Chapter 1028 Magical Soldiers
Although the weather was cold at the moment, these soldiers didn't realize it, and their bodies were rushing with blood.

After about a stick of incense, they heard the sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the ground from far and near.

"Coming!" Everyone reminded each other, getting ready.

The Xijun soldiers on horseback galloped on the road leading to the royal city, and were ordered by General Sa and Deputy General Mo to report back to the royal city.

Both General Sa and Deputy General Mo said that as long as the letter handed over to them is presented to the king, they will be regarded as having made great contributions.When Li Yongqin's frontier army is dealt with, the king will definitely reward them heavily. At that time, they will be promoted and their salaries will be increased, as well as gold, silver and jewelry.

These few Xibing soldiers are secretly having fun now, thinking that they are lucky to get this good job.

So they all tightened the reins and patted their horses forward, lest they would fall behind others.

Soon, a group of them arrived at the position where the soldiers of the border town were ambushing. The soldiers of the border town stared at them, held their breath, and only said in their hearts, fall, fall quickly!
As if they heard what they were saying, the horses of the Xirong soldiers fell into the pit and overturned one after another, while the Xirong soldiers on the horses were thrown down.

Suddenly, people turned their backs, people roared, horses neighed, and there was chaos.

Before the Xibing soldiers could react, figures jumped out of the woods, like divine soldiers descending from the sky, all of them were nimble and quick to move up, stuffed a ball of cloth into their mouths, and then tied them tightly solid.

In the blink of an eye, they were dragged into the woods, followed by their horses.

Only then did the Xibing soldiers see clearly that the person who captured them was Dongyuan soldiers, and they lamented in their hearts that something was wrong.

Dongyuan soldiers had already ambushed here. Didn't General Sa say that Dongyuan people absolutely don't know the shortcuts in the mountains?Where did these Dongyuan soldiers come from?
They couldn't help complaining secretly to General Sa, just in case, they should send more people to escort them, and now they won't fall into the hands of these Dongyuan soldiers, who don't even have the strength to fight back.

And their rewards, promotions and salary increases, gold, silver and jewelry are all ruined!It's unclear whether my life can be saved!

Several Xibing soldiers were very unhappy and felt that the sky was falling.

However, the soldiers of the border city who successfully completed the interception task were very happy. They escorted these Xibing soldiers into the mountain, preparing to meet up with their companions in the mountain, and go back together to report to the general.

The weather is good today, the sun is out, bringing warmth to the cold winter.

The border town soldiers who took turns to rest in front of Erdi City basked in the sun, yelled at the city wall from time to time, laughed and scolded the Xirong thieves, feeling extremely comfortable.

At the same time, the tunnel continued to be dug, and the speed of digging deeper was slower than at the beginning, but everyone held back their energy and changed people to work without rest. By noon, the tunnel had been dug halfway distance.

The kitchen prepared lunch, and the soldiers took turns eating.

Father Yunxia and Wang Ze brought the food in front of the city wall to eat, and then argued with the Xibing soldiers on the city wall, but they didn't get a response, so they ate with the soldiers on their own, bursting into laughter from time to time.

The Xirong soldiers on the city wall had never had the experience of eating with the general. Looking at Li Yongqin who was mingling with the soldiers on the border, he felt envious for no reason.

The frontier soldiers are lucky to have a general like Li Yongqin. Judging from the fact that Li Yongqin gave up attacking for the lives of Dongyuan prisoners, he will only treat his subordinates better.

Xi Rongbing deeply felt that this was simply an extravagant hope for them, and lamented that life was different!
If General Sa can do this, they will definitely suspect that the sun is coming out from the west.

In fact, it's fine if General Sa doesn't eat with them. If they can beat and scold them less on weekdays, they will be grateful.

Just like now, it's past noon, and they are already so hungry that their chests are pressed against their backs.But seeing Dongyuan soldiers eating happily, they didn't even see the food.

Xi Rongbing couldn't help swallowing hard, his eyes glowed green, he was hungry!
In the turret, Sa Diao and Moser had already started to eat lunch. The table was already messed up, but it could still be seen that the meal was rich. The two even had a drink to celebrate the smooth implementation of the plan.

"Brother Mo, do you think Li Yongqin will react?" Sa Diao put down his chopsticks, wiped the grease from his mouth and said.

Moser laughed a few times before answering Sa Diao: "No matter how cunning Li Yongqin is, he doesn't know the situation of our Xirong. He just said that he knows the short-cut road from Edicheng to Wangcheng? It's us from Xirong who know it." Not much.

There are secret checkpoints near the secret road near the royal city, whoever dares to break through will surely die.

Your Majesty said that the fewer people who know about this road, the better. It can play a big role as a secret road in the royal city. "

Hearing what Moser said, Sa Diao felt relieved, that's right, Moser didn't tell him about this secret path, even he didn't know about it, let alone Li Yongqin.

But why not let the person who reported the letter take this secret path?
Moser snorted, thinking what stupid thing Sa Diao said, the person who reported the letter had never walked through the secret path, what should I do if I get lost?Isn't it a delay?That's why he decided to let the reporter take the road to make sure nothing goes wrong.

Tsk tsk, just as stupid as Sa Diao, if it wasn't for Lao Tzu's help, Li Yongqin would have killed him long ago.

So he told Sa Diao the reason with a stern face, Sa Diao suddenly realized, scratched his head and said: "It's better that brother Mo is thoughtful."

Sa Diao also realized that the question just asked was too stupid, maybe in order to save himself a little face, he added a sentence: "The fly in the ointment is that it will take twice as long to get to the royal city."

Moser gave Sa Diao a sideways look, and said in a calm tone, "That's better than the letter not being delivered."

When the two stared and bickered, the soldiers in the border town had enough to eat, and they went to the tunnel digging energetically.

In the narrow tunnel, the soldiers were methodical, each with their own division of labor, working in full swing.

Those in charge of excavation dig the soil forward vigorously, those in charge of tamping the tunnel wall carefully press the soil tightly, and those in charge of transporting the soil pack the soil in baskets, clear it to the tunnel entrance time after time, and hand it over to the companions waiting there. The soldiers who arrived at the soil poured the soil into a flatbed cart, returned the baskets, waited for the soil to be filled with a cart, and then transported it out and dumped it behind the valley...

When one group of people got tired, another group went up to take turns to rest, and everyone put in their best efforts.

Yun Xia's father and Wang Ze didn't listen to the soldiers' dissuasion, but also went down to dig in the tunnel. In the end, even Wei Hang, Yun Xia and Ju Lian jumped into the tunnel to help.

The soldiers of the frontier city were united up and down, working together like a rope, so that the tunnel dug longer and longer during their work, like a sharp long sword piercing the Edicheng, but this sword is actually as bright as a sword, as bright as electricity, like a rainbow!

Then the exciting good news spread to the soldiers again, the soldiers who went to stop the Edi City from sending out the callers came back, and indeed captured seven or eight soldiers from the West, which shattered the conspiracy of Sa Diao and Moser in one fell swoop , It also avoids the worries of the frontier army.

The soldiers worked with more energy.

Yunxia's prediction was correct. By dusk, the tunnel had been dug right under the city wall, and she swam to the barracks of Erdi City like a swimming dragon.

The tunnel is divided into two parts, left and right, and continues to extend forward.

Soon everything was ready, and Father Yunxia ordered everyone to stop work for the time being and start work in the middle of the night.

Bonfires were lit at the mouth of the valley and in front of the city wall, and everyone began to have dinner around the campfire, talking and laughing very comfortably.

Compared with the ease of the frontier army, Moser and Sa Diao on the city wall are not so calm.

"Brother Mo, why haven't the reinforcements from Wangcheng arrived yet? Didn't you say that they should arrive at dusk?" Sa Diao saw that the sky was getting dark, and began to question Moser.

Moser touched his nose, feeling a little worried, supposedly he should be there?Could it be that something happened on the road?

But in front of Sa Diao, he forced himself to stabilize: "Brother Sa, the king still has to make preparations when he receives the letter, such as calling the civil servants and generals in the king's city to discuss and discuss before sending troops. I didn't think about these at first."
