Chapter 259: The Battle of Chaisan (1)

"Ahh

Zhao Qi let out a big sneeze and rubbed his nose.

It's already autumn, and it's cold outside the late night style.

A full yellow moon hung in the night sky, without the slightest warmth.

Looking at the sparkling river under his feet, Zhao Qi was very sad.

He's been here for almost two months, and the war has been stalemate.

Although he didn't rush to the front, he had a feeling that as long as he stayed here, he would be in danger.

Whenever this happens, he misses his family in Shuzhong very much.

A gust of evening wind blew, making him shrink his neck.

Looking down at his younger brother sleeping beside him, Zhao Qi showed a hint of a smile.

Their brother was forcibly conscripted into the army, and for the safety of the family, as the men of the family, they had to choose to give in.

The reality is that no matter how unwilling you are, you can only choose to be submissive.

Especially people like them, who have no power and are honest.

Gently pulled the clothes draped over his brother and covered them.

Zhao Qi blew into his hand, felt the fleeting warmth, and stood up.

Since they are natives of Shuzhong, even if they enlist in the army, they have the lowest status.

He also tried to resist this.

Why are they also soldiers, and their brothers have to be inferior.

As a result, his brother had to stand on the outskirts of the army late every night, keeping watch for the whole army.

Of course, he is not the only one who does this, but without exception, they are all natives of Shuzhong.

For all this, Zhao Qi has been used to it for so long.

The only thing he could do was to let his brother sleep a little longer in the middle of the night.

Looking at his sleeping brother again, Zhao Qi shook his body and walked to the side.

Because walking back and forth like this, your body will be warmer.

The only advantage of being a sentry in such weather is that you are not easy to sleepy.

Zhao Qi walked back and forth, looking at the end of the dark river, and his inner thoughts were full of thoughts.

He likes it, looking at the horizon and thinking, and being able to imagine being with his family.

Just as he casually looked into the distance, his eyes suddenly flashed.

Something doesn't seem right at the end of the river tonight.

It seemed darker than usual, as if the night sky and the river surface had merged into one, and it was as black as ink.

Zhao Qi narrowed his eyes and stared intently into the distance.

Originally, no one would notice such a subtle change.

However, Zhao Qi is different, he often looks into the distance like this, in his eyes, this is an unusual thing.

Just when he was fascinated, he suddenly felt a warmth in his body.

His shoulders sank slightly, and a garment was draped over him.

Zhao Qi was stunned for a moment, suddenly turned around, and saw his younger brother looking at him with a smile.

"Big brother, you're in a daze again! The weather is getting colder, and I still won't sleep after that.

Otherwise, you always cover me with clothes and get sick easily! ”

Zhao Feng smiled and tightened the clothes on his body for Zhao Qi.

"What are you looking at?"

Seeing that Zhao Qi didn't talk to himself, he turned his head and looked into the distance in a daze for a while.

Zhao Feng's gaze also disappeared, but he didn't see anything.

Looking at the appearance of the eldest brother, he thought that the other party was too homesick.

But why wouldn't he want to?

"Xiao Feng, look at it, is there anything wrong there!"

Zhao Qi frowned, pointed to a place in front of him, and turned his head to ask Zhao Feng.

"Nope!" Zhao Feng looked at it carefully again and shook his head.

"That's not right! Likeβ€”" In an instant, he stopped shaking his head and looked at it more closely.

"It looks darker than the rest of the place! This must be something coming together! ”

After comparing other directions, Zhao Feng was convinced of his thoughts.

"Oops! It can't be the enemy! ”

Zhao Qi's face was a little pale, and he felt that he had discovered something terrible.

"Doesn't that look like a warship? But it's really like a large crowd is gathering, should we beat the drum alarm? ”

Zhao Feng looked at his eldest brother and said.

"Don't rush yet, let's see!" Zhao Qi shook his head.

It's not that he doesn't want to go, it's that he doesn't dare to go, if he makes a mistake, with their current status, those people above already have opinions about them.

If they are given another false report of military information, it will be killed!

And in these tens of thousands of troops, the death of two local soldiers in Shuzhong is like two bed bugs being trampled to death on the ground, and no one cares at all.

On the contrary, only people will see them dead, and in order to please the people above, they will put things that do not exist on them to prove Shangguan's discernment.

Zhao Qi understands this very well, because he has seen similar things no less than five times in just a few months after he joined the army.

After a little hesitation, Zhao Qi turned his head to the side and jumped onto another warship.

There were also two people on guard, but in his mind, these people were probably sleeping soundly at the moment.

Sure enough, as he expected, the two sergeants slept soundly against the guardrail of the warship.

One of them, a slightly bloated guy, was still snoring!

"Ahem..."Zhao Qi coughed lightly and came to the two of them.

Then he was stunned to find that the other party did not react at all.

Zhao Qi wanted to laugh a little, if all the guards were like this.

I'm afraid that the king of Han will be slaughtered, and everyone will run away, and they will all be asleep.

"Hey!" Zhao Qi finally reached out and slapped the two of them.

There was no superfluous reaction, and the two quickly stood up.

And his face was serious, his eyes were blazing, and he looked like he was preoccupied.

Looking at this flowing posture, these two guys are quite experienced.

"It's me!" Zhao Qi smiled.

"Zhao Qi?" The two of them turned their heads with their eyes and slapped Zhao Qi at the same time.

"I'm scared to death! I thought the people above were coming!

In the middle of the night, you don't just want to tease us, do you? ”

was slapped vigorously by the two of them and almost fell.

Zhao Qi pointed ahead and coughed lightly. "How can I have the heart to tease you, I just want you to see, there seems to be something wrong there, I'm afraid I'm wrong!"

After listening to Zhao Qi's words, the two snorted lightly and instinctively looked in the direction each other was pointing.

At this glance, they seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and their faces turned pale instantly.

"Giggle..."

Both of them had their teeth chattering a little, and they couldn't even speak.

Zhao Qi is the same, because at this time, there is no need to find anyone to see.

Now, by the moonlight, you can clearly see the dark cloud of ships ahead.

It's still very vague, but it's clear to see.

All the ships were covered with black curtains, and from a distance they looked like dark clouds.

Zhao Qi didn't have time to think too much, he rushed to the top of the second floor of the warship.

There, there was a huge war drum ...
