Xue Ziqin led a few people into the water first. The other people who couldn't swim were already ready, and they were led into the water by the veterans. Jiang also stood on the shore alone, and the two veterans were ready to pull him when they came up. Going, Jiang also shrank back, dodging the veteran's hand.
"What are you doing? Playing house wine? What are you still ink?" One of the veterans said impatiently. Jiang Ye was about to say something, when Wei Lin came over with a large log and said with a smile: "Two big brothers, my friend is afraid of life, I'll just take him, don't bother the two big brothers. ."
"Yo ho, little brother during the war, you are still afraid of life, do you think you are going on a blind date?"
"Brother is right. I will definitely educate him when I look back. Let's not delay our efforts today. I will be responsible for him."
"Cut." The veteran just saved his time, turned his head and went to the shore to follow the large army into the water. Wei Lin handed the log to Jiang Ye and said, "Here, hold it, don't panic after entering the water, just listen to me."
"...Understood." Jiang also understood that this kind of thing was no joke, so he didn't say anything more. He followed Wei Lin all the way to the shore. The two were already the last two in the team. Wei Lin pushed Jiang Ye and motioned him to go down first: "Hold tight, I'll take care of you from behind."
Jiang also nodded, although Wei Lin might not be able to see it in the dark, he cautiously stuck out his feet, and was a little scared, but he didn't want to show it, so he could only step on it carefully step by step. After walking a few steps, the water got deeper, and the log in his hand began to work. Jiang Ye's heart calmed down a little, and he continued to walk into the water. Who knew that this riverbed was so strange, and it was still stable before. When I settled down, this step was bottomless, and the whole person swayed in the river water completely relying on the log.
Jiang also didn't want to, but he couldn't control his body at all and struggled in a panic.
Wei Lin jumped directly from the shore, grabbed Jiang Ye's hair, and Jiang Ye exclaimed in pain, "It hurts, it hurts!"
"Calm down! Don't struggle!" Wei Lin roared anxiously.
The pain of being pulled on the scalp stimulated Jiang Ye's brain, as well as the surging icy river water. He gradually calmed down and hugged the log in his hand tightly, Wei Lin also loosened his hair: "You slow down, don't be in a hurry, there are still a lot of people who don't know how to water, the general won't let us pass quickly, You listen to me."
Wei Lin swam to his side very flexibly, and Jiang also seemed very weak at the moment. He started kicking his legs naturally in the water. If he only relied on the support of the log, he would not be able to calm down at all.
"You hold the log, then flatten your body and try to kick your legs slowly."
Jiang also did as he was told.
He tried to float his legs so that he could lie on the water with the help of a log, but as soon as his legs stopped working, he started to panic and failed several times. Wei Lin comforted him again, and at this moment, something suddenly grabbed Wei Lin's leg: "My feet!!! There are water ghosts!!"
This exclamation made Jiang lose his sense of proportion and struggled to swim to the shore. At this moment, a man emerged from the water and shouted at Wei Lin with a hilarious face, "Haha, Big Brother Wei, it's me. I!"
Jiang Ye and Wei Lin breathed a sigh of relief as soon as the voice came out, it turned out to be the little bastard Jia Er.
After calming down, Wei Lin flexibly swam to Jia Er's side, grabbed his head, and shoved it into the river: "I'll let you scare me! Drink some water to calm down, you!"
Jia Da also swam over from the front: "You guys are playing, let's go!"
Jiang also looked up, and sure enough, under the darkness of the night, it was vaguely visible that the large army had already swam a considerable distance.
"Let's hurry." Jiang also said.
Jia Da and Jia Er swam to Jiang Ye in tacit understanding: "We will help you!"
Wei Lin nodded: "Okay, you guys take it forward, I'll watch from behind."
"..." Jiang did not refuse. He understood that in this situation, everyone should obey the arrangement. In more than a month of life in the military camp, he fully understood one thing - here, there is no choice but to accept the help of comrades in arms, in order not to drag others down.
This made Jiang Ye hesitate to talk a lot, because it was his nature to talk, and he was not used to the help of others all the time; and it was because he finally understood that his eloquence had no effect in this place.
Jia Da Jia Er grabbed the log that Jiang Ye was holding in one hand, and the two moved hand in hand with a very fast speed. Even with Jiang Ye, they were not much slower than others. After about a few swims, Jiang Ye's fear of water gradually disappeared. He tried to swing his legs and let himself swim to reduce their stress.
Wei Lin happened to see it from behind, and he said aloud, "Just like this, just swing your legs like this, and leave the rest to us."
Jiang didn't speak, he was trying his best to make himself swim.
Wei Lin was in the water and was very flexible. He didn't keep watching behind Jiang Ye, but sometimes swam to the front to make a joke, and sometimes swam to the back and looked at Jiang Ye, for fear that something might go wrong with him.
Launching from the vicinity of Yanhangu and swimming to the south of Hanzhou, it happened to be downstream, which also relieved everyone's pressure. Some veterans who are familiar with water know that it will not be so easy when they come back, especially with no Teammates who know water will be even more difficult.
About an hour later, Xue Ziqin led the way ashore. The line behind him didn't stretch very long. The soldiers who went ashore first stood on the shore and pulled up the people behind one by one.
This solar term came up from the water, and the whole body was wet, it was really cold, and everyone was shivering.
Wei Lin and Jiang Ye were at the end of the team, and Zhao Zhinan went ashore early and was waiting for them.
Jia Da Jia Er touched the shore, let go of Jiang Ye's hand, and the two quickly climbed up, ready to pick up Jiang Ye. Jiang also didn't realize that he could step on the river bed with his legs, still holding the log, Jia Da Jia Er reached out his hand to pick him up at the same time, maybe his brain twitched, Jiang also let go of the log and grabbed their hands.
In the action of loosening and grasping, the log continued to float away along the current. Jiang also lost his buoyancy and panicked in an instant. He struggled in the water and wanted to call for help, but when he opened his mouth, he murmured when he drank water. He poured into his mouth: "Save... cough... save..."
Wei Lin was already ready to go ashore. Hearing the sound, he immediately swam to Jiang Ye's side and hugged his waist.
Being trapped in the waist by an unknown object in the water, Jiang also struggled even more vigorously. Wei Lin's heart is not good, this drowning person cannot be rescued casually. It is best to hug his chest so that his hands can't reach him. Otherwise, it is easy to be pressed by the panicked drowning person. go down.
Sure enough, Jiang also caught Wei Lin, so he dragged Wei Lin down uncontrollably, so that he could take a breath from the surface of the water, Wei Lin was held down by him in the water. Wei Lin had no choice but to break away from Jiang Ye's hand first, then swam over to grab Jiang Ye's hair and tug at it, "It's me!"
Jiang was also in pain. Wei Lin's voice came into his ears. He hugged Wei Lin completely out of instinct. He hugged him very tightly. He was wrapped around Wei Lin's back, and his hands were tied to Wei Lin waist.
Wei Lin's voice calmed him a lot, but his actions made Wei Lin unable to calm down.
He didn't know what he was holding in his hand, but Wei Lin clearly felt it. He kicked his legs again by the shore and said, "It's alright, it's alright, you can step on the shore, you let go first..."
Na Jiang was also frightened by the drowning just now, and had no intention of letting go.
Wei Lin had no choice but to tug at his hair again: "Let go!"
He added in a low voice, "You've caught Lao Tzu hard!"
This farce didn't last long, and in just a few breaths, Wei Lin got Jiang ashore, and he fell to the ground panting heavily. People who have never been drowning can't imagine the sense of fear on the edge of life and death. Jiang also has no time to think that he seems to have touched Wei Lin's private parts just now. Too embarrassing.
Xue Ziqin was not in a hurry to continue his action, there were still about two hours before dawn. When he decided to do this, he had already arranged a scout to inquire about the situation. He looked up at the sky, and estimated the time in his heart. Then, while the soldiers were resting, they found the tree marked by the scout before, dug a bundle under the tree, and tied it directly to his chest.
"Have you had enough rest?" Xue Ziqin asked in a low voice. The base of the city wall was very quiet at night, and the slightest sound could be heard clearly. All the soldiers nodded, Xue Ziqin counted the number of people, and there were no few people, so he said: "After entering the city in a while, four of them will be together. Team, you two come here, I have other tasks to explain." He stretched out his hand and pointed at the two veterans, "Hurry up and divide the others, I will go up first, and then you will grab the rope ladder and come up, do you understand?"
"Understood!"
"Be quiet! Wei Lin, Jiang Ye, and Zhao Zhinan, team up with me. Remember, you only have time for a cup of tea, so you have to move quickly and get up the rope ladder immediately when you see it coming down."
After speaking, Xue Ziqin took the lead and walked under the city wall. He looked up and could barely see some depressions in the city wall by the starlight - these were all left by the scouts sent on the wall earlier.
Xue Ziqin complimented the scout's work well in his heart. He lifted his breath lightly, and looked like he jumped with ease, and then climbed up the city wall. His movements didn't stop at all. With strength, he climbed higher and higher, and in the blink of an eye he reached the top of the city wall.
The people in Xia Di were in awe, no one dared to chat at this time, and could only watch the general's figure disappear from their sight.
Xue Ziqin climbed up the city wall. This place was designed and there happened to be an observation deck. He immediately hid in the blind spot in the direction of the approaching person, hiding at the corner. The time was just right, and two patrolling soldiers in the distance were walking towards Xue Ziqin's hiding place. He held his breath and listened to the footsteps of the other party, waiting for the other party to come. The city wall was dark, and the two soldiers were very relaxed and chatting.
"The girl from Yixianglou is really good!"
"That's natural... However, you still dare to go to the kiln, the general won't scold you to death if he finds out."
"Today, have a good time."
"Xuanguo's side is already eager to move, and it's still idle."
"Look at that Xuanguo, the army has been stationed for two months, do you dare to move?"
The two of them didn't notice anything unusual, and they were talking nonsense word by word, which was convenient for Xue Ziqin. Seeing that the two were away from him, ten steps, eight steps, five steps... It was too late to say that, Xue Ziqin suddenly jumped out from the side, without a trace of unnecessary movement, one hand grabbed the throats of the two of them, attacking quickly and accurately, Let the opponent have no room to struggle.
Their throats were tightly clasped, and the two of them couldn't even make a sound. What's more, they didn't expect that there was someone on the city wall.
One of them stretched out his hand to fire the flare in his arms to remind the enemy to attack. But how could such a big move hide from Xue Ziqin's eyes. He, Xue Ziqin, had been on the battlefield at the age of thirteen, and they knew how they would react. When he exerted force on his wrist, the two fingers holding his throat turned outwards—this was Xue Ziqin. One of his killer moves, also taught by the old man himself, kills him in one hit without leaving a trace.
He let go of his hand, and the two fell limply to the ground, breathless.
Xue Ziqin didn't even look at the two corpses, he directly opened the bag hanging on his chest, and pushed down the rope ladder prepared in advance. Immediately grab the rope ladder and climb up.
According to what Xue Ziqin had agreed before, the two climbed up first, helped Xue Ziqin grab the ladder, and let the people behind them come up quickly one by one.
"Put it on," Xue Ziqin took advantage of this time to take off the clothes from the corpse, "Continue your inspection. These two people will pick us up shortly before dawn during this inspection."
"Yes!"
"The rest of the people come down with me, in groups of four, veterans and recruits are mixed together, and the veterans are in command. When you go to the city, just grab it, just set it on fire, and don't hurt anyone. What you grab is yours, go up the city wall before dawn, the other two People will respond!" Xue Ziqin arranged quickly, "Do you understand?"
"clear!"
