In Hedong County, between Chang'an and Bingzhou, it was getting late when Li Jing and his party arrived. They did not go to the inn, nor did they enter the nearby county to rest. Instead, Li Jing wanted to guide the two highnesses and teach them some simple formations. After learning about the formation, they immediately set up camp in the wild.
His Highnesses Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian, who had been sent back by Xu Yunyan, could not help but cheer when they saw the military camp being set up step by step and following the essence of the art of war. Although there were few people, it was still as rigorously set up as ever.
Look here and there, the two people are smiling brilliantly.
"It's so weird to see here. It's obviously just a row of fences, but why do I feel so weird?"
When Li Chengqian said here that this fence looked a bit murderous, Li Chengdao couldn't help but shake his head and study it.
"How good is this fence?"
As the two of them were studying here, the soldiers looked at them and really wanted to slap them in the face.
Isn't this fence just an ordinary fence? How can it be excellent? Why is he so murderous?
Is there water in your head or is it caught in the door? Got kicked by a donkey while wondering?
Just because of their status, they didn't say anything?
However, Li Jing, who was patrolling the camp, saw the two people talking next to the fence and immediately exploded.
How reasonable? How murderous? How to make people unexpected?
Hearing this, Li Jing's face turned completely dark. A cough caught their attention.
After Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian, who were chatting enthusiastically, looked at Li Jing, Li Jing began to explain.
"Your Highnesses, this is just an ordinary fence, nothing special."
When Li Jing said this, the two of them instantly became ashamed.
"General Li, please enlighten me, why do I see these fences filled with murderous intent?"
When Li Chengqian said this, Li Jing smiled.
"But His Highness observed carefully. There are some small nails in the fence. Once someone tries to climb over the fence, they can be injured or caught, so it feels like there is a trace of murderous intent."
After Li Jing's instruction, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian were surprised.
Just when a few people knew that the true situation of this matter was not what they thought, although they thought that it was indeed a bit dangerous to make the fence, there was still a big way out between the actual situation and what they thought.
But just when Li Jing and Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian were discussing other matters in front of the fence, Li Jing suddenly changed his behavior as a humble old man and pulled the two highnesses.
"Your Highness, be careful!"
Li Jing pulled them back as he spoke, and as soon as he retreated, the soldiers beside Li Jing, although not as elite as Xu Yunyan's training, had been following Li Jing in the northern and southern battles, and their reactions were still very fast.
After they retreated, they directly turned the buckler on their backs to their chests to block Li Jing, Li Chengdao, and Li Chengqian.
Just after everything was prepared, a sharp arrow hit the guard's shield.
This time, one of them was pampered. Although they had been in contact with the army, Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian, who had not been attacked, were instantly frightened.
But just after the guards ensured their safety, someone in the camp shouted that there was an enemy attack.
In an instant, the soldiers guarding the camp started to move, and the guards trained and arranged by Xu Yunyan had dark faces!
We just helped set up camp here without paying attention to our surroundings, and you are here to cause trouble. Where can we put our old faces?
Immediately, the elite soldiers of the Xuanwu Sect who were guarding Li Jing disappeared in an instant under the arrangement of the leading brigade commander, and moved towards the endless darkness outside the camp like ghosts.
As Li Jing's side was on alert, several more sharp arrows were shot from a distance, but no one was hurt at all in front of the prepared Tang army, and they all hit the shield.
"How dare you, a thief? How dare you do this."
Just when Li Jing's guards were angry, shouts of killing came from the dark wilderness outside the camp.
Hearing this, Li Jing breathed a sigh of relief for no reason, while Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian couldn't help but clap their hands.
"Beautiful! It's Master's people who took action, and our trouble seems to have been solved."
Seeing the two of them looking so harmonious, Li Jing didn't know why he felt so comfortable. There was no need to worry about the safety of the camp. Since Xu Yunyan had taken action, there should be no problem.
But after Li Jing spoke, his guard captain did quit.
"General, you have a distinguished status. You cannot let them do whatever they want. You should wait until I arrange for someone to go out for inspection."
After the guard captain finished speaking, Li Jing shook his head.
"You don't need to be suspicious of others. Since you trust him, you can definitely do a good job. Just stay here and watch."
Not long after Li Jing finished his decisive words, he remembered the sounds of some wild beasts in the wilderness that could not possibly exist at this time.
As these voices fell one after another, the brigade commander, the elite soldier of Xuanwu Sect who had been active nearby, stepped forward and reported to Li Jing.
"General, all the shooters outside have been eliminated, and the camp is safe."
Li Jing's guard captain looked at Li Jing without saying anything but looked at him with confusion.
Is this solved? How can it be! How long has it been?
But just when everyone was doubting this moment, the leader of the Xuanwu Sect's elite soldiers in the distance put his hand in his mouth and blew out a wild beast's roar. The same voice in the distance soon replied.
After confirming that there was indeed no problem, the brigade commander clasped his fists at Li Jing again.
"General Li has confirmed that there is indeed no danger."
His series of actions made Li Jing's eyes light up, "Your method is very good, but there are no wolves or tigers here, so your voices are a bit too much."
The brigade commander smiled, "General Li is overly worried. If we hadn't noticed that there were no such beasts in this place at night and made such noises, we usually would have used birdsong to convey the news."
Li Jing was thoughtful and nodded as if he had thought of something.
"Very good, very good. I didn't expect that everything Xu Yunyan studied was so appropriate."
Another compliment made Li Chengdao and Li Chengqian beside Li Jing feel proud.
However, Li Jing's guard captain was still a little unsure about this.
"General Li..."
Li Jing looked at his guard captain hesitating here and smiled again.
"You are used to seeing life and death. Why are you so uncertain? You are really unsure. Wait here. As long as they deal with Xiao Xiao who dares to attack us, dragging him here will definitely explain the matter."
As Li Jing finished speaking, some figures in the distance moved toward the camp. Seeing the figures in the distance, the guard captain shouted, "All troops are on alert!"
Following his words, the soldiers in the camp were not as good as the Xuanwumen clan in terms of battlefield response and special operations. However, the level of their battle formations was unparalleled. They immediately changed from a defensive state to an offensive formation with just one order. The person in the distance can be insinuated into a hornet's nest.
But just as the guard captain finished making arrangements, the Xuanwumen brigade commander was talking here.
"Don't worry about this general, he's one of ours."
Not long after the brigade commander finished speaking, he took out something that looked like it was made of bamboo and threw it into the distance.
The moment the bamboo was thrown out, a slight light flashed, and it turned out to be soldiers wearing Xuanwu Sect armor.
Li Jing became curious when he saw this piece of bamboo.
"What is this? How can it emit such a weak light? Although it is not very strong, you can still see the figure clearly in this darkness."
After Li Jing asked the question, the Tushuai said with a smile, "This is the work of my general. He said that throwing torches at night can prepare these enemies to hide in advance, but throwing this thing is not that important. It’s not clear in the dark that something can be unexpectedly done.”
The brigade took out an object from his arms and handed it to Li Jing. Li Jing nodded with satisfaction and took the bamboo tube handed over by the brigade commander.
"Kerosene and a little cotton?"
The brigade commander nodded hastily, "General, you are wise. This bamboo tube is filled with kerosene. There is a cotton ball in front. When you use it, light it on fire and throw it out. When it breaks, it will emit a weak flame."
"I didn't expect such a small item to have such effects. It's not bad."
Li Jing felt that he had praised a lot of people today, but he still needed praise.
