Chapter 126 Sneak Attack
Ruan Qianren's face suddenly changed, and he stared at Baihua and Canglan County on the map.

Yunchui has always been the overlord of the land, and managing its huge land is enough for the emperor and ministers to be busy, and they really don't have much time to spend on these "barbarian lands" around them.

Otherwise, the Yanfeng Fortress would not only be built in Pingxi County, but thousands of miles west.

Otherwise, more than 40 years ago, there would no longer be the Five Southern Countries in the world, and it should be called the Five Counties in the South or the Five Counties in Nanfeng County.

"The Guanshang navy immediately boarded the ship and went to sea, and intercepted the Yunchui people going south at all costs. At the same time, they returned to the capital and reminded the king to guard against the East China Sea."

After finishing speaking, Ruan Qianren's eyes slid down and landed in the sea not far to the east of Nanfeng Capital.

Giant Turtle Island.

Although the name of the island is "giant", it is actually not big, and it is full of sand and rocks, so it is not suitable for living and farming.

But as long as Yunchui sent people to stop on the island, they would keep an eye on the capital and grain production areas in the west.Nanfeng had no choice but to move the capital or obediently proclaim himself a minister.

It's just a small island, and the rich Yunchui can definitely afford it if he wants to.

Ruan Qianren felt a moment of regret in his heart.

Knowing that the Starfall Legion had switched defenses to the south, he still sent someone to kill the tiger's beard?
They thought that Yun Chui would not have time to deal with matters in the south, and they just took the opportunity to take advantage of it, and at the same time, they could disgust Xingluoren.

This time I really can't eat and walk around.

It's just that Ruan Qianren was a little dazed again, and his gaze returned to Zhennan Pass again.

What kind of medicine did this old opponent Yuan Xingwen take wrongly?

He has been stationed at Zhennanguan for more than ten years, and he always likes to be quiet and not to move.

In the past, Nanfeng's spies and scouts only had to disguise themselves and go to Zhennanguan to check the situation, but no one paid any attention.Now they still beat drums to scare Huchouguan from time to time!

Is it true that those who are close to vermilion are red, and those who are close to ink are black?

Zhennanguan, the big tent of the Chinese army.

Yinbao, the military supervisor, also had this doubt.

He glanced at the south secretly, and bowed his hands politely.

"General Yuan, I have worked with you for 11 years. The general has always been diligent and conscientious in guarding the borders of the country, and I have seen it. Next year, my term will expire. After returning to the imperial capital, I will be a general. Good words."

He changed his tone: "At this moment of chaos, the general can't give Fang a bad look."

Yuan Xingwen polished his smooth sword calmly and calmly.

He smiled and shook his head: "Fang Jianjun speaks seriously. You can rest assured. This general is only for people to beat the drum occasionally, and has no other intention. When the term of office expires next year, it is guaranteed that Fang Jianjun can return to the imperial capital with ease."

"It's really just beating drums?" Fang Yinbao obviously didn't believe it.

His surname is Fang, he is the second master of the Yongchang Marquis Mansion, and his ancestors also used to be marquises on horseback.The reason why I went to Zhennanguan to be a supervisor is just a gold-plated experience.It's not like Eunuch Shao, a eunuch who has lived in the palace for a long time, can be fooled easily.

Yuan Xingwen was about to answer when there was a resounding "report" outside.

The messenger rushed in quickly, "General, the north gate of Hushou Pass is wide open. Tens of thousands of people are boarding the boat and preparing to go east to the sea."

"Understood, let them go." Yuan Xingwen said indifferently, and waved the messenger to rest.

"Don't be nervous. It is estimated that Nanfeng people are going to be pirates in Canglan County just like last time."

Fang Yinbao frowned.

He also knew what happened more than half a month ago, and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Canglan County, that's Yunchui's medicine warehouse. Now Nanfeng is going to sneak attack!" He almost jumped up, "Is the general so indifferent?"

Yuan Xingwen spread his hands innocently: "Could the supervisor have forgotten? Just now you reminded me not to act rashly."

"That's different." Fang Yinbao beat his chest angrily, "Your Majesty means that we should not take the initiative to provoke so as not to cause disputes between the two countries. Now that Nan Feng is coming to kill us, we naturally can't sit still and wait for death."

"That's good." Yuan Xingwen looked at him silently for a long while, then suddenly nodded and said, "All officers and men obey orders."

The generals in the room stood up loudly, "The subordinates are here!"

"At midnight tonight, send troops!"

----

It was getting dark, and the fog seemed to be thinner.

In the past two days, drums were beating and soldiers were dispatched. The continuous toss made the whole Hushou Mountain become dead silent, and it seemed that even the sounds of birds and animals had decreased a lot.

Ren Ning picked up the binoculars and looked towards Hushou Valley, and could vaguely see Nanfeng's gang leaders carrying torches to carry food and grass.

"Pass down the order. When the hourglass breaks, it means that the child's hour has come. We will attack according to the original plan."

The crowd cheered.

Because I brought a raincoat to block the rain and fog, I didn't feel cold after ambush for a day.But the mosquitoes in the mountains are really disturbing, and many soldiers almost scratched their faces.Now that they were finally able to leave this ghostly place, everyone couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Now that he had made a decision, Ren Ning stopped thinking about it and went to sleep.

Time passed little by little.

When the hourglass was about to break, Xiao Gang next to him was hesitating whether to wake him up, but Ren Ning had already raised his head.

He looked up to the sky while arranging his weapons.

The dark night sky is full of stars, and the fog seems to be thinner again.The sky in the north was quiet, and there was no sign of the Cloud Piercing Arrow rising.

suddenly!

Boom boom boom!
The war drum that Hushou had closed was beating again, and it was different from the afternoon at noon, this time the drum was beating more and more intensely, and there were even countless marching shouts.

finally come.

Ren Ning relaxed and tightened again, but after glancing at the hourglass, he ignored it.

"Go!" He waved his big hand, rushed to the edge of the cliff and cast the rope without hesitation, and quickly slid to the bottom of the valley.

The entire Fifth Battalion had been trained in this way.At this moment, seeing that Qian Chang had come down, everyone rushed to get up from the mud, rushed to the edge of the cliff and dropped the rope, and then descended.

Landing on the ground, Ren Ning looked around.

The fog at the bottom of the valley was thicker, and the wind lanterns near and far were only faintly visible.

He directly ignored the many warehouses, and rushed directly to Taniguchi with Lei Er, Xiao Gang and a hundred soldiers.

When passing by the warehouse, from time to time, everyone would meet some busy Nanfeng gang leaders.

It's just that the fog at the bottom of the valley is too thick, and it's impossible to tell whether it's an enemy or a friend.But as long as the opponent has a strong mosquito repellent powder, Ren Ning will not hesitate to draw a knife and kill him quickly.

For a time, the entire Husorrow Valley was filled with screams.

The Nanfeng defenders who were defenseless and couldn't recognize the enemy and us were killed instantly.

"General, there seems to be a large army from the north attacking Hushou Pass." Lei Er said as he chopped off the head of a soldier from the South Feng Dynasty.

"That would be the best." Ren Ning nodded.

He also heard the panic when Hushou closed the front door, "Then we don't have that much pressure on our side."

While speaking, a group of people rushed to the entrance of the valley, chose a relatively narrow place, and immediately set up defensive fortifications.

The past two days have been rainy and foggy, and the drums are beating and the drums are making noise from time to time. The sentinels on the left and right mountains are numb and tired.When the one or two battalion commanders rushed in with their men, they had already been brutally killed before they even realized what happened.

Without ordering, the first 500 people of each battalion immediately brought hoes and shovels and other tools to widen the road to the bottom of the valley, so that the fifth battalion could retreat as soon as possible after they succeeded.

The last 500 people set up their positions, drew their bows and aimed at the passage from Hushouguan, and were ready to shoot arrows as soon as the enemy came within range.

And the bottom of the valley behind him was already crackling with brilliant flames.

Huchou Pass

Someone rushed into the big tent.

"General, I don't know if Husorrow Valley was attacked or caught fire. There was a big fire inside. But the police posts on the left and right mountains did not make a sound. General Shan has already heard the news and brought his subordinates to check."

When Ruan Qianren heard the panic, he hurriedly rushed out of the big tent, looked up to the west.

Sure enough, the flames flickered in the direction of Husorrow Valley, and half the valley had already been illuminated red.

"Bastard!" He yelled, "It's clearly an enemy attack, so why bother!"

The past few days have been rainy and foggy, and the air is so humid that water can be pinched out, so it is not so easy to catch fire.

"Immediately send [-] people over there. We must put out the fire and the sneak attacking Yunchui people."
