The first thousand two hundred and forty-seven chapters
Chapter 1,247 Men Qing
Darlando said what he wanted to emphasize again, and then directly ordered the five people to disperse and look for traces of the enemy.
"Enter, do you think the enemy really won't come out tonight?"
Maurer, the general next to Enter, looked at Enter with a flash of light in his eyes.
"Now that the enemy's situation is unclear, and the general has just left with his army, they will not know whether it is a trap or real, so they will definitely not send troops rashly."
Enter smiled slightly, looked into the distance and directly expressed his thoughts.
"Is this why you pulled back all the scouts outside?
Is this why you withdrew your cavalry so far?
Just to make them relax their vigilance?"
Although Maural is known for his bravery, he is not a fool. Enter made it so obvious. If he didn't know better, he wouldn't be a general.
"Well, that's what I mean. Now I want to create such an atmosphere, an atmosphere that allows them to attack with confidence. Only in this way can their people bite the bait I threw outside."
Enter nodded, that was exactly what he meant.
"But it doesn't have to be thirty miles away. If the city really sends troops, I'm afraid that 30,000 of them won't be able to support it for long."
Although Enter said this, Maurer was still a little worried. After all, the distance was still quite far. If something went wrong, they might not be able to provide support in time.
"Don't worry, if we advance at full speed at Thirty Mile, we can arrive in two quarters at most. I don't believe that Moon City's soldiers and horses can eat up our 30,000 troops in two quarters of an hour. As long as Krawan can hold them back, Moon City will That’s it.”
Regarding Maurer's worries, Enter smiled slightly. Thirty miles may be a long distance from the perspective of infantry, but if the entire cavalry charge, it will be nothing at all. Do you have to answer to Maurer himself?
"I'm afraid of what might happen. What if the enemy really has the strength to kill an army of 30,000 men in two quarters of an hour?"
Mao Laer naturally knew what Enter said. The cavalry could rush to the battlefield in two quarters of an hour. However, there would be countless variables in these two quarters of an hour. If someone really stole the chicken, not only would the Kushan Empire be in trouble. If they are lost, Klavan's soldiers will also have problems.
"It's only ten thousand, no chance, General Maurer, don't overestimate the enemy's strength and don't underestimate General Klavan's. There will definitely be no problem."
Enter had never thought about Mauraer's words. To be honest, he really didn't believe that this situation would happen.
"Since you insist, I have nothing to say, so just sit as you say. I hope I am over-worrying about everything."
Maurer glanced at Enter. He was the commander-in-chief this time. Since he said so, he had nothing to refute.
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much."
"Cuckoo."
"Gu Gu."
There was a sound of birdsong, followed by a tremor in the woods, and five figures appeared under the night sky.
"How about it?"
Darlando glanced at the four people, his eyes full of doubts. He had been looking for them for so long. Not to mention the enemy's large army, not even their scouts saw any of them. This was a bit too suspicious.
"Nothing was found."
"I am here too."
"No."
"Can't find anything."
The four people shook their heads one after another. Like Darando, they also didn't realize anything.
"There is something fishy here. I don't believe that there is no large army and no scouts. Could it be that the other side is really so confident that they put 30,000 infantry here for us to eat?"
Darlando frowned, his eyes full of doubts.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
After hearing what Darando said, several other people also frowned, not knowing what to do next.
"what to do?
Continue to explore, King Barbarian ordered us to find traces of the enemy tonight. Even if we go further, I still don’t believe it. As long as they are here, we must find them."
Darlando glanced around, then led his men to continue exploring outside, making sure to find traces of the enemy.
This night was destined to be sleepless. Darlando had been running for an hour and a half, and a pair of shoes was almost worn out. Finally, something was gained.
"Goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much."
"Gu Gu."
There was another burst of birdsong, and several people in Dalan gathered together again.
"Sir, the enemy has been discovered."
A man wiped the sweat from his head and spoke to Darando.
"how?"
Darlando was also excited when he heard that the enemy had been discovered.
"You'd better come and see for yourself."
A trace of fear flashed in the man's eyes, and he turned around and led a few people forward slowly.
"hiss."
Darlando was led forward, pushing aside the grass in front of him, and a huge camp appeared in front of him. It was full of huge tents. Judging from the tent alone, there were at least 70,000 to 80,000 people, and there was another
The endless rows of stables were beyond his imagination as a southern barbarian.
"Sir, this."
Not only Darlando, but the rest of the people were also stupid. They no longer knew how to describe it.
"Don't talk, remember the distribution of the opponent's military camp and stables, and then follow me back to Moon City."
Darlando made a gesture of silence, and then carefully memorized the distribution of the enemy's military camps.
"Sir, don't you need to send people here to monitor the enemy?"
Hearing Darando's words, the people around him were also stunned.
"The enemy has too many soldiers and horses. Although I don't know why the enemy doesn't send scouts to the surrounding area, once their people are dispatched, it will be too difficult to hide.
Rather than being discovered by the enemy here and alerting the enemy, it is better to leave directly and return to the city."
Dalan is naturally not a fool to be entrusted with such an important task by Mrs. Zhu Rong. It is too risky to stay here now and the gain outweighs the loss.
"Then if the enemy changes camp and your Excellency leads the army to attack, won't it be possible that everything will be lost?"
Although it is dangerous to stay here, if you really report the news according to this place, once the enemy leaves, it may be even more troublesome.
"How can so many people change camps so easily? Don't worry, let's go."
After speaking, Darlando quietly retreated back. The remaining four people looked at each other and had nothing to say, so they retreated.
The distance of thirty miles is still in the dense forest. Even if Dalanduo and the others have lived in the four counties of Jingnan since they were young, it is not easy to walk. And it is not just a matter of walking, they also have to mark it.
, and at the same time erase their own traces.
Finally before dawn, they returned to the exit of the secret passage. After lifting the cover, five of them, many of them, returned to the city through the secret passage.
"Barbarian King, Darlando is outside asking for an audience."
Although Mrs. Zhu Rong did not wait in the stable, she still had a sleepless night because she told Jia Xu that she would give him an answer tonight.
"Let Darlando come in quickly."
"The Barbarian King."
Darlando saluted Mrs. Zhu Rong directly.
"How about it?"
"We lived up to the Barbarian King's expectations. We searched all night and finally found the enemy."
Darlando looked at Mrs. Zhu Rong, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes.
"how?
Are there many enemies?"
Seeing Darando's expression, Mrs. Zhu Rong also frowned.
"King Barbarian, the enemy is camped thirty miles away from the city. They are all cavalry and number about 70,000 to 80,000. That scene is simply terrifying to me."
Darlando directly told everything he saw.
"Seven or eighty thousand people?
And they are all cavalry?
Did you see clearly?"
Mrs. Zhu Rong was a little surprised when she heard the enemy's intelligence. It was okay to have 70,000 to 80,000 ambushed troops, but 70 to 80,000 to 80,000 cavalry would not be troublesome, but terrifying.
"What I saw is absolutely true, they are all cavalry."
Darlando nodded to Mrs. Zhu Rong and confirmed the meaning of what he just said.
"You will follow me to see Mr. Jia Xu immediately."
Since the situation was so urgent, Mrs. Zhu Rong had nothing to say and took Dalando to find Jia Xu.
"Sir, Mrs. Zhu Rong would like to see you."
"Please come in quickly."
"promise."
Mrs. Zhu Rong came directly to Jia Xu, and then they all saluted him with clasped fists.
"Madam, have you gained something?"
Jia Xu glanced at Mrs. Zhu Rong. He believed that she would come to see him now and must have a clue.
"Dalando led people to explore all night, and finally found traces of the enemy thirty miles away. There were seven or eight thousand people, and all of them were cavalry."
Mrs. Zhu Rong told the results of Dalando's investigation.
"With 70,000 to 80,000 cavalry, the people of the Kushan Empire are quite capable."
To be honest, after hearing this situation, even though Jia Xu was mentally prepared, he was a little bit overwhelmed. Of the 70,000 to 80,000 cavalrymen, the 30,000 people in front of him were definitely poisonous bait.
"Sir, what should we do next?"
Mrs. Zhu Rong clasped her fists at Jia Xu and asked him what he was going to do next.
"Is their hiding place in a dense forest or on a road?"
Now that the other party's traces have been detected, the next step is his own responsibility.
"We were not on the main road, maybe because we were afraid of being discovered. Instead, we found an open space in the dense forest as a place to set up camp."
Darlando glanced at Jia Xu, saluted him directly with cupped fists, and told him the enemy's geographical location.
"It's an open space in the dense forest. Haha, I know. I'll call General Tai Shici over right away."
After hearing Darando's words, Jia Xu's brows suddenly relaxed, and a plan appeared in his mind.
"grown ups."
Soon Tai Shi Ci came to pay homage to Jia Xu.
"Tell the soldiers of the Tiger Army and the militia to prepare for war and prepare to attack tonight. In addition, take out half of the kerosene for the city defense. I can use it."
Jia Xu directly told Tai Shici his arrangement.
"Are you ready to attack tomorrow night?"
Taishi Ci had just arrived and didn't understand Jia Xu's intention. Didn't he say that there must be an ambush on the opposite side?
Isn’t attacking now seeking death?
"Well, you don't have to worry about the enemy's reinforcements. Just tell me if you are confident that you can wipe out all these 30,000 soldiers?"
Jia Xu shook his head slightly. He was going to fight this battle on two sides, one side was the 30,000-Karawan tribe near the city, and the other side was the Enter tribe thirty miles away.
"If we don't take into account the factor of their ambush and attack 30,000 enemies with a force of 50,000 or 60,000, I can only say that they will be defeated, but it will still be a bit difficult to completely annihilate them. After all, we don't have time to arrange at all."
Taishi Ci glanced at Jia Xu, but he disagreed with what he said about total annihilation, because now he could only fight the enemy head-on and could not arrange an ambush, so defeating them was the only thing he could do.
"Destroy it, just defeat it, as long as you can guarantee it."
Jia Xu also nodded. Tai Shici is good, brave and resourceful, and the most important thing is his calmness. The answer he gets from others now is probably a sure answer.
"Sir, I wonder if you have any method to block enemy reinforcements?
Do you want to use fire?"
Mrs. Zhu Rong glanced at the two of them, and a flash of light flashed in her eyes, because he heard a very key thing, that is, kerosene.
You must know that the kerosene stored in Yuecheng is very large. Now that Jia Xu wants to use half of the kerosene in reserve, he should attack with fire.
"Well, I am indeed planning to attack them with fire. Originally, I couldn't think of any way to deal with them, but now it's okay. Since they are in the dense forest, don't blame me for being ruthless and burning them all down."
Jia Xu nodded to Mrs. Zhu Rong. He was indeed preparing to use kerosene to attack. If it was difficult for Hariwan's army to infiltrate on the road before, but now Enter's people are hiding in the jungle in order to hide, then
Don't blame yourself.
"Then I understand."
Mrs. Zhu Rong nodded. Since Jia Xu arranged for Tai Shici to attack Kelawan's 30,000 infantry, then the matter of burning the cavalry would definitely fall on his useless flying army.
"Well, if you understand, then go ahead and prepare. Tonight, Wudang flying troops will attack the enemy's ambush. They will set off through the secret passage on the first watch, take action on the second watch, and launch on time on the third watch.
Ziyi, when you see the fire, you lead the soldiers and immediately send troops to attack the enemy's soldiers on the surface. There can be no mistakes in this. They must act at the same time. Do you understand?"
Jia Xu had nothing to say and directly issued the order. Just as Mrs. Zhu Rong said, Wu Dang's flying army attacked Enter's tribe, and Taishi Ci led his army to attack Kelawan's tribe.
"promise."
"promise."
The two clasped their fists together, and then the entire Moon City moved into action. Cans of kerosene were taken from the city wall to the prepared place. At the same time, except for the soldiers on the city wall, the remaining people began to close their doors and sleep, preparing for the night.
Prepare for attack.
"General, do you think General Enter's plan is likely to succeed?
Will the enemy really attack us?"
Drum glanced at Kravan. To be honest, he felt that Enter's plan was impossible at all. As long as the other party was not a fool, he could see that there was something fishy about him and come out to bite him. Is it possible?
"Drum, what you said makes sense, but this is Enter's cleverness. He has already calculated that the guard of the opposite city is a woman, and he is also the king of the Southern Barbarians.
The Southern Barbarians had just been conquered by the Chinese, and they must be eager to show off. Moreover, Enter's cavalry was thirty miles away, and it was impossible for the enemy to discover it.
So if they send troops to eat us, they still have a great chance of making achievements."
