entrance leading to the bandit's lair, frowning, as if lost in thought.But what Xingsuke didn't notice was that Kisaburo, who was not far behind him, was looking at the crack in front with red eyes, and his body trembled slightly due to excitement.

"Well, according to the action we decided on," Zheng Liang finally woke up from his contemplation, and then waved his hands to the back, and seven or eight people immediately started to retreat slowly. "So, Xingsuke, are you ready?" Masaragi turned to Xingsuke beside him and continued.

"Yes, Your Highness, the villain is ready," Xingsuke replied softly, puffing out his chest.Then he followed Zhengliang to the back of the ambush team, picked up Oishi Taro who was still in a coma, walked out of the woods with the seven or eight people who had retreated just now, and returned to the path leading to the cottage.

According to Masaragi's plan, Xingsuke hugged the unconscious Oishi Taro, led himself and eight of his men pretending to be bandits eager to return to the cottage to rescue the injured Oishi Taro, and then swindled the bandit's entrance in one fell swoop.

Just like that, Xingsuke walked in front with Oishi Taro in his arms, Masara and the other eight Ashgaru wore the bandit's original clothes and followed behind. In order to avoid being recognized at once, they all smeared black ash on their faces, and hurriedly Run to the entrance of the Bandit Lair. 500 meters, 400 meters, 300 meters, 200 meters, 100 meters... As the team got closer and closer to the wooden gate at the entrance, Zheng Liang had a weird feeling that these bandits were too careless Yes, the team made such a loud noise, but so far no one has noticed.

"Wh... who is it? Stop?", tens of meters away from the entrance, finally came a shout from inside the wooden door.But there was obviously a little panic in the voice.

"It's me, Xingsuke", Xingsuke immediately responded loudly according to the original plan.

"Ah! Master Xingzhu?" Another exclamation came from the wooden door.One person climbed up a simple observation frame next to the wooden door to look at Zheng Liang's team outside the door.Zheng Liang quickly lowered his head, although everyone's face was smeared with black ashes, but he still tried to avoid looking directly at these bandits.

"It's me, open the door quickly," Xingsuke didn't stop, and shouted while leading the crowd to continue running forward.

"Ah. It's really Kosuke-sama. Quickly, open the door." After seeing that the person coming was Kosuke, the bandit on the wooden frame immediately yelled to the bottom, and then climbed down the wooden frame with all his might.

Soon the team came to the wooden door, and saw that the wooden door was 4 meters high, and it was nailed in a row with thick wood. If they attacked by force, it would be difficult to attack in an instant.

"Squeak", with the sound of a flurry of wooden strips falling to the ground behind the door, the door cracked a crack.Zheng Liang made a gesture to signal the people behind him not to act rashly. After all, this is only the entrance gate, and the key is to cheat the gate of the cottage, so it is best to take down this entrance without anyone noticing at this time.

"My lord", the door was finally half opened, and two bandits walked out from behind the wooden doors on both sides, but they looked like they were 13 or 14 years old, very thin.Zhengliang was very surprised, it turned out that bandits also have boy scouts!Xingsuke in front was also very surprised, and was even stunned for nearly a minute, and then asked in surprise, "Why are you?"

"My lord, it's good if you come back. There was a fight inside, and everyone here has gone inside. Master Chujiro asked us to come here and take care of it temporarily," said one of the boy bandits.

"A fight? Who started a fight?" Xingsuke was stunned and asked hastily.

"Your Excellency is like this...they?", the boy bandit was about to answer Xingsuke's question, but suddenly found that the person behind Xingsuke didn't seem to know him, so he quickly pointed at one of the Roche's family members. want to ask.But it was too late at this time, and the ashigaru behind Zheng Liang rushed over immediately and controlled the two boy bandits.
