Chapter 623

Through the description of the old cowboy, Zhang Heng can basically confirm that cook's shooting skill is above Lv2, and should not have reached LV3, but the difference is not too much. Moreover, his riding skill is very good, and he can shoot at once. Of course, the accurate head is not as good as when he is still.

Considering cook's age, Zhang Heng is certain that he can beat the other side if he plays fair and one-on-one. However, if the number 30 members of Cook's gang are included, the situation is not optimistic as the old cowboy said.

Fortunately, they still have time.

Cook should not have thought that the ten people he left in bliss would be killed, leading to the early disclosure of their whereabouts.

According to Zhang Heng's preliminary estimation, cook and his gang should still have one day to get to Lincoln County. Before considering how to deal with so many robbers, there is a key problem in front of the public, that is, how to stop cook and Matthew before they get to Lincoln County.

"The first one I have on hand about the cook gang was two months ago," the old cowboy frowned. "They've always been like this. They come and go like the wind. Some people call them bloody natural disasters. No one knows where they are and where they are going. The only thing we know is that where they are going must be a river of blood, just like a disaster."

"I have a rough idea where they will be." Zhang Hengdao, bailiff Morton, has been tracking the robbers disguised as fur merchants. As long as cook and Matthew are not stupid, they will find Morton first, so they should have arrived at the charred town by now.

Then they would probably believe Morton and think that he took the forty kilos of gold and the things cook put in the bank.

In fact, Zhang Heng has not been able to determine whether that thing really exists, or it is just an excuse for cook to cheat Matthew out.

Considering that the only group who can answer this question except cook has been killed by Zhang Heng, it may be difficult for him to get an answer to this question.

Zhang Heng told the old cowboy where cook and others might come. The latter spread out a map and pointed to a forest 20 miles east of Lincoln County. "If you have no problem with your news, cook should first gather with the ten people who stayed in bliss, and then attack the county. Considering that there will be a certain interval between their arrival time, they will arrive first People should find a place to fix it first. This is the best place

Wendy, who was on the other side of the house, interrupted, "my father and I went there in the summer. I remember there was a hunter's hut there. The hunter's hut had no owner and could be used as a rest for people who were hunting in the woods."

"If cook doesn't see anyone left in bliss when he arrives, he should also rest in the hut." Old cowboy road.

"Can we ambush there in advance?" Zhang Heng asked.

"It's very difficult," the old cowboy shook his head. "I haven't seen that place yet, but cook himself is very cautious. I've heard from the bailiff who pursues him that he will first send people to search around wherever he goes. He will also set up external guards. This is why cook Gang is so difficult to be eliminated. Even if we want to surround him, we can't find a hiding place nearby We have to come from a distance

Zhang Heng frowned when he heard that the night battle was his greatest reliance. However, if cook's people chose the hunter's cabin as their stronghold and stayed in it until dawn, it would be unrealistic to rely on a group of miners and farmers to fight against the bandits of Cook's gang.

"You'd better go there first." Zhang Heng thought about it.

…………

In fact, their time is also very tight. The cook Gang should be able to get to Lincoln County as soon as one day, while Zhang Heng took half a day for them to get to the woods, and they had to be wary of meeting the cook gang in advance in the woods, so they only had half a day to prepare. Therefore, before dawn, the party started again. Come on To Wendy's cabin.

The hut is located in the middle of the forest. There is a footpath stepped out, and there is a stream beside it. Because it has just rained, the air in the forest is very humid, and there are water drops on the bark.

This is not good news for Zhang Heng and others, because it means that if they want to use fire to force cook and others out of the house, it will not work. In addition, the surrounding trees have also been cut down, and it is difficult for them to approach from the outside quietly.

In order to avoid being noticed, the old cowboy let others wait outside the woods. Only he, Zhang Heng and Wendy went in.

The old cowboy walked around the hunter's hut, then asked Zhang Heng, "do you have any idea?"

"There are no more than 30 people living in this room. There should be some people outside. As long as the war starts, the people inside will be aware of it. It's difficult to complete the raid, but if you're lucky, you may be able to kill as many people outside as possible to create favorable conditions for the fight behind," Zhang Heng said with a pause. "But the real trouble is waiting for the other party to hide We will be very passive in the fight behind the house. We have to find a way to let them come out of it. "

"Even if we can get them out of it, are you so sure you can beat them?" The old cowboy raised his eyebrows."It's impossible to kill them all at once. If they are determined to leave, I can't kill them all, but if only cook is killed, I'm a little sure." Zhang Hengdao.

"Enough, cook has always been the soul and brain of the cook gang. As long as cook is killed, the cook gang will no longer exist." The old cowboy said, "I may have a way to get them out of it, but I still want to borrow your people to use it."

"They'll all be at your disposal, sheriff."

After a brief discussion on the next action plan, the people left the forest first. If so many people went to Lincoln County, they would surely attract local attention. Therefore, they left only one lookout. The rest of them walked West for 20 miles and had a rest after a grassy slope. Zhang Heng had something to do before the war.

He had been very quiet all the way, expecting Wendy, who someone had forgotten his existence.

"Come on, I'll take you home first." Zhang Hengdao.

"Please, I've practiced my gun for a long time, and I'm ready to fight. Besides, you are short of manpower now." Wendy pleaded.

"You haven't experienced a real battle at all. It's not as simple as you think. What we are going to face is the most powerful and ferocious gang in the West. I don't think there is any room for negotiation." Zhang Heng said.
