Along the way, the march lasted several nights, and every day in the middle of the night, hundreds of people from the Beichen Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom would disappear. The general plan has not changed, except that the elite troops that have disappeared in both countries have changed. Because there were no white soldiers in the Xia State, the people who were sent out to carry out the secret plan were Han Chinese, and all of them were elite soldiers in the army. And the Xia State randomly selected some foreign soldiers from the servant army, after all, they were just to cover the elite soldiers of the Xia State. Let the servant sergeant go to attack the enemy of the beacon tower, Xiao Chen is really not very relieved.
Hundreds of people disappeared every night, which was simply inconspicuous for an army with an army of more than two million. Even the rest of the soldiers in the two * may not have known that their army had disappeared by thousands in a few nights. In this way, not to mention the spies who are far away in the country where the sun never sets. They didn't even notice that the soldiers of the two countries would secretly travel in the middle of the night. In the information transmitted to the country, there is no news that the troops of the two countries have disappeared.
When the main armies of the two countries came to their positions, they stood across the river from the opposite side of the Sunset National River Defense Battalion. Except for some high-ranking personnel of the Beichen Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom, as well as a few army commanders, no one knew that the entire army was missing thousands of men. And the thousands of men and horses who disappeared were nesting in a small ravine between the main armies of the two countries at this time, and the main general was none other than Bruce, the commander of the servant army of the Beichen Kingdom. They now have a total of more than 8,400 soldiers and horses, including 4,400 elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom and 4,000 servant soldiers of the Beichen Kingdom.
Among these troops, only the 4,400 elite soldiers of the Xia State were the main force to carry out the plan. The servants of the army are just communicating with the enemy on the beacon tower of the country where the sun never sets, and then covering the elite soldiers of the Xia country to carry out the plan. At this moment, more than 8,000 people are living in a big ravine, and for the sake of concealment, it is impossible for the troops of the two countries to transport grain and grass for them. And all they had with them was some dry food. However, all this will soon pass, and in three days, the small boat of the Xia Kingdom that has come to assist should arrive. On top of those small boats, all the meat and wine were loaded. Although these are all given to the soldiers of the country where the sun never sets on the opposite beacon, it shouldn't be a problem for everyone to eat a delicious meal in advance.
Within a few days of that, both Beichen and Xia launched attacks on the enemy across the river. However, due to the interception of the opposing warships, none of the infantry of the two countries was able to cross the river. At that time, the naval divisions of the two sides fought very frequently, and the Beichen Kingdom faced the main naval force of the country where the sun never sets, and the four or five thousand warships on both sides were in full swing. Although the Xia Kingdom only faced one-tenth of the warships of the country where the sun never set, the sailors of the Xia country had just been established, and they had fought a long time with the navy of the country on which the sun never set, and they did not distinguish a victory or defeat.
Everyone in the country where the sun never sets was very happy to see that the army of more than 4 million people in Beichen and Xia was blocked on the other side of the river and could not cross. And between Beichen Kingdom and Xia Kingdom, there is no low mood. Needless to say, the ordinary soldiers between the two countries are obliged to fight on the battlefield, but this plan is none of their business. Therefore, the soldiers were also idle for a while. Now it is the sailor division troops who are fighting with the country where the sun never sets, and everyone has nothing to do and runs to the river to watch the big battle between the sailors.
As for a group of high-ranking generals, they drank tea in the tent with peace of mind. Now that several days have passed, it must be time for the army to move to the place where the river is crossed. With the above strategy, the generals of the two countries are not worried about the current development of the situation.
Late the next night, as expected, most of the generals in the army were not present, and the two countries held a military meeting at the same time that night. The first order was to organize a large army and immediately go to the place where the river was crossed. Aim to get there within four days, and the brothers who carry out the plan will begin their work on the night of the third day. As soon as they succeeded, they would immediately start crossing the river when the army came. Then seize the cities in various places, as well as important strategic locations, to prevent the counterattack of the army of the country on which the sun never sets.
On the morning of the next day, the Nuoda camp in Beichen and Xia was completely empty. It's just that from the outside, you really don't know that there is no one in the camp anymore. All this was discussed, and when the army left the camp, a large number of straw men were arranged to put on armor and rank on the camp wall to confuse the spies of the country on which the sun never sets. Sure enough, this trick is still very useful, after all, the spies of the country where the sun never sets are too bold to run to the gate of the camp to reconnoitre. Therefore, knowing that at noon, the news that the camp was empty was learned by the spies of the country where the sun never sets.
This is also because some people feel that something is wrong within the two countries' camps, and after the two countries' armies have set up camp, the earth-shattering sound of training will be heard every morning. But I didn't hear it today, and the spies who made the sun never set thought that the two countries were resting today. However, when it was time to eat at noon, there was not a single trace of smoke in the camps of the two countries. This puzzled the spies of the country where the sun never sets, and the millions of troops needed a lot of food alone. Now, how could there not be a trace of smoke rising from the camp.
Eventually, several daring spies ran to the vicinity of the camp and watched for a long time, only to find that these soldiers were unarmed. When I walked in, I saw it,, it was all straw men.
At this moment, the spies arranged by the entire country where the sun never sets immediately panicked. Millions of armies have run away under the noses of the big guys, and if the king knows about it, he will have to chop himself up. So, while transmitting the news of the disappearance of the army of the Beichen Kingdom and the army of the Xia Kingdom to the country, he searched everywhere for the traces of the current armies of the two countries. However, the millions of troops of the two countries have been marching for a long time all night and a half. In addition, it was difficult for the spies in the country where the sun never set to judge the movements of the army, and when the spies discovered the main forces of the two countries again in the afternoon two days later, the army was only a little more than 100 miles away from the planned area to cross the river.
Two days ago, when the spies brought the news of the disappearance of the main forces of Beichen Kingdom and Xia Kingdom, Wei was frightened in a cold sweat on the spot. The two messages came on the same day, and the content was all the news of the disappearance of the enemy's main force. It shows that Beichen Kingdom and Xia Kingdom are definitely premeditated now, and it is very likely that the premeditation has begun to be implemented now. This idea frightened Will, and he hurriedly let the army of Jiangfang, which was not led by the sunset, march eastward and take precautions along the river. And Galahad, who led the river defense camp in Gran, after getting the news, also hurriedly asked the army to search around for any action on the other side within a hundred miles of the river.
Even the naval forces were mobilized, and they were asked to look along the river to see where something was wrong, and to prevent the enemy from taking advantage of the situation to cross the river. However, the navy of the country where the sun never sets did not make any moves, not because it was not uncooperative, but because it was bullied too hard by the sailors of Beichen Kingdom. Now his million naval officers and men only dare to come out and sneak around twice at night, and they don't dare to move at all during the day. After a long time of fighting with the Beichen Naval Division, the navy of the country where the sun never sets also suffered a lot of losses. At least, now when facing the Beichen National Naval Division, the navy of the country where the sun never sets is already at an absolute disadvantage.
Under such circumstances, how dare the navy, which never sets, act rashly?
It wasn't until today that Vir and Galahad got the latest intelligence information, and they had discovered the traces of the main armies of the Beichen Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom. The two armies marched in opposite directions, as if to meet somewhere. This news immediately startled Will. The two armies met, and there was really a conspiracy. Later, Vir was also glad about his arrangement. Fortunately, he directly let the army move eastward before, but it was only a little slower than the movement of the Xia army.
But it's nothing to do, don't forget, if the Beichen Kingdom and the Xia Kingdom want to meet, they will definitely cross the river. And the army of more than 4 million people crossed the river, so it is necessary to say how difficult it will be. Being able to transport half of the army to Jiangbei overnight can be regarded as the other party's strength. The navy has not had any information recently that Beichen Kingdom's naval division has been dispatched, so he should be able to arrive when the enemy's main force crosses the river.
Galahad, on the other hand, wasted two days in vain. When the information came, he began to mobilize the army. It's not that Galahad's IQ is inferior to Ville, but that the two are in different eras, and their vision and situation are naturally different. When the army of Xia disappeared, Wei felt that he must have gone with the Beichen Division, and then he chose a place to cross the river. However, in Galahad's view, it is likely that the enemy was playing a ploy to lure his army away from the Jiangfang camp. Then Beichen used the sailors to contain his own navy and suddenly crossed the river. If the army of Beichen Kingdom wants to cross the river, it must definitely leave the opposite side of itself, and then choose a place to cross the river not far away.
Therefore, all along, Galahad had been letting the troops patrol around, just to prevent the Beichen army from suddenly crossing the river somewhere. As a result, I didn't expect that the Beichen army actually ran to the west, and it was going to join the Xia army. Galahad immediately ordered the army to run westward, not to be able to run ahead of the enemy, but to block the enemy's deep advance. After all, the defense of the Qianli River sounds very domineering, but the area directly defended by the country where the sun never sets is only 300 miles. Nearly 700 miles of land can only be guarded by beacon towers, and it is completely undefended.
When the main forces of the Immortal Kingdom, the Xia Kingdom, and the Beichen Kingdom were hurrying at full speed, Bruce, who had been staying in the small ravine for several days, finally waited for this night. Later, more than a hundred small boats were pulled out of the ravine, and some rich supplies were carried onto the boats. In this way, the small boat, which was originally capable of accommodating more than a hundred people, was suddenly half filled and could only accommodate more than fifty soldiers. But it's not a big deal, it's a big deal, it's just two sets of rounds, and nothing is delayed at all.
The hundred small boats first sailed to the middle of the river, and in this position, the beacon on the opposite side could not observe the situation in the river at all. Coupled with the cover of the night, nothing can be seen. Fifty boats then rowed west, while forty-nine continued downstream. Only one small boat was left behind, and continued to the other side of the river.
Soon, when he was about to drive to the river, he was immediately discovered by the beacon tower by the river. The soldiers on the beacon tower, looking at the small boat moving dozens of meters in front, immediately shouted: "Stop, who are you, what are you!" β
"Hey, sir, we're villagers from the village over there. Look at the hard work of the chiefs, and send some food to the chiefs! The servant sergeant on the ship immediately returned to the Tao in English.
When the soldier heard that it was food brought by the villagers, his heart was overjoyed. In addition, it was a small boat, not a warship, so the soldier just said again: "Why don't you go from the land!" β
"Sir, we have transported a lot of things to the chiefs, and it is difficult to travel by land. So we found a small boat and came by boat. β
Hearing this, the soldier's eyes lit up even more, and a boatload of food was loaded, and there must be something delicious in it. So he said, "Okay, come here!" β
The servants immediately sped up, and by the way, the more than twenty elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom who came with them hid in the innermost. Then the rest of the twenty or so servant soldiers slowly came to the river, and then happily went ashore.
At this time, the captain of the squad stationed at this beacon tower also came to the riverside, watched more than 20 villagers get off the boat, and immediately stepped forward and asked, "What are you all pulling?" β
"Hehe, sir, we have collected all the meat in our village, including chicken, duck, fish, beef and mutton. Oh yes, and some wine! A servant barn captain said with a smile.
When the captain heard that there was wine in the ship, his heart was overjoyed. Now I stay by the river every day in the winter, and I am dying of cold. Then he hurriedly said, "Quick, unload some of the things from the ship, so that the brethren can taste them!" β
"Hey, sir, that's good. You go to rest first, and we'll move! β
"Uh-huh!"
Soon after, the soldiers of the Beacon Tower, who never set on the sun, fell asleep soon under the double greeting of wine and meat. Immediately afterwards, one by one, the elite soldiers of the Xia Kingdom immediately ran down from the ship and went straight to the beacon tower. First of all, after a few soldiers entered the beacon tower, they didn't care about the dozen or so people who were drunk inside, and rushed directly to the second floor. After seeing the three soldiers on the top of the beacon tower drunk, the soldiers of the Xia Kingdom immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Then the blade slashed lightly across their necks.
The dozen or so people below did not escape the fate of death at all, and their lives were ended in their sleep.
Subsequently, a torch appeared on the top floor of the beacon. And not far away, on the east and west beacons, torches also appeared.
