Chapter 730: Raid

"All the soldiers obey the order!"

"In~!"

Jia Qing stood on the podium, coldly glanced at the three thousand soldiers on the school ground, and shouted: "Today, your task is to protect the three comrades-in-arms in charge of arson in their respective units and rush into the other party's granary as much as possible.

If you can burn down the enemy's granary in one fell swoop, you will win this battle! You are the greatest heroes of this battle! Got it?! ”

"Understood!" A loud sound echoed across the school grounds.

These people are the most elite group of soldiers in the entire Zhenbei army. They both knew how hard it would be to get into each other's granaries, but none of them had a worried look on their faces.

Because they already knew that it was the idea of the noble young master from the capital in front of them to burn down the enemy's granary, and he would also take the lead tonight and go to set fire with them.

The nobles are not afraid, so what should they be afraid of?

"Well, you're all good! If this battle is successful, every soldier here will be counted as a first-class meritorious.

If he returns alive, he will be promoted to the third rank. If you die in battle, the bereavement will be returned to your relatives in three times, and a monument of loyalty and martyrs will be erected for you in your hometown to proclaim to the world!

This is the general's promise to you, and this is the general's promise to you! ”

Promoted to the third level? Erect a monument to the martyrs??

That is, if you are born, you will be rich, and if you die, you will shine on the lintel! This is the greatest glory of the military!

"Victory!"

"Victory!!"

"Winning !!"

Morale is at an all-time high.

Looking at these enthusiastic soldiers, Jia Qing was also infected.

His grasp of the success of this trip has suddenly become too great.

That's right, he lied to them even as well. It's not about deceiving them for rewards, nor about deceiving them for bereavement. These are all true.

They didn't go to set fires, but to poison, the most powerful poison in the world.

Plague......

This terrible plague that could definitely wipe out a great army.

It was said that it was arson, just to prevent the enemy from catching the prisoners and asking the truth.

If Fyodor had been prepared, it was very likely that this battle would not have been fully successful.

The plague, also known as the Black Death. Most of the pathogens are carried by bacteria and fleas on rats, etc.

In fact, this pathogen is not uncommon, even some common rats may carry it. But the difficult thing is that Niu Zhu and the others were actually infected to death by the disease brought back by Zhao Dawa and the others, which shows that the pathogens in that valley are particularly fierce.

Jia Qing spent five days cultivating these fierce and easily contagious pathogens.

This may already be called "germ warfare".

Although he has done a lot of protective measures, if there is no accident, it will be difficult for the twenty-one soldiers inside to recover.

They are the dead.

Except for Wang Ziteng and Jia Qing, Zhao Sheng, and Wang Jiang, only they know the true plan.

"What are you going to do?"

Just when Jia Qing and the others were getting ready to go, Princess Tana actually came.

"I've heard that you're going to burn down their granaries, and I'm here to help." Tana said lightly.

"No need."

"Hmph, I know you're a conceited and proud person, and you don't care about other people's help. I'm not here to help you, but I'd like to see you defeat the Cossacks.

If you think about it, they are now stationed in our Tatar steppe, and if our men lead the way, will you have a better chance of success?

I brought these people, who used to live in the Mogou River Valley and around the Shili Plain, if you really don't want to, even if I am amorous, I will take them away. ”

Tana glanced at the corners of her mouth, as if she was about to take someone away.

"Wait!"

Tana smiled back and said, "You agreed?" ”

"I can ask you to lead the way, but you must follow my commands!"

The spies had already found out that the more than 100,000 Cossacks had a total of seven granaries, distributed over dozens of miles of steppe, all of which were strictly guarded.

The biggest advantage of fast riding is that it can kill the enemy's military tent before the opponent's spies have time to report.

Although there is a map, it will be difficult to get close to the granary on the other side if you lose precious time because of the unfamiliar road.

If his secret weapon can't be thrown near the opponent's granary, the effect will definitely be greatly reduced.

Tanaken helps, and this concern may be gone.

"No problem. Listen to you, listen to you. "Tana is bold.

So, Jia Qing arranged the people brought by Tana into the seven large armies that had been divided.

The night was very quiet, except for the house in the military camp in the northeast, Jia Qing and the others were gone.

......

"They're gone?"

In Wang Ziteng's tent, he asked his cronies gently.

"General Hui, yes. General Jia and the others had already left, and before leaving, they sent someone to tell the general not to be careless, in case the other party's dog jumped over the wall in a hurry and died with our army. ”

The cronies obviously didn't understand the meaning of Jia Qing's words. However, he still conveyed Jia Qing's meaning to Wang Ziteng word for word.

Wang Ziteng nodded and said, "The order will go down and push all the firewood and grass into the trenches, and all other materials will be transported to the front army, but they will not move for the time being." ”

Against cavalry, trenches can be described as the most basic defensive measure.

Before the army formation of the northern part of the town, there were trenches, and there were more than one.

After the order was passed down, Wang Ziteng walked out of the military tent, looked at the night, and muttered: "You must come back alive, if you lose, it will be the misfortune of Da Chu." ”

But he couldn't do anything, and his task was not much lighter than Jia Qing's.

......

Shiliyuan, where there is the largest granary of the Cossack cavalry, is also the most important material center.

Only five or six miles from here was where Fyodor's main army was stationed.

For cavalry, it can be described as a snap of a finger.

On the top of a hillside more than twenty miles away, Jia Qing led the five hundred people under his command, only to ambush here in the extremely light moonlight.

Seven teams, only by raiding at the same time, can achieve the greatest possible success.

Tana looked at the flickering military tent within the ten miles plain, and said to Jia Qing: "I think we should forget it, there are at least thousands of soldiers and horses there to defend, plus Fyodor's pro-army that can be reached at any time, let's rush down like this, not to mention whether it burns to the other party's granary, we will definitely die!" ”

For Tana, if there is no hope of burning the granary, it is naturally best to retreat.

"Whether we burn it or not, we have to try our best.

From here to the opposite side, there are three cross-slopes that block it, which is not conducive to the cavalry advance. We moved to the mountain.

Captain Zhou, you take someone to dispose of the spies on that mountain. ”

Jia Qing pointed to a hill slope four or five miles to the left.

It's still far from the enemy, and they don't have torches, so be careful, the probability of being spotted is not high.

Seeing that Jia Qing was already beckoning the transfer of soldiers and horses, Tana's eyes flashed with appreciation again.

This Da Chu man is not bad, he is not afraid of death at all.

Then he looked at the three strange people who had always been out of step with the soldiers, and asked, "What are the three of them doing?" ”

She had found out that there were three of them in every army before they split their forces.

The smell on his body was terrible and he died.

Therefore no one came near them.

"They're the ones who specialize in arson." Jia Qing said lightly.

Although Tana felt that something was wrong, she didn't think much of it, and moved with everyone.

About half an hour later......

Shout~

Whoosh~

Under the dark night, the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air from time to time is not obvious in the dark night, but every time, it can always take the life of a sentry scout.

Finally, a sober soldier on guard noticed that something was wrong and began to warn.

In the dark night, Jia Qing saw that he was discovered, and immediately ordered: "Victory or defeat is tonight, rush!" ”

Suddenly, the five hundred soldiers stopped holding down the sound of horses' hooves and began to sprint with all their might. The sound could be described as shaking the ground, and for a while, the other side didn't know how many people came to sneak attack.

The enemy panicked.
