In the military camp, with the help of Su Pingan, the Han group finally prepared a pot of rice.
Although it is called rice, it is actually very coarse. It is just a handful of brown rice cooked in a pot. The rice is not rice, and the porridge is not porridge. Just sprinkle a little salt on it and it will be fine.
If conditions are good, some wild vegetables can be added. If there are no wild vegetables, you can only swallow them raw.
However, while cooking, Su Ping'an had become familiar with these soldiers, and taking this opportunity, he finally got a rough idea of the situation.
His current name is 'Tiewazi', he is sixteen years old and an orphan. A few months ago, Daxuan announced the military conscription. Because he had no food, he heard that being a soldier would make him full, so he joined the army and came to the north of Daxuan.
The men of Yue Jian, the general of Xubian, served as soldiers.
The north is the territory of the foreign barbarians. Those foreigners invade the border of Daxuan Kingdom every year, burn, kill and loot. They do all kinds of evil. If they find an opportunity, they will directly invade the border city of Daxuan Kingdom and occupy the city as king. In order to fight against foreign enemies outside the border, Yue
General Arrow led his troops to battle, and fought with the enemy in the wilderness for three months. There were many encounters, large and small. Although there were casualties in each of them, they were just tests, and they were not used yet.
We fought with all our strength.
However, just in the past two days, the general's scouts seemed to have found a hidden enemy camp in the wilderness, so the general planned to take the initiative to attack the barbarians and give the barbarians a hard blow. Now he is discussing a plan to send troops in the camp.
Su Ping'an and the soldiers around him are all a small team in the vanguard camp. They are inconspicuous among the army and are like cannon fodder. Originally, their team had fifty people, but in a few games
After the battle, only about thirty people were left, and the death rate was close to half. This shows how dangerous the battle was and how unsafe this team was.
But as soldiers, they can only obey orders. The direction pointed by the general's blade is the direction in which they advance and charge. If they dare to disobey military orders, they will be beheaded.
Just after finishing the meal, a military order suddenly came down. I saw a captain on horseback coming down with a letter of order in his hand to announce, "The general has an order. The 7,000 men of the forward camp will set off immediately. We must go before dusk."
Rush to Laolang Ridge, and then sneak attack the barbarian camp at night, this battle must be won without any mistakes!"
"yes!"
Among the crowd, a general in his forties then hurriedly stepped forward to receive the order.
But next to the general, Su Pingan suddenly saw a familiar figure again, "Hey, isn't that that guy Feng Shaoyang? He is also in this test?!"
Next to the forward battalion general, Feng Shaoyang was seen wearing a black fine iron armor, looking majestic. He also had a black cloak behind him and a sword on his waist. He was following the general in high spirits.
side of the body.
Just by looking at the armor on his body, he knew that the other party's status in the army was much higher than that of Su Pingan. This immediately made Su Pingan feel a little unbalanced, "Why? Everyone came in for testing. Why did you come in?"
It’s just a general status, but I can only be a soldier, this is not fair!”
But it is clear that his protest has no effect here.
After the forward general received the order, he immediately transferred the order to Feng Shaoyang beside him, and then ordered: "General Pi, immediately issue the order to each team. I want all teams to be ready during tea time.
Then set off, do you understand?!"
Feng Shaoyang immediately stood up straight and responded loudly: "Yes!"
Then the military order was issued, and the entire military camp became lively. Regardless of whether they were cooking or eating, all soldiers must put on their armor as soon as possible and then gather in the center of the camp.
It didn't take long for the army to be organized, and the vanguard of more than 7,000 people was assembled. The overwhelming crowd standing together was breathtaking.
"Set off!"
Following the order from the forward general, the army began to leave the camp in an orderly manner and began to move towards its destination.
During the march, Su Ping'an's small team followed the large army. Because it was a surprise attack, there was no logistics support team this time.
Su Ping'an's team originally had a chief and deputy chief.
The chief is the big man who led Su Ping'an back before. The big man's name is Zhang Bin and he is a veteran. The deputy chief was killed in battle and has not been replaced yet, so it is temporarily vacant.
During the march, Zhang Bin felt that there were a few new recruits who were the same age as Su Ping'an in the team who were a little nervous, so he comforted him in a low voice: "It's okay, it's just a surprise battle, not an encounter. What's there to be afraid of? Wait a minute.
After arriving at the destination, you should follow me closely. At most, it will be a single charge, slashing all the way through and it will be over."
Hearing Zhang Bin's words of relief, several other veterans immediately laughed silently. The recruits seemed to be infected, and their expressions did become much more relaxed at the moment. Only Su Pingan's eyes widened in the back, "
Damn it, why did I panic even more after hearing what he said?"
After a long time, the sky gradually dimmed. After a quick march, the team finally arrived at the designated location, Laolang Ridge, before dark.
Laolangling is a low hilly area with quite complex terrain. Jackals are often found in this area, so it is called Laolangling.
Although the barbarians were good at riding and shooting as guerrillas, they also needed a camp to rest and recharge, so they set up their main camp in Laolang Ridge.
At this time, the army was approaching Laolang Ridge, and the general in front had already sent out all the scouts to find out the situation of the enemy camp.
But these have nothing to do with Su Pingan. As a soldier, especially the youngest soldier, he has no right to speak in the team, so he can only follow Zhang Bin temporarily and lie down quietly in a low ravine.
Just wait for the order to attack.
The waiting process was excruciating. After all, there was going to be a war. This was the first time for Su Ping'an.
Although he had experience fighting demon cultivators in Qingyun County, the feeling of fighting was completely different from fighting with a large army. This made him gradually become a little nervous, and his palms were full of sweat.
Not long after, the sky turned completely dark. Following a round of rapid fire from the crossbowmen in front, the night sky in Laolang Ridge was suddenly illuminated by rockets.
In the barbarian camp not far ahead, a sea of fire suddenly broke out, and screams continued.
"kill!"
An order came from the front. Su Pingan behind him didn't even know what was going on in front. Then he saw Zhang Bin jump out of the ravine and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Brothers, follow me."
