Until Ye Qingcheng and others brought back food and water in large and small bags, Huan Chenyu was still observing the sentries with his hands crossed on his chest, but he had already changed his observation position because the person who followed him before was no longer there. Because of this, he can move more freely. If an outsider stood in a certain place and kept observing the sentinels, it would undoubtedly arouse curiosity and vigilance, so he changed several observation points in succession. Anyway, the sentinels were all from the same batch, regardless of the location, and the observations were different. The sentries also gave him an insight into the garrison.
When it was almost dark, Huan Chenyu finally returned to the area where they were. Most of his Tang soldiers were too tired from running around for several days, so most of them went to sleep in their tents to prepare for the night's operations. prepare for. Although Ye Qingcheng clearly told them that they were basically not allowed to set fire, they knew that once it was done, they would probably start their escape, and they might be overtaken by the pursuers, so it was very important to get proper rest. Necessary.
Ye Qingcheng, the three of them and Wang Rao were in the same camp. When Huan Chenyu walked in, the three of them were lying on their bunks and taking a nap. As soon as he came in, the three of them woke up instantly. This is what a scout is doing. a habit. No, Ye Qingcheng and the others just felt the aura of Huan Chenyu, while Wang Nanwan did it because of his professional habits.
"How is it?" Ye Qingcheng asked anxiously. He had been feeling a little distracted since just now. This was the enemy's garrison camp. How could he possibly sleep? And he always felt that something was not done well, and it was very likely that a flaw would be exposed, but he didn't know what the problem was, so he could only hide this worry in his heart.
Huan Chenyu first sat down and drank some water. Even he needed to eat and drink now. He who didn't drink water all day was simply not a human being.
"It's not a good situation to be honest, but there are a lot of opportunities."
"What's the explanation?" The other three people all looked confused.
Huan Chenyu took out a hand-drawn map from his body. During the Tianbao period, white paper had become very popular in the Tang Dynasty. Unlike the barbarians in the north and the Li Te and Da Shi people in the west who still used parchment, And scouts like them naturally use white paper, and naturally they use very fine ink pens instead of brushes. Guys like him with a strong sense of direction and memory are very important in a scout team, and not every scout team has people who can draw maps. Even if they do, their drawing abilities vary widely.
But Huan Chenyu is of course the most perfect among them. The map he took out completely included all the terrain of Xicang, including the camp, training ground, and racecourse. , canteens, etc. are all marked one by one. The guard towers, the distance between the guard towers, the number of sentries, and their shift times are all marked. It is an extremely detailed map, and it is perfectly drawn. This is the work of his own obsessive-compulsive disorder. .
Wang Rao, who came up to look at the map, couldn't help but take a breath. I'm afraid even the top painter in Chang'an would not be able to achieve this kind of effect. It is also said that the rigor in mastering the information is definitely unparalleled among the frontier troops. Second to none. Although he is only a small fire leader, he also knows very well that even among the 200,000 people on Wang Shuai's side, there will never be another one who can paint at this level.
"Oh, so detailed." Ye Qingcheng, who was a step behind, also felt a little unexpected. He didn't expect that Huan Chenyu, a physical practitioner, could have such skills. He really couldn't understand his spiritual beast more and more. , is it possible that he wants to become a man with both civil and military skills?
It's unlikely... He shook his head. Even he himself didn't believe this view. They can stay in the human world for a few years at most. Once mortals start to practice the basic skills of cultivators, their bodies will age. will begin to delay. In other words, the appearance and appearance of the cultivator and the time when he starts cultivating are very important. He didn't know the age of his current body, but judging from his face, he was probably in his twenties. If he waited a few years later and waited until he was in his thirties to start cultivation, he would not only miss the best age for cultivation. , I am afraid that my brain is not as flexible as when I was young, and so is my reflexes. The most important thing is that my appearance is definitely not as good as when I was young. Although he doesn't attach much importance to a person's appearance, it is his body and his path after all. He is not willing to wait until middle age to start cultivating. Although he can go wild and practice some common basic skills, but He is a guy who aspires to the immortal world. How could he practice those inferior things? He can only practice high-level skills. Therefore, he cannot stay in the mortal world for a few years. As the master, he couldn't stay for more than a few years, let alone these guys who were at the Demon King level. However, he suddenly thought that guys at the level of Huan Chenyu and the two of them could spend decades or even just practicing in seclusion. Hundreds of years, thousands of years, there are endless ones. Now they are practicing in the two spirit beast rings in his hands. Will Huan Chenyu take the opportunity of practicing in his body to want to travel more in the human world? After all, this Having a mortal body will be of no use to him after Ye Qingcheng enters the world of cultivation. Perhaps he can learn a lot of useful things in the mortal world. At that time, Huan Chenyu may want to stay.
But it's still early anyway, and he hasn't even solved the current crisis yet, so how can he have the time to think about those things.
He looked at the information about the sentry posts and sentry changing times in detail, which was the most critical for tonight's operation.
"They rotate every three hours, and there should be four waves every day. Unexpectedly, there are people who strictly enforce military discipline in the hinterland behind the enemy lines, and there are sentry posts during the day. It seems that Batanoya really has some strength, but it makes us unable to Good to start. However, their combat effectiveness is not very strong. Although they are very strong immediately, their infantry combat is very weak compared to our Tang army. This is my conclusion after observing them at their training ground for a period of time. In this Xicang camp Here, their cavalry cannot take advantage of it, and although the military discipline seems to be strict, at night, some of the Khitan sentries should be lazy and fall asleep. In the daytime alone, I saw many people holding their eyes open. If If there weren't officers who checked from time to time, they would have fallen asleep long ago."
"Oh? This is good news." A big stone fell to the ground in Ye Qingcheng's heart. I'm afraid he was too worried. Since even Huan Chenyu said so, there shouldn't be any problem. After finding a time to have dinner to communicate with everyone later, we will wait until the evening to start. Once the matter is completed, we will rush to the stable and leave on our own horses. By then, these guys will be busy putting out the fire and may not even care. Got on them.
Deep in such a grassland, the wind is strong and there is no water source. Once a fire breaks out, it is impossible to extinguish it. In addition, the fire oil is so violent that they only need to light a spark. As for how to burn it later, it is none of their business. .
