Chapter 181: Spies
Since the enemy had retreated, and in the face of such a cliff, no one could come up except the warrior king, and when night fell, the soldiers lit bonfires, captured many magical beasts, and had a particularly comfortable dinner.
Lin Chen, Chu Qing, Qin Xiaoxiao, and the Mu brothers sat in front of the bonfire, looking at the raging flames, smelling the smell of roasting, and the tense nerves of several people gradually relaxed.
"Two seniors, what mission are you carrying out to get trapped?"
Lin Chen couldn't help but ask when he thought of the order of the division headquarters and the situation in front of him.
"Young Master Lin Chen, we were originally responsible for escorting the combat resources and magicians of the headquarters, as well as some important military newspapers. But on the way, we suddenly encountered a regiment of the Qi army, and after covering the withdrawal of the magician, we fled into the valley.
Mu Yang still felt very incomprehensible, after all, this route they escorted was already close to the interior of the Qin army, and there was still a long distance from the frontier, why did a regiment of the Qi army suddenly appear?
"Can you mark on the map, where the escaped magician went?"
Lin Chen took out the map and put it in front of everyone, and slowly spoke.
After careful checking, Mu Yang and Mu Qing marked out the detailed evacuation route of the magician, and they were walking around the mountain, because they were afraid of a strong enemy, it was impossible to go back.
And there are no paths that can be interspersed here, so you can only walk around the mountain range where Lin Chen is located.
His mind suddenly moved as if he had thought of something, "Let's go right now, let's go back the same way, return from the cliff on the left to the starting place, and then we will definitely meet the magician who escaped from the Iron Eagle." ”
After a full afternoon of rest, most of the soldiers had recovered their strength, and all the soldiers agreed with the continued search for friendly troops, after all, there was only benefit to a larger team.
"It stands to reason that we can indeed wait for them, in that case, we will listen to Lin Chen's son, and go down the mountain now. ”
Mu Yang nodded immediately, the task of escorting the magician was given to him by the division, but now he has lost people, and it is appropriate to find them back as soon as possible.
"All of them, let's go!"
As when they came, the Iron Eagle soldiers cooperated with each other to descend the mountain, and the wounded and sick were directly taken down the mountain with fire dance, and the whole team set off collectively, and the movements were uniform.
Due to the continuous drizzle and the steep terrain of the mountain, the road down the mountain was not easy, and people were constantly injured by falling stones, but fortunately no soldiers died.
Two hours later, more than 1,000 people went down the mountain safely, although they went through dangers, no one was left behind, and Lin Chen was still very satisfied with the soldiers of the other two battalions.
"Let's continue to camp and rest, and the soldiers on patrol and guard take turns on duty, changing every half hour. A small team of shadows is out looking for the mage's trails, so don't disturb them. ”
"Yes, battalion commander. ”
Lin Chen looked at the tired crowd and conveyed the orders one after another in an orderly manner, and this army began a new adjustment.
In fact, even Lin Chen himself was a little tired, but he couldn't let himself relax, after all, war could happen at any time.
"Brother Chu, I suspect that there are traitors within that group of magicians. ”
Lin Chen walked to Chu Qing's side, took out the map again, and spoke.
"Are there traitors? Do you suspect that the regiment of the Qi army was brought in by our own people?"
Chu Qing looked surprised, he hadn't thought of this aspect so far, and his face became solemn when he heard this.
"That's right, if the enemy really has a regiment that enters the hinterland of Qin, then it is absolutely impossible for the division headquarters not to know about it, and it will definitely remind us. ”
"So I've already sent someone to contact the division headquarters, if there is really a ghost inside, I must skin him alive. ”
Lin Chen is just a guess at the moment, there is no actual evidence, just wait for the shadow troops sent out to come back and see the group of magicians.
"Report to the battalion commander, a group of people appeared in front. ”
When it was getting dark, the sentry on duty woke Lin Chen up.
"Whoever it is, take them under control for me first, and unload all the weapons. ”
"Yes!"
Of course, Lin Chen knew that it was that group of magicians, but before he knew the relationship between friend and foe, it was the most correct choice to control it.
In the face of the turmoil, all the sleeping soldiers were woken up, although Mu Yang and Mu Qing were a little puzzled, they didn't say anything, and fully supported Lin Chen's decision.
"Are you blind and don't see Lao Tzu's rank?"
With a crisp voice, a lieutenant in a yellow robe with an arrogant attitude directly slapped the Iron Eagle soldier who went to check.
In an instant, Lin Chen pulled out the Qinghong sword shadow and came to the magician in a flash, and the tip of the sword landed on the magician's Adam's apple.
"What do you want to do? I'm a fourth-level peak mage at the headquarters. ”
Unexpectedly, the man was still indifferent, and said disdainfully to Lin Chen.
Click!
Lin Chen kicked him in the knee, and with the sound of a broken bone, the man suddenly fell to his knees, his face distorted, although he was a fourth-level peak magician, he had no way at all in such a close situation.
"My soldiers are not what you want to fight. Come and give him two slaps. ”
Lin Chen's cold gaze fell on him, and he said in a low and hoarse voice.
Smack!
As a soldier of the reinforced battalion, almost everyone was particularly bloody, and when he saw his commander supporting him, the soldier walked straight over, raised his hand and slapped him down.
Two crisp slaps echoed in the area, as the soldier urged the source qi to swing out with all his might, so that the yellow-robed magician's face was red and swollen.
The arrogant lieutenant sat on the ground, looking at the soldier incredulously, and was scolding with his mouth open, but was repelled by Lin Chen's sharp eyes.
"If you continue to seek death, I don't mind coming in person. ”
Lin Chen half-squatted down, and little by little put the Qinghong Sword on his neck into the scabbard, and the people present did not dare to speak, for fear of being frightened, they wiped their necks directly.
"Break up these thirty masters, two soldiers are responsible for taking care of one, if something goes wrong, I'll ask you. ”
"Yes!"
Lin Chen turned his head to look at the soldiers of the reinforced battalion, everyone was staring at these magicians closely, as if they were looking at the enemy, full of murderous aura.
After hearing the order, the two Iron Eagle soldiers took one of the magicians away and controlled him, not even allowing him to move freely.
As for this so-called lieutenant, Lin Chen handed him over to Chu Qing personally, and there must be no mistakes.
"Young Master Lin Chen, isn't it a little inappropriate to do this. ”
Mu Yang walked over with a solemn face, after all, these people were the objects of his escort, but now they were being guarded as prisoners, so he begged.
"Big brother, Lin Xiaozi just saved us, I believe him, let's control this group of magicians who have no one in their eyes first. ”
Mu Qing looked very aggressive, but in fact, he also had a delicate side in his heart, he knew why Lin Chen wanted to tie up this group of magicians, so he opened his mouth to comfort him.
Hearing his own brother say this, Mu Yang's face changed slightly, and he walked over with Lin Chen, and asked carefully: "Lin Gongzi suspects that they are fine?"
"Not a doubt, but a certainty. There's just no evidence yet, so let's wait for my shadow team to come back. ”
Lin Chen nodded lightly, although he knew that this statement made Mu Yang a little difficult to accept, but the facts were in front of him, and there was no way to believe it.
"Whew...... So I killed so many of my brothers. ”
After Lin Chen walked away, Mu Yang stood in place and muttered to himself.
"Big brother, don't think about it. Actually, I suspected that there was something wrong with those magicians, but you trusted the so-called written orders of the headquarters too much. ”
Mu Qing then walked over, he had his own judgment like Lin Chen, and he wouldn't completely trust someone.
"Wait for the order from the headquarters. ”
Mu Yang's belief was hit to a certain extent, the group of magicians before was particularly excessive, and even the yellow-robed lieutenant wanted to command him, considering that it was an order from the headquarters, he endured it again and again.
Now that I think about it, maybe the soldiers at hand are a little chilly, no wonder they are all willing to obey Lin Chen's orders.
Until the dawn of dawn fell on the earth, the rainy weather disappeared for several days, and the sun hung up on the earth, warming people's bodies.
Bathed in the sun, the spirit of many soldiers gradually recovered, and the past few days have been continuous battles, but Lin Chen is particularly good at recovering the physical strength of the soldiers.
"Battalion commander, we have found the location of the division headquarters, Division Commander Gao asked us to return to the troops, and we also want to escort these magicians back, they are related to several sneak attacks by the Qi army. ”
It wasn't until noon that the Shadow Force came back to report to Lin Chen, which was enough to see how far the road was.
After hearing this, Lin Chen and the others nodded slightly, and tacitly reached an agreement that they must escort these suspected magicians back to the division headquarters safely.
"Brother Chu, you change the clothes and rank of that yellow-robed man with his subordinates, we have to hide him in the snow, I suspect that the enemy may come to kill people. Before leaving, Lin Chen came over and admonished.
"Okay, I'll do it right away. ”
After picking up the wounded who had been transferred out before, Lin Chen stood in front of the army in armor, and said in a clear voice: "All of them are there, go back to the division headquarters!"
Immediately cheers and applause erupted, and everyone's faces were filled with bright smiles, after all, it was not easy to survive this battle.
When they came, the reinforced camp was more than 2,000 horses, all of them in good spirits, but now when they returned, there were only a few hundred people left, many of them covered with scars, and their faces were a little tired, with a unique sense of desolation.
Before passing through a dense forest, Lin Chen signaled for the troops to stop, there might be an ambush ahead, but he did not send the shadow troops to investigate, but said slowly: "Everyone slow down for a while, if you encounter a small enemy attack, you don't need to panic, just don't resist." ”
What?
Every soldier was stunned, but looking at the corners of Lin Chen's slightly raised mouth, he didn't have any doubts.
"Be vigilant, keep moving forward, and don't attack small groups of troops when they come across. ”
Lin Chen instructed again, and continued to walk in the front, this space seemed particularly quiet, and the atmosphere was particularly weird.
