Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 1095

Small people and small soldiers have small dreams.

Family, country and the world are not something they should consider. They only know to obey orders, and then get rewarded for their meritorious deeds.

They may die in battle, or they may be successful, who knows, for them, the battlefield is not only a life-and-death crisis, but also a gamble on life's fortune.

If you don't want to live a miserable life for generations, then go all out.

"If we are rewarded for our meritorious service and get fifty acres of land, what a beautiful day it would be." A scout squinted his eyes, looking up at the night sky full of longing.

Another scout also began to imagine endlessly: "At least every meal must be dry, and there is meat. The whole family has four or five members. If you eat less than a catty of meat a day, you can relieve your hatred!"

The paozes nodded in agreement.

"If you have fifty acres of land, that's true. You deserve to eat meat every day."

Dui Zheng sneered: "Hurry up and return to your soul, how much meritorious service you have achieved on the battlefield can be rewarded with fifty acres of land, have you ever thought about it?"

"At least one of the enemy's battalion generals must be personally beheaded to be qualified. Do you have the ability to weigh it yourself? If one of the ten thousand horses charged, most of our brothers would be gone. If you can’t make it, return his mother’s fifty acres of land, daydreaming.”

The scouts were immediately discouraged and sighed dejectedly.

The team is really sober in the world, so people are not allowed to dream?What if luck comes true?
Midnight, dark moon, no wind.

For some reason, the cicadas and frogs all around suddenly disappeared, and the surroundings were completely silent.

After the scouts talked and laughed, the captain was stunned, so he raised his arms suddenly, and the scouts fell silent.

The team is listening intently, and then looking around the distance.

It's no different at this moment, the distance is still dark, and there is no change.

But Duizheng's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his expression became more and more disturbed. He couldn't explain the reason, but there was always a premonition of impending disaster.

There is no evidence, no signs, it can only be said that this is the intuition of a veteran who has survived many battles.

After a long time, the team was looking to the northeast, and his expression became more serious.

"Brothers, the ghost gate and fifty acres of land are in front of you, and what you earn depends on your own fate." Dui Zheng laughed suddenly.

"Team leader, is there any movement?" A scout stood up straight.

The team was thinking for a moment, and said: "Ten people should be separated, don't get together, half go to the north, half go to the northeast, if there is any abnormality, light the arrow to warn, if there is no abnormality, gather here in two hours, do you hear me clearly? ?”

After the military order was issued, the scouts responded with a loud roar.

Then the ten people mounted their horses and went in different directions neatly.

The horseshoes had been wrapped in thick cloth, which was standard equipment for scouts. The horseshoes still made a slight sound when they moved, but they did their best to hide their tracks.

The team is leading five scouts straight to the northeast.

It was this direction that he had been feeling uneasy all along.

The five scouts are far apart from each other, which is also the rule of the scouts. Once the front robe is attacked, the scouts behind are absolutely not allowed to rescue or fight, and must turn around and run away.

Their mission is to transmit information back to the camp in time, rather than relying on a few people to fight the enemy to the death, that is meaningless.

After running for five miles, the six climbed up a small hillside. The team was pulling the reins suddenly, and the horse stopped.

On the opposite side of the hillside is a low-lying flat land. There are many figures on the flat land, densely packed with nearly [-] soldiers and horses, staying quietly in place.

The pupils in Dui Zheng's eyes suddenly shrank.

The veteran's intuition did not lie to him. Thirty miles away from the Tang army's camp, a force of 2 troops came silently.

Where did this army come from, what is their purpose, the team is not clear.

All he knew was that he must send this news back to the Tang army camp at all costs.

Because General Qibi Heli was leading an army to Hunyi City, only [-] soldiers and horses were left in the Tang Army camp at this time, and what's more terrible was that Yinggong Li Ji was also in the camp.

If the battalion is attacked by this army, Duke Ying will have three ups and two downs, and the team will die to atone for their sins.

So the team turned the horse's head immediately, planning to return the same way.

However, how could a 2-strong army not send out scouts?
As soon as the team turned around, a sharp arrow was shot from behind.

The sharp arrow shot the squadron's back impartially, and the squadron leaned forward, lying on the horse's back, and galloped towards the original road after hitting the horse.

"You bastard, I'm going to explain to you here today!" The team is gritting his teeth and cursing inwardly.

On the back of the galloping horse, the captain was pulling out loud arrows from his bosom, and was about to ignite them, when arrows rained down from behind him.

Quezheng's back was suddenly filled with arrows, like a dying hedgehog, running with all his might.

In the distance ahead, the scouts under his command who came to meet him were running towards him.

The team was in a hurry and shouted sharply: "Hurry up and report to the camp, there is an enemy attack!"

The scout reined in his horse in grief and indignation, hesitating and refusing to leave.

The team opened his mouth, a stream of blood gushed out, but he cursed: "Get lost! Go report!"

A sharp arrow silently shot Quizheng in the neck, and Quizheng suddenly lost his breath and rolled off his horse.

The scout cried and turned around, hissing up to the sky and roaring, while taking out the arrow from his bosom, igniting it and throwing it into the sky.

The sounding arrow dragged a dazzling firework in the dark night sky, soared straight into the sky, and finally exploded in the sky.

There was the sound of rumbling horseshoes behind him, and the enemy's pursuers surrounded him.

The scouts rode their horses and galloped wildly, shouting vigorously: "Enemy attack! There is enemy attack!"

There were still scouts in front to respond, and they turned around and ran away when they heard the words.

One by one, the scouts, like beacons on the Great Wall, passed on the warning message.

One after another, the arrows exploded in the air. This was a life-and-death relay, and all the price was paid just to send back the warning.

The scouts are still being pursued by the enemy, and the distance is getting closer.

The scout rode on the horse, smiling miserably, extremely relieved.

When the arrow is released, his mission has been completed, and his own life and death are no longer important.

Facing the biting night wind, he was still calculating silently, whether the news he desperately sent out this time was considered a meritorious service, and was it worth fifty acres of land?

How great it would be to survive, with [-] acres of land, the whole family can eat meat...

A flying spear lashed out from behind, a last resort by the impatient enemy.

The scout's back was immediately shot by the flying spear, and he flew up horizontally. The flying spear pierced through his body, and fell heavily to the ground like a specimen nailed.

Blood gushed out of his mouth, and the scout looked blankly at the dark sky, his trembling lips murmured.

"Fifty acres..."

Small people and small soldiers have small dreams.

…………

In the Tang army camp, the silence in the middle of the night was broken by the sound of horseshoes.

A scarred scout galloped into the camp, roaring as he galloped.

"There is an enemy attack thirty miles away, there is an enemy attack!"

Li Qinzai was woken up by Buqu, and before he could get angry, he heard the shocking news.

"The [-] enemy troops that appeared out of nowhere gathered thirty li away from the northeast and are rushing towards the camp."
