All day long, Lu Meng followed Ma Teng's army with a hundred soldiers from Langya Camp.
Fortunately, all the soldiers brought enough dry food so that they would not go hungry.
As the sun set in the west, Lu Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief. They had been running with Ma Teng's army all day long, and their spirits had been tense. It was really tiring!
Seeing Lu Meng relax, Zhang Hu said: "Boss, Ma Teng's army is still on its way."
Lu Meng raised his eyebrows and sighed in his heart.
This Ma Teng is really capable of tossing, and he is still on his way even though it is already dark. From this point of view, the army led by Lu Meng must also speed up, otherwise Ma Teng has captured Xinping County, and they have not yet captured Huaihe County.
Li County. According to Fazheng's plan, Huaili County must be captured first, and then he and Wang Can's army besiege Ma Teng in order to trap Ma Teng.
However, once Ma Teng took the initiative, he became the first to attack Wang Can's army.
This situation is a competition for time.
Whoever takes one step faster will get the upper hand.
Lu Meng knew the importance of the matter, so he naturally did not dare to neglect it. He stood there and took a breath, and continued to lead his soldiers to chase Ma Teng's army. Although the night was dim, Ma Teng's soldiers lit torches, and the blazing torches reached the sky.
The ground illuminated the entire sky, allowing Lu Meng to lead his troops to see the mountain road clearly without being affected by the bumpy mountain road.
Late at night, Ma Teng's army finally stopped.
After seeing this, Lu Meng breathed a sigh of relief.
These Xiliang people are so hardworking that it makes people speechless. They are just rushing from early morning to late at night, but this also puts huge pressure on Lu Meng. They have more time and will definitely arrive in Huaili County earlier than Ma Teng.
But Ma Teng was in such a hurry that Lü Meng had to change his marching speed.
Ma Teng's army set up camp, and the soldiers under his command were already exhausted and went to bed early.
It was quiet in the camp, with no movement at all.
Those patrolling soldiers seemed to be very confident, or they thought that Wang Can's army had already rushed to Xinping County, so they were fully confident that they would not encounter enemy troops when rushing from Huaili County to Xinping County. Therefore, the soldiers guarding the camp
They were all very lax. There was no post at every five steps or a sentry at ten steps. They only sent some soldiers to guard the camp.
In this way, Lu Meng's success rate also increased a lot.
After Ma Teng's army rested, about an hour later, all the tents with lights in the camp went dark.
This shows that everyone in the camp has gone to sleep.
Zhang Hu, Lu Meng and others hid beside the road, staring at the camp. When he saw the lights extinguished, leaving only the torches burning in the camp, he whispered: "Boss, we can take action. Should we touch in? Or
what to do?"
Lu Meng tilted his head and cursed in a low voice: "You are stupid, or you have a pig's brain. There are more than 80,000 soldiers inside, and you actually want to get in. We have no one to help us, and no one to support us."
, we can only rely on ourselves for everything. In this case, if you want to die, I will not stop you, just go on your own."
Zhang Hu scratched his head and smiled.
Liu Yang then asked: "Boss, how do we lure them out?"
Lu Meng said: "This is easy to do. One of you imitates the chirping of birds, and the other runs quickly in the grass, so that the soldiers patrolling the camp can see a vague shadow. They will be curious, and you can attract them out."
Zhang Hu blinked and felt it made sense.
He rolled his eyes and said, "Xiao Yangzi, take off your clothes and get ready to run. I'll imitate the bird call."
Liu Yang glared at Zhang Hu fiercely, then looked at Lu Meng, waiting for Lu Meng's instructions. Lu Meng laughed when he heard this, with a malicious smile on his face, and said: "Huzi, your suggestion is very good.
However, you should take off your clothes and run quickly in the grass, Liu Yang will imitate the chirping of birds."
Zhang Hu looked bitter and said, "Boss, you can't!"
Lu Meng looked serious and ordered: "Okay, that's it, execute the order."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yang smiled and nodded in agreement, then put his hand to his mouth and immediately imitated the bird call.
Suddenly, the crisp chirping of birds sounded.
At this time, everything was quiet under the night sky, and the sudden sound of birdsong immediately attracted the attention of the soldiers on patrol. One by one, the soldiers stopped and turned their heads to look, only to find a figure running quickly through the grass outside the camp.
When the soldiers saw this, they trembled and had a look of fear in their eyes.
The ancients believed in ghosts and gods, so it is reasonable for these soldiers to have such expressions.
After the captain on night patrol heard this, he saw the fearful expressions on the faces of the soldiers and shouted: "It was just a disturbance just now. It's not surprising. Let's continue patrolling."
However, the soldiers were whispering in low voices.
In the grass, Zhang Hu lowered his head and said, "Boss, it doesn't work!"
Lu Meng shouted: "Bullshit, you just tried it and you said it didn't work. Don't worry, let's wait a little longer and slowly arouse their curiosity, and we will definitely succeed in the end." After a pause, Lu Meng sighed.
Said: "It's a pity that Ma Teng's army is too large, and the troops are not scattered. If the troops are scattered, we can still induce them with benefits, but now we can only use this crude method."
After Liu Yang heard this, he immediately stopped.
After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Lu Meng nodded and signaled to start again.
Immediately, the clear and melodious chirping of birds sounded in the night sky again.
The sound rang out under the silent night sky and immediately attracted the soldiers who were patrolling the night. They turned around and saw another figure quickly disappearing into the grass.
In an instant, the soldiers' eyes widened.
At the same time, a gust of cold wind blew by. The soldiers on patrol at night felt cold in their bodies. They felt cold on the soles of their feet, and there were expressions of fear on their faces. The captain who had previously scolded them felt very angry when he saw the bearlike behavior of each of the soldiers.
He thought for a while, if he didn't solve the situation in the grass outside the camp, he might not be peaceful the whole night.
Therefore, the captain decided to go out to observe and found out that it was just a sign of trouble.
The captain shouted, randomly selected ten soldiers, and walked out of the camp.
He did this just to prove that there were no ghosts in the grass, but it was just caused by cold flying blowing by. The captain led the soldiers, lit torches, and quickly left the camp.
When Lu Meng saw the captain coming with a torch, an idea came to his mind.
He turned around and asked, "Which of you has any copper coins?"
In the army, soldiers rarely carry copper coins on their bodies. Many soldiers in Langya Camp shook their heads. Fortunately, because of the large number of soldiers, they finally took out strings of copper coins. Lu Meng took all the copper coins.
Quietly, he stretched out his hand and sprinkled it on the ground, and then gradually introduced the copper coins into the dense grass.
In this way, he would have a chance to take action.
Lü Meng led the soldiers to scatter copper coins along the way and retreated from the dense grass to the dense forest nearby, so that the soldiers in the camp could not see the situation clearly. Lü Meng did this to prevent the soldiers in the camp from discovering the situation. Because the captain led
When the soldiers came out, the soldiers in the camp were also looking carefully, so Lu Meng had to be careful and not be careless in the slightest.
After a while, the captain arrived with soldiers.
They were holding torches and could clearly see things on the ground.
The captain believed that there were no ghosts. He looked upright and walked forward arrogantly, so he did not find the copper coins on the ground. However, the soldiers behind the captain were different. Every soldier was cautious and very cautious. Many soldiers were more cautious.
I stared at the ground and moved forward slowly, for fear of encountering ghosts.
When the soldiers were about to approach the grass, a soldier let out a low cry and squatted down.
The soldier stopped and immediately attracted the attention of the other soldiers.
Immediately afterwards, the captain also discovered the situation on the ground. He lowered his head and found that the ground was covered with copper coins, and they were heading into the dense forest next to the grass.
Seeing this situation, the captain's eyes suddenly lit up.
Lu Meng was hiding deep in the dense forest. When he saw Ma Teng's soldiers stopped, his heart skipped a beat.
Success or failure all depends on this moment.
Ps: The fourth update is completed, it’s time to call it a day and take a break.
