48 Hours a Day

Chapter 623: Hunter's House (Happy Seventh Eve ~)

By the description of the old cowboy, Zhang Heng has basically been able to determine that Cook's shooting method is above LV2, it should not have reached LV3, but the difference is not too much, and his riding skills are good, he can shoot at horses, of course, the target is not as good as stationary.

Given Cook's age, Zhang Hengcheng had some certainty that he could beat each other if he fought fairly, but if he counted the more than thirty members of the Cook Gang, he was not optimistic, as the old cowboy said.

But good thing they still have time.

Cook shouldn't have thought that the ten men he left in Bliss would be killed and their whereabouts leaked ahead of time.

According to Zhang Heng's preliminary estimate, the Cook gang should have one day to reach Lincoln County, and before considering how to deal with so many bandits, there is a key issue before everyone else, namely how to intercept Cook and Matthew before they arrive in Lincoln County.

“The first move I had on the Cooks was two months ago,” the old cowboy frowned, “they've always been like that, coming and going like wind, somebody called them bloody natural disasters, nobody knew where they were and where they were going, the only thing they knew was where they were going, it must have been a river of blood, like a disaster. ”

“I probably know where they'll be.” Zhang Hengdao, the bailiff Morton has been tracking the bandits disguised as fur traders, so long as Cook and Matthew are not stupid enough to find Morton first, so they should have come to the burned town by now.

Then they'll probably believe Morton's words and think he took the 40 kilos of gold and what Cook put in the bank.

In fact, Zhang Heng has still not been able to determine if that thing really exists, or is it just an excuse for Cook to deceive Matthew out.

Considering that the only group of people besides Cook who could answer the question had already been killed by Zhang Heng, it might be difficult for him to get another answer to the question.

Zhang Heng told the old cowboy where Cook and others might be coming, the latter spread out a map pointing to a forest path 20 miles east of Lincoln County, "If you have no problem with the news, Cook should gather with the ten people who stayed in Bliss first, then attack the county, considering that there will be some time between their arrivals, the first person to arrive should find a place to fix it, this is the best location. ”

Wendy next to him also said, “My father and I went there in the summer, and I remember there was a hunter's cabin, and the hunter's cabin had no owner to rest for hunters in the woods. ”

“Cook would also rest in the cabin if he didn't see anyone left in Bliss when he arrived.” Old Cowboy Road.

“Can we ambush there early?” Zhang Heng asked.

“Hard," Old Cowboy shook his head, "I haven't seen the place yet, but Cook himself was cautious, and I heard the bailiff chasing him say that he would send people to search the area and set perimeter guards wherever he went, which is why the Cook gang is so hard to get rid of, even if we want to surround him, we can't go near looking for a place to hide, but come from afar. ”

Zhang Heng also frowned. Night warfare was his biggest dependence. However, if Cook's people chose to base themselves on the hunter's cabin, turtle in it, and it remained frozen until dawn, it would obviously be unrealistic to rely on a group of miners and farmers to resist a group of Kuk gangs.

“Let's go there first.” Zhang Heng thought about it.

…………

Their time is actually very tight. The Cook gang should be able to reach Lincoln County as soon as possible, and Zhang Heng took a little half a day to reach the woods, but also cautioned against meeting the Cook gang in the woods in advance, so there was only half a day left to prepare them, so before dawn, the walkers left again to come to Wendy's cabin.

The cottage is in the middle of the woods, with a trail that was stepped out of and a stream flowing by because it had just rained, the air in the woods was damp, and the bark was covered with water beads.

This is not good news for Zhang Heng et al., because it means that if they want to use fire to push Cook et al out of the house, it is not possible, and the trees around them have been cut down, and it is difficult to get close from the outside without a sound.

To avoid horseshoe prints being noticed, the old cowboy kept the others waiting outside the woods, only he and Zhang Heng and Wendy walked in.

The old cowboy walked around the hunter's cabin and asked Zhang Heng, “Do you have any thoughts? ”

“There are no more than thirty people in this room, there should be some people out there. If the war starts, the people inside will definitely notice something, and it will be difficult to complete the raid, but with luck, we may be able to kill as many people out there as possible and create favorable conditions for the battle behind us," Zhang Hengton, "but the real trouble is waiting for the other party to hide in the house and fight, there is no cover around here, we will be passive, we will have to find a way to get them out of there. ”

“Even if we can get them out of there, are you so sure you can beat them?” The old cowboy raised his eyebrows.

“It's unlikely that they're going away, and I can't kill them all if they're going away, but I'm a little sure if we just take out Cook.” Zhang Hengdao.

“Enough, Cook has always been the soul and brain of the Cook gang, and once Cook is eliminated, the Cook gang naturally ceases to exist.” Old cowboy, “I may have a way to get them out of there, but I still need to borrow your guys. ”

“They'll all follow your assignment, Sheriff. ”

After a brief discussion of the next action plan, everyone left the forest first. If they went to Lincoln County, they would certainly attract local attention, so they left only one person looking for the wind, the rest walked 20 miles west to rest behind a grassy slope, and Zhang Heng had something to do before the war began.

He had rarely been quiet along the way, expecting someone to forget Wendy.

“Let's go, I'll send you home first.” Zhang Hengdao.

“Please, I've been practicing guns for a long time, and you're out of men.” Wendy begged.

“You've never had a real fight, it's not as simple as you think, and what we're about to face is the most powerful and brutal gang in the whole West, and I don't think there's room for negotiation.” Zhang Hengzhengzheng color channel.
