At midnight, the hazy darkness hung over the camp, and the outcasts in the shacks and the recruits reunited with their families fell asleep, except for the bands of torch-armed soldiers patrolling the camp.

Ugly is the most sleepy time, but with his daughter lying on the dry grass Wang Gou Yu did not sleep, in order to let his daughter eat more, Wang Gou only ate very little food every day for half a month, so at night because of excessive hunger can not sleep.

Although Wang Gouyu has a crippled arm, the rest of his body is normal, and during the day, he has to do some other work with other young men who have not been selected to be soldiers, and he can't eat enough every day, which will affect his daytime labor.

After rubbing his shriveled belly, Wang Gouyu carefully got up from the pile of dry grass and quietly took out a large dozen knotted strings from the wooden frame of the shed.

The string is a discarded rope that the king dog collects during the day to help clean the ship's holds, and then takes time to arrange the knotted bird catching tools during the night's rest.

When they were young, rural men generally learned the craft of setting small traps with both hands, and used the traps set in the mountains and forests to catch small animals such as turtledoves and pheasants.

The tools for capturing small animals are easy to make, and Wang Gou often uses small traps made by himself to catch some small animals such as birds and hares when he escapes, and provides game for a family of three. After packing up a ball of rope and taking out a firewood knife for self-defense with his left hand, Wang Gouyu planned to take advantage of the bright moonlight to see the road and lay a few traps in the mountains and forests five or six miles away.

Ready with all the tools to set the trap, Wang Gouyu slowed down his steps and walked outside from the place where he had been sleeping.

There were more than ten people sleeping in the shack, with an area of more than 100 square meters, Wang Gouyu walked to the door of the house and inadvertently looked at Ding Fugui's sleeping place.

"It's strange, Ding Fugui has been mysterious these days, and he doesn't sleep in the shack at night."

Wang Gouyu muttered in a low voice, thinking that it was already very late, so he didn't think much about it, and walked softly out of the shack towards the mountains and forests a few miles away.

The moon stars are scarce, and the dappled moonlight is sprinkled under the trees, reflecting a blurred path, Wang Gou Yu entered the mountain forest, roughly found a suitable place, took out a firewood knife and began to dig in the grass.

In less than an hour, Wang Gou dug out three traps about 50 centimeters deep, deep inside and small outside, piled up the soil, put a small branch repaired with a firewood knife, and then spread a thin layer of green grass on it, sprinkled some grain crumbs on the grass, and the three traps were set up.

After digging the three traps, Wang Gou left the rope joints on his body neatly placed in the middle area of the three traps, and then tied the joints to two small wooden sticks, pressed the wooden sticks with two stones, and the components of the entire trap were complete.

patted the dirt on his body, stood up, and looked at the masterpiece in front of him, Wang Gouyu said with satisfaction: "It depends on you whether Erya and I can eat game, I hope that when I come here again tomorrow, God can appreciate a few turtledoves, pheasants and other small animals." ”

After muttering a few words to himself, Wang Gou Yu turned around and prepared to return the way he came. After walking less than a hundred steps back, Wang Gouyu vaguely saw a figure in the woods.

"Who would run into the woods in the middle of the night?" Wang Gouyu was puzzled, leaned up carefully, and then hid behind a bush when he was more than ten meters away from the figure.

The distance was close, and by the moonlight, Wang Gouyu recognized the figure in the woods as Ding Fugui, who lived in the same room as him.

Ding Fugui stood under a big tree, looking left and right from time to time, as if he was waiting for someone.

"No wonder I didn't see him in the shack, I ran here."

Recognizing that the person in the woods was Ding Fugui, who had been sneaky for the past two days, Wang Gouyu relied on the cautious habits he had developed during the escape, and did not rashly go out to ask him what he was doing at night, and carefully hid in the bushes and waited for about half an hour, and three sneaky figures came from outside the woods.

"How's it going in the camp? Did you find out the number of their troops? ”

Among the new three, a leader-looking man asked in Chinese with an Annan accent.

"Don't worry, my lord, the villain has been staring at it these days, and after nearly ten days of investigation, I have roughly figured out the situation of their troops."

Ding Fugui was waiting for these three people, and when he heard the other party's question, he hurriedly replied: "The villain secretly asked dozens of Tang people who were soldiers, and according to what they said and the villain's personal observation, it was determined that the total strength of the Tang people in Xialong was about 1,200 to 1,800 people, and according to the establishment of the Qing people, the troops of more than 1,000 people were divided into four battalion heads, which were served by several leaders of the displaced people who defected......"

Ding Fugui did not pause, and told the other party everything he knew.

Wang Gouyu wandered in Annan for a few years, and the three people who came to connect could easily judge that they were from the Annan government according to their accents and way of speaking, and in the middle of the night, they ran alone to a remote place to connect with the Annan officials, and told each other the truth in the camp. Such people are the most shameful.

Wang Gou held back the resentment in his heart, but he didn't expect to hear something even more hateful in Ding Fugui's mouth.

"Three adults, the villain observed that the Tang merchant ship was preparing to set sail tonight, and yesterday and today, the leader of the Tang Dynasty, Sun Bin, frequently inspected the troops and summoned the leaders of various units of the troops, so the villain guessed that Sun Bin was likely to leave tomorrow, and you adults could not let go of this good opportunity."

"How credible is this news?"

"At least seventy percent."

"Okay, if the news is true, this official will personally report to the Governor to ask for credit for you."

"Thank you, sir." ……

Ding Fugui and the three Annan people ended in less than ten minutes, and after they left, Wang Gouyu had not yet reacted from the shock of hearing the news.

"Ding Fugui told the officials in Annan, do they want to take advantage of Mr. Sun's departure to do something to the camp?"

Wang Gouyu finally had a terrifying possibility in his mind.

"No, this matter must be told to Mr. Sun, otherwise if the Annan people succeed, all the people in the camp will be finished."

Thinking of the possible fate of all the Chinese in the Annan army's extermination of the Xialong camp, Wang Gouyu no longer hesitated, immediately left the woods, and ran from another mountain road to the camp. The ugly time passed, the night was thicker, and Chen Shangfa, who led the patrol, couldn't help but feel a little sleepy.

One of the soldiers on the "Hello Sneez" patrol was so sleepy that he sneezed directly.

"The brothers are all in good spirits, and Mr. Sun has instructed that every patrol must be careful and careful, and be careful to let the enemy take advantage of the loopholes."

"Chief, the camp is our territory within a radius of dozens of miles, where is there a thief who is not long-eyed and dares to sneak attack us, in my opinion, the big leader is too careful." The soldier who had just dozed off grumbled.

"What so much nonsense, what the big chief tells me to do, you do it, and if you have the courage to talk to the big boss in person."

Chen Shangfa glared at Dayan, and scolded as soon as he opened his mouth.

"The big leader looks like a weak scholar, and it's even more scary than the leader to start a fire, I'd rather let the leader scold you a few words, than dare to say that the big leader is not to your face."

Sun Bin's true identity is only known to Ye Chenglin and Chen Shangfa, and externally it is claimed that Sun Bin is the leader of the Chinese armed forces, and Ye Chenglin and Chen Shangfa are several big leaders under Sun Bin.

"You little boys don't know how powerful the big leader is, and when you know in the future, you won't say that."

"Boss, can you tell the little ones about the big boss?"

"Yes, we don't know what kind of hero the big boss is, as soon as he came to Annan, he gathered several Chinese heroes under his command, and you will tell us, the leader!"

……

More than 20 patrol soldiers coaxed together, and Chen Shangfa suddenly gained momentum: "If you want to say that the big leader is powerful, you have to start from four or five years ago." Chen Shangfa had just made a start, and suddenly realized Sun Bin's strict order, and immediately interrupted: "Don't say it, don't say it, you little boys don't understand it." ”

"Why didn't you say it, Chief?"

More than twenty patrol soldiers were clamoring together, and Chen Shangfa was busy sending them away when he saw a figure running towards him.

"Leader Chen, Xiaomin has something important to see Mr. Sun immediately."

Unlike soldiers, ordinary Chinese such as Wang Gouyu generally called Sun Bin Mr.

"Go and go, and don't look at what time it is, the big leader has long slept and rested, how can I have time to see you." Before Chen Shangfa could speak, a few patrol soldiers spoke first.

"The matter is extremely urgent, if you miss a major event, the big leader will not spare you." Seeing that the soldiers stopped him, Wang Gouyu said eagerly.

"You stand aside first, and I'll ask him a few words."

Chen Shangfa stopped the soldiers from driving Wang Gouyu away, came to him and asked, "Since you know my name, tell me anything, and I will ask you to report to the big chief." ”

"Leader Chen, there are people in the camp who are colluding with Annan, and they plan to disadvantage the camp."

"What, you're not wrong?"

"The matter is important, how dare the small people deceive the leader."

"Platoon Commander Chen, you lead the team to continue patrolling, and I will take him to meet the big leader immediately."

Someone inside the camp colluded with Annan, and Chen Shangfa immediately felt that there must be a major conspiracy in it, so he immediately left the patrol force and took Wang Gouyu to report to Sun Bin.

In the center of the camp, in a simple tent, Sun Bin was woken up by a voice outside less than an hour after he slept for less than an hour, got up from the simple wooden bed, put on a thin cloth coat, Sun Bin opened his mouth to summon the soldiers on duty: "What's so noisy outside?" ”

"Camp Commander Chen took a person to visit Mr., and his subordinates saw that Mr. had just fallen asleep, and asked them to wait until dawn to come back, but the two did not comply, so they quarreled outside the tent."

"In the middle of the night, there is no big event, Camp Commander Chen will not see me at this time, you go out and let them in."

"Obey orders." The guards exited the tent and welcomed Chen Shangfa and the others in.

"Mr. Sun, there are people in the camp who are colluding with the Annan officers and soldiers, and the Annan officials plan to deal with us." Entering the tent, without waiting for Sun Bin to ask, Chen Shangfa immediately spoke.

"Where did Brother Chen hear the news?"

"When I was patrolling with troops, I met this brother, and he told me, Brother Wang, quickly report the news you know to Mr. Sun."

"Alas, Xiaomin just said." Wang Gouyu said what he heard sentence by sentence, Sun Bin was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then raised his head and glanced at the faces of Chen Shangfa and Wang Gouyu: "If what Brother Wang said is true, the situation in the camp will be critical!" ”

"What should Mr. Sun do now?" Chen Shangfa was not as calm as Sun Bin, and asked directly.

The guards listened to the order and ordered Battalion Commander Ye to lead the soldiers to search the situation within a distance of fifty miles around the camp, and ordered Regiment Commander Chen, Battalion Commander Wu and other officers above the battalion level to discuss matters in the conference room.

Brother Chen, you take Brother Wang to arrest Ding Fugui immediately. ”

Decisively giving various orders, Sun Bin straightened his clothes, and instructed as he walked towards the conference hall: "Execute the order immediately, and assemble in the conference hall in half an hour." ”

"Yes"......
