Text 34 Back to the city

Linglong's full-speed running played a role, at least in Guo Shu's judgment, the pursuers could not catch up, and the threat of death finally stayed away from Guo Shu temporarily.

Guo Shu recalled the whole process, at the beginning he could still remember his mission, but later he only had the idea of saving his life, and the earlier nobility had long been wiped out. However, this is also the norm on the battlefield, the threat of death is greater than everything, fortunately, Guo Shu didn't lose his life here. On the contrary, it was Wang Yu lying on horseback, the earlier injury, coupled with the bumps on the horse, the situation was no longer optimistic, but Guo Shu did not have the energy to take care of him at this time, as his breathing weakened, even if Guo Shu was anxious, all he could do was to concentrate on riding the horse, and return to Surabaya City as soon as possible and escape from this dense forest.

The moon has set in the west, and the sparse stars are carelessly competing with the moon in the sky.

"Da Da Da ----- Da Da -----" The sound of the horses galloping was particularly prominent in the otherwise silent night. In the soft moonlight, a man covered in blood was riding a horse, and immediately a blood-drenched unconscious man rushed out of the dark forest, bringing out gusts of wind, revealing indescribable strangeness.

"What's that?" asked a fellow soldier on the city wall who was on night duty.

"It's like a person. The person next to him looked hard.

The horses quickly rushed under the walls. "The people under the city, stop, who are the people, report their names-----"

"The fifth scout team met the enemy while patrolling, and the captain Guo Shu had an urgent military situation to return to the governor, please open the city gate------" Guo Shu also wanted to go directly to the barracks to report the military situation, but Guo Shu made a big circle in the dense forest because he wanted to lead away the pursuers. As a result, he originally set off from the military camp in the west, but returned to the north gate, and the fastest way to get to the barracks was not to bypass it, but to pass it from the city, and Guo Shu had to ask to open the city gate.

"You're from the Fifth Scout Squad?" an officer appeared in the city.

"Yes, please let me into the city. Guo Shula stopped exquisitely.

A large basket was then placed on the city wall, Guo Shu walked over, first put Wang Yu lying flat in it, and then put himself and Linglong in it. Border cities usually do not open the city gates after nightfall, and if you want to enter the city, you can only rely on this method, called "įž’", which is used to prevent the enemy from deceiving the city gate at night. It's just that when Guo Shu is sitting here, the word "elevator" always inevitably appears in his mind. Of course, this kind of inner groove still can't be said.

The walls were already lit up, illuminating the sky. Wang Yu had already been carried down and handed over to the military doctor for treatment, and in front of Guo Shu, there was already an officer Lin standing.

"I'm Captain Lin on duty tonight, what happened?"

"Captain Huilin, I am Guo Shu, the captain of the fifth scout team, when we were patrolling, we found the Northern Zhou army marching in the forest 20 miles away, they were marching here in three teams, it was a valley, I can't see how many people there are, but the visual inspection is more than 20,000, and they are also carrying large weapons, and the people who come are not good. ”

"Large weapons--" Captain Lin's voice suddenly raised a lot, "How is it possible, large weapons can't be transported out of the mountains at all, there is no road there at all, you are alarmist." ”

"I didn't," Guo Shu looked at Captain Lin and didn't let him go at all, "They dismantled it, and several people carried it together and carried it over." ”

"Are you sure?" Captain Lin had already begun to lose his stride.

"Of course, I've seen those tools, and I recognize them when they take them apart, and I've seen them all, and the trebuchet, and the ladder, and the eight-ox crossbow..."

Before Guo Shu could finish speaking, Captain Lin had already begun to beckon people to inform the whole city, and was already preparing to light the beacon tower, and a huge war machine began to run slowly. And Guo Shu returned to the barracks and waited for the war mission. Fortunately, because the Qingying Pass is besieged and the border is rumored, Surabaya City has been preparing these days, and it is not in a hurry.

"Brother Xiao Guo, what about the people of the fifth squad besides you. The barracks were already brightly lit, everyone had been woken up and started preparing for the war, and before Zhu Yun's clothes were fully dressed, he saw Guo Shu covered in blood.

"Brother Zhu, haven't they come back yet?" Guo Shu stared at Zhu Yun, his heart gradually sank, "Not even Wang Feng and Zheng Yue." ”

"No," hearing Guo Shu ask him rhetorically, Zhu Yun was also a little worried at this time, "Aren't you with them?"

"After I broke off, I let them go first, so that I didn't go around in a big circle, they obviously left before they were discovered, there should be no pursuers, haven't they come back yet?"

As soon as the words were finished, both of them felt heavy.

"Brother Zhu, I'll go to my life first. Guo Shu had to suppress the worry in his heart and walked towards the main tent, leaving Zhu Yun with a frown.

By the time Guo Shu entered the arraignment, the generals were already in the tent.

"Tell me about the situation. An adjutant said.

"Yes, we went out to patrol, and found the army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty 20 miles away from the forest, they were very hidden, and they moved quickly, they came prepared, and they were very tight, we only got a little closer, and we were already discovered, and the enemy marched at night without any disorder, and the equipment on his body was even better, I suspect that it is the imperial army of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, and the number is at least more than 20,000. ”

"Where was the location when you found out. The adjutant continued.

Guo Shu walked to the topographic map, but at this time, no one paid attention to Guo Shu's rudeness, Guo Shu pointed, "Here." ”

"Okay, you go down and prepare first, you don't have to stay here anymore, and after the war, you will be rewarded for your merits. ”

"Yes. Guo Shu turned around and exited the main tent, and when he left, the voice in the tent had begun to rise and fall. Guo Shu watched the barracks come and go, everyone acted quickly to prepare for battle, the sword of war was already hanging over everyone's heads, and Guo Shu was still worried about the four people who had not yet returned, although Guo Shu himself understood that hope was really not big.
