The cavalry who led the team wiped the sweat from their foreheads and said, "These Han people actually sleep with short guns in their hands, it's really damned!"

The other cavalryman also said with trepidation: "They have fired the firearms, will they alarm the Ming army camp?"

The cavalry who led the team shook his head and said, "No! It's at least three or four miles away from them, and it's still in the limelight, and the sound can't be heard!"

The other cavalryman also relaxed when he heard this, and then became excited again and said, "We have made a fortune! There are two horses here, and weapons! It's a pity that these two people don't collect at night, and they don't have iron armor."

The cavalry who led the team naturally knew that he would not wear iron armor for the convenience of not collecting it at night, so he impatiently wiped the blood stains of the scimitar on his leather jacket, put the knife into the sheath and said, "Don't say so much, hurry up and pack your things, and go back to report the news!" I really didn't expect that four people would die after two nights!"

The other cavalryman also said hatefully, "These Ming dogs really deserve to die!"

Just as the two of them were about to collect the loot, a flash of fire suddenly flashed at the foot of the small mound! The fire flew straight from the ground to the sky, and then there was a loud "bang", and a red white flame burst into the sky! Under the firelight, the two people, who were already stunned, saw a man galloping backwards on horseback under the mound!

Then the two of them said almost in unison, "Oh no! And the sentry!"

It turns out that the sentry post under the night is a group of three, two bright and one dark! Ming's sentinel draws attention on top of the mound, while the other hides behind the side of the mound. As soon as there's a stir on the mound, he'll get the news right away!

Then one of the horsemen asked eagerly, "What should I do? Shall we chase after it?"

The cavalry who led the team said angrily, "What are you chasing? I didn't see him use the fireworks signal, he could see it more than ten miles away, and now the Ming army must have prepared there! Besides, riding fast horses at night, do you want to die?"

The grassland looks flat and endless. But in reality he is not as smooth as it seems. Among them, there are often small ditches and small bumps on the ground. There are more things like otter holes, rat holes, etc. If you are running at high speed at night, if you step on a ditch or fall off a horse by trampling on a hole or stumbling on a stone, you will definitely be killed or injured! Therefore, even the steppe people will not be willing to ride horses and gallop at night, at most they will only trot.

While the two were still deliberating, Hatch had already started scolding! "What a fool who is not even as good as a mouse, how can you let people set off fireworks signals! Don't wait, rush over!"

The cavalry behind him immediately slowly started up and began to gradually accelerate, rushing straight forward. As a result, he had just started moving here, and two fireworks were rising one after another about seven or eight miles away from the left and right, and it seemed that the other two teams had also been discovered!

And Hatch guessed that the two horses might not even have been touched. Because he was the first to expose the fireworks signal here, he would definitely be able to alert the other sentinels. But at this time, he couldn't care about anything else, and he had to rush into the camp of the Ming army as quickly as possible.

However, Hatch was very confident in this, and three or four miles was only a matter of an eye for the cavalry. According to his understanding of the Ming army, when he rushed to the other party's camp, maybe those Ming army sentries were still busy putting on their pants and making a mess!

Liu Haojia was asleep, but suddenly he heard a sharp whistle outside! He sat up from the bed excitedly, grabbed his pants and put them on his legs, and the feet that stretched out were already in the *** leather boots, and he twisted them twice and put them on his feet!

Then he stood up and tightened his belt, and his pants were already on, and he stomped his leather boots. However, he got up in a hurry and didn't wear socks, but it didn't hinder normal running and fighting!

At this moment, the tent was opened and rushed in, and Liu Haojia asked loudly, "What's the matter?"

The man who ran in front said loudly, "There is a fireworks signal from the north, the enemy is attacking!"

As he spoke, he had already unfolded Liu Haojia's shirt, Liu Haojia reached out and put on his shirt and began to button it, and the family helped him tie his belt, and then another family member came up to put on his breastplate. While the two families were tightening their cuirasses behind their backs, the other one had definitely helped him put them on

Helmet, the last one definitely handed over his sword. Liu Haojia directly pulled out the knife from the sheath, threw the scabbard on the ground and stepped out of the big tent.

By this time the shrill whistle was already in the camp one after another, and all the tents were shaking, and it seemed that the soldiers were already dressed and equipped in the tents. At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and the family members hurriedly drew their knives out of their sheaths to protect Liu Haojia. The chaos at night is a good opportunity to assassinate the commander, and it must be guarded against.

As a result, by the light of the fire in front of the tent, it could be seen that Guo Zhankui, who was on duty at night, came. Seeing the person who came, Liu Haojia said loudly, "In addition to the warning fireworks signal, is there anything else?"

Guo Zhankui replied, "No, everything is normal on my way here!"

Liu Haojia thought for a moment and said loudly, "Then the enemy is four or five miles away! Go and let the cavalry take their horses out at once, and avoid the south."

The reason why Liu Haojia let the cavalry out of the camp to avoid this night battle was because the cavalry was really useless in the night battle. Moreover, when the war horse encounters a fight in the camp, it is easy to be frightened and run and jump, and it is easy to have problems when the camp is disturbed.

After arranging for Guo Zhankui to be left, he continued: "Light all the fires in the camp, keep the fires outside the camp first, and light them when you hear the enemy arrive!"

Immediately, a family member ran over and arranged for the person on duty to light the fire. The fire in the camp is very good, because there is a lot of firewood in the camp, as long as you throw the firewood into the fire that has not been completely extinguished, and pour a spoonful of oil, the fire will burn immediately.

With the rapid movements of the soldiers on duty, the fires lit up one after another, and the whole camp began to become bright. At this time, there were already soldiers in the tent who had finished dressing and rushed out one after another, and began to assemble in the open space according to the squad.

Seeing this, Liu Haojia's heart was half settled, and he turned around and climbed directly to the watchtower next to the big tent. This watchtower is specially prepared for the manager, so that he can quickly see the whole situation in the camp and make decisions.

By the time he ascended the watchtower, the whole camp was as bright as day, and everything was in his eyes. The soldiers who had assembled first were being arranged by Liu Ren and Guo Zhankui to run to the camp wall. The line of defense there will soon be fleshed out.
