Chapter 10: Yanli is captured
Cheng Yong raised his head violently, and then slowly knelt down on one knee and replied in a deep voice: "My subordinates are willing to follow Your Excellency to attack the Cangya Country!" ”
Seeing this, all the soldiers knelt down and said neatly: "My subordinates are willing to follow Your Excellency to attack the Cangya Country!" ”
Yan Li stared at it and said in a deep voice: "Send Prince An back to the royal capital, and we will attack the enemy camp at night in a day!" ”
The day flies by and the night passes.
Dressed in a man's armor and covered with a grass-green cloak, she quietly approached the enemy camp in the dense forest, and in the night, it seemed to blend in with the surroundings, and there was no clue at all. On this day, she ordered Cheng Yong to take the soldiers to split trees and pick leaves in the rear, making similar grass-green cloaks, and having people pick fresh mint leaves to prepare for the night attack.
At this time, the soldiers are all dressed in grass-green cloaks and have mint leaves in their mouths to keep their brains clear, as if waiting for the hunters to prey on their prey, patiently approaching their prey little by little in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to kill them with one blow. This night raid on Yanli brought almost the elite of the entire military camp here, and when the country was in danger, these sons and daughters had already put life and death aside. Several soldiers surrounded Yanli in the middle to ensure its safety, and this was the biggest guarantee that Cheng Yong could do.
As the night deepened, Yanli also led the troops to finally reach the enemy camp not far away, but they still did not move, like real trees, just waiting. After waiting for about an hour, Yanli finally found an opportunity, a guard soldier seemed to be coming to relieve his hands, he and his companions said a few words and walked towards the dense forest, Yanli's eyes signaled Cheng Yong not to act rashly, and then slowly approached that side alone.
The soldier didn't notice anything unusual, he expertly unbuttoned his trouser belt, and even hummed a ditty. At this moment, Yan Li quickly approached him, covering the soldier's mouth with one hand, and the sword with the other had already grazed the soldier's neck, and he died before he could even tear off his pants.
Cheng Yong let out a long breath not far away when he saw this scene, God knows that his heart was about to rise to his throat, once Yanli missed, their night attack was equivalent to losing the opportunity! Simply this princess, Her Royal Highness really lives up to expectations! But he didn't see the trembling hand that Yanli had just held the sword and the pale face after killing someone.
Although she had been learning the sword for several years, she had never killed anyone, but now she had to kill, and there was still the warm skin temperature of the soldier in her hand, but he had turned into a cold corpse and fell at her feet.
The tip of Yanli's nose smelled a little blood in the air, and she even couldn't help but want to retch.
However, she couldn't. Her brother Wang is still seriously injured and has not yet recovered, she must buy him time to recuperate, she cannot retreat, she cannot be cowardly, she can only move forward. Didn't you learn the sword in the first place so that you could have the ability to protect your loved ones when danger arises?
The unconsciously clenched fist gradually loosened, and Yanli exhaled softly, and the brilliance in her black eyes had become firm.
Yan Li motioned to Cheng Yong to take off the soldier's armor and clothes lightly, this soldier was about the same height and size as Cheng Yong, and after he changed his clothes, he lowered his head slightly and couldn't see the difference at all in the night.
Cheng Yong stood beside Yanli, pointed to himself, and then pointed to the guards outside the Qixia State military camp, and made a gesture of killing his head, with the meaning of inquiry in his eyes. Yan Li shook her head and whispered a few words in Cheng Yong's ear.
After a while, Cheng Yong deliberately stood up and exposed his battle armor, shouting and scolding, "Damn it! There are wolves! ”
The sound was not heard much because of the distance, and several of his companions saw him stand up and shout, as if he were some wild beast, so a few people walked over to see the situation. The wild goose is dormant in the dark, killing with one blow. And Cheng Yong also wiped their necks when the other party was approaching, although Cheng Yong's skills are not as good as Yanli, but in the end he is also a deputy, and it is not an exaggeration to say that killing these ordinary soldiers is like slaughtering chickens.
Under the command of Yan Li, several people changed their clothes as quickly as possible, and Yan Li also chose the thinnest one to change into, she was already tall, and it was appropriate to change clothes at this time. A few people pretended to laugh and curse and returned to the camp as if nothing had happened.
At this point, it was midnight. Yan Li estimated that the enemy should have begun to be trapped, and the vigilance was rapidly declining at this time, which was the best time for a sneak attack. She released a firework bomb, and several of her own soldiers took down all the enemy guards around them with lightning speed, and then began to run towards the enemy camp as if they were panicked, shouting: "Oh no, no, no! Enemy attack! ”
The rear sergeants who saw the fireworks rushed out of the dense forest together, "Kill! The shouts shook the sky.
Cheng Yong and the others wore the military uniforms of the Cangya Kingdom and followed the Yanli straight into the depths of the camp, and the soldiers of the Cangya Kingdom looked at their military uniforms and they shouted that the enemy attack seemed to be preparing for a report, but no one went to stop them, but rushed to the outside of the barracks to fight with the army of the Luoyan Kingdom.
At this moment, Yan Li saw a tall soldier in a deputy's costume hurriedly running towards this side, as far as her intelligence was concerned, this was the biggest official in the barracks at present.
She hurriedly motioned to a soldier with a passer-by face and shouted, "My lord! My lord! Enemy attack! ”
Yanli quietly stopped at this moment, and in a sharp turn, he changed from reversing to following the flow of people to face the battle. She felt her heart beating a little fast, but she forcibly steadied herself, and gradually approached the deputy, gradually falling behind him, and the deputy was still running out with the soldiers in a hurry, unaware of the situation behind him.
The cold sword was unsheathed, Yan Li drew the sword and stabbed it into the heart of the deputy from behind, the deputy suddenly stopped his steps, and looked down in disbelief at the long sword that passed through his chest, this was Yan Shi's sword, he recognized, it was the man who broke into the barracks alone and took the general's head, he still remembers his face, remembers his sword.
Is that him? It's just that the deputy's head fell to the ground before he could turn around, and he would never know the answer.
"There's an enemy coming in!" The deputy was killed, and the soldiers in the rear saw it clearly, and they immediately shouted loudly, trying to trap Yanli.
At this time, Cheng Yong and the others mixed in the crowd and quietly protected Yanli in the middle, they were dressed in the battle uniforms of the Cangya Kingdom, coupled with Yanli's inconspicuous appearance, they soon blended in the chaotic crowd and pretended to be anxious and ran towards their army. In such a chaotic scene, they gradually disappeared from the eyes of several soldiers who saw their deputy killed.
By the time they arrived at the place where the two armies were fighting, the battle was already a little hot. The army of Cangya Country was leaderless, and at night it hurriedly got up to meet the battle, and the defeat was already visible. In contrast, the soldiers of the Luoyan Kingdom have been prepared for a long time, and they are full of energy with mint leaves in their mouths, and they have become overwhelming to kill the enemy.
Although Yanli was slightly uncomfortable with such a scene, she was still sincerely relieved by the success of this enemy attack, and she shouted loudly: "The enemy's deputy is dead, and the soldiers of the Luoyan Kingdom will listen to the order and attack with all their might!" ”
This sentence was like a flame, which instantly ignited the enthusiasm and hope of the soldiers around them, and they shouted one by one with a louder voice: "Attack with all your might!" "And the Cliff Kingdom began to retreat.
The battle lasted for about an hour, and the camp of the Cangya Country was full of stumps, and the pungent smell of blood was extremely strong. War is always about sacrifice.
Although the soldiers of Cangya Country have no leader, their combat strength is not bad, so when some of the soldiers of Cangya Country began to retreat, Yanli did not stop them, and their night attack has achieved the desired effect. The reason why rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry is very clear, not to mention that the one in front of them is not a group of little white rabbits.
"What do we do now?" Cheng Yong's face flushed, and he asked with some excitement, he was extremely glad that he listened to Yanli's words yesterday, otherwise if they sat still, how could they be so easily caught off guard by the enemy.
"Move all the grain, grass and supplies, and retreat as soon as possible." Yan Li looked at the white belly of the fish that had already risen in the sky, smelled the smell of blood in the air, and felt slightly tired.
Seeing the sergeants excitedly carrying supplies and retreating in an orderly manner, Yanli tugged at the corners of her mouth, and just wanted to make a move, but the change was prominent.
She only felt a gust of palm wind coming, and she couldn't avoid it, and the tip of her nose faintly smelled a hint of good-smelling sandalwood, and the last scene that appeared in front of her was a flying white coat, and then she fell into darkness completely.
It hurts, it hurts. Yanli's eyes gradually opened, and the pain coming from her body made her extremely uncomfortable.
His eyes gradually adapted to the light, Yan Li looked around, and suddenly felt a slight shock in his heart, there should be a firewood room in front of him, and he was leaning on a pile of firewood, the battle armor on his body was gone, but a man's clothes were still there, and he had no strength in his body, and he had been bound up by thick hemp rope, unable to move. The pain in my body came from my lower back and abdomen, and I think it was caused by a slap in the face.
Yan Li calmed herself down, judging from her hunger, it should have been a day or two since then, if she was captured by the enemy in the end, then there is only one possibility that she is still alive and well, and the other party thinks that she is still useful!
The methods used to deal with prisoners of war that she had heard from Yan Shi came to mind, and she felt a chill running down her head, and her whole body shivered.
Calm, calm, Yanli kept telling herself, at least now she is fine, so she took a few deep breaths before her body gradually stopped trembling, she took a deep breath again, looked around, and tried to find some sharp firewood knives and other tools, but there was nothing in this firewood room except firewood, and there were no tools that could be used to save herself.
At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the firewood room, Yanli wanted to continue to pretend to be dizzy, but then thought that it would be the same fate to go on like this, it was better to see who could capture himself standing in the crowd of soldiers, so he stared at the slowly opening door with wide eyes.
