516 Infiltrate the enemy camp

Oni don't need to hold their breath, and diving in the water is as easy as walking on land. But unlike the river, the undercurrent under the water is very fast, mixed with cold yin. Ordinary ghosts may be swept away by the undercurrent, and only veterans like the water demon dare to dive into the Stygian Sea.

However, the water demon alone could not do this great thing, so I asked it to train fifty sailors who could dive within three days.

"Hong Kong lord, are you going to ......," the water demon asked hesitantly.

I nodded and said, "Since it is clear that we can't defeat the Yin Army, then we will come to Yin!" ”

Sandao was also born as a dry water thief, and his eyes immediately lit up: "Sneak attack on Hekou Town again?" ”

"Well, go again!" I said, "However, this time there is no need to make a big fanfare, quietly enter the village, don't shoot!" ”

The iron head was stunned and asked, "What are you talking about?" ”

I laughed, patted it on the shoulder, and said, "You go too, you can't do this without you!" ”

Three days later, ten small speedboats set out from the harbor of the Styx, and without even the ghost fire lanterns, they bypassed the many reefs with the ability of the ghost sailors to see in the dark, and quietly reached the outside of the estuary.

After suffering a loss, the Yin army stationed in Hekou Town will definitely send people to send ships to patrol the perimeter of the port. However, these bright and dark sentinels are all yin cultivation, and they can't see anything on the sea without a little light. So, our speedboat was careful to stop at the bottom of a cliff about five miles from the harbor.

From there, the ten speedboats split into two more and moved separately. The water demon dives into the water with fifty sailors with excellent water skills, and wants to dive all the way to the harbor of Estuary Town. If these five miles of land are used to walk naturally, it is easy to change to diving in the water, especially diving such a long distance in the Stygian Sea, the difficulty is not ordinarily high!

I took the remaining thirty sailors, and drove all ten speedboats, and likewise ventured around the Stygian Sea to approach the town of Bayou from the other direction. The speedboat was light and small, suitable only for navigating rivers and near-shore waters, and only the most skilled veteran sailors dared to sail it into the Stygian Sea.

The reason for the large circle is that most of the sentinels in Estuary Town are arranged on one side of the port area, and on the other side, because of its back to the cave wall, only some regular sentry posts are arranged. I left ten sailors to steer the boat, and I climbed the cave wall with twenty sailors myself, and crept into the town of Bayou from behind.

The first thing we encountered was a lighthouse from which a dim green light shone on the sea. The lighthouse is usually used more for navigation, but it must have been manned at this time, and it will also monitor the sea to prevent ships from attacking.

We, the uninvited guests, bypassed the range of the green light, disembarked from the boat, and climbed all the way from the bottom of the cave wall. Sandao's eyesight is not bad, and he can see the number of guards on the other side of the lighthouse at once.

"Two above, three below, and maybe more in the tower." It said.

I said to Sandao: "The lighthouse is relatively open underneath, and there are not too many people to hide. You take the archers to the top of the cave wall and aim at the two guards on the tower from the side, and I and Iron Head and a few men will touch over and deal with the three under the tower. As soon as you release the arrow, we will do it! ”

"Good!"

With five or six sailors like Iron Chief, I sneaked up behind a large rock closest to the lighthouse, which was only twenty meters away. At this time, it was already the hour of the year, and it was the time when the living felt the most sleepy, and the three soldiers of the Yin Army under the lighthouse took turns yawning one by one.

It stands to reason that stationing such an important lighthouse requires at least one Shi troops, and there should also be a Shi commander to lead the team. But according to what I have seen so far, not only is the Yin army too few troops, but the discipline is also very lax. It is estimated that the elite troops are all on the port area, and the only ones sent as sentries are some old fritter soldiers from the baggage battalion, which is convenient for us.

"Whoosh! Sou! ”

After two soft sounds, there were two muffled grunts and the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground from the top of the lighthouse. I hid behind the big rocks and saw that two arrows from the cliff had pierced the temples of the two sentries on the lighthouse, so that they collapsed to the ground before they could scream. These two arrows are really beautiful!

But only one of the three sentries under the lighthouse heard it, and he looked up, pushed his companion next to him, and asked, "Hey, there seems to be a sound up there?" ”

The two companions were dozing off, and replied impatiently, "What's the sound?" The sea breeze is so strong that I can hear the sound of 'whirring'. Rest assured, if there are really enemy ships coming at sea, they will ring the bell! ”

"Is it that the people above are also asleep, do you want me to go up and have a look?" The first place is quite responsible.

"Oh, you're fooling around, too! Shi Chang is lying in the tower, and he will go to see if there is any movement! ”

With just a few words, the Iron Head and the other ghost soldiers suddenly jumped out from behind the big rock and rushed in front of them while the attention of the three Yin Army sentries was on the tower.

"Humph!"

"Hmm!"

"Ugh!"

The three of them also didn't have time to shout, and they were successfully attacked by me and the Iron Head. We covered each one of them in the mouth and stabbed them to death.

I looked inside the lighthouse and saw a spiral of stairs. Judging by the height, in addition to the tower, there should be a second layer in the middle. So I said to the iron head: "There should be people on the second floor, you go in from above, I will enter from below, up and down, pay attention to keep quiet." ”

"Yes!"

Iron Head floated silently up the lighthouse with two ghost sailors, and I went straight up the stairs with two other sailors. Sure enough, on the second floor of the lighthouse, there were five Yin Army soldiers lying horizontally, all of whom were still asleep.

I pointed to one of the Yin soldiers with a waist tag on his body and said, "Except for him, there is no one left!" ”

Iron Head and several other sailors did the same, and after a few muffled snorts in a row, these veteran oilers all lost their lives in their sleep. The chief who had been named by me to save his life was finally awakened, but the first thing he found when he woke up was that he had been held by several knives around his neck, and there were several fierce ghost soldiers standing in front of him.

"Don't kill me! Don't kill me! The chief begged for mercy in trepidation. He shuddered, but was amusefully not immediately yelled.

I squatted down, looked at him coldly and said, "If we don't want to kill you, it's up to you to behave!" ”

The chief immediately understood what I meant, and nodded hurriedly and replied, "Whatever you want to ask, I will say!" ”

"First of all, tell me which army and which battalion you belong to!"

"I am the commander of the sixth battalion of the Left Army at night, and the rate belongs to General Shen Turen."

"Shen Turen?" I sneered, "Shen Turen is also a Yin General now?" Or did it depend on his uncle's ability? ”

Nashi swallowed his saliva, and didn't dare to refute, so he could only laugh and say, "Yes, it should be......"

When I was in the underworld, Shen Turen worked with me in the Yin School under Gan Sheng, and at that time he was in charge of the dog cavalry camp of the Night Touring Army. He was brave enough to fight, but he lacked a root in his head, and the number of mistakes he made and the number of meritorious services were always offset by this, and he was not promoted for a long time. However, he is the nephew of Marshal Night Tour, and he has survived all these years, and it is his turn to take the throne.

No wonder the military discipline of these Yin Army soldiers is so slack, Shen Turen has always been too lazy to discipline his soldiers when he was a Yin Colonel, and the military discipline is lax. Now that he is a yin general, he is naturally not much better. The chief in front of me is also a baggage battalion under Shen Turen, and he is the oil of the oil, so it is not surprising that the whole army was wiped out in his sleep tonight.

"Aside from you, where else is there a sentry nearby?" I didn't come this time to catch up, and I quickly turned to business.

Nashi Chang didn't dare to hide it, and explained the location of the sentry on this side of Hekou Town one by one. As I expected, the Yin army did not pay enough attention to this side of the cliff, and the main sentry posts were arranged on the port side. From this lighthouse, there are only two sentry posts within 300 meters of the surrounding area, one at the entrance to the market area and one at the entrance to the workshop area. A little farther away, around the barracks and the mayor's house, there were more sentry posts.

"Is there still work in the workshop area?" I asked.

"Nope." Shi Chang shook his head, "The equipment of the Yin Army is already very complete, and there is no shortage of weapons in all of our baggage camps for the time being. Even those large siege engines were transported by cargo ship from Waterfall City, and it is said that they will arrive in a few days! ”

"Oh, then Marshal Night Tour is going to prepare to storm the Harbor?"

"Well, my guess might be that. But my rank is too low, and it is impossible for my superiors to tell me in advance about this kind of battle plan. ”

I nodded, seeing that he didn't look like he was lying. However, even the large siege equipment was transported directly from the Giant Waterfall City, and I am afraid that the Marshal Yeyou had made up his mind from the beginning to focus on land routes, take advantage of the combat strength of the Yin army to launch a strong attack, and then rely on siege weapons to break through the defense of the city gate. This is the offensive method that the Yin Army is best at.

Then I asked a few more detailed questions, and the chief answered everything he knew honestly. When Sandao saw that I had finished asking, he made a throat-slitting gesture and asked for my opinion.

Unexpectedly, this action was seen by Nashi Chang, and he immediately knelt down and begged for mercy, with a handful of snot and tears.

I still didn't kill him in the end, first, I didn't bother to kill dirty hands like this veteran oilman; The second is to keep him in a wreck, which can lower the combat effectiveness of the Yin Army. So I spared his life, and threw him into the lighthouse when he was bound up strongly.

But before leaving, I took off his Yin Army uniform and armor and put it on my body. In addition, I also took off the uniforms of the nine Yin Army soldiers who died, and I also took off the iron head and the three knives, intending to disguise themselves as patrol squads and brazenly approach the next sentry.
