Indeed, the team that dispersed during the search must have gathered when setting up camp.
Since it was in a mountain forest and not a real battlefield, the entire search team, with one battalion as a unit, lit a fire and cooked food when it was dark, and prepared to rest.
They didn't have tents or sleeping bags from the guard camp, so they could only lie down on the ground.
I didn't care about exposing myself any deeper. I kept climbing up the mountain for a long time and had to explore the ground while walking. Not only my legs and feet were tired, but my mind was also tired.
This guard camp is really shady. If you can't beat them, they'll just use these tricks!
"When you encounter those idiots, you must smash their buttocks with arrow shafts!"
"There's so much nonsense... I wish I had a basin of hot water to warm my feet so I can sleep."
"It's only half a day! There are still two and a half days...this leg must not be ruined by running. The Sa family is a horse infantry, and now they are marching like you and other infantry troops. How can you bear this crime?"
…
Not far away, the guard camp was lurking in the grass and shrubs half a mile away.
Hearing such gossip, I was speechless.
With such distressed legs and feet, it seems that they really need to be rescued... Don't rush, wait a little while, the escort camp will save you the pain of marching tomorrow.
The prince said that he should act just after the prince's hour.
I don’t understand why it has to be at that time, but I’m sure His Majesty is right.
Since before the exercise, according to the arrangements made by the Crown Prince, although the guard camp has traveled a longer distance, no one has been injured so far. This is the strategy of His Highness the Crown Prince.
…
"Enemy attack..."
"Ah...the guard camp is here..."
Fortunately, this one didn't scream enemy attack.
"According to the court's exercise documents, you are already dead. Don't mess with the rules!"
Two thousand fighting against five hundred, regardless of personal bravery or taking advantage of others' unpreparedness, it is absolutely overwhelming in terms of numbers.
Therefore, from the beginning of the attack, the Forbidden Army had no time to react...the shouting was all done after being contaminated with guava powder.
This is normal and should be expected. After all, it is not a real death, and no one really enforces it strictly...
"Your Highness, we have determined that this battalion has suffered casualties..."
Uh... I'm sorry, it's so late at night that I can't see clearly. This adjudication team was actually infected with guava powder by the guard camp.
The adjudication team has long been looking forward to the arrival of the escort camp, and now it is finally here.
It's not that the adjudication team has any inclination, but it's quite tiring to follow the imperial army searching the mountain.
When the two sides are fighting, the adjudication team only needs to accompany one side. I thought that the escort battalion was exhausted and it would be better to follow the imperial army... Maybe it is really better, but this is too much.
It was uncomfortable to walk my legs for a long time without stopping.
Now that's good, the soldiers of the first battalion have been wiped out by the escort battalion. With the decision of this battalion, we can stop work.
"Thank you for your help..."
It was so dark that it was impossible to see who it was, so Zhao Xi just said this casually in the direction of his anger.
Don't think that just because you are the prince, you can be awesome. Zhao Xi understands very well that in the dynasty, let alone the prince, he is as polite to everyone as the official, especially to the censors and admonishers.
Without further ado, the injured battalion of the Forbidden Army was rescued, and the escort battalion crossed the ridge diagonally...
The time between one and two o'clock in the morning is the time when people sleep the deepest and deepest.
Although the Forbidden Army also arranged sentries, because no one knew that this was not a battlefield, the sentries were just for show... Even if they were more vigilant, it would be easy for the guard battalion to attack and kill them.
Therefore, at the end of the Chou period, the escort battalion had completed its set goal and killed three battalions of Imperial Guard soldiers.
"Your Highness, this road looks like the way the escort camp went up the mountain the day before yesterday."
By coincidence, after attacking and killing three Forbidden Army camps, at the messy stall on the mountainside, the guard camp turned out to be on the original way up the mountain.
"Identify the traces... Mr. Wen will not let this line go, right?"
Wen Yanbo is not a rookie, and he is not without soldiers. There is no reason to let go of the traces of the escort camp.
really……
"Your Highness, there are indeed traces and there are many people..."
Uh... what is this word? Many? How many are many?
"Instructor Lu, please record the words you just used to Cao Du! The regulations of the guard camp are clearly written, and the report must not be expressed in indefinite terms such as "many, a few, etc."
It seems that the small victory achieved in this day and night has made the guard camp a little complacent. Even Cao Lin, an old soldier, has made mistakes.
Yu Junlu and Zhao Xi have never been affectionate, and the same goes for my cousin.
"In a surprise attack, if the opponent's number is more than twice that of the escort camp, after causing chaos, quickly disperse and evacuate Wanyin Mountain, and gather at the base of the mountain."
Is it lucky or unlucky? Before running far to the top of the mountain, the guard camp saw the camp area.
"Your Highness, the number of people is five thousand, which is the number of ten capitals."
It's no longer ambiguous now.
This group of forbidden troops was the most vigilant group tonight. After all, they were among the vanguard troops advancing along the traces. They felt that they should be the closest to the guard camp, so even the sentries were working hard to hold on.
"Enemy attack..."
Then, then it was all chaos.
The escort battalion was immediately disbanded and asked to arrive at the assembly area in an hour, and other measures were taken accordingly...
Those who are prepared for battle or not are basically taking advantage. This is why history books often record cases of surprise attacks.
This Wanyin Mountain is no exception. Even in the final encounter near the top of the mountain, the guard camp still had some advantages with two thousand against five thousand... Mainly because they were not prepared for a real battle at all, they were just stirring up trouble.
, and then run away... If you come after me, I'm sorry, you will definitely be stained.
Throughout the night, the entire Wanyin Mountain finally became quiet until around Yin time.
"Count the number of people in each battalion..."
This time, Zhao Xi also knew that it was impossible for the guard camp to escape unscathed, and there would definitely be damage, especially to the unlucky guy who was chased by a dozen people because he harassed one.
In that case, no matter how proficient the soldiers in the guard camp were at hiding and lurking, they would not have a chance. They would definitely be flanked by the pursuers and the imperial troops encamped at the foot of the mountain.
"Your Highness, there are seventeen people who did not arrive on time."
Lu Gongzhu was reluctant to say that it was damaged, or to put it mildly, that he did not arrive on time... With the legs and feet and the ability to identify directions that the guard camp has developed over the years, is it possible that he will not arrive on time?
Seventeen people...it's pretty acceptable.
"The whole team gathered and continued to the Forbidden Army camp. We will still rest in the camp today."
"Your Highness..."
Zhao Xi understood what Lu Gong was trying to say. The so-called injuries were not real injuries. Those soldiers would definitely have to face the husband. So...
"Uncle Ji, I believe in the soldiers of the guard camp because I believe in the anti-interrogation training courses of the guard camp."
…
As usual during court time, Wen Yanbo in the commander's tent tidied himself up at the end of the day. He and Fu Bi were having a meal, thinking about how much they could advance today and how much they could shrink the encirclement...
"Your Majesty, between midnight and Mao last night, nearly 20% of the Imperial Army was damaged..."
Uh... Wen Yanbo didn't even care about the food in his mouth and opened his mouth to say something...
