Lei Hua didn't say a word, grabbed two waist knives and tied them behind him, and yelled: "Follow me." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" as he spoke, grabbing the rope with both hands and climbing quickly.

The rope was strong enough, and the people below Lei Hua who climbed more than ten meters high also began to climb up, everyone was very anxious, everyone knew very well that if the top of the mountain was occupied by the enemy, they could not give up that vital position.

Tian Dashun was about to grab the rope with the war knife on his back, but Yuan Fang grabbed it, pointed to the cliff on the other side and said, "Captain Tian, General Lei is not here, you have to stay and command, there is still a mountain over there." ”

Tian Dashun was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, since the mountain peak here found the enemy, what about this side? If there are also enemy troops on this side, it is useless for them to hold only one of the peaks, and the enemy troops can still be condescending or use bows and arrows, or just throw some rocks down to inflict great damage on those hiding in the canyon.

Tian Dashun immediately asked Zhou Lei to prepare more ropes, and then asked loudly: "Who else is good at climbing, I need someone to climb the North Mountain." For a long time, no one responded, Captain Tian was in a hurry, and he knew very well that if he couldn't go up and occupy the mountain as soon as possible, it would be really dangerous.

Tian Dashun first ordered someone to inform Xia Liang of the situation here, and then asked loudly again, and promised military merits, but still no one responded. Tian Dashun looked at the south peak, hesitated and said, "No, let the broken mouth come down first, and then climb the north peak again." Yuan Fang was not optimistic about this idea, he was very worried about the physical strength of his broken mouth.

At this moment, Xia Liang and her guards rode their horses, and after a brief understanding of the situation, they waved their hands, and the two thin female soldiers behind her took off their armor, sorted out their clothes, and began to climb in the disbelief of everyone.

Nanfeng's shouts of killing gradually subsided, and everyone looked at the top of the mountain, not knowing what the battle situation was above.

After a long time, the broken mouth poked his head out again and shouted: "Don't worry, there are enough people above, hurry up and get the crowbar." ”

Xia Liang looked up and said to Yuan Fang, "You ask what the situation is above?" ”

Yuan Fang shouted at the top of his voice: "Broken mouth, what's wrong with it?" ”

Broken Mouth replied: "There are more than a dozen grandsons in ambush, they have been cleaned up, and the ropes they left behind have also been cut, and a few of us have been injured, so it is best to bring some medicine up." ”

Yuan Fang glanced at the North Peak, and then said, "Broken Mouth, do you see if there is an ambush on the North Peak?" ”

After a long while, the voice of the broken mouth sounded again: "There is no nearby, and you can't see it clearly if you are far away." ”

Yuan Fang looked at Xia Liang: "General, can you transfer some crossbows over and bring them to Broken Mouth, the two sides are so close, if there is an enemy ambush on the North Peak, you can let Broken Mouth and them use crossbow arrows to support." Xia Liang nodded, and immediately ordered someone to hand over the hand crossbow he was wearing to the logistics soldier and crowbar and other tools to tie together and send it up.

Xia Liang frowned and said, "There are actually people in ambush above, could it be that they have already calculated it?" As he spoke, he looked at Yuan Fang, and praised him in a soft tone: "Thanks to you this time, if the enemy above does something at a critical moment, it can bring us huge losses, and I will appoint Yuan Fang and Yang Xing as team officers as the commander of the vanguard force, and I will not assign duties for the time being." ”

Xia Liang's words, Yuan Fang and Yang Xing became small officers who could command ten people, although there is no specific position now, but the salary and military rank have gone up, as long as they can go back alive this time, the two of them are out-and-out officers, although they are the lowest-level officers, but they are also officers.

Some people may think that since Xia Liang is interested in Yuan Fang, he can take this opportunity to give him more benefits, but Xia Liang can't, the appointment of officers is not so simple, officers at the rank of captain need a general like Chen Xin or even a higher general to be directly appointed, and a general like Xia Liang can only appoint a grassroots officer at the level of captain at most.

Of course, what we are talking about here is appointment, not in exchange for military merit, as long as the military merit is enough, you can exchange for the promotion of military rank and corresponding treatment, and become an officer, but whether you will assume specific positions is still subject to the above arrangement, so to become an officer, you may not be able to lead the army, this is related to the ability of the individual, leading the army, is not so simple.

Yuan Fang didn't expect Xia Liang to say this, he was stunned for a moment, and then waved his hand again and again and said: "It's just a coincidence, I didn't do anything, if you want to say merit, it's still a broken mouth and those brothers above." ”

Seeing that Yuan Fang wanted to refuse, Xia Liangban raised his face and said, "Those who have meritorious service will be rewarded accordingly, you don't need to say it." Yuan Fang was stunned, just now Xia Liang was still kind and pleasant and became cold in a blink of an eye, a woman's heart is really difficult to figure out, Yuan Fang couldn't help but sigh secretly, and didn't refuse.

At this time, the two female soldiers had climbed to half the height of the cliff, and one of them accidentally fell and fell to the ground in the exclamation of everyone, his brain bursting and his flesh blurred.

Xia Liang sat on the horse, his hand holding the reins tightened slightly, and said in a deep voice, "Clean up the body and find a place to bury it." Xia Liang's words were a little indifferent, but what else could he do in such a situation and such an environment? Do you have to hold the corpse and cry bitterly? That's not Xia Liang's character, it's her temperament to be resolute and resolute.

Soon, another female soldier climbed the cliff and threw down the thin rope to pull the thick hemp rope up, and then three ropes were thrown down, and the female soldier who had already been prepared pulled the rope and began to climb, this time, all armed and ready to meet the enemy.

News came from the north peak, no enemy was found, Xia Liang didn't dare to be careless, let the people above continue to be on guard, and then looked at the south peak.

At this time, everyone on the South Peak has already begun to act, bang! Bang! Bang! The sound of heavy objects hitting one after another, the gravel kept falling, and the smoke and dust were rising.

The scouts rushed in, and the cavalry units of the enemy army in the east had already arrived, confronting the female soldiers of Xiping County, and the main force behind them would arrive in half a day at most. This news was expected by a small number of people, but many more were taken aback, they were ordinary soldiers, who did not know that the situation was so serious, and they could not help but panic.

Xia Liang glanced at Tian Dashun, and Tian Dashun hurriedly stopped the rioting crowd and calmed the soldiers' emotions.

Yuan Fang anxiously looked at the boulder on the cliff, and couldn't help but say, "I'll go up and have a look." ”

Yang Xing grabbed Yuan Fang: "Boss, it's useless for you to go up, it's better to stay here." ”

Yuan Fang shook his head and said, "Maybe it can help, don't forget, this idea is what I came up with." ”

Yang Xing had a bitter face and said worriedly: "Boss, I, I don't dare to go up, it's too high." ”

Yuan Fang smiled dumbly: "Damn, it turns out that you have a fear of heights, it's okay, I'll go up alone, you wait for me below." ”
