Chapter 432: Blood Sausage and Pig Trotters and False Report of Military Intelligence(1/2)
There is still a long distance from the Xiqian border to the capital.
These battles are all about victory but no defeat. Time is tight, the tasks are heavy, and there are many dangers.
However, there was no objection to this long-distance attack. General Nanke immediately said: "If old Huyan is still alive, Xiqiao will be difficult to deal with; as soon as he dies, Hu Yanzhao will be busy taking over power. Xiqiao must be in chaos now."
, we will arrive within seven days, and we will be able to catch them off guard. Hey, the capital of Xiqiao is still close to the western front, which is convenient for us to harvest. I remember that old Huyan wanted to move the capital to the east, but the officials opposed it, and finally had to give up."
Zhong Shengguang put a small flag on the sand table: "General Nanke has finished talking about the enemy's disadvantages, let's talk about their advantages."
After discussing the distribution of troops in Xiqian's country and the characteristics of the generals, everyone discussed the selection of attack routes, the order of attacks, and then the defense tasks around Panlong City during the troop deployment...
Wen Daolun also focused on analyzing the character and temperament of Hu Yanzhao, the future king of Xiqiao. After all, this is the real opponent in the battle of Panlong City.
Finally, they even talked about the weather conditions in Xi'an in the next few days.
He Lingchuan shuddered when he heard General Red talking about commanding Xiqiao at the meeting.
History has finally returned to its familiar track!
He had heard before that Panlong City was attacking the small country of Xiqiao in the east, but when it came to why and how it was fought, future generations did not understand. They only knew that this war came without warning.
Now, he is about to observe it from the perspective of someone who has experienced it.
After hearing what he said, everyone in the Broken Blade team was eager to give it a try. Aluo also nodded and said: "The Jinxi Corridor is too dangerous. With the lives and wealth of millions of people, we cannot rely on the mercy of the enemy. We should fight it by ourselves.
It’s the most comfortable to walk.”
He Lingchuan smiled and said: "That's exactly the truth. We are just an advance team. I estimate that before the army sets off, Mr. Zhong will inform the whole city and explain all the benefits and risks clearly."
"The Huyan family established the Xixi Kingdom. They originally had a number of strong generals, and with the help of the Baling Kingdom, they really blocked our way back east. But they were unlucky. In the past ten years, the veteran stars have died one after another.
The newcomers are not strong enough to challenge the leader alone, and the country's strength is gradually weakening. Now that Lao Huyan is dead, it is a God-given opportunity, so why not take it?"
The door panel interjected: "Oh, there's no need to make so many excuses. Master Zhong just needs to say that we go to fight pistachio, and the whole city will definitely cheer and give strong support!"
Everyone laughed.
Hu Min suddenly asked his new teammate: "Lao Yu, tell me your skills?"
"Me?" Lao Yu touched his head, a little shy, "I don't have any other skills. I just can get close to beasts and monsters and communicate with them well."
"Animal Controller?" Liu Tiao said, "It's rare to see one."
In this way of practice, talent is more important than hard work. Otherwise, no matter how much you fake a smile, a strange beast won't want to see you if you don't have a friendly physique.
Lao Yu laughed: "I usually stay on the plateau, but this time I was transferred back by the Red General to carry out the mission. Please give me your advice."
…
A few hours later.
In the western mountainous area of Xiqiao, Longhou Pass.
It was getting late, and rice was being cooked in the Xiqiao military camp, and the aroma wafted up to the top of the door wall.
The soldier responsible for the lookout swallowed his saliva and began to calculate the time for the changing of the guard.
"I heard that there will be wild boar meat today, a big pig of three to four hundred pounds. When will we come down for dinner?"
Although it is early summer, it is still very cold at night in the mountains.
"Those two idiots on the shift must have eaten and drank enough down there before they came up. They ate all the good meat."
"How about we go down directly? Grab two pieces of meat first."
The sentry hesitated: "Isn't this bad? What if we are discovered..."
"It's already the changing of the guard time. It's those two unpunctual ones who were not on time!" Another person said angrily, "If you want to punish them, I will punish them. Oh, I saw blood sausage! Who is so talented and knows how to stuff blood sausage?"
The sound of swallowing suddenly became louder.
The people on the wall couldn't bear it anymore and jumped down to grab the meat.
The meat in the pot has just been cooked. The ribs and loins must have been sent to the commander's tent. The rest depends on who the cook has a better relationship with.
Sure enough, they were unaware of their absence.
Seeing the good meat leaving the pot quickly, the three people waiting in line were secretly anxious.
Finally, it was their turn: "Blood sausage, blood sausage, blood sausage!"
"What kind of blood sausage do you want? I want pig's trotters!"
The waiter in charge of serving the meat was smiling but not smiling. He gave them the blood sausage close to the knot, and the friend who yearned for the pig's trotters was given a piece of backbone.
Eight parts bone and two parts meat.
"Hey, this is too little meat."
The cook glared: "That's good, get out of here and don't block the people behind you!"
These people walked away unhappy, but became happy again when they sat down and ate the meat.
It smells so good. They haven't eaten meat for half a month.
What's more, this is fresh meat, fresh pork slaughtered in the afternoon!
"I heard that the monarch has recently passed away and the nobles in the capital will also be vegetarian for three days."
"Really?" The man gnawing on the big bone was vague, "That's not enough for us to eat comfortably."
"Are you a pig brain? How can the rich and powerful eat as poorly as our big soldiers?" The third person sneered, "I heard that they have small kitchens at home, and they get up in the middle of the night to open a small stove for them. Big pig hooves and blood sausages can be eaten casually.
Feel free to eat too!”
"Okay, okay, eat quickly. Come up as soon as you're done." The first one was eating blood sausage. The portion was really small. He finished the meal in a few mouthfuls and was smacking his lips. "Don't let the change of guard find out that we skipped work.
Then I’ll get five more strikes.”
They finished eating quickly, licked the edge of the bowl, and were about to pick up their guns and go to work when they suddenly heard a "boom" from behind——
Everyone heard it and turned around, confused.
On the beacon tower, flames suddenly burst into flames!
And it is an outrageous four-beacon burst. This is a specification that is only set off when encountering a large-scale attack by the enemy.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" Someone shouted at the top of his lungs, and the whole camp suddenly became chaotic, with whistles and gongs blaring non-stop.
Many soldiers were still holding their rice bowls in their hands. Their first reaction was not to drop the bowls and pick up weapons, but to take the opportunity to take a few more bites before talking.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Such a fragrant wild boar meat, how much would it be a waste not to eat?
Which enemy, capable of killing a thousand people, would only attack when everyone is eating meat?
The guard of Longhou Post abandoned the meat in the bowl and ran out in big strides: "Sentinel, come down and report!"
The sentry didn't sound the alarm, so why was the beacon lighted instead?
The eyes of countless people suddenly focused on the Aiguan city wall.
But it was empty there, not a soul in sight.
The three sentries haven't gone up yet.
"What's going on above!" The guard was surprised, thinking that all three sentries had been killed. What a powerful opponent!
He was also very nervous: "Everyone is ready for battle! Send more people up, quickly!"
Longhou Gang is the first checkpoint of the Xiluo Kingdom in the west, facing the pressure of Panlong City. Because the Xiluo Kingdom is a new country that was separated from the Xiluo Kingdom not long ago, the relationship between Panlongcheng and it is not very good.
.
The name of the Panlong Army is resounding, which puts a lot of pressure on the defenders here, although they have never invaded.
But the guard instantly connected the new mourning of the king with the enemy's invasion.
Does the other party want to take advantage of the situation?
At this time, several people pushed the three sentinels over: "They are not dead, they just sneaked down to eat meat!"
In the firelight illuminated by the beacon tower, these three people shivered.
The guard was furious.
The soldier who climbed up the wall looked at the mountains and fields for a long time before leaning down and shouting: "It's okay. It's a false alarm!"
Is it a false positive?
