Chapter 271 The Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Generals on the Bamboo Kites
North of Bailong Snow Mountain.
To the north of the pass is a large snow slope, where the Beiliang Army stationed a small force.
"General Luo, we have chased away the Xia army's scouts."
The subordinates entered the accounts and reported.
Luo Hao put his legs on the table and asked with a smile: "That Daxia young master should know that our people are climbing the snow-capped mountains, right?"
"Those scouts all saw it. We deliberately let them see it in the past few days, and we chased them away today." The subordinate said that the matter was handled properly.
"But the general is puzzled as to why we let our brothers climb the mountain and then quietly come back from the east?"
"And you deliberately let Xia Jun's scouts discover you?"
Luo Hao sneered: "It's all my elder brother's order, just to let the young master of Daxia think what we are going to do to Bailong Snow Mountain, so that he will understand that we have given up on Linzhou."
"In this case, he will take the lead and block the Bailong Snow Mountain pass for us."
The two generals who followed Luo Hao were a little confused:
"Blocking the snow mountain pass?"
"Is there any way Xia Jun can block this pass that is thousands of feet wide?"
"Why does Luo Shuai think that Xia Jun will find a solution?"
Luo Hao looked at the two of them with a smile: "What my brother said must be true. We just have to obey orders. This time we have repeatedly told him that there is no room for error."
"Then what do we do next?"
"wait."
"What are you waiting for?"
Luo Hao looked to the south: "When the fireworks signal goes off in the south, we will withdraw, ten miles to the north."
"Huh?" Several people were stunned and didn't understand at all.
"With such a high distance, the Xia army will definitely use their fireworks signal to notify the people on the mountain... They use this trick skillfully, but they don't know that they also remind our army."
Luo Hao said: "Once fireworks appear in the sky, withdraw your troops immediately and pass on the order."
…
Bailong Snow Mountain.
This snow mountain stretches and is connected to the Lizhou Snow Mountain, so it is isolated for hundreds of miles from north to south.
If you want to cross, it is impossible for the army to cross, and the baggage, food, and soldiers will not be able to cross.
Only people who have adapted to life on the plateau all year round can come and go freely here, and there is also the possibility of death due to lack of "nourishing Qi".
Therefore, if you want to send people up the mountain, you can only use a small group of elites. Even Fang Jue cannot do too many things that go against the rules of nature in this era.
In the firearms camp, the ten people with the best physiques climbed halfway up the mountain together with several martial arts masters assigned from the guard camp.
The top of the mountain is too high and cannot be crossed at all.
The group's destination was the snow slope with the deepest snow directly above the Bailong Snow Mountain pass.
The slope here is almost straight. If you accidentally roll down, you will really die.
"The general is really the most genius in the world. He actually thought of using snow and quicksand to block the pass and completely isolate Linzhou from the north."
The few people squatting and warming themselves by the fire had arrived at their destination, the snowy area, yesterday and were waiting here.
"Fortunately, it's just us. It's too cold here. Without the inner martial arts to protect the body, we really can't bear it." Those few who were hiding in the guard camp were actually masters from Emperor Zun Pavilion. They all sighed.
These days, Dianyi arranged to come in to protect Fang Jue personally, but he never expected to receive such a task.
"The general ordered us to bring hundreds of kilograms of explosives to this snowy slope. Could these things really cause large-scale snow and quicksand?" One person still found it very mysterious.
But the people from the firearms camp were sure: "It must be possible. In the high snow-capped mountains, loud noises may cause snow and quicksand. When the gunpowder goes off, how powerful is it?"
"But when the snow and quicksand begins, how will we run?"
A master from the Guards Battalion patted a few Bamboo Kites on the side.
"Don't worry, everyone, we from the Guards Camp can take all the brothers from the Firearms Camp down the mountain one by one."
"How to carry it?" The people in the firearms camp have never practiced this.
"Fly." The personal guard from Emperor Zun Pavilion smiled meaningfully.
Everyone in the firearms camp looked at each other: "Fly?"
Why don't you fly over and let me see?
One person was righteous and awe-inspiring: "Stop fooling us. Brothers are mentally prepared when they come up. Isn't it just a matter of death? As long as we can block the Northern Liang army, it's worth dying for a few of us."
"That's right, I have written a suicide note and asked General Wei to deliver it to my wife and children in the capital for me." A firearms battalion soldier said calmly.
The people in the Firearms Battalion are all former members of the Forbidden Army, and their ideological awareness and individual soldier qualities are among the best in the world.
From the moment they received the mission, they felt that they were doomed.
"So you all think so..." The people in the guard camp suddenly stood in awe.
Knowing that he would die, he was still willing to climb the mountain, which shows his loyalty to the emperor and his patriotism.
"But, how do we calculate our military achievements? If our family members receive pensions, will they be able to live a stable life for the rest of their lives?" One person asked worriedly.
As soon as these words came out, the soldiers in the firearms battalion frowned.
"Ha ha……"
"Don't worry about this. You won't die. We will take you down. Don't worry, we are good at flying..."
"That's right, when we were in Emperor Zun Pavilion, Shao Ge taught us a lot of things, but you will inevitably be shocked when you play for the first time... It will be much better after you become more familiar with it."
"call out--"
At this time, there was an explosion outside the tent, making everyone look serious.
A sentry entered the camp and said: "Brothers, these are red fireworks. The general ordered us to take action."
"Okay, your brothers from the firearms camp will place the explosives, and we will set up the bamboo kites. Remember that the fuses must be long enough. After placing them, connect the fuses together and come back. After they all fly away, the last group will light the fire."
Here, the leader said.
"What if there is a misfire?" Someone worried, "I'd better stay and die to make sure it works."
"This is not possible. The Young Pavilion Master has told you that you are all valuable, and it will hurt if any one of you dies... If the explosion fails, you will beat those craftsmen when you get back."
"Haha..." Everyone laughed, and the atmosphere relaxed a lot.
So, a group of people went out to the tent.
The people from the firearms camp set out to place the explosives at the locations that had been identified long ago.
The ten people from the guard camp were left behind to assemble and erect the bamboo kites one by one.
"You don't want the tents and supplies?" one person reminded.
"No, we still need to bring a flying umbrella, just in case. These things are too heavy. If the bamboo kite can't bear it, we will be dead."
"What a pity. It's worth a lot of money."
"Then do you want money or life?"
"It's better to die..."
"Ha ha."
…
"General, what are we doing staring at the snow-capped mountain pass? Will there be any miracles?"
Several people's necks were stiff, but they didn't see anything unusual.
However, there were people with sharp eyes. Wei Feng stared at the sky with a telescope and exclaimed: "There is someone flying in the sky? How is that possible!!"
His hands shook and he rubbed his eyes, then made sure he was not blind.
Fang Jue also picked up the telescope, glanced at Ningwu's mirror, wiped it, and raised it to look high into the sky.
"These are the brothers who sent messages and signal flares along the way. They came down first after completing their tasks." Fang Jue said.
From the bottom of the mountain to the mountainside, it is not just a signal bomb that can fly so high that people on the mountain can see it.
There needs to be someone along the way who can see the signal flare below and then send a signal to the people above.
There are also more than a dozen people delivering signals, just in case someone makes a mistake along the way and people one or two heights above can also see it.
Pass the signal in saturation mode, just in case.
"ah?"
"Really one of ours?"
Wei Feng was shocked: "How did they fly?"
"It's not flying, it's gliding. With the equipment I gave them, they can glide from high to low, and they won't die even if they fly high... unless they are unlucky and are blown over by the wind."
"Gliding?" Everyone was a little unfamiliar with this word.
"Isn't this still flying?" Fan Ji's eyes widened, he glanced at Fang Jue quietly, and choked on his saliva.
Oh my God, is the Young Master really not a god?
"Send a large number of people to look for these brothers who have glided down. Don't let anyone hang on a tree or fall into the river. Bring them back."
"Let another group of people prepare. When the brothers who have completed their tasks on the mountain come back, we will go to pick them up."
Fang Jue stared at the mountainside. It was too far away and he couldn't see clearly if anyone was flying down.
"Drive!" Dong Gui led a cavalry force from the Hundred House Battalion and went out to chase the soldiers who were flying down.
After another two moments, Cheng Jie's hand holding the telescope shook:
"General, I saw people. There were black spots flying over from the mountainside. Oh my god..."
"Aren't these heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals?" someone said with emotion.
"Yes, look where they are flying to, and send someone to pick them up when the time comes." Fan Ji also became excited, envious of those brothers. This chapter has been completed!
