26. Enthusiastic spring
Handing over my horse to the two horsemen, I changed back into my familiar and comfortable ninja black attire and walked briskly along the mountain path, sometimes galloping, sometimes climbing. Behind him were four companions, new companions and old companions, but our purpose was exactly the same, and that was - the Tartar Black Carboniferous granary at the foot of the Phoenix Mountains!
Ever since I met this gentleman who was almost the same age as me, ah, in fact, it was my lord, and he asked us to call him sir, objectively speaking, he was indeed a good gentleman! He taught me so much! I've always been high-minded and unconvinced, but this time I'm really convinced! Is he a prophet, sir? Why is anything a recipe worthwhile? Is he really my peer? It's really hard to understand, why is it that at this age, I feel the feeling of my father from him?
Kite and Lan also said that he is a special man, not as anxious as other men! Kite tried a lot to get it, haha, this stupid girl!
"What are you laughing at?" Kite asked behind him. I glanced back at her and couldn't help but laugh for some reason.
The kite looked at me in wonder, but kept at his feet, and asked, "What bad things are you thinking?"
I rubbed my face and quickly said, "It's okay, it's okay." Look at the road, look at the road! But when I remembered the first time, when Mr. said that he was not interested in firewood girls, he couldn't help but laugh out loud!
"What the hell are you laughing at? Speak clearly before you go! Murong Qin said softly.
I stopped, looked up at the sky, and whispered, "I'm thinking sir!" He's such an amazing guy! ”
Murong Qin said strangely: "Sir? Is it Brother Qilan? ”
The kite also seemed to smile, shook his head and said, "It's a pity that he doesn't belong to me."
Mo said, "Keep up the good work!"
Sa also smiled: "Look after you!" However, for now, let's go and serve their lair first! ”
I nodded, and motioned for everyone to be quiet, for Cavalry Lee told us that we had crossed two hills and we were about to reach our destination!
There are guards in Taniguchi! At least one squad! It is estimated that it will not work to break through, so you can turn it over! I gestured to Mo and Murong Qin, and they went to find their way left and right. After a while, Mo came back and made a gesture to indicate that he could climb over! We waited for Murong Qin to come back, but it didn't seem to work here, it was too steep, so we lurked towards Mo together.
You can indeed go up! I looked at the rocky slope, beckoned, and several people lined up all the way in a tacit understanding, and under the leadership of Mo, they quietly climbed up! This stone is so ice! But as Iga's best ninja, it's not unbearable for me. After about a pillar of incense, we finally climbed to the top of the slope!
God is above! Here are the enemy's grain stacks! I made gestures to ask several people to hide their bodies and determine the specific implementation plan.
There are ...... below. Well, at least two teams of patrolmen! It's impossible to avoid them entirely. And as long as one person finds out, we're finished! What to do? The gentleman should have arrived in front of the mountain, and what he was waiting for was our fruit! Fast! Think of a way!
I looked up, and the valley was shaped like a funnel, with the top of the slope opposite...... It should be possible to get around from the front! Bypass ...... Pregnant!
I called a few people over, and as soon as I explained this, a few people looked down and thought it was feasible!
So, each of us took out our spare climbing ropes, connected them together, and tugged hard, yes! Then he took out the fire oil on everyone's body and handed it all to Murong Qin - the reason is very simple, she is the thinnest and lightest!
The strongest sand, and the thinner kite went to the opposite side of the valley, Mo and I stayed here, and our two teams dragged the rope at both ends respectively, and when they stood on the opposite side, we signaled that Murong Qin could act! This little girl is estimated to be half my weight! It's not yet! We both pulled the rope tightly and straightened!
I saw her grasping the rope with both hands, alternating between her left and right hands, and after a while, she reached the middle of the rope! We worked hard to lean back, basically ensuring the height and arc of the rope. When she reached the middle, we slowly loosened the rope together until Murong Qin gently landed on the largest grain stack in the center!
There are three stacks of grain, and this one is twice as large as the next two! The girl stood firm, made a proper gesture to us, and we straightened the rope again! Since fireworks are strictly forbidden around the granary, it is basically pitch black, and the night is our best protection, and the patrolling soldiers cannot pay attention to the subtle movements above ten meters overhead!
Murong Qin...... It seems to take out a short dagger, make a cut on the top of the grain stack, and then bury the fire oil deeply, take out a few grains and grass, rub them, roll them into a long strip, dip a little fire oil, and put it flat on the fireproof cloth of the cut opening, and the other end is stuffed into the fire oil bottle! This is...... Slow start the fuse!? This girl is so smart! Sir, I'm not mistaken! She took the fire wipe, and after a few clicks, the fire was ignited! Look at the "fuse" that burns slowly, at least half a column of incense can be burned!
When we see that we are done, we immediately put the rope down! Murong Qin grabbed it! We tugged hard, the rope was lifted, and we walked forward together on both sides, and soon carried Murong Qin to the second grain stack......
The third grain stack......
By the time we dragged Murong Qin up, the tops of the three grain stacks had already begun to burn almost at the same time! This girl, three fuses of different lengths, burned out almost at the same time!
Looking at the excited Murong Qin, I gently patted her on the back and asked her to lie on the top of the valley like us, quietly waiting for the fire to break out!
At this time, it seems that the wind is blowing outside the valley! I folded my hands and sincerely hoped that the wind would be stronger! Blow into the valley! Drink! It's a northeasterly wind! Just right!
I saw that the original tiny flame was under the action of the swirling northeast wind, and the "whirring" was booming! Faster and faster burning to the fire oil tank! I heard people around me chanting, "Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up! Finally, with a "boom", the largest grain stack fire oil tank was ignited! Almost instantly, the entire top of the huge grain stack was on fire!
"Boom!" Another one was on fire, but the third was blown out! Damn it! At this moment, the soldiers below discovered the fire and began to shout, presumably to put out the fire! I let out a low roar, "Stop them!" So several people who came with him took out shurikens and darts one after another, and threw them at the firefighters below! There was a scream below! But the personnel still came one after another! We took out the smoke jade again and threw it indiscriminately at the place where the fire was most intense! At that moment, I heard a commotion in front of the mountain! Yes sir, they are on the offensive!
The Tatars below the mountain have become headless flies, and they cannot be sure whether to put out the fire or meet the enemy first! When we finished throwing our shurikens, we picked up the stones on the ground and threw them down! And below, there are a few arrows that shoot up indiscriminately!
"Bump!" The largest grain stack exploded in all directions, igniting the one that was not lit! Only then did I put my mind at ease, so that I was really hopeless!
The fire is so strong down there! Half of the mountain is red! I'm skinny when I'm baked! Yes! What a warm spring it is!
……
The cavalry marched quietly, and within half an hour, we saw Phoenix Mountain! There are sentinels at the mouth of the valley, but their defenses are extremely lax, presumably they think that when most of our defenders are ambushed and annihilated, and the rest of the army is desperately defending the city, they still have the strength to raid their lair! It was easy to pull out their checkpoints, and I took a hundred selected southern soldiers to the camp gate!
I don't know what happened to the nine ghosts and filial piety! I guess it won't disappoint me! If we don't succeed by dawn, let's attack! Because as soon as the day dawns, we have no protective color, and we have to make a way out!
Over there...... Seem...... It's on! Haha, what a fire! The whole enemy camp is in chaos! Most of the guards were transferred to fight the fire! That's great! With a wave of my hand, the elite southern soldiers were divided into two teams, one team held a bow, and when the other team was ready to open the antlers and pry the door, a volley fired, and several sentries on the enemy tower were suddenly gone! The doors are open!
I'm going to beat the drums with all my might! Suddenly the drums resounded through the valley! Ten breaths of effort, the cavalry of our army brigade has already been killed! Each person had a strip of white cloth wrapped around their left arm - it wasn't yet dawn, and that was the only way to identify it! When they were killed, the enemy did not know what was happening, and when they detected the enemy attack, they did not know how many enemies there were in the night, but they felt that there were enemies everywhere, so they shouted and rushed around, and the chaos they caused was greater than what we killed!
I ordered the cavalry to shout: "Capture Nilan alive!" Capture Nilan alive! "If you see someone who doesn't have a strip of white cloth on your arm, kill it! I specially arranged for no regrets, and asked him to lead the cavalry battalion straight to the handsome tent and capture the enemy's head! I'll take the others and run to the granary!
When we arrived at the granary, we encountered some resistance, but it was all some dismounted cavalry, what could we do? We broke their defenses in a whirlwind and devastating manner, chasing down the remnants of the enemy as we threw torches at the stacks of grain and hay that were already burning! Burn it! Burn it! Let the wind and fire come more violently!
Half an hour later, we had taken full control of the enemy camp. Except for Nilan's imperial concubine and young son, everyone else has been wiped out by us! Of course, let a few people out and let them bring the good news to Nilan! Nilan led his troops to attack the city, probably he wanted to enjoy the glory of breaking through Daming City for the first time in recent years! It's a pity that the Ming army is no longer the Ming army, because there is one more me!
When the Nine Ghosts came down from the valley to report to me, I ordered the whole army to form a team, and in the previous battle, a total of fourteen people were lost, which is almost negligible damage! So, with a team with high morale, I went directly along the route of Nilan and their troops, killing the rear army of the Bentars!
