The night is getting deeper, the cold is getting heavier, and the gusts of north wind blowing through the light of the Hun camp are flickering brightly and darkly, and all the Hun soldiers who are patrolling can't help but shrink their necks.

Nanying followed closely behind Ma Dai, watching him go forward as if no one was around, but whenever he saw the oncoming person, he must be the first to ask questions, so that the Huns on the opposite side did not dare to slack off, and did not dare to make branches, and could not help but secretly praise, this action brought Ma Dai with him, it was really a wise choice.

"General, please look!" Ma Dai suddenly slowed down his steps, and said in a low voice: "In front of the left, there is the camp where those Han people are hiding!" ”

Nan Ying looked coldly, and vaguely saw that there were five or six closely adjacent Xiongnu military tents dozens of steps away, and the interval was very different from the Xiongnu tents elsewhere, obviously to ensure their independence and secrecy. Based on the fact that a military tent can accommodate eight people, even if the number is halved, this group of Han people will have at least twenty or thirty people. It seems that it is necessary to gather all the men to sneak here, and if he is caught by surprise, he will have a chance to control the Han people before the night watchmen even notice......

Just as Nanying's mind was turning, he suddenly saw two Huns walking not far away, and called a few words in front of a Hun camp.

"What did they say?" Nan Ying's heart moved, and he secretly made a gesture, causing the whole team to slow down again.

"It seems to mean ......" Ma Dai carefully recalled the vaguely recognizable Xiongnu language, and then said: "Just invite your guests to discuss the big tent!" ”

"Shan Yu?" Nan Ying raised his eyebrows: "Do you mean the Marquis of the Beard Bone?" ”

"It can only be him!" Ma Dai nodded.

"Keep up with them!" Nan Ying watched several figures lift the curtain and follow the two Huns to the depths of the camp: "This is an opportunity...... Hopefully, some valuable intelligence can be discovered. ”

"Yes!" All of them work together to initiate a low response.

"Look what the hell they're up to! Then ......" Ma Yunluo's beautiful eyes flashed with coldness: "Clean them up together!" ”

As the depth of the camp continued to deepen, the patrol of the Huns gradually became denser, from time to time someone with a vigilant gaze towards Ma Dai and his party, fortunately Ma Dai is still calm, always the first to drink out the night patrol password, so that the other party is suspicious.

However, the most worrying thing finally happened, when the tall Shan Yu tent in the distance was finally faintly visible, an oncoming Hun general suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Ma Dai, stared at his eyes and drank a few words of Xiongnu words.

Nanying and the others screamed in their hearts, but when they saw Ma Dai in a hurry, they bowed unhurriedly, answered a few words fluently, and bowed to the backs of the Han people not far away.

The doubts in the eyes of the Hun generals immediately disappeared, grinned, showed a gloating smile, and reached out to pat Ma Dai's shoulder, and then led a group of subordinates to staggered by.

"It's dangerous! He's supposed to have discovered that we're not part of the night patrol in this area! Wang Yan raised his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, and then he looked at Ma Dai and wondered: "What did you just say, and the Huns actually immediately dispelled their suspicions?" ”

"He was indeed suspicious, and asked how we could rush here instead of the soldiers and horses around the big account?" Ma Dai smiled and said, "So I replied that we temporarily gave up the tent to those Han people to live, but we don't know the specific area of the night patrol, and we are preparing to take over the night patrol mission!" ”

Wang Yan was stunned, and then raised his big finger: "Brother, there is really you!" What a hurry! ”

"This mission is over, don't go back to Liangzhou!" Nanying was also admired in his heart, and he loved Ma Dai more and more: "Just follow the general, and you have to make a name for yourself, so that you can return home!" ”

Ma Dai was stunned for a moment, and then said in ecstasy: "Thank you for the general's appreciation!" "Life in Liangzhou is boring and boring, how can you follow the general to fight the world to be exciting? Don't say anything about the marquis and worship the generals, just follow the left and right and you will be inexhaustible for life! Otherwise, how could a peerless Tianjiao like Ma Chao who is above the top willingly devote himself to his command?

"Good job! In front of the account, I need talents like you......" Nanying showed a smile, and suddenly smiled: "They are about to enter the account...... Fast! Trying to find a way to get the guard's attention, Ben was going to get closer! ”

Ma Dai was indeed very fast, and as soon as Nanying's words fell, he fell to the ground with a "sigh", and even Ma Yunluo and the others who were traveling with him did not react.

The eyes of dozens of nearby guards looked at each other blankly, not understanding the situation at all.

Ma Dai sat up "with difficulty", first let out a painful snort, and then screamed in Hun dialect: "Your mother, I fell open from the knife wound during the day, and it hurt me to death!" ”

He pointed to Nanying and said, "You guys, why don't you go get a torch?" The wound is open, help me re-bandage it...... All deaf! ”

Although Nanying couldn't understand the Huns, he heard Ma Yunluo whisper in his ear: "Take the torch!" His heart was immediately bright, and he couldn't help but be amazed by Ma Dai's eagerness, and hurriedly let out an "oh oh" sound, taking the opportunity to go to the camp closest to Shan Yu's big tent...... On one side of each tent, a wooden frame with torches placed diagonally is an excellent reason to get close to the tent.

Several eagle guards who heard Ma Yunluo's whispers also understood, and pretended to be panicked and covered Nanying's journey together.

Ma Dai swept his eyes around, and saw many Huns watching from afar, quite a lot of teasing, and couldn't help but be angry: "Is it funny? Lao Tzu was injured in the war during the day, and he was forced to patrol the night at night, and he didn't let people live? ”

Some of the Huns heard this, and couldn't help but show a trace of the sadness of the rabbit and the fox, although the Huns had loose military discipline and had always been unruly, some people kindly reminded: "Brother, don't say more." If you make any more noise in front of the big tent, you will still suffer! Let's go! ”

When Ma Dai heard this, the anger on his face gradually subsided, and he saw that his companion with the torch also turned around, took the opportunity to stand up from the struggle to get off the stage, and staggered away with the support of several people.

Seeing Ma Dai and the others gradually drift away, some of the guards near the big tent were silent, some thoughtful, and some showed disdain, but none of them noticed that the "Huns" night patrol team that was leaving was silently missing a person.

Nanying hid in the backlight and shadow of the military tent, and his sharp gaze quickly swept more than ten steps away from the big tent, and soon locked on a wooden sink that was close to the big tent. The wooden trough was very different from the ordinary trough of drinking horses, not only was it wide and square, but also elaborate on workmanship, and it was even decorated with a circle of cloth, apparently for the purpose of providing drinking water for the large tent alone, and it was the most suitable hiding place.

Those who are worried want to cross the distance of more than ten steps without knowing it, but it is difficult to climb to the sky. This short distance was at least within the visual range of more than ten guards, and if a figure moved, they could even detect the difference with just their peripheral vision.

Nanying was at a loss, watching the Han people enter the tent under the guidance of the Huns, and couldn't help but feel like a cat scratching, but suddenly heard the sound of dense footsteps behind him, and he was overjoyed.

A group of night guards unhurriedly stepped onto the passage between the large tents and headed into the distance, and the guards glanced at each other with a glance, and immediately turned their gaze elsewhere.

The Southern Eagle flashed ghostly and stuck to the back of the last person of the Night Patrol like a shadow, although the figure was also swaggering, but there was no trace of sound in a strange way. At the same time, he also carefully avoided the direction of the firelight that might expose him, so that the person in front of him was completely unaware. When passing through the wooden trough, Nanying took advantage of the cover of the team in front of him, like a civet cat rolling, and quickly retracted under the wooden trough. And he was hidden under the wooden trough, and unless someone deliberately leaned over and lifted the wrapped cloth, it would be difficult for anyone to discover his existence.

Nanying took a deep breath and tried to enter the ethereal realm of "tranquility", and at the same time gathered his ears, and immediately collected all the wind and grass in the big tent.

“…… Southern Eagle is already at the end of the crossbow, why not attack at night? Otherwise, I am afraid that it will change later! A fluent Han voice sounded slowly, apparently one of the Han people who had just entered the account.

Nan Ying's heart was slightly relieved, although he missed the cold words of both sides and did not find out the identities of those Han people, but he heard the main topic in time.

"Humph! You say it lightly! A stout voice said in jerky Chinese: "This king has been attacking all day, and he has already suffered heavy casualties, how can he still have the strength to attack?" What's more, night fighting is not what my Huns are good at, and the enemy army is defending the walled city, in the words of your Han people, it is to attack the enemy's strength with your own shortcomings, isn't it self-destruction? ”

Nanying was slightly surprised to hear it, although the Southern Xiongnu have always been pro-Han, very Sinicized, and there are many nobles who are proficient in Chinese, but this Marquis of Xubu Bone not only speaks of this king, but also cites scriptures and classics, and also dabbles in the Han people's art of war, which is by no means comparable to the leaders of the idle and rough Hu people.

"That's not a word alone!" The Han man was obviously an eloquent man, and immediately said without thinking: "According to our intelligence, the Southern Eagle Army is only 3,000, and it has been fighting hard for days, the logistics are difficult to continue, and the wounded are even more difficult to count, and its combat strength has dropped sharply. Even if there is now an extra group of stragglers from the Great Qin (i.e., the ancient Chinese name for Rome), the two sides not only lack war cooperation, but also have a temporary combination of interests. ”

The man's voice paused, as if he was observing the reaction of the Marquis of the Beard Gudu, and then said: "Even though Shan Yu has suffered some losses during the day, it is conceivable that Nanying's side has also suffered heavy losses, if he doesn't cut the grass and eradicate the roots as soon as possible, once Nanying is relieved, he will definitely launch a crazy revenge on Shan Yu!" ”

Speaking of this, the man suddenly sneered: "Shan Yu should know that with the current strong strength of the Southern Eagle side, if you want to deal with you Huns, it is really only a matter of hand!" ”

"What do you say! Do you want to cross the river and tear down the bridge? The angry voice of the Marquis of Subu Gudu sounded: "If it weren't for your encouragement, how could this king have attacked thousands of miles recklessly?" ”

Nan Ying was shocked in his heart, originally he only thought that it was the old grudge of the Xubu Bone Duhou for the sake of calling the Chuquan brothers, so he came to commit it, but he didn't know that he was instructed by others! Who will it be?

"Alone in anger!" The man changed his tone of sincere fear: "Everyone in the world knows about the dispute between you and the Huchuquan brothers, and Nanying is the backer of Huchuquan's side. If Southern Eagle is defeated, what threat does the Huchuquan brothers have to you? In other words, isn't dealing with Southern Eagle the only way out for you? ”

"You ......" The Marquis of Xubu Gu was obviously angry and angry, but he was speechless, he gasped a few times, and suddenly sneered: "Do you still know that Nanying is the backer of Huchuquan's side?" Then at this moment, the cavalry of Huchuquan is less than one hundred and fifty miles away from here, and they are coming to help in the starry night! You order this king to attack immediately, once the Huchuquan cavalry arrives halfway and fights with the southern eagle back and forth, this king will die without a place to be buried! ”

Nanying was relieved to hear this, it turned out that the Huchuquan brothers were not ungrateful, as long as they came to their aid, the balance of victory would be reversed.

"Is that the case?" The Han man pretended to suddenly realize: "No wonder I have been hiding 5,000 elite soldiers in the snow and have not launched it for a long time, I only thought that I wanted to defeat the enemy in a battle tomorrow." Now it seems that you just want to use this army to work hard and eliminate the tired army of the Huchuquan brothers in one fell swoop...... Shan Yu is really calculating! ”

"You, you're ......" Beard Guduhou suddenly stuttered.

"Shan Yu Mo should be clever and delusional about the right and left between us and Nanying! Do you think that as long as you eliminate the Huchuquan brothers, Yu Yu's position alone will be as stable as Mount Tai? The first one in the Southern Eagle will crush you! What's more......" The Han man's voice was gloomy: "Don't forget, how did you replace Qiangqu?" Without the funding and support of my father-in-law, can you succeed in ascending to the throne? We can help you up, and of course we can pull you down! ”

Southern Eagle's surprise is not trivial. The dispute between the Marquis of Xubu Gudu and Qiangqu is an internal dispute, and it turns out that there is a mastermind behind the scenes who plans to promote it, and even the Huchuquan brothers are unaware of it.

"Mr. Feng, you misunderstood!" The Marquis of Xubu Gu was obviously relented, and he smiled bitterly: "This king has already said that it is not that he is unwilling to move troops, but that the Huchuquan brothers will arrive at noon tomorrow at the latest, and if this king can't attack Nanying in a hurry, he will be defeated!" ”

Mr. Feng? Nan Ying's mind was spinning, but he couldn't think of the origin of this Mr. Feng at all. At this stage, except for Feng Fang, the assistant lieutenant of the eighth lieutenant in the original West Garden, he really can't think of any other characters surnamed Feng. However, he also has a relationship with Feng Fang, and the voices of the two are completely different.

"Shan Yu rest assured!" Mr. Feng changed his soft tone again, obviously a master of playing tricks, and he said lightly: "There has been an arrangement for the contempt, and the soldiers and horses of Huchuquan will be 'greeted' along the way, and he will not be able to arrive here until the day after tomorrow at the earliest!" ”

"Oh? If that's the case, it's a big deal! The Marquis of the Beard Bone exclaimed: "Your lord is really a last resort! ”

"Is that more than that?" Mr. Na Feng said proudly: "In order to succeed in the first battle, I also bought two soldiers and horses of Karasuma Lord Qiu Liju and Nanlou, and I will come to help tomorrow at the latest...... Didn't the Karasuma people make an alliance with you, the Huns? The combination of the two of you is even more victorious! How is it? Is there any concern for Shan Yu now? ”

Nanying's heart sank, now that Huchuquan is stumped, the strength of the two sides is already strong and I am weak, and with the addition of the Karasuma people, the situation is even more dangerous...... Who is Mr. Feng's master? It seems to be an undying enemy, bent on putting himself to death!

"What? Guishang also invited Karasuma people? The Marquis of the Beard Bone seemed to be in a somewhat complicated mood, and hesitated: "Once they intervene, of course, our strength will be greatly increased, but ......"

"What the hell are you afraid of?" Mr. Feng said impatiently: "You might as well speak up!" ”

"Good! Then this king will be blunt! The Marquis of Subu Gudu said astringently: "Sir knows that my Xiongnu and Karasuma people are allies, so can you know who was the matchmaker in the first place?" ”

Nan Ying's heart moved when he heard this, and sure enough, he heard the Marquis of Xubu Gudu continue: "That person is none other than General Ma Yunluo, the sister of General Ma Shoucheng of Liangzhou. At that time, General Ma had not yet left Liangzhou, but now he was about to become the general's wife...... Not only her, but even General Shoucheng's parent-son Ma Chao is also in the opposite army at this time! ”

"I heard that Ma Yunluo and Ma Chao have a high prestige among the Karasuma people!" Mr. Feng seemed to suddenly realize: "It turns out that Shan is worried that when the Karasuma people are about to fight, they will be intimidated by the power of Ma Yunluo and Ma Chao and fight back?" Feel relieved! The Karasuma people don't know who they're fighting for! ”

"It seems that Mr. Feng doesn't know Ma Yunluo's influence among all ethnic groups back then!" The Marquis of Subu Bone sneered: "This king is worried that when the war starts tomorrow, as soon as the Karasuma tribes see that it is a battlefield showdown with the eldest lady of the Ma family, they will immediately turn back!" ”

"Of course I do!" Mr. Feng suddenly let out a series of sneering laughs, and then said slowly: "That's why I asked to launch an offensive tonight...... In the darkness of the night, it doesn't seem so difficult for your department to pretend to be a Karasuma person! ”

"What?" Not only was the Marquis of Su Bu Gu stunned, but even Nanying was cold. Who the hell is this Mr. Feng? How could you come up with such a poisonous plan? Once the Huns pretended to be the Karasuma people and attacked at night, not to mention whether they would be able to see through it, but after the Karasuma people heard about it, they would definitely feel speechless, and it was very likely that they would continue to be hostile in the dark. In this way, not only will the disparity between the strength of the enemy and our own be even greater, but it will also cut off one's own connections and resources among the Hu people, which will have a major impact on the future military situation.

"It's a good plan, but there's something wrong with it!" Just as Nan Ying was sweating from his forehead, he heard another unheard male voice in the tent: "I heard that Nan Ying is full of wisdom, he won't be easy to fall for it!" Even the Karasuma people will not willingly become our secret arrows, I am afraid that once this plan is implemented, it may be self-defeating, but it will completely force the Karasuma people to the side of the Southern Eagle! ”

"Oh? General Zhang's words are not unreasonable! Mr. Feng muttered: "So, according to the general's opinion, what should we do?" ”

Nan Ying was stunned, Mr. Feng was the only one who spoke before, and he almost regarded him as the person in charge. But at this time, it sounds like this General Zhang is at least not below Mr. Feng.

"I don't approve of tonight's assault!" The general said slowly: "On the contrary, what I am most worried about now is that the Southern Eagle will attack the camp tonight...... We need to deploy overnight immediately and see if this world-famous general will come forward and throw himself into the net! ”

"What?" The Marquis of Xubu Gudu and Mr. Feng shouted at the same time, and Nan Ying was even more shocked in his heart, cold sweat trickling down, and he was just thinking about it in his heart...... Who the hell is this person?!
