After an hour of rapid pursuit, the 2nd Reconnaissance Company had already crossed all the deserters of the Houjin Forward Battalion.

Behind them as they walked through the mountain road, they left a series of squats waiting for the subsequent Kingdom Army to come and surrender the Houjin Xinfu Tartars.

After getting away from the group of prisoners, the second reconnaissance company, under the leadership of the officer, naturally turned a corner and entered a mountain path.

In the sky, falcons soar.

On the mountain path, the soldiers of the reconnaissance company listened to a series of loud eagle cries in the sky from time to time, and then quickly changed the direction of travel according to the eagle's prompts.

In the mountains, as long as there is a slight deviation of a few degrees, it can be said that there is a world of difference.

After making a few turns, the second reconnaissance company was perfectly separated by a mountain peak, missing the camp of about 3,000 enemy troops and the scout cavalry they sent out along the way.

In this way, the second reconnaissance company smoothly continued to intersperse behind enemy lines in a state of rapid marching.

Although occasionally there are small-scale encounters that have to be fought due to the special terrain of the mountainous area, fortunately, the enemy is only a sentinel and a small scale, and in the face of a reconnaissance company with superior firepower, it is generally just a delivery of food.

In this case, it is usually only one round of guns to solve the problem, and at most it is just two more shots.

On the rest of the way, there was no such way as the valley terrain encountered before, and in the event of a large-scale enemy attack, they would drill into the ravine.

With only more than 50 people, the second reconnaissance company was able to easily get rid of the large and bloated Houjin army.

The time soon came to noon, and after a five-hour march, the second reconnaissance company finally approached the meeting point "Tower Hill" this time.

However, the luck of the second reconnaissance company is still so bad, and here there is another problem.

The spearhead was lying on a hillside to observe the enemy's situation, and saw the arrival of a large force of the second reconnaissance company from a distance, and made a gesture of situation.

The company commander immediately ordered, "Stop advancing, stay in place." ”

He then sent Deputy Hu Lian and Staff Officer Li of the company headquarters to check on the situation, while he himself stayed behind to deal with the various unexpected and expected situations that began to manifest after a long and rapid march.

In the distance, Deputy Hu Lian put down the telescope in his hand and his face was not very good-looking, he had already found that in the entire sky now, except for the eagles and falcons of his own company, there were no birds from other units.

If there were friendly forces nearby, it would be impossible to live without the Eagle Falcon, and the current Eagle Falcon is the standard configuration of elite troops.

Moreover, on the opposite hill, there are many shadows that can be seen shaking, looking at the dress, it seems to be a post-gold tartar.

Deputy Hu Lian tilted his head and asked in a slightly hesitant tone, "Is our route correct?" Could it be that you are in the wrong place? The Falcon did not find any friendly units nearby. Moreover, on the hill on the opposite side, there is a battalion of Houjin soldiers and horses stationed to defend. ”

Being stared at by the deputy company, Staff Officer Li's brows wrinkled unconsciously, although he was very confident in his business ability and didn't think he would make a mistake, but he didn't rush to refute, but took out a map, compass and various measuring tools and began to recalculate.

"The route is right, the location is also right, the small hill 2,000 meters in front of us is the meeting place Tashan stipulated by the superiors."

When Deputy Hu Lian heard Staff Officer Li's answer, he turned to look into the other party's eyes, and the eyes of the two sides met, Deputy Hu Lian nodded, believing Staff Officer Li's judgment.

Deputy Hu Lian could see that although the compass and measuring instruments used by Staff Officer Li were the latest equipment that was only newly released this year, he himself had absolute confidence in these equipment and his own way of using them.

Deputy Hu Lian glanced at the sun hanging high in the air, took off his wide-brimmed helmet, touched a handful of sweat, and scolded hatefully, "XXX, you keep an eye on the point, and by the way, take someone to collect information on the other side, and I'll report it." ”

"No problem, I'll take care of the investigation." As soon as Staff Officer Li agreed, he began to set up the artillery mirror of the company headquarters and prepared to investigate the situation on the opposite hill in detail.

Deputy Hu Lian bent down and slowly retreated a few steps, until the hill was above his head, then he straightened up his waist and trotted in the direction where the company commander was.

"Chief, there are enemies defending Tower Hill, and besides, our allies haven't arrived yet."

The company commander's reaction was the same as what Deputy Hu Lian looked like just now: "The friendly army hasn't arrived yet?" The reconnaissance company is far from here, but it is much closer than us, how can it not be there yet? Are we on the wrong track? ”

Deputy Hu Lian immediately denied, "No, it has been recalculated, and the direction we are in is not deviated from the plan." I have already asked Staff Officer Lee to collect intelligence on the enemy. What's next? Is it hitting? Or wait? It's up to you to decide. ”

When the company commander heard that he had recalculated, he naturally believed in the professionalism of the officers under his command, but if he didn't go the wrong way, then where were the friendly troops? What went wrong? Why didn't my own company receive the relevant notification?

Without the cooperation of friendly forces, do you still have to complete the mission? Could there be a problem with the support?

Several officers of the company department who heard the report were a little stunned, and began to talk in a low voice: "It's really a good thing and a lot of grinding, no matter where you go, it's not peaceful." ”

"We are originally an army that represents killing and protecting, and we constantly encounter accidents, which is the normal state of soldiers. Do you want to go back to your easy days? ”

"Of course I don't want to, as a soldier, I don't go to the battlefield to defend my family and defend the country, what's the difference between that and salted fish. Moreover, the various subsidies and benefits during the war are really addictive. ”

"Isn't that over, why are the soldiers complaining so much, anyway, the soldiers are just coming to block the water and come to the earth."

While constantly thinking about what happened to the friendly army in his heart, the company commander heard this, his body was shocked, and he also reacted, in war, any accident can happen, but as long as the orders of the superiors remain unchanged, it is natural to carry out the plan determined before, this is the duty and fate of the soldiers, what is there to hesitate.

The company commander who figured it out gave the order very decisively: "All of them are here, seize the time to rest, settle all the things of eating, drinking, and Lazar, and don't wait for the battle to start later."

Deputy Hu Lian, let's go and take a look at the situation on the other side, Staff Officer Li is probably already waiting for us. ”

"Yes."

Sure enough, there was no deviation in the company commander's understanding of his subordinates, and when the company commander, accompanied by several officers, came to the top of the hill again, Staff Officer Li had already clearly sketched out the specific defense map directly north of the enemy camp in a small notebook.

"Company commander."

"Staff Officer Li, how is the situation of the enemy?"
