Being an unknown hero, only he himself knew whether Li Zexuan had suffered a loss. Although Cheng Yaojin was unwilling to do so, he could only be anxious because he also knew very well that if all this matter was made public, With so many auras thrown at Li Zexuan, Li Zexuan is so sharp that he is bound to cause a lot of unnecessary trouble!
Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them. This proverb is not unreasonable!
"... There are three open sentinels in the northwest corner of the inn, and one hidden sentry on each of the third and fifth trees to the west!"
"There are six people on guard at the back door of the inn, two people on guard under the tea shed across the street, and one on the first tree to the east and west of the tea shed!"
"There are four open sentries in the northeast corner of the inn, one secret sentry under the firewood pile on the west side of Fenghe Street, and one secret sentry next to Chen Kee Butcher Shop on the east side!"
"There are four open sentries to the east of the inn, and one secret sentry on the first, third, and fifth trees from the north..."
In Taiyuan City, on a roof one mile away from Tongfu Inn, Tiedan held a telescope and carefully "scanned" all the "suspicious characters" around Tongfu Inn. Whenever he saw someone wearing a sword and standing tall, , and when he stood in a certain place for a long time without moving, he would put down his telescope and record the person's position on the map.
Of course, this map near Tongfu Inn was also drawn by Tiedan. Its level of detail has been down to every plant and tree, which is much more detailed than the government map!
Tiedan doesn't stay in one place. Whenever he can't see more useful information in a location, he will change locations. It's really "shooting to change places"!
This is mainly because there are no particularly tall buildings around Tongfu Inn. Even if Tiedan stands on the roof of someone else's house, there will be many blind spots in his vision.
Since receiving the order from Li Junxian in the early morning, Tiedan has changed nearly seven or eight "observation points". He moves very carefully. No matter where he is observing, he will ensure that he is one mile away from Tongfu Inn, so as to ensure that he will not be exposed to the greatest extent.
"We have to change places again!"
Tie Dan held the telescope and carefully searched the field of view. After still finding nothing, Tie Dan put away the telescope and planned to go to the next "observation point".
He first looked around and found that no one was around. He jumped lightly, jumped from the roof, and then walked south along the street as if nothing had happened.
The task Li Junxian gave him was to spend a whole morning arranging the positions of all the open and hidden sentries arranged by the Turkic spies outside Tongfu Inn. No mistakes were allowed!
This task is not an arduous one. The open sentry arranged by the Turkic spies outside the inn is easy to find, but the hidden sentry is very difficult to find! Since they are secret sentries, those people must be hiding under some bunkers. If you want to find them, you must have enough patience and good eyesight!
Of course, for the sake of safety, it is best to use a telescope for observation, but among the trustworthy people around Li Junxian, only Tiedan can use a telescope, and Tiedan is just a half-grown child. Even if a Turkic spy encounters him, he will not be able to use a telescope. If you don't feel vigilant, if you send a hundred cavalry to perform this task, if it is seen by a Turkic spy, the result will be difficult to predict!
"There are five open sentries near the southeast corner, and two secret sentries on the roof near the courtyard wall, huh? There is also a secret sentry hidden in the sycamore tree in the southeast corner!"
After changing to another observation point, Tiedan used his binoculars to "scan" everything in the southeast corner of the inn. He looked very carefully. Although Li Junxian had not told him the overall plan to rescue Li Tai, he was thinking He knew that clearing out all the Turkic spies' outposts outside the inn was crucial to rescuing Li Tai. If there were any omissions, something bad might happen at the last moment. He had to make sure that no one slipped through the net!
In this way, after Tiedan changed more than twenty observation points in total, he finally cleared all the open and hidden sentries in all directions around the inn, at least as far as he could currently do it!
"General Li, there are a total of 38 open sentries and 22 secret sentries outside the inn. I have marked their locations on this map! If these Turkic spies are on duty during the day and night, that is to say There are at least sixty Turkic spies resting in the inn, waiting for their turn!"
In the corner tower of the south city wall, Tiedan handed Li Junxian the "defense plan" of Tongfu Inn that he had worked so hard to draw, and said.
Li Junxian took it and took a look, and was immediately surprised. He saw that not only was the outline of the inn clearly drawn on the drawing, but even the trees, streets, firewood piles, sheds, etc. around the inn were marked in great detail. It's jaw-dropping. As for the open posts arranged by the Turkic spies outside the inn, they are marked with circles at the corresponding locations on the map, while the hidden posts are marked with a △. These are clearly written in the annotations of the legend, making it clear at a glance. !
With this map, Li Junxian was very confident that he could quickly find the open and hidden sentries around the inn!
"Okay! Okay! Okay! This map is too detailed!"
After Li Junxian studied the map for a while, he looked up at Tiedan with a face of surprise and said, "Brother Tiedan, you did a good job. I didn't expect that you are also good at drawing maps. This skill is comparable to the imperial painter who specializes in drawing maps." ! With this map, we are half done! Thank you for your hard work!"
"I don't have to work hard! As long as I can save Qingque, no matter how hard I work, it's all worth it!"
Tiedan was a little embarrassed by Li Junxian's praise. He scratched his head and said: "Most of the academy students have studied engineering drawing. This is not difficult for academy students! However, Li General, is this map really crucial to rescuing Qingque?"
"of course!"
Li Junxian nodded with certainty and said: "I can't tell you the detailed rescue plan yet. It's not because I don't trust you. It's just that the fewer people who know about this matter, the better! But what I can tell you is that only Only by investigating all the open and secret sentinels of the Turkic spies outside the inn can we successfully rescue His Highness! If one person is left out, there will be one more variable in our rescue of Qingque!"
Hearing this, Tiedan's face became a little serious. He hesitated for a moment, then clasped his fists to Li Junxian and said, "Since this matter is so important, to make sure everything is safe, I ask the general to allow me to go to the inn to secretly investigate in person." Are there any fish that have slipped through the net and are not recorded on the map?”
