0588: Enemy forces arrive

"Xiao Chen, I'm relieved that you have this idea." Tigano's tone became more cheerful, and he said, "There is one more thing, Commander-in-Chief Wang Botao called me, and he asked me to mention you. ”

"Oh? What can he fart? When Wang Botao was mentioned, Xiao Chen felt unhappy in his heart.

"Hehe, just say it in front of me, but don't say it in front of him, he's the most cautious person......" Tiganor laughed and persuaded.

"I said the same thing to his face, what can he do with me?" Xiao Chen said arrogantly.

"Oh?" Tigano figured out the joints at once, he thought to himself why Wang Botao wanted him to say those words to Xiao Chen, the reason was that he had been suffocated in front of Xiao Chen.

"Say what?" Xiao Chen was tired and wanted to find a place to think about it and lick his wounds alone.

"Wang Botao asked me to tell you that you are still young and promising, don't give your life on the battlefield, if the war doesn't go well, you can run for your life alone."

"That's what he meant?" Xiao Chen asked incredulously, "He asked me to be a deserter?" ”

"That's what I mean, Xiao Chen, no matter who it's for, you can't have an accident in this battle......"

"But you're ready to die in the line of duty?" Xiao Chen suddenly raised his voice and asked rhetorically.

"The old man is old, and he always has to take a good lead for the empire, but you are different, you are still young, and you have greater responsibilities...... Child, you should live for the sake of those of us who have spilled blood on the battlefield. ”

"There is no logic in saying this." Xiao Chen smiled: "You let me run for my life, what about my three thousand soldiers?" Just let them stay here? What do you make me think? Is it possible for me to do it? ”

"Child, think about Liang Yuechen." Tiganor said in a stern tone.

Liang Yuechen ...... It turns out that you first talked about Liang Yuechen, and you originally meant to wait here? You're saying that I can't rest assured and it's hard to make decisions. ”

Xiao Chen exhaled a long breath, only to feel that his heart was full of unhappiness.

Of course Xiao Chen didn't think about it, it can be said that he never thought about dying on the battlefield, if the Xiaocai battalion was really wiped out, he would never be buried, he was not only afraid of death, but he also felt that he had something to do and couldn't die.

After talking to Digano ambiguously, and turning off the call, Xiao Chen touched his chin and thought deeply as if he was in a daze.

"Your Excellency, Lord Commander......" Yun Lang whispered behind him.

"If you have something to say, let it go." Xiao Chen said angrily.

"Hehe, how do adults know that the little one has a fart to release? Haha, my lord is really clever......" When he said this, Yun Lang squeezed out a loud fart, which caused the people around him to avoid it.

"You damn thing......" Xiao Chen cried and laughed to get the upper hand, avoiding the influence of fart.

"Lord Commander, what the Emperor said is good, even if we die, you can't die, otherwise, the whole army of our cavalry battalion will not have the face to see His Majesty the Emperor......"

After laughing for a while, Yun Lang suddenly said with a straight face.

"Fuck off, I don't like to hear you fart here." Xiao Chen scolded and kicked Yun Lang, but the latter took a hard kick and did not back down.

"I won't leave you alone to run for your life, and if you want to go, you have to go together." Xiao Chen said proudly and sincerely, but he was thinking in the dark in his heart, if he really wants to escape, he must not tell you, let you know, can he still sneak away quietly?

Yunlang also sincerely persuaded for a while, and seeing that Xiao Chen refused to let go of his mouth if he didn't eat oil and salt, although he was a little disappointed, he was more moved.

In Yunlang's mind, Xiao Chen is young and sunny, and he has the relationship of the prince, which can be described as a great future, but he can accompany the soldiers of the Xiaocai Battalion to share weal and woe, and he will not hesitate to fight to the death, what other ideas can he have?

In less than an hour, before the fortifications were finished, the communications corps ran over in embarrassment to report that the enemy had passed Qitu City and was expected to arrive in half an hour.

The reason why the enemy came so quickly was that they were mechanized troops, armored vehicles, long-range vehicles, hovercraft and all kinds of flying vehicles, and not a single person of the 20,000 people was on foot.

The enemy is in a standard marching formation with the advanced army and the air force behind, so the scouts can only see the lights of the enemy's warships in the far sky when they see the enemy army crossing Qitu City, and it is not known what type of warships there are for the time being.

"There's still half an hour to prepare." Xiao Chen smiled calmly: "Let's go, let's go down and have a look." ”

"Your Excellency, the Great War is coming, do you have anything to say to the soldiers? Do you want me to gather the soldiers together to boost the morale? Yunlang bent down and followed Xiao Chen like a dog's leg, and asked with a smile.

"Don't toss the brothers, there is not much time, hurry up and let the brothers rest and rest, eat and drink a little something, and get ready to fight." Xiao Chen hurriedly waved his hand.

"The adults have compassion for their subordinates, and I'm going to deliver the order." Yunlang said busily.

"Slow ......down" Xiao Chen pointed to the places where the construction was still on the left and right sides, and said: "Complete the fortifications in front of the main road, the air-raid shelters on the left and right sides, give up temporarily if you don't have time to do it, you must let the brothers rest well, this is a big deal, you can't be sloppy." ”

"Yes, my lord, I also think that the enemy's main attack direction should be the main road, so I will let people hurry up and put the finishing touches on it, and seize the time to rest." Yunlang said busily.

Xiao Chen walked for a while in front of the three fortifications, and returned to the mountain under Yun Xiao's reminder, and when he arrived at the mountainside, Yun Lang ran over again and said, "My lord, it's all arranged." ”

"Well, you've worked hard, Yunlang, you also have to pay attention to rest, don't go up to me if you have nothing to do, save some energy." Xiao Chen said earnestly.

"It's okay, my lord, we are the life of hardship, besides, you are a legend, with you, you can be with the immortal energy, just a little bit, small enough to be promoted and rich......"

Yun Lang smiled obscenely, but Xiao Chen couldn't laugh, he didn't know what Yun Lang meant, this seemingly careless deputy commander, was actually unsure in his heart, hoping to see a glimmer of hope from Xiao Chen.

"The enemy's first wave of attack will not be too fierce, after all, it is a tentative attack, which can allow the main cat to rest in the bomb shelter, and wait for the enemy to come up and then come out to meet the enemy, in addition, we have a small number, but we must also leave two or three hundred people as a reserve, so that it is convenient to support everywhere."

"Yes, my lord, I've already arranged this." Yun Lang said respectfully.

"In addition, don't cut off contact with the intelligence officers lurking in Qitu City, let them always pay attention to the movements of the enemy's air force, and be sure to figure out the number of enemy warships, this is very important."

"Yes, my lord, we have arranged two groups of people in Qitu City, and it should be no problem to investigate the enemy's warship formation." Yun Lang also stood beside Xiao Chen, raising his eyes in the direction of Qitu City.

"The enemy is almost halfway there, right? Let the brethren put out the lights. Xiao Chen looked into the distance extremely calmly, suddenly patted Yun Lang's shoulder, and said with a smile: "After this big battle, I invite you to eat meat and drink wine, the kind that is not afraid of spending money." ”

"Haha, then say okay, my lord, I'm greedy for what you said, no, no, my lord, can you give two more boxes of your kind of meat?"

"The opening is two boxes, you should be a cabbage for instant meat?" Xiao Chen scolded with a smile, but he didn't slow out four boxes of instant meat in his hand, and said, "Thousands of brothers, I don't have that much, you can divide it, everyone can taste it." ”

"Yes, my lord, if only there was wine." Yun Lang smiled inch by inch.

", I'm only fifteen years old, and I'm not an adult yet, what kind of wine do you drink?" Xiao Chen scolded with a smile.

"It's a pity, my lord, I always feel a little indebted when I don't drink when I am a soldier." Yun Lang smacked his mouth, and when Xiao Chen was about to start kicking him again, he hurriedly ran away with a box of instant meat.

Yunlang's personal guards hurriedly picked up the remaining three boxes and ran along.

After a while, the lights at the foot of the mountainside were extinguished, but at the same time, irrepressible cheers erupted, and Yun Lang sent all the instant meat to the battalions and companies.

The chef knife workers of each company neatly cut the instant meat into boxy pieces and stacked them in an iron basin, so that everyone could divide into two pieces.

The soldiers, who had never eaten such a high-class delicacy, couldn't help but cheer excitedly, because after eating the instant meat made from the meat of spirit beasts, a warm heat spread all over the limbs, and the fatigue of half a day's work quietly disappeared.

One hundred and twenty bags of instant meat, nearly three thousand people ate it, but they ate the feeling of the New Year, Xiao Chen listened to the cheers below, and his heart was quite unpleasant.

This is the hateful feudal society with clear classes, many summoners disdain to eat, but in the life of ordinary soldiers, it is a blessing like a blessing from heaven, and many people sigh that after eating this kind of fairy meat, there is no regret about dying in battle.

Just two mouthfuls of spirit beast meat cheered with satisfaction, but this simple thought made Xiao Chen feel a sense of guilt in his heart.

A sense of guilt that makes people sacrifice their lives and work hard, but can't make people full, Xiao Chen secretly gritted his teeth, ready to take out all the inventory and let everyone have a good meal, but at this moment, he suddenly heard Yun Xiao shouting: "The enemy is coming." ”

Xiao Chen hurriedly cleaned up his mood, moved the night vision goggles he wore on his head to his eyes, and saw a dense row of convoys in the distance, which was full of people.

"Order everyone to hide, we'll catch them off guard." Xiao Chen calmly commanded.

The communication soldiers who were guarding the side ran down the mountain to give orders, and the rest of the people followed Xiao Chen into an air-raid shelter at the top of the mountain, which was a command post specially prepared for Xiao Chen by Yunlang.
