Chapter 994: Scouts

Yellow sand, full of yellow sand.

On a sand dune, the wind swept against the layers of sand, sending bursts of fine sand into the air, and when the sand fell, it reintegrated into the desert, and no one could tell the difference between a grain of sand.

The wind was getting stronger and stronger, and the dunes seemed to be moving slowly, and at the top of the dunes, a black man had been half-buried, and he was crawling there with his clairvoyance and looking into the distance, the dunes were undulating like the waves of the sea.

Soon after, he rolled down from the dunes, and when he reached the bottom of the dunes, he rolled over and climbed on horseback, and galloped away with the wind.

About half an hour later, the Daning scout, who looked dark and had chapped lips, stopped at the edge of a small oasis, waded a few steps forward in the sand, and rushed onto the grass as if he had just broken free from the demon's palms, and his whole body was already a little prostration.

Several soldiers ran over to set him up, and he reached out to take the kettle, even though he was so thirsty, even though he almost had no strength, but he still carefully opened the kettle, and did not spill a drop of water.

He took a small sip to moisten his lips, and then poured a few mouthfuls into it, as if he had returned blood, and even his eyes became brighter than before.

"General."

When the scout saw Shen Leng coming, he immediately shouted.

This scout's name is Luo Jie, a recruit from the Western Xinjiang Arsenal, it has been seven or eight days since Shen Leng came out of the North of Vietnam, these young people have faded from their youth, and it seems that everyone has become a lot more mature, the changes brought by the environment are not only the skin is darker, but also the maturity of the mentality, since the seven or eight days since they left the customs, they may throw their lives in this yellow sand every day, so they have to force themselves to quickly change from a recruit to a veteran.

The things they learned in the Western Xinjiang Arsenal were not only killing techniques that could save lives, but each of them was an old captain who had experienced many life-and-death killings, and their experience was enough for these young people to perceive the dangers in this world in advance.

After drinking a few sips of water, Luo Jian eased up a lot, and after breathing a sigh of relief, he said: "About fifty miles ahead, you can find the camp of the Sabbatarians, there is a large oasis over there, there is a water source, the camp is very large, but there are too many places where the sand dunes block the view, and it is impossible to estimate the approximate strength, but the subordinates guess that this should be one of the important camps of the Sabbath people to cut off the return of my army." ”

Shen Leng nodded and handed Luo Shot a steamed bun: "Eat something first." ”

Luo Jie took it and found that the steamed buns were actually hot, and looked around, but there was no fire, once a pillar of smoke rose in this place, it would soon be discovered by the enemy.

Fortunately, the sand is hot enough, and the taste can be slightly improved after the dry and hard steamed buns are hot.

"Fifty miles."

Shen Leng opened the cowhide map, in fact, it was a basically blank map, and the places that had been drawn on it were also drawn by him, he took a pen and drew a location on the cowhide map, and four or five places have been marked on the map of such locations, and if they are connected into a line, it is like a bend and a half moon.

"Probably here."

Shen Leng's finger clicked on a location on the map, and from the location of the enemy camp that had been detected so far, it was inferred that the location of the trapped Ning army could almost be marked, but it still needed closer reconnaissance.

But further on, there is a large camp of the enemy, the army of the rest and the people of the Western Regions is huge, and the speed of the war horses in the desert cannot be fully exerted, and even if you are not careful, you will get lost, and more than 3,000 light horsemen want to rush over basically nothing

Probably, and even if you rush in, it doesn't make much sense.

"Tell the team to rest here, and the scouts are always staring at the Sabbath camp fifty miles away, Chen Ran, the team is handed over to you, you have to be responsible."

Shen Leng glanced at Chen Ran, and Chen Ran was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Leave it to me? ”

"I'll leave it to you."

Shen Leng took the map into his arms: "I'm going to take the scout team through the gap in the camp of the Sabbath and the Western Regions, you take the team, once the enemy gets close to the camp, you take the team back, wait for me in the place where we last rested, if we come back and find that you are not here, I will go directly to the last place." ”

Chen Ran shook his head: "No......"

Shen Leng frowned: "You say it again." ”

Chen Ran took a deep breath: "Obey!" ”

Shen Leng opened his arms: "Take off my armor, change to a set of leather armor, stir the dry food into a paste with water, choose three teams of ten people to follow me, and everyone's cloak is mixed with sand and batter." ”

The soldiers helped Shen Leng unload the iron armor, Shen Leng changed the leather armor and hung up the crossbow and black line knife, each brought two pots of water, and put on a cloak stained with sand: "Chen Ran, you take people to follow us, and when we get to the camp about fifteen miles away from the camp of the resting people, we will walk, you bring the horse back." ”

Chen Ran: "There are too few teams of three tens. ”

"Too much, too big a goal."

Shen Leng sorted out the equipment all over his body: "There is no time to delay, our besieged team has no food supplies, they may have been starving for a while, it should be better to cross this desert, fortunately, they have already conquered many places in Houque Country before, to feed the war, the food hope that has been snatched has not been used up, if I get in touch with the trapped team, I will rush back immediately, remember, I handed over the lives of more than 3,000 brothers to you, Ran Zi, you are not only my personal team, you are a general." ”

Chen Ran stood solemnly: "Subordinates obey orders!" ”

Shen Leng turned around and got on the horse: "Follow me!" ”

More than 100 people rushed out with Shen Leng, and when they arrived at a place about fifteen miles away from the camp of the Sabbath people, Luo Jie pointed to the distance: "That side is the camp of the Sabbatarians, and you can't see it through too many sand dunes, but further on, there are scouts of the Sabbaths everywhere, and it is very difficult for them to detect where they are hiding, but if our horse team appears, they can find it immediately." ”

"Stop!"

Shen Leng raised his hand: "Dismount!" ”

The soldiers of the three ten-person teams all jumped down, and Shen Leng asked them to check the equipment on their bodies again, and then looked at Chen Ran: "Bring the horse back, wait for us to come back." ”

Chen Ran said hoarsely: "Leng Zi ......"

"It's fine."

Shen Leng patted him on the shoulder: "You forgot what you said about me when you were in Fish Scale Town?" In this world, there are not many people who are harder than me. ”

He checked the cloak, Daning's cloak was red, very eye-catching, he didn't think there was anything wrong with it in the past, but after entering the desert this time, Shen Leng suddenly found that the importance of the battle uniform to the soldiers is definitely not just as simple as whether it is thick or not, if they have a set of khaki clothes at this time, it will be easier to hide from the scouts of the people of the Western Regions.

The team of more than thirty people left the horse team, and after walking forward for about four or five miles, Shen Leng waved his hand to signal the team to stop, he climbed a sand dune, pulled his cloak up to cover the clairvoyance, and did not let the sun shine on the clairvoyant, looked carefully ahead for a while, and then noticed that there was a sand dune about a mile away with a bright light flashing.

Shen Leng slid down and beckoned: "There is a dark whistle of the resting man about a mile away in front of the left, knock it out in the past, such a dark whistle will be installed at a fixed distance, knock out one of them, and we will have time to pass through." ”

Luo said: "Give me a five-person team, I'll go." ”

Shen Leng shook his head: "The team can't be separated, there are only more than thirty people, and once they are separated, they can't be saved." ”

He pointed into the distance: "Be careful when climbing over the dunes." ”

Walking a mile in the desert and walking a mile on the plains are two different concepts, and walking forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow stepping on the sand can expend three times as much physical strength and time as walking on flat ground.

Shen Leng and they approached cautiously, if they wanted to get rid of this secret whistle, they had to go around farther, a straight line distance of about a mile, in order not to be discovered, the possible zigzag leaned against the sand dunes to cover up and walked seven or eight miles.

Fortunately, the soldiers trained by Shen Leng are all physically perverted.

Quietly touch the sand dunes from behind, it is not so difficult to kill people, kill the scouts of the Sabbath people on the sand dunes, Shen Leng just lay down in place and looked at the Sabbath camp, the distance is only about five miles, there is a large oasis over there, you can see the soldiers of the Sabbath Country coming and going, there is a small lake in the middle of the camp, nature is so magical, there is such a small lake in the desert is like a pearl embedded there.

"You stay here."

Shen Leng dragged the corpse and slid down, and quickly took off the Daning leather armor on his body and replaced it with the leather armor of the resting people: "You don't need to come with me, just watch here, I'll go around the outside of the rest camp, if I pass, you find a place to hide, and then pass after dark." ”

"Huh?"

They were all stunned.

"General!"

"You can't go to the General."

"I'll go, General."

Shen sneered: "You just look at me, take advantage of this to have a good rest, after I find out the situation, let's go over after dark." ”

Shen Leng changed his clothes and climbed up the sand dunes to the other side, and the war horse of the Sabbath was on the other side of the dune, so he rode a horse towards the camp of the Sabbath people.

His men climbed up the sand dunes and looked at him, all of them were a little overwhelmed, they were all people who had undergone rigorous scout training, but Shen Leng's behavior could not be learned anywhere.

But a military order is a military order, Shen Leng told them to wait, and they could only wait.

Riding a horse, Shen Leng climbed over one sand dune after another, and brazenly arrived not far from the camp of the Sabbatarians, but he did not enter the camp, and waved his hand to the people on the watchtower of the camp, and the people above also waved to him, he pulled the face towel up, and went to the other side along the perimeter of the camp, but no one stopped him.

Running along the camp towards the distance, there was also a patrol on the way, Shen Leng learned the military salute of the Sabbatarians, in a sense, he and Galokliu are a kind of people, in order to defeat the enemy, first familiarize themselves with the enemy, Shen Leng can learn the language of the Rest people earlier than Galocillus to learn Ning.

Even Shen Leng himself felt a little surprised, as if someone had made him invisible, wearing the military uniform of the Sabbatarians and riding the war horses of the Sabbatarians, Shen Leng passed by the camp of the Sabbatarians, and then ran out in the northwest direction.

Before dark, Shen Leng calculated that he had probably come out for dozens of miles, stopped and rested for a while, climbed the sand dune, raised his clairvoyance to look into the distance, and then saw a broken earth city about four or five miles away, and on the earth city, there was an incomplete Da Ning Lie red battle flag fluttering.
