Chapter 542: Infiltration

Haisha asked Shen Leng how sure he was, and Shen Leng shook his head and replied that there was never any certainty in an abnormal battle.

At that time, Haisha was thinking, what is called abnormal fighting?

Shen Leng seemed to see his doubts and explained...... For example, Meng Chang'an in northern Xinjiang only led a few dozen people deep into the enemy country at a time, not for the purpose of fighting, but to destroy, harass, or obtain intelligence and draw maps to the greatest extent, which is an abnormal battle.

Run when you encounter a large group of people, and kill a small enemy.

Killing if you can, destroying if you can, and even extending to special missions such as assassinating people behind enemy lines are all abnormal battles.

In order to complete such a battle, it is not necessary to have more people, but in many cases, the fewer people the better, and to achieve the greatest victory with the least number of troops.

These words, when they were in Chang'an City, Shen Leng and Meng Changan studied them more than once, and when the two of them got together, they spent most of their time doing this, dispatching different people according to different terrains, and the two of them even thought of training a special scout team in Daning in the future.

Today's scouts are extremely capable of fighting individually, but what they lack is experience.

For a moment, the sea sand was a little incomprehensible.

He is a serious academy from the academy, and has always pursued a decisive battle with the enemy on the frontal battlefield, whether it is him or Wu Xinyu, they are all typical leading generals in Daning, and the representatives of their generation include Tang Baobao, Shi Podang, Tan Linghu, including Yan Kaisong and others in Eastern Xinjiang, and the representatives of the previous generation are the generals of the four frontiers, Tan Kyushu, Shi Yuanxiong, Tie Liuli, Pei Tingshan, and now Zhuang Yong, who is leading the troops in Southern Xinjiang.

And Shen Leng and Meng Changan have never been typical generals of this kind of Daning, but it does not mean that the two of them are weak in leading troops on the frontal battlefield, their minds are more flexible, and it is sophistry.

Night.

Shen Leng only brought two ten-person scouts, including Hong Zhao, who had entered the mountain with him before, these two ten-person teams were selected by Shen Leng from his own personal team and Hong Zhao's scout team, each of them was extremely strong in martial arts, and also had the ability to respond quickly that ordinary soldiers did not have.

The black uniforms melted them into the night, and the roar of the tigers in the mountains did not stop them.

Orion was pushed to the side of the cliff crack by the knife, in fact, the crack he came out of was only a few dozen meters away from the crack they found by Shen Leng, on the other side of the cliff, which was also blocked by thick vines.

Shen Leng stopped Orion, raised his hand to catch his chin, and pressed his hand down to signal Orion to listen to him.

"I only have a few words to say to you, and I hope you will listen carefully...... I don't trust you when I take your chin, I never trust the Seekers, I just want you to understand that you have no way back, even if you betray us this time, and after you go in, you shout and provoke the soldiers who come to Li, you run away and we die, but what about later? ”

"Can this granary guarantee that the people inside will live for five years? What if you can live for five years, ten years? Daning has destroyed Qiuli, the entire Qiuli is stepping on Daning's feet, only this Anzi Mountain remains, even if we don't attack, the people on the side will starve to death for ten years, you make your own choice, you take us in safely, I guarantee that all your relatives and even your friends are alive, if we die, in the future, Daning's soldiers will attack Anzi Mountain, and they will be slaughtered and not left behind. ”

Orion's face visibly changed after hearing this, and even in the moonlight, the fear on his face was palpable.

"I can even promise not to kill a single citizen."

Shen Leng patted Orion on the shoulder: "You are alive, maybe you are much happier as a subject of Daning than a subject of Ruan Tengyuan, the Daning Imperial Court will reduce your taxes, and in the future, your descendants will have books to read, have a career, and have a very good future, it is much better than you cutting off your children and grandchildren, our goal is Ruan Tengyuan, I don't think it is necessary for you to bury him." ”

Orion's face kept changing, and after being silent for a while, he nodded: "General, can you really guarantee that my family and relatives will survive?" ”

"You should trust me, Ning people will never go back on the promises they made."

Shen Leng said: "This is an obvious situation, and you should be easy to see clearly, even if you are ready to die, what about your child?" Wife and children, looking at your age, you should already have grandchildren, right? ”

Orion hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Yes, seven years old." ”

"He deserves to live well."

Shen Leng handed a hunting knife to Orion: "If you decide, go ahead and lead the way." ”

Orion took the hunting knife with trembling hands, was silent for a moment, then turned and walked to the cliff wall, and swung his knife to cut off those vines, now there is no need to ensure the secrecy of the crack, if he survives, it is impossible to go in and steal food and salt in the future.

"What's your grandson's name?"

Shen Leng asked.

Orion replied after a moment, "Yingtai." ”

Shen Leng snorted: "I remember, I promise that he will live well." ”

Orion took a deep breath and strode forward, diving headlong into the crack.

After more than half an hour, the hunter in front waved his hand to signal that he could stop, and Shen Leng squeezed over to look ahead, and through the crack he could see the faint light on the opposite side.

"Ruan Tengyuan ordered all the cracks in the granary to be plugged, but they couldn't find it here, this is behind the grain and grass pile, and I blocked it with straw."

Orion lowered his voice and said: "From here out is the material yard, in addition to the forage there is wood, the salt warehouse is hidden in the material yard, most of the soldiers do not know, outside the material yard is the granary, there are many grain hoards and cellars, after going out is a large open space, all the people are gathered there, if you want to get out, you have to go through there, and then outside is the barracks, out of the granary is the barracks, outside the barracks is the city pass." ”

Orion glanced at Shen Leng: "There are tens of thousands of troops here, and there are so many people, you actually have no chance to pass through." ”

The corners of Shen Leng's mouth hooked: "If you have a chance, it doesn't count, Ruan Tengyuan doesn't count." ”

He patted Orion on the shoulder: "After you go in, you will go to your family and relatives, so as not to be discovered, take them to the stockyard and hide in the salt storehouse." ”

Orion snorted, "Then I'll go in first." ”

Shen Leng nodded: "Be careful." ”

Orion hummed and crawled forward.

Shen Leng suddenly shouted: "Yingtai." ”

Orion didn't look back, and after a moment, he suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Shen Leng.

With a pop, a crossbow bolt went into his throat.

"If you have grandchildren, you have a family, how can you run away alone."

Shen Leng dragged Orion's corpse back, poked a knife into Orion's heart and twisted, Orion's eyes were full of hatred and anger, and there was also the last unwillingness before death, of course, there was a lot of fear.

"It's not a very long road, and this exit is only known to you, if you have a grandson you will take him out, even if you don't take your son you will take your grandson out."

Shen Leng pulled the corpse aside, turned around and ordered: "If you want to go in, everyone be careful, the road he led may not be the right one, and going out may not be the material yard, it may be the barracks." ”

"Whew."

Everyone whispered in response.

Shen Leng was the first to drill out of the crack, picked up the piled up straw and quietly looked around, where was the material yard, not far away were the military tents one by one, and the patrolling Qiuli soldiers could be seen walking back and forth under the lights, and Haisha, who had been fighting with Qiuli for so long, also said that never believe Qiuliren's words.

Shen Leng gestured back, and the scouts came out of the crack one by one, and after they came out, everyone was a little worried, the nearest tent didn't even have ten zhang, and the forage here was just because the barracks were Ruan Tengyuan's forbidden army, and he had a cavalry of about a thousand people.

If the hunters who came out first shouted, Shen Leng and none of them would want to get out alive.

Fortunately, it was already dark at this time, and although the cave was lit with torches and candles, this dark place would not be easily noticed.

Shen Leng pointed at Hong Zhao, pointed at another pro-soldier Shi Dang, and then pointed at himself, stretched out three fingers, nodded towards the nearest tent, and then motioned for the others to stay put.

The three of them crossed the haystack to the tent, and there were people inside who were talking and snoring, calculating that there was still nearly an hour before the time was left, and the time agreed between Shen Leng and Haisha was ugly, and they still had about two hours to get through, if they went early, even if they cut the drawbridge, it would be impossible for a few of them to hold it, and begged Liren to have enough time to destroy the drawbridge, for the sake of safety, Haisha would not bring the team up too early.

The distance between the tents and the tents is about ten meters, and few people move, and the people who seek to establish naturally will not think that the people from Daning actually quietly touched in, but if they want to go through the barracks to the city pass, how easy is it? Even if they passed through the barracks, how could they easily rush to the city gate and cut the rope of the drawbridge?

Shen Leng made a gesture, and the three of them took off the crossbow and checked it, then Shen Leng got up, suddenly opened the curtain of the tent and rushed in.

Even the crossbow was shot, and several Qiuli people who were sitting and talking were shot over before they even had time to shout, with the strength of the three of them, at such a close distance, it was not difficult to accurately shoot the throat.

Shen Leng pulled out the short knife, and the three of them moved quickly, there were a total of more than a dozen people in the tent, and half of them had their throats cut before they woke up.

From the time of entering the tent to the time everyone is killed, it is no more than twenty breaths.

Hong Zhao lifted the curtain and looked out, then gestured, and all the scouts quickly entered the tent.

"Got a change of clothes."

Shen Leng spoke in a low voice while taking off his battle uniform, he tied the red silk scarf lent to him by Haisha on his right arm, and pointed there: "There is a red cloth in the box, cut it and tie it, it is easy to identify when you go out." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps approaching outside, and far away, a Qiu Liren shouted in a very thick voice.

"Damn, you need me to shout every time, I don't know if it's your turn to change the guard soon?"
