Chapter 1485: Coincidence

~7 min read 1,256 words

The night passed very quickly.

The next morning, Captain Qiaozhi woke up in the bone-chilling cold; after waking, he looked at the surrounding scenery.

After confirming the situation, they were truly lost.

But there was no need to panic.

Although they were lost in the mountains and forests, they had scouts and would definitely be able to find their way out.

After the scouts spent nearly three hours searching, the route finally returned to the right track.

But as soon as they were back on track, it was as if it were Captain Qiaozhi's imagination, but he kept feeling like someone was spying on them.

Yet Captain Qiaozhi could not discover where the person spying on them was.

After discussing it with his teammates, they said they did not have this feeling.

Captain Qiaozhi was suspicious for a moment, but then he did not take it to heart.

In the mountains and forests, the two Indians following behind Captain Qiaozhi whispered, "That person seems to have discovered us."

"No way, we are so far away, how could they still discover us?"

The two Indians fell silent and decided to be more cautious.

They absolutely could not expose their tracks in front of these British.

Captain Qiaozhi suddenly felt that the sense of being watched had disappeared.

He shook his head, thinking to himself that perhaps it was just because he was too nervous that he had such a feeling.

They walked for several more days on this road and finally arrived at the back of Sanhao Zhendi.

Captain Qiaozhi looked at the back of Sanhao Zhendi, which was a steep cliff.

But it could be climbed.

Captain Qiaozhi revealed a smile; no wonder those French wanted to blockade the back of Sanhao Zhendi, so it turned out there was a cliff.

However, standing on the cliff

Captain Qiaozhi and his group spent nearly an hour climbing to the top of the cliff, and after seeing the scenery above.

A word burst from Captain Qiaozhi's mouth that a Longyan person would say when they were very upset.

Fuck!

As expected of the French!

Captain Qiaozhi sullenly and cautiously climbed down from the cliff and let out a muffled grunt.

"These hateful French, I knew they didn't have any good intentions!"

Everyone looked at him and asked, "What is behind the cliff?"

Captain Qiaozhi said coldly, "There is nothing up there, and we absolutely cannot attack Sanhao Zhendi from here."

"We've been played!"

Captain Qiaozhi said through gritted teeth.

"Could our deduction be wrong? That's impossible!"

"There is a cliff here, there is a change in elevation, our deduction is absolutely not wrong!"

Captain Qiaozhi sneered, "Yes, your deduction is not wrong, it's just that you can't see Sanhao Zhendi from the top of the cliff."

"The top of the cliff is empty; if we didn't go the wrong way, Sanhao Zhendi should be on the other side of this mountain, a place we have no way of knowing."

Faced with this answer, everyone fell into silence; this was indeed possible.

Sanhao Zhendi was indeed located here, but this mountain was not as small as they had imagined.

This was the back of the mountain body; it was very difficult to find the specific location of Sanhao Zhendi from here.

They could not launch an attack.

The scout climbed the cliff, unwilling to give up, but eventually returned in disappointment; he had no Method to determine the location of Sanhao Zhendi from here.

Looking over from here, all he saw were endless mountains upon endless mountains.

This scene also fell into the eyes of the two Indians; the two of them watched these people climbing up and down this cliff and had no idea what they were doing.

But seeing their disappointed expressions, and that they were now preparing to return the way they came.

The two Indians' gazes suddenly froze.

"They are leaving just like that? They just came here to go rock climbing?" The two

Indians said blankly.

"This matter is a bit fishy; I'm going to tell the chief, you stay here and keep watch!"

The other Indian nodded; no matter how one looked at it, this matter was not right.

No matter how one looked at it, there was a problem.

How could a few British dressed as soldiers just come here to go rock climbing and then leave? There must be some other purpose.

Thinking of this, the two of them quickly made a decision.

One of them quickly rushed toward the tribe.

The chief was busy preparing for the tribe's migration; seeing that only one of the two Indians he had sent out had returned, and with a very anxious expression on his face.

The chief frowned and hurriedly asked, "What happened? Why did only you return?"

That Indian disregarded the exhaustion of his body and said while panting, "We discovered that after the British climbed a cliff here, they were going back."

"I felt the situation was a bit off, so I came back to report first; he is still there."

Hearing this news, the chief frowned tightly and asked, "That cliff, where did you discover it?"

He told the chief everything in detail, and after the chief finished listening, his brow furrowed deeply.

He instantly understood what these British were here to do; they were looking for the weaknesses in the French position.

Regarding the fact that the French had a position here, the chief knew it clearly, and he also knew where the shortcut to that position was from here.

This mountain is triangular in shape, and the British position happens to be situated on one of the corners.

One can enter the French position simply by taking a small path nearby.

"I understand now what the goal of those British is."

"French! British!" the chieftain sneered.

This is an opportunity for them; as long as they tell this news to the British, then the British attack will destroy the French position.

As for the British, they will also suffer heavy losses because of this attack.

The chieftain's gaze turned cold, and he immediately said, "You must lead those British to find the small path leading to the French position at once; remember, be quick!"

The Indian was stunned; he did not understand why the chieftain wanted to do this.

"This concerns our survival."

Hearing this sentence, even if he did not understand, he knew the importance of this matter.

He hurried back immediately, striving to lead the British to find that small path before they left.

The chieftain sneered; he knew that the struggle for the gold vein on the front mountain had already entered a white-hot stage.

Neither the French nor the British want to start a war in the winter.

Before winter arrives, they will definitely launch a great battle to end the fighting quickly.

The Indian chieftain also looks forward to this war; he does not want to see the French win too easily, nor does he want to see the British win too easily.

He only wants to see both of their forces suffer heavy damage; only in this way will they, the Indians, have a chance to survive.

Have a chance to rise up.

Right now, it is exactly like pouring oil on a raging fire.

Although he is telling the British about the French's weaknesses, the chieftain is very clear about what kind of weapons the French have hidden inside their position.

In this war, both sides will definitely suffer mutual destruction!
