lying down

[179] No trace

"This is it?" Ouyang's heart relaxed, but he was worried for no reason. Someone might have accidentally noticed something about his breathing tube, but the people above him suddenly left collectively.

what's going on?Ouyang had no way of knowing what was going on on the ground, but he forced himself to calm down and stop thinking about it.Without it, for a real special soldier, the psychological quality comes first.

As the chest gradually became stuffy, Ouyang felt the sharp pain in his lungs getting stronger and stronger, and he gradually felt a sense of dizziness in his head.Hold it in for too long!Ouyang tried his best to endure all kinds of negative feelings brought about by the lack of oxygen. He could feel the skin all over his body secreting sweat, and the sound of his heart beating became louder and louder in his ears, almost breaking the eardrums!

"Huh—" Ouyang couldn't bear it anymore, if he endured it for a second longer, he would faint.A large amount of sweat poured out suddenly, and the heart seemed to be reborn and gradually stabilized.Ouyang pressed against the soil on his body and took a deep breath. His whole body felt like an electric shock. He moved his fingers hard, and the long-lost feeling of comfort came from between his fingers.

Ouyang smiled helplessly in his heart, holding his breath is really not a human job.I held back for about 3 minutes just now, and I was already close to my limit.What's more, his whole body was pressed by the thick soil, and he felt like he was about to explode in the mud package.

Now is not the time for Pokai to show up. The first and second waves of scouts came out of the battalion. Who knows if there will be a third or fourth wave.Although it is impossible for Xu Shiji to mobilize so many people because of the bet with him, there is always a contingency. If he draws some stocks and sends troops to continue the search, wouldn't it be miserable if he comes out now?Ouyang chose to wait, and the 58 soldiers and brothers under his command must wait until the soil is not dug up...

Bingzhou camped in the big tent of the Chinese army.

More than a dozen generals lined up on the left and right, all looking up at the defense map of the camp hanging on the screen.

Xu Shiji sat behind the short table, thinking quietly.He didn't turn his head to look at the map, because this map came from his hands, and he had already memorized it in his heart.

The generals standing on both sides looked at the map for a long time, and made eye contact with each other, all confused.

Xu Shiji glanced up at the crowd, sighed softly, and said, "Could it be that there are so many people, so many senior generals in the army, can't think of it? If their special brigade becomes a Turkic army now, I'm afraid that you and I are already in other people's arms." Under the knife!"

This lukewarm remark was thrown out, but the generals were stunned.

Replace the special brigade with a Turkic one?Judging from what happened today, it is really impossible to say that the generals and the coach of the battalion were all taken away.

"Report--" Singing broke the embarrassing atmosphere, I saw a small school trotting in from the tent door, blushing and panting, with a hint of excitement, everyone thought to themselves: Could it be that the special brigade has been found so soon?

The junior officer knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and said, "I would like to report to the governor, our army found a soldier from the special brigade three miles southwest of the camp, but there was only one of them. !"

"One person!? There are 60 people in the special brigade. Why is there only one person? There are no traces of the others!" A lieutenant in the row asked each other anxiously.

The junior officer who reported the letter replied: "General, no other traces have been found. Our army's scouts have ridden five miles away and have not reported yet. Only the scouts and soldiers of the Vanguard Army who were searching in the southwest found the trace of that person. It's just that the man's figure is too fast,

unable to catch up. "

There was a lot of noise in the big tent, like a stone stirring up thousands of waves. The originally dead big tent instantly came alive, discussing various possibilities of the special brigade in whispers, only Yuan Qing, who was fighting with Ouyang Yu before, He bowed his head and said nothing, muttering to himself.

Xu Shiji tapped on the table with one hand, also thinking about the meaning of this news.Why is there only one trace?Why didn't the scouts find any traces of other people even five miles away?Are all the soldiers of the special brigade hiding in the mountains?Although the mountains are continuous, it is winter, not as lush as spring and summer, and it is difficult to search.Besides, people's two legs can't run as fast as a military horse. After surrounding these hills and searching carefully, they will definitely be found.But if you really can't find it, it means too many things.

After thinking about it, he raised his head and saw that everyone was still discussing lively, but only Yuan Qing was silent, as if thinking.He pretended to clear his throat twice with "cough cough", and the big tent instantly became quiet.

"General Yuan, do you have some ideas?" Xu Shiji directly called the names, and now the search for the special brigade is racing against time and there is no room for procrastination.

Yuan Qing clasped his fists out of the queue, and pondered for a while, "Commander, I would like to ask the governor if he knows the cause and effect of this special brigade's sudden disappearance? Now there are many rumors in the camp, and this subordinate is afraid of causing unnecessary suspicion and trouble. .”

Xu Shiji nodded and smiled. He really didn't tell anyone about the bet with Ouyang. He planned to say it when he couldn't find it, but he had to explain it in advance in view of the current situation.

"You don't have to worry, Marshal Ouyang came here last night and wanted to take 60 people under his command out of the camp for a week of special field training. I didn't allow it at the time, and promised them as long as they can sneak out without being discovered by anyone within a day. His request was granted in the camp. Until today, at Chenshi, they have not been seen..." Xu Shiji's face was embarrassing, as the commander of the first army, he had lost the bet, which was quite embarrassing.

Yuan Qing breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that as long as there were no other troubles, it would be fine.He took Xu Shiji's words and said, "I'm thinking, if I were Ouyang Yu, what would I do!"

"Go on!"

"From last night to today when they were discovered, no one in the entire camp had walked out through the front and rear camp gates. Then there are several possibilities: one is to climb over the wall, the other is to dig a tunnel to escape, and the other is to escape." Three... is still in the big camp! You must know that we haven't searched seriously yet!" The more Yuan Qing spoke, the more confident he became, and the tone of the last sentence became a little passionate.

Xu Shiji jumped up from the short back with a "thump", he didn't even care about his old cold legs.His eyes lit up, and he secretly sighed that Yuan Qing was so careful after Ouyang's defeat, and he liked his changes in his heart, and even more liked the ideas he proposed.The more he thought about it, the more likely he felt that the special brigade was still hiding in the camp, and he said anxiously: "General Yuan, lead the five regiments under your command and thousands of people to quickly search the camp! Just find it, and don't use weapons rashly!"

"Your subordinates take orders!" Yuan Qing rushed forward with her fists clasped, pulling the envious eyes of the generals away.

An hour and a half later, Daying was in turmoil, but even the hair of the special brigade hadn't been found.During this period, the scout reported three times, but it was also in vain.

The atmosphere in the Chinese military tent became more and more silent, even a little tense. As long as they heard the sound of footsteps outside the curtain, they would reflexively look around, but to their disappointment, there was no sign of them.

Xu Shiji had already emptied the teapot four times, and he was no longer anxious, but instead had a different emotion.That kind of emotion was inexplicable, just like a kitten's paw scratching his heart, making him a little itchy, a little hopeful, and a little excited.He got up slowly and tidied up his clothes, and said in a deep voice: "You don't have to wait here anymore, the heavy snow is not suitable for practice today, so I will give you a task. Return to the camp and let your Erlang speak freely. Fan, let’s talk about how they will carry out this silent overrun operation if they are replaced, and each battalion is responsible for joining the army to collect all kinds of ideas and save them for later use.”…

Ouyang Yu silently counted the waves of muffled sounds, and they sounded in a certain direction four times, which means that four waves of reconnaissance scouts had rushed over his head, and the most recent one was more than an hour ago.Now he tried his best to determine the exact time, but he was interrupted by the searching soldiers again and again, unable to complete the precise silent count, and could only estimate that about five hours had passed.

At the end of January, the nights in Bingzhou were long and the days were short, and it was almost dark at five o'clock, and the time he and the governor made was less than two hours away.Suffocated!bored to death!Ouyang was a little irritable, and more impatient.Although the place three feet below the ground is not cold, it wraps itself up, unable to move or speak, and can only breathe in and out through the breathing tube of the bush.

He considered every detail of his return from the central army tent last night until now. Although it was a little hasty, it was more sudden, enough to confuse the sight of the scouts in the army and the analysis of the commander-in-chief.

"Why isn't the seventh brother here?" The 59 members of the special brigade were buried deep in the ground, and only the seventh brother, Qin Feng, was watching and monitoring outside. With his skills, he was not worried that someone would chase him.Five hours past the time agreed with Seventh Brother.According to the plan before the operation, Seventh Brother would dig himself out of the ground five hours after he was buried.Then the two changed from two to four, four to eight, and dug all the soldiers of the special brigade out of the soil.

Ouyang thought to himself, could it be that he was discovered and was leading the scouts around?If it was an hour or two later, he was afraid that other soldiers with average physiques would bury themselves in the ground and get sick.

"Puff! -Puff -" There was a sound of a sharp weapon above his head, it was the sound of a sharp weapon digging.

Ouyang was startled, could it be that someone discovered it?

"Puff—Puff—" The excavation sound became more and more urgent, Ouyang Neng gradually felt the pressure from the soil, and the subtle feeling that touched his whole body became stronger and stronger.

Suddenly the sound of digging stopped and was replaced by quick and slight digging.The soil layer on his body is getting thinner and thinner, as long as he exerts more force, he can jump out!

"Eighth brother! Eighth brother!" An anxious voice came, and Ouyang was overjoyed when he heard that it was Qin Feng, the seventh brother, who had returned!He tried hard to loosen his body and break free from the shackles of the soil, but he found that his hands and feet were already sore and numb, and it was difficult to exert strength.

A slap was on his chest, and then changed to a scratch, and quickly cleaned up the clothes around the exposed soil, followed by the neck, then the face, and the head.

Ouyang's body was picked up by Qin Feng and held in his arms. Ouyang spit out the bush duct and the soil in his mouth with a "bah", and took a deep breath.The cold and fresh air enters the whole body along the trachea, and a sense of comfort that is drunk to death spreads throughout the body, and finally comes out!
