Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 97 Who Sent the Letter

Yao Qi heard the threat from Han Changdu's calm voice, she took a breath, pulled the corners of her mouth, and smiled hard: "How can it, good things should be honored to you." ”

Han Chang's star-like eyes flashed, the corners of his mouth were extremely tight, and he smiled as if he was nothing.

He turned his eyes to stare into the night, and his voice was as cold as frost on the tile: "What secrets are there in this fort, which would make the Turks come to besiege and attack with such fanfare, and even the elite of the Blood Eagle Department has been dispatched." ”

A single Blood Eagle Banner is not enough to prove which team from the Turkic Blood Eagle Division came, but the few crossbows hidden behind it are unique to the most elite Eagle Division in the actual Blood Eagle Division.

He turned his head to look at Yao Qi, and had a new understanding of her delicate heart, she could distinguish a crossbow from so many disguises in such a dark night.

This thought should not be underestimated.

He looked at Yao Qi's gaze and couldn't help but gradually deepen.

Yao Qi looked at Han Changdu's face, her heart was really up and down, there was no bottom, Han Changdui looked at her, she felt a sudden break in her heart, and she smiled without words: "Childe, this, after dawn, what can I do." ”

Han Changdui didn't follow Yao Qi's words, but said in his words: "It seems that Ah Qi is also very familiar with the Turks." ”

Yao Ji was stunned for a moment, and said embarrassedly: "What is written in the book, what is written in the book, I just flipped through it casually." ”

Han Changwan raised his eyebrows and deliberately said, "You said that this crossbow could not be borrowed from the Blood Eagle Department by other tribes." ”

How could Yao Qi not hear Han Changdui playing tricks on her, she didn't believe that Han Changdui didn't know anything about this crossbow, but she smiled indifferently, she even took out the unique clairvoyant mirror in the Northern Ya Forbidden Army, and what else could not be leaked, as long as it could repel the Turks, it didn't matter what the bottom was.

She raised her eyebrows and smiled: "Childe is cheating on me, Childe is well-informed, and there are not even a few crossbows in our Dajing, not to mention the Turks, the Blood Eagle Department looks at these crossbows more tightly than eyeballs, let alone lending them to other tribes, even if it is the Blood Eagle Department itself, except for the Eagle Division, it is impossible to get involved in half a point." ”

Han Changwan smiled faintly and took a breath: "I didn't mean to test you, it's just that with these crossbows, it is faster than usual to capture the Fifth Guild, and it is even more difficult to break out of the encirclement and go out to deliver the letter." ”

Gu Chen also understood the whole story, he had lived in Chang'an for a long time, although it was the first time he had met the Turks, but he had already heard of the strong and bloody Turks.

He sighed sadly: "Don't say that we don't have the ability to fly to the sky, even if we have, when we show up, we have to be shot into a sieve by the crossbow." ”

Before dawn, there was a faint light on the far and far horizon, and the entire sky was as blue as ink, the moon was like water, and the cold stars were like rays.

Han Changdui stood with his hands in his hands, and the wind above the fort was strong, blowing his clothes fluttering, and he became more and more lonely.

He stared at the deep and lonely night, and said lightly: "Ah Qi, with your light skills, can you retreat in the crossbow?" “

The corners of Yao Qi's eyes jumped, and he opened his mouth.

What do you think, it's a crossbow, it is said that the bolts fired can knock down the city walls, knock down the house, and make her retreat from the crossbow, no kidding, she is not a copper-headed iron arm.

She twitched the corners of her mouth and pulled out a smile with great difficulty: "Childe, I heard that the Turks' crossbows are very powerful, they can fire thirty-five crossbow arrows at a time, and the houses that can be shot a mile away have collapsed. ”

Han Changdui didn't look back, and said calmly: "Then what." ”

Yao Qi choked and stomped his feet a little angrily: "You may have the ability to retreat with all your might, but I don't." ”

Han Changwan picked the corners of his mouth and did not speak.

After a moment of silence, he took the lead in walking down the fort, his tone was as calm as before, and he was not half frightened by the sudden siege: "It's almost dawn, go to see Xu Xiangli, there are some things that he still needs to explain clearly." ”

Gu Chen and Yao Qi looked at each other, not understanding what Han Changwan was talking about.

Walking into the fort, Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rong were already discussing with Yutu.

Seeing Han Changwan and the three of them walking in, Xu Xiangli looked back and said heavily: "Brother Han is here, come, use the morning food first." ”

Han Changdui lifted the hem of his clothes and sat down calmly.

A garrison had already come in with steaming clear soup and jade tip noodles and put it in front of the three of them.

After being busy all night, the water and rice did not enter, not only Han Changdui and the others, but also the others were already hungry.

As soon as Han Changwan picked a mouthful of jade tip noodles and put it to his mouth, he heard a soft gurgling sound behind him, and he hurriedly turned his head, just in time to see Yao Qi put down his hand rubbing his stomach in embarrassment.

He couldn't help but smile and said calmly: "Xu Shuguan, are there still many jade tip noodles?" ”

Xu Xiangli was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ordered the garrison to bring two bowls of jade noodles, and laughed loudly: "Ouch, look at my brain, I actually forgot Miss Ah Qi and Brother Gu, come and come, sit down and eat together." ”

Yao Qi and Gu Chen were also not polite, their hearts were close to their backs before they were hungry, what else was there to be polite, their heads were buried in the sea bowl, and they were snoring and eating happily.

After eating a bowl of jade tip noodles, the sky was already bright.

A faint clear moon hid behind the clouds, revealing a faint light.

Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rongtou discussed for a while, and said to Han Changdu: "Brother Han, let's go to the fort and take a closer look." ”

Han Changwan nodded.

A few people re-ascended the fort, and the canopy, which was as dark as lead in the middle of the night, was already showing a blue glow.

The yellow sand and dust in the distance flew quietly, and a little cold light loomed.

Xu Xiangli took the clairvoyant mirror, looked at it carefully, his face became more and more solemn, he sank badly, and handed the clairvoyant mirror to Zhu Rong with his backhand.

Looking at it like this, the faces of several people are not very good.

Although Han Changdui already knew about the existence of crossbows among the Turks, he couldn't see how many Turks had come in the night.

If it's already lit up today, you can see it very clearly.

Several people were speechless, and with a heavy heart, they slowly walked back to the fort, looking at the map on the wall, and the vertical and horizontal differences on it were also extremely difficult to distinguish.

Xu Xiang thought about it for a while, and slammed the bookcase: "I have looked at it carefully, there are Turks in four directions, it seems that there are about one hundred and fifty or sixty people, and there are also crossbows, which are not good. ”

Zhu Rong touched his chin, obviously he didn't expect a crossbow to appear, he shouted in surprise: "It's okay if so many people come, why did you still come with a crossbow, using the posture of attacking the city and grabbing the land to fight a beacon, make a big fuss." ”

Han Changwan took a sip of tea, and asked as if he had no intention of doubting: "What is so strange about this Fifth Beacon that it has attracted the Turks to attack with great fanfare." ”

Xu Xiangli's expression froze, and he coughed lightly in disguise, and his words were a little flustered: "The Fifth Beacon has always been a fortress on the Yiwu Road, and it is normal for the Turks to come to attack, and the Fifth Beacon is surrounded, with our existing troops, at most it will hold on for half a day, I want to use this half-day effort to send people out for help." ”

Zhu Rong nodded in agreement: "Yes, what Brother Xu said, let's discuss the matter of sending the letter out." ”

Xu Xiangli stretched out his hand and nodded on the map, and circled two places respectively: "It's still what I said before, one is to go to the fourth beacon, and the other is to go to Xingxing Gorge." ”

Zhu Rong said: "Brother Xu, go to the Fourth Feng, I will order the nameless personal soldiers, and I will bring reinforcements back within half a day." ”

Xu Xiangli was noncommittal and looked at Han Changdui: "Brother Han thinks so." ”

It is a matter of life and death, Han Changdui has nothing to avoid, he bent his fingers and tapped lightly, and said bluntly: "There are only thirty people in the Fourth Beacon Army, and it is useless to come here, and there are two hundred garrisons in Xingxing Gorge, I think 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: "The Turkic attack should not be underestimated, but the fifth beacon is easy to defend and difficult to attack, if the troops are properly deployed, it can still hold out for half a day." He turned his eyes to look at Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rong, and his expression was calm: "Xu Shuguan, Zhu Shuguan, the fifth Feng still needs to test the two of you to be stationed, and I can do it for you." ”

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." ”
