There was no send-off from all the people, no wine cups smashed on the side of the road, not even the faint crying of the people.

In the whole world, only the rumbling war drums seemed to be constantly echoing.

Walking out of the city gate, Xiao Han and the others went straight to the strange team that had been waiting on the side of the road for a long time.

Then he glanced back at the city, waved his hand, and the procession began to move slowly north.

The whole process is extremely simple, it seems that they are not going to fight desperately, but to go to the north for a visit, and they will be back soon!

But compared with Xiao Han's free and easy.

The head of Yangzhou City behind him is much more dignified at the moment!

Downstairs at the city gate, which is not too tall, Yang Wenwen and Cui Jingzhi's eyes are red!

The soldiers around him clutched the weapons in their hands tightly, and looked at the team in the distance with complicated expressions.

No one made fun of this shabby team, because the idiot who laughed out loud last time had been turned into a pig's head by the veteran.

Looking at the angry veterans, and then looking at the indifferent city guards and county orders, these people finally remembered: This shabby general is here, not for anything else, just for Yangzhou City and for their home!

In the black city, a pretty figure holding a child is particularly eye-catching.

Standing quietly at the front of the city wall, Xue Pan's eyes were a little blurry, but she held back her tears from falling.

Sending people to recruit people, tears are unlucky!

"An An, your name will be Xiao An'an in the future, I hope you and your father can be safe and enjoy a lifetime!"

Gently hugging the child in his arms, Xue Pan's eyes were moist, but his face was stubbornly smiling.

————

Xiao Han, who had already left Yangzhou City, didn't know that the name of the child who he had quarreled with Old Man Hua for more than a month finally settled at this moment.

Walking on the road outside the city with difficulty, the armor that was originally draped on his body had already been carried on the body of the stunned man next to him at this time.

"Hey, if I knew, I would have ridden a horse! Lao Tzu's leg is the same as his grandfather's broken! ”

Looking back at the old Qiu who were hurrying away in a muffled voice, Xiao Han couldn't help but wail in his heart!

He could have ridden a horse!

But they all complained about Cheng biting Jin's old horseman, and Chai Shao's old bastard!

In the past, there was always something to nag in his ear, saying that if you are a general, you should share weal and woe with the soldiers! The same clothes, the same food, the same walk, and said that this is the most basic way to command the army!

So this time, Xiao Han's brain was hot, and he didn't ride a horse, so there was the scene of breaking his leg at present.

"Whew...... How far are you from your chosen destination? Groping to take off the water bladder from his waist, he raised his head and poured a mouthful, Xiao Han let out a sigh of relief this time and asked the old Qiu next to him.

Lao Qiu looked up at the front and replied with a solemn face: "There are still twenty miles!" ”

"What? And twenty miles? When Xiao Han heard this, his eyes widened! He whispered: "We've been walking for half a day, and we've only walked ten miles?" ”

"That's right, it's not even ten miles, but it's going to be ten miles soon!" Lao Qiu glanced back at the rangers who were following behind, and nodded a little absentmindedly.

"How do you know? Have you been here? Xiao Han refused to believe Lao Qiu's words, he felt that he had to walk at least twenty miles! It must be Lao Qiu who miscalculated the distance!

"I've never been here."

Lao Qiu shook his head and replied, but before Xiao Han could be happy, he stretched out a hand and pointed ahead: "But I saw that there was a ten-mile pavilion in front of me......

“…… I'll go! ”

Xiao Han suddenly collapsed on the ground like a deflated ball.

Thirty miles outside the city, it is the place where he set up an ambush with the dogs, and it is also the most suitable place for a large number of people to be stationed outside Yangzhou!

When Xiao Han was still in the city, he was the same as Jia Yi, and Lao Qiu and they repeatedly studied and judged various maps and county records.

In the end, they decided that as long as the leader of the thieves was not a fool, he would definitely choose to camp there!

Before, he was afraid that the thieves were really a group of rabble, running around outside the city!

But since we know that these people have come with a purpose, it is much easier to count them.

Marching is a science, and you must not think that you can walk any road.

In this era when there is no navigation, let alone satellite maps, if you take the wrong road, or find that while walking, a broken bridge appears in front of you, the blow to the physical strength and morale of the soldiers is absolutely fatal!

Therefore, a team of more than 10,000 people can choose only a few big roads! Drawing these roads, combined with the news from the scouts, their marching routes are obvious.

Determine the route of the march, and then determine the camp, then it is a simpler matter.

The garrison needs water, it needs to be spacious, it needs to be safe from the enemy, and of course, it is better to have a little more danger, so much the better!

All of this, outside Yangzhou City, only this place thirty miles away, is the most qualified.

To the west, there is the wide Jin Lake, which is the Gaoyou Lake in later generations.

To the east, and to the north, are fields that are easy to observe.

As for the south of Yangzhou City, it is a small valley that is not too wide.

In case those Yangzhou people go crazy and want to kill them, they can easily contain their offensive as long as they block one end of the valley.

Xiao Han thought so, obviously, those thieves also thought so! Therefore, if someone looks at it from the sky, they will find that these Haikou who came from afar are advancing forward exactly along the lines drawn by Xiao Han and the others.

"Master Hou, it's time to leave, we must rush to meet the dogs and them before dark!"

In the ten-mile long pavilion, Lao Qiu dragged Xiao Han up without hesitation and walked outside.

"Take another break! There's no need to be in such a hurry, it's not too late! Xiao Hanmian slumped his legs and was dragged away from the pavilion stumbling, begging constantly, hoping to sit for a while, even for a short while!

However, Lao Qiu didn't give Xiao Han face at all, and he and the stunned man had one arm and one arm, which seemed to be holding on, but in fact, he walked forward.

"Master Hou, you are now the backbone of all of us, and you must not show weakness!

Our family is okay, those rangers are all human spirits who become monkeys when they get their hair! From the beginning, they were reluctant to leave the city, and now if they don't give them some confidence, I'm afraid that if they can't get anywhere, these people will run! ”

"With gold and official positions, will they still run?"

"Hehe, Master Hou, you believe in these two things too much! Maybe they are effective against those ruthless people who have nothing, but it is difficult to say how effective these hob meat are!

After all, there are very few of them who have children, and for these bachelors who are fed and the whole family is not hungry, life can be enjoyed! Dead, even if you give them more things, it's useless! ”
