Volume 1 The Return of the Old Man Chapter 98 Who came to Chong

Han Changdui turned the cup on his fingertips with a solemn expression: "Although I am not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I am also very sorry for my life, and I will never rashly do something that I am not sure of." ”

With that, he reached back.

Yao Qi raised his eyebrows, took down the bow hanging on the wall, and handed over another feather arrow.

Han Changwan pulled the bow, stretched out his hand to break the tip of the arrow, first threw the broken tip of the arrow, and then shot the arrow with the bow at will, all in one go.

The slightest sound of wind passed through the ears, and then the heavy object fell to the ground.

Several people looked at each other.

The rope used to hang the map had broken in two, and the map had fallen, only to be nailed to the wall by the broken feather arrow.

Xu Xiangli glanced at the tip of the arrow that fell to the ground, his eyes tightened, he reached out and grabbed the feather arrow nailed to the wall, and pulled it outward.

The feathered arrow, which had no sharp point, penetrated more than an inch into the wall, leaving a thumb-sized hole in the wall, and the debris fell to the ground.

Xu Xiangli's face changed, and he smiled: "It seems that Brother Han is indeed confident." ”

Han Changdui took a sip of tea, as if joking, and said softly and slowly: "Compared with the brain-consuming battle of leading the troops, it is simpler and more suitable for me to shout and kill without using my brain." ”

Zhu Rong seemed to suddenly breathe a sigh of relief, and said with a hearty smile: "Brother Han is too humble, Brother Han's kung fu, if he joined the army, he would have been above me and Brother Xu a long time ago." ”

Han Changwan politely said a few words of modesty.

Xu Xiangli and Zhu Rong smiled and complimented a few words.

Yao Qi stood behind him, and he couldn't listen to it anymore.

She got goosebumps all over her body and fell to the ground.

Although everyone is willing to listen to good words, it is a bit too much to say.

After deciding the matter, Han Changwan smiled and suddenly spoke: "I took such a big risk to go out to deliver a letter, and there are some things, please ask Xu Shuguan to know everything." ”

Xu Xiangli was stunned for a moment, feeling ominous, but he still stabilized his mind and asked with a smile: "Oh, what's the matter, Brother Han just said it." ”

Han Changdui stared for a moment, and asked bluntly: "I also saw clearly just now, the Turks have one hundred and fifty or six, and they also used the crossbow, but the crossbow is disguised and camouflaged, and I can't see how many there are, the Turks have always coveted the border with our North Korea, and they have made a detailed understanding of the Fengsui Station, and they should know the details of the Fifth Beacon, what is so special about such a Fengsui with only thirty garrisons, that it will lead the Turks to besiege it at any cost, and it has been besieged all night." He paused slightly, and looked at Xu Xiangli: "Officer Xu, what the Turks are planning and what they are afraid of, I think, you should be very clear." ”

A few surprised and puzzled eyes looked at Xu Xiangli in unison.

Xu Xiangli's eyebrows jumped, and he smiled with a concealed smile: "I don't understand what Brother Han said. ”

Han Changdui still said slowly: "Officer Xu, if you don't make this matter clear, how do we know where the weakness of the Turks is, and how can we break through, Officer Xu, even if you are not afraid of death and do not spare your life, but the lives of the soldiers under your command who followed you to death should be regarded by you as a mustard." ”

This interrogation was quite deafening, and it made Xu Xiangli a little hairy.

He lowered his head slightly, and his calm mood finally broke a little.

He is indeed not afraid of death, because he has no worries, no family, no children, no relatives and no friends.

But they are different, some of them have young sons to raise, some have parents to support, and each of them has a concern.

The horse leather shroud is the psychological preparation that every person who serves in the army has long had.

But thousands of miles of yellow sand must be returned eventually, and who doesn't want to live.

Thinking of the soldiers who had followed him for many years, his heart softened, and he finally abandoned those indescribable barriers, and spoke slowly and solemnly: "What I want to say next is about the stability of the border, and please keep your mouth shut." ”

Han Changwan and the others nodded solemnly.

Xu Xiangli sorted out his thoughts for a while, and said slowly: "I guess you all saw the crossbow just now." ”

Han Changwan and the others nodded.

Xu Xiangli continued: "Ten years ago, our dynasty made the first crossbow in the ordnance superintendent, but the ordnance superintendent was stolen, the manufacturing map was stolen, and the craftsman died. ”

Even ten years ago, Yao Qi was still young, but later she entered the Beiya Forbidden Army, and the case of theft of the weapons supervisor was regarded as an unsolved case and was mentioned again and again.

Thinking of this, Yao Qi's eyes suddenly turned cold.

Xu Xiangli is now a military officer, and he estimated that he was an ordinary soldier ten years ago, how could he know the inside story of the theft of the ordnance supervisor.

How did he know that the fabrication had been stolen and the craftsman had died?

Before she could figure it out, Han Changdui suddenly asked: "Officer Xu Shu should have never been an errand in the ordnance superintendent, how could he know the inside story of the theft of the ordnance superintendent." ”

Hearing Han Changdui ask like this, Yao Qi was stunned for a moment, and looked at him with emotion, who expected that he happened to meet his searching gaze.

Her heart shook and she avoided her eyes.

Han Changdui pursed his lips.

It's really a good idea.

Xu Xiangli let out a long sigh, knowing that if he didn't explain these things clearly today, he wouldn't be able to do good.

Speaking of that long and deep hidden in the heart of the eventful years, he became more and more calm like water, those years of swords and blood have infiltrated into the deep bone marrow early, he said in a deep voice: "Although I have never been in the ordnance superintendent, but ten years ago, after the ordnance superintendent was stolen, someone in the army found me and sent me and several others into the Turks, and in the following years, we returned to Hexi one after another, and only one stayed in the Turks. ”

This was vague, but Han Changwan heard it clearly, and he understood it even more in his heart.

This Xu Xiangli and several others were all meticulous works that had been sent to the Turks, but in the end, only one of them successfully pierced.

Able to do meticulous work, regardless of success or not, they are people with exceptionally strong minds, willing to be incognito for the country and the people, and have the courage to sacrifice their lives for righteousness, and are worthy of face and respect.

He didn't speak, just looked straight at Xu Xiangli.

Xu Xiangli said calmly: "Three days ago, the man who stayed in the Turks suddenly broke into the Fifth Beacon with an injury, I originally wanted to send him to Dunhuang as soon as possible, but his injuries were too serious to withstand the bumps along the way, so I had to stay in the Fifth Beacon to recuperate." He paused, and his voice suddenly lowered: "I think the Turks are coming for him." ”

"He brought out the secret about the crossbow." Han Changdui asked.

Xu Xiangli struggled for a moment, and said slowly: "Yes, it is the map of crossbow manufacturing that the Turks just drawn, and after nearly ten years of improvement, it is no longer what it used to be. ”

After hearing this, several people sighed.

Zhu Rong frowned and said: "No wonder the Turks are crazy, it turns out that this person actually brought such an important thing out." There was a little more subtle relief in his words: "Brother Xu, when that person came out of the Turks, did he also destroy the Turkic manufacturing map?" ”

Xu Xiangli nodded: "Yes, that's why the Turks are so crazy." ”

Han Changwan leaned back relaxedly, leaning against the wall, his cool breath penetrating through his clothes, clutching his flesh and bones.

He thought for a moment and said slowly: "Since the Turks are coming for this person, he doesn't dare to use his crossbow to attack the fort easily. ”

Zhu Rong slapped his thigh: "That's right, if the fort collapses and kills people, the Turks will be beaten with chickens and eggs." ”

Xu Xiangli nodded: "I think so too." He leaned over slightly, lowered his voice and said, "I think so, since the Turks are coming for him, then we might as well send a few cars out and pretend to be suspicious." ”

Han Changwan raised his eyebrows and smiled slightly: "I hid in the car and took the opportunity to go out to deliver the letter." ”

Several people hit it off.

Xu Xiangli breathed a sigh of relief, glad that they didn't ask where the manufacturing map was, nor did they ask where the person was hiding.

These were his greatest secrets, and his deepest concerns.

This man was carrying the most important thing related to the stability of the border, and he would rather destroy it than fall into the hands of the Turks.

Han Changdui was silent for a moment, and suddenly spoke: "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, Officer Xu, I will definitely live up to my trust." ”

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." ”
