() Xiaochi County and Wuwei County are border areas, but the wars are mostly on the border of Wuwei County and rarely affect the county.
There has been no war in Wuwei County for decades, and the elite soldiers and generals in Xiaochi County have been deployed to the border to quell the rebellion of the Baima Qiang people. The remaining generals who have never experienced war are like flowers in a greenhouse.
We, of course, couldn't help but slack off.
Just as the commander of the North City Gate was drinking tea and humming a tune leisurely as usual, a soldier suddenly rushed in and said: "Report to the commander, the sentry saw a group of unidentified cavalry coming from the southeast.
They are running towards our north city gate."
"What?" When the city gate garrison suddenly heard this information, his hands trembled with fright, and he asked in a panic: "Did they raise a flag, but they are strangers, how many soldiers and horses there are."
This could not help but calm the city gate commander. Sixty percent of the troops in Xiaochi County were deployed. When the city was empty of defenses, a group of people of unknown origin rushed towards them. How could they let this unexpected
The city gate commander, who was folding quilts in the military camp and raising the flames of war, did not panic.
"They haven't raised a flag, and they don't look like strangers. We don't know the exact number of people in their team, but they should be less than a hundred people." The soldier quickly replied, and then asked: "Could it be the Black Wind Bandits? Should we ask for help from the city?
, we should be able to catch up now by deploying troops."
"Less than a hundred people? Well, that's no problem. There is no need to notify the city for help." The city gate commander then breathed a sigh of relief, straightened out his tea-stained clothes and said slowly: "Although our city gate defenders are less than a hundred people, but
Our city wall in Xiaochi County is tall and thick. Unless it is a county or state soldier, it will be difficult to capture it with three times the number of troops. What’s more, cavalry is not conducive to attacking fortresses, so we don’t need to be afraid."
"As for the Black Wind Bandits in the north, if they want to attack, aren't there still a few alien villages blocking them in the north? The news of their destruction of villages has not yet been received. It should not be the Black Wind Bandits. According to my guess, it is more likely to be 1086
The rebels in Novice Town.”
"If the commander is just a rebel from Xinsheng Town, should we attack and intercept the rebels? You must know that there is a reward of ten thousand dollars." When the soldiers heard that they were rebels from Xinsheng Town, they suddenly became alert and realized their military achievements.
Secondly, the key is the huge reward.
"This... the situation has not yet been completely clarified. It is impossible to determine whether they are Black Wind bandits or rebels, so there is no need to attack. Moreover, Niu Fujunjun also gave us an order to let us encounter any enemies before 60% of the army comes back.
The situation must be strictly guarded, so there is no need to attack. Just let the brothers be alert and defend strictly."
When the city gate commander heard about the reward of 10,000 yuan, he was also very excited, but he remembered that Niu Junhou had secretly given them an order not to leave, so he could only sigh with excitement at the reward of 10,000 yuan.
"Report, the cavalry team is rushing to the grain depot outside the city." Then the city gate commander had just given the order not to leave. In less than half a stick of incense, another soldier rushed in to report.
"What?" The commander of the city gate was immediately shocked. The grain depot outside the city was used to temporarily store grain and grass harvested from the farmland outside the city. It was at the end of the month. There was a lot of grain and grass stored in the grain depot outside the city. Once it was lost, it would be a big deal.
Even his position as village chief was not guaranteed.
But logically speaking, the location of the grain depot outside the city is very secret, and it is impossible for the rebels to know its location. However, the current direction of the cavalry attack proves that they know the location of the grain depot outside the city.
It was too late to think about these problems now. The commander of the city gate had to give orders hurriedly and let the whole army attack. Now he just hoped that he could still catch up.
Xiaochi County, northeastern grassland.
Qin Xiaobai looked at the defenders in the north of the city who were attacking, and smiled slightly. The map Niu Fu gave him was not only to help him escape this time, but also to play a role in the subsequent Infernal Affairs operations. Therefore, painting
It is extremely detailed, even the hidden grain depot outside the city gate is included.
However, Qin Xiaobai's main target this time is not the grain depot, but the north gate of Xiaochi Town. The first place for the ordnance and horses in the city is the city warehouse, and the second one is for the four urgently needed first-line cities.
city gate.
Qin Xiaobai has now become a bandit. The bandits lack equipment and food and grass. Although Niu Fu promised to provide him with supplies from time to time, if Qin Xiaobai cannot be self-sufficient, once Niu Fu takes hold of these two lifebloods of his
, then I can only be the one to eat the fish.
He has no shortage of food and grass. He has purchased thousands of stones of food and grass in Xinshou Village, enough to feed his thousands of people for half a year. What he lacks is weapons and equipment. His original plan was to industrialize the village and manufacture weapons and equipment himself after receiving the village building order.
But now that he has become a bandit, he cannot buy iron ore and cannot make it himself. Niu Fu just wants Qin Xiaobai to go undercover. Qin Xiaobai's strength has nothing to do with him. He may even think that the weaker Qin Xiaobai is, the better.
This makes it easier to control.
Undercover agents don't necessarily need to be powerful enough to be the leader of a mountain peak to enter the upper echelons of the Black Wind Bandits. With Qin Xiaobai's rebellion value, as long as he abandons these troops and joins the leader of a mountain bandit, he can immediately
To become a high-level personnel such as the Black Wind Bandit Strategist, you don't have any troops, but you can detect information. This is what Niu Fu wants most.
Therefore, it is easy for Qin Xiaobai to ask Niu Fu to provide food and grass, but it is very difficult for him to provide weapons and equipment. Qin Xiaobai knows this very well.
But Qin Xiaobai is not a person who likes to be passive. He has become a commander, and he still has a hundred vacant soldiers. As long as he gets weapons and equipment, he can double the army at any time. Since Niu Fu doesn't give it to him, then he will
Go get it yourself.
Three young girls from the Qin family led fifty town cavalry, pretending to attack the grain depot outside the city, and transferred the defenders of the North City Gate away, and then made a surprise attack on the North City Gate.
Not long after Xiaochi County was upgraded from a small town to a county seat, a few county soldiers were deployed to fight against the Baima Qiang people. The remaining soldiers were only town soldiers with the same combat power as Qin Xiaobai. This was why he dared to attack Xiaochi City.
One of the reasons for the door.
After watching the city gate defenders drift away and finally disappear, Qin Xiaobai immediately issued an order and led fifty town cavalry to rush to the north gate.
After the city gate commander transferred most of the soldiers and horses from the north gate, only a few old and weak soldiers were left to guard the gate. Suddenly, he saw fifty town cavalry rushing towards them. He was frightened and ran away without any resistance.
Qin Xiaobai immediately ordered the town soldiers to make human ladders, climbed up the city wall, went down and opened the city gate, and then led the town cavalry to rush into the city gate.
After entering the city gate, he caught an old pawn who failed to escape in time. After questioning, he learned the location of the city gate warehouse and stables. Qin Xiaobai immediately ordered the town soldiers to take out the weapons and equipment from the warehouse.
Loading horses into stables.
After the town soldiers received the order, they immediately went to do it. Qin Xiaobai held on to the city wall and looked around inside and outside the city, observing the movement and being ready to escape in case the soldiers and horses from Xiaochi County came to kill them. However, fortunately, the soldiers and horses outside the city did not return for a long time as expected.
The city was unexpectedly calm, with no trace of troop movements.
After a stick of incense, the town soldiers evacuated more than a hundred pieces of heavy weapons and armor from the warehouse and loaded them on more than fifty horses in the city gate stable. Only then did the mobilization of soldiers appear in Xiaochi County.
.
This puzzled Qin Xiaobai. According to his expectation, it would be good to be able to move half of the heavy weapons, but there was no time to think about this problem now. Now that the weapons and equipment had been loaded onto the horses, he led the town cavalry and led five
Ten horses, loaded with armor, ran towards the outside of the north city.
After half a stick of incense, soldiers and horses from the city arrived belatedly. A burly man with bright armor and a black-maned horse looked at the looted North City Gate and angrily turned to a man riding a horse beside him.
The young man dressed as a scholar and with an indifferent temperament said: "Second uncle, although we have retained this person for great use, we cannot indulge him like this. His ruthless tail is too big to shake off. Can he still be controlled?"
The literati young man who was called the second uncle by the big man smiled calmly and said: "County Magistrate Fan Chou, I used a trick to force Qin Xiaobai to become a bandit. There must be resentment in my heart. I was planning to devise another plan to resolve it, but I didn't expect to send him away automatically.
An opportunity came up, so I held back and let him loot the North City Gate to eliminate his resentment."
Fan Chongling snorted and said disapprovingly: "I think Qin Xiaobai is just the chief of a small town. Is he worthy of being so valued? If the second uncle hadn't stayed put and the first uncle had asked the chiefs of the city gates to guard the city, then
Qin Xiaobai can only lose troops and generals. But even so, he can only stop here, and he will not get even half a cent. If he dares to do this again in the future, I will let him die here. "
However, as soon as Fan Chou finished speaking, a soldier rushed in and reported: "Unfortunately, the grain depot outside the city was attacked by rebels. One hundred stones of grain and grass in the grain depot were looted."
