Chapter 402: Candle Viewing Village

"Quickly repair the outpost, assemble a team of 100 scouts, and go to the front to investigate. ”

Chen San sat in the big tent with a contemplative expression, although the battle was a big victory, but the equipment in the army was damaged a lot.

The swords are still fine and have sufficient replenishment, but the arrows are becoming more and more scarce, and even if they can be recovered, they are still quite scarce.

After all, arrows are consumables, and if they are broken or broken, they cannot be reused.

"The subordinates receive the order. One of the lieutenants departed, ordered a hundred scouts outside the tent, and let the scouts set out in full gear.

They had learned from their prisoners at the post that they had discovered it by accident, and the generals felt that it was a precipitous place for a march.

Therefore, a team of 500 guards was added here to build an outpost to prevent Ye Xing and others in the fortress from retreating.

It's just that this camp was finally picked up by Chen San, and after being strengthened and repaired, it was enough to rely on this fortress to resist several times the enemy army.

Completely cut off the possibility of enemy troops marching from here, scouts have been dispatched, but Chen San has to continue to be busy with other things, sending a thousand soldiers to collect rubble in the nearby mountains and forests.

A thousand soldiers were sent to cut down trees and create one-off arrows, which were less powerful but better than nothing.

He then again ordered 2,000 soldiers to collect and use resources to fortify the fortified outpost as soon as possible to defend against the enemy.

In this way, nearly 5,000 soldiers moved in unison, and only more than 900 soldiers were left to patrol the town at various points in the outpost.

After everything was arranged, Chen San exhaled a heavy breath, and the tension in his heart was finally completely relaxed, just waiting for the hundred scouts to return.

Chen San was able to lay out a battle plan based on the information obtained by the scouts, but now was not the time to rest.

Chen San took out the communication jade talisman and felt the warmth in his hand, but he couldn't help but sigh slightly.

If he hadn't met Childe, I'm afraid he wouldn't know where he was suffering from cold and hunger at this time.

With a slight uprightness, Chen Sanqing held the communication jade talisman, organized a speech for a while, and then sent a message inside.

"Returning to Gongzi, Chen Sanxing lived up to his high expectations, and successfully returned after rounding, capturing the outpost on the remote mountain trail, leading the army of 5,000, and rejecting several times the enemy army outside the outpost. ”

The communication jade talisman shook slightly, and the information was transmitted, and Chen San gathered his thoughts and began to think about other things.

After taking this outpost, the Western Frontier Army may not be far behind in the short term, but if there is no news for a while, the Western Frontier Army will definitely send non-commissioned soldiers to check.

It seemed that he had to find out the situation with the group of soldiers, and after making up his mind, Chen San led the guards towards the place where the Western Frontier sergeants were imprisoned.

At the same time, on the mountain forest and high ground outside the outpost, a group of figures quietly appeared, the leader was dressed in white, and a group of fierce soldiers were followed by him.

"Brother, there are a lot of people here, could it be that they clashed with the demonic beasts on the road in the forest before?"

Mi Yue stared at the mercenary soldiers in the mountains and forests with a pair of wonderful eyes, obviously curious.

Mi Candle did not answer immediately, but looked carefully at the banner on the wooden village of the outpost.

I saw that the main flag in the center had a big western character written on it, and the rest of the flags had no text, only a little pink auspicious cloud pattern on it.

"Soldiers of the Western Army?" Mi Candle said softly, confused.

He saw the soldiers on the wooden village walking in a hurry, as if they were a little tired, and saw that the leather armor worn by the soldiers was a little messy, and some soldiers were sorting out their armor.

The rest of the soldiers were holding swords and staring out of the camp without squinting.

All this made Mi Zhu a little confused, to say that it was also early in the morning at this time, and the sun was shining on the sergeants of the army, but they were afraid that they would have woken up a long time ago.

But those soldiers guarding the wooden village really made people doubt whether their combat effectiveness was good, after all, many soldiers had not worn their armor properly.

To say that this is a soldier guarding the outpost, such a look is too embarrassing.

If you want to use four words to describe the soldiers on the wooden village, it is that the army is not in order.

And Mi Candle still has a little doubt, that is, the movement of the corpse at the gate of the wall.

The soldier who carried the corpse and the armor worn by the corpse were all the same, what was going on?

Mi Candle was a little confused for a while, but when he turned his gaze back to the soldiers who cut down trees and collected rubble, Mi Candle had some guesses.

The gate of the wooden village was open, and the soldiers guarding the town were untidy and somewhat ill-fitting, and there were dead soldiers in front of the gate, as well as soldiers cutting down trees in the forest.

All of them are talking about a problem, that is, a big battle has just taken place at the outpost in front of them, and the soldiers guarding the wooden village at this time are not the men and horses of the original Western Frontier Army.

As for the civil strife in the Western Army, Mi Zhu would not think so, after all, the clothes of the soldiers who cut down trees in the forest had already been recognized by him.

The clothes worn by the soldiers who cut down the trees were no different from those worn by the soldiers buried near the corpses of the beasts.

"The outpost in front of me seems to have been attacked by the people who were in the mountains and forests before. Mi Zhu made a decision in his heart, so he opened his mouth to respond.

"What the young master said is very true, and so do we. ”

"The young master is high. ”

"But we don't know what kind of force this group of people is, they have no banner, and they have no identity information exposed. ”

For a while, the big men murmured softly.

They need to go to the battlefield of Youyuan Fortress to observe the situation, but there are quite a few people in this outpost in front of them.

Just the people who are looking at the trees in a hot way seem to them to be no less than hundreds.

If you add the soldiers they saw collecting rubble, I am afraid that there are more than a thousand.

Looking at the wooden village again, at this time, the guards above have already sorted out their clothes and armor, almost three steps, one post, five steps and one sentry, and they are full of morale.

Roughly speaking, the number of people is only not less than two hundred, and the number of soldiers in the outpost is estimated to be five hundred or nearly a thousand.

If this is the case, I am afraid that there are nearly 3,000 guards at this outpost.

And these soldiers are all murderous one by one, obviously not yet out of the previous combat state.

On the side of Mi Candle, there are only more than 2,000 people in the full house, and there are many snakes and insects in the forest, and their soldiers are not adapted to the water and soil, plus the interference of snakes and insects.

There are only 1,900 people with complete combat power, and only half of the other hundred or so people are available.
