"Wulang Mountain is a stone mountain. There is not even a small ditch on the mountain. The military rations we carry with us are only enough for five days."
Axia begged: "I know it will be difficult to rescue the lady, but please sir, we must do it as soon as possible, otherwise even if the bandits don't attack the mountain, the brothers won't be able to hold on for long."
"There's no water on the mountain?"
The expressions of everyone in the room changed.
"Is Qing Mulan a pig-headed person? He obviously saw a rocky mountain and led people to run up the mountain?"
Jin Feng was so angry that he kicked over the chair next to him.
If only the heavy crossbows and catapults were taken away, he wouldn't be too worried, because there are ready-made heavy crossbows with a longer range in the warehouse on the back mountain.
But everyone knows that if there is no water, people will be dead in three or four days at most.
There are thousands of bandits. With the few people in the village, it is definitely not enough. Manpower must be mobilized.
But where can I transfer people in three or four days?
Even if you can find someone, it will take time to travel.
Jin Feng usually never gets angry, but this time he was really angry.
"Sir, please calm down. It was obviously Mr. Feng who planned this carefully, and Miss Mu Lan fell into the trap."
Zhang Liang advised: "It is important to find a way to save Miss Mu Lan now."
"She's just going to get in when people lay it out?"
Jin Feng patted the table and said: "They have made it clear that they want to force her up the mountain. At this time, we should concentrate our troops and use heavy crossbows to break out. How can we really go up the mountain?"
However, Jin Feng also understood that it was useless to get angry now. He took two deep breaths and looked at Axia: "Did you bring a water bag when you marched?"
"I brought it," A-Xia nodded: "When I left, there was probably still a bowl of water in the water bag. Just save some and drink it. It should be enough for two or three days."
Hearing what A Xia said, Jin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.
In this case, there is still a little more time.
"Sir, Zhao Laoshan is here."
A personal guard came in to report.
Jin Feng nodded and walked out of the medical room.
In the yard, Zhao Laoshan stood with a man in the yard.
Jin Feng centralized all the people from other villages who had defected to Xihewan and formed the second group of Xihewan. Zhao Laoshan was the leader of the second group.
As more and more people defected, the size of Xihewan Group 2 became larger and larger, and its members were very complex. However, Zhao Laoshan still managed Group 2 in an orderly manner, and Jin Feng was very satisfied with him.
"Sir, Daqiang's hometown in our village is near Wulang Mountain."
Zhao Laoshan pointed at the man and said, "But Daqiang used to be a hunter. He often went to Wulang Mountain and is very familiar with the surrounding area."
"Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Zhao." Jin Feng nodded to Zhao Laoshan, then looked at the hunter: "Then please tell me about the situation in Wulang Mountain, Brother Qiangzi."
"The situation in Wulang Mountain? What's the situation?" The hunter scratched his head nervously, not knowing what to say.
"Uh... there is a bandit suppression team in our village surrounded by Wulang Mountain. I want to lead people to rescue them."
Jin Feng said: "So I want to know how big Wulang Mountain is, how high it is, and whether there are any trails or anything like that."
"Did the village send people to Wulang Mountain to suppress the bandits?"
When the man heard this, his eyes suddenly turned red.
He was forced to live by the bandits and he took his family to Xihewan after hearing people said there was a way to survive.
You can imagine how excited I was when I heard that the Xihewan Bandit Suppression Team had gone to Wulang Mountain.
"Speak quickly, sir. You are still waiting."
Zhao Laoshan gave Daqiang a gentle push.
"Oh," Daqiang came back to his senses and said quickly: "Wulang Mountain is a stone mountain. There are big round stones on the mountain. There are very few grass and trees. It is not too big, nor is it very high. No
At 100 feet, there are quite a few roads that can go up and down the mountain, at least seven or eight, but there are only three that are easy to walk, and the rest are all small roads."
"Is there water on the mountain?" Jin Feng asked.
"No, Wulang Mountain is very steep and cannot hold water at all."
Daqiang shook his head, hesitated, and asked: "Sir, you are going to Wulang Mountain to suppress bandits. Can you take me with you? I can lead the way, sir."
Jin Feng and Zhang Liang looked at each other, then nodded slowly.
"Team Leader Zhao, thank you for your hard work." Zhang Liang smiled and looked at Zhao Laoshan: "You have a lot to do, so go ahead and get busy."
Zhao Laoshan knew that Zhang Liang was trying to drive him away, so he smiled and said: "Okay, I'll go and get busy first. If you need something, sir, please send someone to tell me."
After Zhao Laoshan left, Zhang Liang looked at the hunter and asked, "Brother Daqiang, have you ever been a soldier?"
"I did," Daqiang said regretfully, "but I broke my leg before and took part in the bodyguard assessment. I failed to pass the cross-country test with heavy weights and exceeded the time limit of half a stick of incense."
"It doesn't matter. If you perform well this time, I can recruit you as an exception." Zhang Liang said.
"Captain, don't worry, I will perform well." Daqiang's eyes suddenly lit up and he patted his chest and promised.
Nowadays, who doesn’t know that escorts are well paid. In addition to wages, there are also various rewards. Sometimes the bonus from a mission is enough to feed the family for more than half a year.
Failing to pass the escort examination has always been a regret in Daqiang's heart.
"Did you take the official road from your hometown to Xihewan?" Zhang Liang asked.
"Yes, it's the official road." Daqiang nodded: "Coming from Wulang Mountain, it's the official road."
"You have been a soldier, you should be able to tell where is suitable for an ambush, right?" Zhang Liang asked again.
Jin Feng's eyes narrowed and he said nothing, but he understood what Zhang Liang meant.
"Of course, I have worked as a scout before, and I just got the job of exploring roads. Then of course I will go back to Longshan!" the hunter replied without hesitation.
"Come on, let's go to the back mountain. You can tell us about the situation on the road."
Zhang Liang put his arm around the hunter's shoulders and walked back to the mountain together.
When they arrived at the back mountain camp, Zhang Liang sent someone to find Dazhuang, and they all got into the meeting hall in the back mountain together.
Half an hour later, a few people came out of the meeting hall.
Da Zhuang ran to the school field and shouted to the assembled veterans and female soldiers: "One company, one platoon, two platoons, female soldiers, one company, one platoon, two squads, three squads, the second emergency march, ready to go."
Nowadays, the number of escorts is increasing. In order to facilitate management, Jin Feng regroups the veterans according to the method of the army in his previous life, in the form of regiment, battalion, company, platoon and squad.
At present, the Zhenyuan Escort Bureau only has one regiment. The leader is undoubtedly Jin Feng, and the deputy leader is Zhang Liang.
There are four battalions in total, including the first battalion responsible for guarding important places such as Xihewan, Iron Can Mountain, and Double Hump. The battalion commander is concurrently served by Zhang Liang, and Da Zhuang is the deputy battalion commander.
The commanders of the second and third battalions responsible for escorting the escorts were Tieniu, Zhang Liang's big black comrade, and Tie Hammer, Jin Feng's former bodyguard captain.
The fourth battalion is responsible for training new recruits in Maomao Mountain and Hutou Mountain, and the battalion commander is Zheng Fang.
The number of people in each camp varies from place to place.
For example, the current number of the first battalion is less than 300, while the number of the fourth battalion, including new recruits, exceeds 400.
The female soldiers have also been reorganized in this way, except that there is currently only one battalion of female soldiers, and the battalion commander is naturally Qing Mulan.
The main task of female soldiers is still to assist male soldiers. Generally, every time they go on a mission, four veterans will be paired with one female soldier.
In addition to the combat troops, there is also a military medical team. Every time a mission goes out, a female military doctor is assigned to each platoon.
