Chapter 31 (Breaking into the Camp Alone)

Ling Xiao said: "The general wants our two brothers to behave" Meng Yuan said: "If you want to send all the grain and grass into the city, you must cooperate with the outside or it will be difficult to succeed, I think the two young heroes are strong in martial arts, and the two-zhang wall of Dongchang Mansion will not stop you..."

At this point, how could the fine Ling Xiao not understand, and thought: "It seems that the two of us want to sneak into the city to report the news, and come to meet the outside world, so that we can keep the grain and grass safe."

Ling Xiao said: "That being the case, please also ask the general to show us the details" Meng Yuan said: "Presumably the two young heroes also guessed a rough idea, Meng wants to ask the two of them to leave now to rush to Dongchang Mansion one step ahead of our team; Moreover, our army must not be too close to the southern army, otherwise it will be discovered, at least fifty miles. In this way, the young man risked his life to deliver a letter for our army..."

Ling Xiao waved his hand and said: "How can this little matter stump the two of us, leave it to me at this time, and the general can rest assured."

Meng Yuan was overjoyed when he heard this, and he bowed and said: "Thank you so much, if you can solve the crisis of our army, the two young heroes are really the great heroes of our army" Meng Yuan wrote a letter on the spot and handed it to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao put the letter in his arms and said to Zhang Yu: "Brother, I am enough for this trip, you are here to protect the grain and grass, although the man in black did not come to disturb him on the way, you stay in the army to prevent the man in black from coming to attack, brother, you have to be more careful."

Zhang Yu frowned and said: "Big brother, let's go, you are here to guard the soldiers, horses, grain and grass" Ling Xiao heard Zhang Yu rush forward with him, and his heart was also relieved, and he said: "This brother is not in vain." smiled and said: "Thank you for your kindness, if you don't talk about the experience of the rivers and lakes and the change of chances, it is not that the brother is inferior to you, you are really not as good as the eldest brother"

Zhang Yu thought about it, his own inexperience, when it came to wit and coping ability, he was indeed inferior to Ling Xiao, and said with a worried face: "What the eldest brother said is true, so it is okay, the eldest brother must be careful" Ling Xiao said: "Brother is relieved, waiting for the good news of my brother"

Ling Xiao had a meal with everyone first, and when they were about to leave, Meng Yuan avoided him from taking a detour and delaying the time, gave Ling Xiao the route map of the grain and grass escort, and explained: "In order to avoid the Southern Army from discovering our army's actions, Meng will set up a village fifty miles away from Dongchang Mansion and wait for the good news of the young man."

Ling Xiao said: "General rest assured, the task will be completed in the next place" said that he turned over and got on the horse and glanced at Zhang Yu, turned the horse's head and galloped away.

When he got on the horse, he thought: "This Meng Yuan really trusts me very much, this map is very important, if the treacherous villain hands this map is handed over to the Southern Army, this Yan Army will definitely fall short."

Ling Xiao secretly promised in his heart: "This trip must be successful, otherwise it will live up to the expectations of the people, General Meng's trust" Ling Xiao's horse's hooves gradually faded away, and gradually disappeared in the field of vision of Zhang Yu and others.

Ling Xiao has been in a hurry, he is hungry to relieve his baggage, take out dry food to wrap his stomach, thirsty grab a handful of snow and eat it, originally quite neat clothes and refreshing face, at this time he looked tired from rushing all night.

When it was night, he only let the horse rest for an hour, and at night he urged the horse forward by the light in the snow, and the next day as the sun rose in the branches, Ling Xiao also arrived at Dongchang Mansion and approached the tent of the southern military camp.

Looking at the camp below by the topography, if you don't look at it, you are also surprised by this look, the camp of the southern army seems to be like a wave, layer after layer, one after another, you can't see the edge at a glance, row by row.

There are two big flags in the center of the camp, dozens of zhang away are also clearly visible, one pole is written "Ming" and the other is "Sheng" Ling Xiao has never led the troops to fight, but seeing such a neat camp, how can he not be surprised, it is expected that this Sheng Yong is by no means idle.

He knew that the military situation was urgent, and he did not know how long the grain and grass in the city could be sustained, and he could not delay. After thinking for a moment, I thought to myself, "If I wait until it gets dark, it will be safer, but it will be too late."

Ling Xiao glanced up at the sky, and the gloomy weather for a long time actually saw a ray of sunshine today, as if Dongchang City was intending to greet him today, and an intriguing smile appeared on his face.

I thought: "No matter how smart the commander of the Southern Army is, how can he expect me to break into the camp early in the morning" The so-called master of art was bold, and said secretly: "Your grandfather is here" The long sword in his hand took a deep breath and plundered the southern military camp.

The weather was cold, and layers of "white mist" floated in front of him when he spoke, but it was child's play to march and fight, and the soldiers were on duty and patrolling in shifts, and they did not dare to slack off in the slightest. At this time, when the soldiers standing guard were yawning to make up for their sleepiness, I didn't know that someone had drifted past me with such an oversight.

A pawn called out a black face and exclaimed: "You are..." Before he even said the word "who", he had turned to the ground unconscious, and Ling Xiao said in his heart: "Little brother, you and I have no grievances in the past, and we have no enemies in the near future, and today we are also forced to do it, I can't help it" He walked sideways next to the tent and passed through a few miles, but fortunately, the guards were still a little lazy in the early morning.

Ling Xiao swept out more than twenty zhang away in one breath, he lowered his head and looked at the opposite side again, and thought: "Skip the patrol army and the wooden fence in front of you, and you can go downstairs to the city wall of Dongchang Mansion."

After looking at it for a moment, there was a plan in his heart, and an arrow rushed into the group of patrol officers and soldiers, the man had not yet reacted, the knife had not been drawn, and his body had already fallen, and with the shouting, the soldiers surrounded him after a while, and some people shouted to report to the commander.

Ling Xiao is focused on breaking into the camp, and is not entangled with the soldiers, although there are many soldiers, but for a while can not resist this martial arts master like a tiger descending the mountain, he rushed left and right, his body was like a swallow, a few flashes of leaps out of a few zhang away, and dozens of people were killed along the way.

About half a cup of tea, Ling Xiao was not far from the wooden fence, he suddenly jumped up and made a move, "Lonely Goose Flying South" flew up like a wild goose with wings, and volleyed a few heels, and the person had reached the fence.

The soldiers took knives and guns, waiting for the opportunity to move, but they knew that the other party had a few ups and downs, so they jumped out of the circle, and a few arrows ran out of a few feet. Some chased after them with knives, and some shouted: "Stop, stop..."

Ling Xiao laughed as he ran: "I don't have much gold and silver on me, so I don't need to give it away" He shouted chicly, but he could make those soldiers glare angrily and blow their beards.

Ling Xiao flashed left and right, and several ups and downs had reached the edge of the moat of the city wall of Dongchang Mansion, and shouted loudly: "I am a messenger sent by General Meng, quickly release the suspension bridge" Ling Xiao used internal force to transmit the sound, not to mention that the city tower is a few miles away, and it is enough to hear the truth.

The officers and soldiers of the city tower had already seen the sudden chaos of the southern army, first saw a person coming straight to their city tower, did not know whether it was an enemy or a friend, they had already been on guard, and suddenly heard a voice from under the city wall and heard the word "Meng Yuan" were stunned.

Immediately, a general shouted and said: "You wait a minute, the junior general can't call the shots, I'll report to our general that he knows."
