With this ensign?

Zhao Xuanji didn't have this idea and felt cumbersome. But Roger: They think that since these guys are familiar with some of the situations in Peacock King City, they are equivalent to having an extra guide.

As for Colonel Hassan, Zhao Xuanji promised him that he would take him away as long as he helped. There is no ambiguity in this when it comes to doing it, even if both Hassan and Squint are injured and their speed is affected.

Therefore, the original team of six people has expanded to nine. And this time it can't be delayed, you must leave the stone bridge immediately and rush into the Peacock King City.

Because the 512th Regiment was beaten to pieces this time, Karzai, who was in the Peacock King City, was furious. It didn't take long to hear an urgent march in the direction of the city, and it was supposed that a large number of soldiers were rushing towards the stone bridge.

When the soldiers rushed in, it happened that Zhao Xuanji and the others had already infiltrated the dilapidated little city - let's just think it was a city. In fact, with 2,000 residents, it looks like a village. It's just that the area is much larger than the village, and the land is vast and sparsely populated.

Most of them are adobe buildings, with occasional dilapidated wooden houses. Rotten, the biggest feature is rotten, as if everything is like this.

Moreover, the ground of the city is not flat, and there are potholes everywhere, as if a bunch of buildings were built casually on an uncultivated Loess Plateau, and then very irresponsibly called itself a "city".

In addition, there are actually a lot of buildings here, and it can be called a small city based on the amount of buildings. Because judging from the number of these houses, it should be able to accommodate twenty or thirty thousand people.

In other words, this should be ten rooms and nine empty.

The second lieutenant also said that there used to be more than 10,000 residents here, but then it gradually became scarce because of poverty. About 20 years ago, there were just over 2,000 inhabitants left.

And most of the more than 2,000 people are concentrated in the core of the city, after all, people feel safer together, and many things can help each other.

It's just that the core area of the city is less than one square kilometer, so the population density in that area is relatively large.

And such a large area from the stone bridge to the core area, that is, the southern half of the Peacock King City, is basically uninhabited, all of which are dilapidated and empty houses.

found a relatively hidden dilapidated house, and there was a half-section of earth wall made of loess outside, and several people temporarily hid themselves. Although there was a lot of movement of soldiers running outside, it was raining in the middle of the night, and it was difficult to find this place for a while.

The room was really broken and dusty. After finding a place to sit down, the second lieutenant continued to report: "Further north of the core area, there is a planting area with low yield, and it is said that the food grown by the common people is only barely enough to eat. Fortunately, there is a small river flowing down the hillside to the north, which is basically flowing during the non-dry season, barely supporting the functions of drinking and irrigation. ”

Zhao Xuanji: "So, what is the situation in the core area of the city? What is the population composition, are there any hidden places worth noting? What are their main food crops? Are there any other food crop producing areas besides the area in the north?"

A series of questions, as a result, the second lieutenant was a little confused: "This ...... I really can't grasp it. Inside, Colonel Karzai presided over the work, and did not allow us to approach the core area, let alone go north through the core area. ”

After listening to Roger's translation, Zhao Xuanji was a little unhappy: "So, these days, have Murong's father and daughter shown up again? Is Pang Jianxun following the pursuit of the 512th regiment, or following the 'Sword of Glory'?"

As a result, the second lieutenant still didn't know anything.

After listening to the translation, Xiao Xiong sprayed directly: "Ni Mei, you also said that you know the situation inside, and you know such a little bit of affection? ”

But the second lieutenant said that he knew that there were originally a hundred and ten soldiers of the Sword of Glory in it. But when Murong Qianli and Murong Xiaoshu broke in, they simply killed nearly one-third of these elites. Therefore, the 512 regiment was urgently dispatched in.

In this way, in fact, there are only seventy or eighty Sword of Glory soldiers in it now, a little less than expected.

Moreover, the second lieutenant also knew that after the Sword of Glory took control of this place in the past, General Daoud's military helicopters would fly down here from time to time, and he didn't know what to transport or what to take away. In short, the gods are mysterious and secretive, and outsiders are not allowed to approach, not even junior officers such as ensigns.

"Is there a helicopter parked?" Zhao Xuanji paid more attention to. Because it was originally a worthless barren place, but now that General Daoud has taken possession and protected it, it is unusual. Now it is even more important to learn that military helicopters still come by from time to time.

Is it to transport people, or to transport goods?

With these questions, Zhao Xuanji and the others continued to grope forward and advanced for more than half a kilometer, and it was not far from the so-called core area

And the soldiers who really searched for them just now have actually been left far behind by them. Those soldier cards searched around the stone bridge, but of course nothing came of it.

However, at this time, Colonel Karzai was also annoyed and ordered the soldiers of the 512th Regiment outside to be killed, including a battalion and a company that were reinforced later. Because it had been determined that Zhao Xuanji and they had all entered the more narrow area of Peacock King City, it should be easier to search.

Of course, the core area of the Peacock King City is not allowed to be approached, and these soldiers are only allowed to search the empty streets and alleys of the southern city. And if thousands of troops are repeatedly investigated, the success rate will be large.

As for the vicinity of the core area, of course, it is heavily guarded. The area of less than one square kilometer is surrounded by natural earth enclosures on all sides, like a city within a city. Although the earthen enclosure is less than two meters high, it is as well defended as a city wall. There were patrolling soldiers every twenty meters or less, and it was even more difficult to sneak over.

And through the inner wall of this earthen enclosure, Zhao Xuanji and they couldn't see the specific situation inside.

Seeing such a tight defense, Zhao Xuanji even hoped that Xiaoshu and Murong Qianli would not enter this inner city. If that's the case, as long as you wander outside in these no-man's lands, there will always be a time to bump into you.

To be honest, Zhao Xuanji knew that there must be something in this inner city, and there was something enough to make General Daoud reluctant to give up. But for Zhao Xuanji, he didn't bother to inquire about these things, as long as he could save people, it didn't matter what was going on inside.

At this time, the number of soldiers behind him began to increase. Thousands of pursuers slowly poured in this narrow area, and the density was much greater than in the potholes outside.

"Listening to the movement, it seems that there are too many pursuers. Zhao Xuanji looked at the light rain that was gradually stopping, and shook his head, "How can we let Xiaoshu and them know that we are looking for them now? If their father and daughter are in the outer city, but we rush into the inner city, it will be called a headache." ”
