Alel is a regular scout in Ube who plays under Tuobarye. He has been a member of Ube for seven or eight years, and he can be regarded as a veteran, but he only has twenty-three heads in his name, which is extremely shabby compared to other Ube companions, but no one in Ube dares to laugh at Alel for this, without him, just because he has a keen sense of smell that no one else can match, and has warned Ube several times in advance, so that even Boss Ube has praised it himself.

This time the stakes were very high, and Tuoba Lie immediately asked Alel to lead a team to the Lion Gorge in the Ulanala Pass to investigate the situation. Alel set off with his team immediately, and after a day and a night of running, he had reached his destination.

After a day of heavy snowfall, the entire battlefield had long been unrecognizable, but from the broken military tents and charred barracks, it was clear that there had been a great battle in this place at that time. Aler cautiously sent two people to the east and west sides of the Lion Gorge to investigate the situation, and personally led people into the Lion Gorge.

It's one thing to look at it from afar, it's another thing to look at it up close. Alel never makes mistakes in his scoutings, relying on his prudence and carefulness.

He picked up a piece of beam, which the guy had used to build the tent, but now nearly half of it had been burned black and carbonized.

Alel pointed to the ground and said to a young scout beside him, "Jin Zhu, then take a look here!"

The man called Jin Zhu is a young man in his twenties, clever and quick-witted, but the only drawback is that he is a little timid, he sighed, took out the small shovel on the back of the horse and dug it up, and the two scouts around him also helped, and the three of them cleaned up the surrounding snow in less than a while, revealing the remains of the camp tent below.

The reason why it is said to be the wreckage is that most of it has been consumed by the flames, and there is almost nothing complete except for the beam in Alel's hand.

The four of them dug several places in a row, and the exposed scenes were similar, either the remains of the burned camp tent or broken swords, guns, swords, halberds, and one time they even dug out a torn Ulan tribal military flag, it seems that there is really a big battle here.

Jin Zhu thrust the shovel into the ground, and said to Aler with a pant: "It seems that this is the wreckage of the Ulan tribe, it seems that they want to rush through the lion's mouth of Ulanala like when they broke through from Wujiang City, it is really naïve." ”

Alel didn't answer, he squatted down to carefully observe the traces of the burn on the ground, and then looked up at the flying snow in the sky, and suddenly wondered: "With such a big fire, why didn't we smell anything strange on the way here, something is wrong." ”

"Brother Alel, you're too careful. Jin Zhu seemed to hate the cold and the cold, he looked up at the sky and shivered, and said indifferently: "The northwest wind has been blowing in the past few days, and we have always been out of the upper hand on the way here

I can't smell anything. ”

"Then why not even a single corpse, it's so illogical. ”

The other two scouts agreed with Jinzhu's explanation, but Alel shook his head, took the shovel from Jinzhu's hand, and walked to a wreckage hidden by the wind and snow again and began to dig down.

Sure enough, it was charred wreckage again, but this time it was a warhorse, with several deep wounds on its neck and back, apparently dead before it froze. Beside him lay a lean warrior with a scimitar in his hand. His eyes were round, and his whole body was curled up, frozen into ice lumps.

"Say what, Brother Alel, how about it. Jin Zhu smiled, and the whole person began to panic.

"Don't worry, you two go to the east and west sides of the Lion Gorge to have a look, Jin Zhu, let's go to the inside of the Lion Gorge and walk again. ”

"Brother Aler, are we too careful, although we say that we are careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, but if we continue to go deeper, I am afraid that we will run into Brother Meng's team, and it will be a big deal at that time. "Jin Zhu is a little anxious, this day is cold, how can he stay in his own tent, besides, the situation here is already obvious, no matter what the reason, but the Ulan tribe has been annihilated here by Brother Xiaomeng, they only need to return this information to the boss of Wu, and there is no need to take these risks at all.

"If you don't go, I'll go. "For Jin Zhu's thoughts, Aler knows very well, Jin Zhu is indeed smart, and he is also clever, and he will definitely be a good hand in the scouts in the future, but it is a pity that he is impetuous, otherwise Aler will have the idea of accepting apprentices.

"Yes, a piece, my Jin Zhu will not leave you behind. The two of you will go to the east and west sides of the Lion Gorge to have a look, and Brother Aler and I will go back as soon as we go. ”

After walking a little further, it was still the same scene, and when Alel dug out the third entity from the snow, Alel finally breathed a sigh of relief and said relaxedly: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

Alel returned with Jin Zhu the original way, met with the other two scouts at the entrance of Lion Gorge, and the four of them ran forward along the southwest road without looking back, and disappeared in the heavy snow for a while.

The vast area of the Ulanara Mountains is almost impossible to detour, and the Lion Gorge that crosses it is the only passage through the Ulanara Mountains. At the entrance to Lion Gorge is a long and narrow valley, the further you go in, the wider the road becomes, forming a funnel shape, with mountains on both sides, and the originally lush vegetation has now been covered by a piece of ice and snow, and there is no sign of the existence of any living beings.

A hand suddenly reached out from below, and suddenly lifted the woolen felt on top of his head, revealing the cave below. Shang Zhengyu and Mu Lin climbed up from the cave, both with joy on their faces.

"Brother Shang, I really convinced you, if you hadn't let the belongings we spread out extend a few hundred meters forward, I'm afraid it would have been true

It's not good to show the stuffing. Mullin smiled as he looked in the direction they had left, and his heart was filled with joy.

Shang Zhengyu said with a smile while cleaning up: "At the beginning, when he had an absolute advantage in Wujiang City, Wu Qi did not choose to attack the city at the first time, but spent seven days exploring the situation in Wujiang City, from which I knew that Wu Qi should be an extremely cautious person." What kind of general brings out what kind of soldiers, since he is like this, then his henchmen who promote and reuse should also be cautious people, and there will be no exceptions. ”

"Hey, we've been dealing with Wuqi for so many years, why haven't we thought about this. Mu Lin scratched his head, and then gave Shang Zhengyu a thumbs up: "Princess Nalan Shu once said that you are unparalleled and brave, and now I, Mu Lin, have seen it all." ”

Mu Lin smiled, his index finger and thumb knotted in his mouth, a loud whistle suddenly floated in this valley, after the tea, the sound of horses' hooves came from the depths of the sword valley, it was the sound of war horses, and the two immediately turned over and went straight to Xiao Mengge's camp with a smile and a smile.

A walled gate has been built at the throat of the Lion Gorge, and there is a trench a deep trench in front of the door, surrounded by a high wall. The gates and walls were made of hard, black-veined cedar wood harvested in the surrounding mountains, and were strong enough to withstand the charge of ordinary cavalry phalanxes.

Behind the high wall was an open field, now covered with military tents. The layout is almost the same as that of the formed national army, and even the front and rear patrol posts and the surrounding secret posts have a clear division of labor, which is reasonable. If it weren't for the Mengbu military flag flying above the big camp, they would be regarded as the border army of the Snow Cloud Country.

"Second Master Mu is back!

The Mengbu sentry stationed on the high platform of the walled gate was very sharp-eyed, and saw Mu Lin and Shang Zhengyu who came back from afar, and immediately shouted, and several Mengbu soldiers in charge of the walled gate in the rear suddenly shook the huge stone-grinding mechanism that the two people around them hugged together, and the gate in front of the stockade finally fell under the traction of the hemp rope, and the gate in the rear also slowly opened.

Shang Zhengyu looked at the gate of the village and sighed: "It's freezing this day, and I don't know how much effort you Meng have wasted to build this village here, I think these black-veined cedar trees have just been cut down, I'm afraid it will be less than half a year." ”

"It's three months. Speaking of this, Mu Lin's face suddenly showed an unconcealable pride: "This is still the initial plan of me and my eldest brother, and we also plan to expand this stockade and build it into a small city! With it, even if he Tian Khan leads his troops to attack again in the future, our Xueyun Kingdom will not be afraid at all! Come, first tell them the good news of the two of us, it is estimated that they are all in a hurry, hahaha!"

The two of them talked and laughed and entered the gate of the village and went straight to the central tent.
