Chapter 85: Night Attack (2nd Watch)
When Lin Ran turned to look at her, she turned her head forward again, pretending to be looking at the road seriously. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Lin Ran was curious, rode to Yuehua's side, and said, "Village Chief Yuehua, don't you have something to say to Lin?" ”
Yuehua shook her head, but patted the horse she was riding with a smile, and said: "Xiaobai Village Chief, this mount of mine was bought from your Xiaobai Village, and now the entire Yuzhang County has horses for sale in your Xiaobai Village, and your Xiaobai monopolizes all the horse markets in Yuzhang County, which can make many people red." ”
Lin Ran didn't know why Yuehua suddenly said this, and replied: "Our Xiaobai Village does not monopolize the market, and other villages also want to do horse business, so we will definitely not get in the way." As for whether it can be done, it still depends on one's own ability. However, I still thank Village Chief Yuehua for the reminder. ”
"Hehe, it's good that the village chief of Xiaobai Village remembers my words, and shoots the first bird." Yuehua didn't say anything, and rode to the front.
Lin Ran squinted his eyes, recalling Yuehua's words in his heart, not knowing what the other party was hinting at.
The number of troops in the three intermediate villages of Xiaobai Village, Yuehua Village, and Jiuge Village has reached 300 people, and along the way to Nanchang City, there are constantly troops from the player villages gathered over, with a total number of more than 3,000 people, which is mighty.
But when he arrived outside the city of Nanchang, Lin Ran saw what it means to be a vast sea of people, there are more than 2,000 primary villages and more than 10 intermediate villages in the entire Yuzhang County, and a total of more than 10,000 villagers have been recruited.
Tens of thousands of dense players gathered outside Nanchang City, forming a dark sea of people, which brought a strong sense of shock to the hearts of everyone present.
"It's the first time I've seen so many players in action." Jiu Ge said with a smile, "There are so many people, no matter how powerful those hundreds of rebels are, they will be exhausted to death if they are cut down one by one, not to mention the army of the imperial court." ”
Lin Ran nodded and said, "Maybe we don't need to make a move this time, the imperial army just wants to show us this good show of suppressing the rebellion." ”
"Killing chickens and making an example of monkeys? It's kind of interesting. Jiu Ge bowed his head and said thoughtfully.
An NPC soldier dressed as a general rushed out of the city with a dozen soldiers, and summoned the village chief present.
There are more than 10,000 people present, so he naturally can't manage them one by one, and the easiest way is to command these people through the village chiefs of these players.
"I am the goalkeeper of the Duwei Mansion, Qi Xiu, and I am responsible for commanding the villages and villages. When attacking the Shanyue rebels, I will give you battle orders to the village chiefs, and I hope that the village chiefs will help you to suppress the rebellion for the imperial court as soon as possible. ”
The village chiefs present responded again and again, and the Yamen general Qi Xiu nodded with satisfaction, and issued his first order, all villages and townsmen bravely, and set off to the place of the Shanyue rebellion.
The boundary of Yuzhang County is distributed in an oval shape as a whole, intersecting with Linjiang County of Poyang County of Yangzhou in the east, bordering Luling County in the south, and the south of Jingzhou under the control of Liu Biao in the west, located in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River, close to Poyang Lake. It occupies a very important position in the southern states.
The location of this Shanyue rebellion was in the southern part of Yuzhang County. In fact, at the beginning, this group of rebels did not rebel in Yuzhang County, but came from Luling County, which is south of Yuzhang County.
Later, he wandered to Yuzhang County, and fought with the captain of Yuzhang County, and the unprepared captain of Hushan Yue was defeated and killed, which provoked the anger of the captain of Yuzhang County and sent troops to exterminate.
An army of more than 10,000 players marched to the south to act as the vanguard of the government army, clearing some small obstacles along the way for the government army, and a small group of bandits, only when the main force of the rebels is really found, the government army behind the player will be dispatched to eliminate the rebels in one fell swoop.
After a day's walking, the player's army has approached the location of the Zhongyue rebels. It's just that now it's dark, and it's not good for the battle, so Zhonglang General Qi Xiu decided to camp in the nearby mountains and forests and rest for a night.
Kirch instructed the players to cut down a large amount of timber to build a simple wooden fence and set up some tents. Torches are set outside the fence, and a fire is set up inside the fence where the player rests to keep warm.
This was supposed to be the most frequent period of activity for wild beasts in the mountains, and at this moment the wild beasts in the nearby mountains and forests have disappeared one by one and disappeared without a trace, for fear of becoming game meat barbecued on the fire of the army.
However, after the wooden fence was built, Qi Xiu drove all the players out of the inside, let the players rest outside, and welcomed the imperial army and Sima Luzai from the other department into the camp tent.
The players outside were indignant, but they had no choice but to spend the night in the wild outside.
It's just that everyone didn't expect that their army of more than 12,000 people would encounter any danger, so intentionally or unintentionally, both players and NPCs relaxed their vigilance, and didn't even set up any sentry posts.
In the middle of the night, a player did not fall asleep, ran to the woods on the outskirts of the army, climbed a tall apricot tree, picked a few green apricots and tasted them.
At this moment, the grass under him suddenly moved, and he looked and scratched his head in confusion.
There was no wind just now, huh? Could it be that some monster is moving down there?
He looked down and gasped in horror.
In the grass under the trees, in the bushes, behind the trees, there was a large number of people, through the faint moonlight at night, he could clearly see that this group of rebels wearing animal skin pointed hats, upper body ****, showing bronze strong bulging muscles, holding copper weapons, is staring at the brightly lit wooden fence tent not far away, on the wrists, the silver collar on the ankles, exuding a solemn color under the clear light of the moonlight.
"There are definitely more than eight hundred people here, and there is definitely something wrong with the information that came back." The player thought to himself, and he didn't dare to move even more, and he didn't dare to make a sound to warn people not far away. In this way, those people are vigilant, and they will definitely be chopped to mince by the angry Shanyue rebels below.
Fortunately, the two armies are not yet at war, and he can still send messages to other players.
"There's an enemy sneak attack, hurry up! Inform everyone. He quickly sent it to everyone in his friends list, and it was late at night, everyone was asleep, but no one received the message and responded.
"Moved, they moved." The player saw that under the shrill wooden whistle of one of the Shanyue rebels in the lead, a group of at least 3,000 Shanyue rebels rushed to the government player coalition army resting in front.
