Chapter 1413: The Way Home
Last night, when he climbed to the top of the mountain, it was snowy, and Morgan didn't fully see the situation down the mountain, but this morning's visibility was a little better, and everyone in the sniper team couldn't help but be slightly surprised when they looked at it again. The Houjin camp at the foot of the mountain is not limited to the tents I saw last night, but spreads out at the foot of the mountain along the mountain, and there are at least seventy or eighty tents. Although the tent of the Houjin Army is not like the tent of the sniper team, which can accommodate more than a dozen people, there are at least hundreds of people stationed here at this scale. At the foot of the mountain, there are several courtyards that are obviously built by Han Chinese, and horses can be seen in the courtyards, presumably occupied by high-ranking officers in the army.
Although there were no Houjin soldiers patrolling the periphery, Morgan did not dare to be careless, and immediately ordered the formation to disperse and expand the monitoring range, so as not to have any Houjin patrols touching the mountain from other directions, and his group did not react at all.
The presence of the stronghold of the Houjin Army at this position did not surprise Morgan, and it was obviously unlikely that the Houjin patrol encountered on the way yesterday had set off from the camp in Jinzhou, thirty miles away. Judging from the direction of its travel, it is highly likely that the group set off from this stronghold and headed south.
Under the current climatic conditions and geographical conditions, both sides of the war chose the most practical garrison points and marching routes. It's just that under Morgan's careful command, the Houjin patrol did not discover the existence of this sniper team on the way, allowing them to quietly blend in near this stronghold.
Morgan's focus was on the courtyards, and he identified the officers of the occupants through his binoculars, silently estimating in his mind how sure he would be of killing the enemy at this distance. Of course, he was only thinking about it out of habit, and he didn't really intend to kill. Morgan knew very well that if they were to shoot at such a distance, the sniper team would probably not have time to evacuate the hill, and the other side would be turned around behind to block the way south. No matter what level of officer the other party is, its strategic value cannot be higher than that of his own team, and it is unwise to expose his deeds in order to kill a few people.
Although he can't deal with the enemy under the mountain, Morgan doesn't plan to leave this place immediately, and it is rare to have the opportunity to lurk under the enemy's nose, so it is good to take this opportunity to collect more information on the daily deployment of the Houjin army. It's just that if you want to bypass this place and continue to go in the direction of the Jinzhou camp in the north, the risk is too great, and once your tracks are exposed, you may be intercepted by the Houjin army in this stronghold. Morgan had discovered that there was a special horse pen in the courtyard below the mountain, and that there were about twenty horses in it, and that it would not be a good day to be chased by a cavalry on such a plain. Even if the sniper team can take out these cavalry with their firepower superiority, the speed of retreat will definitely be greatly slowed down, and it will be troublesome to be caught up by the Houjin army at that time.
Out of an abundance of caution, Morgan decided to modify his original plan on the spot, not to venture any further north, but to turn back after completing his reconnaissance here. From the high point of this hill, you can already see the narrowest miles of the Golden State Isthmus, and the terrain here is relatively simple, only minor corrections are required to the existing map.
