Chapter 465 The Dangerous Water, the Starry Night Wants to Cross, Looking for a Strange Path, the little brother came suddenly
The night was silent, at the end of the day and the beginning of the near time, Xu Lang's department was like a black dragon, walking along the edge of Wuling County towards Yiling, and gradually, it was only four or five miles away from the dangerous water.
It was a bold march, and in the darkness of the night, like ghosts, men and horses, approached their goal with the guidance of a sergeant who knew the way.
"General, not far ahead, we will reach the dangerous water, this late night transition, I'm afraid there will be difficulties!"
The sergeant who led the way was familiar with geography and reported back to Xu Lang very responsibly.
"Well, that's good. I guess that on the other side of the Weishui River, some men and horses must have lost some men and horses to camp on the other side to stop my army! ”
Xu Lang had already thought about this matter, and knew that if he didn't catch up with the great prince at this time, then he must have passed the dangerous water. And with his habits, he will definitely camp on the other side of the dangerous water, and he will not allow himself to transition easily.
"But I'm going to get over this dangerous water tonight! Someone came, the order went down, the whole army rested on the spot, and after two hours, the troops were in danger! ”
Xu Lang knew that although the soldiers had no complaints during this rapid march, no one was iron-clad, and proper rest was very necessary.
After a while, a large number of soldiers were swarthy and silent.
……
Around the ugly hour, Xu Lang, who was resting against an unknown small tree, was awakened by the scout in front of him.
"Report to the general, on the other side of the dangerous water, there are countless camps!"
The news of the scout confirmed Xu Lang's judgment.
"That's it, this great son, play around, it's still this trick. By the way, are there any transition points that can be selected? ”
Xu Lang nodded and asked lightly.
"Just about to talk to the general about this, along the dangerous water for a mile, the river is slightly narrow, about seven or eight zhang, only the water is urgent, I don't know if it can be passed?"
The scout gave up his hand and reported again.
"Okay, seven or eight zhang, seven or eight zhang, that's enough!"
Xu Lang nodded again, already confident.
"Come on, take local materials, cut down some trees."
Seven or eight zhang of the river, with the light power of Xu Lang, with a little bit of strength, you can easily jump over. Trees were cut down to make it easier for the army to transition. After all, not every sergeant will do it lightly.
After about half a pillar of incense, several piles of wood with heads and tails removed have been felled.
"Brothers, after the dangerous water, let's rest again!"
didn't say much, Xu Lang decisively ordered.
As a result, the officers and men of each battalion all pulled up, and they all advanced lightly, and it was convenient for them to come and go.
The distance of a few miles was soon reached, but after all, it was a night march, and I don't know how many crops along the way were trampled on. In this regard, Xu Lang had to ask someone else to stay and deal with it. Naturally, there are also sparse families who have been awakened one after another. In order to prevent the grass from startling the snake, Xu Lang ordered people to be comforted, and finally did not make any big moves.
The scout took the lead to find that section of the river, Xu Lang looked up, and there were shadows on the opposite bank, which was really unreal, faint, but he could hear the rumbling of the river.
"The water is not shallow!"
Xu Lang muttered to himself.
Listening to the sound of the water, the current is also rapid, the depth of the water is uncertain, and the situation on the other side is not clear. It seems that there is only a narrow shoal, and the back against it looks like a cliff. If so, it will have some effect on the march.
"General, there is a local guy who asks to see the general!"
Just when Xu Lang hesitated slightly, the guards led a man to report.
Under the lights, Xu Lang saw that this man had a simple face, a little restrained, and countless patches on his coarse cloth clothes, which was not much better than the beggar disciples.
"Why does this brother want to see me?"
Xu Lang didn't know what he meant, so he quickly changed his face and asked with a smile.
