The mist was curling, the flames were blazing, and the room was quiet, except for the occasional crackling sound of the burning wood in the stove.
Zhao Wudi and Mo'er were immersed in the world of love, smiling and whispering, with strong affection, completely unaware that someone walked in.
"Ahem" came in with the husband Liu Laohan, who hesitated again and again, but still coughed and did a "bad thing" that caused a lot of trouble.
His cloudy eyes were full of love and comfort, and the skin on his face was originally dry and wrinkled like old bark, but at this time, those ravines were stretching and glowing, gathering into a rich flower of laughter, which bloomed in an instant.
"Grandpa Liu" Mo'er twisted her body, hummed in a nasal voice, and coquettishly flirted at the old army.
"Hehe, girl, it's not that Grandpa Liu wants to beat the mandarin ducks, it's just that the big man wants to summon Zhao Lvshuai, this is a big thing, don't dare to delay."
Liu Laohan said with a smile.
"The handsome man wants to see me" Zhao Wudi was stunned, a little surprised.
After a one-day siege by the Turks, the border army suffered a lot of casualties, and it was time to treat the wounded, repair the city defenses, and discuss the military situation Liu Laohan just passed the word by the way, and it seemed that he didn't know the intentions of the big handsome, and he couldn't help Zhao Wuyi's doubts.
Zhao Wudi walked out of the room and walked towards General Qin's tiger tent, that is, the lobby where the three rooms were connected together.
The sky is deep, no stars and moon appear, visibility is still very poor, the four fields are lonely, only the afterglow of the bonfire by the city wall flashes.
The north wind howled, rolling up the snow on the eaves and branches, and hitting people's faces, cold and cold.
People have joys and sorrows, and the moon is cloudy and sunny, and this matter is difficult to complete.
I hope that people will last a long time, and they will be together for thousands of miles.
Tonight, it was the night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, but the sky of the border city was moonless, the clouds were dense, the sky was heavy, and only the meaning of depression and desolation was pervasive.
Thousands of miles together, Zhao Wudi couldn't help but smile bitterly: Although Yangzhou's family is thousands of miles away, there will be a day when they will meet, but Daming's family is separated by a distance of time and space, can they still see each other Goodbye, my family in Daming will never be seen again The beacon tower that stood in the front yard of the general's line was eight zhang high above the ground, and the beacon fire had been lit, and the raging flames smoked a fire head nearly ten zhang high, trying to spread the danger of Shuofang City to the rear and to the court through the predetermined beacon fire channel.
The number of troops in Shuofang City is limited, and the enemy situation is not clear, so it is still doubtful whether this border city can be held if the Turks continue to increase their troops and are desperate.
They needed rescue and support, but Zhao Wudi looked at the gloomy sky and was very skeptical about the role of the beacon.
When the beacon tower encounters the enemy's situation, it burns smoke during the day, raises fire at night, and passes it down in turn through the preset channel of ten miles and one unit.
On this passage, most of the beacon towers are set up alone in the wilderness, guarded by a small number of sergeants, as long as the Turkic iron cavalry clears in advance, it is difficult for there to be fish that slip through the net.
Unconsciously, he had come to the front of the lobby, only to see Qin Dashan blocking the door like a door god, with copper bells in his eyes, a wide mouth and a beard, a shy chest, and a knife on his waist, quite the style of Yu Chi Jingde, the originator of the door god.
"It's just a few steps, why did you kid come here until now, Dashuai has been urged several times, hurry up and get in," Qin Dashan complained dissatisfiedly.
"Is it Zhao Wudi, come in" This was General Qin's voice.
It sounded loud and full of energy, so it seemed that General Qin's health was indeed good, his foundation was thick, and he was not depressed because of the arrow wound.
Zhao Wushu walked into the lobby and took a look, good guys, the giants in the army were all together, the general Qin Huaiyu, the military Sima Wei Wenchang, the secretary of the army Zhao Zheng, the deputy general Xue Na, and seven or eight fresh faces, all of them were ironclad and burly killers.
Zhao Wushu walked a few steps, saluted forward, and said: "Zhao Wuving, the commander of the Yangzhou Zhichong Mansion Brigade, has seen the generals, military horses, records of the army and generals."
Whether it is in the army, or in the court, the official is like this, when he sees the official, he has to salute, and he must watch the six roads and listen to the eight directions, the brain is bright, and even guess with the blind, if he is careless and misses a certain official who he does not know, hehe, who knows when "people will sit at home, and disaster will come from the sky" Fortunately, it is the Tang Dynasty here, and it is not popular to bow down, except for major occasions and solemn ceremonies, the courtiers bow their hands to see the emperor.
If it was changed to Daming, at this moment, Zhao Wushu would immediately become a kowtow worm.
Qin Huaiyu waved his hand and said, "According to General Xue's observation in the city tower, the Turks did not retreat here, but retreated to camp five miles north of the city.
However, at nightfall, the rumbling of horses' hooves could be heard from the north side of the Turkic camp, and it seemed that a large number of iron horsemen were coming.
It's a pity that the visibility is too poor, I can't see clearly, and I don't know the specific situation of the Turkic reinforcements, which is very unfavorable for the next deployment of our army.
Therefore, Ben Shuai intends to send someone to take advantage of the cover of night to investigate the enemy's situation, and you are originally a scout, and I want you to go with you. ” This time, the Turks came too suddenly, and they violated the convention of not sending troops on snowy days, so they were caught off guard, and the border army scouts sent outside the city were almost wiped out, and it is estimated that Zhao Wuyi was left alone.
And scouts are a special type of troops, carefully selected from the army, and after special training, and then sent out to carry out tasks, survival of the fittest, and the last survivors are qualified scouts.
The current Shuofang City was in dire need of excellent scouts, so Qin Huaiyu thought of Zhao Wuyi, the scout who came back alive from the front of the Turkic Iron Cavalry.
"The general will order," Zhao Wushu replied loudly.
Don't look at Qin Huaiyu's words with a consultative tone, but it doesn't mean that you can refuse, the so-called military order is like a mountain, even if the general wants you to die, you can only leave with a smile.
"It's good to talk about who you need, and what other requirements you have, you can put it forward, and Ben Shuai will solve it for you."
Qin Huaiyu said with a smile.
Zhao Wushu suddenly had an idea, and remembered the matter of fighting against the Japanese in the southeast in his previous life, there was a kind of ninja among the Japanese people, who was extremely good at disguise and stealth techniques, which was quite desirable.
Thinking of this, Zhao Wudi arched his hand and said: "General, you don't need many people on this trip, just find one more person in addition to your subordinates."
Some white cloth is needed to hide in the snow. ” Originally, Zhao Wudi wanted to go alone, but after thinking about it carefully, he still felt that it was inappropriate.
He was only a pawn before, he had no foundation in the army, and it was easy to be suspicious to go on a mission alone, and it was difficult to say clearly if he encountered any accidents.
Before Qin Huaiyu could speak, someone suddenly shouted: "I want to go":
