The strongest soldier

Normally, the faster and more concealed the better when evacuating. Exposure means risk, but Luo Zheng did the opposite. He took the risk of exposure and went with the caravan, using the caravan to hide his identity. He didn't understand the language. Nightingale was solely responsible for the negotiations. As expected of a senior agent on the secret front, Nightingale gained the trust of the caravan with just a few words and reached cooperation. Luo Zheng and others walked in front of the caravan and were responsible for clearing the way.

The troops continued to advance. Wu Jin curiously caught up with Nightingale and asked, "It seems that the caravan has a lot of people and a lot of guns. Ordinary sand pirates can't do anything to them. How did you convince them?"

Luo Zheng also pricked up his ears curiously and listened. Nightingale smiled and explained: "It's very simple. I first made some insinuations to test out a few words. After knowing that there were many of them, I proposed to go together. We have someone to look after us on the way. In order to win their trust , I said that you were hired by me to protect me and smuggle me to neighboring countries. This kind of thing happens often in this country. Caravans sometimes secretly take people to smuggle people across. Plus we promised to go ahead, so they believed me."

"So that's it. Thanks to you, a local snake, who is familiar with the situation. If we big bosses came here, we would definitely not think of such a good excuse." Wu Jin smiled, looked at the nearly a hundred strong men with guns in the caravan behind him, and continued in a low voice: " This caravan is not simple, it should be considered a big caravan, right? The reason why you agreed to our agreement is that you don’t want to cause trouble and cause trouble. As long as we are not hostile, we should be able to go together. "

"It's true. Nearly a hundred armed men really don't need to be afraid of us, nor are they afraid of ordinary sand bandits. They can cross the desert on their own. But with our strength greatly increased, even the bigger sand bandits don't dare to provoke them. Two benefits, two harms if divided, they must also know this truth, and they don't want to provoke strong enemies for themselves, so they agreed. However, everyone should be careful in case this caravan attacks us." Luo Zheng whispered. warned.

"The possibility of taking action is high. The caravans are all trying to earn a living with their heads above their heads. These people are so bold that they can do anything. Just be careful." Nightingale also said in a deep voice.

"That makes sense, I'll pass on the order." Wu Jin agreed, and immediately contacted the troops through the headset, conveyed the order, and told everyone to be careful.

The team continued to move forward. Luo Zheng paid attention to the caravan behind him from time to time, observing their every move. Unknowingly, night fell. Everyone came to a sandy valley and found a place to stop and rest. The caravan following them also Stopping, the two groups of men and horses kept a distance of about one thousand meters. There was a buffer, so each other could feel more at ease. Luo Zheng observed the surrounding terrain while thinking about something.

The drunkard hurried over and said in a low voice: "Brother, the arrangements for the light and dark sentries have been made, and the rotations have been explained. Are you going to spend the night here?"

"Have you noticed anything weird about the caravan behind you?" Luo Zheng said suddenly.

"It's normal." The drunkard whispered in surprise. Seeing Wu Jin and Nightingale coming over, he nodded in greeting, relayed Luo Zheng's words, and finally said: "Wu Ju, did you find anything? Nightingale, what about you?"

"I can't tell." Nightingale shook her head and said.

"It doesn't seem like much on the surface. He didn't do anything radical when he came here, and he didn't say hello to us. It's as if he doesn't exist. It's nothing." Wu Jin said in surprise, suddenly thought of something, raised his eyebrows, and looked at him in surprise. Zhuo Luo Zheng said: "Who are you?"

Luo Zheng nodded. Wu Jin was indeed a veteran with rich combat experience. He thought a lot, and his face became ugly. The drunkard also thought of something. He looked at the caravan camping behind him with a shocked face. Only Nightingale did not react. She was surprised. He looked at the three people and asked, "What's wrong? Stop playing riddles. Can you tell me?"

"Of course. They are a caravan. They also saw that we have more than 60 people with guns. Our troops are not much smaller than them. How could ordinary caravans not be wary? How could they be so calm? There is only one explanation. They are not afraid at all. Another possibility is that we just don't want to scare us away." Wu Jin said in a deep voice, looking at Luo Zheng with a more worried look in his eyes, and added: "Do you want it?" He made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"Could it be that they want to eat us?" Nightingale is not stupid, she is clear-cut, and she also thought of a certain possibility, her face changed drastically, she looked at Luo Zheng and asked: "The black eats the black in the desert, swallowing up the employer and the traveling caravan." Things happen, they may very well do this, what should we do?”

"Don't worry, they are not ordinary caravans. Pay close attention to see if they have a lot of goods?" Luo Zheng whispered, his eyes sparkling with wisdom.

"They don't have a lot of goods. It looks like they are purchasing, not trafficking, no, no." Nightingale suddenly said, her face changed drastically, and when she saw everyone looking at her, she quickly explained: "The caravan can't be empty. Even if you go to the host country for purchasing, you will bring the goods for trading, there is no reason to make an empty trip, this is not common sense."

"They have a lot of camels, and they carry quite a lot of stuff. How do you know they don't have any goods?" The drunkard asked in surprise, looking at Luo Zheng.

"It's very simple. It takes more than twenty days to cross the desert. Although the things they brought can't be seen in the bags, assuming it is all food, half of it will be eaten by humans and camels. It is unknown what the remaining half is. Yes, with the transportation capacity of camels, they can definitely carry more goods, but they don't have it. Do they have no money to buy it or something else? This is the most important point. After a long trip, there is no reason to let the camels empty." Luo Zheng said in a deep voice.

"It makes sense. There is no reason to waste transportation capacity with so many camels. Also, have you noticed that these camels are very fast. They are not like camels purely for transporting goods, but more like camels used for fighting and transportation. Is it possible?" Wu Jin said His face became darker.

"Have you thought about it too?" Luo Zheng asked in surprise. Seeing Wu Jin nod, he looked at the drunkard and warned: "Notify me, the troops will be on alert secretly, and will evacuate quietly after a two-hour rest. There is no need for us to negotiate with this group." The team fights head-on and escapes first.”

"Are you saying that they might be sand pirates, deliberately dressing up as caravans and crossing the desert as traders to look for other caravans?" Nightingale also reacted and said in surprise.

"It's not impossible. It's definitely not possible for the sand thieves to come directly. They will let the caravan defend themselves in advance and use the identity of the caravan to find the target. Firstly, they can get close to the target and become familiar with the target's situation; secondly, they can take advantage of the sand thieves' sneak attack to attack suddenly. , the target was caught off guard, think about it, as long as we tell our whereabouts to the accomplices, the accomplices will rush up to kill us, the caravan will approach us in the name of rescue, and then suddenly kill us, who can stop us?" Luo Zheng said in a deep voice, his eyes Become grim.

"You bastard, are you so cruel?" The drunkard was shocked and said in a deep voice.
