Chapter 660: Trivia and Arrival
After one night, when the sky was bright, the clouds rose, and when he just came out of the tent, he also saw Xiahou Yuan and Xiahoudun coming out of the tent on the side. Only Sun Jian, from the very beginning, was outside the tent.
It's not that Sun Jian didn't rest, it's that several people have already divided the time of the vigil clearly. There is no Yunting in between, and these private soldiers basically only listen to Xiahou Yuan, Xiahou Yuan, and Sun Jian.
So the three of them, Xiahou Yuan kept watch in the first half of the night, Xiahou Yuan kept watch in the middle of the night, and Sun held on to the second half of the night. Yun Ting woke up in the morning, and when he walked out of the tent, he saw Sun Jian at a glance.
What he also knew was that the three of them were basically sleeping with armor on. This kind of vigilance, I don't know how many generals will be embarrassed. That kind of state of being ready to fight at any time is not something that anyone can do.
Otherwise, there would not have been so many generals in the Three Kingdoms who were trampled in the middle of the night and were killed by rushing into the camp tent of the Chinese army before even putting on their armor.
The truth is the truth, but in fact, when it comes to doing it, not many people choose to do it. Yun Ting once slept with Jia, not to mention that kind of taste, the whole body was not strong when he got up the next day, and his body was sore everywhere.
Speaking of vigils, this is also a habit. In this wilderness, at least Yun Ting thought that there would be no enemy, but Sun Jian and the others still decided to do so much to spend part of their rest time to ensure complete safety. This is something that makes Yun Ting feel ashamed.
It's not that he won't do this in wartime, but now it's not wartime, and Sun Jian and the three of them still do this, which is admirable. It was also because Sun Jian and them were so serious that Yun Ting slept exceptionally well, and he didn't have to worry about any accidents.
Whether it's a person or some beast, under the control of these three big guys, if you dare to come, you will only die.
One after another, the soldiers resting in the tent also walked out of the tent. In addition to the three-man vigil, many of the soldiers also kept vigil in the middle of the night. It's just that there are rotations, how long a person keeps, how long someone will come to replace, and so on, there are strict time limits.
As the last soldier came out of the tent, he began to dismantle the tent, tidy it up, bundle it up, and wait to take it with him when he left. This break has completely come to an end.
Inside the camp, the smoke from the campfire had not yet cleared, and some soldiers had begun to light the fire again.
Soldiers were in charge of making fires, boiling raw water, cooking, and so on, and they were busy. Early in the morning, many of the soldiers were already hungry and needed a full meal before they could move on.
After eating this meal, the next meal is the next one, and it is impossible to stop and eat a hot mouthful. This was followed by a rapid march, and only at noon, when the sun was at its fiercest, would they stop, eat dry food, drink and drink, and wait until the sun had passed a little before they would resume the march.
The next complete rest is only until the evening. By then, though, they should have been much closer to the destination that the clouds had delineated.
The camp of the war madness also became noisy at the moment when the day just dawned. No different from Yunting's side, the fighters also began to pack up their camps.
In the projection, they were only half a day's distance away from Yunting's side. So this time, the tents in this camp, the players are going to take them down.
For any soldier who has served in the army and participated in battles, no matter how inconspicuous a resource in the eyes of others. Without affecting the combat effectiveness, they will try to collect it as much as possible and carry it with them.
Because you don't know what lies ahead, what kind of predicament you're in, and what you're going to be missing. Who knows if something inconspicuous and of little value will be the key to your survival on the battlefield?
Veterans are usually stingy and don't want to give up anything.
Because they had an extra half a day's journey, they would arrive at the assembly site earlier. When the time comes, a larger camp will have to be built for everyone to rest, not only for the next operation, but also for the preparation before the war.
Wait for the enemy to wear themselves out.
The war maniac didn't know when, how, and in what state the enemy would come, and he didn't know any of that. All he knows is that he must face it in the best condition, and this is the right thing.
You don't need to care about how powerful the enemy is, to guess so many unknown things, and the more you think about it, the more panicked you become. It's better to put all your efforts on improving your own state, so that no matter how strong the enemy is, your own strength is enough to have the strength to fight.
There are some things that are universal, both in this time period and in the current empire.
"War Maniac, how many of your horses can you borrow here?" The toad that ate the phoenix ran in front of the war madness and asked out loud.
"Absolutely. But there are only a few horses, so if you want to use them, you can take them all. The war maniac replied without thinking.
War horses are one of the most important resources in this era, in the Eastern Han Dynasty, after the Han family has lost control over most of the areas suitable for raising war horses, the number of war horses has decreased sharply, and the quality has declined. Otherwise, in the Western Han Dynasty, it was a period when the Han cavalry and the Hun cavalry competed, and it reached a peak during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
With the ability of war madness, there are not many war horses that can be obtained. Don't think that the system will refresh a lot of horse thieves riding war horses for you to brush war horses, in fact, those horse thieves who have been killed by war madness, many of them are riding horses. And the horse thieves, it's all in small batches, small batches. In battle, it will accidentally cause damage to the horses, and then there are only those left for people to ride, and there are fewer war horses to participate in the battle.
It didn't work, the number of horses he had collected, thrown in, like a stone thrown into a large lake, rippled and soon disappeared.
Under the cavalry charge in a group, there was no corresponding, and a sufficient number of cavalry confronted it, and almost only one was defeated.
"Oh, that's good." The toad that eats the phoenix has already set its sights on the war horse that the war madman is carrying, and now it is just a politeness to ask.
Of course he won't lead the war horse and run away! How could he be that kind of person when he ate the phoenix's toad, what he wanted to do was the task that Yun Ting had given him, that is, to investigate Dong Zhuo's movements, and keep an eye on Dong Zhuo's actions along the way, and report back in time when they were about to come.
When the phoenix-eating toad was about to turn around and walk towards the war horse, the war madness stopped him.
"If you can bring it back, bring a few more war horses, and it's best to bring them all." The tone of the war maniac also revealed a little helplessness.
Those four war horses, don't look at only four, but they are all good horses! He brought four war horses for reconnaissance, and for scouts, it was definitely not too bad.
The war maniac really has some flesh pain, and he doesn't know that firewood and rice are expensive, and there are too few channels to get a good horse, so naturally he won't say anything you can use casually, and if you use it, you don't need to return it.
The toad that ate the phoenix stopped, turned around, clenched the palm of his right hand into a fist, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, you can rest assured of my ability to eat the phoenix's toad." When the time comes, you will definitely bring back all your war horses, and there will be no one missing. ”
While saying that, the toad who ate the phoenix had secretly calculated it in his heart. There are always some surprises along the way, right? There are some accidents, but it is not someone as capable as him who can prevent it from happening! So, if you can't bring back one or two war horses, that's understandable.
Watching the toad that ate the phoenix leave, he didn't express any objection to the fact that he was the only one to scout the war madness. One person and four horses are enough, and the distance back and forth must be calculated. When necessary, it is necessary to change trains and deliver the news back in a timely manner, which is something that cannot be done by a horse.
As the sun rises and the whole world is filled with sunlight, a large number of players also wake up from their sleep. Although some players do not have a tent and can rest in the tent, they still have the necessary blankets prepared.
For a moment, various colored blankets flew, and the dust on them was thrown off, and the players took the blankets back into the player's package. Some people didn't even eat, so they just took out the dry food and followed the players who had already started to move away.
Players woke up one after another and followed one after another, with the guidance of the flow of people, even if the players who got up late, they could not keep up with the progress.
Players can feel physically exhausted, but mentally excited. A night's rest, in the state of sleep, have been offline, handed over to the system hosting, but no one wants to stay and suffer the pain of sleeping in the open.
Although it is troublesome, players, everyone has become more and more curious about the goal of the mission, and more motivated. In a series like this, especially now that the mission objectives are a few question marks, the rewards will definitely be very large in the end.
By the time they completed the first ring of the mission, the experience points they received were already a very considerable amount of experience points, and this was just the most basic mission goal of rushing.
Either way, it's not going to be too easy! How simple can the tasks released by Cao Cao be?
can do tasks, collect rewards, and get in touch with Cao Cao. This transaction, many players have calculated very clearly, and they will make a profit without losing money.
No one thought that the mission would fail, so many players, in addition to the five thousand players who accepted the mission, I don't know how many people followed behind. With so many people, it's enough to fight a small local battle, what else is there to be afraid of, there is a lot of strength in numbers!
Marching, a famous Warrior player was marching on the road as early as when the sun came out completely. Unlike ordinary players, many players are still lazy and lazy, looking east and west along the way, like an outing.
There is no comparison at all, one is to carry out this as a task, and the other is to treat this as a play, there is not much comparison.
Running, running quickly in the mountains, one after another, the queue is very neat, without the slightest chaos. At the forefront is a group of war maniacs, whether it is a dream god machine, or a cat and a sword with blood, they are very accustomed to this speed.
Not to mention Zhu Hou and Tai Shi Ci. The former is also a person who carries a heavy sword all day long, and the latter is one of the top generals in the Three Kingdoms, and there will be no situation where he can't keep up with people.
Silent, efficient. No one talks to each other, everyone puts their minds completely on the control of their bodies, controlling their breathing, controlling the laws of their feet and palms.
A little bit of adjustment, a little bit of continuation, gradually accumulates this into a kind of physical inertia.
When people are running, as long as they are willing to persevere, they can always run until they are completely unable to run. Once you stop halfway, it will be very difficult to run again, at least for that long.
As time passed, a large number of players slowed down a bit, and the men led by the war maniac were the fastest, and soon after noon, they had already reached the designated place. And Sun Jian, Yun Ting and others have gradually caught up, surpassing those players, and it is expected that they can arrive at nightfall.
A large number of players took the official road, which attracted the attention of many aborigines, and many aborigines began to guard against these players. For aliens, they are always in a state of vigilance, and if they can stay away from aliens, they will be farther away.
With the attention of a large number of players, the movement of the other two elite soldiers was completely unaffected. On the way, some farmers and hunters saw their traces, but they were also directly ignored, anyway, they could not affect the movement of the team, and let it go.
"Let's start camping." The war maniac looked at the clearing in front of him and said loudly.
The location chosen is just right, halfway up an unknown mountain, looking down, you can see some of the official road, and at the same time there is a function of hiding traces, in a slightly farther position, there is also a mountain spring, the war madness decisively chose here.
They don't have to stay for a day or two, it depends on Dong Zhuo's speed, if they come quickly, the time they stay will naturally decrease, and if they come slowly, it also means that they will stay here longer.
His players set up camp again, clearing the bushes and sprinkling some realgar powder around the edges to get rid of snakes and insects. This time there are a lot of tents needed, and they have been prepared in advance, in addition to the tents after the dismantling of the previous camp on their backs, they also have some in their packages, so they don't have to worry about the problem that there will be no place to live when all the people are here.
Now, as long as the people behind arrive, the first part of the plan will also be implemented. The war maniac won't forget that there are so many players down there, and these people will be excellent sappers when the time comes.
