Half a month has passed since the competition in the small courtyard, and during this time, the Assyrian army on the opposite side has not moved, and the Red Dragon Fortress has also ushered in a rare relaxation and leisure. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Through the battles in the field, these recruits also won the unanimous approval of the veterans, and they trained with the veterans every day, were on duty together, and quickly adapted to the life in the army. Jiang Du's strength also spread quickly among the soldiers, and now everyone in the fortress knew that this tall, seemingly dull recruit commander was a strong figure who could even clean up the commander of the eighth-level division, and every time he saw him, he couldn't help but show a look of admiration.

He Jun and Zheng Kui, the generals who fought side by side with Jiang Dao, were even more affectionate to Jiang Dao, if Jiang Dao hadn't stunned Wumengfu, both of them would probably have to be confessed in the wheat field, so in general, Jiang Dao still has a life-saving grace for them. Especially Zheng Kui, his eyes are facing the sky all day long, but for some reason, the more he looks at Jiang Du, the more pleasing he is, he walks around Jiang Du when he has nothing to do, shush the cold and ask for warmth, pull east and west, a pair of clay for the stove, grass for incense, kowtow to the rhythm of the handle.

However, in war, quiet days are always short-lived.

Early one morning, Jiang Dao, Shen Ying and other recruit commanders who had just finished training were summoned by Zheng Xiong to the meeting hall in the fortress, and when they arrived, they found that Tang Lan, He Jun, Zheng Kui and other generals at all levels had already arrived, but they all had solemn faces.

Seeing the expressions of everyone present, Jiang Du and the others also knew that something big was going to happen, so they hurriedly stepped forward to salute, and then stood in the corner, quietly waiting for the news of the legion commander Zheng Xiong.

"I summoned everyone here today to discuss important matters." Seeing that everyone was about to arrive, Zheng Xiong said with a serious expression:

"According to the report from the Beiyan secret agent, the armies of the West Island, Assyria, and Rus have been mobilized very frequently recently, and it is likely that there will be a series of large-scale military operations, so Marshal Jiang Lang ordered the troops at the front to pay close attention to the enemy's movements, and at the same time be prepared to meet the enemy's large-scale attack."

"A big attack?" Everyone suddenly let out a burst of exclamations, although the two sides have been fighting continuously for many years, but the scale is not large, and now when they hear the news at first glance, they are obviously a little unprepared.

"And in the past two days, we have sent a total of 20 scouts to the enemy camp to investigate, but none of them have returned safely, indicating that the enemy has begun to block the news in advance." Zheng Xiong said this, his tone was extremely heavy: "In this way, it seems that soon, there will be a big war. ”

"How weird? Why didn't they do it before the wheat was harvested? Tang Lan suddenly asked.

"The reason for this is not known at the moment, maybe something is wrong within them." Zheng Xiong thought for a while and said, and then changed the conversation:

"Another thing to inform everyone, the reinforcements from the rear will arrive here soon, and Tang Lan and Ji Mingxin will be responsible for the relevant contacts at that time."

"My lord, how many reinforcements are there?" Tang Lan asked.

"At least 10,000 people!" Zheng Xiong said, and everyone's mood eased a little after hearing it.

"But today, I convened everyone to discuss two issues!"

When everyone heard this, they hurriedly listened attentively.

"The first problem is the question of consolidating the defence. If the opponent is too numerous, we can only shrink our forces and concentrate on defense, so that it becomes a passive defense and is passively beaten. Although the Red Dragon Fortress is strong, it can't withstand the opponent's endless attacks. So find a way to prevent this from happening. The second problem is that I hope to organize an elite scout team as soon as possible to go to the enemy camp to investigate intelligence, this task is more dangerous, so it is better for everyone to think about what suitable people are. Zheng Xiong looked around and said in a deep voice.

As soon as the words fell, everyone's eyes at the scene focused on Jiang Du's body, and the faces of He Jun and Zheng Kui became a little ugly.

He Jun was a little angry at that time.

Nima! What is the right person? Isn't this lice on a bald head, obviously? You old fart Zheng is still pretending there!

Since the competition in the small courtyard, Zheng Xiong has a loud nickname - Zheng Lao Fart.

The recruit brigade belongs to the third division, that is to say, these fierce recruits are all soldiers under He Jun, since the arrival of Jiang Du, the combat effectiveness of the third division has soared in an instant, and He Jun's waist is much straighter than before, and now when he hears what Zheng Xiong means, it is obvious that he intends to let Jiang Du and them serve as scouts. However, judging from the fate of the previous 20 scouts, the other party has already laid a net around the camp, even if Jiang Du is strong, it is estimated that there is no return, and he will be sent to death in vain.

"Although Jiang Dao, Shen Ying and the others have good strength, they don't have any combat experience, I'm afraid they can't do the job of scouts!" He Jun scratched his head and said with an embarrassed expression.

The generals were silent, and there was silence in the room.

"General He, I understand your thoughts, but think about it, if even Jiang Du is in danger, if he changes to someone else, won't he have no return?" Zheng Xiong saw that He Jun rejected his idea in public, and he couldn't laugh or cry.

He Jun's face was cloudy and speechless. He knew that what Zheng Xiong said was the truth.

"I think it's better to think of a foolproof plan, and I can't let them die so rashly." Zheng Kui on the side also spoke.

"This time the stakes are high, no matter what, we have to find a way to understand each other's whereabouts, otherwise the situation is too passive." Zheng Xiong looked at everyone with burning eyes, he was forced to make this move, if he could think of another way, he also wanted to prevent Jiang Du from taking risks.

"General, the last general is willing to go!" A wooden voice suddenly sounded.

"Ginger Dumb!" He Jun stared at Jiang Du.

"It's just that there will be one condition at the end." Jiang Du smiled at He Jun, and said lightly at Zheng Xiong.

"What are the conditions, just say it!" Seeing Jiang Du's expression, Zheng Xiong's heart moved, thinking of Jiang Du's mysterious origin, maybe he really had something to do.

"First of all, I need a team of 100 people, and the commander of the team must be me. In addition, the team selection is up to me. ”

"No problem, I promise you!" Zheng Xiong was afraid that Jiang Dao would regret it, so he hurriedly agreed, not to mention that Jiang Dao's request was not too much.

"Tang Lan, after the meeting is dismissed, you will take Jiang Du to choose someone!"

"Yes!"

……

Three days later, a group of mighty soldiers arrived at the Red Dragon Fortress with a large amount of supplies, adding up to 13,000 men, including new recruits and veterans, as well as 3,000 Sun troops. To Zheng Xiong's surprise, the person in charge of leading the team turned out to be Uncle Jiang Liao. You must know that the Lieyang Army is one of the very few legions in Beiyan that has an independent number, and it belongs to the Central Army directly under the Beiyan Royalty, with extremely strong combat effectiveness.

After the reinforcements and supplies arrived, the Red Dragon Fortress was immediately busy, reinforcing the city defenses, overhauling equipment, counting supplies, and deploying manpower......

At the same time, a scout team composed of the elites of each battalion plus a few gentlemen also set off at night and headed for the enemy camp. (To be continued.) )
