The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 1550 Special Scout

Shi Kaiji couldn't help being surprised when he heard Liu Zhuwen say that he was going to go on an expedition tonight, "Isn't Liu Shuai planning to let the soldiers under his command take a rest in Languan?"

Liu Zhuwen smiled and said: "Soldiers are precious, we have to take down Jingzhao Mansion before Chai Liren, and now we don't have much time left."

Shi Kaiji knew this clearly, and said, "I'm just worried that the soldiers and horses will not be able to withstand such a trek..."

Liu Zhuwen said: "I'll let them rest a few more times on the way."

Then the two had to study the strategy of how to attack Jingzhaofu Road in the command post.

Although it was Liu Zhuwen himself who proposed to lead the army to attack Jingzhao Mansion, he obviously would not make a decision with one word.This is a taboo in officialdom as well as in the military.

He asked Shi Kaiji to take out the map of Jingzhaofu Road, spread it on the extremely long wooden table in the room, and the two began to study it.

The southern part of Jingzhaofu Road is quite barren, but the northern part is full of counties and towns.There are eight counties, and there are as many as twenty towns.

On the way from Languan to Jingzhaofu, there are Lantian County, Baqiao Town and Mingdu Town.Lintong County and Ziwu Town are not far from Jingzhao Mansion.

In the northwest of Jingzhao Mansion, there is also the ancient capital Xianyang.

Liu Zhuwen led the army to go, if he did not capture Jingzhao Mansion at an extremely fast speed, he would inevitably face the siege of large armies from the counties and towns around Jingzhao Mansion.

Although Shi Kaiji had already memorized the topographic map of Jingzhaofu Road in his heart, after looking at the map carefully again, his expression became more and more dignified.

He said to Liu Zhuwen: "Liu Shuai, the Yuan Army has deployed [-] soldiers around Lantian County. Bing Wenxuan is already ready to block our attack. You will lead [-] Qingqi to go there this time." To seize Jingzhao Mansion, unless it is a surprise attack, I am afraid that you will encounter a lot of resistance! Look around this Jingzhao Mansion, these counties and towns are too close to Jingzhao Mansion, let alone wait until Jingzhao Mansion Even if it is only in Lantian County, the Yuan troops in these counties and towns will definitely gather in Jingzhao Mansion immediately."

Liu Zhuwen frowned and nodded lightly, "So we must find a way for the Yuan army in Lantian County, Baqiao Town and other places to take them down without any precautions."

"This……"

Shi Kaiji hesitated and said: "I'm afraid this possibility is not very high! There are beacon fires in every city, so Liu Shuai, do you still have a way to destroy them before they ignite the smoke?"

Liu Zhuwen said: "As long as we find out where they are, it is still possible."

Shi Kaiji was slightly moved, "You mean to send out the masters of Wuding Hall?"

Liu Zhuwen nodded lightly, "It will depend on the situation..."

……

At dusk, the smoke from cooking in Languan rises.

Later, when night fell, there was a long line of light cavalry soldiers coming out from the west gate of the pass, and slowly heading towards Jingzhao Mansion with torches.

Liu Zhuwen personally took command, not only with the soldiers of the light cavalry regiments of each army, but also all the soldiers of the special regiment.

In order to lighten their load and reduce their burden, the soldiers of the light cavalry only carried dry food for several days with them.

Liu Zhuwen sent soldiers from the Special Regiment of the Tianjiu Army to explore the road [-] miles ahead of the army.The army followed slowly behind.

Using the soldiers of the special regiment as scouts may seem a bit overkill, but Liu Zhuwen undoubtedly has his own refinement.

The soldiers of the special regiment were originally there to perform special missions, and this trip to Jingzhao Mansion was by no means as simple as just facing the scouts sent by the Yuan army.

On the way, there is also a beacon tower where the Yuan army walks. They must be wiped out before they ignite the smoke. This is the task of the soldiers of the special regiment of the Tianzhu Army.

In the darkness of night, more than half of the soldiers of the more than [-] special regiments of the Tianjiu Army were dispatched.Form a team of five teams, divide them into more than ten groups, and spread them out in a fan shape in front of the army.

The torch fluttered in the night wind.

The night is getting darker and darker.

In the night of this era, without the illumination of neon lights, the night is often so dense that you can't see your fingers.

Until the middle of the night, the army led by Liu Zhuwen had already rested in the wilderness.But the soldiers of the Tianzhu Army Special Regiment were still running in the wilderness.

This is not an easy matter.

In some places, horses cannot cross, and they can only lead the horses on foot.His whole body was already wet with the dew of the night.

The light that can be relied on is only the dots of light from the fire folder in his hand.

At this time, they had already advanced more than ten miles ahead of the army, and there were probably guard posts set up by the Yuan army around them.If you use the torch again, it is very likely to expose yourself to the eyes of the Yuan army.

It may be a small matter to usher in the Yuan army's attack, but if these Yuan troops ran back to Lantian County to report, it would be a big matter.

There are a total of more than ten teams, all struggling forward in the wilderness.And it is necessary to look for the sentry post of the Yuan army in such a night.

Even though the soldiers of the special regiment have been trained for a long time, they still feel strenuous.

But no one complained, just moved forward quietly.

No matter what mountain they encountered, they didn't go around, they would climb up the mountain to check.

The role of sentry posts is to detect the enemy's movement, so they are often built on high mountains.Because the view on the top of the mountain is more vast.

I don't know when, but a scout was the first to discover a sentry post of the Yuan army.

It is said to be a sentry post, but it is actually just a few small wooden houses.

There are not many soldiers in these sentry posts scattered in the wild.

The team of scouts found these cabins after climbing up the mountain.

The sentry post was quiet, with only two dimly lit braziers.Outside the house, there were two Yuan soldiers sitting in front of the gate, which was no different from a fence, dozing against the wooden fence.

Probably they didn't think that the Imperial Guards of the Song Dynasty would come to eradicate them at such a night.

After all, marching in such a dark night is actually hard to imagine. Not to mention the Yuan army, even the scouts in the imperial army of the Song Dynasty may not be able to do it.

This requires extremely high military quality.

Perhaps in the entire world today, only the soldiers of the Song Dynasty Special Regiment who have experienced professional training can do this.

The scout team consisted of 50 people, and ten of them stayed at the foot of the mountain to guard the horses.Here, there are 40 people.

All of them were holding Shenlong guns, and after seeing these cabins, they all crawled down on the spot.

The four captains got together.

After a brief discussion, the four separated again.

Two small captains led their soldiers to go around to the other two sides of the sentry post.

The other two squad leaders turned their heads and made several gestures to the soldiers behind them.

The gestures are very simple, one is to put the finger in front of the mouth, and the other is to put the hand across the neck.It means working quietly.

The soldiers behind passed the gestures one by one.

The two squad leaders looked at each other, nodded, and then they both took out the pocket crossbows that were only equipped for special soldiers from their waists.

The most outstanding thing about this kind of crossbow is that it doesn't make any noise, and as long as it hits a vital point, it can also kill people instantly.

But at this time, the two of them were still more than ten meters away from the two Yuan troops at the gate of the village, so the strength of the two small captains was very important.

Although the squad leader is the elite of the special forces, the two squad leaders still aimed for more than ten seconds.

Then there were two almost inaudible swishes.

Two arrows flew out from the pocket crossbows in their hands.

As soon as he shot it, he disappeared in the night.

In the next moment, the two Yuan soldiers in the faint light suddenly opened their eyes.Then he lowered his head helplessly.

Those two arrows directly sank into their temples, killing them directly.

The two squad leaders waved to the soldiers behind them, and they bowed silently and approached the sentry post.

Then he squatted down next to the gate of the village, waited for a few minutes, and then went into the sentry post again.

If you stop again, you will be outside the doors of the four cabins.

The two teams consisted of 20 people, divided into four groups, and stood on the left and right sides of the cabin door.

Immediately afterwards, soldiers appeared from behind the cabin.

It was the soldiers of the two squads that circled behind the sentry post.

After meeting, the soldiers all made an OK gesture.

All the soldiers drew out the sabers tied to their legs.

Then, the soldier by the door suddenly raised his leg and kicked the door open.
