On this day, the Xu family army walked about 15 miles and almost walked to the foot of Fulai Mountain in one breath.

In the evening, the head of the family, who was in the central army, ordered the troops to set up camp.

Even if he had no experience in large-scale wars, after so many years in this troubled times, Xu Mujiang knew that these fort militias should not be allowed to immediately enter the siege battle after walking more than ten miles.

The divisions have also shown some fatigue at this time and must rest for a night and launch another attack tomorrow.

Only Xu Shiyang's 15th Tun militia still retained a considerable degree of physical strength at this time, mainly because Shiwu Tun had a similar combat experience (nearly 20 miles ahead and attacked the Tartars at night). In addition, the children of the personal soldiers objectively acted as the sergeant. They were scattered in the team, which was of great help to marching discipline.

All troops camped in bays, saying that they were camping and camping, but in fact they were just resting on the ground. However, each bay sent people out to fetch some firewood and dig a large fire pit. The militia surrounded the fire pit to keep warm and avoid the cold, and cooked at the same time.

Because it is already very close to Fulai Mountain, as one of the forwards, Xu Shiyang sent Jie Zhen and Jie Bao's reconnaissance team to carry out a warning mission outside the camp.

These ten soldiers are well equipped, and everyone has a battle bow seized from the Tatars, but only the Jie Zhen and Jie Bao brothers can really use it. Although the other eight people practice archery when they have nothing to do, their poor grades are difficult to see.

Now that it is time to rest, the people in the reconnaissance team do not have to be responsible for cooking, so the Jie brothers took advantage of the opportunity of vigilance on the outside and asked several new recruits to contact the archery.

"Brother, what are you using as a target here?"

Xie Zhen pointed to a short forest not far away and said, "Just shoot there."

Jie Bao looked up and said, "It's too far? You don't need a light arrow to shoot it."

"Then use a light arrow."

The feather arrows seized from the Tatars, no matter how light or heavy, are very valuable. They usually train with their own bone arrows, and no one is willing to use the iron arrows inserted into the arrows.

But now the situation is special, and there will be a war tomorrow. The word "sharpening a gun" in the face of battle is not written, but Xie Bao can't write it, but he understands it.

"The heavy arrows can't be shot straight, those soldiers can't practice now. If you open the distance and shoot with light arrows, I think you can make do with it. When tomorrow, we will shoot the light arrows from afar, and then follow the big army to charge." Jie Bao explained: "Today, each soldier shoots two arrows, which is easy to practice."

Jie Bao’s plan is that simple. Since the soldiers can’t play direct shooting, then don’t shoot it. Just use a light arrow to cover it.

The two brothers can do the things that are being shot directly at the cover of heavy arrows.

"Yeah, okay, just do it!"

Xie Zhen probably understood his brother's plan. He immediately ran away and summoned all 8 subordinates to prepare to contact the light arrow to shoot during this time.

The 8 new recruits from the reconnaissance team quickly gathered together. These people were quite strong compared to other militias. The heavy ten-force battle bows of the Tartars could be pulled apart, but don't expect to shoot accurately.

Bang bang bang bang, a light sound of a bowstring, 8 sharp-headed light arrows flew into the sky quickly. After rising to the highest point, under the control of gravity, these light arrows began to fall. After a moment, with a few light sounds of dodoudou, the arrows landed.

As an old hunter, Jie Zhen had a good look. He took advantage of the moonlight and took a look. Only one light arrow was inserted into the trunk of the short tree as the target. Some of them fell to the ground, and a few of them didn't know where they flew.

He shook his head in disappointment. With this result, if these soldiers were asked to hunt with bows and arrows, they would not be able to hunt anything.

"Brother, this is not OK at all."

"Shoot another round to see." Jie Baoyong said indifferently: "Anyway, we can take back the arrows later. We will shoot up to 5 or 6 arrows tomorrow, and the rest will be enough."

As for the results, it is normal now.

A normal person has not had a year or two, so he can't even learn to shoot archery.

"Okay!" Jie Bao shouted loudly: "Brothers, shoot another round! Don't be bothered. You can shoot one point accurately, and we will die one less tomorrow!"

Several new scouts muttered in dissatisfaction that others were resting, but they still had to work hard to practice archery. Now they can smell the aroma of the food.

The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers.

However, the two captains were urging them to hurry and even said that they were not allowed to eat until they finished the round of shooting. They were soldiers and could not violate the rules. Otherwise, they would not be able to sue Xu Shiyang and they would not be able to take care of them.

Several soldiers each picked up a sharp-headed light arrow, pulled the bow hard, and pointed at the woods 50 steps away.

Boom boom boom boom, another light sound, and the feather arrow flew out.

The scouts breathed a sigh of relief, and regardless of their grades, they turned around and wanted to get the meal.

"Wait!" Jie Zhen suddenly shouted: "What is that? Something rushed out!"

"That's a bandit!" Jie Bao reacted a little faster than his younger brother: "Blow the whistle! Blow the whistle quickly! The enemy attacks!"

In fact, there is no need to blow the whistle, because the bandits who are attacking can no longer help but start howling: "Kill! Kill!"

"Kill the dog thief of the Xu family! Go back and sleep with the little girl!"

...

The second in command of Fulaishan, former officer of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Liu Gao is very! Very annoyed now!

This morning, when the Xu family army crossed Juzhou City and drove towards Fulai Mountain, they had already received the news.

At this point, whether it is a battle or a defense, the shopkeepers must come up with a charter as soon as possible. Otherwise, if the Xu family army comes up the mountain, if the leaders don’t even have a combat plan, it will be funny.

In the end, under the pressure of Yanshun Wang Ying, the two shopkeepers Liu Gao and Luo Daoren had to make some compromises - the four leaders agreed to launch some elderly bandits to go down the mountain tonight and attack once at night while the Xu family army was resting.

According to Liu Gao himself, each of the former Great Zhou soldiers under his command could fight 5 militias from the Xu family, and the elderly bandits under the other leaders could fight 2 or 3.

In this way, tonight, Liu Gao led 200 old bandits, and Yan Shun and Wang Ying led 300 old bandits. Everyone attacked each other on both sides and attacked each other at night, which could defeat at least five forts from the Xu family.

Then they went home to defend, and several of the bacs supported each other and helped each other, so they should be able to defend them.

Yan Shun and Wang Ying didn't really want to surrender. After all, if the Xu family killed Zheng Tianshou, it would not be a good idea to fall into the hands of others.

Since there was an acceptable new plan, they agreed with the flow.

So, at noon, the three leaders picked out their elderly bandits, and Dao Ren Luo gritted his teeth and killed a few fat pigs. The bandits had a big meal, and then they lie in the woods, waiting for the Xu family army to pass by.

At the beginning, the situation was pretty good. The Xu family really had no experience in fighting formations. Before setting up camp, they didn't even send scouts to investigate the forest fifty steps away.

Liu Gao thought that what happened today had been done, and even thought that this time he might be able to directly attack the Xu family army's bombing camp.
