Qiao Lin sucked his teeth and circled the room.

The soldiers subconsciously moved out of the way, for fear of disturbing his thinking.

Can't get out, can't wait until the snow melts, and don't have tools at hand...

tool?

Qiao Lin's heart moved, and he walked to the pile of broken furniture that hadn't been burned yet.

After rummaging through it, I pulled out a wooden plank one meter wide and two meters long, which should be on the cabinet.

He held it in his hand and weighed it. It was quite heavy, and it was a good piece of wood.

I saw Qiaolin lay the plank flat on the snow, and then stepped on it.

"squeaky"

After the snow was squeezed, it made a unique sound.

Standing on the board, Qiao Lin could clearly feel his body sinking with the board.

"Don't be dazed, a few more people will help me step on it together."

Qiao Lin waved at the soldiers who were still a little unclear, and immediately a few of them jumped up quickly.

As the number of people increased, the weight increased, and the board carrying several people began to sink again.

"Okay, let's all go down."

Qiao Lin shook his body, feeling that his feet were stable, and led everyone to jump off the plank.

The place where the wooden plank was pressed seemed to be hollowed out, and it was nearly a meter shorter than the sides.

After lifting the board and stepping on it, it was quite strong, and there was no problem for people standing on it. The experiment confirmed that Qiao Lin's idea was feasible.

"Look again, is there any board like this?"

This time, without waiting for Qiao Lin to speak, Lei Gong, who had already understood Qiao Lin's thoughts, said quickly.

The soldiers rushed to the pile of waste furniture like a swarm, and luckily found a board of the same size.

"We step on the front, and you follow behind."

Qiao Lin put the board on the snow and jumped on it.

The two boards relayed back and forth, forcing out a passage in this difficult-to-walk snow field.

Although the speed is slower, it is finally moving forward.

"Company commander, finally came out."

It took nearly a day for the troops to finally walk out of Xiajieyu, and the soldiers were exhausted. This method of pressing snow while walking was more tiring than marching in a hurry.

Next, as long as you pass through the Langlin Mountains, you will be able to reach the Pingde Railway Line.

"Rest in place for a while, and prepare to enter the mountain."

Qiao Lin took out the map to look at it, and confirmed the location.

After leaving Xiajieyu, the snow on the ground was significantly less, only less than one foot deep, and we could move forward by walking.

The Langlin Mountains are located in the northern part of the peninsula, high in the south and low in the north. It is formed by dozens of peaks, with an average altitude of about 2000 meters.

After resting on the spot for 10 minutes, the troops set off into the Langlin Mountains. Since it was already evening and the sky was getting dark, the marching speed was not fast.

"Stop moving forward!"

A few hours later, Qiao Lin, who was at the forefront of the team, stopped suddenly. Through the moonlight, he saw a series of footprints on the ground.

"It's a horseshoe print!"

Lei Gong, who was from the Orion family, recognized it immediately.

"Why are there horseshoe prints in this place?"

Jolin instinctively realized something was wrong.

Although the snow accumulation in the Langlin Mountains is not as exaggerated as in Xiajieyu due to the mountainous climate, it is still nearly a foot deep.

With such a thick snow, the local people will not release the horses they raise, and these horseshoe marks are very dense. Although it is hard to tell how many horses there are, they are definitely not few.

Army horse?

Qiao Lin and Lei Gong looked at each other and thought of a possibility at the same time.

"Could it be left by our volunteers?"

Lei Gong thought for a while and said.

The transportation capacity of the Volunteer Army is poor, and a lot of luggage and supplies need to be pulled by mules and horses. It is normal to see horseshoe prints here. After all, the Langlin Mountains extend in all directions, and it is impossible to guarantee which transport troops will pass here.

"Not like!"

Qiao Lin squatted on the ground, carefully observing the traces.

"If it was left by our volunteer army, there should be traces of wheels crushed, or footprints of infantry marching, but you see, there are no other traces in this area except for horseshoe prints."

Lei Gong frowned, he also found many abnormalities.

"Do you suspect that there are cavalry passing here?"

he asked uncertainly.

"It's very likely, and seeing that the footprints are not covered with snow, it means that they have not been passing by for a long time."

Jolin put his fingers into the horseshoe prints and tried it out. It was very firm and did not feel soft after being covered by snow.

The Volunteer Army has no cavalry, only the Mi Army has cavalry.

Almost without further analysis, Qiao Lin and Lei Gong immediately figured out the origin of this group of cavalry.

Although the two sides did not meet directly, the Langlin Mountains were still in a vacuum on the battlefield, and the sudden appearance of traces of enemy cavalry passing by was enough to show that the problem was serious.

"Li Ming, quickly send power to Zhisi. Our department found traces of enemy cavalry in the Langlin Mountains, and asked if we should follow them."

Qiao Lin ordered the soldiers to be vigilant, and he and Lei Gong went to investigate the vicinity again. Judging from the footprints, the route of the enemy cavalry should be from west to east, and the speed was very fast without stopping.

Yuquan Station Zhisi.

The boss looked at the telegram sent by Cheng Wengang, and suddenly laughed: "I said, why can't I find the shadow of the First Division of the Mi Army Cavalry? It turned out that they hid in the Langlin Mountains. These boys will really surprise people."

"Boss, what should we do next?"

Although Cheng Wen didn't know what happened, but judging from the boss's reaction, it seemed that he had gained something unexpected again.

"Call back, pay attention to safety, continue to retreat, don't worry about other things."

The boss waved his hand, and the corner of his mouth immediately raised: "Now that I know where you are, it's easier to handle."

Wolf Forest Mountains.

"What? Let's continue to retreat?"

Qiao Lin looked at the telegram he had just received and suspected that he had read it wrong.

According to the normal steps, shouldn't we continue to follow up and report the situation at any time?

"Maybe the boss has other arrangements."

Although Lei Gong didn't understand why he received such a reply, he had been in the army for many years and had seen all kinds of orders, so he wasn't too surprised.

Chapter 130 Four Ambush Troops in the Ice and Snow

"Then let's follow orders."

Qiao Lin was a little frustrated, found something unusual, and was about to investigate, but the boss told him not to meddle in his own business.

This feeling is like a punch that has already accumulated enough strength, but it didn't hit it in the end.

The troops moved on.

According to the original plan, Qiao Lin planned to walk out of the Langlin Mountains before dawn, and then rush to Yuquan Station Zhisi before dark tomorrow.

"This place is good for ambushes. If a company is deployed, at least one regiment of the enemy can be blocked!"

After arriving at an intersection, Qiao Lin pointed to a slope directly ahead and said.

This is an intersection where three sides intersect, and the place Qiao Lin is looking for is just at the intersection, where he can attack while advancing, and defend when retreating.

"careful!"

Ping He, who was a sniper, suddenly noticed something unusual and shouted a warning, and the next moment everyone fell to the ground.

"what's the situation?"

Qiao Lin rolled over to Pinghe and asked.

"There's an ambush up there!"

Ping He pointed to the slope in front of him and said.

"Someone?"

Qiao Lin looked up, but he couldn't see anything unusual from the bottom up.

Quietly, without any sound.

Of course, no one doubted Ping He, and everyone believed that he must have discovered something.

But after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear any movement. Qiao Lin lost his temper, quietly raised his gun, and fired two shots towards the hillside.

The crisp gunshots pierced the tranquility of the night, but there was no expected scene of loud gunshots and a fierce exchange of fire between the two sides.

It was still quiet on the hillside, without any response.

"I'll go take a look!"

Qiao Lin got up and jumped twice on the spot, as if deliberately exposing himself to the other party, but there was still no reaction.

At this time, he couldn't help but doubt Ping He, whether he was a little too nervous.

Anyway, go up and find out.

The hillside is not high, only tens of meters, and the trees are very dense, basically the distance between every two trees will not exceed one meter.

Qiao Lin, who had just climbed up, didn't notice any abnormality. The shadows of the trees reflected by the moonlight were dragged on the snow, forming a scene of black shadows and white snow intertwined.
