In Luoyun City, Chen Yue's figure appeared in a temporary barracks. As he walked slowly into the camp, he could see many shirtless soldiers running around the camp wall, even if the sun was shining on their heads, which made people dizzy.

The bright sun did not slow them down at all.

"One, one, one two one!"

"Work harder hehehehe!"

A total of three thousand people lined up in several square formations and ran around shouting slogans. They were all shirtless and only wore loose black trousers.

"Hey, Yun Chen, these people you and Luofu picked out are really bad guys." Chen Yue, who stopped and watched for a while, laughed.

These naked soldiers were as tanned as black coals.

Yun Chen spread his hands and said, "My lord, let me tell you the truth. It wasn't this dark when we just picked the people two days ago. Luofu took them running around for a few days and it became like this."

"Hahaha~"

Chenyue and the others burst out laughing.

"Call him over and ask him if you have anything to say." Chen Yue smiled and pointed at the man running at the front of the team.

Yun Chen nodded knowingly and shouted loudly: "Luofu! Come!"

Luofu, who was at the front of the team, turned around and looked, and immediately trotted over and said breathlessly: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, generals."

Drops of sweat gathered into lines and continued to slide down Luofu's strong chest. Luofu, who looked a bit fair and clean from the outside of his clothes, also had tendons and several shocking scars on his back.

The only thing that surprised everyone was that this Luofu didn't seem to get tan easily no matter how hard he tanned.

"Come, take a rest and take a breath." Chenyue smiled and handed a kettle to Luofu's hand.

Luo Fu finally stopped being so shy, and started to drink it generously. As soon as the sweet spring water entered his throat, Luo Fu became alert and shouted:

"Cool!"

Chenyue smiled and said: "How about it, are these people you picked okay?"

Luofu nodded: "There are eight hundred people here who were my subordinates before, and they know everything about them. There are also Qianbahao who are brothers from the next camp. The captain who led the army was also a good friend of me before. As for the rest, they are all

General Yun took me to other battalions to select them.

Almost all of these people are from farmers. They have been accustomed to climbing mountains and trees since they were young. Their legs and feet are very flexible. Not to mention the 800 people under my command. None of them have been working in the mountains for several years. Physical strength is not a problem.

.”

The brothers from the next camp that Luo Fu mentioned were actually the officers Chenyue saw who participated in the discussion that day. Although they did not agree with Luo Fu's plan at the time, when Yun Chen brought Luo Fu over to select people, they almost all guessed

After finding out what was going on, he joined in without hesitation.

There is a battle to be fought, and if you don’t come, you’d be a fool!

Chenyue couldn't help but nodded, then pointed at the soldiers in the field and said, "How long have you been running here?"

Luofu frowned and thought for a moment, then said: "It must have been twenty or thirty miles since morning."

"You want to burn your brothers to death, right?" Yun Chen said with a smile from the side: "Don't let us have your legs broken before the battle begins."

"Harmful."

Luofu spread his hands indifferently and said: "I don't know how it happened. These people are usually so hot that they are not even active in training, but something strange happened. After I called them into the camp, they were all in high spirits and howling all day long.

.”

"One, one, one two one!"

"Drink! Drink!"

"Work harder, Hei Heihei!"

Sure enough, the voices of these sweaty soldiers shouting slogans became louder and louder.

Chen Yue and others understood instantly. It was obvious that these people had guessed that a war was about to begin, otherwise they would not have mobilized soldiers to form a new battalion.

"Your Majesty, have you found out the address of Yan Jun's camp?" Luofu asked with expectation in his eyes.

Chen Yue shook his head: "The crossbowman has been out for a few days. There is no news yet, but it should be soon."

Luofu was slightly disappointed, but he also knew that this matter could not be rushed.

Since the Yan army deliberately hid the location of the camp, it shows that they have been wary of the Liang army for a long time.

While a few people were chatting, Xu Luo quickly walked in from outside the camp gate and whispered beside Chen Yue: "Your Majesty, Lieutenant Wu is back and waiting in the meeting hall."

"Come on, hahaha." Xin Ji laughed.

Chenyue smiled with satisfaction. Based on his understanding of Wu Xiake, he would never come back unless he found Yan Jun's camp.

Luofu also looked happy and rubbed his hands excitedly.

Chenyue patted Luofu on the shoulder: "Okay, you can continue training. The weapons and equipment needed for the march, dry food and water sources will be prepared immediately, and you will be ready to go at any time."

"No!" Luofu shouted excitedly.

…

"Your Majesty, generals!"

In the meeting hall, Wu Xiake, who had been waiting for a long time, was saluting Chen Yue and others with clasped fists.

"Okay, let's stop talking." Chen Yue quickly walked to the map: "How is it, where is it?"

"This is the Lazi River Valley!" Wu Xiake pointed at the map.

Several people's eyes fell on the map at the same time. This area was clearly the location Luofu had deduced that day.

Yelu Baoji sighed softly: "It's true that in this place, this Luofu is not simple."

A smile appeared on Chenyue's face, and he murmured softly: "Interesting, no wonder we couldn't find it, it turned out to be huddled under the river valley."

Xin Ji and others had sent crossbowmen out more than once before, just to find the location of the Yan army's camp.

However, Yunzhou is hundreds of miles in radius, with mountains crisscrossing it. Finding a camp is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and one has to always be on the lookout for sneak attacks by Yan army scouts, so they keep returning without success. This time, the scope of the search is narrowed down, and finally

The location is determined.

Xin Ji turned to look at Wu Xiake and asked, "How many people are there?"

Wu Xiake said solemnly: "It's dark, and we don't know the exact number of enemy troops. But judging from the size of the camp, it should be around 20,000 to 30,000, mostly infantry, supplemented by cavalry and food and baggage."

"That's right." Yun Chen said: "According to the military reports, the Yan army should have sent about 50,000 troops to attack the Yunjin defense line, half of them stayed in the stronghold, and the other half went out to fight. Two groups

The troops and horses rotated back and forth."

"As long as we destroy this camp and destroy their food and grass, the remaining more than 20,000 troops and horses will be a source of waterlessness and they will starve to death!" A smile appeared on Xin Ji's face.

"But Luofu only has 3,000 men under his command. It would be very difficult to break through a camp of 20,000 people." Yun Chen said with some worry.

Yelvbaoji looked closely at the map and then said uncertainly: "Is this Lazi River Valley lush with vegetation?"

Xin Ji nodded and said, "Yes, the soil on both sides of the river valley is pretty good, and there are trees growing there."

Yelu Baoji chuckled and said: "It seems that now is the hottest season of the year. The weather is dry and it is easy to catch fire."
