Cheng Jingyun thought about it again and again, but she couldn't think of any way to compete with that group. Regardless of the disparity in strength for the time being, the main reason is that she doesn't know how many people the other party has, and she can't decide whether to go head-to-head with it.

Like Xingchen going to their lair to find out the strength of the other party, no one in the Cold Moon Army has the ability to do it so far, and she is not fully injured, let alone go out in person

In the end, Cheng Jingyun could only let people squat in relatively safe positions around the valley in batches, and come back in time to report any movements, although it was a little harder, but the danger factor was much less.

When Song Zhancheng accompanied him, he also brought the medical skills left by Cheng Jingyun, which specially recorded the unique poisonous weeds in the border area, called Phantom Grass. The toxicity of phantom grass is not strong, and it is named because it can cause people to hallucinate, but Cheng Jingyun has done experiments, and a large amount of phantom grass is a poison that can cause death for long-term hallucinations and finally kill.

Cheng Jingyun annotated a line in the book, and Song Zhancheng noticed it and asked his subordinates to pay special attention to the surroundings, fortunately, this place is an area where a large number of phantom grasses are planted, so it is easy to get a large number of phantom grasses.

Song Zhancheng asked someone to pick it, found a relatively secret cave and tried to quench it into juice, and then caught some small animals in the mountain forest, soaked them in poisonous juice, and secretly put them into the cage where the beast was previously held.

He specially followed, and found that not all beasts were domesticated by the beast tamers, and some were struggling tenaciously, and Song Zhancheng did not let them give the meat soaked in poisonous juice to the undomesticated beasts.

The smell of meat made the beast that had been hungry for many days howl, and Song Zhancheng couldn't help but be discovered by the other party, and evacuated in time after breaking his tail.

Then he squatted around for a while, making sure that no one noticed before leaving.

The first step of the plan went without deviation, and after some time, they found that the domesticated beasts were dying in large numbers, and that was the time for the actual assault.

Song Zhancheng naturally wanted to stabilize the morale of the army before leaving, and after gathering the soldiers together, Song Zhancheng briefly described the situation of the mountain bandits.

"This time we are not dealing with the regular army of Hengguo, but a group of mountain and forest bandits wandering between the two countries, this group of people is the people who attacked our warehouse at night before, it is my dereliction of duty to fail to find and kill them before, this time I lead the soldiers, just to take this opportunity to exterminate them, and inevitably leave trouble."

"General, what is the enemy's strength in this crackdown on bandits? What is the terrain like? How likely are we to win? Someone asked out loud.

This is not a provocative question, but a normal question before the expedition.

Song Zhancheng pondered for a while, and replied: "The strength is naturally not as strong as my 3,000 soldiers, but the probability of our victory is not high, and you have all seen that the mountain range they occupy is not on the original map." The situation I had previously investigated was not promising. ”

"The mountain range is easy to defend and difficult to attack, three sides are flat-bottomed, and the other side is backed by a waterfall, it is too difficult to attack, but now we have to do this, and I don't need to emphasize what we need to do at that time, remember, this battle is not only for the stolen grain and grass of my Yiguo, nor just for the dignity and face of Yiguo, but also for Heng and Yiguo! The existence of mountain bandits has always been a hidden danger, and if the mountain bandits are not eliminated, the two countries will be uneasy! ”

"If the mountain bandits are not eliminated, the two countries will be uneasy!"

"If the mountain bandits are not eliminated, the two countries will be uneasy!"

The morale was brought out by Song Zhancheng's words, Song Zhancheng's face was serious and intimidating, and the soldiers also wiped out the attitude of not taking the mountain bandits in their eyes.

After all, the word "mountain bandits" gives ordinary people the feeling that they are nothing more than officers, but obviously, Song Zhancheng doesn't think so, otherwise he would not have been wiped out by them before, and he had to flee.

In any case, Song Zhancheng learned a lesson and would not rush to send troops if he was not fully prepared.

At this time, someone asked, "General, what about suppressing bandits...... Does the hussar general know? ”

Song Zhancheng glanced at the man and asked, "Do you want him to know, or don't you want to?" ”

"I ...... I just don't want to ......."

"Yes," Song Zhancheng smiled lightly, "I admit that the hussar general doesn't know about this matter, but you naturally also know that the generals are outside, and the military order is not subject to it, and there is no need to say anything about this matter, if there are any consequences, I will bear it with all my might, and I will not implicate the soldiers." ”

No one spoke at this time, and Song Zhancheng didn't say anything more, giving him the last time to rest, and decided to attack early tomorrow morning, before dawn.

The order was issued, Song Zhancheng received a secret letter from the shadow guard that night, Cheng Jingyun still did not have any whereabouts, according to the traces left before, the shadow guard found Zhang Tianshi's body, and Jinyun still did not find a trace.

Song Zhancheng's mood became even heavier, as if the hand that had been holding his heart was clenched tighter again.

He knew why the two of them were still so embarrassed after escaping under the protection of the guards, it was nothing more than that Song Jinghe expected that the hussar general would let Cheng Jingyun go, and he himself killed him.

didn't expect that he would only leave for a few days, Song Jinghe was far away in the capital, and he easily found a vacancy, and asked for Cheng Jingyun's life casually.

It's his fault, it's not well arranged, and now it's not even clear whether Cheng Jingyun is dead or alive.

"Master, Miss Cheng...... Still no news? Foshan noticed early in the morning that Song Zhancheng didn't come back to his senses for a long time with the secret letter, so the answer came out.

Song Zhancheng let out a "hmm" and didn't speak again.

"Master, it's okay, no news is good news, Miss Cheng is so smart and kind, God won't ......"

She's already died once.

Song Zhancheng didn't say this sentence, but he also knew that if she had been innocently blessed her, Cheng Jingyun would not have become today's Buyun, and there would be no disaster of killing this time.

"Don't comfort me, I know in my heart, you go and rest, there is still a hard battle to fight tomorrow, don't waste time here."

Song Zhancheng's tone was a little hard, and he sounded like he was angry, but Foshan knew that he was emotionally unstable, so he didn't bother him anymore, and left after answering.

Taking the power of the army from the hussar general is only the first step, and as soon as the fighting on the border stops, it is time for Song Jinghyuk to repay the debt.

In the early morning of the next day, before dawn, all the soldiers were ready to go, Song Zhancheng said the battle plan again, and made sure that there was no problem, so he ordered to set off.

Foshan followed him and walked in the front, did not speak all the way, and when he was about to walk out of the covered jungle, he heard Foshan say: "Master, you should be careful when you will attack." ”

"I know," Song Zhancheng smiled rarely, "I'll pay attention." ”

"Hmm." Foshan nodded, his face was solemn, and he didn't say anything more.

Before being discovered by the sentinels in the valley, Song Zhancheng quickly led the soldiers through the flat ground in front of him, and the alarm sounded, and the sound of chaos in the valley could be clearly heard.

Song Zhancheng closed his eyes, his face was grim, and he knew that the real battle had begun.
