It is still easy to pass through the snow-covered moat in the cold winter. When everyone comes to the city, they line up on the other side of the moat moat.

"Brothers, follow me as the city's instructions."

There are ten ropes hanging from the battlements of the city wall, divided into servants and officers from different teams. After going down the city, they will first go down to meet the later ones, and then inform each other, and line up on the other side of the moat.

There is one advantage in the vast snowy field. Even on nights when the stars and moons are relatively weak, you can see clearly. The reflected light of the snow that has not been trampled much brings brightness.

In recent months, there are enough meat, fishy, ​​oil and salt servants and young policemen who have been doing well have not been night blind. Under the brightness of the snow reflection, they can generally have a decent vision to ensure actions and reactions.

Zhu Da and Zhou Qingyun walked in the front, Wang Hu followed them, and behind them were the captain of the servants and young policemen. The higher the status, the better the treatment on weekdays, then you have to be ahead. Leading ahead is not just an example.

After going down the city, everyone except Zhu Da was not allowed to speak. Everyone just followed Zhu Da's back and used a few simple instructions to signal with whistle.

There is a firelight on the city wall near the city wall, and everyone can see it clearly. You can see Zhu Da raise his arm and gesture at the city wall, stretching out his fist to shake. Many people can't figure out this action, and they can only understand that Mr. Zhu is encouraging himself to do his best.

This is the experience in my memory of more than 20 years. I use my fists and two fixed light sources to determine my direction. The night is dark and the vast snowy fields. Although the Yingpan and Huairen County of Mongolian Grain Station can be used as references, it is easy to lose the concept of distance and near in the dark. Many people will regard the mountains and fields as cities, and being confused about direction is a big trouble.

"...The Tartars didn't take this county seriously at all. The camps were all dark at night..."

If you are on high alert, the lights should be bright at that night. Once there is an alarm, you will immediately react. In this era, lighting the lights is not so convenient, and you must prepare in advance. Looking at the Mongolian camp at the top of the city, in addition to the necessary bonfire lights, it is as dark as before at night. This contempt and ignorance can be said to the extreme, but this is reasonable.

However, such dark camp and the lights covered by the angle caused difficulties for Zhu Da to confirm the direction. He could only prepare in the city to avoid going astray.

“……You can still go wrongly if you have just a little road…”

"...It's dark and there are people in a village who can't find their way home, and they are in the wilderness..."

Some people raised such questions and immediately refuted Dong Zhen, who was a hunter, was actually the main question being young men. The servants who came from outside the city had similar experiences. The wilderness outside the village was full of dangers and unexpected results. At night, there were accidents and disasters when they left the village without seeing anyone.

Everyone was moving silently, and everyone behind had to follow the front. Because of the tension and rules, everyone didn't have much thought to look around, but they could feel that it was not moving in a straight line, but that they had gone in a circle, and it was still a big circle, as if they were walking north first.

Zhu Da walked in the front, while Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu did not follow him all the time. They had a large range of movement and kept running to the front, back and left and right of the team, and then ran back.

Meng Tian and Fu Yu were walking in front of the team. Fu Yu wanted to walk in the team, but Meng Tian was very arrogant and pulled him to walk in front. He had no choice but to raise his head and chest to be a hero. The two of them were generous and passionate, and they were a little more curious than others. They knew that Wang Hu and Zhou Qingyun were swimming and reconnaissance, and they also knew that they had to go around in a circle and break into the weak position of the enemy camp, but they were unable to communicate and could only use their eyes to see each other clearly.

When large army operations, the compliant camps have various arrangements for response. For example, the gates are often suitable for entry and exit. Similarly, this place is also the most important place for defense. Fortifications such as rejection of horses will be set up here, and the guards will also be concentrated here, facing the enemy, the area closest to the enemy is also the most dangerous, so the defense is relatively strict. Zhu Da is very familiar with the geography of the farm and knows where the main gate should be opened and where the area closest to the city is. Both places must be avoided.

It was cold late in winter, and the 197 people who left the city were not too thick. They would feel cold on weekdays, but after eating enough meat and dry food, they were all young and strong, and they were walking, and some even sweated a little.

The county town is not far from the farmland, and even if they go around in circles, they don’t spend much time. They soon arrived at the direction they were scheduled. On the west side of the farmland, about 300 steps away from the grain platform of this camp. If there is no snow, there will be farmland under their feet.

After walking for more than an hour at night, everyone gradually adapted to the darkness and followed in silence. At this moment, everyone's breathing was still stable, but it was much faster than when they left the city.

In fact, I was not tired when I was walking. The reason for my breathing was because I saw the Mongolian Liangtai Yingpan, which was dark all the way. When I arrived here, everyone saw a little clearly with the lights of the Yingpan, and their breathing became rapid.

The enemy camp was right in front of you. When you saw the outline of the black camp, it was like a beast holding in the dark, or an extremely huge beast. When you were about to rush towards the beast, will it be swallowed by the beast, or can hurt the beast and drive it away? Everyone was not calm.

"Squat down..." Zhu Da whispered, the sound was very low, only Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu behind him could hear it, but everyone who heard it was delivered backwards with an almost low voice, and soon everyone squatted down.

Everyone was half-squatted down, and some people also took the opportunity to move their legs and feet. Although they were not very tired, they always had to relax. Everyone knew that they would fight with real swords and guns in a moment. "...... they had to move their hands and feet before they started, and they would die if they were less powerful..." The experiences taught to Zhu Da by Xiang Yue and Yuan Biao were also told to the servants and young policemen intact.

"There is no cover here. There should be two secret sentries behind the cover. There will be a team of cavalry patrols about one stick of incense. The three of us will first touch the secret sentries and wait for the patrolling cavalry to come over before moving forward." Zhu Da whispered.

Zhou Qingyun nodded, but Wang Hu couldn't help laughing. If Wang Xiong was frivolous here, it wouldn't be surprising that Wang Hu had a solemn personality, and why did he laugh when it was important to rush to the middle of the night?

"Don't blame me, you are not bad at following the rules of the camp, but you can also divide the places when you get points. If the main camp, if there is a strong enemy on your side, you will either be in charge of it or it will be strictly arranged for life and death. The main general and personal soldiers must also inspect and control it. But why do you think this place should be strictly prevented? There are soldiers watching Datong and the West Road, and this small county town is not taken seriously, so what are you afraid of? Thinking about it, I can't help but think too much before we come..."

When Wang Hu explained this, Zhu Da immediately understood. For this Mongolian Grain Station Camp, there was no threat worthy of warning around. Why bother with this effort, eat and use food and grass, seize and slaughter, how happy it is, why bother to work hard on yourself? Besides, even if the Ming Dynasty official army really comes, if it really comes, what's the use of setting up a police whistle?

"My master said that the best food station is the best. It seems that the Ming Dynasty and Mongolia are all the same." Zhu Da said in contemplation, shaking his head as he said.

Deducting food and grass, cheating, and fearing death. A military ration station is often served by the chief general and chief officer or even higher-level confidants. They are often arranged to come here to enjoy making money, and the most corruption is the most corruption.

In the darkness, with the reflection of the snow and the faint lights from the Mongolian camp, the three people in the front looked at each other. Although they could not see clearly, they could see that their expressions were a bit strange.

This Liangtai Camp is likely to be a lazy person who looks like a lazy person. This conclusion can be drawn from any angle, and it can't even be blessed by God. If you change your own situation, you will probably be very unsuspecting. Thinking about the fact that your family has already made up their minds to die when they left the city, they never thought that it would be such a lazy opponent...

After a moment of silence, Zhu Da suddenly reached out to slap himself. He stopped as soon as he made a move, and said in a solemn voice: "There are fewer Tatars riding horses and setting off their bows in this camp. How can we relax now? Do you think we can live tomorrow?"

This made Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu silent again. After a while, Wang Hu spoke in a stern voice: "I thought it was cut into pieces, but when things happened, I found it was a beheading. I always felt that I had made a profit, and I was really happy too early."

"A tiger fights a rabbit. One point of strength should be used to use ten points. Besides, the enemy is strong and I am weak. If you go ten times more, what's there to be happy about? Be careful and do it all, it's okay!"

"Owner, are you still thinking about winning?"

"What if!"

People are in the dark and are extremely tense. They can no longer say that they have a normal mentality. They are prone to being too optimistic or pessimistic when encountering things. Fortunately, Zhu Da's "bystander" mentality has helped, and can ensure sufficient calmness to calm everyone's mood. But no matter what, the current situation is more optimistic than when leaving the city.

Originally, Zhu Da was going to touch the secret whistle with Zhou Qingyun, but Wang Hu stopped him, "... It's okay to lead the way, but the army cannot be without a general. If you have any good or bad, these two hundred people will disperse..."

Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu bent over and ran forward. Zhou Qingyun was too familiar with the terrain of this farm, and the Mongolian soldiers and horses had not been completely renovated, so the layout did not change at all. There were only more parked chariots and new piles of grain and weed. Even the periphery was simply surrounded by piles of large trucks and piles of grain and supplies.

Zhu Da was not worried about Wang Hu and Zhou Qingyun's skills and experience, but he didn't know the arrangement of the Mongolian camp. When the person left, he began to count the pulse and calculate the approximate time.

They went quickly and came back quickly. At most, in an incense stick, Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu trotted back. Although there was no one in the snow, they did not walk fast. They stopped after trotting for a while and moved forward intermittently. The reason was very simple. If there were indeed cavalrymen patrolling and patrolling coming, they could hide in time and not be discovered.

After the three of them reunited, Zhu Da noticed that Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu's breathing was much faster. For people with their physique, their actions just now were not as tired, and they would not make them nervous.

Did something happen?

From leaving the city to now, the journey has been quiet. If there is really something wrong in the enemy camp, you can turn back into the city, but then you will just wait for death in the city, and Zhu Da himself becomes nervous.

"...There is no secret whistle in the camp..." Wang Hu said in a rough dress, and Zhou Qingyun focused his head.

This result was unexpected and unexpected. Zhu Da was shocked at first, and then he could figure out why the county towns should be closely guarded by such camps. The hundreds of cavalry guarding this Liangtai camp can kill all the resistance in the county town. What's so scary?

What's more, there are small groups of cavalry traveling in the northeast, northwest and south directions every day. What threats are there in the county town without any officers and soldiers? Today, hundreds of cavalry entered the camp, which requires more than a thousand cavalry forces in the camp.

"Okay, according to the prior agreement, divide into six teams, check the number according to the pulse, and count one team for every hundred, and you must not take the lead." Zhu Da whispered.

Before leaving the city, I had a very detailed plan. After approaching the enemy camp, the team advanced to avoid being alarmed when they approached, and also avoid being caught by the enemy's post or patrol cavalry after being discovered.

At this moment, Zhu Da still forced himself to calm down, but some details were not done so well. He began to whisper the orders, but the servants and young policemen did not think anything was wrong and obeyed the orders.

Zhu Da was the first to bring people over. These dozens of people bent down and trotted forward. The only obstacle was the snow that had not been trampled much. The snow almost exceeded the calves, but the snow also had benefits. The soft snow made the world very quiet.

After arriving at the edge of the Liangtai camp, Zhu Da and his servants stopped and looked for a shelter to hide whenever possible, waiting for their companions to meet up.

It can be seen more clearly when the distance is close. Such temporary camps without external threats are actually far behind the "military camp" in the strict sense. They are just a temporary yard with certain regulations.

The heavy supplies that cannot be used for the time being, and those that will not be taken away during retreat are piled up on the periphery. The food and grass that are departed every day and even the military equipment must be stored on the inner circle and on both sides of the road. The women who have to be brought back to the grassland are in the inner circle with the guards. Some guards are also at the main gate of Yingpan. There is the most convenient place to rush in and the place where friendly troops enter and exit the most frequently every day. They must be able to deal with it.

The place where Zhu Da and his friends are doing bunkers is actually a pile of straw. This must have been plundered from the homes of the Ming people. These straws can be used to feed livestock and burn fires when they are chopped, but they are definitely not as useful as forage and grain. Now they are seized and transported every day, so no one pays attention to this kind of effort. Anyway, they were transported by Han prisoners at the beginning. Now that they can't use them, they are piled on the periphery.

In addition, there are many broken furniture and wooden objects piled up on the periphery. There is a shortage of wooden objects on the grassland, so every time you rob a furniture and wooden objects is the key, but there will definitely be damage during the washing and massacre. These things are burned directly as firewood and piled up on the periphery.

The outer edge of Yingpan yard is such a pile of straw, and some damaged carts and furniture are scattered around each other, which can be considered a boundary.

It is no longer very dark here. The lighting is mainly a fire that has not yet been extinguished in the camp. I secretly poked my head out of the bunker and could not see any figures shaking. I could only see the familiar houses of the countryside and the tent on the other side of the house. The whole room was quiet. Occasionally, I could hear the cry of women, or the woman who was caught was frightened and sad, or after being ruined and ravaged.

This sound was clearly heard in the quiet dark night. This sound made the young people behind Zhu Da angry, and even cursed.

Zhu Da tried hard to calm himself down. After everyone gathered, the Mongolian Liangtaiying Pan was still quiet. Zhu Da took a deep breath and could not control his excitement.

".........When you see the fire inside, you will set fire outside..."

"...... Kill people when they see them. Whether they are Tartars or Han people, whether they look like Han people or prisoners captured by Tartars, whether they are men or women, if there is something wrong, they will kill them. If there is a hint of softness, you will die..."

"...Don't get gold, silver and wealth when encountering gold, silver and wealth. If we can kill all the Tartars, everything will be ours. If we don't kill them all, we will have no life to enjoy..."

Zhu Da lowered his voice and reminded him that during his instructions, the servants began to light the torches that had been prepared long ago, and some people placed the wooden spear on the spear thrower, and those with the bow were maintenance.

"Brothers, follow me to kill the thief!" Zhu Da's voice raised a little, holding a Park knife in one hand and a torch in the other, walking towards the Tartar camp, but still walking in the front.

Zhu Da didn't run fast at first. He suppressed the team and even took a lighter pace. When he entered the farm, he threw the torch out.

Twenty days ago, this farm was still the place where they lived and trained, but now they cannot show any mercy. The torches were not thrown to the thatched roof that had been covered with snow, but were thrown to the pile of firewood in the yard. I don’t know if anyone lives in the house, but the gates of the yard are all open.

Zhu Da and his servants did not enter the yard, but set fire along the way. There were not many people living in a dilapidated house, but if they wanted to go in and kill people, they would easily be resisted by others by relying on the house, which would delay progress and time.

The firewood pile was dry, and the torch was wrapped in cloth strips and soaked in grease, and it immediately started to burn. In the granary camp where there were not many places in the fire, the fire looked very conspicuous. Zhu Da looked back and looked at the place where he came from. The ten servants who were left there should have started to prevent fire.

Running towards the tent, there would not be too many of the cavalrymen living in the yard. For the convenience of entering and exiting, they must be in the tent, and they were the ones who killed them.

Zhu Da began to speed up his pace, and torches were thrown out behind him. Any piles of grain and grass that you saw along the way would be ignited. Not everyone followed Zhu Da. Zhu Da, Zhou Qingyun and Wang Hu each led more than 30 people, advanced together, and killed and set fire together.

While we were walking, we saw someone lifting the tent and walking out, yawning and lowering his head. We didn't realize what was going on, but we were immediately alarmed by the dense footsteps. We looked up in shock, opened our mouth and shouted "Are there..."

He only shouted this word, and three spears roared on him. At this distance, spears penetrated through him and directly stabbed the person back into the tent. He could hear a scream from inside, and the entire camp began to be alarmed.

If it is a tent for living, it will take a lot of effort to tie it up, but it is also very strong, and it is difficult to blow when the strong wind blows. However, the temporary stand-up of the march is much simpler and easy to be destroyed.

Zhu Da stepped forward in two steps, and slashed the door of the tent with a Park knife, cutting the tent apart in a small half. Behind him, the long halberd in Ji Xiaodong's hand followed, and hung the gap with an axe blade and pulled it hard, lifting the tent directly. The four people inside had not yet stood up, and even one of them had not had time to get the weapon.

It was too late for nothing, so Zhu Da waved his sword and stabbed him, with a long halberd and spear behind him following him, screaming a few times!

Not only did the screams sound, but the other directions were also there. The servants were not only standing behind Zhu Da, but also in teams of five people began to rush into the tent to kill.

Who would have thought that there would be an enemy attack camp while sleeping, and who would have thought that such a small county town would not lie on the chopping board and would dare to come out and fight to the death!

From the time of breaking into the Ming Dynasty to the present, the Mongolian cavalry encountered no obstacles along the way. They just went south, plundered, burned, killed, and plundered. They were about to return to the grassland to victory. Everyone was relaxed, exhausted, and slept heavily. Who would have thought that the weak Han people who seemed to be pigs and sheep would dare to raid at night!

When I heard the screams and killing sounds, some people had not woken up yet, and some people thought they were dreaming. When the tent was lifted up, the cold wind blew, and when the weapon was added, everything was too late.

"The Ming Dynasty official army is here!"

"The Ming Dynasty's official army is here to kill the Tartars!"

"Don't rush into the tent, use the long halberd and spear to open the tent and do it!"

The people brought by Zhu Da were shouting, "The government army is here to kill the Tartars!" Most of the Mongolian cavalry did not understand, but there were also some that they could understand. This is what they were most worried about. The only thing they would occasionally think of and worry about while being carnival and arrogant. In this dark night, they would be completely amplified under this unexpected precaution.

Someone shouted wildly, "The Ming army is here." This time, he shouted in Mongolian. Everyone who heard it was full of fear. How could the thousands of cavalry in this camp be able to defeat the thousands of troops of the Ming Dynasty? If you want to survive, you should escape!
To be continued...
