Although she was only wearing a thin jacket, Song Hongxin was still sweating profusely. He waved the shovel in his hand and shoveled the snow on the ground into the basket. Then his soldiers under him built the snow onto the fortress. In a few days, his fortress wall, which could only accommodate more than one hundred people, became more than one foot thicker and grew by about a meter taller.

Pushing the shovel into the ground, Song Hongxin smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the wounds around the fortress that were dug east and west. "Okay, it's almost done. The village is almost done. Build the remaining snow into pieces and knock it tightly. This is a gift from God to us, so that we can make countless horse-rejecting, antlers, and blocking piles, and let the Donghu cavalry eat shit!" Song Hongxin's rude words made more than a hundred men laugh.

After another half a day, thousands of strange snowballs were formed around the village. The snowballs that were taller by one person were plastered with stars, forming a natural barrier. A night of cold wind could make these snowballs harder than stones.

Song Hongxing inspected the achievements of his brothers. Looking at the strange looks, he couldn't help laughing, "This is the bastard who made his facial features vividly? With this skill, don't you know how many more?"

"Company Commander, it's me! You're good at craftsmanship!" A young soldier jumped out, looking like he was not afraid of the company commander at all.

"The craftsmanship is good, especially the thing below is unique. It is a pillar that holds the sky. Xiao Haizi, you are strong in energy and blood. Is this guy your appearance every morning?" Song Hongxing pointed to the pillar between the snowman's hips and asked with a smile.

"Xiao Haizi's has not grown up yet, like an earthworm. There is such a majestic place. This is Xiao Haizi's imagination!" On the other side, a beard said with malicious intentions.

"You are like an earthworm, your beard, do you dare to take it out in front of everyone!" Xiao Haizi's face turned red.

"Just compete!" The bearded man pretended to untie his belt, but Xiao Haizi turned around and ran away, which made everyone laugh wildly. Looking at their bodies and ages, it must be incomparable.

"Let's go back to the village. I guess it's only two days before the Donghu barbarian is coming. Let's rest for two days to welcome these evil guests!" Song Hongxin was very satisfied with the relaxation of his brothers. Before the war, this relaxation represented everyone's high fighting spirit and determination to die.

Back in the village, everyone immediately changed into clothes that were already wet. After joining the Eastern Army, Song Hongxin's biggest and most intuitive feeling was that the equipment in each soldier was so good. He watched his brothers wear a hood that only exposed their eyes and put on a helmet. Although the thick cotton coat looked a little bloated, it was covered with a layer of leather armor and each handed with a pair of gloves. Even though the soldiers were dripping.

In the weather of ice, the handle of the knife and gun can still be held firmly. Looking at the dense bed crossbows densely spread on the village walls and the arm crossbows neatly arranged in the back, he couldn't help but sigh. Fighting power sometimes has nothing to do with the courage of the soldiers, but depends on the killing weapon in his hand. It should be his village with more than 100 people. The long-range weapons equipped were enough to equip half of the army in the former Yan State's standing army.

"Kill and Injury." This is the task assigned by the regiment commander Chen Bin to Song Hongxin. "Brother, I don't want to hide it from you. You are the front-line village. You are said to be light for life. If you can't come back alive, then I hope you can win ten times your enemy to fill your life."

"Die?" Song Hongxin smiled. He should have died long ago. It was already a big profit to live for more than ten years. In his heart, there has been a poisonous snake gnawing on his heart, making him restless day and night. At that time, he and a group of brothers were ordered to go to the mountains to capture a bandit. In the dense forests of the mountains, they were ambushed by the bandits, and the whole team was surrounded by bandits. He was the only one who was walking in front of the team as a sergeant. The bandits let him go and lured dozens of brothers behind him into the encirclement.

Over the years, Song Hongxin has been hating why he did not find the ambush of the enemy? His brothers believed in him so much, but he took them to death. After the battle broke out and his brothers fell into a hard battle, he did not turn back to rescue, but ran away shamefully.

In the end, dozens of brothers, except him, were destroyed on that mountain.

This is the biggest demon in his heart. In the next decade, it is this demonic obstacle that has made him restless. Whenever the night is late, those bloody brothers will always appear in their dreams.

When he went to the Donghu battle, he bravely moved forward, and rushed to the front in every battle. He wanted to use his courage, blood, or the enemy's head to prove that he was not a coward. He even wanted to fall on the way to charge and die under the enemy's knife. In this way, he had the face to meet the old brothers from the past, but his fate was so strange. He was not afraid of death or death, but every battle was safe and sound. Although he was covered in bruises, no one was fatal. The brothers around him fell down one by one, and he still lived well.

He had no gratitude, only deeper pain.

This time, he asked the task of guarding the village from the regiment commander Chen Bin. It was precisely because he had always been brave in fighting and was not afraid of death that Chen Bin also gave him this place with confidence.

"Ten times the enemy!" Thinking of Chen Bin's words, he couldn't help but laugh, "Old Chen really can give me some problems. I have more than one hundred people, ten times the number of people in Donghu. This task is a bit difficult."

A cold wind blew, and Song Hongxin shivered, his face shaking like a knife. Then he realized that he had left his mind, and he held the hood in his hand, but he didn't put it on. He smiled and put on the hood. A warm feeling arose from his heart. He strode to the wall of the village and shouted at his brothers: "Hey, let's take a rest, get water and pour the wall, let's make the village firmer."

Buckets of water were carried up and poured onto the snow wall outside. In an instant, it turned into a layer of shiny ice. After layer after layer, the soldiers tirelessly put a steel-like coat on their village wall.

The fortress is surrounded by ice and snow armor. In addition to the enhancement of defense, there is another more important advantage, which is to keep warm. In the past few days, the village has been much warmer than before.

After dinner, Song Hongxin sat on the highest tower in the fortress, looking into the distance. As a veteran of more than ten years, he always felt that war should break out in these few days.

"Beard, are you all ready?" He turned to look at the bearded man.

Beard nodded vigorously.

"How long can we last for food, water, firewood, crossbows, and these things?"

"A lot, as long as we are not attacked by the enemy, we can at least last for a month!"

"One month!" Song Hongxin smiled on his face, "It's really possible to pull ten times the enemy to fill his life! Beard, maybe tonight or tomorrow, there will be dense enemies around us. We can't see reinforcements, we can only fight alone. Are you afraid?"

"What's there to be afraid of!" The beard on the beard seemed to be harder one by one, "How many come, how many kill!"

Song Hongxin laughed, "Okay, that's it, beard, you can take a few people to seal the village gate later. Block it, water it and condense it. We will not go out anymore. Let's fight until the final victory or death."

"Yes, company commander!" Hu Zi nodded vigorously.

"Xiao Haizi, today's observation mission is left to you. I'll go to sleep for a while. Don't fall asleep. Be careful to look at your pillar and hold the sky!" She patted Xiao Haizi's shoulder vigorously, and Song Hongxing walked down the lookout building with a laugh.

That night, Song Hongxin slept very soundly. Those bloody comrades who often came to visit him in their dreams did not disturb him again. Instead, he dreamed that he was running wildly in the snow and ice, and chopping the Donghu people like a big knife in his hand cut leeks to the ground, and he went around one horse, so happy!

My war horse is so powerful that every step I step on, it seems to be shaking the earth.

The earth was shaking, and Song Hongxin opened his eyes, thrust his waist, and jumped up from the bed. Yes, the fort seemed to be shaking, as if a ground dragon was rolling. It was a movement created by the cavalry, thousands of cavalrymen. When Song Hongxin just stood up from the bed, the warning message was already ringing above the building.

The policeman's fortress immediately became boiling. More than 100 soldiers have been waiting for the battle these days. When they heard the police horn, everyone immediately rushed towards the wall with their guys. Song Hongxin followed everyone to the wall with them, while listening to their brothers shouting excitedly.

"Damn it, finally here."

"Kill all these barbarians, but I'm waiting to die."

"Fuck them."

More than a hundred soldiers rushed to the village wall, and the felt clothes on the crossbow were lifted up. Brand new and excellent bowstrings were taken out of the box, carefully installed them, and then shook the handle to install the huge crossbow arrows. After the improved crossbow of the East Army of the Conquest Army, the launch speed has been greatly improved.

Some soldiers squatted on the ground and were taking out small bowstrings from the box and installing them on the crossbow. This ghost weather is beneficial and naturally has its own disadvantages. For example, these bowstrings need to be carefully maintained, otherwise they will easily be damaged in this extremely cold weather, and these things are their biggest weapon to kill the enemy.

Song Hongxin stood above the city wall, still in the darkness in the distance, he could hear the sound of horse hooves like thunder, but he could not see the enemy's traces. He raised his head to the sky, and the snowflakes in the sky were more dense than during the day. Under the lights of the fortress, they were like dancing elves.
