In the cold wind, two soldiers on duty were on duty at the sentry post one mile away from the Second Army Logistics Base.
The weather in the north has always been below freezing in the cold winter. In addition, there has been a heavy snowfall recently. The number of logistics teams in and out of the Second Army's frontline base has been reduced by 30%. However, due to the temporary recruitment of a large number of Longcheng Shipping Caravan ships by the fleet, it was urgent to A large amount of supplies were forcefully transported before the Hengduan River froze, so now the logistics support for the entire northern theater is very complete.
It was getting late, and the soldiers at the sentry post rubbed their stiff palms. One of them muttered in a low voice, it would be great if there was a bottle of hot soju now.
"Hey! Lao Li, look over there!" Another soldier ignored the mutterings of his companions and continued to stare at the road. In the dark sky, he saw a convoy driving through the snow in the distance.
Are there still teams coming and going at this time?
Lao Li was excited when his companion called him. He touched his lower back with his right hand and took out a small cylinder inside. This thing can send out a very obvious signal in the dark night, and its principle is exactly that of fireworks.
In the Longcheng army, signal transmitters like this are manufactured and distributed in large quantities. From military mobilization to reconnaissance signals, every model and information has been very strictly planned. Like the one held in Lao Li's hand, it is specially used for Red flare for enemy attack.
Just in case, even within the territory of Dragon City, there are still many open and hidden sentries set up in important defense areas such as logistics, and the soldiers on the sentries are all veterans drawn from elite troops.
Lao Li is such a veteran. The army he served in before was the Dragon City army that was the predecessor of the Dragon City First Army. He and his colleagues established great military exploits under Mok City. Later, due to military changes, he He was transferred out to join the newly formed Third Army. Following the commander Zhang Liao, he went on an expedition to the destroyed Alton Empire and witnessed the last battle of a huge ancient empire. Immediately afterwards, the original Second Army was reorganized into the First Cavalry Division. , the Third Army became the Second Army of the Dragon City Royal Army. The orc army was fought to the death in the extreme northern fortress, establishing the Second Army's status as the ace army in one fell swoop. However, it was during that shocking battle that Lao Li became One-armed.
Originally, according to the military management regulations of Longcheng, disabled soldiers like Lao Li could receive a very large pension and retire with honor. However, after witnessing the sacrifice of his comrades one after another, he was unwilling to take off his uniform and voluntarily He stayed in the army. But he had to say goodbye to the front-line troops and came to the logistics department. Although it was far away from the front line and it was even possible that he would never encounter combat in his life, Lao Li still did not leave far away.
There are many soldiers like Lao Li. They have experienced large and small battles along with the rise of Dragon City, and have experienced the test of blood and fire. When they cannot fight with their comrades in the first place, When they were on the line, many people chose to stay in the military. Some became lecturers in military academies, some became iron-blooded instructors in the recruit camp who let the recruits taste the nightmare of hell, and many others, He was transferred to the logistics department and continued to "fight" with his colleagues.
Lao Li squinted his eyes and looked at the movement in the distance. Their base was north of the Hengduan River, about thirty miles away from the frontline base. Judging from the location, it was impossible for the enemy to attack on a large scale unless the elite troops on the frontline were defeated. Will the army be defeated? Lao Li didn't even think about it. This was impossible! What's more, the military machine that had been idle for half a year in Dragon City is now in operation again. In Lao Li's knowledge, no one can compete with his troops!
The orcs can't do it! The huge Alton Empire can't do it! The eldest prince and his men? They're just a bunch of soldiers!
This is the self-confidence that belongs to Lao Li, and this is also the self-confidence that belongs to the Longcheng soldiers! This confidence is accompanied by the glorious achievements of the Longcheng soldiers with their blood!
From the freezing cold land in the far north to the vast central plain in the south, where the battle flags of the Dragon City army are flying is where victory is written!
The convoy in the distance was moving very slowly, and the thick snow seriously hindered the transport speed of the convoy. With the last ray of sunset, Lao Li finally saw clearly that the numbered flag in front of the convoy was his own.
At this time, the commander of the convoy, wearing the windbreaker unique to Dragon City officers, walked step by step in the snow. His young face was a little childish, but the light radiating from his eyes showed his extraordinaryness.
"Zian, how far is it?" the young officer asked the adjutant behind him as he walked.
The adjutant was equally young. It was obvious that the adjutant and his superior got along very well, otherwise most people would not call him directly.
"There are still more than thirty miles to go. At our speed, we will probably have to wait until tomorrow to arrive." The adjutant named Zian was also helpless about marching in the snow. Originally, it was normal when the team set off, but Halfway through the march, they encountered heavy snow and were stuck in the rear for several days. The snow finally stopped, but the road problems became even worse. If it weren't for the very important things in the team, they wouldn't have been traveling day and night.
"Sir! There is someone in front!" At this moment, a soldier ran back from the front of the team and reported to the young officer.
The young officer smiled slightly and turned to look at the adjutant behind him, "It looks like it's really thirty miles away."
The adjutant also smiled and said: "Yes, it is probably the outpost of the base."
The soldier who reported the report was a little strange. Before he said the identity of the other party, the two officers knew what was going on.
In fact, the senior military generals in Longcheng all know that the outermost hidden outposts of the logistics troops are generally placed around thirty miles away, so that if any emergencies occur, the logistics base can have sufficient time to respond.
If a sentry is found here, it is natural to know the approximate location of the base ahead. Many veterans are familiar with situations like this. Of course, the soldiers who come to report are this year's recruits, so it is natural that they don't know.
The team continued to move forward, but this time there was one more person, and this person was Lao Li who was secretly sent out. During the negotiation, Lao Li saw the special order produced by the young officer, which was an order directly under the military headquarters. Lao Li did not dare to slack off. , as a veteran, he knew that this team might be of great importance, so he followed the team to the logistics base. Not only did he give directions along the way, but he also acted as a liaison, getting in touch with various secret and bright posts along the way.
With the help of Lao Li, the team gradually speeded up. Especially when approaching the base, the road conditions suddenly improved, allowing the team to speed up further.
In the early morning, they finally arrived at the front-line logistics base. The liaison officer, who had been waiting here for a long time, finally breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw the team arriving.
"You are finally here. The commander has been waiting for almost five days." The liaison officer found the team and complained directly to the young officer. Lao Li on the side happened to hear this sentence and couldn't help but tremble in his heart. Who is the commander? Naturally, it was Zhang Liao, the commander of the Second Army and the current commander of the Northern Theater Command!
The commander-in-chief actually valued this team so much. What exactly was being transported in it? Lao Li was a little curious, but he didn't ask, because these military secrets were of great importance, and he didn't want to be asked to drink tea by the pickets.
The team that had just arrived at the base had not even had time to rest. They drove out of the base under the heavy protection of the first battalion of soldiers and headed for the front line. Lao Li watched them leave. In addition to being curious, he was more concerned about the front line. With their blessings, the war is about to begin, and as soldiers they will once again fight in the blood and fire. Although this blessing is insignificant, it is the sincerity of a veteran.
The mysterious team finally arrived at the frontline station on the fourth day. Zhang Liao, who received the news, went out to the camp in person. Li Lan, who had just arrived here, was somehow pulled over by Zhang Liao. He stared at this small transport team. , Li Lan was very surprised, what was it that even Zhang Liao, the commander of the war zone, couldn't hold back the joy in his heart and put a smile on his face.
"Report to the commander! The special transport team commanded Mo Qing to complete the mission! Please accept it!" After the young officer saw Zhang Liao, he immediately gave a serious military salute. After dozens of days of escorting, he finally arrived at the destination, but his mission has not yet been completed. Finish.
"Okay! You are finally here, okay, okay!" Zhang Liao laughed and walked up to Mo Qing and patted his shoulder with his hand. Everyone could see that the commander was in a very good mood today.
Li Lan on the other hand was even more curious. He knew this Mo Qing, and even had some interactions with him. The two of them had both graduated from the Longcheng Royal Military Academy at the same time, but after graduation, Li Lan and his friend Li Feng served in the Second Army. , and Mo Qing did not know where he was transferred. It has been more than a year in the blink of an eye, and now I see Mo Qing, a fellow student who has been promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel, but this military uniform is somewhat different from the ordinary establishment. Li Lan They belong to the Army, and their general uniforms are all dark green, while Mo Qing in front of him is wearing gray. Although the styles are the same, the colors that distinguish the various arms are obvious. For example, the navy is white and the army is green. , the red of the guards, the black of the intelligence department, these different colors are easy to remember, but Li Lan swore that he had never seen gray clothes, so he was very curious about Mo Qing's organization.
Zhang Liao and Mo Qing seemed to know each other, and some clues could be seen from their words and deeds, which made Li Lan even more surprised. But it was not the right time to ask. Anyway, as the commander of the newly formed Third Army, the main force in the theater, he You are also qualified to have access to some extremely secrets.
The arrival of the transport team seemed to let Zhang Liao put down the last worry in his heart. No matter what was inside, at least from Zhang Liao's point of view, victory in this huge battle was already guaranteed. At least in the northern theater, Hengduan Henan was successfully pacified. There are no obstacles in the shore area.
