Chapter 311: Please enter the urn and blow up the rat hole

Under the dark night sky, a crescent moon hung over the night sky, and the bright moonlight sprinkled the land, casting a silver veil over the vast field.

Under the moon, a large camp of the Tang Army with a radius of more than three miles was quietly immersed in the hazy moonlight.

In the camp, the lights were bright, rows of military tents were scattered, and groups of patrols with torches in their hands were constantly patrolling the camp.

The corridor in the center of the camp was wide and neat, and the flames of the torches in the hands of the patrolmen were extremely active in the wind, and the shadows brought by the firelight swayed between the military tents.

When the time passed, and when it came to Choushi, as a group of sturdy patrols walked by, a small hole suddenly flashed in the open space between the two military tents, and a hand stretched out from the gap, and then a short, emaciated, black-clad figure flashed out of the hole.

After flashing out of the hole, this short, emaciated figure cautiously looked around, and after making sure that the Tang army patrol had gone away, and there were no Tang troops around, he carefully put his ear on the nearby military tent, and the thunderous snoring instantly came into his ears.

After carefully confirming that the Tang troops in the surrounding military tents were all asleep, this short figure was obviously a little more relaxed.

Immediately afterwards, the short figure let out a strange insect chirp towards the hole that had just been hidden, and with the sound of insect chirping, one after another figures carrying various blades and dressed in black, blue, and gray clothes appeared, and crawled out of the hole with the assistance of their companions.

After leaving the hole, some are on guard, some are armed to observe their surroundings, and the rest are helping more companions to crawl out of the hole.

The whole process is not too fast, but these scouts from the island country cooperate extremely skillfully and tacitly, without any communication or making any sound, and the whole process is extremely smooth.

Suddenly, a voice representing vigilance came, and the scouts of the island country who were busy stopped their previous movements and quickly hid in the shadows.

Soon, a group of patrolmen armed with torches and stubborn clothes walked through the nearby corridor, and with the help of military tents and shadows, the patrolmen did not notice anything unusual.

As the patrol moved away, the island nation's scouts emerged from their hiding places and began to get busy again.

And the same scene appeared almost simultaneously in several corners of the camp.

In just a few dozen breaths, the number of island country scouts crawling out of the tunnels has increased from a few to dozens, but everything is still quiet, and the entire camp seems to have fallen asleep.

In the eyes of the scouts, everything was perfect, and the Tang people did not seem to be prepared for anything, and it was not and could not have been discovered that they had quietly infiltrated the camp.

It's just that the facts are going to disappoint the island scouts.

In the military tent next to their tunnel exit, the soldiers of the Changying Army were indeed asleep, but their chief and platoon commander were in good spirits and were carefully listening to the movements next to them.

Moreover, although these sleeping soldiers are asleep, they are all stubborn, wearing heavy armor, and holding long soldiers, and they only need to give an order from their own commander, and they can immediately turn into a deadly Shura.

At the gate of the main camp, a group of light infantry and crossbowmen in light armor, armed with wooden shields and horizontal swords, were waiting for the order to attack.

In the middle of the camp, in an open space similar to the school grounds, several huge fires were lit.

Next to each fire, there are a whole number of fully armed soldiers waiting for orders, and their task is to pass through the corridors of the camp as soon as possible and complete the blockade of every area of the camp.

In the middle of the clearing, a pitch-black iron barrel was placed, and next to the iron barrel, several gunpowder masters belonging to the engineer battalion were intently looking at the highest watchtower in the northeast corner of the camp.

At this moment, located in the northeast corner of the camp, on top of the tallest watchtower in the entire camp, several people are quietly looking at the seemingly calm, but actually undercurrent of the camp.

One of them was holding a clairglass sent to the regimental commanders, carefully observing the figures in the camp that appeared from the tunnels one by one, and kept sighing as he spoke.

"Meng Gan, don't say it, the quality of these guys is really good!"

"Just a few feet apart, our patrolmen really haven't discovered their existence, and it's no easier than lurking and hiding alone, no more than those awesome guys in our reconnaissance battalion."

"Lao Lu, can this be the same, the training of our scouts is a framework formulated by the general himself, and the emphasis is on all kinds of all-round, individual outstanding, and taking the route of one specialty and multiple abilities."

"Looking at these guys' ability to lurk and hide alone, it's really better than ordinary scouts, but it's really not a problem compared to the guys who specialize in training lurking and hiding."

"And you have to know that these island country scouts are all small people, and with their height like bean sprouts, it is much easier to find a random place to hide than our scouts."

"The light will hide a fart, no matter how well it is hidden, the ass is pouting, as long as it is discovered, don't you still have to find death?"

"These island scouts are true, but our scouts are not."

"How?"

"You don't know, I went to see them once when they were training before, and Li Erniu asked me to try to find out the hidden scout, do you know what the result is?"

"I don't know!"

"I walked around their training ground several times, but I didn't find any of them, but I was hiding six people within ten feet of me, one of them, I was standing in front of him, I didn't notice it, and when I suddenly stood up from in front of my eyes, I almost drew a knife and slashed over......"

When Meng Qian and Lu Xiaobing were discussing scouts and lurking on the watchtower, outside the camp, a scout of the Changying Army quietly touched the side of a Japanese scout.

took out the small hammer in his hand and smashed it on the back of the island country's neck, and with a gentle "Kacha" sound, the body of the Japanese scout lay on the ground softly.

After quietly killing the Wa scout, the scout of the Long Silk Army raised his hand and made a gesture of completion.

A few dozen breaths later, several scouts appeared.

"Chief, this should be the last sentry."

"Pang Quan, have you found the entrance of the rat hole?"

"Found it, it's over there!"

Shi Chang cautiously followed the direction of Pang Quan's finger, put his ear to the hole and listened for a moment, then waved his hand behind him after withdrawing, and soon several subordinates came to his side.

"Li Dahu, are the things arranged by Captain Xiao ready?"

Hearing the inquiry of his own chief, a scout named Li Dahu, but with a relatively short stature, gently stroked the big guy behind his back.

The core of the big guy is a jar filled with thirty catties of black powder with frosting, and the outside of the jar is a cotton bag wrapped around the outside of the jar to prevent the jar from directly shattering, but the interlayer of the bag is stuffed with black powder.

"Wait, get ready."

"I haven't forgotten what Captain Xiao taught!"

"Don't worry, what's long, I can't forget it, just light it and roll in the tunnel."

"That's okay, Hao Gang, send a signal and tell the regiment commander that the No. 5 rat hole is ready and ready to be moved."

After Shi Chang finished speaking, one of the scouts beside him took out a fire fold from his body, lit the torch that had been prepared a long time ago, and swayed it back and forth in the air for a few rounds according to three long and two short.

Soon, the flickering firelight that appeared in the field outside the camp was spotted by the Changying army on the watchtower.

"Regiment commander, all the Japanese secret posts outside the camp have been cleared, and the six rat holes pointed out by Captain He have all been discovered, and they are cleaned up and ready."

"Oh, so fast, how long has it been?"

"I'll just say it, as far as the behavior of the island people pouting and hiding with their buttocks, the value cannot be said to be nothing, it can only be said that it is almost the same as nothing."

"How? Do you want to wait any longer? Or do it now? ”

Lu Xiaobing took out his clairvoyant mirror and observed the location of several mouse holes again, and found that there were less than 100 island scouts drilled out of the holes, so he said.

"They're a little slower than we expected, wait a little longer, let the light infantry go out first, take their positions early."

"It's okay, anyway, the secret sentry of the island people has also been cleared, it's okay to go out for a while in advance, you will definitely not be able to run out of the mouse hole, and you will not be able to run away if you are still in the mouse hole, although I don't know how many island people are left to block us here, but if you can solve it here, try to solve it here, otherwise it will be too troublesome to let the cavalry catch people all over the mountains."

With the issuance of Lu Xiaobing's order, the camp gate of the Changying army camp was slowly opened, and the team composed of light infantry and crossbowmen, who had long been ready, set out from the camp gate, and began to advance towards several potential positions of island people under the guidance of scouts as guides.

It's just that there are some things that people are not as good as heaven.

Lu Xiaobing was hoping to wipe out the remaining Japanese here, but an accident happened.

In a military tent near the entrance of the tunnel of the island country, a soldier who was sleeping with a harazi unconsciously said a dream word.

"The braised pork is so fragrant~"

Hearing the sudden sound from the military tent, the island country scout who was in charge of monitoring the military tent was shocked, although there was no follow-up sound, but he still used the kunai in his hand to cut a small hole in the Tang Army military tent in front of him, and a faint light shot into the military tent along this opening.

Seeing this opening, and the glimmer of light that shot into the military tent, Shi Chang suddenly felt bad, and prepared to start waking his subordinates in a whisper according to the predetermined plan.

Before Shi Chang could start moving, the island scouts had already begun to look inside.

As a result, with the faint light that slanted into the military tent, what caught my eye was one after another soldiers lying in kimonos, fully armed, and a long-tasseled army that had already risen.

At that moment, the commander of the Changying Army and the island country scout looked at each other, and the surprised island country scout immediately let out an exclamation.

The exclamation in the middle of the night was particularly penetrating, suddenly waking up the remaining soldiers of the Changying Army who were still asleep, and at the same time focusing the attention of the highly nervous scouts of the island country.

The battle in the camp began suddenly.

The moment he heard the shouting of killing, Lu Xiaobing above the watchtower let out a light sigh, it is impossible to take it in one fell swoop, but how can this thing be perfect.

Without any hesitation, Lu Xiaobing quickly ordered, and the soldier with a torch behind him began to draw circles with torches.

Seeing the changes on the watchtower, the soldiers in the center of the camp immediately began to reinforce each battlefield along the corridors in the camp according to the arrangement, and at the same time completed the blockade.

The gunpowder master lit the fuse leaking from the bottom of the barrel in the middle of the camp, and after a few breaths, a glowing fireball flew out of the barrel and soared into the sky, sending out a brilliant fireworks in the sky, lighting up most of the night sky, followed by a boom.

Huge red fireworks and loud noises are the best signals in the night.

At this moment, Hattori Masaemon, who was standing on the mound outside the camp, stared blankly at the huge fireworks that suddenly appeared in the night sky.

In order to complete this big gamble, Belly threw almost all the scouts and most of the samurai at his disposal into the night attack, but before leaving, he temporarily chose to stay outside in a restless mood.

In fact, when he saw the sudden appearance of several fires in the field, Hattori already felt a deep sense of unease.

Regardless of it, unwilling to accept defeat, he chose not to retreat, but also put all the remaining forces into it, he wanted to use the remaining reinforcements to attract firepower for his elite scouts, and strive to inflict the greatest damage on the Tang army.

Compared with the dazed Hattori, all the soldiers of the Changying Army were under the command of the officer.

The soldiers in the large battalion began to encircle and suppress the island scouts who had emerged from the tunnels in an orderly manner, and the light infantry that had attacked in advance let go of their pace and began to advance rapidly towards the target.

As for the entrances to several tunnels, the bearer lit the fuse on the large assembly, then threw the big guy into the tunnel, and quickly evacuated.

At this moment, the island scouts and samurai trapped in the tunnels did not know what they were going to face.

Soon, the fuse burned to the end, igniting the bag that wrapped the jar, and the black powder in the compartment of the bag began to burn violently.

Under high temperature and pressure, the black powder in the clay pot reacted quickly, and a violent explosion occurred in the confined space.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Six muffled thunderous sounds in a row made the whole land tremble.

In the tunnel, the black powder mixed with frosting was directly rushed out by the impact of the explosion, and the black powder mixed with frosting was directly jumped to the scouts of several island countries closest to the explosion point, directly igniting their clothes.

Adhesion and burning have been greatly improved, and the main body of the burning soon changed from clothes to the flesh of the scouts of the authentic island country.

At the same time, the explosion and heavy combustion caused the temperature in the tunnels to rise dramatically, while at the same time almost completely depleting the air in the tunnels.

The entire tunnel turned into a lit kiln in a short period of time, and the island scouts and samurai who remained in the tunnel were instantly filled with a burning and suffocating feeling.
