Chapter 267: Invincible in the Battle of the Beacon Mountains (1)
The four brothers of Lingyi explained the situation one by one, and the faces of the thousands of people were shocked, but they didn't expect that the four people who seemed to be exemplary pacesetters were actually ruffians in their bones.
However, they admired Ling Yi's recklessness even more, although they violated military regulations, but the four brothers in training and fighting were never ambiguous, they just released their true selves, which is also the envy of these veterans.
The chat continued, and Ling Yi asked Shan Qianqun, "Captain Shan, there is no situation in the past few days, right?"
"Don't call me Captain, in private we all call names, I'm a few years older than you, just call me Lao Shan, otherwise it will sound awkward!" Shan Qianqun reminded the four of them.
"Okay, in the future, we will call you Brother Shan in private!" Ling Yi is not entangled, everyone is acquaintances, there is no need to move the officialdom to private friendships!
"That's right!" Shan Qianqun said happily: "There has been no abnormal situation in the past few days, and there is no finding in the daily patrol, but there is intelligence that the cavalry of the Northern Wilderness will come to sneak attack next, so I have been stationed on the city defense wall for the past few days!"
"And the sneak attack? When will there be another fight!" Ah Hai asked excitedly.
Shan Qianqun shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific time yet, I can only wait to see the situation, now that you are here, I am also a lot easier!"
"If there is anything, you just have to give orders and ensure that the task is completed!" Ling Yi patted his chest and assured that after becoming a soldier, military orders are life, and Ling Yi has always demanded himself with the strictest attitude.
Ling Yi asked again: "Why do the Northern Wilderness cavalry attack Lao Guipo so frequently, every year?"
Shan Qianqun put down his chopsticks and replied: "No, although there was a sneak attack last year, it was just a sneak attack by the light cavalry of the tribe, and it was not so serious, you also saw it last time, even the main cavalry like the tiger and wolf cavalry was dispatched?
"Is this the case in other places?" Ling Yi then asked Shan Qianqun.
Shan Qianqun was also unsure of the situation, but just told the news he had inquired about and his own speculation: "It's the same in other places, a few days ago I went to Gupanshan to report on my work, and the news I got from other border points is the same situation, this year, the military department of Bingzhou has increased border control, and it is difficult for all places to break through into the scope of Bingzhou, I think it is the Northern Wilderness that has increased its troops to attack the border defense in order to go south to grab grain!"
"Maybe that's the reason, when the time comes, we'll fight side by side!" Ling Yi replied.
"Don't worry, as long as there is a military situation, I will inform you as soon as possible! Come on, come on, continue to eat!" Shan Qianqun did not continue to discuss the military situation, but beckoned Ling Yi and a few people to eat vegetables.
After the banquet was dispersed, Shan Qianqun went up to the city defense wall, and Ling Yi and a few people returned to the camp tent, at this time, the ruffian who was snoring during the day became active, some people made a fire to cook, and some people farts and chatted!
Seeing the four of Lingyi coming back, they all focused their eyes on them, and then they didn't pay attention to the four of Lingyi, and chatted and cooked by themselves!
Ling Yi didn't step forward to look for the picture, ignored these ruffians, and returned to his tent with the three brothers!
In the tent, the four of them did not communicate much, but each meditated cross-legged and began to cultivate.
Ling Yi sat on the bed and directly entered a meditative state, this was the first time he had meditated and cultivated since he joined the army!
In the middle of the night, the ruffian returned to life, everyone was boxing, drinking, gambling and chatting, and there was no trace of military discipline at all!
On the first night of entering the ruffian, the two groups of people spent the rest and the trouble peacefully, and after Lingyi and their cultivation ended, the entire ruffian fell into silence again.
Early this morning, the four of Ling Yi set off to patrol with the patrol team, and it was not until the evening that they patrolled the east and west lines.
At night, the four of them accompanied Shan Qianqun to garrison the city defense wall, and the sky began to slowly sprinkle snowflakes again, the clouds and mist were exceptionally thick, and they couldn't see far at all, and a few sentries took binoculars to carefully observe the surrounding situation!
The more midnight, the heavier the snow falls, and the weather is getting colder and colder, fortunately there is no wind tonight, otherwise the snowflakes will be blown everywhere, and a few people are hiding in the low house on the city defense wall, just now they can hide from the heavy snow!
"Minister, come and see!" was the exclamation of a sentry observing the Western Front, calling for Shan Qianqun at the first time.
Shan Qianqun rushed out of the low room and hurriedly asked, "What's the matter?"
As he spoke, he snatched the binoculars and looked in the direction of the sentry's finger.
The sentry replied from the side: "Minister, the clouds and fog on the western front were too thick just now to see the situation clearly, and now there is a fire on the peak between us and Keshan!"
The four of Ling Yi were standing on the edge waiting for orders, and the officers and soldiers stationed on the city defense wall were also waiting for orders!
Shan Qianqun looked back and forth for more than ten breaths, did not put down the binoculars, and opened his mouth to give an order: "The herald blows the rallying call! Where is the patrol now?"
One herald blew the trumpet, and the other returned to Shan Qianqun's words: "Tonight's patrol is the first to go to the eastern front, maybe the heavy snow is not conducive to the march, and it has not come back yet, and the western front has not patrolled yet!"
At this time, Shan Qianqun put down his glasses and analyzed: "It seems that the mountain is on fire, but in this season, in this kind of weather, how can it catch fire, it seems that someone did it deliberately." If the beacon fire is not ignited, it is possible that there has not been an enemy attack yet, or that the outpost has been captured. The Western Front is in critical condition right now, and someone must go and investigate!"
"Let's go!" Ling Yi stepped forward directly to receive the order!
"It's okay, you have the fastest speed here, find out the situation and report it in time as soon as possible, you go first, I will send the ruffian regiment to support you in the back, if the enemy is strong and avoid its edge, don't be greedy for merit!" Shan Qianqun directly ordered.
As soon as the four of Ling Yi were about to set off, Shan Qianqun spoke again: "This should be a strategy to divert the tiger from the mountain, I won't send too many troops to support you, when the time comes, the eastern front and here may be the focus of tonight, you must be careful at that time!"
"Don't worry, I promise to complete the task!" Ling Yi promised, took out a few pieces of black cloth wrapped in a stone from the ring, threw it to Shan Qianqun, and said, "This may be useful to you!"
After saying that, the four of Ling Yi ran towards the Western Front, not daring to delay, the situation was too critical!
After Ling Yi left, Shan Qianqun looked at the black cloth package in his hand, slowly opened it, and for a while, the entire city defense wall was illuminated by the three stones in his hand as if it were day, which was much brighter than his torches.
It's snowing heavily tonight, and there is no moonlight yet, if there is really a war, their support troops rush to the two borders, and they will definitely have to touch the dark, which will slow down the speed of support, and now there is a stone, which makes their support speed increase a lot!
Shan Qianqun ordered to one of the lieutenants stationed with him: "Captain Shao, you lead the three hundred soldiers stationed today to set off to support the Eastern Front now, just keep a hundred soldiers here for the time being, and the five hundred people on duty in the barracks will come in a while, you pay attention to transmitting information, as long as you find out about the situation, light the beacon fire in time!"
"Command!" Captain Shao began to gather his forces, took a piece of stone, and rushed towards the eastern front.
At this time, hearing that the first team to arrive at the assembly number was the group of ruffians who were scattered, Zhang Cheng stepped forward and asked, "Where are we going?"
Zhang Cheng didn't ask about the situation at all, since Shan Qianqun sounded the rallying call, then there must be an enemy, and what he had to do was to kill!
"You Wuduwei have already gone to the western front to find out the situation, you just go to support them!" Shan Qianqun gave the order, and gave Zhang Cheng a piece of stone, and the last piece he wanted to stay on the city wall to use.
As soon as Zhang Cheng heard that Ling Yi and the others had already set off, he didn't dare to stay, he didn't organize the team, and set off with this stone that he had never seen before, which could illuminate the night!
The troops on duty have also gathered at the city defense wall, the garrison is stationed, and the standby is on standby!
Looking at the snowflakes that were falling bigger and bigger, Shan Qianqun prayed in his heart, hoping that everything was his own fuss, otherwise tonight was destined to be a vicious battle!
For the Western Front, it was not the first time that Ling Yi and the others had patrolled in the dark, but this time they were in military affairs, and they could only advance at the fastest speed, if they didn't have a stone in their hands, they wouldn't dare to run at full speed on the snow-covered mountain road!
Arrived at the first dark sentinel point, everything was normal, and after a few words, the four of them continued to run towards the west!
There was no abnormality in the second, third, and fourth dark sentinel points, in order not to attract the attention of the enemy army, after the third dark outpost, Ling Yi put away the obshal!
The four of them gathered at the fourth dark sentry point, called the two dark sentry to their side, and asked, "Do you know what happened to the wildfire in the direction of Keshan?"
One of the soldiers replied, "We also find it strange that there are no wildfires in this season, and this location is a bit special!"
"How is the special law?" Ling Yi hurriedly asked.
The soldier replied: "The location of the fire, ordinary people can't go up from here, and they can't go up from Keshan, the only thing that can go up is to climb slowly from the Northern Wilderness, but it is also very difficult!"
Ling Yi hurriedly asked: "You mean to say that this fire was deliberately put by the Northern Wilderness, why did you put it?"
"I don't know, but now that our reinforcements have arrived, I'm sure we've sent out all the reinforcements from Laikeshan!" replied the sentry.
"Support troops, second brother, can you go up and take a look at the situation?" Ling Yi asked Hao Jun.
"No problem, just wait!" Hao Jun said, and rushed in the direction of the mountain fire!
"I hope it's not what I think!" Ling Yi looked at the mountain fire and whispered.
"What did you say?" Sun Ze asked Ling Yi.
Ling Yi's expression was solemn, and he replied, "I estimate that tonight is not only dangerous on our side, but also on Keshan's side!"
"What do you say?" Ah Hai also asked strangely.
Ling Yi replied: "Now the two border points have sent reinforcements to the side of the mountain fire, if there is really an enemy attack on this side, then the two places will fully support this side, and then the other positions will become weak, just like last time, the danger is still the eastern front." ”
Ah Hai said again: "Haven't they used this trick once, why do they still use it?"
Ling Yi shook his head and said, "Last time, they could have succeeded, but there were these variables of ours, as long as the tiger and wolf couldn't stop the tiger and wolf riding, then the old turtle slope would definitely be lost." Last time, it was 500 tigers and wolves, but what if this time it was 1,000 or 2,000? Even if Big Brother Shan lit a beacon fire and asked for help from Gupan Mountain, would they be able to hold out until the reinforcements arrived? Not to mention that the same situation happened in Keshan, which further dispersed the support forces of Gupan Mountain!"
"Are you saying that there will be a large range of enemy attacks this time, more than last time?" Ah Hai now understands what Ling Yi is worried about, if it is really like what Ling Yi said, then tonight is destined to be blood-stained with snow and flames!
