42 in the army

Of course it is impossible not to pass, but it is really difficult to pass.

The intersection is so big, and the width is only a few kilometers. Wu Xiaoqing found a high ground and looked down, and he could almost see everything at a glance—the densely packed military camps filled the entire intersection.In front of these barracks is a square towering castle. The castle is built on the mountain, and a ditch has been dug in front of it. Through the telescope, you can clearly see the huge flag flying above the castle: two circles, but and Xiaoyang Sect is completely opposite, their large circle is in the middle of the screen, but the small circle is placed at the bottom of the screen.

It can be clearly seen that there are two roads slanted from the east to west of the castle, the west one leads to the hinterland of the countries that believe in Dayang religion, and the east one leads to the depths of the mountains, which is what Wu Xiaoqing is going to place.This is what Wu Xiaoqing has heard of, the place where military strategists must contend.Otherwise, the other party would not build a castle here to defend.

Based on the information collected in the city, the search and rescue team roughly simulated the state of the war at this time, and quickly came to a pessimistic conclusion—this siege would take at least a year to be possible. Win or lose.There are two most likely outcomes. First, after more than a year of siege, the Xiaoyang Sect’s logistics could not support them, so they retreated voluntarily. The army ran out of ammunition and food and never surrendered.

But their rescue mission certainly can't wait that long.

Maybe just wait and wait, there is no need to wait, just watch the meteor shower all over the sky.Wu Xiaoqing didn't know what a volcanic eruption that could destroy a civilization looked like, but when he thought about it, it must have been spectacular, higher than watching an American blockbuster in a movie theater.

The search and rescue team proposed three options to Wu Xiaoqing for him to choose.

One is that Wu Xiaoqing abandoned Jingding and walked alone in the mountains, and after going around, he tried to buy a horse.

The second is that after nightfall, Wu Xiaoqing pretended to be a soldier of the Xiaoyang Sect and walked through the camp.

The third is to join the Xiaoyang Sect's army as a mercenary, and then find an opportunity to escape as a deserter.

Wu Xiaoqing chose the second option after carefully listening to the suggestions of the search and rescue team.

Going over the mountain alone, Wu Xiaoqing is really not sure. Who knows what kind of animals will be in the mountains here, what the terrain in the mountains will be like, and besides, whether I can buy horses after I go there——according to what Professor Shen inquired, then There are not many people on this road, and it is all barren mountains and wild mountains.

As for the third article, once caught, according to the regulations of the army, it must be a dead end.Even if he can escape, it is not ruled out that no one will come to chase him.They chased desperately with one person and two horses, and they couldn't run away by then.

The second is much better. Operation at night, the military organization of this era is very loose, and the search and rescue team can simulate human voices very accurately, which adds a lot of confidence to their success.Even if something happened at that time, Wu Xiaoqing threw the horse away and burrowed into the crowd. In this camp of thousands of people, it is estimated that the other party would not be able to find him.

Finally, after summarizing the advantages and disadvantages of various methods, as well as Wu Xiaoqing's own advantages and disadvantages, the search and rescue team helped Wu Xiaoqing sort out the final practical plan: buy a way out of thousands of troops!

According to what the search and rescue team said, Wu Xiaoqing first went to the vicinity of the barracks to find those merchants who were doing business, and then spent one silver coin to buy a flag of the Xiaoyang Sect and the jihad robes worn by the soldiers outside.

Then he changed into his uniform, rode Jingding, and walked back for a while. After seeing the third army going to the front line, Wu Xiaoqing carefully paid attention to their flags: "Well, this one is fine, I can draw it. "On the flag of this army is a shield, which looks similar to a door panel, a square, the simplest.

Wu Xiaoqing took the initiative to step forward, and the search and rescue team imitated the voice of the soldier who questioned them just now, and asked the leader: "Good day, brave soldiers who helped out."

"Good day, Invincible Crusaders!"

The morale of this army seems to be pretty good, and they are quite energetic, especially those free folk.Wu Xiaoqing thought about their positive reasons, because the Jihad Army is in charge of eating enough. For these people, a place where they can eat is considered heaven, and they are going to heaven soon, so everyone is naturally very happy.

But Wu Xiaoqing is afraid that they will be disappointed for a while.

"The general asked me to ask you how much food you brought."

The leading knight glanced at Wu Xiaoqing, and after confirming that Wu Xiaoqing's armor was superior to his own, and that he was probably a celebrity around the general, he replied: "The transfer order said that the barracks will provide food, and we only brought our own rations. It’s almost finished.” In fact, they only brought rations for a few knights and dozens of attendants, and the remaining hundreds of free men brought food with them if they liked, and they were hungry if they didn’t like it, so they came to the barracks to eat more I will make up for it.

The search and rescue team said: "There is not much food in the camp now. The general ordered you to rest in place for two days. During these two days, you should find ways to find food by yourself. After the food from the rear arrives, you can go to the camp again. "

After the leaders of the knights heard about it, they asked with a bitter face, "You can't even find mice around here. Where can I find something to eat?"

Search and rescue team: "Xiaoyang of all things will guide you, I wish you good luck."

Having no time to listen to the complaints and nagging of the freedmen, Wu Xiaoqing patted his ass and walked back.

Going back again, when we arrived near Daying, it was almost dark, but luckily those merchants were still there.The businessman who earned a silver coin with two rags warmly received the repeat customer, and according to the customer's request, he found a blank flag and several colors of paint for him.

Under the guidance of the search and rescue team, Wu Xiaoqing successfully reproduced a military flag with a lot of paint, and painted the same badge on his own shield.

The next thing is simple. After nightfall, Wu Xiaoqing entered the camp in the name of the family's messenger, and reported to the general himself that their army was short of food, and those hungry ghosts were hungry on the road. For reasons, Lai refused to leave.The lord was afraid that the general would blame him and delay this sacred battle, so he sent someone to notify him first, hoping that the general could send someone to deliver some food tomorrow morning.

The general who commanded this battle was a prince from a kingdom who believed in Xiaoyang Sect, and he was not much older than Wu Xiaoqing, so he didn't have any doubts about this reason.And also comforted Wu Xiaoqing a few words, let him go back and tell their lord, don't worry, they have plenty of time.

Wu Xiaoqing was very lucky and was assigned to a separate tent, which saved him a lot of work.

In the middle of the night, Wu Xiaoqing took Jing Ding and walked towards the northeast of the camp. When he was approaching the checkpoint, he pretended to urinate and stayed for a while, then suddenly lowered his head. At this time, the search and rescue team was very cooperative. , shouted to the sentinel in a very exaggerated and pleasantly surprised way: "Look, what are these! Xiao Yang!"

The sentinels took the torches and took a closer look: what else could it be, of course it was two cents each, everyone liked it very much, shiny glass marbles!

More than a dozen sentries on duty quickly searched desperately near the gate. Although it was a dark night, each sentry searched very seriously. They lit all the torches used for sentry observation. He held it in his left hand, and his right hand stuck to the ground almost inch by inch and groped for it.

Wu Xiaoqing threw a new marble on the ground every half minute, and then deliberately let people find it.After a few times, all the soldiers were directed by Wu Xiaoqing to stay away from the camp. Wu Xiaoqing also led the horse quietly and gradually walked out of the camp.

At the last critical moment, Wu Xiaoqing threw more than a dozen glass beads to the left of the gate of Daying, and then shouted: "There! There are so many!"

All the torches flocked to look for it. Taking advantage of this moment, Wu Xiaoqing quietly sneaked into the darkness on the right.

No one noticed that Wu Xiaoqing had quietly got on his horse, or in other words, no one would mind if they noticed. —Who will introduce one less contender for wealth?

The soldiers even broke out small skirmishes with each other over the glass beads.

What is even more beneficial to Wu Xiaoqing is that with the common vision of people at night at this time, without a projected light source, as long as they walk a few tens of meters, it is impossible to see or chase them anymore.

After passing this hurdle, Wu Xiaoqing didn't delay any longer. He hurried on all night, until the next day, when it was time to contact Shen Changwen, he stopped to rest for a while.

Shen Changwen routinely reported the progress of his communication with the lord. He explained to the lord that the disaster was coming, but the lord didn't believe it at all, and almost locked Shen Changwen as a heretic.

Fortunately, Shen Changwen has a lot of money, which is enough to prove Shen Changwen's piety - during the jihad, money can directly atone for any sin.

It sounds like Shen Changwen's experience yesterday was not as easy as his own. According to him, when he was declared a heretic and was going to be put in prison, he was ready to do something.

Fortunately, he had a flexible mind and thought of the atonement in time.And he still has hope, after all, Wu Xiaoqing is still outside, if it is impossible, he can rush back to save him.If he really made a move, he might have been killed indoors on the spot.

Shen Changwen is also preparing to set off today, to the next city.Part of the reason is fear, but also the needs of the task.

It is always necessary to find such a place first, let people believe in the fact that there will be a disaster, otherwise, how will they organize to save people then?
