Lord: Start with a book of Water Margin

Chapter 166 Stealing the Camp
Ruan Xiaoqi said excitedly: "Master, just as the military advisor said, all the villagers in Qinglong Peak are honest and honest villagers. Seeing that we are all well-armed and look like officers and soldiers, with strict military discipline, no one resists. I heard that We will be stationed here from now on, and the villagers will reward us with wine and meat. In just one day, Qinglong Peak was captured, and there was no fighting, so the brothers were still not satisfied."

Zhao Zhen said: "Brother, where have the other brothers gone?"

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "The owner of the village, the military advisor and others are all in the back mountain, leaving me to take care of it in the south of the mountain. The terrain in the south of the mountain is steep and the mountain roads are rugged. There is only this Dushan village of 83 households. The north of the mountain is gentle, with four villages, Donglou Village. , Sunjiazhuang, Chenying Village, Dingzhuang Village.”

"Master, that's all I know. You should ask the military advisor for the rest." As he said that, Ruan Xiaoqi scratched the back of his head and saw Zhao Zhen smiling, and Ruan Xiaoqi also laughed.

Zhao Zhen said: "In that case, brother, accompany me to the north of the mountain. I am looking for a scholar." As he said that, Zhao Zhen looked at Ruan Xiaoqi.

Ruan Xiaoqi said: "Master, Qinglong Mountain has undulating mountains. From Dushan Village to the north of the mountain, there is only one winding path in the green forest. It is also the only mountain path. Only two people can walk side by side. It is better to take the waterway."

Ruan Xiaoqi drove Zhao Zhen and others to the north of the mountain and docked at the Donglou Village Pier. Meng Kang saw everyone and came forward to meet Li.

Ruan Xiaoqi asked: "Brother Meng Kang, where is the military advisor?"

Meng Kang replied: "The military advisor is in Chenying Village. We are registering the population of each village's fields. I think it's almost done now. I will take all the brothers there."

Everyone walked up the dirt road. As Ruan Xiaoqi said, the mountain here is much flatter. But seeing the beautiful scenery, it’s exactly:

The mountain shadows are deep and the locust trees are gradually disappearing. In the outskirts of Green Poplar, you often hear birds returning to the forest; in Shantao Village, you often see cattle and sheep entering the pen. The setting sun brings smoke and green mist, and the broken clouds reflect the red light on the water.

After a while, everyone arrived at Chenying Village. Wu Yong was not there at this time. After asking Han Bolong, who was left behind, he found out that the statistics had been done here, and Wu Yong had just gone to Dingzhuang Village at the top.

Zhao Zhen rushed to Dingzhuang Village without stopping or taking a sip of water.

By the time everyone arrived, Wu Yong had recorded the situation in the village. Seeing Zhao Zhen and others sweating, Wu Yong was surprised and asked: "Master, why are you so anxious?"

Zhao Zhen said: "Student, I have obtained a new scroll of the fantasy world, and I am about to discuss it with the brothers." Zhao Zhen explained the contents of the scroll in detail again.

Wu Yong and others fell into deep thought after hearing this. It was Xiao Rang who spoke first: "Master, I heard what you said. These two groups of people are enemies. If we enter the battlefield and disrupt the situation, will it cause the two groups to join forces to attack us?"

Zhao Zhen shook his head and said: "After all, they have been fighting for more than ten days, and both sides have probably suffered a lot of losses. I thought that because we would not show up, we would be able to put aside our previous grudges and deal with us together."

Wu Yong also spoke at this time: "Yes, the Qing army has the upper hand, and the rebels are in danger of being wiped out at any time. We are waiting to intervene at this time. I think the Qing army still has the strength to defend, and the rebels can take a breather. I can't say, first of all, the two sides will work together." Resist the Qing army, and then, depending on the situation, either surrender, annex or destroy."

Zhao Zhen said: "In this case, we must decide on the expedition personnel early. Wang Lun and his gang in the province have been wiped out." Immediately, Zhao Zhen, Wu Yong, Xiao Rang, and Pei Xuan discussed in Dingzhuang Village, considering The Qing army was elite and well-equipped, and Linqing was an important waterway. After deciding who would participate in the war, Zhao Zhen and below still appointed Wu Yong as their military advisor. Ruan Xiaoqi led the capital on the waterway, Ruan Xiaowu. Boat.

On land, the cavalry troops were still Luan Tingyu and Deng Fei, who selected all the heroic cavalry troops to accompany them. In addition to the three people Guang Hui, Zhu Gui, and Chao Gai who were already in the main world, the infantry also added Bao Xu, bringing with them the newly formed [Chongfengdu] hundred people, and then selected heroic Pu Wenbing from the two capitals.

Jiao Ting was left to garrison at Qinglong Peak, and Tao Zongwang took his place. They selected a site and built a camp here, while Meng Kang inspected the water. Xiao Rang stayed again to appease the bankers and urge the autumn taxes. He also hired villagers with grain and rice to help build the camp.

The plan was decided, Zhao Zhen and others packed up, walked down the ridge, and returned to Baishi Valley by water. Zhao Zhen issued an order, and all the heroes followed the instructions, selected sergeants, packed up their weapons, and waited until tomorrow to collect them all at the water village on the north side of Baishi Valley.

At night, Zhao Zhen, Cheng Wan'er and others had dinner and went to Jin Cuilian's place to rest for the night. On the second day, Zhao Zhen got up early, dressed neatly, mounted his black horse, and arrived at the water village on the north side at five o'clock. In the water stronghold, all the heroes and sergeants have arrived.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Zhao Zhen didn't waste any nonsense and directly used his luck to take everyone to the main world. The horse and infantry troops all appeared in the Bailiu Village sunbathing area, and the navy army also consumed additional luck and appeared in the water pool.

Chao Gai and others had already prepared what they needed for the expedition, such as grain, livestock, carts, tents, hurriedly made horses, etc. Everyone cooked and ate first, and then rested in the big tent in the drying field.

It was indeed last night that Zhao Zhen and Wu Yong discussed how to appear in the fantasy world at three o'clock in the night and steal the Qing army outside the city while neither party knew about Zhao Zhen's group.

This plan has a high probability of success. Once successful, Zhao Zhen can conquer this fantasy world at a very small cost.

During the day, the sergeants were familiarized with each other, and Ma Jun, led by Luan Tingyu and Deng Fei, patrolled Bailiu Village. Firstly, it calms the restless horses, and secondly, it excites the soldiers and prepares them for the next killing.

After a day's rest, at the third watch, Zhao Zhen gathered his soldiers and opened the scroll. Everyone entered the fantasy world of [Qingshui Sect Wang Lun].

At this time, the fantasy world was quiet, and the stars and moon were still bright. Taking advantage of the moonlight, Zhao Zhen and others observed that they were now on the river, and the warship of the Ruan brothers was in the river. The camps in the distance and Linqing City can be vaguely seen.

Everyone whispered a few words, picked up luan bells on their horses, received their sergeant titles, and walked quickly in the dark, quietly approaching their respective goals and arriving at the gate of the Qing army's stronghold.

Luan Tingyu and Deng Fei led the cavalry in front, followed closely by the [Chongfengdu] led by Guanghui and Bao Xu, and finally the soldiers led by Pu Daobing led by Chao Gai and Zhu Gui and the soldiers led by the two sisters Ji Minghan. Let's go to the village together.

After the distance was about the same, the cavalry troops mounted their horses. Under the leadership of Luan Tingyu and Deng Fei, they accelerated from the small run to the enemy's horses and rushed straight into the Qing army's camp, followed by the infantry.

On the water, the navy also rushed directly into the hastily built military camp of the Qing navy. It was said to be a water camp, but to put it bluntly, it was just that the original dock was recruited and a group of green camp soldiers were assigned to guard it. Ruan Xiaoqi [鳳虎都] dispersed the Qing army with just one charge and captured the water stronghold.
