Chapter Ninety-Eight: A Snowy Night

Everything is normal in the camp here, the morale of the big guys is not bad, I naturally don't need to continue here, not long after we return to the city, there is also news from the training ground under construction in the city, this news is not good news for Feiteng.

At the same time, Yan Shifan was furious, the cronies he sent out to question the mayor were gone, he didn't get any information from the outside world now, he only knew that after his people rushed into that block with a hundred or so thugs, it didn't take half an hour for the city's garrison to appear in that block.

Except for one of the three squads who slipped back with the worst martial arts, all of them were arrested and put into the barracks where the city garrison headquarters was located, and none of those gangsters ran away, and now they are all waiting for interrogation in the city prison.

And his three escort teams also have no news, he only knows that the baggage team has left in the wind and snow, watching the wind and snow outside the window getting bigger and bigger, and the inexplicable worry in his heart is getting stronger and stronger, is the mayor going to part ways with him? Doesn't he know how he came to power? If he can help him up, he can pull him down!

Yan Shifan pushed the window open violently, and a cold wind rushed in, but he didn't feel the cold, he looked up at the leaden black cloud with his hands on his shoulders. The members who passed downstairs were shocked by the knowledge that he pushed the window, and they all looked up at him, the regiment leader, no one knew what he was thinking, but he was not as nervous as those who stayed at home, at least not on the surface.

The three squads that flew out of the mission have been on the road for three days, today is the third day, the first day is fine, the snow is not heavy, the temperature is also good, except for a little mud on the road, it did not cause any trouble to the team, they drove about twenty kilometers of the road, which is considered a normal speed in this weather.

But there was always something in the hearts of the three squad leaders who couldn't let go, especially since this road had to pass through a hilly area about ten kilometers long, and there were three roads to pass through in this hilly area, but the closest road to them was entrenched in a group of thieves.

The leading officer of this baggage team is a quartermaster of the Beijing Army, not too tall, with a national face, usually frowning, so that a "Chuan" word is formed between the two eyebrows, and at a glance, I know that this person's personality should be resolute, and people with this character should not come to be a quartermaster, which makes the three squad leaders a little bit incomprehensible.

And this quartermaster was leading everyone straight towards the gang of thieves, they knew very well about the Feiteng regiment, which was already the head of the earth, and brought it up on the first day, but the quartermaster didn't seem to hear it at all, and still advanced towards the mountain pass.

The first day was able to cover 20 kilometers at the urging of this military quartermaster, but on the second day it was obviously impossible to maintain the high speed of the first day, because the wind and snow suddenly increased a lot, and even the next morning, the convoy could not do it after removing the wheels and replacing them with sleds, which were more suitable for snow progress.

The second day only traveled less than ten kilometers, but the military quartermaster who urged forward on the first day did not rush desperately on the second day, which made the three squad leaders breathe a sigh of relief, if they hadn't walked more than 20 kilometers, they all wanted to turn back immediately, this kind of heavy snow weather is really not suitable for hurrying.

On the second day of camping, the three squads proposed to the quartermaster that they should take some measures to keep the vehicle warm, otherwise, it would be easy to freeze the car in a night of low temperature, but this proposal did not receive the support of the quartermaster, so they could only do a good job of keeping the horses and mules warm, and the car should be left in the snow.

Sure enough, when he got up early in the morning of the third day, the sleds were already frozen on the ground, and half of the cars were sunk into the snow, and it took more than three hours to dig these cars out of the snow, and it was not until ten o'clock that the convoy was on the road, and the quartermaster seemed to be even more unhurried, and even his brows were not furrowed all the time, and sometimes he even smiled.

It was not yet three o'clock in the afternoon, and the quartermaster asked for a lot of camping, but this time he asked everyone to park all their vehicles on the leeward side, and asked everyone to do a good job of keeping the vehicles warm.

At this time, the three squad leaders were gathered in the tent of a small team leader, and in the fire hall dug on the spot in the tent, the flames were burning fiercely, so that the temperature in the tent did not rise much.

The leader of a squad said to his two companions: "I always have a bad feeling along the way, especially this Quartermaster Liu, he doesn't look like a quartermaster at all, and the three-day itinerary is incomprehensible,...... He seemed to deliberately arrange for us to hurry on the first day, just so that we couldn't turn back!"

He looked at the other two people, both of them looked at him, he continued: "Last night, we asked to keep the car warm, but he didn't agree, today we dug for three hours, and it was just three o'clock to let us go to camp, today the snow is obviously lighter, and we can drive for another two hours, and today we have done a good job of keeping warm, how do you think he plans to go tomorrow!"

The captain of the fourth squad took over and said, "Isn't this good? I calculated, if we can catch a 15-kilometer road tomorrow, we can rush to the outside of the mountain pass, and the day after tomorrow we can just pass the entire mountain road, I think this is what Liu Junjian meant!"

The captain of the second squad nodded after hearing this, and said in agreement: "The fourth is right, this current arrangement is quite decent, and there is nothing wrong with it, boss, are you a little allergic?"

"I'm afraid it's not so easy, if we rush to the fifteen-kilometer road tomorrow, judging from the weather in the past few days, it will be dark when we get to the mountain pass, we will definitely not have time to arrange more perfect defense work, that black wind village is not far from the mountain pass, what if they come to attack at night?"

"There's no need to worry about this, right? Can those thieves still get out in this weather?" the leader of the second team looked up at the roof of the tent that could not see the sky.

The captain of the first squad thought about it, he stood up and walked out of the tent, there was still snow in the sky, but it was not as big as the previous two days, and the other two squad leaders also came out, they raised their heads together, and the captain of the fourth squad said: "Boss, second, look at this day, the snow should stop tomorrow, and tomorrow it should be able to rush a lot." ”

The captain of the squad nodded and said, "Yes, we can travel a lot tomorrow, but I'm still a little worried, I always feel like someone is watching us for the past two days!" With that, he looked back at a wood, as if there was something there, and when he looked at the woods, the shadow of a gargoyle had just disappeared in the night on the tallest tree in the woods.
