Chapter 220 The morning light shining in the dark night

The night in Liangchengang was still the same as usual. From time to time, some beasts howled from the surrounding dense forests, and the most distinctive one was the deciduous wolf.It does not have the ferocity and team spirit of the maple leaf wolf, but they are still the most common hunters in this forest.

Under the dim moonlight, more than a dozen figures kept moving and flashing in the forest.

Yi Xifeng looked at the three people leading the team in front of the team, and couldn't help recalling what Qingzhu and others had explained in the big tent.

"Ji Rentu will definitely carry out a night attack tonight, and we will also fall into a passive position. And will the opponent choose to attack in a night battle, or feint to harass? No one is sure of winning this game between fiction and reality." Middle-aged tour guide Team Shan said solemnly.

The tall, thin, middle-aged man standing next to the sand table continued, "So, we are going to assign you a rather difficult task."

Zhang Shiyan and Zhou Di looked at each other, and they both saw the hint of probing in their eyes. Obviously, they had already guessed what the task Zhao Yunming was talking about.

Qingzhu explained: "As soon as night falls tonight, you will leave this camp, sneak into the surrounding dense forest, and wait for the opportunity to attack the enemy's camp at night!"

As soon as these words came out, the 12 people all gasped.

Qi Chengcheng scratched his head, wondering: "Didn't you say that the enemy will attack at night? Why did you ask us to attack each other at night?"

Obviously Doubi Boy is young after all, and he doesn't know much about these battlefields.But Teng Snake at the side saw him asking, so he explained:

"There is a saying in the art of war, war is like a game of chess, it is better to lose a piece than to lose the first one! Since the enemy wants to kill them at midnight, then we will kill them one step ahead! And the moonlight is dim tonight. There are 12 of you in a group, and you have a hidden figure." , will definitely be able to avoid the eyes and ears of the enemy."

……

Yi Xifeng came back to his senses, looking at his companions, he was somewhat excited.

Soon the group came to the edge of a dense forest, from which they could see the whole picture of Ji Rentu's cavalry camp.At this time, Zhang Yanyan said softly: "Sure enough, brother Bodang has rich experience in the jungle, and he can find such a good place."

Wang Bodang smiled and said nothing.After all, as a hunter since he was a child, he is better at such things as guarding and observing in the jungle than other people present.

Zhou Di looked at the hourglass he was carrying with him, and calculated the time, he still had to wait for more than an hour before reaching the hour.I believe these black armor soldiers, even if they carry out a night attack tonight, they will have to wait until after midnight.

"Xiaoxiao, you go to check the situation around the camp. Zhao Long, you go too." The young man with Fang Tianji on his back ordered in a low voice.

The ponytail girl frowned, and said in a deep voice, "I can do this kind of thing by myself. I'm more used to acting alone."

Zhao Long also frowned and looked at Fifth Xiaoxiao, but he didn't say too much nonsense, just nodded and said: "Okay, let's split up."

After all, the two did not speak much, and the figure had disappeared in place.

Lin Fenghuo curled his lips and said, "These two people are really good, they are both people who don't talk too much!"

The unruly Linley narrowed his eyes and glanced at the three leading young men, but didn't say much.

On the contrary, Li Xintian, who has always been quiet, smiled lightly and said, "These two will become good friends in the future!"

Yi Xifeng looked at the fair-skinned girl beside her, not knowing what she bases her judgment on, but Zhong Lingxi who was behind her understood the girl's thoughts and coughed lightly twice.

Naturally, Lu Huahua didn't care about the reactions of the people behind her. As one of the three captains of this operation, she was the absolute main force for the deployment of the night attack.

Seeing that everyone has quieted down, the short-haired girl said with her unique magnetic voice: "Wait a while, if they haven't acted yet, we will strike first!"

After all, Lu Huahua is a foreign warrior, and she has done a lot of fighting for this kind of battle.Looking at the crowd behind her, she couldn't help but feel a little amused, each of these people really has specialties.

………………Dividing line………………

A group of black armored cavalry led by Ji Rentu built this big camp. Although it was just a marching camp, its specifications and defensive facilities were no worse than the huge camp on Liangchengang.

However, taking into account the familiarity with the surrounding dense forest environment, the people in this camp are naturally far inferior to Liangchengang.But in just a few hours, a camp for 1000 people was built, and there were still [-] horses to take care of.

You know, the daily food consumption of a thousand cavalrymen can catch up with the consumption of nearly [-] infantrymen.Normally, a horse's daily fodder is equivalent to the rations of four ordinary soldiers.Of course, when it comes to this, someone will ask, don’t all horses eat grass?How can it be compared with others?

In fact, war horses not only eat hay, but also various beans that really allow them to withstand long-distance raids.Someone who is good at appraising horses has long said that a man has no flesh and no strength, and a horse can run without beans.To put it simply, if a man fights without eating meat, he will not be able to use his strength, while a horse will not be able to run fast if he follows the man in battle without eating beans.

Calculated in this way, this temporary camp is indeed much larger than the camp on Liangchen Hill.

However, the larger the camp, the more flaws will be exposed.Zhao Long looked at the camp in front of him and the patrolling black armored soldiers, the young man dodged and slipped in.

Although he successfully sneaked in at this time, he still didn't dare to relax at all. From the observation outside the tent just now, it is not difficult to find that the general leading the army this time is indeed a leading talent.Although the camp was poorly defended, the patrolling black armored soldiers were different from shift to shift.

There was a time difference of [-] breaths between the first patrol and the second, and the next time the two patrols alternated, this time turned out to be [-] breaths.And in the next shift, it becomes fifteen breaths...

You never know when the next patrol will arrive.

Fortunately, Zhao Long has the unique "Dragon Eye" stunt, so his insight in the dark is better than ordinary warriors, and naturally he is much better than these soldiers who are only a little better than ordinary people.

Finally sneaked in without any risk.

At this time, there was still an hour before Zishi, and apart from the patrolling teams in twos and threes, there were also many black armored soldiers gathered together to mutter something.

It is not difficult to see that the atmosphere in the big camp tonight is much more depressing than in the past.In Yao Jingshun's vanguard battle in the afternoon, more than 100 people from his side died on the battlefield, shocking a thousand black armored soldiers.

"I don't even believe it when I say that I beat him to death, but Yao Qijiang will lose!"

"Hey, I didn't expect it at first, but Yinren Village also has a Demon-Breaking Crossbow. It seems that this battle is not easy to fight."

"Yes, I heard that there will be an operation tonight. Our captain said it, and the higher-ups ordered it. The clothes will not be undressed, and the horse will not be unsaddled!"

"That's right, we've heard that too."

……

After everyone expressed their views on this afternoon's battle, some people also talked about tonight's night raid mission.It's just that no one noticed that a man also wearing black armor lowered the brim of his hat and listened to the speeches of the people around him.

The other men in black armor who were present came over to say hello to him, but found that this man didn't pay much attention to him, and he didn't look like a troublesome person with two iron knives stuck in his waist. People come to bother him again.

This person is none other than Zhao Long who sneaked into the enemy camp.

As expected by the boy with two swords, Ji Rentu's iron cavalry really planned to attack tonight, and judging by the momentum, it shouldn't be too small.

However, he didn't get all the information Zhao Long wanted, so he decided to investigate further.

Time passed bit by bit, and soon most of the soldiers in the camp returned to their barracks. Although there would be battles in the second half of the night, they could rest for a while at this time, and they would be more energetic in night battles.

Knowing this moment, Zhao Long secretly found a higher tent, stood on the top of the tent, and had a panoramic view of the entire camp.

At this time, most of the camps were pitch-black. After all, the soldiers would sleep in the camps at night, and they would not light lamps and boil oil to read books on the art of war.Anyone whose tents are still brightly lit at this point must be the barracks of middle and high-level officers.

Zhao Long found a tent with lights on the edge of the camp, and restrained his internal strength, but the blue light loomed in his eyes.

Even among the twelve masters of martial arts, the boy with two swords is outstanding in his ability to control his internal energy.At this time, he used his powerful soul control ability to forcibly suppress the fluctuation of his inner strength in his body.

"Damn! Hu Qingzheng! You are playing me! What kind of camp is no more than a hundred feet! The big camp on Liangchengang is enough for a square of three hundred feet! Also, the Ji people slaughtered you, an old fox. After losing the battle, they assigned me to this bird A place that doesn't shit? They have a magic crossbow, but you, as the coach, don't know it, and you are responsible for the lives of more than 100 of my subordinates!"

Yao Jingshun roared with red eyes. This time, the black armored cavalry will be the vanguard of the two attacks on Yinren Village. It was an extremely coveted job.It's a pity that at this time, this incident has become the laughing stock of all the soldiers under Ji Shenfu's command.

After two consecutive defeats, no matter what the reason was, General Yao's path to joining the army would indeed be blocked in the future.

At this time, a confidant soldier outside the camp came in with a bow, and said in a deep voice: "My lord, the general sent someone to send an order to attack Liangchengang at midnight tonight. This time..."

Speaking of which, the black armored soldier hesitated for a moment, but quickly raised his head to glance at his lord, and then added: "This night attack is led by General Ji himself."

"Crack! Crash!" A case was overturned on the ground, and Yao Jingshun said in a cold voice: "In this night attack, our troops have an absolute advantage, and the enemy is clear and we are dark, so we are already invincible." ! This kind of thing, he thought of himself! Hmph, old thief!"

The black armored soldier who bowed his head had to bury his head deeper.Gossiping in the army is also divided, for a penniless pawn like him.Give him 1 guts, and he wouldn't dare to say that his coach is wrong.

However, what the two people in the camp did not know was that there was a young man with a stern face standing outside their tent, listening to the conversation between them.

……

Soon, the news reached Zhou Di. The young man with the halberd looked at the note in his hand and murmured, "It's three o'clock? Time is a little tight!"

The ten people present quickly discussed and started the next night attack mission.

……

The midnight cold wind blew across the ridge of Liangchengang, and then into the big camp of Liangchengang. It was already midnight, and the bonfires in the camp had already been extinguished, and the tents where the strong men were resting were also pitch black.

However, there was indeed no one in the big tent at this time. They did not go to sleep, but hid behind the camp wall. They stared at the enemy camp in the distance, waiting for the upcoming night battle.

"Is the news reliable?" Teng Snake asked worriedly.

Obviously, Liangchen Gang was somewhat passive in response to this night attack. If the enemy did not come overnight, then when the next day dawned, his own side's disadvantage would be more obvious.

"Hmph! They have to come if they come, or they have to come if they don't come." Zhao Yunming squinted his eyes and said.

Ji Rentu Iron Cavalry camp.

The black armored soldiers in the camps everywhere were woken up by their captains and corporal leaders, and hurriedly lined up in the school grounds.

But before they went to the horse farm behind the camp to move the horses over, a bright sword light cut straight towards the handsome flag in the center of the camp like a shooting star piercing the sky!

"Qingming Morning Light Sword!"

A young man's shout resounded through the silent school grounds, but soon a huge figure broke out from a tent!

"Hmph! How dare you be presumptuous with mere cultivation!"

It wasn't until the sword light, as bright as the morning light, approached, that everyone present could clearly see the huge figure who had just blocked it, wearing a blue iron armor!

This person is one of Ji Rentu's four cavalry generals, Hu Qingzheng.

The strong man like a meat ball hastily responded, and only had time to blast the sword light. Although it barely shattered the sword light, the huge force of the rebound still sent the fair boy flying.

After a brief reaction, all the black armored soldiers in the field raised their magic crossbows and aimed at the young man who was making a sneak attack.

Yi Xifeng wasn't too surprised to see someone blocking them, after all, the handsome flags in every barracks are the lifeblood of the army.In normal times, if there is no war, even if it is blown away by the wind, it is not a big deal.

But at this time, when the battle is just around the corner, if the commander-in-chief flag is chopped off, it will be a devastating blow to the morale of the soldiers.

But before everyone reacted, just like responding to Yi Xifeng's bright sword light, the racecourse behind the camp suddenly caught fire!

"No! It's water! It's water!"

"Damn it, where's the horse guard? Are all these trash just for nothing?"

……

The arena immediately fell into chaos.

You know, for a general marching camp, the camps are not far apart, but for fire prevention, the camp is also divided into five camps: front, rear, left, right, and middle, and they are divided by ravines. First, it is beneficial to management, and most importantly, it is beneficial to fire prevention.

Originally, the back camp was caught in fire, but the soldiers in the front camp should not be so uneasy. What really made them feel uneasy was the horses in the back yard, which were the heart of this group of cavalry.

Because once it loses its strong mobility, even if the Demon Breaking Crossbow can withstand a round of attacks from the opponent, once it is approached by the opponent.They are still bound to die.

However, compared to ordinary soldiers, the Jade Cavalry General is more worried about the response of the rear battalion, because until now, they have not sent any message for help.

In other words, before the incident happened, all the guards in the rear battalion might have been killed!

"Are they all assassinated?!"

Hu Qingzheng murmured in disbelief.
