Scout leader: "Your Highness, the little one doesn't know." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 infoYue Yun Demon Clan's camp was in an open space, and many bonfires were lit, illuminating it white on all sides. The little ones didn't dare to approach, so they hid from a distance and watched. However, after monitoring in the middle of the night, Xiao always felt that something was wrong, and it was too quiet over there. After a long time, the fires were extinguished one by one, and the little ones had the courage to move closer, only to find that the more than 100 demons did not know where to flee. ”

"What, you don't even know what you're eating?" Zhong Ziang was furious.

All the generals breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, and said one after another: "His Royal Highness the Prince, since the Yue Demon has disappeared, there is no need to fight again tomorrow!" ”

"Yes, yes, Yue Yun and his subordinates don't know where to hide, they have to prevent them from making ghosts, it's better to go to see the King of Chu earlier." Everyone agreed.

Zhong Ziang: "It seems that you are all cowardly wastes who don't want to fight." Just now, everyone mentioned that Yang Qi was extremely respectful, which made him angry and jealous in his heart, and he had nowhere to vent his anger. grabbed the scout leader's chest and shouted: "Since you don't know where the enemy has gone now, why don't you go to find out, what are you going to do when you come back, really think Lao Tzu's military law is vegetarian?" ”

There was a fierce light in his eyes suddenly: "Come on, behead this guy!" ”

Seeing that he was about to be beheaded, the scout leader hurriedly shouted: "Your Highness, Your Highness spare your life!" It's not a villain's dereliction of duty, but there is really another urgent military situation that needs to be told to you, so I hurried to tell you. ”

Zhong Ziang: "What emergency military situation do you have?" ”

Scout leader: "Although Yue Yun is missing, the little ones have found another group of officers and soldiers. ”

"Another group of officers and soldiers, what's going on?"

Scout leader: "It seems to be a heavy team, with about 100 people and 10 carts, loaded with a lot of good things." Now, that group of officers and soldiers is encamping 23 miles away from our army, and it looks like they are going to transport grain and baggage to Dingzhou. ”

Zhong Ziang perked up: "One hundred people, ten or two large cars, what is on the car?" ”

"It's all cloth, full of ten carts of cloth, a lot of good things, the little one knows that the army is short of winter clothes, so he doesn't dare to delay, so he hurriedly ran back to tell him."

"Cloth, ten cars...... Silk ...... "Everyone, including Zhong Ziang, took a breath of cold air, and realized what these ten carts of cloth meant to the "righteous army" at this moment.

Since the uprising of the rebels in February this year, they and Li Chengjun have repeatedly fought in the area around Dongting Lake, and both sides have coincidentally used scorched earth tactics. Everywhere you go, you should first rob them on a large scale, take away everything you can, and if you can't take them away, you will burn them with fire and kill them with a knife, and you must not leave them to the enemy anyway.

This is already a pure tactic of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, depending on who can hold out to the end.

In this way, you kill it, I burn it, and slaughter the prefectures and counties south of Dongting Lake into a wild world.

At the beginning, the "righteous army" lived a nourishing life by robbing and coerced a large number of Ding Zhuang, but gradually, as the supplies could not be replenished, the days became more and more bitter. They didn't think much about it when they were soldiers, anyway, they just took it one step at a time. The first half of the year was fine, but as soon as autumn came, the weather suddenly became cold. Most of the poor cultists are still wearing summer clothes, and this set of clothes has long been tattered after half a year of war. Maybe another month or two will pass, and before the officers and soldiers come to fight, everyone will freeze to death first.

The wet and cold winter in the southern Zeguo water towns is a season that is more terrible than the cold weather in the north.

Suddenly, there are so many ten cars of clothing materials in front of him, and it is a lie to say that he is not tempted.

Besides, isn't it a robbery when everyone comes out this time? I opened this mountain, I planted this tree, and I want to hit this place and leave it to buy money.

Zhong Ziang's eyes were full of fine light: "Really, do you see clearly?" ”

The head of the waiter: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, the villain has the courage to go to the reeds twenty paces away from the officers and soldiers to see it really, and the car is full of fine linen." Those officers and soldiers were also very cold, and they all ripped off the cloth on the car and wrapped it around their bodies to keep out the cold. ”

"Hahaha, it's good, it's good, the wealth is in front of you, don't rob it, Lao Tzu's thoughts are not accessible." Zhong Ziang laughed happily: "Yue Yun doesn't care about it, tomorrow at dawn, I will wait for the whole army to go out and rob the ten carts of linen." ”

A general worried: "Your Highness, could this be a bait set by the officials and soldiers to lure us into a trap." Didn't Yue Yunbu suddenly disappear, would he just be ambushed aside? ”

"yes, you can't be on guard." The officers were all nodding.

Zhong Ziang was furious: "It's all useless things, even if Yue Yun is ambushed on the side, is it possible that his hundred people can surround our more than 1,000 soldiers." I was about to look for Yue Yun's bad luck, but it was better that he didn't come, and he just happened to be wiped out together. ”

Everyone was still full of worries, and they were about to be persuaded when the head of the squire suddenly interjected: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, generals, according to the villain, these ten carts of linen cloth are not a trap set by Yue Yun." ”

Zhong Ziang: "What do you say?" ”

The head of the scout said cautiously: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, generals, you also know the skills of villains, who were born on this water since childhood, and feed on fish and shrimp all day long. It's watery, it's not a small boast, and it's okay to stay in the water for three days and three nights. ”

Zhong Ziang looked at his round body full of white flesh, and nodded: "Your water nature is good, otherwise it is impossible to be a scout, go on." ”

Scout leader: "The prince and the generals know that the villain has always been careful in doing things, and when he saw so many carts of linen, he was also worried that it was a trap set by the officials and soldiers. I was not in a hurry to come back to tell him, so I hid aside and eavesdropped in the middle of the night, only then did I figure out the origin of this team. It turned out that they were also the ranks of the Sizhou Army. However, it was not a regular army, but a village army. It's not from Anlu, it's Jiankang. ”

"Jiankang, how did you come from Jiankang?" Someone asked curiously.

The scout leader replied: "It turns out that this pair of people and horses are the people sent by Wang Shen to Jiankang a few months ago to give gifts to Du Chong to curry favor, and after they came back, they brought ten carts of cloth by the way. It is estimated that he heard that Wang Shen came to Hunan, so he came to meet him. And ......" he looked excited: "Also, there are two incredible big people in this team." ”

"What big shot?"

Scout leader: "One is Du Shu, the prefect of Ezhou, the judge of the Sizhou army, and the other is Wu Tuo, the former deputy commander of the Shengjie Army and the current commander of the water army." ”

"Ahh Everyone was dumbfounded, a prefect, and a commander. Not to mention the ruler, the prefect is a member of the four grades!

Zhong Zi was overjoyed and giggled: "It's very good, I really caught a big fish, and it will be dawn in an hour to see the situation, so I ordered everyone to get up for Lao Tzu, take a boat and kill the team of people and horses for me, and catch me that is the dog prefect." Don't worry about any traps, even if the Sizhou thieves want to set up a government, it is impossible to use the dignified prefect and the control officer as bait. I have made up my mind, if anyone says one more nonsense, there will be no mercy! ”

"Yes, I will obey the orders of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" The crowd still couldn't resist the temptation of the ten carts of cloth, and at the same time gave up.
