Heishui Mountain is located on the banks of Heishui River. Tongzhou has many mountains, and Heishui Mountain is just an inconspicuous one. It is not big, but there is no good road around it. Even some roads are rugged and difficult to walk. Now it is winter again, with mostly snow, and the road is even more difficult to walk. A few days ago, there was a heavy snowfall. Heishui Mountain was shrouded in heavy snow. There was a layer of snow on the bare branches. If you look at it during the day, it would be white and natural. If you don’t enter the mountains, it is really hard to know that the Heishui Mountain has a village.

Chu Huan and his team left Tongzhou City and headed north. When they arrived at the fork in the road, they turned to the right road, which was to go around the left side of Heishui Mountain to launch an attack.

He set off at dusk, Pan Fu urged along the way, and this action was that even the generals did not ride horses, but trotted forward with the soldiers.

The Heishui River is actually not far from Tongzhou City, but the Heishui River is very long, while the Heishui Mountain is a bit far away. The night is dark. Fortunately, the Imperial Guards have specialized in training for night walks, and do not use torches. They lead the way in front and follow one by one behind.

Chu Huan was full of energy. Although he had consumed a lot of physical strength during the jogging journey, he could still walk forward vigorously. After midnight, he saw that it was almost dawn and he vaguely saw a white mountain appearing in the distance.

Pan Fu pointed to the mountain and said, "That's it, everyone, be careful, don't let the bandits find our traces!" He sent the order and trotted slowly and approached the Hei Shui Mountain.

After a night of marching, the five hundred soldiers were so tired that they were so tired that they hadn't been sleeping for a day and had enough pork, many people would probably not be able to hold on here.

Only ten miles away from Heishui Mountain, there were almost no roads. The ground was rugged and it was extremely difficult to walk. After walking for a while, the soldiers of Pan Fuling stopped and then said in a deep voice: "Brothers, we are not comparing our feet tonight, but comparing our swords to compete with each other!"

There were many smart soldiers. Wei Tianqing said that he had to compare his foot strength. He believed it at first, but when he marched overnight, many people had already guessed that he was going to have a sudden attack, but after all, he guessed that he was a minority, and most of them were still very surprised.

Pan Fu pointed to Heishui Mountain not far ahead and said, "Just on that mountain, there is a group of bandits entrenched. The specific number is not clear, but it is only one or two hundred people that can reach the sky. Our troops are ten times more powerful than them. Originally, the small bandits can be solved by the Tongzhou Camp, but in order to train everyone in actual combat, and to give everyone the opportunity to make meritorious service, we will do this job by ourselves." With a look of consolation, the dark night

In the meantime, he held the sword and said in a deep voice: "Brothers, this time, we must do our best to suppress the bandits. If one of them is missed, we cannot be called elite soldiers. After getting close, we must be careful when we act and try not to alarm the people on the mountain. We must catch them off guard... Following this general's order, after taking action, we can live, otherwise, no matter men, women, young and old, as long as we dare to resist... will be killed without mercy!"

His expression was cold and his voice was filled with a stern aura.

At that moment, Pan Fu changed Chu Huan and several other guard generals, Ya General, and each led the soldiers to scatter and touched the Heishui Mountain in a fan shape. Chu Huan brought thirty people and was on the left to touch the Heishui Mountain.

Five hundred soldiers scattered in fan shape, like ghosts wandering at dawn. Everyone drew their swords in their hands, with murderous aura on their faces, quietly approaching the foot of the mountain.

It didn't take too long, and all five hundred soldiers had touched the foot of the Heishui Mountain. The Heishui Mountain was filled with dense trees and forests, like spears standing soaring into the sky.

According to the prior deployment, except for the 300 people in Heishui River behind the mountain, who were ambushed there and did not participate in the attack, the other three sergeants had to launch an attack on the mountain at the same time.

So after reaching the foot of the mountain, all five hundred soldiers lay on the ground and did not attack immediately.

Pan Fu sat next to a stone, waiting for a long time, looked up at the sky, and the sky gradually became brighter, and he wanted to lead his army to kill immediately, but before the news from Wei Tianqing came, he must not act rashly before he was sure that Heishui Mountain was completely surrounded.

If we estimate the route, Wei Tianqing's team came from the front and should have arrived at the earliest.

Fat Liu was next to Chu Huan at this time. He was fat. He ran away that night and consumed a lot of energy. Fortunately, his body was solid. He stopped to rest for a while and was already breathing.

"Sir, if they really meet a child later, will they fight back? Do they really want to kill them?" Fat Liu kept wondering about such a question and asked Chu Huan in a low voice.

Chu Huan looked calm at this time, turned his head to look at Pang Liu, and asked back, "If you can't even beat and catch a child, then you still want to kill the bandits?"

Fat Liu blushed and nodded, "I understand what the sir means." Looking at the mountain, the dense trees blocked many things, and I couldn't see clearly what was going on on the mountain for a while. I muttered in a low voice: "How can bandits choose this place where this dog doesn't poop!"

Of course no one answered his words.

Pan Fu waited for a while, and finally someone came over, carrying a small hourglass in his hand. The man bowed his body and whispered: "General Pan Lang, the youngest one was sent by the commander!"

"Have you arrived?" Pan Fu asked hurriedly.

The man put the hourglass in his hand on a stone. At this time, there was not much sand in the hourglass. He whispered: "General Pan Lang, the commander, sent people to the left and right wings at the same time. The younger one came over to tell you that the sand in the hourglass leaked out and you can start attacking the mountain."

Pan Fu nodded and said, "I understand!" He stared at the hourglass, and there was not much left.

In this era, there is no watch, the time cannot be checked, and the air cannot be made. Generally speaking, rockets are emitted to the sky as an offensive signal, but tonight, they have to be caught off guard, so naturally they cannot launch rockets, which will make the bandits on the mountain beware of them.

After waiting for the hourglass for a while, Pan Fu seemed to have been waiting for a thousand years. When the sand was completely leaked, Pan Fu was shocked and was the first to get up and jump onto a big stone. Although the five hundred soldiers were all crawling on the ground, they could see Pan Fu's figure. Seeing Pan Fu waved his sword, the five hundred soldiers did not hesitate and bowed their bodies to the foot of the mountain and touched the mountain.

Chu Huan led dozens of soldiers on the left into the mountains. Not only were the trees towering, but there were also many strange rocks on the ground, which was extremely difficult to climb.

Chu Huan held the knife, and the fat willow was pressed against him. The soldiers were all silent like ghosts. On the entire Black Water Mountain, there was almost no other sound except the sound of the cold wind blowing in his ears.

This surprising silence actually made Chu Huan feel a strange feeling.

Five hundred soldiers pulled apart one by one, like a knife moving up the mountain. After climbing for a while, Chu Huan faintly saw that there seemed to be a cluster of black shadows on the mountain, as if they were houses.

From this point of view, the news is indeed correct. This Black Shui Mountain is indeed surrounded by a group of bandits.

Just as he was walking, he suddenly heard a commotion from the right side. Chu Huan frowned and saw a figure flashing not far from the right. It seemed that something had happened. He had not yet known when, but he saw a soldier not far away in front of him like a stone, suddenly sinking down. Chu Huan was surprised and heard a scream. He stepped forward and rushed over, but saw a small deep pit in front of him. The soldier had just fallen into the pit, and then the faint dawn light looked into the pit. Chu Huan couldn't help but frown and his face changed color.

The soldier had already been pierced by several bamboo thorns. On the bamboo thorns, blood was pouring on them. One of the bamboo thorns pierced the soldier's throat. The soldier's eyes were wide open, his face was in pain, and his body was twitching freely, but after just a few twitches, he stopped moving.

"There is a trap!" Chu Huan immediately reacted in her heart.

Before he could think about it, he heard screams from both sides. There was no doubt that many soldiers had already stepped into the trap. Such a trap was very vicious and as long as it fell, they would definitely die.

"Be careful!" The continuous screams had already shocked the soldiers. Chu Huan said in a deep voice: "There are traps on the mountain, be careful!"

Chu Huan tightly held the big knife in his hand, and was shocked. He leaned over and knelt on the edge of the trap on one knee. He looked at the four walls in the pit and frowned. He thought these traps had been arranged by Heishui Mountain, but at this time, he saw that the soil wall was surrounded by new soil, which means that the trap was just dug out recently, and it was probably the trap buried in the past or two days.

If so, Chu Huan had to suspect that the bandits in Heishui Mountain had already known that the officers and soldiers were attacking, but the Imperial Guards' operation was extremely confidential. Before the operation, there were only a handful of people who knew about this military operation. The guard general only received the news yesterday evening, and the soldiers had only received the order to attack Heishui Village not long ago. How could the people in Heishui Village know about such a confidential military operation, and even set up the trap early?

Chu Huan felt it was incredible, and suddenly heard a few more screams, which were very miserable. Fat Liu was already angry and said in a deep voice: "Sir, these bandits are cruel and vicious, very vicious..."

Chu Huan looked grim. It seemed that the encirclement and suppression of Heishui Mountain would not be as easy as imagined.

The emergence of the trap and the tragic death of the companions did not make the soldiers of the Imperial Guards timid. Although it also caused a panic, the well-trained Imperial Guards quickly calmed down. The blood of the companions aroused the hatred of the soldiers. They all held the big sword tightly and accelerated the climb to the mountain.

Chu Huan turned around and told everyone to be careful whenever they proceeded. Since there were already traps here, there were no other traps on the mountain.

Before the enemy was seen, many casualties were killed and killed, and these bandits were not easy to deal with.
