There were two war horses carrying more than a hundred kilograms of baggage, including five crossbows, five crossbow strings, one hundred crossbow arrows, one three stone bow, one hundred wooden arrows, fifty kilograms of rice, fifty kilograms of dried meat, ten kilograms of clear water, ten kilograms of salt, two kilograms of 37 powder [stop bleeding, promote blood circulation], a bundle of steamed cotton cloth, one kilogram of alcohol, one fishing cage, and one hundred steamed cakes.

Suddenly, a straight wolf smoke rose up about three miles ahead of a twelve riders. The man with a telescope quickly picked up the telescope for a while, and said loudly: "Big Tiger, Little Tiger, get on the horse."

In an instant, the two dogs walking in front of him barked and quickly turned around and ran. After only seven or eight breaths, they jumped high into two empty bamboo baskets.

The leader shouted again: "Prepare for the first level of battle, everyone gallops forward with me."

As soon as the words were finished, the leader had already started to race. Then the horses on the eleventh riding were getting faster and faster, and a stream of smoke and dust followed the riding team tightly~~~

~~~~~~

Where the wolf smoke rose was a twelve-man guarded pier beside the wooden bridge on the inner side of the river, about six feet deep and three feet wide. Looking around, the earth wall was built within the inner side of the river, which was more than three feet high and more than one foot thick.

The pier is made of rammed earth, five zhang long, four zhang wide, two zhang high, and one zhang thick. Within it, there are beacon towers [smoke during the day and fire at night], barracks, warehouses, and wells made of bricks and stones.

This pier is nine miles west of Nanguan City, and is the West No. 3 pier. When the wolf smoke from the West No. 3 pier rose, the wolf smoke from the West No. 2 pier also rose after a while.

The highest commander of the West No. 3 pier, Xiaoqi, stood under a three-meter-long wooden shed on the pier wall and watched the personal soldiers go away. Then he turned around and looked at the large area of ​​smoke and dust on the other side of the river in front of him, and said, "Left Soldier, is the wooden fence on the wooden bridge by the river ten steps away from the pier?"

As soon as Wang Xiaoqi finished speaking, a dark man bowed and replied: "If you go back to Xiaoqi, the wooden fence close to the wooden bridge by the river has been firmly closed, and all of them are blocked from behind with large and large stones."

Wang Xiaoqi nodded, and the left sergeant immediately flashed to the side. Wang Xiaoqi looked at the smoke and dust in front of him, saying again: "Right sergeant, has the mechanism been checked? Are the military preparations ready?"

Another young and eighteen-nine-year-old young man bowed and said, "If you go back to Xiaoqi, the agency has checked and found no problems. The soldiers are on standby at the door of the warehouse, and all the military equipment guarding the Taiwan Strait is ready."

Wang Xiaoqi nodded again, and Qingjian retreated aside. Before a cup of tea [about fifteen minutes] had passed, the smoke and dust that covered the sky and the sun had reached more than seventy steps outside the wooden bridge.

While rescinding the horse and slowing down, Nalashu said to his personal soldiers: "The entire army stops advancing and disperses his vigilance."

Five or six personal soldiers gave a chest scrubbing salute, then quickly blew the flags. When the entire army gradually stopped the horse and slowed down, they went to search for the leaders of each team to continue to pass the orders.

At the same time, a group of twelve cavalry had already arrived at the West No. 3 platform more than ten steps away. The leader took out a telescope and looked at the other side of the river. He saw that more than fifty steps away from the other side, more than five hundred cavalry Jiannu scattered on the field, flags fluttered in the wind, and armor shone brightly.

The leader put down his telescope and said to the knights beside him: "All members are ready for battle. Yuan Fang, please pass me quickly and order all the combatants of the Secret Service to come and meet."

"No" Wei Yuanfang responded loudly, and then quickly drove away. The leader picked up the telescope and looked forward again. The war horses under him were sniffing excitedly, and the war dogs in the basket of five war horses also showed excitement.

"The fifth team projectile." Narashu shouted loudly.

The personal soldiers beside him immediately took the order out. With the transmission of the order, more than a hundred people in the rear formation of Jiannu immediately dismounted. In a moment, his right hand touched the long step bow on one side of the horse's body~~~
