Chapter 503: Hard Bones

The sunset receded, and the night sky was dotted with stars. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Even the red clouds that could not go away were temporarily "withdrawn" under the cover of the night.

The Mulan Fortress, shrouded in the middle of the night, is like a sleeping beast, crawling at the entrance of the canyon, deep and quiet. It is only at this time that this giant meat grinder will release a trace of warmth.

One after another, torches were lit on the city walls, and along the city walls, a long dragon of flames was formed.

The soldiers in charge of the night watch, dressed in iron armor and armed with spears, braved the night wind and walked past the city wall in a procession. For a long night, the soldiers gathered together and talked about some romantic affairs.

The war that had just ended during the day naturally became the focus of discussion among the soldiers. The unheard-of artillery, the bravery of the evil general, and the ferocity of the mountain barbarian warriors, each of them is enough to make people interested.

"That iron lump is really powerful, it can fire such a big cannonball, it really blasts through the city wall, I was guarding the city wall at the time, and my heart was shocked."

"Ergouzi, you're too useless!"

"Haha~~~"

The soldiers around him burst into laughter.

It's not easy to have a person to ridicule for a long night.

The young soldier, nicknamed "Ergouzi", immediately turned red, his cheeks bulged out with anger, and he retorted unconvincedly: "Sanpizi, don't give me energy here." Can you, why don't you go and try it? The earth-shattering sound can deafen people's ears, and my ears are still ringing. ”

"Try it, try it, who's afraid of whom!" Sanpizi is not very old, but he is a muddy person, full of guts, patting his chest and saying: "Tomorrow I will ask to be transferred there to garrison." ”

"Good!"

The surrounding soldiers applauded.

When Sanpizi heard this, he became more and more proud, as if he had really won the battle.

"Have you heard?"

Just then, another warrior approached, trying to attract everyone's attention.

"What?"

"The mountain barbarian warriors who defended the mouth of the cave during the day were all promoted to the rank of one rank by the general, and at night they were greeted with meat and good food. That guy, don't mention how energetic. ”

"Hey, their lives are so good, such a good thing, why can't it be our turn?" The young warriors never knew what they were afraid of, and only thought about meritorious service.

"Come on, you guys!" A veteran stepped forward, "People are all buying it with their lives." You don't know how terrible the great battle was during the day. Just a big man like a mountain barbarian warrior, and wearing a precious iron bump like a step armor, we were all scared when we saw it. In this way, more than 500 people were destroyed by the enemy. ”

"If you go up, it's estimated that as soon as you go up, you'll give people a click!"

"Hey, old man, don't look down on people."

At this moment, the young soldiers were not happy, and they were screaming like cattle, and they didn't know it, and they thought that they were going to take advantage of the night to rush into the enemy's camp.

"That's right. The mountain warriors are powerful, but we are not vegetarians. ”

The warriors were gossiping to prove their bravery.

As the saying goes, there is no first in literature, and there is no second in martial arts.

In the army, the competition between various divisions and regiments and various arms of the army is really too normal. These warriors are from veteran troops like the Longxiang Legion, so their temper is naturally greater.

Except for Shenwuwei, I am afraid that there is no other army that can convince the soldiers.

When Lao Bangzi saw it, he shook his head and said nothing, but a trace of remembrance flashed in his eyes, thinking that back then, he was also so hot-blooded and warlike, and followed the prince to birth and death.

It's nice to be young!

I don't know if it's a sigh or a memory, floating in the cold wind of the night.

**********

And at the place where the story took place, in the huge hole, until late at night, there were bursts of "ping-pong" sounds. Under the instructions of General Bai Qi, the engineering squadrons of various divisions and regiments are repairing the city wall overnight, striving to re-plug this huge hole overnight.

As far as the eye can see, there are rows of barracks.

Mulan Fortress is a military fortress, and the buildings in the fortress naturally have a strong military style. The barracks are neatly repaired and look extremely eye-catching.

Because it is built on the mountain, the stone is sufficient, and the needs of the war are added, the buildings in the fortress are mainly made of stone, and then accompanied by blue bricks and tiles.

Timber, on the other hand, is a rarity in a fortress.

The architectural style of the entire fortress is with obvious military colors, tough, simple and practical. Even the commercial and residential areas built in the fortress are no exception.

The most conspicuous building of the fortress is naturally the headquarters of the Longxiang Legion.

The headquarters of the Legion is not an ordinary courtyard, but a five-story stone tower. Standing on the top floor of the stone tower and looking north, you can see the scene of the northern wilderness.

Bai Qi's office is located on this floor.

And here, naturally, it became the command of the whole army.

It was pitch black outside, but the white room was still brightly lit. The subordinates who are familiar with Bai Qi know that this chief is an out-and-out workaholic.

It was late at night, and the whole station seemed quiet.

At that moment, a sound of footsteps sounded in the hallway, breaking the silence of the night. Leaning slightly, an officer from the Military Intelligence Department walked into Bai Qi's room and bowed.

"General!"

"How's it going, have you recruited it?"

Bai Qi was burying his head on his desk, writing today's battle report, preparing to report it to the prince who was thousands of miles away. Seeing the intelligence officer walk in, Bai Qi put down his pen and ink, looked up and asked.

"No, this man is extremely stubborn, no matter how we torture him, he won't say a word." The diehards in the intelligence officer's mouth are naturally Li Xiucheng, who was captured during the day.

"Tough bones!"

"The subordinates are not doing well, please punish the general!"

Bai Qi didn't say much, but he scared the intelligence officer enough, and it was naturally understood that the general was dissatisfied with the results of the interrogation of the Military Intelligence Department.

If you are not satisfied with the results, you will naturally be dissatisfied with the Department of Military Intelligence and with him, an intelligence officer. Thinking of this, cold sweat began to break out on the young intelligence officer's forehead.

In the entire Longxiang Legion, there are more than 70,000 soldiers up and down, and there is not a single one who is not afraid of the general in his heart. Even peerless generals like Evil Lai and Shi Wansui were uncomfortable in front of Bai Qi, and they didn't dare to be presumptuous at all.

It's not how brave Bai Qi is, but how ruthless he is.

The battle of Zhaoqing, Bai Qi's ruthlessness, not only frightened the enemy, but also deterred a group of subordinate colleagues.

"I didn't say I was going to punish you."

Bai Qi waved his hand and said, "Since this is the case, let's take this person into custody for the time being!" ”

"No!" (To be continued.) )
