Chapter 373: Reaching the Boundary

A team of hundreds of people marched quickly under the night with the moonlight, and even a torch was not lit, like a ghost in the dark. Without any complaints, the entire team had only the sound of rushing.

"Stop!" Gao Jichong, who had already dismounted, looked at the terrain while walking, and climbed over the hill ahead, which should be the valley on the border.

Although Gao Jichong wanted to rush over with a rush, as a general, he could not be so selfish. He had to think about these brothers and take them back as much as possible.

Even if the valley opposite is Jingzhou's territory, he had no idea whether the other party had troops or not, so he rushed over rashly, which was too dangerous.

The entire team immediately stopped and circled in a circle based on the team. Everyone took out their own backpacks, which contained dry food, and took out some and put them in their mouths to chew.

"General Evil Dog, I want to go to the hill ahead to check it out." Gao Jichong finished eating the rice cakes and prepared to explore the way to see if there was any movement in the valley.

"I'll call you a few people and walk with General Gao." The evil dog nodded and asked Gao Ji to rush to investigate alone. He was the commander of this trip.

He picked up the water bag and took a sip. Gao Jichong took the knife and set off on the road. Six guards followed.

On the top of the mountain, the night wind was gentle, and Gao Jichong was excited. He didn't care about appreciating the stars in the sky, and looked carefully towards the valley.

Soon two camps were found in the valley, one was close to, and the figures could be seen. As for the other, it was not clear that they could only see some burning bonfires. Judging from the number of bonfires, the number of people in the two camps should be similar.

Gao Jichong wanted to go over and investigate clearly, but in the end he gave up the idea. There must be many secret whistles around the camp, and he accidentally turned himself in.

"Retreat!" Gao Jichong looked at it for a long time, but the distance was too far, so it would not make much sense if he stayed there.

When Gao Jichong and his party returned to the camp, except for the guards on the periphery, everyone in the camp chose a shelter place to rest.

Everyone puts it in a sleeping bag, which only has an opening on the face, which is convenient for breathing and checking the situation.

Gao Jichong also has a sleeping bag. This is the first time he has come into contact with this thing. The outside is a layer of sheepskin and the inner lined is cotton. It is not a good warmth effect, but it is enough in the south.

Putting the scabbard and water bag under your head, Gao Jichong crouched his whole body in his sleeping bag, warm and starlight filled the sky as soon as he opened his eyes.

A small sleeping bag made Gao Jichong feel deeply moved. This elite force was all piled up with money, and I don’t know how many such elite force there were under the command of the Zhongyong Army.

The thick fallen leaves on the ground were already soft, and with a comfortable sleeping bag, Gao Jichong slept very well that night. He was so tired, even though Wu Ling was still in the enemy territory.

A rustling sound came one after another. Gao Jichong opened his eyes and the entire team began to pack up. He also unbuttoned the sleeping bag like others, rolled it carefully, and put it in his backpack.

I went to the stream to fill the water bags, washed my face again, and ate rice cakes as usual, which brought enough for two days. Although it was not as good as the wine and meat that I used to be, it was better than the brown rice.

"General Gao, did you find it when you went there last night?" The evil dog got up earlier. He had already eaten the rice cakes and stood up to move.

"I saw two camps, but the scale was not large, because the distance was a bit far, so I didn't see how many people there were." Gao Jichong was a little regretful. If he could get close to count the number of people, it would be easier to deal with it.

"Then I will take some brothers to explore the way forward. General Gao will bring the large army here later." When the evil dog heard that there was really an enemy army, he decided to go and see it himself. Gao Jichong couldn't see it clearly, which did not mean that he was not good. After all, he was the leader of Sun Yu's guard camp and was also assigned a telescope.

"Then, when the brothers are packed, I will lead the team to set off." Gao Jichong agreed. The army should have had scouts ahead of the battle.

Now that the enemy has been discovered in front of you, you must not be careless and have to be energetic.

The evil dog directly ordered a few people to go with him and climbed to the top of the mountain.

If the color is not bright today, the sun has not yet risen, the bonfire in the enemy camp has not yet been extinguished, and it is clearly visible from a distance. The other party does not have a high-end product such as a sleeping bag, so they can only sleep around the bonfire to sleep more peacefully.

The evil dog held up his telescope and looked around each bonfire. There were many soldiers surrounded by each bonfire. After a rough count, there were about a hundred people.

Looking further away from the camp, there are no specific people, but the number of people in this bonfire is almost the same, so the number of people should not be large.

"General Evil Dog, what kind of treasure is this?" Gao Jichong walked up with the large army. Seeing the evil dog holding a cylinder and looking around, he was a little curious.

"Try the telescope, I'll teach you." The evil dog handed over the telescope and taught Gao Jichong how to use it. With Gao Jichong's current status, it will be assigned sooner or later.

"This thing is really wonderful, and it is indeed capable of far-reaching. I don't know who comes from?" Gao Jichong sighed. He didn't know how to make this thing, and he definitely deserves the reputation of being ingenious.

"The Duke of the State personally designed and asked a craftsman to make it. General Gao, each of the two camps should have about a hundred people, and we have the advantage. Moreover, the two camps are more than two miles apart. If they go fast, they can be taken one by one." The evil dog was very confident that even if the opponent's soldiers were united, they could still eat them. If they could attack them separately, they would be completely free of effort and the damage to the war could be minimized.

"Since we have this thing, we can wait for it." Gao Ji Chong weighed the telescope. With this thing in his hand, even if it was dawn and without the guidance of the torch, the other party would not be able to escape their sight.

It is completely possible to set up an ambush through the opponent's route, which is much easier than killing him.

"Then let General Gao, what do you do if you say it." The evil dog scratched his head, and he could only kill him simply and roughly. After all, he was the leader of the Guards, not the kind of general who led troops alone to fight.

"Let the brothers go to that location to rest first, accumulate energy, and wait until the other party moves." Gao Jichong looked at it, pointed to a relatively gentle hillside and said.

This location is very close to the valley, a camp near the other side is about three miles away and will not be discovered.

Since the other party appeared here, it is likely that he had received the news that he had come here to support the previous Nanhan soldiers. They didn't know that those people have now become prisoners.

The evil dog took the large army to go down first. Gao Jichong held up the telescope and looked for a while. The other party's camp has now started to make fire and cook. He should not be on the road for a while. He also hurried down the mountain to meet with the evil dog.

Seeing the evil dog, Gao Jichong handed the telescope over and felt quite reluctant to leave. This was a weapon on the battlefield.

The evil dog took it, took out the cotton cloth from the wooden box containing the telescope and carefully wiped the lens, then climbed directly towards the big tree next to it, staring at the other party's movements.

After breakfast, Nanhan's camp began to move. Perhaps because of his good luck, the camp that was far away had not yet been set off, and the distance between the two sides was even further away.

"General Gao, you bring people to set up an ambush here, and I will take some of my brothers to the rear and intercept their retreat." The evil dog touched his chin. These three hundred and one hundred, if you have the intention to make up for it, it would definitely be a great victory.

The copper mines on the Duke's side are more labor-intensive. These are absolutely strong laborers, so how can we let them go in vain?

"Evil Dog General, we just need to kill the other party and rescue my wife. If there is no way out, the other party will inevitably suffer damage when fighting a trapped beast." Gao Jichong felt that these brothers came to rescue his wife, and it would be best if they could not be injured.

I guess as long as there is a rain of arrows, the other party will be in a panic. They just need to go over and rescue Wu Ling and return.

"General Gao, this is all about military achievements and rewards. Brothers will always have to get some subsidies when they come out." The evil dog grinned. This kind of scene was simply free. If anyone is injured or died, he can only blame him for his bad luck. After the evil dog said that, the soldiers around him were all straight and deeply agreed.

Gao Jichong looked up at the sky. Who are he? He is also an elite leader in the Southern Han Dynasty. He is not a pig. How could he do it like he was coming out to pick up money?

"General Gao, I'll leave it to you here. I'll take my brothers quickly, otherwise it's too late." After the evil dog said that, he ordered fifty people to walk with him and walked around the enemy's rear. There was no road in the wilderness, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive.

The Southern Han army was not moving fast. They had been in the mountains for many days. Even if the supplies were free of charge, they were sleeping in the wild, so complaining was naturally indispensable.

"Sir, you said that Captain Fei is the same. You can't catch it even after seeing it. How come you can't even catch a fugitive? How come you can't catch a fugitive? You can't even have three heads and six arms?" One of them was in a state of resentment. It was too annoying to catch so many people and ask them to support him.

"What can we do? How can we not come for such a big thing?" The captain was not happy. They followed behind, and they would not be able to make any contributions, but if they did not provide timely support and let the other party run away, they would have to take the blame together.

"But after passing this valley, you will leave the boundary." Everyone looked at the land under their feet. This valley was the dividing line between the two sides. It is common to cross the boundary with Nan Chu. After all, Nan Chu is weak, but this border has passed and is the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty. Although the storm has been shaking in the past two years, the lean camel is still not easy to mess with than a horse.

"Why can Fei Donghui go, why can't I go?" The captain was quite unhappy. Fei Donghui was in front of this wilderness. What danger was there to follow him?

"I heard that the Duke of Min is not easy to mess with." Everyone looked around and heard that the man who was decisive in his killing and had a bright combat power under his command.

"It's all his damn head and two arms, who is worse than who is better?" The captain didn't care. The man was busy going to war with Yue. Here, it would be good if they didn't cause trouble for each other.

Seeing that his lieutenant was so confident, it was not easy to lose his might. He just nodded silently. If there was any danger, the lieutenant Fei in front of him would definitely have news.

As for Fei Donghui and others being taken down, they would never have imagined that in this wilderness, dozens of people with sticks were considered bandits, let alone elites with more than a hundred armed forces.

"Stop, stop, stop for a while, I'm exhausted." The captain was so tired that there was no way at all, and it was too painful to climb.

"You guys, go ahead to explore the way first!" The captain sat down, raised his water bag and poured it into his mouth. This place is not as good as before, and it is considered an enemy territory, so the scout should have sent it.
