Chapter 232: Touched

The entire sky of the Hufeiling Mountain Range is full of birds of prey flying.

Before yesterday, there were still wild birds flying from time to time, taking off from the mountains and forests, fighting with the air warriors of the kingdom, fighting for territory and even mates with their best efforts.

Today, though, things are different.

At noon, hundreds of falcons clutching packages flew from the direction of the Yalu River, and the falcon team flew through the mountains in the shade of the sky.

They were airlifted troops from the postal service to deliver ammunition to Tower Hill after internal coordination in the Kingdom.

This mode of transportation is convenient, but it is also an endless trouble, not only the transportation volume is low, but also delays the transmission of non-governmental information, and endangers the development of domestic commerce.

However, there is no way to do this, in the current kingdom, in matters related to human life and the fate of the country, military priority can only be given.

As for the sequelae, leave it to be solved later.

Such a large flock of birds of prey is simply crushing along the way.

From time to time, a few falcons mischievously swept past the panicked flocks of birds around them, intimidating the fleeing birds before whistling sharply.

Under the galloping and intimidation of these Chinese military's brigades of birds of prey, all kinds of birds and birds that originally lived in the interior of the Hufeiling Mountain Range moved to outside the flight routes of the falcons in a terrible cry as if they were insulting, and they no longer dared to resist as before.

As a result, the entire sky of the war zone was under the control of the kingdom's air guards.

Moreover, such a large group of falcons, which were originally lone birds, actually acted together, which also frightened the Houjin army, which had been bombed many times.

In the place where the Eagle Falcon convoy of the brigade flew, it even triggered three small-scale routs of the Houjin army.

This is just a surprise, there are almost no ground attack ability of the falcon, and it is impossible to stay too long, their weight-bearing capacity is too poor, they can only seize the time all the way to the destination, as far as possible in a short time, transport a few more times, in order to slightly alleviate the consumption of arms on the front line.

And in the sky outside the Eagle Convoy, there is also a large-scale air force, the little ones of [Kunpeng], who have to take off every few hours.

These bear children, who have maintained a long and efficient attendance rate since yesterday, have matured a little after two days of actual combat baptism.

Every few hours, these giant albatross are fired back and forth from the coastline, and their two claws always maintain the appearance of each holding a 25-pound aerial bomb.

Under the instructions of the ground guidance troops, they continued to bombard the enemy troops who had been circled in advance by the [Kunpeng] commanders, and tried to stop the retreat of the Houjin army towards Tashan as much as possible.

There are also a few falcons belonging to the different battalions below, constantly hovering in their respective jurisdictions, and from time to time let out a few high-pitched eagle cries, providing their respective keepers with information on what they can see.

Although the reconnaissance in the sky has an excellent effect on finding a large enemy army, it is a little powerless when searching the forest area.

Just like the current Tower Hill and the surrounding area, the trees blocking the shooting boundary in the tower hill defense area have been cleared by them.

However, in the high mountain areas on both sides of Tower Hill, those dense forest areas, the little defenders of Tower Hill seemed powerless, and they could not and did not have the ability to clear such a large area of woodland.

As a result, after receiving the news that the Houjin army might make a detour from both sides, the commanders of the Tashan defense area could not use the falcons to monitor the area.

Zhao Qingyu deducted it on paper for a long time before he transferred a dissatisfied reconnaissance platoon from the 1601 battalion, a total of two squads. After subtracting the previous casualties, there are only 12 people.

Such a small number of people, even if each person is equipped with a military dog, it is useless.

In desperation, Chief of Staff Qian could only blush and find the field ambulance station in embarrassment.

He lowered his head and said to the wounded soldiers, "Comrades-in-arms, I'm really sorry, there is an urgent mission now, we are short of manpower, and we can't transfer manpower from the front line, so we can only come to you for help with a cheeky face."

Excuse me, are there any volunteers who come out to help? ”

In the Kingdom Army, it has always been people-oriented, and the wounded have fulfilled their obligations, and Chief of Staff Qian should not have come to them at this time.

Even when Chief of Staff Qian used to do the most undignified work in the "fighting" in the southern part of the Ming Dynasty, he knew that the wounded did not go to work, and the "fighting" had to be responsible for the rules of recuperation.

What's more, he is now participating in the regular army of Huaxia Kingdom.

However, he really had no choice, and the Houjin army on the front line came with another wave of reinforcements, and, without a stable foothold, launched a fierce attack on his own position.

With the emergence of the new Jurchen Governor team, the Goryeo who were originally frightened in the Houjin army could only be forced by the knife and rushed back together with the new enemy.

From the very beginning of the battle, the battle situation was in a state of anxiety, and the defenders of Tower Hill, who carried out elastic defense tactics, had already tug-of-war back and forth on the first trench four times, and even the communication trenches inside the second trench had already been stained with the blood of the enemy.

The front line is really no longer able to draw manpower.

However, the task of searching the mountains and forests on both wings is something that cannot be left undone. If it was really only a small army that bypassed the high mountain and sought reinforcement from the Houjin army lord outside the mountain, it would not be able to stop it.

However, if, because of their own carelessness, they did not send a search force, so that the Houjin army saw the opportunity and sent large troops from both sides to outflank Tashan, then the matter would be a big deal.

Just defending the narrow valley and plain area in front of it has already made it very difficult for the Huaxia army in the Tashan defense area.

Once the enemy expands the area of the theater and gives full play to the superiority in numbers, then Tower Hill will inevitably be lost.

Chief of Staff Qian was ready to be ridiculed.

However, the expected cynicism did not appear,

After waiting for a long time, no one spoke, and Lao Qian raised his head suspiciously, his eyes full of incredulity.

In front of him, more than 60 wounded people had already lined up, waiting there neatly, holding their heads high.

Among them, there are also some soldiers who have injured their lower limbs and are inconvenient to move, and with the support of their comrades-in-arms, they stand there tremblingly.

"Report to Comrade Chief of Staff, a total of 68 wounded soldiers in the ambulance station, all of whom can be replaced, have all arrived, please give an order."

Looking at the resolute and natural eyes of the wounded soldiers, Chief of Staff Qian felt that his nose was a little sour.

Lao Qian, who graduated from the martial arts hall not long ago, was touched fiercely in his heart, and many things that he didn't understand before seemed to understand a little now.

"Here, it's completely different from Da Ming!"

"Thanks, thanks... Thank. His lips squirmed a few times, but he couldn't speak.

However, Chief of Staff Qian also knew that if he couldn't say it, he would simply not say it, and the soldiers didn't need their own "thank you".

He simply and neatly selected a dozen wounded who had convenient legs and feet, and the wounded area would not affect the march too much, and mixed them into two reconnaissance squads, so that they could be divided into several groups to search for a width of several kilometers at the same time.

As for the remaining wounded, they were ordered to continue their recuperation, and until the next order came, they could only stay in the makeshift ward, and they were not allowed to move.

The selected ones were happily packed up with the help of their comrades-in-arms with smiles on their faces.

Those who are not selected will not complain, but silently, with envious eyes, to help their comrades pack their bags.
