Chapter 468 Unexpected

The tent was covered with broken branches and knee-high weeds, and from a distance, it looked like an ordinary grassy slope. Because of the cover of branches and weeds, the occasional sunlight falling through the cracks in the branches of the trees did not shine on the tent with little power, and did not make the temperature in the tent as high as a steamer. But even so, the tent still looked stuffy.

It's almost impossible to find a place to feel comfortable on a July day, even in the shade of a tree. The stuffy breath is pervasive, and some people who are irritable want to scold their mothers. But the soldiers of Yanyunzhai, who had not slept all night and had rushed nearly thirty miles, slept very sweetly in the dense forest, and in their opinion, it was already a very satisfying thing to rest in a forest.

If it weren't for the secret spy who had arranged the journey in advance, who knows if he would have slept in the sun today?

Li Xian felt a little depressed in the tent, so he simply opened the curtain and walked out. Niu Jinda followed him, and the two of them sat down on a stone under a large tree.

"How far is this place from Liu Heimin's military camp?"

Li Xian asked.

Niu Jinda calculated the distance and said: "According to the itinerary specified by the secret spy before, tonight's overnight journey, tomorrow's daytime rest, tomorrow night's overnight journey, if you continue to rest during the day after tomorrow, you will definitely be able to arrive before midnight the day after tomorrow." If it is a night attack, as long as the soldiers insist on holding on, they can kill it when the day after tomorrow is over. ”

Li Xian nodded: "Your calculation is based on the infantry." ”

Niu Jinda said: "Well, according to the fastest speed of the infantry, it will take two whole nights and half a night. If the cavalry is on the road non-stop, tomorrow when the sun rises, you can see the watchtower of Liu Heimin's camp. The soldiers have a day's rest and will be able to launch a surprise attack tomorrow night. ”

Li Xian snorted, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he didn't know what he was calculating.

Li Xian was silent for a while and said, "Can you still hurry now?" ”

Niu Jinda nodded and said, "No problem." ”

"That's good"

Li Xian stood up and said: "You rush back now, aren't there a few generals in Liu Heimin's military camp who are already familiar with you, tomorrow at noon you will find a way to invite all the generals of the Xia army who are familiar with you to drink, how many people can be invited, and at noon tomorrow, I will personally lead the army to the camp!" ”

"Lord!"

Niu Jinda was startled, stood up suddenly, and said, "The lord plans to take only light horses to raid Liu Heimin's camp?" Today is a day off, and it will be too risky to start tomorrow morning when it gets dark, and it is too risky to attack after only half a day's rest. The body of the lord and the daughter, don't be so dangerous! Moreover, even if all the light cavalry is assembled, it is only 5,000 people, although Liu Heimin has just taken over Su Dingfang's men and horses, but those 30,000 people are the most elite team under Dou Jiande, in case the attack is frustrated, the backup will not have time to arrive. ”

"Where is there a daughter."

Li Xian smiled and said, "It's all two legs, two hands and one head, nothing special." ”

He lowered his voice and said, "As long as you know about this matter, you can't mention it to anyone." You rush back now, as long as you take some of Liu Heimin's generals away, you will already succeed for the most part. You don't have to worry about other things, Lone has confidence in Yanyun Light Ride. ”

"But ......"

"No, but!"

Li Xian stood up and waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”

Niu Jinda had no choice but to salute and turn away. He immediately set out on the road with his entourage, and a group of more than a dozen people got on their horses and rushed out of the dense forest, and soon disappeared from sight. After Niu Jinda left, Li Xian immediately instructed his soldiers: "Go and find General Qin, General Cheng, and General Xiong." ”

Not long after, Qin Qiong and the others, who had just laid down and had not fallen asleep, hurried over.

Li Xian asked the three of them to lean over and whispered a few words, Qin Qiong and the three of them immediately changed their faces, but Li Xian didn't give them a chance to dissuade them at all, and gave an order simply and directly, then stood up and stretched and said: "Let's all go back to sleep, no one should bother Gu again before dark, of course, if you haven't woken up before dark, Gu will send someone to wake you up." ”

He waved his hand and said, "Go ahead, whatever happens, wait until it gets dark." ”

Qin Qiong and the others looked at the back of Li Xian leaving, looking at each other, the three of them, you look at me, I look at you, their faces are a little dignified. They really couldn't have imagined that the lord would have such a bold plan. It's just that now, the three of them have no way to stop this from happening.

I don't know when, the wind became stronger and stronger, blowing through the dense forest, and the soldiers who were sleeping on the ground finally felt a comfortable and thorough feeling, and in the sound of the wind blowing the leaves, a look of satisfaction appeared on the sleeping faces of the soldiers.

Li Xian lay on the bed and also slept very sweetly.

……

……

Niu Jinda rushed back to the place called Qiujia Town with more than a dozen entourages in the starry night, and Liu Heimin took over Su Dingfang's 30,000 Xia Army camp in the north of Qiujia Town. Less than fifteen miles south from Qiujia Town is the crossing of the Yellow River, before July this military camp was still in the south of Qiujia Town, and later because of the more frequent conflicts with the water division of Yanyunzhai, Su Dingfang ordered the camp to retreat to the north for more than ten miles, although it looked a little like showing weakness, but Su Dingfang himself did not think so.

After Liu Heimin took over this army, he actually ordered the army to retreat a few miles north again.

If Su Dingfang ordered the retreat north because he was annoyed by the continuous provocation of the Yanyunzhai Naval Division, and the soldiers could understand this military order, then they were a little puzzled by the fact that Liu Heimin immediately ordered the battalion to retreat a few miles north when he first arrived here, so it is not surprising that some people say that Liu Heimin is a coward.

Retreated first without fighting, and it looked a little aggrieved no matter what.

However, the Xia army is also well-trained, and this 30,000 horses called the Flying Bear Army are the most elite team in the Xia army, although the soldiers look down on Liu Heimin's style of acting, but they still carry out the order thoroughly. It's just that it's far away from Qiujia Town, and it's a little difficult to go to the town to have some fun.

After Liu Heimin arrived in the army, he did not announce any military orders, but he was a routine general, ordering the army to train normally, and he was not allowed to go out of the barracks without permission, and he never convened the generals to discuss the matter. All the generals had heard of Liu Heimin's name and knew that he was a person with real skills. But this kind of performance still made them have to be a little contemptuous, so that in just two days, it began to quietly circulate in the barracks, and I don't know who was so boring to give Liu Heimin a nickname.

Liu Yi

In any case, there is no praise for this cowardice.

But Liu Heimin pretended not to know, and he didn't even go out of the door of the military tent for ten days.

As a result, the soldiers and generals despised him even more. It's just that on the tenth day, Liu Heimin suddenly beat the drum and raised the tent, and when the generals hurried over, some people were still a little late. Liu Heimin didn't leave any affection, and ordered all the generals who were late to be punished with twenty rods, and there was another general who roared in the hall, and he ordered him to die with a rod alive. Within ten days of his arrival, he also named out all kinds of people who had violated the law and discipline in the army, and without any politeness, demoted two generals and six or seven lieutenants to soldiers in one go, and then he arranged for his own soldiers to supplement these official posts. The biggest trick is the individual general who was killed by the cane, and this general is still the general in charge of the baggage battalion. To grasp the baggage battalion in his own hands is to choke the lifeblood of this team.

It was very unfortunate that Niu Jinda rushed back, and it happened that Liu Heimin had just finished his might. He sent people to try to contact the generals of the Xia army who were familiar with him, but those people could not leave the camp under the pretext that they were busy with military affairs. After Niu Jinda sent someone to find out, the troubles and panic in his heart can be imagined.

The task given to him by Li Xian was to entertain the generals of the Xia Army at noon on the second day, but now not a single general could be invited. This made Niu Jinda's heart like a boulder, full of uneasiness.

In the past, when Su Dingfang was there, he could even enter and leave the barracks freely. But now it is Liu Heimin who is in charge of the military camp, and I am afraid that he will be recognized by Liu Heimin as soon as he shows up.

What to do!

Niu Jinda hurriedly paced back and forth in the room, but the more anxious he was, the more he couldn't think of a solution. He drove back and forth for several days in a row, but he didn't feel sleepy at all. Until the early hours of the morning, the lights were still on in his room, and he could be seen walking back and forth through the window.

He was worried about how to complete the task assigned by Li Xian, but he didn't know that the danger was approaching him little by little.

……

……

"General Niu, why don't I go to the Xia Army camp again?"

Jia Guang, the spy group in charge of cooperating with him, was also very anxious, he hesitated for a moment and said: "Those guys are greedy for money, I will prepare a few generous gifts early tomorrow and take our silver, they can't still stay in the barracks and not come out." ”

"Liu Heimin intends to establish power, and no one dares to touch the mold at this time."

Niu Jinda sighed and said, "Who knew it was so unfortunate? ”

"Or ......"

A hint of coldness flashed in Jia Guang's eyes: "Tonight, I will sneak into the Xia Army camp with secret spies, and I can kill a few and kill a few." ”

"No way!"

Niu Jinda waved his hand and said: "Tonight's move will only startle the grass and snakes, if Liu Heimin intensifies his inspection, it will be even more detrimental to the lord's affairs." ”

"But we can't just be idle."

Jia Guang said with some eagerness.

"Wait!"

Niu Jinda suddenly thought of something, and he smiled and said, "There is a way." ”

He pondered for a while and said, "Aren't there more than a dozen generals who have been reprimanded by Liu Heimin's cane today?" Isn't he helping us? Tomorrow you will find a way to enter the camp of the summer army, and bring some medicine in under the pretext of sending medicine to those generals who have been beaten. Whether it was beaten or not, as long as the generals of the Xia Army who we had won over each gave one each, the incense of the second department of the Military Inspection Department came in handy, it was we who got the tip of the horns, why do we have to invite those people out to drink? As long as they can't get up when the lord kills, it's just that you have to grasp the time, don't be too early, too early will arouse Liu Heimin's vigilance! ”

"Good!"

Jia Guang's face also became relaxed: "If you can't invite them, it's not difficult for our people to get in." Which of those soldiers guarding the door hasn't taken our benefits? ”

As he was talking, suddenly the window was slammed by something, a huge black shadow smashed the window and fell to the ground, Niu Jinda took a step back and grabbed the horizontal knife on the table, Jia Guang was already protecting him, when the two people looked down, they saw that the black shadow on the ground was the secret spy who was on guard outside the courtyard gate, and someone had pierced a blood hole in the chest, and the person was no longer breathing.

There was a commotion outside the courtyard, apparently surrounded by people. It's just that there are at least 20 secret agents from the military inspection office inside and outside this courtyard, and none of them have been able to raise a warning.

Not only outside this courtyard, but the entire Qiujia Town was surrounded by at least two thousand armor soldiers. Hundreds of archers surrounded this small courtyard for several floors, and behind the archers, the streets and alleys of Qiujia Town and even on the rooftops of the houses were densely packed with elite warriors armed with simple swords.

Niu Jinda and Jia Guang's faces changed at the same time, and just as they were about to rush out, a slightly hoarse voice sounded outside, with a bit of pride and pride in their tones.

"Brother Jinda, don't come to harm?"
