————The following text————

Mengshan Chu Camp is a military camp based on the entire Mengshan Mountain. Before the Wei State arrived here, the Chu Army cut down almost half of the trees on Mengshan Mountain and used the wood to build this fortress-like military camp.

.

The reason why the adjective "like a fortress" is used to describe Mengshan Chu Camp is because this military camp occupies a very large area. It can be said that everything from the middle of Mengshan Mountain is covered by this Chu Camp.

If you observe this Chu camp from a bird's-eye view, it is not difficult to find that the barracks of this Chu camp are in the shape of "Hui". Chu general Doulian ordered the Chu soldiers to build circles of barracks in the military camp. Therefore,

, if the outermost battalions are captured, there is no guarantee that the Chu camp will be captured.

Because of this, in the daytime today, Wei general Xu Yin first ordered his general Cai Qinhu, and Chu Xuan led the Western Wei camp and the Dongwei camp to attack the Chu camp. The two sides fought fiercely for most of an hour, except for the Chu army.

There is actually nothing gained outside the camp gate of the outermost camp fence that was deliberately surrendered.

It is no exaggeration to say that Chu General Doulian built this military camp into an impregnable place. In terms of defensive strength, it is probably no less powerful than the Wei State Yanshui Camp built by Zhao Hongrun at Yanshui. It is no wonder that he has such confidence and does not hesitate to use the general's camp.

The way the gate of the outermost camp gate was surrendered to the Wei army tempted Wei general Xu Yin to launch a fierce attack on this military camp.

Of course, although the Mengshan Chu Camp is heavily defended, it is also necessary to distinguish the objects it faces: for ordinary soldiers, the Mengshan Military Camp is indeed an impregnable fortress, but for some hidden thieves who are good at climbing over walls and climbing over walls.

The so-called "tight defense" is nothing more than a joke.

"Swish swish——"

Following a slight sound of searching, Duan Pei, the leader of the Shangshui Green Crows, led more than a hundred Green Crows to the northwest of Mengshan Mountain, until they reached the end of the mountain forest halfway up the mountain.

Suddenly, Duan Pei stopped and leaned against a mountain tree, sternly looking at the Chu camp gate not far away.

Seeing this, the more than a hundred Green Crows following him immediately stopped and hid themselves.

At this moment, Duan Pei was at the end of the mountain forest halfway down the mountain. The Chu army's camp was about thirty or forty feet away. In order to prevent sneak attacks, the Chu army had opened a field outside the barracks.

It's an open space of about a few dozen feet.

"This distance is not easy to handle..."

Duan Pei visually measured the distance between his position and the Chu camp not far away, with a slight concern in his eyes.

As far as he knew, the Mengshan Chu camp built by the Chu army was built in an interesting place. There was only one exit in the entire military camp, which was built to the east of Mengshan. The other three sides were all about two feet high.

The barracks can be said to be a dead end that is inaccessible to ordinary soldiers.

But even so, Chu General Doulian still deployed troops to defend on the other three sides.

For example, where Duan Pei is now, there are three sentry towers within his field of vision. Every two sentry towers are about two hundred steps apart. If the Chu camp is full of sentry towers built according to this spacing

, let alone a sneak attack against ordinary soldiers, it is still a big challenge even for the Green Crows and others.

Because the distance of two hundred steps is within the shooting range of bows and crossbows, each tower can protect each other. Therefore, if Duan Pei wants to capture these towers, he must do it quietly.

, Otherwise, not to mention alerting the Chu soldiers in the camp, you will even be attacked by flying arrows from the Chu soldiers on duty on other sentry towers.

But what gives Duan Pei the most headache is not the Chu soldiers on duty on the sentry tower, but the braziers erected high on both sides of the sentry tower. The blazing flames in the braziers illuminate the nearby area.

, although the light is not very sufficient, you can still see the figures outside the camp fence.

"What should I do?"

Duan Pei squinted his eyes and stared at the top of the sentry tower directly opposite, staring intently at the few Chu soldiers holding weapons above, observing them carefully.

According to his observation, each of these sentry towers was probably guarded by a team of soldiers, two sword and shield soldiers holding shields, and three crossbowmen holding hand crossbows.

However, there was only room for two or three people to stand on the sentry tower. Therefore, every once in a while, the five Chu soldiers would change their defenses. The tired soldiers climbed down the sentry tower, probably to rest and take a nap in the camp fence, and rested for a while.

Zhenzi's companions took over Tongze's defense.

Generally speaking, it was just a sentry tower guarded by a team of soldiers. Duan Pei observed it for a long time and found no other tricks.

This made Duan Pei secretly say something lucky: after all, it is much easier to sneak in under two or three pairs of eyes than to sneak into the Chu camp under five pairs of eyes.

But the problem is that even if there are only two or three Chu soldiers guarding each sentry tower in the military camp opposite, it is still a challenge to get close.

But Duan Pei didn't flinch or fear at all, instead he was very excited.

Come to think of it, when these groups of hidden thieves were nesting in the small place of Yangxia, apart from fighting among themselves, they never did anything sensational. But now, they want to sneak attack a military camp guarded by nearly ten thousand Chu troops.

This is just...so damn exciting!

Of course, in addition to their interest, the rewards given by their loyal lord Su Wang Hongrun also stimulated them to risk their lives.

Although the current rewards are still limited to property, Duan Pei believes that one day, sooner or later, he, who was born among the hidden thieves and has done many dirty things in the past, may become a nobleman and become the envy of the common people.

The noble lord.

Of course, we have to get ahead of the crowd of black crows in Yangxia.

It has to be said that not being the only one means there is competition, just like the Yanling Army and the Shangshui Army. As the only hidden thieves under Su Wang Zhao Hongrun, the Shangshui Green Crow and the Yangxia Black Crow both serve the same lord.

, but there will still be competition with each other.

Of course, this is exactly what Zhao Hongrun wants.

"wait!"

Duan Pei conveyed a message of "be patient" to the Green Crows behind him. After all, Zhao Hongrun had warned him before he set off that they, the Green Crows, were the key to this battle.

After waiting for a full hour, Duan Pei stood upright behind a tree, staring intently at the Chu soldiers on the sentry tower. Not only did he feel soreness in his waist and back, but his eyes began to feel sore and even dripping.

tear.

But even so, all the Blue Crows, including Duan Pei, still maintained the highest concentration.

Suddenly, a warning drum sounded in the Chu camp, which made Duan Pei slightly stunned.

"Exposed? Oh, no..."

After being slightly surprised, Duan Pei immediately guessed that this might be the sound of drums used by the Chu camp to summon the soldiers in the camp. After all, at this moment, the Chu general Doulian guarding the camp was leading his Chu army down the mountain to fight with the Fenxing army.

There was a fierce battle, and it was very likely that the enemy was jealous and angry, so he ordered people to come to the military camp to mobilize the remaining troops.

Not to mention, Duan Pei guessed the truth of the matter, and Chu General Doulian indeed mobilized troops from the military camp.

The most direct manifestation of this incident is that half of the Chu army guards on the sentry tower on Duan Pei's side seemed to have been removed, leaving one of the sentry towers that was originally about two hundred steps apart vacant.

Seeing this, a look of deep joy flashed across Duan Pei's face.

Because this means that within the same range, they only need to guard against one sentry tower, and the difficulty is reduced by more than half compared to before.

"Ready for action!"

Duan Pei conveyed a message to the crowd of blue crows behind him.

After a while, Duan Pei chose a relatively dimly lit location, bent his waist, and tiptoed towards the gate of Chuying.

The distance was thirty to forty feet, neither far nor close. Along the way, Duan Pei's heart was beating like a drum.

However, it turned out that his ability to lurk was very good, and he ran quickly without making any sound. So when he was calming down with his back against the camp fence, behind him, there was a sentry tower inside the camp fence.

Above, the two condescending Chu soldiers did not notice his arrival at all.

In fact, the two Chu soldiers were still chatting, probably about the night battle at the foot of the mountain.

"Let's talk, let's talk, and I'll send you to see the King of Hell in a while."

Duan Pei snorted secretly, and then waved to the forest opposite.

After a while, another member of the Blue Crows came to him quickly and quietly. Then this person slightly bent his knees and put his hands together in a posture ready to lift up.

Seeing this, Duan Pei stepped on his companion's hand, used his strength to climb up the camp fence, lay down on it, and lowered his hand.

At this time, he saw the companion holding his hand to lend strength, and the other hand also successfully climbed up the camp fence.

Immediately, the two quickly rushed into the camp.

They were very careful, because not far away, there were three Chu soldiers sitting there holding weapons, and they didn't know if they were taking a nap.

Duan Pei and the Qing Yazong looked at each other, took out the dagger from his waist, lurked over carefully, covered the mouth and nose of a Chu soldier with one hand, then cut his throat and stabbed his heart, leaving the two Chu soldiers to die.

Unable to scream out the screams in front of him, he subconsciously opened his eyes wide and walked towards death in ignorance.

In fact, the companions around the two Chu soldiers did not even notice this at all.

After a while, Duan Pei eliminated the third Chu soldier, and then pointed to the sentry tower above.

The Qingya people understood, and then, Duan Pei and him quickly climbed up the sentry tower, and with lightning speed, they each assassinated a Chu soldier using similar techniques as before.

"Hmph, that's all you need to be careful about. It's really useless to worry..."

After shaking off the blood on the dagger, Duan Pei looked at the corpse at his feet speechlessly.

I have to say that his evaluation was obviously biased. After all, how did the Chu army know that there were assassins like Qingya Zhong accompanying the Wei army?

After a while, more than a hundred Green Crows climbed over the camp fence one after another.

But seeing Duan Pei make a "disperse" gesture, more than a hundred Qingya people immediately dispersed in all directions, hunting down the Chu soldiers on duty near them.

For a time, countless Chu army sentries nearby were assassinated.

After killing the Chu soldiers nearby, Duan Pei and others stripped off the armor from the Chu soldiers' corpses and put them on themselves. Then, a group of people set fire to the camp and ignited everything that could be ignited nearby.

Mengshan Chu Camp, fire broke out in the rear.
