Chapter Eighty-Seven: Where the Enemy Comes From
When Han Xiaoxi opened his eyes, it was dark all around, and the air flowed very slowly, quiet and dreary in the not very spacious tent.
In a trance, the groans of the soldiers appeared in all directions outside the tent.
The moment Han Xiaoxi walked out of the tent, a faint smell of blood came to his nose, and the hot wind swirled in the valley, evaporating the blood that had been spilled on the rocks and in the soil.
The camp has long since been cleared.
Last night's torrential rain seemed to wash everything away and dilute everything, but the heavy feeling that stayed in Han Xiaoxi's heart could never be washed away.
Finally, I experienced a cruel and bloody war, and overnight, this place became a place for many people to bury their bones!
Outside the tent door, I don't know when there were two more people.
"You are Han Xiaoxi, the general asked you to come over." Both of them clenched their fists and were respectful.
Han Xiaoxi thought for a while and said, "Is it General Feng?" ”
"Exactly."
"Please!"
Han Xiaoxi pursed his pale lips slightly, and followed the two to Feng Yu's camp.
There seemed to be a lingering afterglow of dizziness in his brain, and he was scorched like fire, and there was a blackness in front of his eyes, and Han Xiaoxi bit the tip of his tongue to be sober.
"This is the general's tent, please wait, the young general will go in first and report it."
The two of them arched their hands and went into the tent.
After a while, the two came out and said, "The general is invited." ”
The attitude of the two was too polite, which made Han Xiaoxi a little embarrassed.
"I'm tired of the two big brothers." Han Xiaoxi returned the salute.
In the tent, Feng Yu was sitting cross-legged behind the couch, looking at the visitor with fixed eyes.
Han Xiaoxi's face was pale, and there was no blood on his lips.
"The villain Han Xiaoxi has seen the general.
"You were the one who told you last night." This sentence was in an affirmative tone, and it seemed that Feng Yu recognized him at a glance.
"It's the villain."
"Sit down."
Han Xiaoxi looked up and saw Feng Yu pointing to a seat under his left hand position, his eyes overflowing with smiles.
Han Xiaoxi is a little embarrassed, this location is too close.
"How dare the villain, I'm afraid of soiling the general's place." Since I fainted last night, I haven't taken a bath, and I not only smell of blood on my body, but also smell of sweat, which is really difficult to approach.
Feng Yu said with a smile: "If you stand in my tent, aren't you afraid of getting dirty?" ”
Han Xiaoxi couldn't answer, he stayed in place, he didn't leave, and he didn't stay.
Feng Yu saw that the young man was at a loss when he was asked, so he laughed out loud, got up from the couch, and walked in front of him, only to realize that the young man with an ordinary face in front of him was worthy of his chest, although he was wearing armor, his body was still much thinner than most soldiers.
"Last night, I saw that you have a very disciplined hand, you must have practiced kung fu?"
Han Xiaoxi still lowered his head: "Yes." ”
"Oh, no wonder." Feng Yu nodded lightly and asked again, "How old are you this year?" ”
"Back to the general, the villain is sixteen this year." It's the truth.
In general, men over the age of 15 must participate in conscription, except for those who are physically disabled or ill.
Feng Yu didn't have a surprised look, according to Han Xiaoxi's figure and appearance, sixteen years old was already considered old.
"Although you are not very old, your ability is no less than that of others, so how about I appoint you as a centurion today?"
Han Xiaoxi was so excited that he couldn't speak, but asked blankly, "Really?" ”
Seeing that this young man was very honest, Feng Yu couldn't help but gently patted the top of his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is not a dream." ”
Han Xiaoxi grinned, and his moist eyes bent into crescent moons.
Suddenly, a guard walked in from outside the tent and said to Feng Yu: "General, the generals have arrived." ”
"Come in, please!"
Feng Yu had already invited the generals, presumably to discuss a major matter, so it was time for him to leave.
"The Great General......
Feng Yu patted the top of his head again: "You stay." ”
Later, the generals rushed forward.
Han Xiaoxi hid in the corner awkwardly.
There are all generals standing here, and his little centurion is really out of place.
Feng Yu still sat back on the couch, and across the couch, he said gently: "Everyone, please sit down." ”
So the ten generals sat down one after another, and Han Xiaoxi was the only one standing at the end.
Feng Yu shouted outward: "Come on, add a seat." ”
Suddenly, everyone looked at Han Xiaoxi, who was the only one standing.
But no one talked about anything, because since he was a person that Feng Yu valued, there must be a reason, but what kind of ability did this thin young man have to be favored by General Zhenguo? Everyone was puzzled for a while.
Soon, the young general guarding outside moved a chair, Han Xiaoxi sat down very frightened, and looked at Feng Yu very uneasily, Feng Yu saw that he also sat down, so he said: "Everyone, you also saw it just now, this little boy is named Han Xiaoxi, don't look at him thin and small, he is still immature, but he is extraordinary, and the first person to find the enemy attack last night was this seemingly inconspicuous young man!" ”
As soon as these words came out, all the generals also looked at Han Xiaoxi in surprise and appreciation, and of course, some people were skeptical.
How could such a teenager find out that even the sentries didn't find out in the first place!
"Okay, I'm coming to you today, not just for this little boy, there is another more important matter that we all need to discuss together."
And all the people sat upright, listening intently.
"Everyone should also know that the only checkpoint between the Northern Kingdom and our Eastern Evolution Country has been garrisoned here by General Huang Lao all the year round, so it is impossible for the enemy army to pass through that checkpoint or even invade our land to attack us, unless ......"
Unless something happened to General Huang, maybe it ......
"Unless General Huang has been captured by the enemy."
As soon as these words came out, it was like a big stone falling into the river, stirring up a circle of ripples.
General Huang has been guarding the northern frontier all these years, and he has never had an accident!
Feng Yu: "I have already sent someone to the front line last night to find out if something happened to General Huang, if nothing else, I should be on the way back at this time." ”
Someone sighed: "That's good, I hope nothing happened to General Huang!" ”
Feng Yu suddenly looked at Han Xiaoxi: "Han Xiaoxi, you were the first to spot the enemy last night, can you tell me which direction they came from?" ”
The camp is located in the southeast, surrounded by mountains, Han Xiaoxi climbed the mountain forest behind the camp last night to find the enemy, at that time, the wind was strong, the wind was blowing from the northwest, and Han Xiaoxi was facing the northwest.
So......
Han Xiaoxi got up and said, "General Hui, the enemy army came from the northwest last night. ”
Feng Yu listened, pondered for a while, and took out a drawing.
To the northwest, there seem to be mountains all over the place, and there are no gaps for people to pass through.
