Chapter 113: The Calm Before the Storm
Back at the camp, when everyone told Ling Xiao about Ling Chong's true intentions, Ling Xiao knew that he had been fooled, but he had already agreed to Ling Chong, and he was embarrassed to beg him again. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Throwing an apologetic look at everyone, Ling Xiao was about to scold Ling Chong in his heart, this was completely Ling Chong cheating him, but after all, Ling Chong was for his own safety, what else could Ling Xiao do except accept it silently.
But fortunately, although this guardian mission is better than nothing, but after all, it is very close to the battlefield, and being able to observe the battlefield so closely and feel the swords, guns, swords, and feathers on the battlefield may not be a good thing for Ling Xiao.
For Ling Xiao's experience, the rest of the Tenglong Brigade didn't blame him much, to be honest, they had been fighting on the battlefield for a long time, and their hearts were full of disgust and disgust for war.
Although he didn't have to go to the central battlefield, Ling Xiao didn't want to waste his opportunity to fight this time, he hurriedly dispatched troops, even if it was impossible for anyone to cross the foot of the mountain, he had to guard it to the death, so as not to let a fly fly over.
The next day, Ling Xiao got up early in the morning, and looking at the other people in the barracks, he always felt that he was a little idle.
Walking to the camp, most of the military supplies and personnel had been fully distributed, because there was only one brigade of Ling Xiao's own, and it was much easier for them to pack up than those teams that had several brigades combined.
Of course, there was also an episode in the middle, Ling Xiao didn't plan to tell Yanyu the news of the expedition, but how could she not hear such a big movement in the barracks.
Knowing that Ling Xiao was going to the front line of the battlefield, Yan Yu suddenly became excited, she had never encountered such an exciting thing in so many years.
When Yan Yu appeared in front of him with a large bag of things, Ling Xiao knew that something bad was wrong, life and death on the front line of this battlefield were unpredictable, even if they were in the safest place, but no one knew if there would be an accident, if Yan Yu was hurt with him, how would he explain to Yan Yu's father and her aunt.
With a straight face, Ling Xiao immediately reprimanded Yan Yu, telling her that life and death on the battlefield were unpredictable, and that she had to stay in the camp well, but Yan Yu just didn't listen, and even threatened him with suicide, in desperation, Ling Xiao could only agree to Yan Yu coming with her, but he also warned Yan Yu that if she didn't obey the command, he would tie her up.
Seeing that Ling Xiao agreed to go by herself, Yan Yu suddenly seemed to be a different person, and nodded obediently, which made Ling Xiao suddenly jump a little, this girl, changing her face faster than turning a book.
Although there was one more Yan Yu, it did not bring the slightest trouble to the entire Tenglong Brigade, and Yan Yu also knew that it would be inconvenient for her to wear women's clothes, so she took the initiative to change into men's clothes.
I have to say that Yan Yu, who changed into men's clothes, has a different temperament, the delicate little face, the long hair that is tied up, the small waist that is put away and the lively temperament, the eyes of the big men in the barracks who are looking at it are about to jump out.
However, they also knew that this was the wife of their captain Ling Xiao, so no one would provoke Yan Yu without a long eye, on the contrary, every word Yan Yu said, they would rush to complete it.
For a while, Yan Yu's reputation in the entire Tenglong Brigade was about to be compared with Xiao Long, even if it was Ling Xiao, I am afraid that he would not let it go.
Of course, Ling Xiao didn't bother to care about Yan Yule's nonsense, at this moment, he was in the tent of the camp, studying the defense plan with Xiao Long and a few squadron leaders.
Although the task sent by Ling Chong was dispensable, Ling Xiao didn't want to be perfunctory, he was planning the formation and mode of defense while discussing with many captains.
According to Ling Xiao's plan, he planned to divide the five hundred people into two parts, one of which was led by Xiao Long and guarded the right side of the Roselle Grand Canyon, while he himself led Yan Yu and the other half of the people to guard the left side of the Roselle Grand Canyon.
Because there was no danger in guarding the foot of the mountain, Ling Xiao and Xiao Long made the idea into the Roselle Grand Canyon, and they decided that after the war, they would send some people to the canyon to support, although this slightly violated Ling Chong's order, but as long as they did not enter the main battlefield, Ling Chong would not say anything.
Glancing at each other, Ling Xiao and Xiao Long flashed a smile in their eyes.
Early the next morning, the troops were about to be pulled, and Ling Xiao's troops were naturally at the end of the entire army, but they did not complain at all, and now, I don't know how many people envy them for not having to really fight hard.
The entrance to the Roselle Grand Canyon is a road hidden in the dense forest, and on weekdays, this road is for the people of the two countries to enter and exit freely, but in the war years, this road has become an entry channel for the army, and all the people are no longer allowed to pass.
When they arrived at the Roselle Grand Canyon, all the troops entered their respective territories in an orderly manner, and now the war has not yet begun, but all the fortifications against the enemy have been completed.
Before entering the Roselle Grand Canyon, Ling Xiao saw the huge fortress in the distance, at the beginning, after the invasion of the Ovo Empire, the entire Northwest Army built a huge fortress.
The biggest role of this fortress fortress is to defend against the invasion from the Owo Empire, and the wars that have continued between the two empires of Owo and Ay have now basically become the invasion wars of the Owo Empire.
From Xiao Long, Ling Xiao had already learned that the Owo Empire was not suitable for growing grain, and those mineral mines could not be moved with the army, so after weighing the pros and cons, the Ai Empire slowly lost the idea of invading and attacking the Owo Empire.
However, although the Aye Empire does not want to fight, the Owo Empire is not happy, if there is no food from the Aye Empire, they don't know how much it will cost to buy enough food from the Wind Empire in the west.
Sighing slightly, Ling Xiao couldn't help but sigh a little, if the two countries could conduct normal trade, this war would not need to exist.
Hearing Ling Xiao's emotion, Xiao Long on the side also sighed, "Everyone knows this kind of truth, but after all, we are not the top of the empire, and the empire is not our turn to make decisions, all we can do is defeat the enemy and drive them out of our homeland." ”
Listening to Xiao Long's words, Ling Xiao was noncommittal, he didn't say anything, just looked up at the somewhat gloomy sky, but in his heart, he had his own thoughts.
Entering the canyon, for some reason, the weather suddenly became gloomy, the wind was blowing, the slightest shade was in the soldiers' armor, and the whole person couldn't help but shiver.
Although Ling Xiao didn't need to enter the canyon, when he approached the Roselle Mountain Range, he found that his body was a little abnormal, from time to time, a strange energy would gush out from inside his body, and Ling Xiao couldn't even feel where this energy came from.
After pondering slightly, Ling Xiao thought, since the Roselle Grand Canyon and the Luoshen Mountain Range were handed down from ancient times, then presumably, they were also the same era as Michael at the beginning, perhaps, those energies were created by the scepter of light in his body.
Sighing lightly, Ling Xiao couldn't help but pout, it had been so long since he came out of the Arctic Ice Palace, but he didn't have the slightest way to treat the dark wounds in his body.
Ever since the last time he inadvertently tried to attack the Magician at home, Ling Xiao had understood that the wounds of his soul had always existed, but in this world, where could he find a way to heal the wounds of his soul?
Let it be
In the end, Ling Xiao simply didn't think about these things, now his strength was barely able to use the Boots of Light, with that ability to fly in the void, even if he couldn't defeat the enemy, he would be safe.
Raising his head, Ling Xiao glanced at the army that was busy in the canyon, and he suddenly felt that this canyon seemed to be a little too quiet.
His eyes stared, and Ling Xiao's gaze also turned to the sky, above the sky, a round of white sun, rising and falling back and forth among the huge clouds visible to the naked eye, perhaps, this is the calm before the storm.
