At present, there are less than fifty people in the Fifth Beacon, but the Turks do not know how many.

The Turks besieged the Fifth Beacon, and it is not yet known whether they can hold the Beacon, but it is necessary to issue an early warning now.

Xu Xiangli ordered the garrison to go to the beacon tower, but who expected that after a moment's effort, the garrison hurried down and said in a panic: "The commander, the fire drill, Artemisia wormwood, wolf dung and cow dung are gone." ”

"What." Xu Xiangli was shocked: "Didn't you just burn the peace fire?" ”

The garrison was so anxious that his face was covered with sweat and panicked: "Yes, it was just a peaceful fire, but now there is nothing on the beacon." ”

Han Changdui heard it clearly, and the more he listened, the heavier his heart became.

Without the beacon fire, the beacon more than 60 miles away would not have known the situation here.

Without early warning and distress, reinforcements could not arrive, and these dozens of people alone could not last long.

He turned his head to look at Yao Qi.

I saw that her expression was calm, and she didn't hear the panic and despair that the Turks should have when they were besieged, but the burden she was carrying on her back looked a little strange, bulging, as if it contained a lot of things.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

Is this for running away at any time?

Yao Qi looked up at the sky, and the dark sky was like a boulder, falling heavily on everyone's heads.

The Turks came and surrounded them here.

She tilted her head and silently recalled the people recorded in the book, using adjectives such as brave, iron-blooded, and good at war.

She rolled her eyes in a probing.

It's very difficult to deal with when you hear it.,The kind that doesn't have humanity.。

If you can't run, you should think about how to suffer less sin and die quickly.

Yao thought so, but he didn't do it.

She took out a cylinder from the homemade backpack she was carrying behind her and handed it to Xu Xiangli.

Xu Xiangli was stunned for a moment: "Miss Aqi, what is this?" ”

Yao Qi pursed his lips: "The improved clairvoyant mirror, you can try it." ”

Xu Xiangli was a little surprised, looking at the clairvoyant mirror in the direction he had just seen, and for a moment, he turned his head, his face full of shock and disbelief.

The vague scene of Fang Cai, in front of this clairvoyant mirror, seemed to be pulled in front of him, and although the night was deeply shrouded, it was enough to see the figures there swaying and the horses holding their heads high.

He was full of questions, but in an instant, he was ecstatic: "Girl, how can this be called a clairvoyant mirror, this is clearly a thousand miles mirror." ”

Zhu Rong also hurriedly took it, looked at it, and laughed in surprise: "You little girl really has some good things, but there is no such clear clairvoyant mirror like yours in the army, where did you get it." ”

Yao Qi smiled: "There is a shop opened by a big food merchant in Chang'an City, and there are all kinds of strange things in it, this one was bought from there, I changed it again, and it is easier to use." ”

Zhu Rong obviously had also heard of the shop opened by the big food merchant, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, I have also heard of it, saying that it is in the shop opened by the big food merchant, which is nothing strange, I have long wanted to open my eyes." ”

Yao Qi smiled and agreed: "Isn't it, if the two military officers have the opportunity to go to Chang'an, I will definitely be the east, and invite the two of you to have a good visit." ”

This kind of serious nonsense, Han Changwan couldn't listen to it for a long time.

He endured and endured, and finally he couldn't hold back, and coughed heavily.

Yao Qi suddenly came back to his senses, and his heart was empty, and there was no end to this big mountain.

Han Changwan glanced at Yao Qi lightly, with a playful chuckle in his eyes, and said in a serious and deep voice: "Xu Shuguan, Zhu Shuguan, just now we repelled the temptation of the Turks with the momentum of thunder, tonight they must not dare to attack again, but as soon as the day dawns, this little detail of the garrison army cannot hide their intentional investigation, and the attack will inevitably be more fierce than Fang Cai." ”

Xu Xiangli glanced at Han Changwan deeply, and sighed in his heart.

This is definitely not an insight that should be seen in an ordinary long history.

This thought only passed through his mind for a moment, and he nodded solemnly: "What Brother Han said is extremely true, the most important thing at the moment is to try to send the letter out. ”

Zhu Rong shook his head: "Brother Xu, the Turkic Iron Cavalry is stationed a mile away, and the news is not so easy to send." ”

Xu Xiangli arranged the matter of the garrison's lookout and vigilance, slowly walked down the fort, and whispered as he walked: "First pick out the people who are suitable to deliver the letter, find out the situation of the Turks, and send people out before dawn." ”

It was destined to be a sleepless night, and no one could sleep.

The fifth beacon looked quiet, as calm as ever, and even the yellow sand did not rise and fall at all.

But only the people inside the fort knew in their hearts what was hidden in the dark and dead night.

The garrisons scattered and guarded the fort.

All the remaining garrisons were temporarily moved into the post station, leaving the two garrisons and Helian Wenyuan to take care of them together.

Only Xu Xiangli's henchmen who were not poisoned were left in the fort, as well as Han Changwan and his party.

There was a picture hanging on the mottled wall, and Xu Xiangli held a lamp and looked closer.

The dim candlelight swayed gently on the map, and when it flickered, the shadow was swallowed up by the light.

In fact, Xu Xiangli was already familiar with the terrain around the fifth beacon, and this map had long been engraved in his heart, and he took it out at this time, just to let Han Changwei and others see it more clearly.

Xu Xiangli lightly tapped at the map, his expression calm: "There are two roads now, one is to go to the Fourth Beacon sixty-four miles to the southeast, and the other is to go to the Star Gorge sixty-eight miles to the northwest. ”

Now that he has been put to death, then he has to fight a way out.

On the contrary, his mind was as calm as water, and his words were calm, without the slightest urgency before the war.

Zhu Rong tapped his fingers lightly on the book case and said slowly: "Naturally, it is the safest to go to the fourth beacon, and I can kill it with my eyes closed." ”

This is a matter in the army, and there was originally no place for Han Changdui to speak, but Xu Xiangli raised his eyes and looked at him, he thought about it, and said lightly: "There are only thirty people in the Fourth Beacon Army, and there are two hundred garrisons in Xingxing Gorge, so it is better to go to Xingxing Gorge and ask for reinforcements." ”

Under the dim candlelight, Zhu Rong's expression froze for a moment, and he seemed to smile and said, "Brother Han knows so much about the situation of the garrison in Hexi. ”

Han Changwan just smiled and didn't say much.

Yao Qi stood behind Han Changdui and raised his eyebrows, this Zhu Rong seemed to be a little jealous of Han Changdui.

Xu Xiangli cruised on the map for a while, knocked on the place where Xingxing Gorge was located, and said in a deep voice: "This time the Turks are menacing, and the garrisons can delay for half a day at most, and the garrison of the Fourth Beacon is too few, so let's go to Xingxing Gorge." ”

Zhu Rong nodded as usual: "What Brother Xu said is very true, then go to Xingxing Gorge." ”

Yao Qi stood behind Han Changdui, right in front of Zhu Rong, and when Xu Xiangli was talking, she clearly saw a hint of gloom in Zhu Rong's eyes.

She was a little confused, took a few steps back, poured a cup of tea, handed it to Han Changdu's hand, and immediately lifted her eyelids in the direction of Zhu Rong.

Han Changwan lowered his head and smiled.

Sure enough, he is a clever person.

He nodded secretly.

After a moment of silence, Zhu Rong spoke in a deep voice: "In this case, after dawn, after the situation of the Turks is clearly investigated, I will order five personal soldiers and go to Xingxing Gorge." ”

Xu Xiangli shook his head and said: "This trip is very dangerous, I will go in person, and this fifth beacon will be handed over to Brother Zhu." ”

Zhu Rong insisted on refusing to shirk, and he was at a stalemate for a while.

Han Changdui took a sip of tea, the heat was on his face, he calmed down for a moment, looked at Xu Xiangli with a sincere and gentle expression, and said lightly: "If Officer Xu Shu can trust me, it is better for me to take the garrison to Xingxing Gorge for help." ”

Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rong were stunned and looked at each other in surprise.

Xu Xiangli came back to his senses and shook his head very quickly: "No, Brother Han must have extraordinary skills if he can go all the way here, but the Turks have always been fierce, and Brother Han is not a person in the army, I can't let you put yourself in danger." ”

Han Changdui turned the cup at his fingertips, and smiled indifferently: "Officer Xu, can you take a step to speak." ”

Xu Xiangli was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Zhu Rong looked at the figures of the two walking behind, his eyes sank.

Yao Qi looked at Zhu Rong's appearance, grinned, and smiled thoughtfully.

Gu Chen leaned into Yao Qi's ear and smiled strangely: "Okay, everyone has entered, don't chase after it." ”

Yao Qi snorted, snorted at Zhu Rong, turned his head and whispered, "Why is this person a little sneaky." ”

Gu Chen nodded: "I feel it too." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Xiangli and Han Changdui walked out from behind.

I don't know what Han Changdu said to Xu Xiangli when he was behind, Xu Xiangli actually saluted Han Changdui: "In this case, there is Brother Lao Han in this matter, I will order five personal soldiers and go to Xingxing Gorge with Brother Han." Brother Han, the safety of this fifth beacon is all on the brothers. ”

Han Changdui hurriedly helped Xu Xiangli up, and said with a gentle smile: "Don't worry, Xu Shuguan, I will definitely live up to the trust of the officer." ”

Hearing the two of them say this, Zhu Rong breathed a sigh of relief invisibly.

Yao Qi and Gu Chen raised their eyebrows and smiled at each other.

After deciding the matter, Han Changwan turned his head to look at Meng Suiqi and the others, and said in a deep voice: "After I leave, you must do your best to assist Xu Shuguan in garrisoning the Fifth Beacon, and you must not slack off in the slightest. ”

Several people said yes in unison.

Meng Sui said worriedly: "Childe, let your subordinates go with you, your subordinates can also protect you." ”

Han Changwan shook his head and refused: "You guys guard the fifth beacon and wait for me to come back with reinforcements." ”

Meng Suijie knew Han Changdu's temperament very well, and made up his mind that would never change, so he had to answer in a low voice.

After the discussion, Xu Xiangli went to order troops, and Han Changdui began to make preparations before breaking through.

The sky before dawn is particularly dark, and people are often the most tired and relaxed.

Han Changdui was wearing cold armor, carrying a crossbow on his back, and hanging an arrow bag on his legs, shining coldly under the moonlight, and the cold air was overwhelming.

In front of the closed fortress gate, there were two teams of garrisons, but there were only fifteen or sixteen people, but they were all the troops that the Fifth Beacon could call on at the moment.
