Chapter 149: White Scatter (3)
In the August weather, I lay motionless in the grass nest for several hours, and finally even the cracks of my bones itched. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Zhou Qian has quietly changed several postures, and even Liu Xiaoqi can't help but move. Only Cao Jinliang seemed to have no feeling in his limbs, and he had a long grass stalk in his mouth, and from a distance, it was a pile of withered grass that was no different from the next one. Hearing Zhou Qian speak, he said in a vague voice: "If these people are smart, they should run as soon as they find out that we are in Baisasho......
"It's hard to say. If they really have three or five thousand men and horses, why can't they fight a dozen? Zhou Qian couldn't help but refute Cao Jinliang, and at the same time, quietly, as slightly as possible, he was about to change the position of his left leg - but before he could move, he heard Cao Jinliang beside him say in a cold whisper: "Looking down from the opposite city pass, even if the grass moves, you can see it clearly." Team Officer Zhou, you should bear with it a little bit, and don't bother the brothers. ”
This made Zhou Qian's old face redden, and his legs immediately stopped in place in an awkward posture. Liu Xiaoqi had the intention to play a round for Zhou Qian, and hurriedly took Cao Jinliang's words and asked: "Officer Zhou has a bit of truth in what he said, let's gather a battalion of soldiers and horses, and there are several times more than us on the other side, if we can make careful arrangements, we can't fight." ”
"That's how you learned your military studies? Go back and find the commander of the thousand to be punished. Cao Jinliang didn't look at Liu Xiaoqi's immediately purple face, his attention still stayed on the opposite city pass, and said casually: "Let's not talk about how much water is in these three or five thousand people, just say what is the benefit of eating our other party?" At most, you can get some weapons and armor, but you have to kill a lot of people in your own house, and you have to attract the attention of the army, and the gains outweigh the losses. If I am the leader of the other party, when I learn that the official army is advancing, I will immediately lead people to run towards the barbarians, and I will never entangle with the official army more. ”
The three of them watched for a while, and quietly withdrew from the hillside while the people above the city were busy eating at noon. As soon as he couldn't look at Chengguan, Zhou Qian couldn't wait to jump on the spot and move his joints, while shouting: "Suffocate me!" ”
Liu Xiaoqi also clasped his hands and turned his wrists, and then stood on his toes and moved his ankles. They had been on the hillside for several hours, and now they only felt stiff and sore, and their muscles and joints were stiff and sore. It's just that he still has something in his heart, and when the sour numbness subsides, he asked Cao Jinliang: "We have been watching for a long time, but Xiao Qi is shallow, but he doesn't see any fame." I don't know if Team Officer Zhou and Adjutant Cao saw something? ”
Zhou Qian shook his arm, frowned, and thought for a while, and said cautiously: "It's really far away, and it would be better if you could get closer." There is indeed something wrong with this white place, after two or three hours, there are more than 100 people dressed as people coming and going, and the clothes are not all men, which is a little strange. It's just that our position is not good, and we really can't see the situation in the city pass, which is really not good. ”
Cao Jinliang glanced at him, bowed his head slightly, and looked at the reckless team officer with a little admiration in his heart. After Zhou Qian finished speaking, he stretched his muscles and bones, and said expressionlessly: "We watched for more than two hours, there are one or twenty people out of the city, although they are dressed as ordinary people, but almost all of them are young and strong men, and women are rare, even if there are a few women dressed in nondescript clothes, I guess, I am afraid that they are spies sent out by bandits who want to find out the news; At the top of the city, there were only seven or eight soldiers, and there were no instruments or other things, which is supposed to be the reason why the thieves who occupied Baisa were so light. ”
Liu Xiaoqi nodded convincingly: "Since Adjutant Cao said this, it must be so." ”
The three of them talked as they walked, and after a while, they saw the anxious guards. The three officers insisted on going to reconnoiter themselves, and left the guards at the bottom of the hillside, and when they saw that they had returned safely, the guards finally put their hearts back in their stomachs. A group of people were all on foot, and at this moment they quietly walked the path, and without speaking, they buried their heads in the road, and ran all the way towards the brigade.
Hou Yonggui did not choose to meet with the Xianzi camp after all. However, he did not crash headlong into Bai Sasuo in a daze, but chose a small path, wanting to go around the back-"Before leaving, the military gate instructed us not to be reckless, just take a look at the surrounding situation. Hou Yonggui rode on the horse and said with one heart and one heart, he had his own reasoning, "We are not familiar with this place in Baisa, so it is better to be careful." ”
The general praised him for his prudence and asked, "What's that...... What should I do with the Manifest Word Camp? We are now separated from the Xianzi Battalion, and we can't communicate with each other, and we don't know each other very well here, so we still have to join forces together. ”
"Didn't the Xianzi camp say that they would bow down at the fork in the road near Baisaso?" Hou Yonggui said casually: "Let's get to the place in a while, just ask someone to talk to Li Yongzhong." ”
"Mr. Qian." The military general is a steady person, and after thinking about it carefully from beginning to end, he didn't hold back after all, and persuaded again: "We came all the way here to find out the traces of the remnants of the Lotus Sect. If you follow the method of Qianzong, just look at it from a distance, what can you come up with? I can't say that I have to think of getting into it. Otherwise, when we go back and see the military gate, how will we explain? ”
Hou Yonggui was speechless for a while. This general has a different identity, and he is a close relative of Hou Liangzhu, the chief military officer, for decades, and he was specially sent to his side to assist. has followed Hou Yonggui for seven or eight years, and he has won his trust. Hearing him say this now, even though Hou Yonggui was impatient to the extreme, he still said to him patiently: "Hou Gui, according to the thief surnamed Guan, the remnants of the White Lotus Sect are as little as two or three thousand, and as many as four or five thousand, which one can we fight now?" If you alarm the other party, we don't think it's enough to stuff people's teeth! This white place was lost to the barbarians for many years, even if Xu Junmen recovered Chishui a few days ago, he never sent troops here, so if there are people now, who else is not a thief!? So it's not really a problem to just take a look. ”
Seeing that Hou Gui was going to persuade him again, he put a blank on his face and shouted: "Hou Gui! The military gate said that he was out of the house, which one did he listen to?! Although I am the nephew of the military family, I am also a real property manager of the imperial court! I'm afraid your hand is too long! ”
Hou Gui sighed in his heart, but he didn't dare to say anything. He shut his mouth, Hou Yonggui was naturally happy and quiet, and immediately ordered to copy the path and go straight to Baisa, and reluctantly called two people to find the traces of the Xianzi camp, his so-called White Lotus Sect did not think so, although he didn't say it, but in his heart he thought that those so-called evil. The remnants of the sect are just temporarily sheltering displaced people in the White Place, and as long as they see the banner of the Xiangzi Camp, most of them will be so frightened that they will immediately run away from the White Place.
He rode on his horse slowly, and there were some unspeakable thoughts in his heart, since the military merit was beheaded first, if it was really a group of rebels who trespassed into the military city, it would be very good to add a few more copies to the merit book. Thinking of the smugness, the corners of Hou Yonggui's mouth turned up slightly uncontrollably, but he felt undignified, so he pressed the corners of his mouth down, and finally turned into a slightly hideous and distorted expression.
"The two battalion heads, together in their early 2,000s, are on the left and the other on the right...... There is a small city pass in the middle...... If this thing reaches the ears of Qianhu, I am afraid that it will make him laugh and lose his big teeth. Feng Baoqun had nothing to do for a while, and gossiped with Zheng Guocai, "We are good everywhere, but after all, we are young, and we are more temperamental." ”
Zheng Guocai was very dissatisfied with Feng Baoqun's words. He grabbed the hilt of the waist knife with one hand, straightened the wrist guard with the other, and retorted without raising his head: "If we martial artists don't even have this bit of temperament, this is too bold. It's not interesting to say this, but I'm wondering now, what kind of charter are we going to have? Fight, can't fight, go, can't go, is it really necessary to live and die here? ”
"It won't." Feng Baoqun looked left and right, approached Zheng Guocai and said in a low voice: "Let's bring a total of ten days of food, and then remove the delay on the road, Dingtian can spend three days, and we have to go to Chishui immediately to meet the army." Otherwise, you'll have to beg all the way back. ”
Zheng Guocai sighed heavily, he had a complicated view of Li Yongzhong, although he was a little unconvinced, but he also admitted that President Qian, who was temporarily appointed as a battalion officer, had a few brushes in his hands. It's just that now more than a thousand people are stopping here with nothing to do, and there is no plan for the next step, which is really anxious!
was turning around in place, Zheng Guocai suddenly caught a glimpse of a soldier hurrying over, and when he saw the two officers, he immediately bowed and hugged his fists, and said: "Mr. Qian invited the two officers to discuss matters with the Chinese army." ”
The two of them glanced at each other, and they both found that they were relieved to each other - this young Qian Zong finally couldn't sit still! They immediately followed the soldiers, and after a while, they saw that almost all the officers had gathered, and next to Li Yongzhong stood Cao Jinliang and others, who had been ordered to go out to inquire about the situation, and Zhou Qian was also standing.
"Adjutant Cao, you can tell the big guy about the situation you found before." Li Yongzhong didn't talk nonsense, and immediately pointed to the officers and said, "Let's talk about it in detail, let's take a closer look." ”
"Yes." Cao Jinliang agreed neatly, and then explained in detail: "The three of us have been in ambush on the hillside opposite Baisa for more than two hours, although it is not too clear, but it is also a gain. The city is not big, it is close to the mountains and rivers, and if you want to attack it, it is very difficult for us to be a little bit. The city gate seems to be guarded, and the battlements above the city gate also show a few people, too far away to see the weapons clearly. There are people in the clothes of the people who come in and out, and there are always one or twenty and not a few. Speaking of this, he sighed and said apologetically, "The rest...... Because it's too far away, and the time is too short, I really can't see anything. ”
"The color of the people?" Surprisingly, Zhao Wancai, who has always been low-key, was the first to ask, "Have you ever seen how tall or short?" Is it male or female? Are there old and weak women and children? ”
Cao Jinliang looked at Liu Xiaoqi, and Liu Xiaoqi said knowingly: "Xiaoqi is young, his eyesight is better, and he can see more carefully." The height and height are almost the same, and there are a few people dressed in women's clothes, but there are no old and weak women and children. He thought for a while, and added a little detail: "There is no equipment on the city pass, although we are far away, but Xiao Qi dares to be sure that there are only a few people on the city pass, and nothing else." ”
Zhao Wancai nodded and stopped talking.
A few more officers asked a few more questions in turn, but they were all ordinary questions. Then everyone's eyes were focused on Li Yongzhong. Now this situation can only be decided by him, the current supreme commander of the Xianzi Battalion. The scene fell silent for a while, and everyone remained silent, only staring at him with a pair of eyes, waiting for him to give orders with bated breath.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the situation of Baisa is unknown now, and now I have three methods." Li Yongzhong paused, looked around at everyone, raised a finger, and said slowly: "First, now let's hold our troops still, and wait until evening, and send someone to quietly infiltrate to explore the truth and reality." It's just that we don't know anything about the situation inside, and if we rush in, once there is a change, the brother who enters will die. ”
He raised his second finger: "Second, our investigation today is not completely in vain, when it gets late, quietly leave here and go directly to Chishui to join the army." The military gate said in advance when we set off, and this trip is mainly for reconnaissance and visitation, and we should not act rashly. So even if we just leave now, it's not too much. ”
After saying this, no one among the officers spoke, only looked at him closely, waiting for Li Yongzhong to say the third method. He slowly erected his third finger, his eyes lit up, and he said word by word, "Three...... While the people inside are not guarded, let's wait until it gets dark, send a strange army around the mountain, and hang a rope from above and slide into the white sash! Then the frontal feint cooperated, and then took the opportunity to grab the city gate! ”
When he finished speaking categorically, his voice still echoing, and the officers looked at each other, and soon there was a little commotion. Feng Baoqun frowned and shook his head, not hiding his disdain for the third method at all: "This is a risk!" Mr. Qian also said, even if we go back now, it will be useless! But if we follow what Mr. Qian said, we don't have any siege equipment, and we have to make a feint in the night! Not to mention, the strange soldiers who went in from the top of the mountain could not be achieved without it, and it would take at least one or two hundred people to succeed, but this was a child's play on the lives of the brothers! ”
"Let's go through this hard time, and then we end up with those few words and go back empty-handed!?" Zhou Qian retorted without thinking, and he said loudly to the officers: "Brothers, we have suffered a lot along the way, and seeing that the opportunity to make a contribution is just around the corner, are you willing to go back?!" Let me start by saying that my Zhou cannon is unwilling! I have seen it with my own eyes, and there are many ruins! Mr. Qian is right, as long as he acts well, he will definitely be able to catch the people inside off guard! ”
"Shut up!" Feng Baoqun made Zhou Qian so angry that his beard turned up for a while, and he drank and said, "Zhou Cannon, when can you change this reckless temperament!?" Achievement?! That's a fight for life! If you know the inner situation now, you don't need to say that Mr. Qian, my old Feng is the first to lead the team! But what's going on in there? How many centaurs are there? How about weapons? I don't know anything about it! What if there is an ambush inside? I don't know anything, but with an open mouth is a beating! You Zhou Qian didn't care if he died, but he didn't have to involve so many innocent brothers! (To be continued.) )
