My god, run!!!

Chen Xinyi was happy at this moment. Looking at Zhou Zheng, her eyes were full of tenderness and she felt extremely sweet and happy. Zhou Zheng sent her back to her room. She covered her head with the quilt and fell asleep in a short while. Her mouth was filled with smiles all night long.

After sending Chen Xinyi off, Zhou Zheng returned to his room. After returning to his room, thinking of Chen Xinyi's shy and cute appearance, Zhou Zheng's mouth corners also curled up into a smile.

Although it was said lightly, it was just a piece of wick. But Zhou Zheng lay in bed and thought carefully about how to conduct reconnaissance after entering Shuanger Mountain? And what to do if he encountered bandits?

"After all, there are two more words between saying and getting, and that is to do it. Doing it is not an easy thing. Although Zhou Zheng has cheated, the premise of Zhou Zheng's actions is "safety first". Without the guarantee of safety and sufficient confidence, Zhou Zheng will not act without authorization."

"So at this time, strategies and tactics are extremely important. Zhou Zheng went over all these things in his head, and after making sure there were no omissions, he went to sleep."

The next morning, Zhou Zheng and his three companions got up early, had breakfast and set off.

Zhou Zheng also chatted with Chen Xinyi in private for a while. Chen Xinyi didn't cry or make a fuss. She just watched Zhou Zheng and the others leave. After seeing them go far away, she turned around and went back to her room.

The two brothers Li Daniu and Li Erniu had a clear division of labor. Each of them went out to inquire about useful information for one day, and used the rest of the time for physical exercise. Because Zhou Zheng taught them the method of exercising, the two brothers never slacked off for a moment and insisted on exercising every day.

This time the four of them did not ride horses, because riding horses was not convenient for going through mountains and forests, and was not as convenient as walking, so the four of them chose to walk.

The four of them were dressed very casually, like genuine farmers, and looked like people visiting relatives. This was all to conceal their identities and make it easier to get things done.

In this way, a month passed in a flash, and Zhou Zheng and the other three successfully completed the comprehensive reconnaissance mission of the entire Shuang'er Mountain.

The situation of Shuang'er Mountain that Zhou Zheng learned from his master was very different from what they actually discovered.

It’s true, without investigation, you have no right to speak.

The investigation found that the corridor in the middle of Shuang'er Mountain is winding and the road is uneven and bumpy in many places. It may be easier to walk in the summer, but the road is difficult to pass in the winter.

The entire corridor is about 70 kilometers long, and the front and rear corridors in and out are nearly 60 kilometers long in total. The road is winding and bumpy. The middle corridor is relatively flat, with small hills nearly 300 meters high on both sides, which are natural ambush sites. If the corridors on both sides are blocked, no matter how many troops there are, they will be wiped out here.

There are about 20 bandit groups on Shuang'er Mountain. There is a large bandit group on each of the east and west sides of Shuang'er Mountain, with hundreds or thousands of bandits. The other small bandit groups have two or three hundred people, and there are also small bandit groups of dozens or hundreds of people. These small bandit groups have a lot of people in total. If they unite with each other, they can compete with the large bandit groups.

However, these bandit groups are fighting on their own, and they all want to annex other bandit groups' territories to strengthen themselves, so these bandits will not and cannot unite. If these bandit groups, big and small, really unite, this force is still very terrifying.

During Zhou Zheng and his team's investigation, the infighting among the bandits on the east and west sides was so fierce that it was a life-or-death struggle, with no way out.

If this continues, the larger bandit groups will survive, while the smaller ones will basically not be able to survive. Seeing that they are no match for the larger ones, some of them will choose to surrender to the larger ones. It's all for the sake of face. If you can't win, just surrender to the other side. It's not shameful.

This gave Zhou Zheng and his men an opportunity. Apart from leaving one or two bandits alive to inform other bandit groups, they said that these large bandit groups had gone back on their word, accepted our surrender, and then turned around and killed all of us small bandit groups. They were completely untrustworthy and had no moral integrity.

This caused these small bandit groups to fight desperately. They all united and fought to the death with the large bandit group. As a result, both sides suffered heavy casualties. The more they fought, the angrier they became and the more fierce they fought.

These are the situations that Zhou Zheng wants to see.
