Chapter Ninety-Eight: The Moon Is Dark and the Wind is High (I)

The moon is dark and the wind is the day of arson, and tonight it is rare to have both, the moon is covered by a thick layer of dark clouds, and the wind rolls against the horizon with a whistling sound, and where it passes, layers of trees and grass waves are rolled.

Fang Laosheng, who was extremely resentful of the Bailong River, hurriedly marched to the destination, and the whole army began to rest through the Rainbow Bridge, not to mention his soldiers, even Fang Laosheng himself was tired enough, although he was born in a strong Tu clan, but he rarely had a record of bumping on horseback for a whole day, so he handed over the task of the infantry battalion to the two military divisions under his command, and he actually went to rest by himself.

There was no cavalry under Fang Laosheng, the soldiers who had been running for a day were tired and sleepy, no one wanted to continue to work, after a fierce quarrel, finally a group of unlucky soldiers took over the heavy task of patrolling the night, no matter how they cursed in their hearts, but no one dared to pick a pick, groups of soldiers with eyes that could not be opened, patrolling slowly inside and outside the camp.

Fang Laosheng and his subordinates all thought that the Rainbow Bridge was a safe place, the so-called night patrol was just for show, some people patrolled the night to mean that they were not a rabble, but an army, no one expected that in a dense forest two miles away, there was a god quietly observing their every move.

"Ready!" Li Xiaoyun gently passed the order.

A soldier bent down and drilled into the depths of the dense forest, and the infantrymen who were seizing time to rest in the dense forest were woken up one after another, and they skillfully sorted out their equipment, and dived out of the dense forest one after another. In order not to let the soldiers fall behind in this night when they couldn't see their fingers, Li Xiaoyun had ordered all the soldiers to wrap a piece of white cloth around their arms, and the three captains and a squad leader gradually lined up from the head of the team to the end of the team, and from time to time gently tapped their armor with the hilt of their swords, making a crisp collision sound, giving the soldiers behind a direction.

Different from the screaming atmosphere in the dense forest, Fang Laosheng's subordinate general who had to be in charge of patrolling the night cursed a few words in a low voice, and then secretly ran to rest, going up and down, there were fewer and fewer people patrolling the night, and finally even the torch that burned out the oil until it was extinguished was left unattended, and the whole battalion snored like thunder.

"Brethren! Follow me!! Li Xiaoyun ordered softly, slowly pulled out his long sword, and took the lead to walk forward.

The soldiers also drew their long swords and moved forward together, although there was an undefended camp on the opposite side, but their number was more than two thousand, far more than their own, although these soldiers had the courage to follow their leader to attack the camp, but it was with the consciousness of death, it was impossible to say that there was no tension in their hearts. The more nervous they were, the more likely they were to have accidents, and when they touched the torch less than twenty meters away from the camp gate, a soldier tripped over a stone on the ground and fell heavily to the ground, and the long sword in his hand was also thrown out, and the blade of the sword hit a rock with a crisp sound.

Li Xiaoyun saw the body of an enemy soldier sitting on the ground sleeping with a long stick at the gate of the camp moving, and knew that his movements were about to be exposed, so he simply took a big stride and ran straight towards the camp gate.

The soldiers under Li Xiaoyun hurriedly strode to follow, and a captain kicked the fallen soldier hatefully, and scolded in a low voice: "Damn, if you kid can't kill enough ten, Lao Tzu will pick your skin when you go back!" Hurry up and get me up!! ”

The soldier got up with a flushed face and rushed up to pick up his sword: "Ten is ten!" ”

"Lao Tzu will check the number for you!" The other soldier grinned and answered.

The enemy soldiers in front of the camp gate woke up from their dreams in a trance, and the sound of a hundred people running together was really louder, not to mention that the sound of armor and armor colliding sounded very clear at night, but unfortunately, the farmer was only a farmer after all, and the untrained farmer could learn to be brutal, but he could not learn to adapt.

"Wh... Who? A soldier of Fang Laosheng looked at the murderous Li Xiaoyun blankly: "Password... King!! ”

"Invincible... The other Fang Laosheng's soldier replied to the password in ignorance, and immediately saw Li Xiaoyun, who had already pounced on him, he was so frightened that he said 'Mom', threw away the wooden stick, turned around and ran towards the camp.

This camp is the most humble camp Li Xiaoyun has ever seen, the so-called camp gate is just two wooden poles, and there is also a big flag with the word 'square', there are no obstacles around the camp, and there are no traps, thistles, tripping horses and other facilities, this camp can be attacked from all directions.

The reason why Li Xiaoyun chose this place as the breakthrough point is for two reasons, one is because there are many torches here, which have only been replaced with new ones not long ago, and most of the torches in the camp have been extinguished; The second reason is that the southeast wind is blowing now, and if they enter from the rear camp and set fire to the enemy camp, it will be they who will burn themselves. Although Li Xiaoyun is not a famous general who knows astronomy, geography, and can strategize, how to make use of wind and rain is the basic common sense necessary for every ordinary officer.

There were a few enemy soldiers who had just woken up and were still waiting for Li Xiaoyun's answer, and Li Xiaoyun used the long sword in his hand to give the enemy soldiers the simplest answer, the sword blade swept over, blood splashed, and the rest of the enemy soldiers fled to the camp with a strange scream, and no one thought to knock on the war drums in the camp gate.

"Kill!!" Li Xiaoyun took a leap, caught up with an enemy soldier, and knocked the enemy soldier to the ground from behind, and then he picked up a torch and chased the enemy soldier into the camp.

Some of Li Xiaoyun's soldiers took out their own torches, while others took off the enemy's torches, killing people and setting fires, killing people and setting fires, these two words are complementary and inseparable, and the fire can make the enemy soldiers more panicked, and they can also kill more opponents.

At this moment, on a low hill seven or eight miles away from Fang Laosheng's camp, several horse scouts were looking at the firelight in front of them in surprise.

"Head, there's an enemy in front of you!"

"Nonsense! You think you're the only one with eyes?! The person known as the 'head' laughed and scolded: "You two will go back immediately to report to the commander, and I will go over with the junior to take a look!" ”

"Well, I haven't spoken to the Commander yet, haha..."

"It's no wonder that the Lord Commander didn't talk to you, just your thief-eyed appearance, it's annoying everywhere you go." The other scout smacked with a laugh.

"You know the! Lao Tzu, this is called spirit!! "The 'thief's eyebrow' scout widened, but his eyes were small, and his appearance was even more comical.

"Don't ****** fart, do you want to delay the military situation!" The man known as the 'head' shouted, "You two be careful on the road, and it is better to be slow than to make a mistake." "It was too dark, and although they were carrying torches, no one could guarantee that something would happen if they galloped on their horses.

"Got it, head." The scout of the 'thief's eyebrows and rat eyes' turned his horse and galloped on the road, leaving a sentence: "The head is everything else, I just like my mother-in-law and mother-in-law. ”

"!" The person known as the head wanted to scold a few words, but the person who was scolded had already run away, and he shook his head: "Little San, put out the torch, let's sneak over to see what is going on." ”

"Yes!" The other scout agreed, turned over and dismounted, pushed the torch into the grass, and stepped on it a few more times, until the torch was extinguished, and then the two scouts took advantage of the night and ran forward unhurriedly.

Li Xiaoyun in Fang Laosheng's camp had already fallen into a bitter battle, if he successfully attacked the camp of 2,000 people at night with more than 1,000 troops, it would be a victory; It is glorious to win with a night attack of 500 people, and if a night attack with 300 people can be successful in the end, it will become a miracle, an out-and-out miracle!
