"Don't worry, boss." He may not have much experience in asking Li Ping to take care of Li Xinchen's daily life, but when it comes to doing this, he can do it easily.
The river rippled slowly in the darkness, and the slight sound of arms paddling across the water might not have attracted much attention at ordinary times, but at this time it was like thunder, constantly exploding in everyone's heart.
At this time, if there was a sound or light in the darkness on the opposite side, everyone would probably be scared to death.
Li Xingchen held his breath and counted silently in his heart. At this time, he could only use this method to force himself to relax.
After all, this is the first time that Li Xingchen has led so many soldiers, and it is also the first time that he has personally visited the front line as an army commander. Although this is just a simple crossing of the river without any prelude, although Li Xingchen's men are fully prepared.
That is six hundred people.
But when the burden of victory for 600 lives and 3,000 people fell on Li Xinchen's shoulders, after all, there was no way to compare with when Li Xinchen was alone.
For the first time in his past life, Li Xingchen felt a heavier responsibility, a responsibility that was three times greater than the lives of the two hundred people in the village at that time.
When he drew the map on the map before, those armies, be it a thousand or ten thousand, were just cold numbers after all. But only now, when he himself became part of the numbers on the map,
Only then can he deeply feel the sense of responsibility that is different from talking on paper.
Sure enough, only when you are on the battlefield and your whole body is immersed in the tension and silence, can you realize how ridiculous it is to talk about war on paper.
The calm before the storm is breathtaking.
At the next moment, a deer village with several horns sticking out of the water appeared in front of us. Under the careful push and guidance of the soldiers in the water, small boats slowly circled the deer village, and the outlines of more sharp horns could be vaguely seen.
It also made Xiao Shilian, Li Xingchen and others take a breath of cold air.
The tight defenses on the river were clearly beyond their expectations. They really couldn't imagine what would have happened if the ship had collided with Luzhai if they hadn't moved forward so cautiously. They couldn't even imagine the consequences of a ship crashing into Luzhai.
If the division's fleet is trapped in the siege of Luzhai, what kind of tragedy will happen.
"Jiangtan, I can see the river beach." The fog on the shore is thinner than on the river. In the boundless darkness, one or two lights can be vaguely seen dotted in the fog, and the dark river beach looks like
Wolong lies not far away, and is obviously different from the deer villages that appear and disappear.
In a trance, it seems as if the people are not on this river, but on the Wangchuan River. The lights that are getting closer and closer do not belong to the camps along the river, but to the ships that are to guide them to and from the ghost world and the human world.
Li Ping had already stood on the river beach, and turned to wave to Li Xingchen and the others. Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian on the boat next to him looked at each other, and they both drew their weapons at the same time: "Walk the beach!"
As these two low shouts rang out in the darkness, all the soldiers on the ship clenched their weapons at the same time and jumped into the water. The water in this place was not deep, just up to the thighs, and most of the people on the river beach
It's all stones, not too steep, so you can move forward calmly.
The sound of splashing water came and went in the darkness, and soon they became one. However, the lights in the distance seemed not to notice the abnormality and were still sleeping in the darkness.
Soon the outline of the fence on the river beach could be seen, and the soldiers of the brigade, Chen, rushed to the beach. Their eyes fell on Li Xingchen and Xiao Shilian through the darkness and fog, waiting for the two of them to give orders.
Down.
"Shizhong, what do you think is waiting for us behind this wall?" Xiao Shilian said with a smile.
Li Xingchen slowly raised his Ziyun gun: "No matter what, we have no way out now, and I don't plan to go back again."
"Who said we have to go back?" Xiao Shilian waved his hand, "Do it!"
Upon hearing this order, Chen Zhishen and several other generals took the lead, setting hooks and short ladders on the fence one by one, and a famous soldier climbed over the fence which was not considered high with great skill.
After all, they are all elites selected from these three thousand troops, and their skills are naturally good.
"Who?!" A cry of surprise rang out in the darkness, and several figures that flickered in the fog were running towards this side.
After all, it was such a large-scale operation of five to six hundred people. If it didn't attract any attention, it can only be said that there was not a single person in the Xiliang camp.
"Kill!" Chen Zhishen, who climbed over the fence first, roared and rushed forward. The saber in his hand thrust forward and directly pierced the chest of the man in front.
Apparently, the Xiliang soldiers who came over only heard a slight noise here, and thought it was some wild cats and dogs running around. They couldn't see clearly in the hazy fog, and they didn't expect that they were actually enemies.
Before he could exclaim, Chen Zhishen had already pressed against him. The hand holding the handle of the knife loosened and reached directly to the man's chin. The other hand also took off his helmet and pulled his hair.
A sharp twist.
There was only a "click" sound, and it was obvious that the fragile bones in the neck were violently broken, and the man rolled his eyes and died immediately, without even having time to utter his final exclamation.
At the same time, the other soldiers who climbed over the fence also moved their hands, and they came up with long spears and short knives. They quickly stabbed these patrolling Xiliang soldiers into sieves. However, the following few people still fought hard when they were dying.
Yell as hard as you can.
In an instant, everything inside and outside the fence fell silent, and the soldiers with blood on their bodies looked at each other in shock.
And a moment later, footsteps and shouts suddenly sounded in the camp in the distance. It was vaguely unclear how many people rushed out of the camp and ran towards this side. However, it is certain that during this war, they did maintain their strength.
Enough vigilance.
"Quickly, pull down the fence!" Li Xingchen, who climbed over the fence at this time, said loudly, pulled out the short knife from his waist, and quickly cut off the ropes binding the wooden stakes.
Chen Zhishen and the others also came to their senses. At this time, it seemed that they had no other choice but to let the people behind them in as quickly as possible and then grit their teeth and rush forward.
Even in heavy fog, with the speed at which they were rowing carefully past those deer villages, they would most likely become a living target.
Chen Zhishen stepped forward, hugged a wooden stake with one hand, and pulled the wooden stake out of the ground. The other soldiers also hurriedly followed his example. Although their strength was not as strong as Chen Zhishen, they could still handle a wooden stake by themselves.
quickly.
The arrows roared towards them, but due to the darkness and fog, most of them landed in front of and behind the fence on one side. No one was hurt, but it was certain that the enemy was getting closer.
"Crossbowman!" Xiao Shilian took the lead and rushed over before the gap was completely opened.
