Seeing that the Tang army was in disarray in the midst of his own suicide attack and was forced to camp hastily, Hattori Shozaemon was ecstatic.

What surprised him was not only that the actual distance of the Tang army today was not even ten miles, but also that the place where the Tang army was forced to camp also hid many short tunnels dug in advance.

Judging from Tang Jun's performance just now, the other party was not prepared for this kind of "retreat technique" unique to the scouts of the island country, and was at a loss.

Therefore, Hattori, who was immersed in joy, was already considering whether to carry out another round of attacks on the Tang army in the dead of night.

However, after much deliberation, Hattori Shozaemon gave up on this tempting idea.

The so-called "retreat technique" is essentially nothing more than a trick to use the tunnel.

The first use did cause heavy losses to the Tang people, and there was a huge panic, but it was difficult not to be discovered by the Tang army after using it too much, not to mention that with the scale of the Tang army, it was impossible to kill all the Tang troops in one raid.

Judging from the fact that the Tang army immediately chose to camp instead of using troops at will after suffering losses, Hattori believed that the generals of the Tang people were not mediocre, and a little inspection of the remains of the battle could easily discover the tunnels of these actual combat "escape techniques", and it would no longer be possible to block the Tang army's attack with this move.

Of course, not being able to carry out a sneak attack does not mean that a small number of scouts cannot be sent to reconnoiter through the tunnels.

As a result, as soon as a small number of scouts lurked in the camp entered the camp, teams of heavily armed Tang army patrols armed with torches appeared around, frightening these infiltrators and not daring to move.

Taking advantage of the short space where the patrol's footsteps disappeared, they honestly shrank back, but they didn't know that their departure made the soldiers of the Changying Army who had been waiting for them for a long time very regretful.

You must know that the Changying Army has always been a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, especially among the auxiliary soldiers, reconnaissance battalions, engineer battalions, and cooking classes, all of which are capable people, and strange people are not uncommon.

There are not only Tan Mingming, a torture master who can interrogate the Tubo people who regrets being born, but also Lan Miao, a master who can reverse the principle of the steam engine.

There are not only the heirs of the Mo family who can study the ships going to sea, but also the Taoist priests who go into battle as military doctors to carry knives and behead people, and the cooking soldiers who take cooking as their main job and chop people as a pastime.

Naturally, there will be no shortage of guys who are good at "retreating from the ground", such as He Mang, the captain of the engineer battalion who is said to belong to the captain of the gold school.

In He Mang's own words, the tomb of this dynasty does not dare to move casually, if it moves, it will be wiped out, and the tomb of Boss Cao cannot be moved, which is called self-theft by the guards, except for these two forbidden areas, there is no place in the whole world that they can't go.

For them, going to Bishan is no different from going back to their own home, when they are short of money, they go to Bishan for a walk, which is enough to be happy and happy, and even the fast officials of Chang'an, Wannian, and Jing Zhaoyin are fed.

It's just that He Mang never dreamed that he would meet such a freak as Guo Rong who played his cards unreasonably.

The official who had already been fed directly locked him up and sent him to the Changying Army barracks in the Forbidden Garden, and then He Mang became one of the special recruits of the Changying Army Engineer Battalion.

After all, in a sense, every tomb robber in this era is an excellent civil engineer, how could Guo Rong, this kind of talent, be easily let go.

However, he was suddenly sent to the barracks by the servants, and it became a special trick of Raushzi, originally He Mang was dissatisfied, but the instinct of touching Captain Jin still made him prefer to use his brain.

After carefully studying the companions around him, He Mang found that there were either strong men (recruits) who were more than six feet tall, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, eager to try, and whose arms were thicker than his waist......

Either it is a veteran oil (instructor) who has been on the battlefield for several years, more than ten years, or even decades......

The few remaining aliens also belong to the resentful species that have been twisted over through some abnormal channels, and some of them look quite familiar (special moves)......

After thinking about it carefully, He Mang determined that in such a group of recruits, veterans, and unlucky grievances around him, he had neither the courage nor the opportunity, otherwise he would have smeared oil on the soles of his feet.

It wasn't until he was persuaded by Guo Rong that He Mang was honest, a person who dared to lead troops directly to the sixth school of Guozijian, and directly robbed people in front of Guozijian Confucianism and literary leaders, and he couldn't afford to provoke people who were unscathed after the key robbery.

Simply, He Mang later found that in the Changying Army, as long as they abide by the military regulations, they are actually comfortable, and more importantly, the long-term physical training has alleviated the tuberculosis inherited by their family.

At the most critical moment of the Battle of Jingzhou, watching one comrade after another die in battle, He Mang, who was red-eyed, relied on his short stature and flexible dagger to secretly calculate at least thirty Tubo armor soldiers in the chaotic army.

In the four years of the Changying Army, the former Touching Gold Captain He Mang has become a grandmaster-level figure in civil engineering and boat bridges, in his words, now he can come and go freely and unimpeded in all the emperor's tombs, but now he is the Tang Dynasty Forbidden Army, and he is not the same as stealing graves and digging graves.

In fact, although Chai Lao Dao Qingxuzi helped Lu Xiaobing prepare a large number of black powder raw materials, but black powder is only black powder and not TNT after all, in fact, even if Xiao Junpeng really has a few thousand catties of TNT If the placement is not reasonable enough, it will not achieve the effect of the east wind blooming that Lu Xiaobing wants, and to maximize the power of the limited black powder, it requires the mutual cooperation of He Mang, a civil engineer, and Xiao Junpeng, a gunpowder master.

Therefore, for the real sappers in the civil engineering direction of He Mang and the Changying Army, the tunnels that the Japanese scouts are proud of are really not enough, and the so-called "retreat technique" of Hattori Shozaemon is not an ordinary shabby.

With He Mang's professional analysis, Lu Xiaobing can be said to be in his hands for the scouts of the island country, so Lu Xiaobing specially arranged three war battalions to take turns to rest and patrol to prevent possible night attacks by the Japanese people.

The reason why Lu Xiaobing chose to scare away instead of making a move has only one purpose, that is, to continue to lure the enemy in reverse.

After listening to the report of the scouts lurking in, the Tang army was heavily guarded, a cold sweat broke out in the hattori, he realized that he was not hot-headed, otherwise according to the defense situation of the Tang army, at least how much would he die if he went in.

Of course, after the rejoicing, Hattori also confirmed that the Tang people did not seem to have discovered the secret of the "retreat technique", which couldn't help but make Hattori Shozaemon think about it, a seemingly extreme, seemingly bold, and gambling plan has gradually formed in Hattori's mind.

After careful consideration, Hattori chose to let a small number of subordinates try to harass the Tang Army commander to a small extent, so as to confuse the public and affect the judgment of the Tang Army commander.

As for the large number of scouts, they were sent out to dig pits without restriction near possible official roads.

Hattori Shozaemon has already thought that as long as the Tang Army dares to leave the camp tomorrow, he will bring a big surprise to the Tang Army, and this surprise will definitely make the Tang Army feel painful.

Hiding alone on the side of the mound outside the promised by the Tang Army, fantasizing about the tragic situation of the Tang Army tomorrow, Hattori almost laughed out loud.

At a certain moment, he even felt that he should be a little merciful, in case he was too ruthless and scared away these Tang troops who didn't even dare to leave the camp gate, it would not be good to be punished by General Sakagami and Prince Genyasu.

Or after capturing the commander of the Tang Dynasty, put on his own set of majestic armor and have a "one-horse discussion" with the other party's commander, adding luster to his family name, and at the same time, it can be regarded as giving the commander of the Tang army a decent way to die.

That night, the main force of the Japanese scouts was digging holes desperately on the road that the Changying army must pass, and the main force of the Changying army was sleeping in the camp after a full meal.

A small number of Japanese scouts, under the command of the leader Hattori, launched a small-scale attack from time to time, while the three battalions of the Changying Army took turns patrolling, and then, under the command of Lu Xiaobing, repelled the attack of the Japanese with a rain of arrows.

Generally speaking, the two sides have not only fought their own battles, but also formed a unique tacit understanding, only the three battalions on duty are relatively dissatisfied, after all, they tossed most of the night, and by dawn they had not even seen the corpses of island people, and this battle achievement can only be said to have, but not much.

However, as the sky became brighter, after the Changying Army of the three war battalions went back to sleep under the leadership of Lu Xiaobing, the people who felt unhappy became Hattori Shozaemon who stayed up all night like Lu Xiaobing.

It's just that Lu Xiaobing has Meng Qian as his deputy, so he can go to rest and recuperate, but there is no such person around Hattori who can take his place.

Of course, not being able to rest is not the main reason for Hattori's upset.

As the sky became brighter, Hattori, who had not slept all night, hid behind the mounds on the flanks of the Changying Army's camp, preparing to wait for the Tang Army to pull out the camp and continue to move forward.

After all, in order to surprise the Tang Army, hundreds of Japanese scouts have been busy all night!

However, as the sky changed, the sun gradually hung in the sky, and after dawn, the auxiliaries of the Tang army camp, under the protection of the soldiers, went to the sow river a few miles away to get water, and at the same time the Tang army camp was flooded with cooking smoke, all of which seemed to be commonplace......

It's just that at this time, Hattori, who was preparing for a good show, vaguely felt a problem, and it seemed that the Tang Army did not plan to continue to march today.

Staying up from midnight to early morning, from early morning to noon, in the eyes of Hattori, in addition to strengthening defense, the Tang Army is strengthening patrols, but it has no idea of pulling out the camp and going to battle!

After confirming this, Hattori Shozaemon, whose eyes were red, felt a breath in his heart, and he almost didn't catch his breath.

From the moment they received the order to block the Tang Army, the hundreds of elite scouts under their command walked in the direction of Wendeng on their two small short legs.

After running wildly for a day and a night, he finally reached the battle line, and he didn't even have time to rest, and began to dig pits, dig holes, and lay traps in the ground desperately according to his own orders.

It's okay now, the Tang army directly stood still, and I knew that the Tang army wouldn't go out of the camp at all today, so I just let my own scouts have a good rest!

However, now the regret is over, considering that his sons from the island country are already quite tired from continuous running and labor, but the traps and surprises have been laid, and Hattori does not dare to let the scouts from the island country rest at will.

So, I stayed up until noon, until I saw the smoke rising again in the camp of the Tang Army, and Hattori Masaemon, who had not closed his eyes for two whole days, was stunned.

Tang Jun actually had three meals a day under his nose!

That's three meals a day, and only the lords, guardians, and ministers can enjoy it in the island country!

If you think about yourself, and all the island scouts you lead, you can only eat two meals a day, and you can't eat enough.

As for the fact that during the current mission, he could only rely on "thirst-quenching pills" and "soldier food pills" to resist hard in one day, and he only ate one "thirst-quenching pill" and three "soldier food pills" for two whole days.

"Eight Geya Road, damn Tang Jun turned out to be three meals a day!"

While scolding, Hattori pulled out a katana about the same height as his height of five feet and hit the ground with a crazy output.

The waist-high weeds around him were naturally no match for Hattori's part-time low-level samurai and katana, the scout leader, and under Hattori's frantic slashing, the weeds fell to the ground one after another.

While scolding, while slashing, until a certain moment, after finding that the weeds around him no longer exceeded his knees, looking at the remains of the weeds all over the ground, Hattori Shozaemon's face was with a satisfied smile, and the blood in his eyes faded slightly.

Climbing back to the edge of the mound and looking at the Tang army camp that had been covered with cooking smoke, Hattori ordered that a few people be left to monitor the Tang army, and the rest rested.

After receiving the order of Hattori, the hungry and thirsty, exhausted elite scouts took out a precious "soldier food pill" from their arms one by one and fell asleep.

Of course, Hattori, who hadn't slept for two whole days, fell into a dream directly on the meadow of the mound under the warm sun.

However, Hattori felt that he had just slept for two or three breaths at most, and he was immediately woken up.

Although he was very tired, although he was very angry when he got up, and although he wanted to take out his katana and hack this guy who woke him up, Hattori still suppressed his emotions and asked the most critical question.

"What's going on?"

"The Tang army is out of the camp!"

Hearing that the Tang army was out of the camp, Hattori felt that he was not sleepy all of a sudden, and with a leap, he turned over and returned to the observation position on the mound.

Sure enough, the Tang army's camp had opened its door, and more than a thousand Tang soldiers were sneakily leaving the camp and heading to the northeast, that is, in the direction of Wendeng County.

What's more important is that the more than 1,000 people who left the camp were all wearing heavy armor, and after leaving the camp, they were also cautious, turning back three times at a time, for fear that they would be attacked by thousands of troops after leaving the camp.

Looking at the time, it was just past noon, and I was afraid that I hadn't slept for half an hour.

Looking at the smoke in the camp that had not completely dispersed, Tang Jun had just finished his lunch at most, and it was obvious that he had just finished eating and ran out.

Leaving at this time, Hattori could deduce that the Tang Army sent these people to explore the way, but the time card was really a bit excessive.

The self who gave the order barely slept for less than half an hour, the problem is that it takes time for the order to be delivered, and the scouts under his command have just fallen asleep......

This damn time, this damn Tang Army, this damn caution, all this makes Hattori angry and has no way to vent, if you find a description to describe Hattori Shozaemon's mood, then this word can only be disgusting, extremely, very disgusting.

Seeing that the sneaky-looking foot soldiers of the Tang army were not close to the camp, Hattori had to order the scouts who had just fallen asleep to wake up.

After all, if the Don army could not discover the tunnels and traps, it was quite possible that they would try to advance......

After the order was given, Hattori beat his spirits and began to observe the movements of the Tang army again, and was ready to give orders at any time.

It's just that they didn't wait too long, the Tang army's foot soldiers were only three or four miles out of the camp, and they had just entered the periphery of the ambush area, more than a thousand people lined up in a tight line, and the Tang army's foot soldiers who were cautiously moving forward suddenly seemed to have a convulsion, suddenly lost their formation and square inches, and everyone rushed away in the direction of the camp without their lives.

Seeing this scene, Hattori was directly stunned, he couldn't understand what was going on at all.

That's more than a thousand armorers in heavy armor, even if they walk step by step, can anyone threaten them, what do they see?

This time, though, Hattori's doubts were quickly answered.

The problem is that this kind of heavy trap that will bring huge casualties should be placed in the middle of the preset ambush zone of Hattori, and be used in conjunction with the scouts lurking in the tunnels.

Hearing this answer that made him laugh and laugh, Hattori couldn't help but laugh, could it be that in just over a hundred years, the Tang Army has degraded from the Battle of Baijiangkou to the extent that it is now inferior to the ashigaru of the island country.

Looking back, the civil strife in the Tang Dynasty, the weakness after the rumored civil strife, Hattori suddenly felt that it was not strange to have such soldiers.

Originally, Hattori didn't think about whether the coach of the Tang people was deliberately calculating himself, but after thinking about too many things, Hattori ruled out this possibility.

Unless Tang Jun has spies in his scouts who can deliver news to Tang Jun at all times, it is impossible for Tang Jun to calculate his calculations to this extent, even if Amaterasu Okami and Yaqi Orochi come in vain, he Hattori Shozaemon said.

It's just that Hattori has just convinced himself that the scouts around him have come to his side, asking how the scouts who have just been awakened should fight.

Thinking of the subordinates who had been tossed dead and alive because of the cowardice of the Tang Army, looking at the Tang Army camp in the distance, Hattori couldn't help but scold angrily.

"Eight Geya Road, damn Tang Jun!"

The scouts of the island country have been tortured to death, and the Hattori Shozuo Guard has been burned with tossed anger, but the interior of the camp of the Changying Army is indeed a different scene.

In Hattori's eyes, the foot soldiers of the Changying Army fled in embarrassment like losing their armor, but in fact, the retreating team tightly protected the civil engineering elders including He Mang in the middle, and the entire team retreated scattered but not chaotic.

After the men and horses answered the battalion, He Mang rushed directly to Lu Xiaobing, who gave the reconnaissance order, with a few sappers who attacked.

"Commander, you guessed right, the front is indeed full of traps and tunnels for the Japanese people."
