Chapter 40: The Shock of the First Battle

If the enemy dares to penetrate hundreds of miles into our territory, it must be the enemy's elite division, and there will certainly be no ambiguity in camping, defending, arranging formations, and setting up sentry posts.

The hour before dawn is the best time for us to do it, when people are most sleepy, and almost all night is safe, and it is also the time when they are most careful.

In the dead of night, the sound would be heard far away, and the galloping and vibration of the three thousand cavalry could easily arouse the alarm of the enemy, so we had to abandon our horses and walk twenty miles from the enemy camp......

Cheng Xin interjected at this time: "Then we have to send a few groups of scouts in advance, otherwise we will not be able to know the specific location of the enemy army and the details of the camping and defense." ”。

Han Shengwei: "You don't have to do this, just follow me." ”。

Cheng Xin really wanted to laugh, the sentence he just said was originally to play with Han Shengwei, how many people and horses hundreds of miles away he knows......?

But thinking about it like this, Cheng Xin was relieved: "Han Gongzi commanded." ”。

"It takes an hour to march twenty miles at night, and to walk. I looked at the march map, and the area was hilly, and we had to put out our torches when we were thirty miles away from the enemy, and we didn't have much time to ......."

"Please give an order to Mr. Han. ”。

Han Shengwei: "Eat now, and leave in half an hour!"

"Order!"

............

Half an hour later, the three thousand guards set off, Yue Xiaofei had to follow, and no one could persuade her.

After an hour, Xiao Ke was determined to be two hundred miles away from the enemy.

Three hours later, the 2,800 Guards switched to walking, leaving the 200 men who had not fully recovered to take care of the horses.

Four hours later, when the guards looked at the enemy camp up close, they were all frightened, not by the enemy's formation, but by Han Sheng.

Cheng Xin couldn't understand it, hundreds of miles away, he judged the situation of the enemy army almost accurately, is this still a person?

Yue Xiaofei was also stunned, but more of a thief, this little young man......

Han Shengwei waved his hand, and the guards quietly touched the camp tent assigned in advance, and there was no need to worry about the open and dark sentry at all, Xiao Ke had already solved them, but these guards could not know, they thought that the enemy army was too careless, and they didn't even set up a sentry.

There is nothing to fight in this battle, basically one-on-one, one person kills one, and the opponents are still asleep, which is equivalent to being placed there for the guards to kill.

Originally, each of the Dasong soldiers had a small cloth bag of quicklime, which was specially used to collect the left ear of the enemy they had slain, and to register their military exploits, but none of the guards brought it, because none of them believed that it could be true.

Searching the enemy's whole body and the armor they had removed, they did not find a small bag of quicklime, and it seemed that the enemy's method of registering military exploits was different from theirs, so they had to collect the useful things they had found, and the bloody enemy had to carry his left ear on his body.

Of course, Cheng Xin killed the officer, and collected not only the enemy's left ear, but also the enemy's flag and the officer's seal.

After Cheng Xin consulted Han Shengwei, he sent 2,000 people back to the place where the horse was abandoned to lead the horse, of course, on horseback, riding the enemy's war horse, and 3,000 war horses for you to choose.

The 800 men left behind cleaned the battlefield, and the light cavalry and fast troops like the enemy had no baggage, but there were several carts with them to carry grain, grass and tents.

According to the convention, the target of the attack is within a day's journey, and this should be the last camp of the enemy, and the cart must stay here, and the tent is put away and loaded, which is common sense, otherwise the target will be too big.

Therefore, Han Shengwei asked that everything be handled according to the routine, and only the corpse should be buried to clean up the bloodstains, but the corpse must be buried far away.

Leaving several corpses to arrange as an illusion of killing each other, and hiding two spirit stones on one corpse.

Clean up the traces of their march to and from the abandoned horses, but to preserve the traces of the march to the moon in the Fei camp, there is no need to deliberately clean the ruts, because there are no rut marks under the messy horseshoe prints.

A rare victory, the excited people were not sleepy, everything was packed up, the two men and horses gathered together, 3,000 soldiers, 6,000 horses, with captured armor and weapons, the guards marched to the Yueshuai camp in high spirits......

Han Shengwei chose to stay, and left twenty days of rations, after this battle, Han Shengwei's prestige has been established, and Cheng Xin will not say a word about any decision made by Han Shengwei.

Yue Xiaofei really couldn't understand Han Shengwei's decision, and after several struggles in her heart, she finally chose to stay.

Yue Xiaofei chose to stay, no matter what the reason, she could stay on the premise of being anxious to see her brother, Han Shengwei was very moved, but he couldn't show it, he could only hide it in his heart.

Han Shengwei took Yue Xiaofei to the edge of the dense forest far away from the battle site, except for eating three meals cooked by Yue Xiaofei, he didn't do anything for a whole day, and he didn't talk much.

When it was approaching evening, Yue Xiaofei couldn't help it and asked, "What do you want to do when you stay?"

"Wait for the rabbit".

"What does it mean to wait for the rabbit?"

"Just sit next to a tree and wait for the rabbit to hit the tree. ”。

“...... Haha......", Yue Xiaofei's tears of laughter were about to flow out, "Is there such a stupid rabbit...... Giggles ......".

Han Shengwei didn't say anything, she was happy, it was the first time she had laughed so heartily since the march.
