At this time, in the bandits' nest, in addition to the original bandits, there were also desperate people coming from all over the place, all of whom were summoned by Chen Sandao's personal prestige in the bandits' ranks. Of course, there were more than a thousand people who were remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, but most of them were disguised and turned into Han people.

But some people can tell at a glance that they are not from Central Plains, but the bandits don’t care much. After all, everyone is licking blood from the knife. It doesn’t matter where people are, and it’s important to grab things together.

Pieces of temporary tents are connected in the valley, with only one entrance and exit in the valley, which is very safe.

At this time, most of the bandits were drinking and having fun in the valley. Some famous bandit leaders, as well as the remnants of the Northern Yuan who secretly supported them, surrounded by Chen Sandao, with a bonfire burning in the middle, and everyone was eating meat and drinking.

Chen Sandao sat in the top position and said to the bandits below:

"Brothers, we are only two days away from the Ming army's stronghold. This time, as long as we follow me, Chen Sandao, finish this ticket, I guarantee that every brother can get rich! Everyone has women! Everyone has gold! Tonight, everyone will eat and drink, and set off tomorrow to get rich!"

After he finished his roar, the bandit leaders who were unknown below all shouted happily.

Some of the North Yuan generals who were disguised had already looked at each other a few times at this time, and their eyes were filled with pride.

They were not worried at all that these bandits would not fight them. On the one hand, Chen Sandao had already drawn a big cake, and on the other hand, there were more than a thousand armed forces left by the Beiyuan. Now that they gathered together, they were the mainstay of this action. Of course, it would be great if these bandits could do their best.

They also brought various imitation mandarin duck war jackets. Although the number is not large, they can only be worn by hundreds of people. However, when they wear mandarin duck war jackets, when the fierce battle in front, pretend to be reinforcements from behind to deceive the switch, everyone rushed forward and could open up the situation!

Whether it was the bandits waiting to grab a large ticket or the remnants of the Beiyuan who were lying to restore the Yuan Dynasty, they were extremely happy at this time. Buckets of wine were moved out and they were squandering their money as if they didn't have money. In their opinion, in a few days, everyone would be rich and rich, so what's the point of saving them now!

And while they were drinking here, some scouts wearing straw raincoats and hats, deliberately pretending to be themselves, could have vaguely heard the movement here.

Based on past experience, they knew that not far ahead was the bandits' village.

However, in order to avoid alarming the snakes, and with the complex terrain ahead, they did not dare to investigate further, for fear of alarming the bandits' secret whistle, and letting the thieves run away while the night is sunny, it would be no more worth the effort.

In fact, if they could walk four or five miles further, they could see the endless battalion commander in the valley. That was definitely not the size that ordinary bandits could have.

After all, there are 4,000 people, who can gather more than 4,000 people in a bandit? There are not so many people in Liangshan!

Zhu Qi was sleeping soundly in the camp with his five thousand Ming troops in the mountains, and suddenly someone came from outside that he was secretly whistling in front of him and found the nest of a suspected bandit!

This direction is the direction pointed by the mountain citizen before. In other words, this group of bandits are probably the group of people who sold horses to the mountain citizen before. They must have something to do with Hu Qi, and at least there is news.

Needless to say, Zhu Qi immediately planned to let the army attack and wipe out these bandits.

In Zhu Qi's opinion, he was attacking at night and an official army again. Isn't it easy to suppress bandits?

Just as he was about to express his plan, Li Jinglong beside him was happy and said:

"Your Highness, this is a God-given opportunity. We should take advantage of the night to raid the bandits immediately!"

Zhu Qi's joyful smile suddenly became a little frozen, huh? Why did I want to go with Li Jinglong?

Xu Zengshou hurriedly coughed twice and said:

"Ahem, it's probably inappropriate to attack at night. I don't know if we can attack at night in our army, four or five hundred people can be gathered."

Zhu Qi was stunned, and then realized that it was just Hongwu Mingchu at this time. He, the prince, had eaten well in the past, and his nutrition was completely up to par with it. Of course, his ability to night vision was OK.

But ordinary soldiers usually eat less meat, let alone cod liver oil, liver and other things that are crucial to night vision. As for carrots, who has nothing to do to supplement carrots!

Some people eat it, but they don’t eat it. No one in the army knows that eating carrots can improve night vision.

So what Xu Zengshou said was the truth. At this time, the Ming army could not eat meat every meal, but it would be fine if it was eaten every two or three days. Not to mention that it was all night blindness, but it was obviously not appropriate to take it out for a night battle.

You should know that only the real elites can eat meat every meal, or before the war. Most of the time, the military camps mainly use soup, porridge and steamed buns as the main food!

Zhu Qi exhaled in his heart and almost made a joke.

Li Jinglong was a little embarrassed, but his face was not red, and he said:

"Of course I know that there are not many people who can fight at night, but the other party is just bandits. Four or five hundred people are enough to fight!"

Geng Bingwen next to him suggested:

"Your Highness, according to the news sent by the scouts, the voices in front of us are quite noisy. Those who lick blood from the knife have passed today and have no tomorrow. Naturally, they are not as disciplined as our government troops. It is very likely that the bandits are drinking and having fun. We cannot wait for a while. When the time of Yin and the sky is getting dark, our army will be dispatched and we will definitely achieve the full battle."

After Geng Bingwen finished speaking, the other generals nodded, obviously agreeing with his opinion.

Seeing that they all thought so, Zhu Qi decided to adopt Geng Bingwen's opinion and remained in place, so that the bandits could eat and drink first. At the time of Yin, it was from 3:00 to 5:00 in the middle of the night. At this time, people's vigilance was the weakest and they were sleeping soundly. At this time, they could use the light to attack, which was a very good choice.

Soon, Zhu Qi sent an order and prepared for the battle. According to the terrain conditions discovered by the scouts, he prepared to prepare for an assault from the entrance of the valley!

The Ming army did not think too much, and rested on the spot for a while, left all the baggage in place, extinguished the torches one by one, and then, led by His Highness the Liao King, quietly touched not far ahead.

But the bandits and the remnants of the Northern Yuan Dynasty in the valley never dreamed that at this time, a Ming army of 5,000 people had already touched them...
