Chapter 3: Prepare for a night visit to the enemy camp
Bei Liangye tentatively spoke, but he also knew in his heart that if this was an ordinary poison, how could it bother the old general who had fought on the battlefield all his life.
"Don't hide it from Your Highness, the minister has tried many methods, even if you don't inhale this black smoke, you will still be poisoned and unconscious, and more than a thousand soldiers have been damaged!"
At the mention of this, Ruan Fengting's eyes suddenly lit up, and something was about to gush out and stop.
Every time he returned from a defeat, he took his soldiers to bury his brother who had died before, and it was so painful.
"You take the main palace with you, and at night, you will sneak into the enemy camp with the main palace to find out the enemy's situation."
Bei Liangye clamped the horse's belly and took the lead on the road, this wave of barbarians is no longer at the border, and has infiltrated several cities not far from the emperor, and is attacking the city, and now he must kill these barbarians.
Seeing that Bei Liangye had already driven on the road first, Ruan Fengting thought about it, and ordered his lieutenant generals to go down, asking them to arrive before dawn tomorrow, and he hurried with Bei Liangye first, preparing to sneak into the enemy camp after dark.
Outside Ishihara City, the barbarians have been stationed for many days, once they conquer this city, they will not be far from the imperial capital, which is the place where the imperial capital must pass, and it is also a very well-defended place.
Ishihara Castle, famous for its name, is made of stones, and there is a small amount of fuel on the wall, and once an enemy soldier tries to attack the city, the fuel will fall down the city wall, and a fire will be lit to form a barrier to prevent the enemy from climbing the wall.
In addition to the fuel on the city wall, there are also a lot of arrows, each arrow is wrapped in fuel, the tail is made of a spiral design, the whole arrow can fly for five miles, and it directly becomes a nightmare for enemy soldiers after ignition.
"Wizard, can you storm the city today?"
The Barbarian Leader was a nine-foot-tall giant armed with a stone axe tied to a boulder, capable of flying several ordinary soldiers with a single axe.
Known as the Wizard, he was a gray-robed man, with a gray mask and a chain around his neck made of scorpion-tail pins, only five feet high, and an indescribable stench emanating from his body.
"No, this wizard is divining today, a great omen, in my opinion, we should hurry up and go back to meet the king!"
The wizard held two beads as black as ink in his left hand, and began to pinch with his right hand, and in a moment his face was as white as earth.
"What? Get back? No way! I don't believe it, those people who don't have the courage can break your poisonous smoke, even if it is broken, there is no ghost crying wolf howling formation, what are you afraid of! It's really not good, and my old cow is not a vegetarian. ”
The barbarian leader looks a little silly, but when it comes to real calculations, he is not easy to fool.
"You!"
The wizard was angry, and the king asked him to accompany this big bull to break through the Central Plains in one fell swoop, and he was very reluctant, but he thought that once he broke through the Central Plains, he would not only be able to have half of the country, but also get the princess who had been coveted, so he followed the big bull.
Now that the omen of the great evil has been calculated, this big bull has come to the strength, saying that he is unwilling to withdraw from the army, and the situation is not right for a while, he has to think of a way back.
Anyway, he just came with him, and he didn't call him to keep the bull safe. Thinking like this, he finally let go of the heart he was carrying.
Bei Liangye and Ruan Fengting took the first step, and when the sun was about to set, they arrived at Ishihara City, and the city lord Shi Man had been waiting for a long time.
"I didn't know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had arrived, and the ministers were disappointed."
Although Shi Man is a rough man, he still understands the etiquette, and he has already prepared wine and food when he welcomed the prince and others into the mansion.
"No need to be polite, you shouldn't drink alcohol today, eat simply, and the palace will go to the enemy camp with General Ruan Lao to investigate the enemy's situation."
Bei Liangye sat down, looked at a table of dishes, handed the wine to the maid on the side and took it down, thinking about how to go deep into the enemy camp for a while.
"What? You, you want to go deep into the enemy camp? ”
As soon as Shi Man's words came out, he felt that something was wrong and quickly knelt down, and said again-
"The minister lost his words, the minister just felt that the wizard was too secretive, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still, or the master of safety."
Bei Liangye waved his hand and signaled him to stop, he didn't think about the wizard, when he was in the Great Northwest, he met a divine doctor, saying that he was destined for him, and he kept his body in order, so he thought about exploring the enemy camp.
Moreover, Ruan Fengting also said that as long as he was not poisoned, this move was not unsafe.
"Brother Shi Man, don't worry too much, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has fought against barbarians many times in the Great Northwest, so I think it's safe."
Ruan Fengting knew about what happened to the prince who was different from ordinary people, but the less people knew about this matter, the better, and he didn't plan to explain too much.
"That being the case, this is the deployment map of the enemy army that came with great difficulty, it is just an approximation, but I hope His Royal Highness the Crown Prince can use it."
Shi Man handed the map to the prince's hand, this is the deployment map that he came by chance, it is absolutely reliable, once he can pass through the black smoke poison, he can directly smash the Yellow Dragon and break through the barbarian defense line in one fell swoop.
Bei Liangye took the deployment map, glanced at it slightly, and was shocked at the moment, how familiar he was with the drawing method of this deployment map, this was in the Great Northwest, the old magic doctor's handwriting, absolutely not wrong, he once also drew a deployment map, so that he could successfully expel the barbarians.
He investigated the identity of the divine doctor several times later, but he couldn't find any clues anyway, not even the Ninth Brother's Xinyu Pavilion couldn't find the slightest clue.
"General, this palace thinks that we will ...... like this for a while"
Bei Liangye clicked a few times on the deployment map, those are all places where there are no guards, although there may be other dangers, but the way the barbarian soldiers communicate is very weird, once the barbarian soldiers are alarmed, even if they are directly obliterated, the news will be transmitted to the leader, and then they will be exposed.
Ruan Fengting nodded, he understood Bei Liangye's thoughts, fighting against the barbarian army, he had also suffered a lot of secret losses, no matter what other dangers there were in the place where there were no guards, but for now, it was the best choice.
"In this case, the minister will not disturb His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the old general to discuss, the minister will leave first, once necessary, you will light the signal flare, and the minister will lead the troops to arrive."
Shi Man saw that the two had already discussed, and it was not good to say anything more, so he just put the flare on the table, and then got up and exited the door.
The sky was gradually darkening, and Bei Liangye and Ruan Fengting were already fully prepared, just waiting for midnight to pass and go to the enemy camp.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, the old minister shouldn't have asked, is the little girl good?"
Speaking of Ruan Wanwan, Ruan Fengting's expression darkened, this daughter has been wronged at home, and her nature is too kind, he is really afraid that she will be in the prince's mansion......
"Don't worry, general, it's okay tonight, she can't and won't be fine in the Prince's Mansion."
Bei Liangye opened his mouth, and suddenly appeared in front of him when Ruan Wanwan stopped him, his delicate and soft appearance, and his heart suddenly softened a lot.
