The horse walked on the snow with difficulty, the snow was really heavy, more than two feet thick, the road was very difficult, the horse could not run at all, could only walk step by step, and the person could not walk at all, one foot could not reach the knee, fortunately this is nothing for the horse, just a little difficult to walk. The group walked in the snow for a day and a night, but still no sign of the army was found. The vast white snow grinded everyone to the point that they had no temper at all, and there was almost no dry food, so if they continued like this, they could only turn around and go back. Suddenly, the eagle's nose moved, and he made a stop gesture for everyone to stop, and then they all dismounted. The black wolf stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

"There's someone over there. The eagle said, pointing in the direction the wind was blowing.

"How far?"

"I don't know, but it's not too far. It's probably a two-mile road. ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure. ”

After listening to the Flying Eagle's words, the black wolf looked at Jack again, and Jack nodded, "The prairie people are very famous for listening to the wind, and they can know something from the wind that others don't know. ”

"Alright, Kritz, you go with the Eagle to figure things out. The others dismounted and stood by in place. ”

"Yes. The crowd replied. Then the two quickly dismounted, and proceeded cautiously in the direction where the man had been found. Others dismounted and rested in place. Looking at the direction in which the flying eagles disappeared, Kong Ming asked Jack strangely: "Jack, what is listening to the wind?"

"Listening to the wind? listening to the wind is a method of tracking, if you are in the downwind direction, and the person you want to track is in the direction of the upwind, then you just need to listen carefully to hear his sound in the movement, of course, this is a certain distance, but if the person is not moving, or doing some movements that can make a sound, then you can't hear the sound he makes, of course, there is another way at this time, that is, smell, as long as your nose is sensitive enough, then you can smell the wind with his smell. Together, these two are called listening to the wind, because they are usually used together. Of course, this is not something that everyone can master, it is good to hear, as long as there is a certain distance, anyone can hear, but smelling is not so simple, this can take a long time to learn to master, although everyone knows the method, but not everyone knows, this is the reason, but people who grew up in the prairie are generally very good at this. Jack explained.

"And will you?"

"Yes, this is what you all understand, that is, listen to whether there is a sound, the rest is not clear, I only know that there is such a thing, but it will not, if you want to know, you can ask Feiying, he will definitely sue you, because this is not a secret, people on the grassland understand, but other places do not use it much. ”

After Kong Ming heard it, he thought about it, not knowing if he could learn this skill, but then he abandoned this idea again, sat down cross-legged, and cultivated, during this time, Kong Ming did not let go of a little bit of cultivation time whether he was on the horse or resting, there was no way, after a few battles, whether it was a fallen comrade who got along with him day and night, or a soldier of the enemy army who died under his sword, there were a lot, he didn't know if he was next, all he could do was to use every moment of time to cultivate, and increase his capital to save his life on the battlefield。 The people were not surprised to see Kong Ming's appearance, because they were already accustomed to it, so they rested on their own, and there was no other sound, and even if there was, it was very quiet, because no one knew that a louder voice would attract the enemy. I don't know how long it took, Kong Ming heard the sound of someone approaching from a distance, everyone looked over to the place where the sound came from, and saw that it was Feiying and Kriz, and they were all relieved. When they approached, the black wolf first asked, "How is it?"

"It looks like an enemy squad, with more than a dozen people, it doesn't look like a scout, but it looks like a vigilance. ”

"Alert, if it is alert, then we can be said to be very close to the enemy. Do you see clearly?" asked the black wolf after a moment of contemplation.

"Clearly, there were only sixteen people we could see, two of them were standing there and watching, the others were cooking beside a fire, and in the direction they came there was a long list of footprints, as if there were many people walking by, and there was mud on the snow, and I felt that there were many people there in the snow behind them. Flying Eagle said.

"If that's the case, then we're probably not far from their big camp, Captain. Jack said.

"We're still going to have to watch carefully. Jack, you go there in person, and Kong Ming is also with you. Pay attention to whether it is a vigilance or a scout. ”

"Okay. Kong Ming goes. Jack said, and then the two of them went in the direction of the enemy, putting on their white cloaks, and the two of them carefully touched the place where the enemy was. In winter, it gets dark relatively quickly, and not long after Kong Ming and Jack have left, the sky is dark, and people can only look not far away according to the astigmatism of the snow, and at this time, the enemy's fire has become the guiding light of Jack and Kong Ming. After getting close to the enemy, both of them entered a stealth state, so that people could not find it, they did not rely on stealth to go all the way to the enemy, but lay down on the ground, slowly touching the enemy, because only in this way, so as not to leave footprints on the ground, less than twenty meters away from the enemy, the two stopped, quietly listening to the enemy's conversation, because this is the best way to obtain information. Kong Ming stared at those soldiers, their armor and Karry's armor looked the same, but Peugeot was completely different from Kari's armor, it was the standard armor of the Empire, from this point of view, this was Huatian's soldiers, and, since they were wearing armor instead of leather armor, no wonder the Flying Eagle would say that they were vigilant rather than scouts, because the general scouts were wearing leather armor for convenience, and their words were not Kari's accent, but the standard imperial accent, there was no doubt that this was the enemy, there were two people standing there, in charge of the sentry, and there were fourteen people sitting next to the fire, a total of sixteen, it seemed that they were a group of knightsfor they all had a long knight's spear in their saddle, and a long sword stuck at their waists. Looking in a straight line with them, there were many footprints, which looked like the marks left by the patrol. However, Jack didn't seem to be satisfied with this little discovery, he wanted to observe for a while, and Kong Ming was about to go backwards because he was not as long as he did, Jack wrote a symbol on the snow in front of him to let him not move, which made Kong Ming stop again, Kong Ming had to stay, but his stealth time was about to pass, only motionless, hoping that the enemy would not find him. Maybe the enemy was too careless, maybe Kong Ming's disguise was very good, maybe Kong Ming's luck was very good, in short, when Kong Ming's stealth was removed, the enemy didn't find Kong Ming's storage, from above, he really couldn't see anything, there was a white blank everywhere, but Kong Ming didn't know about this situation, he just hoped that the enemy wouldn't look over, and at the same time, in order not to let the enemy find out, he lowered his breathing, almost the same as no breathing. The sentry came over several times, which made Kong Ming very worried, but he never came over, just stood on the spot and stomped his feet, Kong Ming suddenly felt that someone had seen him coming, which made him startled, and hurriedly squinted his eyes, Kasia once said, if the person you look at is a master, then he will have a certain induction, as if there are eyes behind him, Kong Ming once asked Kasia at that time, what kind of master will have this reaction, Kasia said like him. Kong Ming only thought that it was Kasia bragging at the time, but judging from today's situation, there is indeed a person like Kasia here, and judging from the enemy's table just now, it should be that the captain of the enemy has such strength. The man's eyes swept over, as if he didn't find anything, and continued their words, but that glance really scared Kong Ming into a cold sweat, and soon Kong Ming felt that his body seemed to be very cold, there was no way, it was not that Kong Ming was timid, it was really that there were too many enemies here, and it was not that Kong Ming could deal with it. At this time, Kong Ming will no longer sneak away, for fear of attracting the enemy's attention because of his abnormality. That's how time passes slowly. Kong Ming and Jack were just under the nose of the enemy, lurking, once, the enemy's sentry walked towards Kong Ming, step by step, the snow on the ground was very deep, it could be seen that the person was walking very hard, Kong Ming looked at him coming, first taken aback, but immediately calmed down, holding a dagger in his hand, there was no change in his whole body, just squinting his eyes, quietly observing the enemy's movements, because if the enemy found him, it would never be like this, he would have called out a long time ago, and Jack was probably afraid that Kong Ming would react, staring at the enemy tightly, but he didn't dare to have a trace of movement, The sentry he walked until he was about two meters in front of Kong Ming, before stopping, then took off his pants and urinated on the spot, the urine with the hot breath, as soon as it fell into the snow, the snow was washed out of a small hole, and the heat dissipated at once, Kong Ming did not look at the sentry, but felt that the enemy seemed to be relieved, and walked back step by step. Seeing this situation, Kong Ming's heart suddenly relaxed, as for the gas that had stimulated him, he directly ignored it, after all, this is not a good thing. And Jack also breathed a sigh of relief, he was really afraid that Sora was young and ignorant, as long as he couldn't stabilize it, the two of them might be left here by the enemy. After this time, the two of them were even more cautious when lurking, after all, there is only one fate.

"Well, head, when will I be able to go back? It always makes me tremble here, and I always feel as if something bad has happened. A soldier sitting next to the fire said.

"What's the hurry? As soon as the snow has passed, it is impossible for the enemy to rush over. The soldier who had worried Kong Ming replied.

"I heard that the enemy has more than 500,000 people, and we only have 60,000 people, can we withstand the enemy's attack? Another soldier asked.

"We're just here to test and prob, not to fight a real war with Kari. ”

"The battle is like this, it's still a temptation, captain, don't lie to us. One soldier said in surprise.

"What do you know!" said the captain dismissively, "our main mission this time is not to fight Kari, you know, to test Kari's attitude and readiness for battle, now that the mission has been completed and the snow has stopped, we will be back in a few days." ”

"Captain, how do you know that we sacrificed so many people just to test Kari's attitude and situation?" the soldier asked, obviously incredulous.

"Of course, we've already tried it out, haven't you seen it? In this battle, almost all of the enemy's soldiers have appeared, there are so many new soldiers, and the enemy's main force has almost all come out, there should be no backhand, after all, the enemy has even driven over the defensive army opposite the Harvey Empire. The captain said.

"Go back early, go back early, don't have to blow the wind in this hellish place, alas, it's too cold here. ”

"yes, go back early. ”

......

After listening to the enemy's words, Sora signaled to Jack if he wanted to go back, but Jack did not move and continued to lurk. More than an hour passed, and just as Kong Ming wanted to call Jack again to signal him to go back, he suddenly heard the soldiers say something that surprised Kong Ming.

"Captain, why do you say you want us to keep repeating that topic throughout the day?"

"Shut up," said the captain in a low and stern voice, "** want to die! If you want us to say it, we will say, don't discuss it here, beware of the enemy's thieves." ”

"Where did the thieves come from? We've been waiting for two days and haven't seen a single ghost. The soldier complained.

"No, a batch came a few hours ago, hum, half-dropped sneakers also came here to show off, what a joke. ”

"Have any thieves been here?" the other soldiers startled.

"Of course, for some reason, we didn't come close at all, and I just felt that someone was watching us again, but it disappeared for a while, and I don't know if the words we said reached their ears?" the captain whispered. Kong Ming is now completely confused, is the one the enemy said true? It didn't take long for Jack to signal Kong Ming to leave, and the two took advantage of the enemy's sentry to shift their gaze, turned on sneaking and slowly left the enemy, and walked back.

Back at the resting place, Kong Ming let out a long breath, and Jack said it to the black wolf he heard and saw, and asked Kong Ming to add it, in case one of them missed something. After listening to what the two said, the black wolf pondered for a long time. Everyone doesn't know which one the enemy said is true, the discussion has been for a long time, and there is no result, some say that they can go back now, after all, their task is to find out the location of the enemy's camp, and now they have come here, the enemy's camp is near here, as long as they see the enemy's camp, even if the task is completed, but some are another way, saying that the enemy can only go back after figuring out the situation, and finally the ruffian said with a smile: " Simply, let's kill all the guards, arrest the captain, and let the others busy, we have an explanation, and we don't have to take any more risks. As soon as he finished speaking, he directly regretted it, because he saw the black wolf's two eyes staring straight at him, and said something that made him regret it even more, "Your idea is good." Everyone looked at the black wolf in surprise, and the crow's mouth was even more annoyed. But then Jack also said, "Yes, we can only complete this mission if we have a quick solution and capture the captain back." ”

"Well, Jack said it all. First, let Jack give a general account of the enemy. ”

"The total number of enemies is sixteen, judging from their equipment, they should all be knights, among which their captain may be a five-capable knight, only the black wolf can fight with it here, and the rest are third-level knights, at least from their knight badges, and my sense is the same. The distribution of the enemy is like this. Jack said as he drew the enemy in the snow. "Two sentries, one facing us, and one facing away from us, in the middle is where the enemy sits, the captain is in this position, and the others are scattered around the fire, and they are wearing standard knight's armor, which is a very strong armor, and if we want to do it, we must choose the weak part of the enemy, otherwise, we will let the enemy drag us in trouble. Their horses are in this position, and their guns are also placed here, which means that if we are going to assault, we must prevent them from escaping in this direction. ”

"Jack has already said it, so now I'll divide the tasks. Everyone pay attention to listen, if you don't understand, just ask, Jack and Kong Ming, the two of you sneak to the enemy's upper hand, and then after all the people are in place, dilute the Ecstasy Scroll, after the enemy falls, try your best to kill a few enemies close to you, this, this, and these are all killed, **, Cold Sword The two of you, lean on this side, and wait until Jack and they succeed, quickly lean over and solve these four enemies, James, Flying Eagle, The three of you slowly leaned over from this side and killed these six, and Fang Tong and Du Hu leaned on the side of the enemy's war horse to prevent anyone from escaping on horseback. I'm in the downwind position, after the enemy falls, I will catch the enemy's captain, we must move quickly, the most important thing to pay attention to here is Jack and Kong Ming, you two must be fast, the key to success or failure is whether you can fascinate everyone unconsciously. Here's the scroll, for you, Jack, here's the antidote, one for each person, and eat it at about the same time. Did you hear me clearly? After seeing that everyone nodded, the black wolf directly ordered to set off.

An hour later, Kong Ming slowly touched the position of the enemy who was upwind, Jack was walking in front of Kong Ming, the surroundings were calm, only the wind was still whistling, Kong Ming took advantage of the advantageous position of the upper hand, quietly observed the enemy's situation, the enemy didn't seem to know that someone came here to sneak attack them, still swaggering there to eat barbecue, but unfortunately Kong Ming was in the upper wind, there was no way to smell the tempting fragrance, can only look at them coldly and happy. Jack looked around, estimated that those people had arrived at the predetermined position, motioned to Kong Ming to take the antidote, and then began to gently tear open the ecstasy scroll, only to see a slightly darker breeze join the natural wind, the wind quickly passed through the area where the enemy was, and it didn't take long for Kong Ming to see those soldiers fall to the ground and fall asleep. The sentry fell to the ground softly. After waiting for a while, after there was no movement, Kong Ming still carefully touched it, and when he passed the sentry again, the dagger gently slashed the sentry's neck, and a blood oozed out from there, and the sentry lost his life at once, and the person softened all of a sudden. After seeing Kong Ming kill the sentry, Jack put the torn scroll into his arms and began to touch the place where the enemy was concentrated, and after the others smelled the ecstasy, they also began to touch the enemy in the predetermined place. This is the enemy's territory, they can't be careless, if they are not careful, they will soon say goodbye to this world, so in the black wolf team, there is a group of careful people. But apparently the black wolf was too careful, and until the black wolf tied up the captain, nothing happened, and the other fifteen people were killed by Kong Ming and them in silence. There were no accidents, and the task was completed smoothly. Carefully and quickly transferred, without taking one of the enemy's horses with him, because the black wolf was afraid that the movement of the horse would be too big and attract the enemy, which was not very cost-effective. Back to the place where the black wolf put their horses, put the fascinated enemy on the horse where no one sat and tied it up, led by the flying eagle, everyone carefully left this place where they could meet the enemy at any time, when the black wolf they walked carefully for two hours, it was estimated that they were far away from the enemy, the black wolf let everyone start to let go of the speed of the horse, all the way to the camp.
