Chapter 266

Why did Zhao Yu say such a thing?

Looking down from the small hill that Zhao Yu was watching, I saw that on the small hill, the Song army cut it down, and it was still fresh and had no time to cut off the branches of the wood, and mixed earth, sand and stone to build a very simple half-human high chest wall. The dust was flying below the hill, and thousands of brute soldiers surrounded the hill layer by layer.

From time to time, attacks were launched from one side, but this attack had just been launched, and the other side had launched another attack, and the barbarians who had launched the attack before retreated in a chaotic manner, tossing the Song army on the small hill very lightly.

Fortunately, Yang Wenguang was firm enough at this time, took out a blood-stained cloth strip, tied it to his forehead, and did not wear a helmet. When there is an enemy situation, there is a loud voice of encouragement to the soldiers. The morale of the Song army did not decrease and remained at a considerable level.

Compared with this, what made Zhao Yu even more jealous was that in addition to the thousands of barbarians surrounding the hills, there were also seven or eight hundred barbarians scattered around the hills, cooking rice, and building simple barracks felling, which seemed very chaotic. If there is a strange soldier from behind at this time, it doesn't need too much, two or three hundred elite soldiers are enough to kill this Anhua man defeated and collapsed, but Zhao Yu saw that in the sky above the dense forest not far away, birds were circling endlessly.

If you are an ordinary person, you naturally don't feel anything.

Zhao Yu knew that it was because there were people in ambush in the forest, and there was a strong murderous aura. It is already dusk time, and the birds are eager to return to their nests. If it weren't for the large number of ambushes inside, how could these birds be hovering in the sky?

The reason why An Huaman used cumbersome tactics to disturb the troops was to lure out his own people. But they may also feel it. This is just a small group of Song Jun who came to inquire about the situation. After all, Ma Yu is still behind with suspicious soldiers. Now it is estimated that it has arrived in Liucheng. To say that a certain scout was greedy and rushed to kill here, but it is barely said that it is in the past.

Now I hope that there are not many Anhua barbarian troops!

Zhao Yu took a few steps back and said to Zhao Yingwu: "Go!" Check it out to Longshui City! ”

Zhao Yingwu was shocked and said, "Lord Wang! It's too dangerous! I can't help it! ”

The soldier also said: "Lord Wang, such a dangerous thing, just send Xiao to go, why take the risk?" ”

Zhao Yu shook his head and said, "Other people watched it." How can it be the same as what this king sees? And if the meaning of what they mean is not clear enough, it is easy for the three armies to be defeated! As for the danger you are talking about, it is only ten miles away from the Anhua barbarian army at most, and once it is discovered, isn't this king dangerous? With all these dangers in place, what is there to fear? Don't you know that dead pigs are not afraid of boiling water? ”

Zhao Yingwu looked at Zhao Yu angrily and funny, and said, "Lord Wang, are you treating yourself as a dead pig?" ”

Zhao Yu smiled disapprenously: "If you can't win this battle, then you will really be a dead pig." Okay, stop talking nonsense. Walk! ”

The group of three cautiously groped their way forward, but fortunately it was now the end of the month. The moon in the sky became a crooked silver tooth. Zhao Yu and the others were wearing camouflage uniforms, and although they encountered several groups of barbarians who probed horses and patrolled along the way, they all crossed their defense line without danger. When I came to the outside of Longshui City, I saw countless bonfires lit up in a wilderness, forming a sky like stars.

"Let's go! Go to the mountain! Zhao Yu pointed to the hill not far away. In fact, it is an exaggeration to say that the hill is exaggerated, it is only a steep hill with a circumference of fifty or sixty meters, and at the top there are two or three old pine trees that look like they have been in time for a long time.

I finally climbed up, but I still didn't see it well enough. Zhao Yu said: "You guys are watching below, and this king climbs up the tree to take a look!" ”

Where did Zhao Huanwu dare to let Zhao Yu take risks? "Lord, I can't help it! This pine tree sticks out of the hillock, more than three feet above the ground, once it falls, it is really the kind that can't die again! ”

Zhao Yu didn't listen to persuasion, tore two strips of cloth from his clothes, wrapped them around his hands to prevent wear and tear, and went to climb the tree. Zhao Yingwu was helpless, so he could only assist Zhao Yu in the back.

Zhao Yu also knew that it was powerful, so he didn't dare to climb to the top of the tree, and when he reached the waist of the pine tree, he found a thick trunk and stood up. When he opened his eyes and looked over, he saw that Longshui City was heavily guarded. Fifty or sixty meters away from the city wall, there was also a circle of scattered bonfires, presumably to prevent Anhuaman from stealing the city at night. With this circle of scattered bonfires, when Anhua approached, it was really more difficult not to be discovered than to climb to the sky.

Look at An Huaman again, An Huaman is now surrounding Longshui City in all directions. The main force is in the eastern part of the city wall. Because this is where the only land gate in Longshui City is located. I don't know how many soldiers and horses there are in the city wall in other directions, but the Anhua man outside the east wall, Zhao Yu counted carefully, and there are about two hundred and thirty tents and barracks.

The barracks are okay, they all look about the same size. But tents can be big and small. Not all of these barracks and tents were inhabited, and some of them were used to store important items, such as ordnance and money. It is estimated that there are about 200 tents and barracks that are really used to live in people.

Zhao Yu silently calculated in his heart that An Huaman's strength should be between 18,000 and 12,000. Because the eastern wall is the main attack, the number of troops is naturally the largest. The northern wall is a waterway, and it is estimated that there are not many people and horses, most of them are just wooden stakes to block the waterway. At most, two or three hundred people will be placed on the other side of the bank for surveillance.

The strength of the south and west walls is estimated to be about 1,000 people on one side, after all, there is no city gate, and it is difficult for the Song army to come out and raid. Their duty is to harass and put some pressure on the Song army defending the city!

Coupled with the barbarian soldiers surrounded by Yang Wenguang, the strength of Anhua Barbarian this time is a little less than last time. About 25,000 people! Even less, but no less than 20,000.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, which was much less than the more than 30,000 people he had expected before. The reputation of doing more with less is certainly good, but opportunities and risks coexist. And leading the troops to fight, Zhao Yu has long understood that stability is the most important thing!

"Lord Wang! Rajah! Zhao Yingwu shouted anxiously under the tree.

"What's wrong?" Zhao Yu held on to the pine tree, looked down and asked.

"Someone's coming!" Zhao Yingwu looked at the back, and his tone was full of anxiety.

Zhao Yu looked at the back, and sure enough, there were a few more fires on the small mountain road behind. I think someone was carrying a torch and returning to the Anhua Manda camp from the small hill where Yang Wenguang was located overnight. I think he is either an important general in Anhuaman, or he has important military information. It's a pity that there aren't many people here!

Zhao Yu sighed regretfully and slowly climbed down from the pine tree. Zhao Huanwu immediately stepped forward and said with a relieved look: "Lord Wang, is everything done?" ”

"Hmmm! It's good to go! Zhao Yu said, and left first.

Zhao Yingwu greeted the pro-soldier who led the way, and the two hurriedly followed Zhao Yu.

"Strategist, are you tired? Do you want to take a breather? Feng Tongwolf looked at Mu Chang and asked respectfully from the bottom of his heart. Although Feng Tongwolf is the deputy captain of Feng Changqi's guard, he is afraid of having a trace of disrespect for the scholar in front of him.

Although Mu Chang was in the army, he was still dressed as a scholar, wearing a snow-white soldier's uniform. Hearing this, he nodded and said, "It's okay, just rest under that hill!" ”

"Yes!" When Feng Tongwolf heard this, he immediately took someone there to clean up first. He knew that Mu Chang liked to be clean the most, so even in the army, he wore spotless snow-white clothes. Once it was stained, he immediately had to change his clothes, and because of this, Mu Chang didn't know how many times he was said ill of by other chiefs. It's just that in Feng Tongwolf's opinion, this is the day that a superior person should have, and he yearns for it from the bottom of his heart.

It didn't take long for several strong brute soldiers to carry the bamboo sedan chair to the bottom of the hill.

Mu Chang looked up at the sky, and just saw a few ancient pines above his head, and couldn't help but be interested. got off the bamboo sedan chair and said to Feng Tongwolf: "These old pines are good!" It's really 'straight, shameful, and the iron clothes are jerky and purple. 'Let's go, go up and see!' ”

Although Feng Tongwolf didn't know what Mu Chang meant by what he just said, he had a feeling when he heard it, although he didn't know what the Zhenguo Military Division said, but it seemed to be very powerful! Feng Tongwolf immediately nodded like a chicken, and said, "It is a blessing for me to be able to touch the temperament of a military advisor!" ”

Mu Chang laughed and patted Feng Tongwolf's shoulder. When Feng Tongwolf arrived, it was like drinking a bowl of iced sour plum soup in dog days, and he was so happy that he was groaning all over his body. Recite.

At that moment, the two of them found a place that was smooth after all and prepared to go up, but suddenly Mu Chang paused and stretched out his hand to stop Feng Tongwolf, who was about to go up after him.

Feng Tongwolf looked sideways at Mu Chang in confusion and said, "Strategist, what's wrong?" Didn't you go up to see Honka? ”

Mu Chang shook his head, and said with a somewhat solemn face: "Someone went up just now!" Did you see that? This footprint! ”

Feng Tongwolf looked at Mu Chang's fingers, and sure enough, he saw a fresh footprint, and the soil nearby was still moist. "Who is it?"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Mu Chang's mouth, and he said, "Scout! And it's Song Jun's! ”

When Feng Tongwolf heard this, his eyes widened, and he immediately pulled out the sharp knife on his waist with a sonorous sound. "Strategist, you hide behind! I'll go up and chop up those Song dogs! ”

Mu Chang shook his head and said, "No! They're gone! Look here, the direction of this footprint! ”

Feng Tongwolf took a closer look, and it was really the footprints of leaving.

Feng Tongwolf breathed a sigh of relief, and several inquiries sounded behind him, and it was those barbarians who heard the sound of drawing their swords and rushed over. "Nothing more! Let's go back! ”

Mu Chang looked up at Honkatsu, who leaned out of the small half of his body, and his eyes shot a hateful gaze. "Sure enough! Yang Wenguang is just a chess piece, the one who leads the soldiers, is it you? Zhao Yu!! ”

When he said the word Zhao Yu, Mu Chang's voice was full of chilling chills. How much hatred does it take to make such a sound? (To be continued......)
