Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Blood Sprinkled in Mobei (Part II)
The camp here is considered an important forward position for the confrontation between the Shangbei Wilderness Army and the Great Zhou, and it is very well defended.
The caravan made its way through the desert and turned south to the main road, and as it approached the camp, it was already watched by a number of scouts. Fortunately, the camel at the head was tied with a flag symbolizing the Northern Privy Council, otherwise they would not even be able to approach the camp.
Usually there are special supplies in the army, but the materials are only food, weapons and armor, which is also the most useful thing to ensure the transportation of limited transportation capacity.
Although they are soldiers, they are human beings after all, and they still need a certain amount of pastime. Things like wine and spices don't appear in the delivery of supplies, so they can only be transported by merchants like them.
Although this does not make a lot of money, it has the advantage that as long as you bring it, you will definitely sell out. And most of the troops don't know how to bargain, after all, there are 100,000 soldiers in the barracks, and if you don't buy it, some people pay for it.
Tag often takes this path, and the identity of an official and businessman was obtained at a great cost. Secondly, he wants to make more friends with some officers in the Northern Wilderness Army, and in the future, he wants to go south and north, and there is no harm in knowing more of these people.
But now, Tag's plans have changed somewhat.
A knife was pressed against him, and Tag felt a pang of fear as he remembered what had happened to Fang Cai. He was still sensible and didn't make any wrong decisions.
Many people in the caravan saw the wolf hunters suddenly come out and drew their knives. Most of the people who can walk the caravan have some martial arts on them. Anything can happen on the road, and with a skill, there will always be an extra chance of survival.
It's just that the martial arts of these people are obviously not enough in front of the wolf hunters. Lao Luo seems to have kind eyes, but he must have shown no mercy in his hands, and several people who dared to kill were all killed.
The corpses frightened several merchants, and they naturally did everything they could to Lao Luo's conditions.
In front of the barracks, the military officials carefully examined the Tag papers, which were stamped with the coat of arms of the Northern Privy Council. There was no problem with the whole paperwork, and the little clerk turned over the goods in the caravan, opened the tightly sealed oak barrels, and an intoxicating aroma of wine wafted in front of him.
The little official tasted it with his fingers, smashed his mouth a few times with satisfaction, and said, "Okay, you guys come in with something." ”
Tag politely secretly sent a pot of wine to the little official's hand, the little official shook it a few times, nodded with a smile: "Since the start of the war, no official or businessman has been here, you can sell it here for a good price!" ”
The small official led the way in front, and the caravan slowly entered the camp.
Such a military camp should have been built in an open place around it, but the wind and sand in the north of the desert were large, so the military camp was built on the mountain. There is a high dirt mountain on the back to shelter the wind and dust from the north.
The 100,000 iron cavalry was divided into two armies, the left and right, with the Chinese army commander's tent as the center of the guard. These riders are quick and agile, and if they make any decisions, they are able to execute them more quickly.
"Don't look around!" The little official said in warning.
He led the caravan to a fence, where there were few military tents, and behind the fence there were many cattle and sheep, which were probably also raised by the army. Several soldiers of the Northern Wilderness were raising fodder, and the cries of sheep and cattle were mixed together, one after another.
All the Wolf Hunters wore thick felt hats, their faces were camouflaged, their heads were bowed, and their eyes were staring around without a trace.
"It's right here, I'll inform the general later, you guys are waiting here!"
After the little official finished speaking, he left, and naturally someone looked at them. The surrounding area next to the fence has been surrounded by iron-clad Northern Wilderness armor soldiers, and once anyone dares to move, they will not be spared.
With no one around, Tag turned his head and cautiously said to Lao Luo, "You don't want to do it here, do you?" Listen to my advice, you people won't last long. This time, I admit it, and the amount of money I earn will be yours, as long as the strong man lets me return to the imperial capital safely. ”
Lao Luo quietly put the knife in his sleeve against Tag's back: "You'd better be honest, what we're going to do, you don't need to know." ”
Tag closed his eyes and muttered, "If you dare to take such a big risk to come here, you must have a special mission. Kill me and let them find out, a price you will not be willing to bear. You're not going to kill me. ”
Lao Luo smiled and leaned into Tag's ear: "Anyway, it's all death, if your actions are exposed, do you say I will kill you." Be honest and do whatever you want. ”
The little official hurriedly came, and he was followed by a Yujia (a staff officer of the Northern Wilderness Army).
Behind them was a group of sergeants in armor, who violently pushed away the crowd next to the camels and opened the barrels for inspection.
Tag explained to Lao Luo: "These are the general's subordinates, and the good things are left for the generals to choose first, and then sold to other sergeants. ”
In addition to wine, spices and medicinal herbs, there are also some musical instruments and other pastimes. Yujia found a few bottles of good wine, and ordered the sergeant behind him to carry it away. Although he is in the army, he still knows the rules. After calling Tag and asking for the price, the little official counted the money and gave it to Tag.
"You wait here, and someone will come in a moment." The little official reminded and left with Yujia.
After Yujia left, a few more people came after a while, all of them were the generals' subordinates in various camps. They picked back and forth from the goods, and although they didn't take much, they were all the best in them.
At this moment, the sky is getting darker.
This is the time that Lao Luo has already chosen, just wait for them to enter the barracks, and the sky outside will be cloudy.
A few more generals came, and Tang Yun and them squatted on the ground to maintain their best physical strength. They looked at the people with their eyes, and they could easily tell who they were from the armor on their bodies.
The system in the Northern Wilderness Army is strict, and there will be grades on the armor. Like these generals, most of the armor on their bodies is jet black, and there are Pixiu bite rings on both sides, and some even wear bulky chain mail. They are generally royal court cavalry, and their rank is relatively low.
Tang Yun pushed Lao Luo's arm and whispered, "It's here!" ”
There was a rustling sound in the darkness, and several sergeants who had been watching them dodged away, and under the light of the torches, several generals came out in bright golden armor.
The armor of these people is carved with hideous wolf heads.
The wolf is a sacred creature for the people of the Northern Wilderness, and they are in awe from the bottom of their hearts. The wolf logo is not something that anyone can keep on their body, and only certain people can get it.
They are the protectors of the Northern Wilderness Imperial Family, and only they are qualified to carve wolf heads on their armor.
Walking past the envious gaze of the nearby sergeant, several guards walked up to the caravan, still calmly selecting. This time it was Lao Luo who came to receive him.
Lao Luo was very eager, he introduced wine to several guards, and then picked up a flute and played the oldest song in the Northern Wilderness, "Wolf Original Song". This deepened the impression of several guards on Lao Luo, and they left with a smile on their wine, and told Lao Luo to bring more things from the imperial capital next time.
Send these people away, and the next step is the trafficking of ordinary soldiers. The rest were not expensive liquor, which was also sold exclusively to ordinary sergeants. After a while, many soldiers rushed over. It is rare for the army to have such an opportunity to buy, and everyone wants to take a sip of the fine wine from the imperial capital.
The merchants began to greet them, and the area was already full of people. Lao Luo gave a few people around him a look, and took advantage of the darkness to quietly leave behind the camel.
There were a total of fifty wolf hunters, and ten of them left quietly without attracting anyone's attention.
"The commander's camp of the Northern Wilderness Commander Helian Movement is in the middle, and if you see that the wolf flag, let's go in the direction of the wolf flag."
Lao Luo said as he strangled the neck of the Northern Wilderness sergeant with his hand, and the sergeant struggled for a moment, and then his body went limp.
Tang Yun and the others also strangled a Northern Wilderness sergeant in their hands, and they were skilled.
"Shan Yi went to Liangzhou to ask for help, and after he succeeded, the Liangzhou army will send someone to meet us. As long as we take down the head of Helian Movement, we don't have to worry about the glory and wealth of this life. ”
Night, just shrouded in the sky.
Lao Luo and the others were sticking to the tent, they had already changed into the clothes of the Northern Wilderness Army, and sneaked quietly in the dark, without alarming anyone.
Several people stopped in front of the Chinese army camp.
The people of the Northern Wilderness made very strict preparations, and the entire Chinese army battalion was very tightly defended and almost invulnerable.
Lao Luo and the others leaned on the edge of the checkpoint, and they leaned against a tent, as if they were resting. They were all wearing the military uniforms of the Northern Wilderness, and many people were already resting in such a dark night, so naturally no one paid attention to them.
Lao Luo counted with his fingers.
There were ten people in total.
Being able to quit is secondary, as long as you can kill Helian Le, the brother who gets out alive is considered to be a winner. Every year, I make incense, and I have more of my own incense.
"Tang Yun boy, you shouldn't have come in." Lao Luo glanced at Tang Yun.
Tang Yun didn't answer him, and several people kept watching the surroundings.
Lao Luo counted until the third watch, until Bangbang's voice came out, and ten people opened their eyes at the same time.
Boom!
A loud noise came from outside the camp, and someone shouted: "The Zhou army has broken into the camp!" The whole camp was in chaos, the officers shouted to wake up the sleeping soldiers, and groups of sergeants took up their weapons and went out of their tents.
"Drive!"
There was a team of escort iron cavalry set off from the Chinese army camp, and the checkpoint quickly moved the blocked horses away.
When the iron horse left, the ten men suddenly found a few fast horses and flew up.
Sneak attack, it's impossible.
Ten people had just circled around the Chinese army camp for half a circle, and each place was mixed with open and dark posts, and there was no place to sneak in.
I had no choice but to bite the bullet.
Countless iron horsemen rushed to open and close the card, and rushed to the outside of the camp.
The iron horse left, and the sergeant at the checkpoint did not close the rejection horse immediately.
Lao Luo, Tang Yun and the other ten people quickly stepped on the war horses that they had already found, and went straight to the camp in the direction of the wolf banner.
"There's an urgent report to the Grand Commander, get out of the way!" Lao Luo shouted loudly in the Northern Wilderness.
In such a dark night, no one had time to distinguish the true identities of Lao Luo and the others.
Ten people, straight to the wolf's golden horde.
Tang Yun's heart was pounding, and his right hand was quietly held on the hilt of the knife.
"Great Commander, there is a battle report!" Lao Luo stopped his horse and rushed towards the Golden Horde.
In front of the Golden Horde, there were several guards guarding it, but when they saw Lao Luo's posture, they thought it was a messenger who came to report, so they didn't stop it. When they got closer, they suddenly felt that something was not right.
Tang Yun and the others had already dismounted, and the long knife came out of its sheath and stabbed straight into the hearts of several guards.
Lao Luo uncovered the tent.
Sou!
A sharp arrow rushed out of it directly and nailed it to Lao Luo's body.
Lao Luo's eyes looked straight into the golden tent.
Here, no one!
Intelligence mistakes, Helian Movement is not in the manager's Golden Horde!
Whoosh!
Countless sharp arrows rushed forward and hit Lao Luo's body directly, and the blood suddenly sprayed out and splashed on the ground.
