The desert sky with clear sky is rarely covered with thick dark clouds. In the sky twenty miles west of Baiyan Rock, countless vultures hovering, clamoring to summon companions in the sky to have a great meal in this winter when food is lacking. The water source on the north side of Baiyan Rock has been given a new name "Sweet Water Puddle" by the soldiers of the Ponu Army. The Ponu Army opened the ice layer to get water and cook. This small water source actually had a faint sweet aftertaste.

It was quite difficult to build fortifications. In order to store the ammunition carried in this battle, Fei Jin ordered a two-meter-high guard wall on the north side of the fortress. Two percent of the ammunition and food were placed in the guard wall as a secondary reserve for the Slave Army during the battle. What annoyed Fei Jin was that He Yushu, the deputy general of the artillery team who followed him this time, did not carefully count the * he carried. When he arrived at the "Sweet Shuipu" position, he found that there were actually ten boxes of high-saltitude*. They did not attack the Uygur camp, and it was useless to set fire to use these ** he set fire to the fire.

Fei Jin actually had a good relationship with He Yushu. If He Yushu had not contradicted the Chief of Staff Gu Xin on the Shaanxi battlefield and was sent to the Dead Soldiers' camp by Marshal Zhang, he might have been the artillery team leader today. He Yushu led the way to explode the wall of the female real Huangqi Village in the Hasensumu battlefield, and first brought three dead soldiers to control the explosion gap. After the war, he received a third-class gold medal for his military achievements, and once again became the deputy chief of the artillery team of the Central Cluster. Marshal Zhang handed Fei Jin this time to block the enemy's retreat. Fei Jin specifically asked Marshal Zhang, a veteran artillery team, to come, but he still made mistakes.

Everything has its pros and cons. Although He Yushu brought the wrong ammunition, he liked to make friends in the Po Slave Army, so he actually found Liu Xiucai of the baggage camp to come to ten boxes of new models of Zhang Dashuai's laboratory. Originally, this thing was to be rated to Tian Peng's mountain troops, but He Yushu had a big face and was going to come to ten boxes of **. On the way he came, this new model was worth ten to fifteen ordinary models. Fei Jin had never seen such a model. He thought to himself that he hoped that this shell would be as magical as He Yushu told.

Now the fortifications of the Pou Nu Army have been formed and are being carved in detail. The outermost trench is two and a half meters deep and three meters wide. There is a guard wall made of rattan on the inside of the trench, and there is a wall of two feet high on the inside of the guard wall. The reason why this guard wall is not high as the outermost defense line of the Pou Nu Army is to prevent the enemy from breaking through the defense line as a hidden place. The musket soldiers of the Pou Nu Army here will use lying-position shooting tactics to reduce the area of ​​close shooting by the enemy archers. The inner ring guard wall is two meters high, and a wall stack is also built, with four feet high, which makes it convenient for the Pou Nu Army to take a standing shooting method.

The innermost fortification is the first built giant stone platform. Here are light crossbows for mountain troops. In front of the crossbows are the defense line for more than 600 Jinlang Camp kids and 200 veterans. Most of the newly grown children of the Golden Wolf Camp have never been on the battlefield. Fortunately, there are more than 100 older children and veterans who have fought wars, and these children will also grow up in the war. The north guard wall on the giant stone platform is slightly lower than the platform. This place is not only where ammunition is piled up here, but also where the soldiers are treated with the soldiers.

The most leisurely person in the Pou Nu Army before the war was the follower's doctor. These doctors were not treated well with serious illnesses and difficult diseases, and some were better than other doctors, that is, they were not only able to open their stomachs, but also good at continuing broken bones. According to rumors, these young doctors under twenty years old were all full of blood debts. The doctors who had not used knives for the captives of the Tartars were almost still lying in the medical school. The three doctors and five trainee doctors not only rode camels during the march, but their supplies occupied 17 camels.

When the soldiers of the Pou Nu Army and the auxiliary soldiers set up camp, even Fei Jin, the council, had to do rough work. These doctors were full and picked up their teeth with branches and relaxed their spirits. It was said that General Zhang had an order that the Sui Jun was not allowed to do rough work. The doctors' hands were very expensive. If anyone dared to let them work, the troops would not be sent to the Sui Jun. The soldiers of the Pou Nu Army all knew a simple truth. They had to rely on mutual cover of their companions and brothers on the battlefield to survive, but if they were injured on the battlefield, they had to ask for help from the Sui Jun. Therefore, these doctors were very respected by everyone in the area controlled by the Pou Nu Army and even the Pou Nu Army.

Take Wu Shaohe, a ward who was in the army this time, for example, not only was he a student of Zhang Dashuai, but he was also one of the most skilled doctors in the Medical Department. Zhang Dashuai also gave him a nickname "Two Knife". Wu Shaohe's ability to use swords to save people on the battlefield was even better than Jia Youfu, the head of the Medical Department, and it seemed that he was only a little worse than Xu Qiang. Wu Shaohe's best ability was to connect the arms and thighs that were knocked away on the battlefield, and he could connect the arms and muscles and bones again on the battlefield. Although the arm that was connected after he was recovered, the thighs could not do heavy work, which was a hundred times better than missing legs. Of course, only Zhang Dashuai and the two big men of the Medical Department dared to call this. Others, including the commander Hu Ming, the head of the Chinese Roller, would respectfully call him Doctor Wu when he met Wu Shaohe.

When everyone was busy, Wu Shaohe didn't even say hello to Fei Jin, so he called more than a hundred kids to help him build a tent for treatment. Before this was over, he was still left by the hundred kids by him, saying that someone needed to carry a stretcher on the battlefield. Fei Jin could only smile bitterly at this. He also knew that this big doctor with a fuzzy beard was to take care of those weak kids. Anyway, the entire fortification had been formed, so Fei Jin let Wu Shaohe do it.

This time, in order to bring more military funds, the slave army did not bring more than two tents with the Military Medical Office. Fei Jin, who was a scout, was used to spending nights in the wild without tents. After patrolling the entire camp, he was about to go to the shelter in the east to rest. As the sky was getting late, the auxiliary soldiers burned fire to make dinner, and a strong aroma of meat floated over the camp. Fei Jin smelled the aroma of meat and looked back at the northwest in the afterglow, where more and more vultures gathered in the sky.

Fei Jin sighed in his heart that there is still something wrong with the calculation! After the Pou Nu Army reached the "sweet puddle", the camels that were consigned with the army to transport military funds became useless. It is not a big deal for these thousands of camels to gather together. If the Pou Nu Army defeated the camels and the enemy seized them, it would increase the chance of the Uygur people running away. For this reason, Fei Jin ordered the sick camels and the slaughtered camels to be abandoned far away. How could it be that humans were not as good as the sky? Vultures had long discovered this delicious dish in the sky. Thousands of vultures hovered in the sky, and even a little experienced scout could guess that there must be a lot of meat there.

The whereabouts of the Pou Nu Army, which had been exposed in the sky, were discovered by the enemy for the past two days. Sure enough, five black wolf smokes were lit on the white rock hill south of the "Sweet Shui Puddle". The huge smoke pillar was bent by the cold wind, which also indicates that more than 100,000 enemies were approaching the Pou Nu Army's position. Fei Jin stopped and looked south. After a while, he saw a hundred scouts of the Pou Nu Army running back on horseback. The smoke and dust raised by more than a hundred war horses were in contrast with the huge sand wall formed behind them.

This sand wall can actually compete with the strong wind, gradually approaching the "Sweet Pulp" position stationed by the Possess Army. Just as everyone was nervously watching the enemy approaching, the suffocating atmosphere, they heard the laughter and scolding of Wu Shaohe, a great doctor who had just been on the platform: "What a bunch of coyotes who have never seen the world. Look at your bears, they were all scared. I said, who did you take away the bellyband of the beautiful girl I treasured last night, and send it back to me tonight. If there is no such thing, my five girls don't have the energy to work. If I find out that it is a bastard, be careful that I will reverse your hands and feet!"

Wu Shaohe's screams and scolding made the tense atmosphere on the solidified battlefield collapse instantly, and the soldiers of the Pou Nu Army began to explore the gossip of the "two swords" Wu Shao and the great doctor. Fei Jin bowed to Wu Shaohe with a smile at this moment. Zhang Dashui's students were different. Although Wu Shaohe was a doctor, his morale-boosting style on the battlefield was comparable to Zhang Dashui. Wu Shaohe had participated in all the major battles of the Pou Nu Army next to Zhang Dashui. Not only did he see the enemy's corpses and blood, but he also saw the blood of the Pou Nu Army soldiers.

However, Fei Jin was not as calm as he showed. The momentum of the Uygur people today was comparable to the situation when the Jurchen old Nu Nurhaci besieged the Slave City several years ago. Fei Jin then deeply realized that it was difficult for Marshal Zhang at that time. At that time, more than 2 million strong enemies were in the forefront and most of them were strong soldiers. Without any foreign aid, the thirteen-year-old Marshal Zhang spent half a year to defeat two strong enemies. This time he faced the Uygur people, basically the old, weak, women and children, and the real soldiers could fight were only more than 300,000. Moreover, the reinforcements sent by Marshal Zhang this time must not be too far away, and Fei Jin's troops will be supported by the main army of the Slave Army.

The vultures in the northwest of "Sweet Water Puddle" have been scared away. The sunset like fire clouds in the sky is covered by dust fog. A strange sound like ghost howls in the south can be heard in the howling north wind. Even veterans on the battlefield cannot tell what the sound is. Just like a monster suppressed in hell for a long time, howling in anger and despair in the darkness. Tens of thousands of war horses rolled up their rumbling sounds, and were actually drowned by a dull rustling sound. This strange sound became clearer as the crowds of Uygur approached the "Sweet Water Puddle".

The sky was getting darker, and sparks appeared in the sand wall on the south. As the sparks became denser, the sand wall gradually turned into a fire wall. The flames soared into the sky made the stars dim and dull. At this point, the soldiers of the Pou Nu Army finally saw their opponents clearly, and hundreds of thousands of torches paved the thirty-mile horizon to the south of the "Sweet Water Puddle".
