It was nearly midnight, Zhang Shuo, who was serving as a sentry, suddenly broke in, and when he saw that I was still sitting at the table, he was stunned for a moment, but he didn't ask why he hadn't slept yet, and the leader's affairs were not something that Xiaobing could manage.

"Commander, there's movement in the north!" Zhang Shuo reported to me calmly.

"Huh?" I stood up and walked out as I said to him, "Go, go see, and, call your dad too!"

I walked out of the tent and looked left and right, and there was nothing high here, and finally I fell in love with the big cart, which still had our supplies on it, and it was a high place to stand up.

As soon as I ran up, I saw Zhang Hanwen already standing on it. He looked back at me and said, "Here we go!"

"Here's what!"

"There's a wolf howling over there!" he pointed to the north, now it was pitch black, and I couldn't see anything, I looked back at the campfire in the camp, and said to Zhang Shuo, "Put out the fire!"

Zhang Shuo immediately carried out my order, and I continued to ask, "Who is in your group today?"

"Cui Jian!" Zhang Shuo replied. The night guard is a two-person shift, except for me and Zhang Hanwen who do not participate in the duty, everyone else has to take turns to stand guard, generally three shifts every night, constantly rotating.

"Get Cui Jian!" I ordered Zhang Shuo again.

Zhang Shuo took the order and turned around and quickly began to carry out my orders, first extinguishing the bonfire, then finding Cui Jian, and finally, extinguishing all the lights in each tent.

Our camp was instantly plunged into darkness, and the voices from the north seemed to be a little louder, but still not visible.

"Commander!" Cui Jian jumped into the car and stood beside me.

I pointed to the north and asked, "What's over there?"

Cui Jian squinted and looked at it, he couldn't see anything, he only heard some unreal sounds, from the intermittent sound, it looked like a wolf, he snorted twice hard, and then said: "Commander, we are in the limelight, listening to this voice, it looks like a wolf, the distance is still far away, and I can't distinguish it from the smell, so I need them to get closer." ”

It seems to be similar to Zhang Hanwen's judgment, because of Zhang Shuo's behavior, the other people have woken up, they got up from their respective tents, and saw me and Zhang Hanwen standing on the cart, so they naturally gathered around, and the two handymen carefully stuck their heads out of the tent to see what was going on.

Those who had just arrived whispered to Zhang Shuo, "What's the matter?"

"We may have met a wolf. Zhang Shuo took off the deceptive sword on his back, and then said to the others, "Prepare your weapons, maybe we will have a big fight in a while." ”

The voice in the north became louder and louder, but there was no sound on our side, Cui Jian listened for a while and said, "It's a wolf!" ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, in this kind of place where there is no shelter on all sides, the most afraid of encountering wolves, the wolves on the grassland are all packs, generally there are as many as thirty or forty wolves in smaller groups, and there are only ten on our side, but there is a good point, that is, there are more long-range strikers, and some of them can be killed and injured when the wolves are not close.

When I heard Cui Jian say that the number of wolves is not much, that is to say, with the force value of our people, we can still deal with it. But Zhang Hanwen's next sentence made everyone's heart that he had just let go of raise it again.

"This is not a pack of wolves, it's a werewolf!" Zhang Hanwen's back straightened, his hand pressed on the handle of the knife at his waist, and he ordered in a low voice: "All of them, immediately armed, be on guard!"

Although our group was a full cavalry, and when we could not shake off the enemy, the two miscellaneous servants could abandon the cart and retreat with us on horseback, but now, on a night like this, in a completely unfamiliar steppe, it was obviously impossible for us to run past the natives here.

The best strategy now is to form a formation on the spot, drag out the battle until tomorrow morning, and once it is dawn, we will find a way to break through, and this is the strategy after Zhang Hanwen and I discussed.

This big car has become my handsome platform, and the real commander is Zhang Hanwen, the highest ranking in our group, although I am the regiment commander, but in the storm, I have always been a commandee, and at that time I was just a rigid skeleton, so now let me command the battle, it is the same as a completely layman to be a mercenary, then it is better to give up the command position to Zhang Hanwen, an experienced old mercenary.

"Cui Jian, you are now the commander of the melee combat, Xiong Wen and Zhang Shuo are under your command! You are our first line of defense!" Cui Jian did not shirk, and directly gave a chest salute, and immediately heard Cui Jian's loud command.

"The melee group is ten steps forward, Zhang Shuo and I are responsible for blocking the enemy, Xiong Wen, you are one step behind us, you are responsible for protecting the long-range strike group!" Xiong Wen wanted to refute two sentences, but seeing that Zhang Shuo didn't say anything, he immediately took place ten steps away from the cart, and Cui Jian next to him, in the night, his moon wheel axe was not reflected at all, but it made people faintly chill, he had to hold back the doubt in his stomach, and stood two steps behind Cui Jian and Zhang Shuo, and the lower tip of a small tower shield more than half a person high was smashed into the ground by him.

"Regiment Commander, you command the long-range strike group! I will be the commander-in-chief of the team and protect you!" Zhang Hanwen continued his arrangement.

"Long-range strike group, take position in front of the cart!" Shen Yi, Huang Zhong, and Han Tao lined up in front of the cart, and after they were in position, I continued: "When Han Tao fights for a while, pay attention to the enemy commander and kill him for me as soon as possible!"

Han Tao didn't turn around, but he immediately buckled his chest and responded loudly: "Yes, understand the head of the regiment!"

"Commander, what about the two of us?" the two Hou brothers found that there was no arrangement for the two of them, so they leaned over to the side of the cart and gently pulled the corner of my pants and asked.

Zhang Hanwen looked down at them and continued to order: "Candidate, candidate." ”

The two of them perked up, immediately stood upright, and responded loudly: "Here!"

"You two are on standby! After the battle begins, immediately touch the back of the enemy from both sides, and interfere with the enemy with cold arrows, whether we can retreat today depends on the two of you!" Zhang Hanwen stared at the two of them with both eyes, staring at the two of them a little hairy, but when he heard the task assigned to them, he was really excited, and the two of them clasped their chests at the same time and replied: "Yes!

Our side has assigned the task and waited quietly, and the wolf howl from the north became clearer and clearer, Zhang Hanwen's brows furrowed, and he said to me: "It seems that these werewolves are not coming for us, I heard a few dog barks in the wolf howl, it seems that the werewolves are driving away the canines, and the direction they are driving is our side." ”
