Chapter 109: A Long Journey

Two days at most, after staying in the canyon camp for two days, I will have to lead the army to Hailing County, waiting for the opportunity to move, if the defenders of Nanwang County come in these two days, we will have to make another resistance, hoping that Nanwang County will not look at us, so that we will have time and opportunity to act.

Time has also proved that the White Turban Army did not take us in its eyes, and put all the body and mind into the huge Donghai City, as long as Donghai City is captured, the entire Donghai County will be the White Turban Army, and when the time comes, what big waves can the conscription army make, and the troops will be gone.

A piece of good news was delivered to the camp, and in the past two days, some previously scattered sergeants have come back one after another, and they have learned from their mouths that Hailing County and Nanwang County are empty, and they also found out that the White Turban Army's grain transport troops are about to come to Nanwang County, which has further increased my confidence in sneak attack to win, so I made such an urgent decision.

The sergeants who brought back this good news were three fishermen from Donghai County, the first batch of conscripted new army sergeants, who had no time to escape when guarding the Gang Mountain, became prisoners of the White Turban Army, and later because two of them were seriously ill, they were not transferred to the White Turban Army as pawns, but stayed in Hailing County to do chores.

When the large-scale White Turban Army raised troops and sent them to Nanwang County, they took advantage of the lax guards of the White Turban Army to escape, because they were familiar with the route of Nanwang County, Hailing County, and fled all the way, but they actually returned to the canyon camp safely, found me, and told me a confidential news they heard in Hailing County.

I was overjoyed to learn that the White Turban Army was about to transport a large amount of grain to the camp of the White Turban Army in Donghai City, and I did not care about the hasty rectification and training for only two days, so I announced that I would withdraw the camp and march to Hailing County.

The march is a hard job, and there is no civilian man to transport food and equipment, all the hard work is done by the sergeant himself, and it is a war, and it is a civilian man, once it encounters an ambush, it is a fatal blow, so that you can't bring too much food and baggage, and strive to sneak attack, and then retreat.

Therefore, I tried to lead the army to the southern wilderness, and led the way with the three fishermen who had escaped, among them Gang Bing, who was quite bold, and I was quite impressed with him, and if sincerity were not a problem, I think he would have shown his talent and ability in the army.

The farther and farther away from Nanwang County, the closer they got to Hailing County, their hearts became nervous and cautious, especially the upper-level flags, thinking that if they encountered a large force of white turban troops in Hailing County, they were afraid that they would not be able to eat and walk around, and there would be no food and grass supply at that time, and there would be a dead end.

Escaping from the canyon camp in such a hurry, I plan not to accept the order of Donghai County, according to my prediction, Donghai County will definitely send an order for us to reinforce Donghai City, and it must be to defend the city to the death, which is a thankless job.

After a day's march, the sergeants all saw the fatigue, the fire moon sergeants are okay, they are all used to it, but the conscripted sergeants are not good, many of the sergeants are extremely poor in physical fitness, if I want to choose the sergeants, I will definitely not choose them to send them to death.

"Let's camp here and get a good night's rest today." As soon as my words were spoken, the sergeants gave orders one by one.

The whole stretch of the procession suddenly dispersed, looking for their own plots to set up camp, and for a time, the whole barren meadow was busy with sergeants coming and going, digging pits, driving piles, erecting tents, and being very busy.

The sergeants walked towards the lake in the southeast corner, holding pots and pans in their hands, washing and washing, and fetching water, looking at the scene of the military camp camping and setting up a village, lighting a fire and cooking rice.

The sun sets, the yellowish light is sprinkled on the barren grass, an evening afterglow, the lonely and quiet dusk moment is coming, a wisp of cooking smoke rises in this barren grass everywhere in the uninhabited place, it looks very strange, if someone suddenly sees so many people appear here, it is strange not to be scared half to death, but unfortunately, there is no human figure here.

Occasionally, passing by a lonely farmer, it is also full of dilapidation, and the courtyard is littered with hoes, dustpans, brooms, dust, no marks, cobwebs on the windowsill, no smell of people, and the stench of domestic animals.

These farmers have also suffered such damage, could it be that the White Turban Army did it, if the White Turban Army did it, I am very happy in my heart, if it is a bandit and grass coward, then it will be a great disappointment.

Since I became the battalion leader of the levy army, during the training and march, I and the other Fire Moon sergeants have been able to integrate with the levy army quite smoothly, and I have not encountered any major conflicts, this result is very gratifying, these low-level sergeants of Donghai County still have no prejudice against me Fire Moon people, and those who are biased are those high-level people who are inclined for their own interests.

The wind is strong, the night wind hits the body, gets into the clothes, the skin is a little cool, in the night sky, the dark clouds in the blurred vision go low, and the movement is abnormal, it seems that the rainstorm is coming.

In my tent, several of the general flags sat on a small wooden bench, with a calm expression, as if they were very relaxed, no one spoke, and no one had the word anxious written on their faces.

Even Huo Gaoling, who was in charge of defense, was not nervous, if there was anything wrong in the defense, he would be the first to take responsibility, and now approaching the rear troops of the White Turban Army, he didn't even go to inspect the defense post at the moment, and he actually stayed here and wasted time.

I didn't warn him that he had an extra stool here, and I have to say that it was very strange, although such a mistake was small, but it was very fatal, and once it went wrong, the consequences were unimaginable.

Huolu leaned on the stake support, holding a sharp knife in his hand, if people who are familiar with casting will see that although the material of this knife is special, it is made of meteorite outside the sky, and it is forged after thousands of tempers, it is a famous folding knife, the knife body is full of patterns, it is very peculiar, and the meritorious nobles of the royal capital often wear this kind of knife, a symbol of status.

Huo Lu didn't do anything with this knife, he cut his hard and deformed nails there, if there is anyone here who has the ugliest nails, it is undoubtedly Huo Lu, once he was said by others not to care, but today I don't know how, he wants to cut the shears carefully.

The only one who is active is the Demon Moon, this guy is always in a crazy training, walking back and forth in the narrow camp tent, gesturing moves from time to time, these days, my opinion that the training is not effective and far from enough has greatly stimulated him, in order to make me have nothing to say, he pondered that he should find a more powerful set of combat skills.

I pretended not to see all this, and in fact I didn't, because I kept my eyes closed, and I couldn't figure out why they were staying here, and I was too embarrassed to drive them away.

The tent was suddenly lifted, and two people walked in, and the voice of labor sounded: "I checked them one by one, and they all cheered up, and no one was lazy and lazy." "It turned out that Lao Guo went to inspect instead of Huo Gaoling.

Everyone listened to the voice, and stared at Lao Guo, hearing him say this, a little bit of interest in the heart fell to the bottom again, still no one spoke, as if all this was expected, there was no difference between saying it and not saying it.

Seeing that everyone was so uninterested, the fire thin tow behind him said: "It's windy outside, if nothing else, I'm afraid there will be heavy rain." ”

The news immediately surprised everyone, and still no one spoke, but everyone fell into deep thought because of this sentence.

I reminded, "Let's all go back and rest." ”

The lights burning in the camp were all extinguished one after another, leaving only a few places at the entrance of the camp with firewood, and the flames were not very strong, and there was not much firewood added, and there were sergeants standing on the side, obviously standing guard and shifting.
