A hundred miles away from Feiyan Village, military tents were as densely packed as small earthen bags.
The military camp was divided into two parts, with the Xuanyuan Army in the north and the Imperial Guard in the south.
It was almost noon, and the soldiers who had finished the morning training began to prepare for lunch one by one.
Since there was enough food and grass this time, the food arrived was pretty good. In addition to rice and sesame cakes, we could also drink some broth. If we were lucky, we could also eat a few pieces of meat.
There are also some greedy soldiers, and they can occasionally catch a few hares near the camp to satisfy their cravings.
"Did you hear that?"
At this time, a group of Imperial Guards were sitting around a campfire, eating and chatting.
"What did you hear?"
"The poisonous gas in Feiyan Village is said to kill you instantly if you touch someone with something."
"Really? Is there such a thing in the world?"
"Of course it's true, it's so weird."
"Then how are we going to fight this battle? Aren't we just going there to die?"
"Who knows, anyway, the Xuanyuan Army will probably want us to be the vanguard..."
"Damn it, isn't this asking us to die?"
"General Huang is now two heads tall. It is said that because of this matter, he and the coach have quarreled several times in the past few days, and he has become sick."
"Ah? General Huang is sick?"
"It's not..."
"Then what should we do? General Huang is already ill, who will we listen to then?"
"Who knows? It's better to fill your stomach quickly. Even if you die, you won't be a starving ghost..."
Discussions like this were everywhere in the Guards. For a time, the morale of the army was weakened and everyone was in danger.
Li Qi got into Huang Jin's tent with a bowl of freshly cooked broth.
Huang Jin was lying on the couch with a towel on his head.
"Brother, it's me..." Li Qi came over and said.
When Huang Jin heard this, he turned around and took a look. When he saw it was Li Qi, he turned over and got up. He didn't look like a terminally ill person at all.
"Brother, drink it while it's hot, fresh rabbit meat." Li Qi said.
Huang Jin grinned, took the bowl, and took a sip of the broth: "Brother, you still have a way to eat fresh game every day these days."
"What's the point? When I was wandering around, basically wherever I went I had to rely on mountains and rivers to eat and drink." Li Qi said.
Huang Jin finished the meat in the bowl and drank not a drop of the soup.
"Brother, do you think this method is useful?" Huang Jin asked.
"It will definitely work. Don't worry, brother. In this situation, it is impossible for the guy named Liang to ask you to take the lead." Li Qi said.
Huang Jin sighed and said: "Well, when I didn't get here, I was afraid that the other party would take my credit and not let me be the forward. Now that I'm here, I hope I won't take the lead... What do you think this is?"
"Brother, this battlefield is changing rapidly, and we have to adapt accordingly, don't you think?" Li Qi said.
"Brother, what you said makes sense...Do you think that vast ocean is really that powerful?" Huang Jin asked worriedly.
"Brother, you've seen whether it's powerful or not. Do you still have to say it as a brother?"
"That's true, I just don't know how to explain it when I go back this time..."
"Don't worry, big brother, getting sick is beyond your control. Even if the emperor blames you, he won't be punished severely."
"I hope..."
While the two were chatting, a horn sound suddenly sounded outside the tent.
Huang Jin was startled when he heard this voice.
"Brother, what's wrong?" Li Qi asked somewhat puzzled.
"This is..." Huang Jin's pupils changed, "This is an attack!"
"ah?"
Li Qi was dumbfounded for a moment: "Attack? You said Liang Fuhui is going to launch an attack?"
"right!"
Without saying a word, Li Qi turned around and rushed out of the tent. He saw that the Xuanyuan Army not far away had already assembled, and the crowd was so dense that it was impossible to see the end of it.
At this time, a messenger hurried over and Li Qi grabbed him: "What's going on?"
"Reporting to Li Baozhong, Liang Fuhui has been ordered to attack Feiyan Village today! He asked the young man to come over and report to General Huang. The Imperial Guards are resting on the spot and waiting for orders."
"You mean that the Xuanyuan Army will attack the stronghold alone?"
"kindness."
Damn it! Is this Liang Fuhui crazy?
"Okay, I understand. You can go back and I will tell General Huang."
"yes!"
Li Qi returned to the tent again and explained the matter to Huang Jin.
Huang Jin laughed loudly.
"Why is eldest brother so happy?"
"Liang Fuhui couldn't wait to attack, so he just wanted to show me the might of Feiyan Village!" Huang Jin said.
When Li Qi saw that he was making this wishful thinking, he felt extremely anxious for a moment.
Grandma, what should I do now?
Forget it, you can’t rely on this guy anymore, you’d better find a way on your own.
"What the eldest brother said is, how about letting me, the younger brother, serve as a scout for the eldest brother?" Li Qi said with a smile.
"kindness?"
"I'll go to the front line to find out the situation and tell my brother later," Li Qi said.
"Brother!" Huang Jin grabbed Li Qi's hand and said gratefully, "Thank you for your hard work, brother, be careful on the road."
"It's okay, I'll just check from a distance."
"good."
After leaving the military tent, Li Qi rushed back to his own tent. Tang Yun saw him in such a hurry and quickly asked if something had happened.
"The Xuanyuan army will attack the stronghold soon!" Li Qi said.
When Wei Xinshan heard this, she was startled, stood up and ran out. Fortunately, she was caught by Li Qi: "Where are you going?"
"I...I want to go back and tell Master." Wei Xinshan said in a panic.
"No! If you enter the stronghold now, you will definitely be discovered by others. It is too dangerous." Li Qi said.
"But, Brother Li..."
"Listen to me and keep it here. I'll go check on the situation first," Li Qi said.
As he said this, he called Tang Yun and Wei Gang. After getting ready, he called Tian Hangnan over and said he wanted to go to the front line to take a look.
"Master Li, how about I send a few people with you?" Tian Hangnan said.
Li Qi shook his head: "No, too many people will cause trouble. If someone comes to see me later, you should ask him to find General Huang. I have told General Huang."
"Okay." Tian Hangnan nodded.
After making arrangements, Li Qi and the others mounted their fast horses and took a detour to Feiyan Village from another direction.
As he ran all the way, Li Qi became anxious and frantically thinking of countermeasures.
Grandma, what should I do?
He thought back to the war movies he had watched, trying to find some countermeasures, but he found that they were of no use at all.
No matter what, if it really doesn't work, I can only use that trick!
Although many people may die by then, as the saying goes: A fellow Taoist will die rather than a poor Taoist!
Who really couldn't bear to see that cheap master, that girl Wei Xinshan, and Lao Bai...
