Gou is a soldier on the border

Chapter 87 Xingyang
Wang Luo stepped onto the desert, and together with Wang Wei, he looked at the soldiers who were putting away their things, feeling a long-lost sense of tension in his heart.

The brothers who have been together day and night for several months are about to set foot on the battlefield full of blood and fire for the first time, which makes him not nervous.

"Is everything ready?" Wang Wei asked He Lao Liu in a deep voice.

"Second son, everything is ready."

"Go to Xing Lan's side and ask if he is ready, whether he will set off with us or go his own way."

He Laoliu rode his horse and walked to the barracks on the other side of the Second Battalion.

After a while, He Lao Liu ran back.

"They are still preparing, let us go first."

Wang Luo and Wang Wei looked at each other.

"set off!"

500 people and thousands of horses came out of the big camp in mighty strength, and galloped all the way north out of Qinglongmen.

Xingyang County is at the northernmost tip of Taihang Mountain, which is very close to the border between Liang State and Donghan State.

The straight-line distance is about [-] miles, and it will take three to four days to march in a hurry.

He Laoliu took a few well-trained soldiers to act as scouts for this scout force.

Although they are in a peaceful Daliang territory, they still strictly enforced the wartime regulations.

When camping on the first day, under the watchful eye of Wang Luo and Wang Wei, He Laoliu personally punished several soldiers who violated the military regulations.

But it's not a serious violation of the rules. Get some military sticks and send them back to Daliang City, and that's it.

But it is obvious that after this wave of killing chickens and monkeys, the discipline of this group of recruits has risen to a higher level.

Thanks to the great effort to build the roads and military depots during the late emperor's time, the recruits of the Scout Battalion ran at a qualified speed of 200 miles per day when they first officially set off.

It is said that when Du Yi led the army, the cavalry under his command could run at a terrifying speed of 350 miles a day.

Bingxian can always appear in unexpected places at unexpected times.

Three days later, the First Battalion of Longxiang Army Scouts officially arrived in Xingyang County.

The county magistrate led the city officials to meet the army outside the city.

"It's finally here." After seeing Wang Luo, the county magistrate ran up three steps at a time, hugged the horse's legs and began to cry.

Wang Luo hurriedly got off his horse and helped the county magistrate up.

"My lord, please get up quickly."

After a while, Wang Luo finally persuaded the suffering county magistrate.

"Excuse me, sir's name?"

The county magistrate wiped his face with his sleeve.

"My official is Hu De, magistrate of Xingyang County. This county, this county has really suffered from that group of thieves for a long time." Hu De said to Wang Luo and Wang Wei with a bitter face and red eyes.

"Master County Magistrate, don't be in a hurry. We're here to clear up this group of thieves. Another battalion will arrive soon." Wang Wei stepped forward and said softly to Hood.

They came to the camp outside Xingyang County.

At that time, the first emperor set up large camps outside each county seat. Later Zhao Xicheng ascended the throne and revoked most of the garrisons in the counties, but the barracks remained, and it was stipulated that each county should clean up the barracks regularly.

As Xingyang County is relatively close to the border of Donghan, the scale of the camp is relatively large, and can accommodate up to 5000 people.

To Wang Luo's surprise, the situation in the camp was relatively good, and the soldiers could go to sleep directly after unloading their horses.

"I have arranged for the civilian husband to deliver supplies and luggage." Hood followed Wang Luo until he entered the camp.

"It's enough to send food and water for three days." Wang Luo said to Hood.

"In addition, two generals, I have already prepared a small banquet in the city, and I invite the two generals and the generals of the battalion behind to honor you tonight."

"There is no need to go to the banquet. We are here to suppress the bandits, not to have a banquet." Wang Luo waved his hand, wanting to refuse.

But Wang Wei held back Wang Luo.

"We'll go there tonight, and then we'll ask County Magistrate Hu to explain the details of the bandits outside the city."

Hood was overjoyed.

"sure."

After Hood left, Wang Luo looked at Wang Wei suspiciously.

Although Wang Wei is addicted to alcohol, he never delays in business matters. He must have his own reasons for agreeing to Hood's invitation today.

"Wang Luo, take a closer look at this big camp." Wang Wei was not in a hurry to explain to Wang Luo, but walked in the big camp on his own, stopping from time to time to look around.

Wang Luo strangely followed Wang Wei's instructions and wandered around the camp.

Soon, a strange thing on the ground caught Wang Luo's attention.

That thing is very common to Wang Luo, it can even be said that he can see it every day.

It was a piece of dried horse manure.

But it is very unusual to see horse manure in this large camp.

Wang Luo, who was careful, continued to walk.

Soon, he discovered many clues relying on the keen insight honed from his scouting career.

There are two layers of dust on the ground in the barracks.

There was also dry horse grass in the stables.

All signs point to a fact.

"Second brother, there have been people living in this camp."

Wang Wei looked at Wang Luo like the two idiots.

"Nonsense, recruits who have just been in the camp for a month can tell that there have been people living in this camp. The question is, how long ago did people live in, who did they live in, and whether Hood has anything to do with them."

Wang Luo was stunned when he heard this, and felt that he was quite similar to the piece of horse dung he found just now.

Not long after, Xing Lan brought the second battalion to the big camp. As soon as he came in, he saw Wang Wei and Wang Luo camping outside with soldiers from the first battalion.

"What's going on? Why don't you live in the barracks?" Xing Lan stepped forward wondering.

"Brother Xing, take a look at Daying first." Wang Wei said to Xing Lan, pointing behind him.

Xing Lan frowned.

"Old Fang, bring your brothers and follow me."

After about a stick of incense, Xing Lan walked over with Fang Mian and the old scouts brought from Zhendong Army.

"About three months ago, a group of people lived in this big camp. I don't know how long they stayed, but they must have stayed overnight." Xing Lan pointed out the problem sharply.

Wang Wei gave Xing Lan a thumbs up.

"Brother Xing is really sophisticated."

Xing Lan smiled embarrassedly.

"No, it's far worse than you."

Then his face became serious.

"Wang Wei, this matter is not right. Judging from the traces, there are quite a few people who came, at least this number." Xing Lan gestured.

Wang Wei nodded.

"Brother Xing, Wang Luo and I will go to that Hood's banquet tonight, and you and Brother Fang should be prepared in the camp."

"Okay." Xing Lan agreed without hesitation, "You also have to be careful, be careful that there will be no good banquet."

After the allocation, Wang Wei took Wang Luo to the city.

"Second brother, what should we do after we go?"

Wang Wei waved his hand indifferently.

"You should eat, you should drink."

They came to the dilapidated county government office, and the arrester immediately went in to report.

Soon, Hood came out with a warm welcome.

"Two generals, please come in quickly."

Wang Luo and Wang Wei tied the horses outside the gate and followed Hood into the county government office.
