Chapter 018: Exploring the Enemy Camp at Night
The prerequisite for a lone army to go deep into the enemy camp was to take it by surprise, but the Huns were obviously on guard, and scouts, traps, and guards were all arranged. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
If a slow man with a horse and a horse wants to sneak to a position where he can launch a surprise attack, a few people may be fine, but a cavalry of more than a thousand people wants to reach the position quietly without being detected in the presence of scouts, and if he rushes early, then under the sound of rolling horses' hooves, it is not called a surprise attack but an attack.
Thousand five horsemen attacked 20,000 Huns, what is the difference between that and looking for death?
Therefore, after hearing Qin Shen's words, several people scratched their heads and scratched their cheeks for a while, and there was nothing they could do.
Long.
Qu Han said: "Since you can't do anything, you ...... or not."
"I have a way." Qin Shen suddenly raised his head to interrupt, looked at the inquiring gazes of several people and said: "What we are worried about is nothing more than that it is inconvenient if it is far away, and it is easy to appear if it is close, even so, as long as we can raid from a distance and the Huns have no time to take care of it, then it will be done, so at this moment, there is only the inside and the outside!" ”
"Inside and outside?" Several people said in surprise and confusion.
Qin Shen nodded, and was about to open his mouth to explain-
"Could it be that the general has an internal response in the Xiongnu arrangement?" Cao Jin rushed to the road, then looked at the strange eyes shot by everyone, scratched his head and said embarrassedly: "Hehe, I just saw that the atmosphere was a little dull just now, so I ...... Let's talk about the general. ”
Qin Shen secretly inhaled a long breath and suppressed the agitation in his heart, and wrote lightly: "Actually, it's very simple, as long as I sneak into the Hun enemy camp first, and then ignite the baggage ......."
"No! The baggage is in the innermost layer, which is no different from sending to death. Cao Jin interrupted urgently.
"Listen to me!" Qin Shen shouted softly, "When the time comes, I will light the baggage, we will use the firelight as the signal, take advantage of the temporary civil strife of the Huns, you and others lead the army to rush in, it will be done, if it is impossible, we will have no loss." ”
Several people were silent when they heard it, and they didn't think about this solution, but it was too difficult, so they didn't think about it deeply, and they didn't know what to say for a while.
After being silent for a moment, Qu Han said lightly: "It's better for me to go, after all, I'm better." ”
"I'll go!"
"I'll go!"
"Do you want all five of them to abandon their horses?" Qin Shen reprimanded.
Seeing that Xue Cao and the others finally stopped, Fu comforted Qu Han and said, "Brother Qu, don't you know the results of your hard training in the next two months?" Besides, this is the following suggestion, and it is most appropriate for me to carry it out, and besides, we are the only ones in the army who are better equipped to clean up the scouts while you wait outside. ”
After a pause, "Besides, Half Moon Valley has come down a few times, and the terrain is the most familiar, if it were you, maybe you would be discovered before you touched the place." ”
Qu Han groaned: "Since Brother Qin insists on doing this, how about Qu go with you?" Fortunately, there is a response, and Xue Yucao is outside to take care of them, and they are expected to be fine. ”
Qin Shen thought for a while, nodded and said, "That's good, it should be foolproof to have Brother Qu as a companion." ”
Cao Jin saw that they settled the matter in a few words, sighed and said helplessly: "Since you have decided, I won't say more, but I still have a question, how will you meet everyone then?" ”
"Take the picture."
Qin Shen drew an arc route based on a simple icon, "When the time comes, you will rush in according to this route, Brother Qu and I will wait around here, and we will find the horses inside...... You tell everyone to keep their eyes shining when they get here, and don't shoot us both to death. ”
Cao Jin smiled innocently, "Then how can it be, shoot your own boss, then don't we all have to bury the general." ”
"It's good that you know, I don't want to die yet, let alone die at the hands of my own people." After speaking, he subconsciously raised his hand and looked at it, and found that it was wrong and estimated in his heart, "It shouldn't be time yet, right?" ”
"Almost."
This is the disadvantage of not having a watch, Qin Shen sighed, and explained: "Brother Qu and I will go to prepare for this departure, you and Xue Yu will follow me to the vicinity and lead the horse back to avoid being discovered by the scouts, and this place will be temporarily handed over to Cheng Liu, huh...... Half an hour after you come back, you will sneak near the Hun enemy camp and wait, be sure to dispose of the scouts carefully and cleanly, if you are found early, you don't have to come to see me again! ”
"Promise!" Cao Jin's heart sank, and he hurriedly responded.
Half Moon Valley.
As the name suggests, Half Moon Valley is a valley shaped like Half Moon, surrounded by mountains on three sides, on both sides of a gentle jungle, but inside is a cliff more than ten zhang high.
Qin Shen had indeed been here a few times in the past two months, because when he explored, he always felt that this place seemed to be very similar to a certain place in his memory, and after several inspections, he found that it was not, but he also had a clear idea of where it was easy to go up the mountain.
At this moment, he and Qu Han were at the foot of the mountain closest to the cliff.
Choosing to sneak in from this side was a deliberate decision he made, although the other two sides were relatively gentle and easy, but it was very easy to make movements when traveling in the dense forest at night, and after the early detection of the scouts, there were many Hun guards in the dense forest on both sides, even if they were found and successfully cleaned up each other, it was very likely that the Huns' struggle would make others find out.
Only on this side, although the Huns were also guarded, there were not many guards, and even if there was a movement, it would not spread to the camp more than ten zhang down.
The waning moon leaps out of the east like a hook.
The faint light of the stars and moon sprinkled into the dense forest, adding some convenience to their trip to the dense forest.
I'm afraid it's harder for the army to hide, right? Qin Shen withdrew his gaze towards the assembly area, gathered his mind, and looked at Qu Han beside him.
Qu Han was also turning his head to look at him, the two looked at each other and nodded slightly, and went into the mountains and forests together.
The two of them quickly walked through the dense forest through the dappled faint light, and reached the mountainside, and the speed finally slowed down, and it was very likely that they would meet the Xiongnu any further, so that they could not be careless.
Luckily, I was about to reach the summit when I found a fire burning in a small clearing on the edge of the cliff in front of me.
People are always so afraid of darkness and loneliness, even the Huns are no exception, subconsciously want to get close to the camp, looking for a sense of security that does not actually exist.
The two looked at each other at the firelight in front of them, and they had a tacit understanding to outflank the past, until the rustling sound of their footsteps in contact with the dead branches and trees might alarm the Huns.
The five Huns sat around the fire, as if they were talking about something filthy, and from time to time they let out a silver laugh.
Every time the laughter sounded, Qin Shen took the opportunity to carefully move forward, looking for the most advantageous position.
In the end, when there were still more than thirty steps left, he did not dare to tiptoe forward for half a minute, because every step now meant the danger of losing more than he gained.
Five people, three arrows, what should I do? Just as he was thinking about how to respond, a "cooing" pheasant crow came from the other side.
I didn't expect him to have this ability! Qin Shen smiled.
The Huns looked at the place where the sound had come from, and then they chattered to each other, then pushed and slapped him on the back and head, and finally the man got up and walked in the direction of the scream with an impatient face.
There are also four people, unless they can kill two birds with one stone, but how difficult it is to kill two birds with one stone, Qin Shen shook his head helplessly, and also made a simple "cooing" sound, but it was not as similar as Qu Han's.
The Huns heard the cry from another place, and was flewing away for the distress of a pheasant's lack of points, and where did he have the heart to listen carefully to whether the call was true or false, and soon someone got up and walked towards the careful cat's waist here, as if he was afraid of disturbing the pheasant, and the three people behind him seemed to wish him good luck.
Qin Shen quietly took off his longbow and stood sideways behind the tree to observe the other three.
The three of them sat on the ground, sometimes bowing their heads and sometimes raising their heads, and he had to seize the opportunity of that moment to shoot them all in the neck, so that the other party had no chance of making a warning.
Several people muttered for a while, as if they felt that the situation was not right for being too quiet, so they all looked at Qu Han, and one of them shouted, "Gruba." ”
Seeing this situation, Qin Shen knew that the opportunity could not be lost, if he missed this time, it would be impossible, so he did not hesitate to pinch the arrow, and after quickly shooting three arrows, he threw the bow and rushed towards the Hun who was still three meters away from him, and he didn't even have time to draw out the long sword......
The Hun was attracted by the cry behind him, and just straightened up to look back, but saw the three people with arrow feathers stuck in their necks, their faces were hideous, and they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, and heard movement behind them, and were about to shout loudly, when they felt that their mouths were covered and fell to the ground......
Everything happens in a flash of light.
Qin Shen used the wrestling techniques he had learned from the grassland in his previous life to restrain the opponent fiercely under him.
The man was also extremely strong in his waist, and he was almost about to break free from the constant writhing.
Qin Shen tried his best not to let him break free, and while slowly retracting the foot that was coiled around the opponent's legs, he quickly probed down with one hand, pulled out the dagger from his boot, and stabbed the opponent's heart fiercely......
The man's body spasmed, and soon he didn't move any longer.
Qin Shen sighed with relief, let go of the hand covering his mouth, pulled out the dagger, wiped it on him, and returned it to the sheath of his boot.
"Goo~" Qin Shen got up and signaled.
"Goo-goo~" responded from the other side.
Knowing that he must have already succeeded, Qin Shen turned around and picked up the longbow and strode towards the fire, took out the arrow feather from the necks of the three Huns, wiped them on them casually, and whispered towards Qu Han who walked over: "There is no movement, it seems that your artistic appreciation of dead corpses has improved a lot." ”
"Thank you."
"I didn't expect your ventriloquist to be so vivid and a hundred times better than me, were you a street juggler before?"
Qu Han was silent.
Qin Shen chuckled, and the two buried the fire, and then dragged the body into the dense forest to avoid being discovered by the Xiongnu in other places nearby, and then lowered the rope.
"You go down first, I'll cut the rope."
