Mang Castle belongs to the Secret Academy, and Ah Yu, the duty officer of the Mansi Village under the jurisdiction of the Guarding Hall, after waiting for a few hours, saw that the night was gradually fading, ushering in the bright light of a new day.

He hid at the contact point to observe the situation of the Barbarian Temple, which was disguised as the roof of an ordinary abandoned and dilapidated bamboo building. In fact, this bamboo building has already been reinforced and subsequently inspected to ensure the safety of the residence.

From the outside, this is just a dilapidated building that can be seen everywhere in Luchuan, the roof of the building has completely rotted, completely unable to shelter from the wind and rain, and the sunlight can penetrate through the large gaps in the top of the bamboo building and the surrounding walls without difficulty, so there is no trace of inhabited life.

The Ming troops passing along the way would not have thought that someone was quietly observing everything here.

Ah Yu has not rested for a night, staring closely at the direction of the barbarian temple, waiting for Duo Zi'an's return, his eyes are already bloodshot, he should have gone to change the guard, he did not choose to rest, did not return to the rest place of the pick-up point, to wake up another member of the watch hall from the second half of the night to the morning, but has been sticking to his post.

He looked at several paths that Duo Zi'an could choose to walk on, and waited for Duo Zi'an's figure to appear.

Come back soon, Duozi'an. Although Ah Yu didn't deliberately pay attention to the sky, the dawn of the sky had already penetrated the top layer of the dilapidated observation point, and when it hit Ah Yu's eyelids, his body suddenly trembled uncontrollably, and he realized that this was not the shallow moonlight at night, but the transparent sky light that broke through the clouds and came to the world before the sun was about to come out.

It's already Yin Shi, Ah Yu quickly came up with an approximate time in his heart, it has been almost two hours since Duo Zi'an entered the camp of Mansi Village, what happened in the camp?

Curiosity and uneasiness gnawed at his heart like countless tiny ants, Ah Yu was not simply worried about the safety of Duo Zi'an, but more worried about whether the transmission of information was smooth.

He didn't know what was written in the information sent by Meng Yangcheng, but he knew that it must be extremely critical information.

Like the other members of the Secret Academy, Ah Yu was personally trained by the military master, from basic literacy, to drawing, reconnaissance, camouflage, combat and the use of weapons, from nearly a month of training, he also had a general understanding of the military master's personality.

It was a man who could keep his composure at all times, no matter what kind of sleepiness he faced, with no fear or panic on his face, and in his own words, "do what needs to be done." ”

The military master is never in a hurry to do anything, nor will he assign superfluous things to his subordinates to do, many colleagues in the secret academy who have worked as thugs under the head of other villages say that under the military master, although there are the most rules, but it is not annoying, although there are always a lot of "lessons" in the zero, but the work sent down is the most relaxed.

The military lord never let them work all day long, and almost never arranged tasks for them during the rest time, but this time it was obviously different, he mobilized all the contact points from Mengyang City to Mansi Village, and sent information urgently from late night to early morning.

The importance of such a piece of information, Ah Yu can understand it too well. And Duo Zi'an, who was appointed to deliver this information, disappeared like evaporated water since he entered the barbarian temple barracks, without bringing any reply.

Such an important piece of information, if there is a problem at their barbarian temple access point, this consequence is beyond the reach of everyone at their access point, and Ah Yu doesn't know what means the military master will use to deal with them.

However, it is said that the leaders of the various villages in the entire Manggu Mountain who died inexplicably were inseparable from the military master.

The military master is a person who does not reprimand people loudly in normal times, but Ah Yu never doubts his methods.

Please, Duo Zi'an, give us a little reply, if this continues, we won't be able to explain. Ah Yu prayed silently in his heart, but his eyes were still motionless and fixed on the few exits of the barbarian temple camp.

And just like his prayer was fulfilled, there was a sound from the calm Mansi Village, it was the sound of horns and war drums, Ah Yu had heard it once after coming to the Mansi Village, it was a force from outside the Mansi Village back to the Mansi Village camp, from the battle with the Luchuan Army, from the direction of Jiangtou City back to the Mansi Village, they were all dejected, and everyone seemed to have suffered a huge blow.

And this time, the sound of horns and war drums is much louder than before, and more can be heard, it is a lot of horns and war drums in unison and reverberation, or neat and solemn, or staggered and overlapped, from the bamboo buildings of the barbarian temple village and the Ming army camp that can not be seen everywhere, as if awakening the ancient heroic spirit of this land.

Countless birds rose from the jungle around the barbarian temple and flew high into the sky, accompanied by countless fallen leaves and crisp birdsong, and countless sneaky small animals and wild beasts in the jungle were panicked and uneasy as they walked deep into the woods far from the people.

Ah Yu vaguely understood in his heart that this time, no army returned to the Mansi Village, and the Ming army of the Mansi Village was about to be dispatched.

And this time the horn and the sound of the war drums in unison, its momentum is simply beyond Ah Yu's imagination, he doesn't know how many Ming troops have been dispatched, but he soon saw the vanguard that appeared first from the main camp gate of the barbarian temple village.

It was a cavalry equipped with full-body armor, the cavalry in the vanguard held the horse, quickly opening the way in front, and the cavalry in the rear followed the vanguard cavalry in front of the way in a neat queue, and a special platoon appeared in the middle of the queue, several cavalrymen in armor who seemed to be different from other cavalry, should be the identity of an officer, around a knight dressed in bright silver full-body armor.

If the people surrounding this knight were all officers, then this one in the crowd should be a general of a higher rank. In the vicinity of the officers, dozens of horsemen spread out in a formation that was clearly different from the rest of the cavalry, deliberately controlling the speed to synchronize with the general's progress, forming a circle-like military formation, arching and guarding the officers and generals located in it.

It's the first time that Ah Yu has seen so many of the most important cavalry in the barracks surrounding a person as a guard, what kind of identity should this person be who is being guarded? His heart trembled, and he saw that the cavalry in front of him changed into marching columns, and the cavalry in front could no longer see their backs, and it seemed that they should be the Tang cavalry in charge of reconnaissance.

And behind the general's Chinese army, there was a cavalry team with no end in sight following behind, this was the first time Ah Yu had seen such a huge number of cavalry teams in his life, and in the land of the southwest foothills, only Jing Yuanbo's battalion could take out this kind of team.

And what made Ah Yu even more shocked was still behind, it was a black and oppressive infantry team that could not be seen at a glance, neatly arranged, and the army was neatly organized, and it was the elite of the army at a glance, followed by the baggage of large and small vehicles.

This way of marching the army made Ah Yu faintly feel that something was wrong, he had also seen the arrangements of various troops in Mengyang, but he had never seen the arrangement of the team at the speed of the march like the army in front of him, the fastest cavalry rushed to the front, and the most bulky material and grain carts were concentrated in the rear.

This kind of team, once attacked, because there is no effective team matching, covering each other, the impact is likely to be disastrous, this kind of training in military tactics is the basis for becoming a member of the Secret Academy, or being selected into the army of Mang Castle, has long been deeply rooted in Ah Yu's heart.

But Ah Yu looked at the team in front of him, and suddenly realized why this army had to be arranged like this, this was an indomitable march, betting everything on the final result, and paying the price of risk, in exchange for the extremely fast marching speed, in Ah Yu's thoughts, this team had already left the scope of the barbarian temple village.

Still in Ah Yu's line of sight were the baggage vehicles at the back of the army, as well as some of the people who accompanied the team, as for the cavalry and infantry in front, they had long since disappeared. What is the purpose of such a rapid journey?

Ah Yu couldn't help but fall into thought, but he already had the answer in his heart, this direction was the main road leading to Mengyang City, unlike the people of their secret academy who risked passing through the jungle from Mengyang to Jiangtou City, if the army wanted to move, it had to take a roundabout main road.

Of course, in history, this army may also have walked through a difficult jungle mountain road, which was a grand retreat at the end of the Battle of Luchuan, which Jiang Yugang did not cross into this world.

However, this kind of thing, Ah Yu is naturally impossible to know, what he can know is that this army is marching rapidly in the direction of Meng Yangcheng, combined with the intelligence that was initially sent to the receiving point in the middle of the night, and the current dispatch of the army, he can understand one thing, this force is likely to be Meng Yangcheng's reinforcements.

Meng Yangcheng was in great danger at this time, so the previous information was actually a message asking for help from the Mansi Zhai battalion, and now the battalion sent a huge army, obviously accepting Meng Yangcheng's request for help, and marching to Mengyang as quickly as possible.

Reinforcements will be the key to victory in a war.

Ah Yu's heart suddenly sounded with the words that the military master had said, and the army he saw with his own eyes now was the most needed reinforcements in the Mengyang area where the military master was located, and Mengyang, who needed reinforcements so much, must also need the news of reinforcements.

Just as he was thinking, he suddenly felt someone behind him tap him on the back.

Shocked, he turned around and looked back, it was his colleague Ah Zheng at the receiving point, and Ah Zheng was holding a paper and pen in his hand, the paper was dense, and it was a scribbled calculation that could not be seen at a glance, Ah Yu took a closer look with curiosity, because he had received the same training, he quickly recognized that this was the estimation method cultivated in the training class of the Secret Academy.

This method of estimation is mainly used to estimate the number of objects observed by visual inspection, and the objects here naturally include the most important military object of intelligence: soldiers.

"Ah Zheng, when are you... Coming here? Ah Yu was very surprised.

Ah Zheng smiled lightly: "Brother Yu, I've been here for a while, you have been obsessed with observing the barbarian temple camp, and you haven't noticed me, I should have taken over your class a long time ago, but you, why are you so serious?" ”

"I... Didn't I see that Duo Zi'an didn't come back for a long time, worried that something would go wrong with the transmission of information? Ah Yu scratched his head, and he was also so absorbed that he forgot the handover of the duty task.

"In my opinion, the appearance of this barbarian temple village army should have received information." Ah Zheng put away his smile and analyzed seriously.

Ah Yu nodded in agreement: "I think, this army should have received information, so it urgently went to Mengyang, do you have any other ideas?" ”

"I think the same as you, the information sent by Meng Yangcheng seems to be likely to be a letter for help, and after the army of Mansi Village received it, because the situation was urgent, it immediately went out to act." Ah Zheng said.
