Chapter 21: Zhao Lao
"Now is the time to employ people, you'd better have a good performance to make the merit, has the city lord Gao said anything else!"
"It's Commander Mu, Lord Gao said that you have a guide here who is familiar with the terrain of this mountain? If not, I will stay and lead the way, and if I do, I will go back to restore my life, and there is a small terrain map in the letter, and there are still a few falcons here. ”
"There are acquaintances who are familiar with this place to lead the way, and the terrain map also has a belt, but since the high city lord brought it over, then use your side to be more accurate, there are three more falcons, you go back to help the high city lord, let's have a meal first, come and lick the side dishes and chopsticks!"
The falcons are all artificially bred to know the way home, the falcons in Pegasus City were sent by the people of Pingshan City, the falcons in Pingshan City were sent by Pegasus City, and as soon as Tianma City was released, the falcons will fly back to their hometown in Pingshan City, of course, Pegasus City not only has the falcons of Pingshan City but also the falcons of Wangcheng and so on. Like the support army is halfway through, the disappearance of Pingshan Castle to be delivered can only be delivered manually, and the letter falcon that released Pingshan Castle here can still convey the news to Pingshan Castle.
"Commander Shemu. "I'd better shut up and eat, and wait until another cowhide will be recognized.
"Go back and tell Lord Gao that we will do what the letter says. After eating, Mu Qing read the letter carefully.
"Yes, then I'll go back now. After speaking, the thin young man approached Zhao Ming's side and whispered, "You come out with me." ”
"You're Zhao Ming!" said the thin young man who came to the outside of the tent.
"You know my name, you know my grandfather? is it really my grandfather! Is he a disfigured old man! I'm going to go with you to him. Zhao Ming said excitedly.
"Elder Zhao said, you can go to him after you win the battle with Commander Mu first. ”
"Why?"
"He knows that you are overly afraid of life and death, and he wants you to overcome this difficulty, and don't die easily!"
"Did he really say that? I can fight with the army when I go to him!"
"I don't know about this! Are you really afraid of death?"
"Generally, who is not afraid of death?" Zhao Ming looked upright
"Don't act, anyway, I brought Zhao Lao's words, I'm leaving. Zhao Lao said so, this person must be a person who is very afraid of death, and the thin young man looked at Zhao Ming with contempt.
"I'll act, I think someone can act better than me! I see that you recognize Commander Mu all of a sudden, why do you want to talk nonsense to elevate your nickname?" Zhao Ming was angry, and then said flatly.
"Don't talk nonsense! I've deduced it accurately!" the thin young man pretended to be calm
"Oh, then you also deduced that I was Zhao Ming based on the surrounding environment!"
"This, this is Zhao Laoyou describing your appearance to me!"
"That's right, I see that Commander Mu's appearance has also been clearly described to you, don't pretend, I can recognize Commander Mu's appearance at a glance! Don't think that others are stupid. ”
"I didn't!"
"Then why do you want to?"
"Vanity, vanity, don't talk about it. The thin young man laughed dryly.
"Then I'll go back with you!"
"This can't be done, this Zhao Ming told me very seriously that he can't let you go back with you! By the way, Zhao Lao also said that if you go back alive, he will tell you about your parents!"
"What did my grandfather say?" Zhao Ming was stunned in place, vaguely remembering that when he was a child, he asked his grandfather about his parents, but his grandfather was always silent, and he never got an answer when he asked, and then he gradually stopped asking about his parents.
"I'm leaving, I want to go back alive!" Looking at Zhao Ming, who was stunned, the thin young man felt a feeling in his heart.
"Bring me a message, tell my grandfather to take care of himself, I will go to see him alive, and what is your name as a friend?" Zhao Ming was very grateful to this handsome young man for bringing his grandfather's words here.
"Okay, just call me Ah Ren!" Ah Ren said in a chic manner, leaving without looking back.
。。。。。。
"Li Yong, early tomorrow morning, you and Mu Long will take half of the men and horses to cover here, and I will bring the other half here, we are only about five kilometers apart, and I will inform you when the time comes." In the camp tent on the third night, Mu Qing instructed his subordinates that they had passed through a heavily guarded pass on the side of Pingshan City and came to a place sixty or seventy miles away from the city.
In addition to Mu Qing, Mu Long and Zhao Ming, there are five subordinates of Mu Qing in the camp tent, and they are all soldiers of Ailan in reputation, but everyone knows that this is a private army belonging to the Mu family, and the appointment of what positions of the subordinates is also arranged by the city lord, and Yu Lu is also given by the city lord not by the lord of the country, most countries are territorial system, their own territories are managed by themselves, and each territory has a certain military limit, and the appointment of the lord of the city is only appointed with people or relatives who trust him very much.
"Is this trying to ambush the Kade army on the periphery?" asked Li Yong. Li Yong is Mu Qing's right-hand man, and he is younger than Mu Qing.
"Yes. It wasn't until he brought the army to its destination that Mu Qing explained the situation to everyone.
"It's too risky to fight like this, the number of Kade troops on the other side is far superior to ours, and we can only have an advantage if we fight in the city!" Li Yong continued to ask puzzled.
"This is too passive, and the city is the last line of defense, if it is breached, it will be lost, so Gao Feng's plan is to push the battle line to the surrounding mountains, I think this is right, we are no different, anyway, we came to prepare for a sneak attack on the side, and there is no difference between coming here to fight a sneak attack and a sneak attack in the enemy's siege. Originally, Mu Qing was also going to bring the army to the side of the city, and according to Gao Feng's letter, he brought the army here, and Gao Feng had already brought the army near the other side.
Mu Qing also participated in the war more than ten years ago, but at that time he only followed Mu Rong, and later Mu Rong was commanding the battle, he was Mu Rong's guard, and he also had a lot of experience in how to command the war, and there were very few fights on the front line of the war, Mu Qing's biggest growth was after Mu Rong became the city lord, Mu Qing's advanced skills and Mu Qing's teaching of war tactics, Mu Qing's subordinates' understanding of war was not as good as Mu Qing's, and there were two older subordinates who had experienced war.
"Then I don't know how the high city lord is going to spend this lofty mountain?" another older subordinate asked aloud
"Waiting for the news, we divided into two teams to cover up first, all the rangers were dispatched, and the reconnaissance range on the opposite side was also limited, if he was discovered by the enemy's rangers, he must not be allowed to leave alive. "On the eve of leaving, my father repeatedly instructed me to cooperate with Gao Feng, to be decisive in attacking, and to be decisive in collecting troops.
"Commander Mu leads the other half of the men, I want to bring it myself. At this time, Mu Long said out loud that only when he took it alone did he know how far he had come, and what he could and couldn't do.
"No, this is a critical situation, and we can't make any mistakes. Mu Qing said that he wanted his son to exercise, although he often practiced this kid's command well in the city, but now it is too critical, and it is half of the people, now is not the time to mess around.
"I think it's feasible, although Mu Long is a little younger, but the army believes in him no less than me. Li Yong spoke up
"No, it's better for Li Yong, I'll rest assured that you're with him. ”
"Brother Mu, you are concerned about it, you must know that I have never fought any battles like Mu Long, and I will act according to your orders at that time, as for commanding the battle, Mu Long can fight with you in the drill. Li Yong changed his title to Commander Mu Qing.
"Thank you, Uncle Li!" Mu Long said loudly
"What do you mean?" This son is good at everything, but he is a little too adventurous. Mu Qing decided that if the two of them had an opinion, they couldn't let Mu Long lead the team alone.
"No problem, only by letting Mu Long stand alone can he think about more problems! A subordinate who was older than Mu Qing said, and several other people also nodded.
"Alright then, but we'll have to talk before we go, you go and divide the army into two groups now. "I'll test you first.
"Yes, Commander Mu!" Mu Long replied loudly, turning and walking out of the tent.
。。。。。。
More than ten kilometers away from the Yinhuan Mountain opposite the position of Mu Qing's army, there is a recess on the other side of the mountain halfway up the mountain, and there is no recess here from the peak or under the mountain, let alone more than 10,000 people in ambush in the recess.
"Old Zhao, are you saying that the reconnaissance range of the Kade Army is only five kilometers?" There were two people sitting in a tent here, and Gao Feng, who was handsome in appearance, asked an old man sitting next to him, except for the skin around his mouth, nose, and eyes, the rest of his face was wrinkled, and he looked like he had been burned by the fire.
"Yes, that's what I learned from the explorer who came back from the assassination of the Kadejun rangers. The old man said with a smile, but unfortunately, the tense and ugly skin did not express the smile that the old man wanted.
"That's great, the Ka German army came from the Yinhuan Mountain Road, the only way, and our army and Brother Mu who were ambushed on both sides of them would be even more difficult to be detected. Gao Feng said excitedly
Ten days ago, Gao Feng sent a city-wide notice according to his wife's instructions to recruit Zhao Lao, after learning about Zhao Ming and the army, he didn't expect Zhao Lao to take the initiative to help Gao Feng fight, Gao Feng left Zhao Lao with the mentality of trying, Zhao Lao's next action even Gao Feng, who didn't know anything about war, also felt that Zhao Lao was different, and later his father-in-law Mu Rong wrote to say that he listened to Zhao Lao more, so that Gao Feng believed in Zhao Lao even more, for Gao Feng who didn't understand war, Zhao Lao seemed to be his lifeline.
"The reduction of the enemy's range is also due to the generosity of the high city lord. Zhao Lao said
"Don't hide it from Zhao Lao, I didn't understand your thoughts at first, at first I thought it would be better to kill some Kade troops and frustrate the enemy's spirit!"
