In fact, in a sense, night battles were one of the most familiar home fields of the rebels; Because of the long-term supply and intake of fish and animal offal, night blindness, which plagues ordinary volunteers, is no longer a problem in today's army, coupled with occasional surprise inspections and emergency assemblies, most of the soldiers have become accustomed to acting at night, and are more or less able to reflexively respond and deal with them in accordance with the corresponding regulations.

Therefore, Zhou Huai'an, who had now come out of the camp wall, launched his scanning ability again in front of the front that had fallen into darkness and blurred vision, and found that there were not many biological targets left in the scanning range of the sector directly in front of him that could continue to move and maintain vigorous signs. Although there were still some hidden in the crevices and corners of the fortifications outside the camp, or the faint overlapping servants lying on the ground, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Then, he tried to narrow the scope of exploration on both sides, and extended the energy consumption to the farther range ahead, only to find that some biological features that had been temporarily marked by himself were chasing and besieging some strange biological targets that were slowly fading; Then one by one, the creatures disappeared on the spot, either being thrown to the ground, or stopping to fall on their knees.

As for the horses that chased farther away, they were inevitably a little overwhelmed; Zhou Huai'an also realized once again the value and significance of these hidden functions in his body; It is no longer simply used to save lives, snoop, and investigate.

For example, this kind of full-field scanning capability with limited distance may be somewhat ineffective in frontal combat; However, it is used to control the situation of troops within a radius with oneself as the core, as well as in the melee and chaos between friend and foe, as well as corresponding to unexpected situations such as sneak attacks and night battles, and even the identification of friend and foe within a certain range, it still has a considerable bonus effect; It can even be called a big killer that can penetrate the fog of the battlefield and be unable to prevent surprises.

At this time, the team on guard at the western camp wall once again signaled that an unknown number of people were approaching; Lieutenant Lu Fang, who was in charge of the standby of the shooting team in the battalion, couldn't help but ask:

"Whether or not to carry out a round of projectiles, right to fire reconnaissance."

But he was stopped by Zhou Huai'an, and he was confident.

"It shouldn't be necessary.,If it's good, it should be friendly forces and other units to come to avoid it.。。 Do your best to light the lights and guide them. ”

"Pay attention to separate placement and screening, and don't let suspicious people and others get in."

Because he had already sensed the existence of Qu Chengyu, who was responsible for coordinating the subordinate forces, and several other subordinates who had been sent out by himself to guide and supervise the subordinate forces; And they are not in a state of being held hostage or injured and suppressed, but in the position of leading the team. However, a large number of biological targets followed behind were obviously generally dull and injured to varying degrees.

As most of the generals in the army, or an important figure in the friendly army, Zhou Huai'an recorded the corresponding biological characteristics in his daily life. It is also a potential security measure to prevent some key positions from being replaced, impersonated, or obscured around you; Obviously, this time it also played a role in this situation.

Immediately, there was an inexplicable expression of awe on the left and right. The robe was soaked with sweat and mud, and Qu Chengyu, who was clinging to his forehead and face, was led to Zhou Huai'an with a certain sense of uncertainty and shame.

"The contemptible husband is not talented, and he has not been able to appease and restrain the people of the various departments. Let them be in safe place and wait for help. ”

In the end, I had to gather more than 500 people in my own camp. If you are ashamed of the trust, please also lead the army to punish and deal with it. ”

"Since you can stabilize the camp of your headquarters, what is the crime, and you can still retract the rout near the left, that is meritorious."

Zhou Huai'an did not hesitate to sell some encouragement and initiative in this situation.

"I'll give you a good life talk afterwards. But now I have to go to rest and eat first, and change my soaked robes. If I fall ill because of this, I will not have one less person to use. ”

However, looking at his departing figure with some gratitude, Zhou Huai'an was sighing in his heart at the moment: Sure enough, there are still characters with a certain amount of luck and foundation of the times. Obviously, he was only from a wealthy family in Nam Hong Prefecture (now Ningjiang County, Hai Duong Province, Vietnam), and under the unfavorable situation of fighting with his head covered, he could still make a small contribution without being chaotic.

This further strengthened Zhou Huai'an's determination and willingness to continue to collect those famous and historical figures, and use their luck and qualifications to form a barrier to protect himself. At this time, Ge Congzhou, who led the direct team out to suppress the formation, also panted and walked up to the camp wall and saluted with his chest

"Qi Yu led the army, and the horse team that went out to search for the enemy has discovered something."

Then Zhou Huai'an knew what was going on, but when he was chasing the fleeing remnants of the enemy, he inadvertently found two ropeways sunk in the river, and there was even a simple plank crossing period; As long as it is straightened and fixed on the shore, it is a temporary passage across the river, and the thieves who attacked the camp obviously came over this way, and the unexpected ambush and collection during the day are easy to explain.

"I need some brave and fearless volunteers and resourceful men to lead it to overcome the obstacles of this night."

Thinking of this, Zhou Huai'an couldn't help but move in his heart, and suddenly turned around and said categorically to the subordinates beside Zhou.

"Cross the river overnight along the bridge rope to occupy the bridgehead position on the opposite bank for our army, until the morning when the main formation is ready to stop."

Hearing this, the generals who were still left around him couldn't help but be surprised and hesitated, and immediately rushed to make several voices.

"Please leave it to me."

"At this time, it should be a certain good at..."

"But please just tell me about it."

"Our ministry should live up to its trust."

"Forget it all, who can you take from me?"

Zhou Huai'an glanced around between them and suddenly knew in his heart, these were the captains of each regiment who were waiting in the camp to meet the enemy and had spare strength, but there was no indiscriminate coaxing. Then he also decided:

"You're all drawing the best of the best out of a team. To be strong and resilient. ”

Then, his gaze finally fell on one of the lieutenants.

"It's handed over to Huo Cun's temporary commanders."

"Thank you for your faith in the leader, and I will go all out."

Huo Cun was overjoyed and thanked him.

"Take the bridge for the army."

"Relight all the broken camps,"

Then, looking at these healthy figures that disappeared into the night one by one, Zhou Huai'an ordered again:

"The more you burn, the better, and then let people shout in it, and do it for these jumping (death squads)."

Of course, this is also a means of delaying time, creating the illusion that the fierce war and tug-of-war are still going on here; It's just hard to say how much effect it can have on the enemy left behind on the other side.

It's just that in the night wind, after waiting for more than half an hour, the firelight of those outer camps that are about to burn out will be unsustainable, and Zhou Huai'an finally saw the flashing lights on the other side, which means that all have landed safely and the signal that the whole team has finished standing up, and can't help but sigh, the first step of this counterattack has been steady.

After another suffocating sound,

The other side suddenly burst into flames and screams, and it seemed that the other party had finally realized something and reacted, and began to send troops to counterattack and take it back; However, just a moment ago, with the signal of the full landing sent back from the other side, the second batch of selected reinforcements had disappeared into the night with crossbow cards, and the third group of neatly dressed armored soldiers were also regrouping in front of the camp gate.

Zhou Huai'an did not hesitate to give the order to continue to advance, and he had already reached this point, so there was nothing to hesitate and hesitate; Try to pile up all the chips and hole cards that you can use; He didn't believe that after this failed night battle, the other party still had more strength and preparation. If this were the case, the other party should have taken the rope bridge on the river a long time ago, and this unexpected secret hand would have attacked the general with all his might;

Then, after continuing to observe for a while, Zhou Huai'an found that something was not quite right; The place where the battle took place on the opposite side was not on the bank of the river where the landing was expected, but at a distance from the shore, so that the fire that had been raised by the burning and killing attack could not be reflected and reflected on the surface of the river. This inevitably overturned Zhou Huai'an's judgment about the other party's rapid counterattack, what is going on.

Could it be that something happened to make the battle even worse, then you have to be prepared. He then ordered:

"Get the regiment ready. After dawn, cross the river with me. ”

"How is the camp going, if the materials are not enough, the camp tent will be dismantled to replenish it, and another rope bridge across the river will be built as soon as possible before dawn."

"The other battalions should also be prepared, and once they are sure that they need something, they will assemble wooden platoons to rush to the crossing. . . ."
