Chapter 174 Look at Your Future

"Commander, they have gunpowder bombs. They are in the valley, throwing gunpowder bombs down. That's why we can't resist..." The little flag captain's voice became much sharper with fear.

When the rebel leader heard this, his face suddenly turned even darker.

"You said that this caravan has our gunpowder shells?"

"I, I, I..." The flag captain nodded stutteringly and swallowed hard: "Commander, yes, they have gunpowder bombs."

"Someone, check for me."

The head coach had a gloomy face and said, "At this critical moment, if I knew that some daring guy dared to steal and sell military weapons, I would burn his entire family to death!"

"Yes, coach!"

The young flag captain who escaped death didn't dare to breathe and huddled aside, trembling.

The rebels investigated again and again, but still couldn't find out anything until the next day.

The gunpowder shells were not stolen, and no one sold them secretly. Even the two or three shells that were lost were within the normal range of loss.

Although no theft was discovered, the rebel leader was still so angry that he chopped off the head of the flag officer who was guarding the gunpowder shells.

After all, losing two or three is still lost. What if these two or three fall into the hands of this caravan?

The rebels even began to suspect that the people in the valley of Ermao Mountain were imperial troops in disguise.

Otherwise, how could a caravan happen to run into him at such a critical moment when he was besieging Yancheng and completely wipe out his two flags of troops?

Even the defenders in Yancheng didn't have any gunpowder bombs, so how could a merchant caravan have any?!
At this time, on this side of the col.

From last night to today, Lu Xiaohao only saw Bai Tao after breakfast.

He mentioned it several times yesterday, but was rejected by the people guarding Yingkou.

"Our aunt is exhausted."

"Our aunt is asleep."

Finally, she said, "We are so busy right now, how can we have time to meet with idle people? Please don't make trouble."

The reason why the people of Taohua Village rejected Lu Xiaohao was very simple. He and Yang Song ran away without saying a word, and then came back.

Under such circumstances, letting him meet Bai Tao would require the people in Taohua Village to be crazy.

"Miss Bai."

Lu Xiaohao just opened his mouth to say hello, and Bai Dashan beside him said: "Hey, five catties of crayfish, didn't you run away? Why are you back again?"

Yang Song glared at the side. You just ran away, your whole family ran away. He argued angrily: "We went to get information."

Bai Tao smiled upon hearing this and said, "Thank you for the information."

Although, even without this news, the result would not change, but the speed of the battle would still be somewhat related.

"It's good that Miss Bai knows we are not bad people."

"We were not allowed in yesterday." Yang Song pouted and muttered unhappily, "Also, we are not called Five Jin Crayfish, our Master is called... our Master's surname is..."

Lu Xiaohao said: "Miss Bai, my last name is Lu."

As he spoke, he carefully observed Bai Tao's expression.

When Yang Song heard what his master said, his face suddenly changed and he looked at Bai Tao in panic.

However, Bai Tao's expression did not change at all. She just nodded and said, "Hello."

"Oh, by the way, I just had some crayfish cooked. I'll get some for you guys too."

"We are not..." When Yang Song heard the word "crayfish", he thought it was what he was calling them, and he subconsciously wanted to jump up, but he reacted halfway through his words.

He nodded hurriedly: "Yes, we want it, we are crayfish."

Bai Tao: “…”

Lu Xiaohao couldn't help but hold his forehead: "..."

Bai Dashan on the side also looked at Yang Song with a look of disdain, "Look at what you have accomplished." Yang Song wanted to cry but had no tears, so he quickly explained, "I mean, crayfish is delicious, we like it very much."

Crayfish are delicious, and he hasn't eaten them for a while. When he heard they were available today, his reaction was definitely like this.

Bai Dashan: "Since there are two of you, I will give you five kilograms of crayfish each."

Lu Xiaohao and Yang Song: "..." They couldn't help but suspect that Bai Dashan did it on purpose.

Why is it five kilograms and not four kilograms, six kilograms, eight kilograms, or ten kilograms?
Well, I guess Bai Dashan would be reluctant to give away eight or ten kilograms, and four kilograms is too little, so five kilograms will do.

Yang Song carried two food baskets, containing a total of ten kilograms of crayfish, and followed Lu Xiaohao away.

After they walked for a while, he finally responded, "Sir, it seems we have something important to discuss."

"Yeah." Lu Xiaohao glanced at him and said, "I thought you only had eyes for crayfish."

Upon hearing this, Yang Song felt even more embarrassed.

Lu Xiaohao would never admit it. He just remembered it and had not asked the Baijiabao caravan about their next plan.

Naturally, the rebels were unwilling to suffer a defeat at the hands of the Baijiabao caravan, so they sent two flags of troops to Ermao Mountain.

I originally wanted to send one flag, but when I thought about what happened yesterday, I thought two flags would be safer.

Yesterday's two idiots were too ambitious and imprudent. Now, the rebel leader specially sent someone who dares to fight and can fight to lead the team.

There were people on the valley who were always keeping an eye on what was happening below the mountain, and the telescope allowed the rebels to be spotted from a long distance.

The stalker quickly reported the news, and soon Bai Dashan hurried to Bai Tao's tent.

"Auntie, are you asleep?"

Bai Tao was eating a peach when she heard Bai Dashan's deliberately lowered voice at the door of the tent, and came out holding half a peach.

"what happened?"

"Hello, Auntie." Bai Dashan called respectfully at first, and then went on to tell her what he had discovered.

Bai Tao was not surprised that the rebels would come again. After all, if they had not been defeated two or three times, how could they accept the defeat?

This is also the reason why she did not order to go down the mountain today.

Rather than going down the mountain and encountering the rebels who can't find a good position and are surrounded and attacked, it is better to wait for them to tire themselves out here.

The rebels had climbed halfway up the mountain, and even if no one was tired, it would not be easy.

No matter what, the chances of winning are much greater when fighting from a high place against a low place.

"Are you here? Then let's do it again according to yesterday's arrangement."

Given the geographical location, we can only cut off the enemy from the middle, block the rear team and destroy the front team.

She bought me so many powerful things, flash bombs, impact-triggered bombs, and explosive arrows, any of which is a powerful weapon when released.

The people of Taohua Village are fast and strong, and they have experience in killing enemies and bandits, so there is no reason why they would fail.

Bai Dashan nodded: "Yes, I guess the rebels didn't expect that we still have some spikes and stones that we don't use."

"Auntie, you take a good rest, I will make arrangements right away."

Having said that, Bai Dashan was about to leave.

"Dashan, wait a moment."

Bai Tao took out two big peaches from her bag and stuffed them into his hands: "Come, have a try too." If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it grass.

She felt a little embarrassed for being an old lady who only eats and does nothing.

Then, Bai Tao waved her little hand and said, "Go!"

I saw the comments from the little cuties.
