Chapter 1507: Night Scout for Reinforcements
In fact, this place is not far from the capital, Xuanbao first used the original realm to send everyone to the palace, and then rushed straight to the camp of the reserve army.
It was already dark, and Xuan Bao did not enter the camp immediately, nor did he let Chihong Liuyunfei fly directly into it, but stopped ten miles outside the camp.
Sending the third girl out of the original realm, Lu Zhu looked at Xuanbao a little strangely and said, "Why did you call the three of us to come, but the fourth sister couldn't come?"
Xuan Bao smiled and said: "The reserve army is very familiar with the winged people, once something happens, they will definitely guard against the winged people first, and then the swallow can help with the communication! Yue'er's makeup and latent ability are first-class, not to mention the effect! As for you, it is because she is the body of the medicine spirit, so even if you encounter poppy poison, as long as the poison is not deep, you can get rid of it." The main purpose of our trip is to find out people's hearts, try not to startle the snake, with Diexuan's temper, it is definitely not suitable for this kind of repressive action!"
The third girl nodded, the fourth sister's fiery personality is indeed not suitable for espionage missions, and when the time comes, the reserve army has no objection, and the crowd stimulated by her is excited, that is the trouble!
Yanzi looked at the tall watchtower in the distance, and said to Xuanbao: "Xianggong, how do you want to get in? Let the red rainbow flowing clouds fly in and be easy to be discovered, it's not realistic for us to sneak in, these spiritual cultivators are very vigilant!"
Xuanbao pointed to the sky and said to the third girl: "Later, we will use the supply cart from the capital! Xue Ruo said that every three days, the capital will come to the supply cart to deliver food and food, and I will take the opportunity to mix in at that time, Yue'er, take out the clothes first, and dress us up as a reinforcement!"
The clothes had already been prepared, it was Xue Ruo who had prepared them, and he was also informed of the traffic password and duty rules for tonight, so as to be as foolproof as possible.
Yue'er is a thief flower girl, and her skills for disguise are no worse than Xiao Yin and Dan Niang, and now she is even higher, so she must be exactly the same as those reinforcements when she comes to dress up for Xuanbao.
All three of them are in military uniforms on board, fortunately, the military uniforms of the reinforcements are relatively fat, this is the first time Mohuan has done the military uniform of a male soldier, because the time is tight and the task is heavy, so it is only divided into three body types, and many people wear it and do not fit, but now it is convenient for four people, and the gender can not be seen at all!
Xuan Bao said to the third girl: "After we take action, try not to make a sound, unless we have already determined the safety of the surroundings!"
The third girl nodded, and the swallow glanced into the distance, and said to everyone, "Here, I'll go and prepare first!" Everyone turned their heads and watched a pair of carriages slowly coming from the direction of the capital!
Xuan Bao said to Jin Yanzi: "Be careful, don't make it too obvious! Let's just blend in, it's better not to hurt people!"
Jin Yanzi smiled and said, "Don't worry, this is a trivial matter, and nothing can go wrong!"
The 200,000-strong reserve army consumes a large amount of grain every day, and there are granaries in the reserve army, but the vegetables must be the latest, so they have to be pulled from the capital by horse-drawn carts every once in a while.
There is a special escort team in charge of this, all of them are people who reserve reinforcements, there is about a team of five hundred people, about a hundred vehicles, it seems to be huge, but in fact, it is average to the head of each sub-battalion, and it can't transport much, and it can guarantee two days of supply at most.
That is to say, Mohuan is rich and generous, and it can maintain such a frequency, and it should be placed in the Central Plains, basically it will be supplied once a week!
If you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, Xuanbao fought from the Styx Lake to Kyoto, or mainly used the strategy of fighting to feed the war, and still made the entire Central Plains hungry, and it would take at least five to ten years to recover from such a recuperation.
Therefore, he knows very well that Mohuan's wealth is large, don't look at it as a small country, but everyone is rich, in addition to rich jewelry resources, it is not unrelated to the excellent leadership of Tong Yao and the emperor.
The convoy came slowly, and Xuanbao made a gesture to Yue'er and Luzhu, hiding behind a big tree on the side of the road. Several of them have sealed seaweed on their bodies, which can suppress too much aura, so they are not afraid of being felt by those enlightened soldiers.
The wind suddenly blew in the originally clear night, and it was still blowing slowly at first, but it was just a blink of an eye, and it was already blowing so hard that people couldn't open their eyes!
It's not far from the sea, so it's not uncommon for there to be strong winds! A man came running from behind and shouted at the car in front: "The commander has an order, cover your baggage to prevent rain!"
The wind was stronger while talking, and everyone was busy taking out the rain cloth and covering the car, but the wind was also evil, and the wind almost rolled people up to the sky, causing several people to open the rain cloth but were blown away, and even the horses were startled by a few, and for a while people shouted that the horses neighed, and it became a mess!
It's just that the wind is evil, and the retreat is also evil, and when those people pick up the rain cloth and pull the fertilized horses, the wind stops!
A group of people scolded a few times, and then returned to the car again, and the convoy continued to move forward, but no one noticed, and there were a few more people in the team.
There are four more people in the team of more than five hundred, and it will not be too obvious. The convoy kept moving forward in a mighty way, and after nearly half an hour, it finally entered the camp of the reserve army.
The military camps in the Bailuan Continent are almost the same, one tent is ten people, and ten tents are one team. The tents were divided into groups with passages in between. Moreover, a large camp is divided into several sub-camps, and a large camp of 200,000 people is comparable to a medium-sized town!
The night time is not the best time to spy on the military, after all, everyone is resting, and what Xuanbao wants to know is in people's minds, and it must be known through conversation.
However, there is also a benefit, that is, it is easy to hide the figure, and after the four of them entered the camp, they found an opportunity to leave the team and hide behind a mound.
I heard Xue Ruo say that there are many people in the reinforcement army who belong to night owls, and they can meet by the Mekong River without sleeping all night, either practice or be on duty.
This is the sequelae of enlightenment, some people can stay up all night, like Xuanbao, who does not need to use rest to replenish their physical strength.
There were about 20,000 of these people, and the night defense of the entire battalion was handed over to them. Xuanbao's target is these people, because only they are the most and most convenient people to contact those poppy homeless people!
The camp on the edge of the Mekong River belongs to these people, Xuanbao and the three girls have already walked on the edge of the Mekong River, Luzhu squatted down, picked up a handful of river water with his hand, tasted it lightly, and then lifted his military uniform and looked at his snow-white arms.
Lu Zhu does not have the same perception of poison as Xiao Yin, nor does she have an extraordinary reaction to smells like Dan Niang, but she has a skill that others do not have, that is, she is the body of the medicine spirit, so she has a very strong reaction to poisons, if she encounters poisons, her body will be flushed with red spots, and a layer of pimples will grow, which is very obvious!
After a while, Lu Zhu's arm was calm as usual, without any pimples, and shook his head at Xuanbao, which means that the water is not poisonous.
Xuan Bao breathed a sigh of relief, what he was afraid of was that the head of the sect would attack the water source first, and then it would affect not one or two, and the entire battalion of the reserve army might be killed by him!
Now the water source is fine, and the vegetables in the car were checked in an instant in the team just now, and there is no problem. At least half of Xuanbao's heart has been relieved.
The four of them continued to walk forward, and as soon as they took two steps, Xuanbao lightened his steps and made a careful gesture to the third girl. Twenty paces ahead was a corner, and the bend was not very large, but the river bank blocked everyone's view.
Xuanbao had already heard the voices from there, and it should be a few sentries on duty. This river is also where they train, so there are usually sentries patrolling the riverbank, basically in groups of three, and the patrol length is about two miles.
There are several rows of willow trees by the river, which are quite dense, and many of the trees have traces of being climbed, indicating that people often come and go here. However, the place where those people were standing belonged to the most densely wooded place, Xuanbao originally thought that they were lazy there when they were tired of patrolling, but they didn't expect that after getting closer, they found that there were actually a lot of people over there!
In terms of breath, there are at least no less than a hundred! And there is a person standing guard around the corner, and he almost found the four Xuanbao!
Xuan Bao waved his hand at the third girl, and then pointed upward. The third girl understands that this is for everyone to go over the tree! Swallow and Yue'er are of course easy to climb, but Luzhu's skills have opened Xuanbao's eyes!
Originally, I thought that Lu Zhu, who was usually gentle and submissive, might be the weakest one among the imperial concubines, but her cultivation was not low, and she had also given Xuanbao a surprise before. But tonight Xuanbao was even more surprised, because he watched Luzhu climb the tree neatly and lightly with his hands and feet, without even making a sound, which was unbelievable.
Later, I thought that when I first saw Luzhu, the girl who sang and danced had actually shown super athletic talent, and later went to find Xuanbao alone, if there were no two strokes, how could it be possible!
It's not surprising to think about it, she was originally the identity of the divine concubine, if she didn't even have the ability to protect herself, how could she be a divine concubine? 10,000 years ago, it was because of the cold eyes of the divine concubine that it led to the tragedy of the death of both gods and demons, which shows that the divine skills of the divine concubine are not as uneven and weak as Xuan Bao imagined!
Quietly approaching the positions of those people from the tree, Xuanbao was the most daring, almost sitting on top of their heads!
He made a gesture to the three women in the back, and the four of them sat on the branches, listening to the speeches of the people below.
Xuan Bao just glanced at it, and he could already see that the more than 100 people below were all leaders in the reinforcement army. However, most of them are small leaders, such as commanders and captains, and there are no generals.
Obscured by the leaves, Xuanbao couldn't see the appearance of the people in front of him clearly, he should be the leader of these people, because everyone was fighting against a few of them!
One of them whispered: "It has been confirmed, all 100,000 people are dead, and not one is left! The head sect leader and the three sect leaders have also been killed, and their mission has failed! Brother Yi, what should we do now?"
The other snorted coldly and said, "I said a long time ago that they can't do anything! Even if Yuan Xiaosan is a human and demon body, so what? I don't understand anything, a group of rabble, and they still want to fight against the archers, that is, they are looking for death!"
The person who spoke before also said "um", and then said: "The most important thing is that they have changed their original intentions and have been used by the head of the sect! Yuan Xiaosan once told me that he only wants to block the military road and cut off contact with the Central Plains people, and he doesn't care about anything else. But then it was the head of the sect who asked us to go directly to the Styx, and said that it was our only chance to become gods, do you believe it?"
