Chapter Eighty-Five: Infiltrating the Enemy Camp

If you want to blend into the barracks, you must first blend in with the grain transport team.

Finally, when the sun was about to set in the west in the afternoon, a long line of grain was slowly moving towards the enemy cavalry battalion.

Lieutenant Colonel Shisu touched the end of the grain transport team and quietly followed the team for a while.

When the team turned a corner, it immediately and decisively took out the last ant soldier (porter) who carried the grain and grass - breaking his neck.

Then, come up with a plan of "stealing beams and changing pillars" to carry grain and grass instead of this unlucky ant soldier.

It didn't take long for Lieutenant Colonel Shisu to blend into the enemy cavalry battalion and enter the warehouse where grain and grass were stacked.

It found that the grain depot was very large and that it was not difficult to get out, so it hid in the warehouse while it was unprepared, and waited until it was dark to get out.

Generally speaking, ants do not use fire like humans, and do not have lighting objects such as electric lights.

Therefore, it is almost pitch black here in the grain depot at night, and only occasionally the moonlight shines down, and something can be faintly seen.

Lieutenant Colonel Shiso slowly figured out the warehouse and came outside.

When passing by the collective dormitory of the enemy ant barracks, I heard a sound of snoring, indicating that the enemy ants were sleeping soundly.

Suddenly, it heard a sound of footsteps coming from far and near in front of it, and hurriedly hid on the spot.

After a while, a group of night patrol ants walked past him in unison.

After the patrol passed, it continued to look for something useful.

Soon it was discovered that the flea horse pen (it should be called the flea pen) heavily guarded by the enemy army, this place for fleas was very large, enough to keep hundreds of fleas in captivity.

However, there are many soldiers guarding the outside day and night, and there are patrols patrolling back and forth, and these fleas are really guarded as treasures.

It seems that it is almost impossible to get these fleas.

So can you get a way to raise and train fleas, and then go out into the wild to catch some fleas to raise and train?

yes, that's a good idea. But how do you get these methods?

Shisu thought: I might as well hide near this flea circle and see who will serve this group of fleas.

After midnight, a group of ant porters came with a large pile of fleas' favorite food and grass, and they were going to give the fleas a supper.

As the saying goes: horses have no night grass and no fertilizer. This flea also likes to eat night grass just like horses!

Shiso thought: When they come back after feeding the fleas, I will follow them and grab a flea groom (or flea man) to ask.

See if it knows how to raise and train fleas, especially how to make fleas obedient.

After a while, the flea men poured the fodder into the flea rings and arranged it evenly before leaving.

Shiso quietly followed, and in a remote corner, knocked the last flea man unconscious without a sound.

Then, sneaking back to the innermost corner of the warehouse with it on his back, he woke it up and began to interrogate.

"You give me the land to listen honestly, and you are not allowed to shout and speak loudly to work." Lieutenant Colonel Shisu waved his tentacles and said, "Whatever I ask you, you will answer it, and you are not allowed to lie." Disobediently, dead and dead. ”

The flea man was suddenly frightened, and the ant urine also flowed out, just like the toad urine that was scared when he didn't have to run, and stammered with his tentacles: "Taijun spares his life, I say, I say everything." ”

"Say, where did you get the fleas here?" Lieutenant Colonel Shisu waved his tentacles and asked, "How did you make these fleas work so obediently?" ”

"Taijun, this group of fleas is our land leader, that genius land commander Prostate Dazuo, sent someone to catch it from the group of 100,000 mountains in the west." The flea man danced his tentacles and said tremblingly, "Then put it in a newly built flea training base in the mountains for training, and then pull it here after the training is mature." ”

"And how does cavalry training work?"

"I heard that two senior cavalry instructors were invited from Kyoto Imperial University to train them."

"Where did you get the guns and sticks for the cavalry?"

"Well, I've heard that the most intelligent and capable expedition of the Imperial Empire stole it from a place where giants live far away from the mountains, and stole a lot."

"Do you know where to put it?" Shiso asked, waving her tentacles.

"I don't know! Taijun, I really don't know about this. Because we don't have access to those things, maybe the cavalry know. That's probably all I know. The flea man said busily dancing his tentacles.

Shisu saw that this flea man was not very good at speaking the language of the Wo Lan Ant Clan, but he could only understand it, and it was estimated that he was also a minority ant tribe (a minority of the Wo Ant Clan) who was captured by the Wo Lan ant colony from a remote area to serve hard labor.

Seeing that Shisu was about to stun or kill himself, the flea man was scared again, and hurriedly danced his tentacles and said, "Taijun spare my life, I know where that flea training base is." As long as you show mercy, I am willing to take you there. ”

Shisu put down his hand that was about to stun it, waved his tentacles, and said, "Then you also know where to get out of this barracks safely." The flea man thought for a moment, danced his tentacles, and said, "I know." Taijun, please come with me. ”

In this way, Lieutenant Colonel Shisu followed the flea man and turned left and right to avoid the enemy's sentry posts and patrols, and finally crawled out of the enemy flea cavalry battalion through a winding ditch.

Then, it took the flea man to meet up with his men who were meeting him outside the enemy barracks, and after resting for a while, he immediately let the flea man lead the way towards the flea training base deep in the mountains.

They climbed mountain after mountain and traveled for days.

Finally, after crossing the last mountain, I saw a large plain at the foot of the mountain in the distance, and on the plain I found a large group of fleas jumping incessantly, some of them trained to be decent, and some of them were still jumping around unruly.

Could this be the flea training base? Lieutenant Colonel Shiso thought, what method do they use to train fleas?
