Chapter 42 Raid

The smoke started to rise, and the camp was filled with the aroma of rice. This was the time that Jianzhou Army looked forward to most every day, and dinner was the time when the food was best every day.

Today, among the people around Sun Yu, there was Chen Qiba, who was holding a pile of big bowls and was digging hard. He was too tired from the afternoon work and needed to eat more.

"Bahu, did your father send you here because he couldn't afford to feed you?" Lao Cheng saw Chen Qiba finish eating and then go get another bowl. He couldn't help but joked that this meal was three times better than his own.

point.

"That's not true. Today, I think this meal is very delicious and better than the food at my father's place." Chen Qiba knew that Lao Cheng did not mean any harm, so he was not angry. Although he was a major general, he did not receive preferential treatment in the military camp. The food of the loyal army was

It really doesn't compare to this place.

"Just eat it, it's enough! If you don't have enough to eat as a soldier, how about fighting a war? In my place, I don't dare to say anything else. You have enough food and clothing, and regular pay." Sun Yu is not stingy about this, these guys

Although the soldiers' combat power is currently limited, their loyalty has been initially established. Their hearts are fleshy, and they are all simple young men. The treatment I give them exceeds their expectations, so they are naturally willing to sacrifice their lives.

"crossing the river"

Early the next morning, when Chen Qiba's 300 personal guards arrived, Sun Yu ordered to cross the Min River. At this time, the Min River was not in a hurry, but there were many people and materials, so they could only cross the river in batches. The first ones to bear the brunt were those who were familiar with the environment.

Chen Qiba and his three hundred personal guards were also responsible for the ships crossing the river arranged by the Zhongyi Army.

"Sir, I'm humble enough to take the first step." Chen Qiba saluted and glanced at Cheng Zhenbei provocatively.

"When we get to the other side, organize our formation first to prepare for any eventuality!" Although I don't think there is anything wrong at the moment, it is better to be cautious. My family has a weak financial background and cannot withstand the trouble.

"I obey my command, let's set off!" Chen Qiba waved his hand, and three hundred soldiers boarded the ship one after another.

"Master, what should I do?" In the trees on the other side, a man dressed as a military counselor said to the middle-aged man beside him. The middle-aged man was Bai Yong, the master of Bai Yutang.

Brave.

"Evacuate!" Bai Yong looked at the ships that had reached the middle of the river and shook his head helplessly. He was originally here with more than a thousand brothers, trying to find an opportunity to give the Jianzhou Army crossing the river a showdown. Unexpectedly, the one who crossed the river first was

The son of the Jiedu Envoy of the Zhongyi Army brought with him another three hundred soldiers, so he decided to forget it. Even if he won the battle and offended the Zhongyi Army, he would be looking for death.

"Just withdraw like this?" The master was unwilling to accept it. They also had spies in the Jianou Zhongyi Army's territory. As soon as the Jianzhou Army entered the Zhongyi Army's territory, they knew about it and arranged a well-planned strategy, but they returned without success.

"Three hundred elite soldiers are enough to support the second batch of personnel to come for reinforcements. If you can't eat, don't fight to the death. Losing soldiers and generals in vain, and offending the loyal army, this business cannot be done." Bai Yong originally came from the local wealthy Bai family, and this deal

No matter how you settle the score, it won't be settled, there's no need. Now that the Jianzhou Army is here, everyone in the three major forces is in danger, so why bother being the first person? Just give the news to those two families.

Bai Yong made up his mind and led the team away in an instant.

It wasn't until the sun set to the west that the entire team crossed the river. The last group was the cavalry. Sun Yu's treasure was naturally not allowed to be lost.

"The cavalry will work as a small team and go twenty miles out to conduct a thorough search." Today the army had to reorganize and camped by the river. Without a thorough search, it would feel uneasy.

"Follow your orders!" The eighteen young men led their respective teams and spread out to search.

"Sir, there is something unusual ahead." With just a stick of incense, a team

The cavalry returned.

"Let's go, Bahu, let's go take a look." Sun Yu mounted his horse and took Chen Qiba and the cavalry to check. As for Cheng Zhenbei, he had to stay and watch the camp.

Sun Yu indeed discovered something unusual in the woods. The fallen grass and broken branches showed that a large number of people had been stationed here not long ago.

"Bahu, what do you think?" Sun Yu picked up a small piece of cloth that was scratched by a branch and looked at Chen Qiba.

"People from Bai Yutang." Chen Qiba replied directly without even looking at it.

"Why?" Sun Yu came here for the first time and didn't understand the specific situation in Jianzhou, so Chen Qiba's opinion was naturally extremely important.

"The other two major forces are in the south. Only Bai Yutang can gather so many elites in the north. Besides, when we cross the river, it will be difficult to hide it from his eyes and ears. He is a coward with treacherous intentions but no courage." Bai Yong obviously thought.

The Jianzhou Army who ambushed the Jianzhou Army crossing the river here and finally withdrew. Chen Qiba looked down upon this man quite a bit. If he had been more courageous, maybe we would have made a contribution.

"How far away are they stationed?" Sun Yu estimated the traces. There were more than a thousand people, and most of Bai Yutang's strength was here.

"Forty miles away, right on the edge of the Min River. The people in this area to the north of Jianzhou are fierce and fierce. The three major forces want to bite them off, but they are all afraid that they will suffer a loss and give others an advantage." Chen Qiba was familiar with this.

Very good, after all, Bai Yutang has his own spies.

"There is still an hour before dark at this time. They have been walking for more than an hour at most, that is, before dark, and they can't reach the camp?" There are more than a thousand people. If it is a field battle, Sun Yu dares to eat it in one bite. Besides, his subordinates are all

The new recruits have never seen blood. This is a good opportunity for military training. If they can kill more than a thousand people, these men will be considered serious soldiers. And when they first entered Jianzhou, they severely damaged Bai Yutang and captured Fusha County.

, just around the corner.

"Sir, you are wise, but this is a night battle. I am afraid of blowing up the camp." Most of the people here are night blind. When fighting at night, once the camp is blown up, it is often out of control. What's more, they are all new soldiers. Once the camp is blown up, they will chop at random without distinguishing between ourselves and the enemy.

G.

"Who said fighting at night? Isn't it better in the early morning?" Sun Yu smiled slightly.

"Instruct all squads to conduct careful reconnaissance, find out where the enemy is, and keep in touch!" Sun Yu ordered the cavalry squad, and then quickly returned with Chen Qiba.

"The guards camp, the sword and shield camp, and the spear camp are ordered to pack up, bring dry food, and march quickly! The bow and arrow camp, and the strong crossbow camp stay behind to take care of the supplies." As soon as he arrived at the military camp, Sun Yu immediately gave the order. This kind of field battle, long-range

The troops are meaningless, they are left to look after the supplies. If something goes wrong with the supplies, everything will be in chaos.

In just one stick of incense, each battalion was ready and set off quickly.

The cavalry team in front had already discovered the enemy's traces, and news kept coming. Sun Yu led the army to catch up.

"Sir, the enemy troops in front are already burying pots and making rice, about fifteen miles away. The enemy's sentinels were released five miles away, and the low-ranking officers were not discovered." Han Zaiwu and Gao Huichang led a group of cavalry and returned when it was dark.

, assembled with Sun Yu’s army.

"Have you found a good place to camp?" Sun Yu nodded, these guys are quite smart.

"Six miles ahead, there is a mountain col that can block the wind." Gao Huichang recalled briefly and hurriedly replied. The army was moving quickly, and all the tents and bedding were left behind, so naturally they had to find a shelter from the wind to spend the night.

"Inform all battalions not to light torches, not to make any noise, and to continue setting off."

Under the night, the army marched forward under the moonlight. Although it was slow, they finally reached their destination.

It was pitch dark in the mountain col. The soldiers sat around and picked up dry weapons.

Food and water bag, eat and drink at the same time. Dry food is hard steamed buns, although it is not delicious, it can fill you up.

"Sir, look, it's right there!" Han Zaiwu said, pointing to the place where a bonfire was lit in front of him, which was Bai Yutang's camp. Vaguely, soldiers patrolling the camp could be seen, but it was not a mob.

"How many sentinels are there on the other side?"

If he accidentally breaks into the opponent's camp, the sentry must be killed.

"Three people, I have seen them from high places before." Bai Yutang did not expect the other party to be so bold. After crossing the river, he found their traces and immediately chased them.

"Is it possible to deal with them early tomorrow morning?" It must not be unplugged now. The detectives must go back and report regularly. Once there is no news, they will definitely be more vigilant.

"I will personally take the people there and ensure that the task is completed!" Gao Huichang and Han Zaiwu looked at each other and replied in unison.

"You two each lead two people, one in the light and one in the dark, and they must be neat and tidy!" If there are too many people, the other party will inevitably turn around and run away. Only when the number of people is about the same can the other party's wariness be lowered.

Sun Yu called the commanders of each battalion to make pre-war deployments. After approaching the enemy camp tomorrow, the cavalry battalion launched the charge first, taking advantage of its speed to disrupt the opponent's deployment and unable to form an effective blocker. The Guards battalion following closely behind, as a

The main force of the battle penetrated the entire camp. The two sides were unable to coordinate their operations, further damaging the other side's confidence. The Sword and Shield Battalion and the Spear Battalion came to the rear and killed all enemies who dared to resist.

Sun Yu woke up before dawn. It was his first time to command a battle, so he was naturally nervous. Sun Yu sat up and looked at the soldiers around him. Soon, some of them would leave this world, and those who survived became stronger.

.

"Am I too cruel?" They were supposed to live in peace in Jiangning, and be free from war for at least four to five years. Because of their own ambitions, they were taken far away from home. I wonder how many of them could go back alive?

"Mom, dad, don't worry, I've eaten well and slept well!" A soldier next to him was talking in his sleep.

Sun Yu raised his eyebrows and smiled, yes! At least they can live a life that they didn't dare to dream of before. At least it gives them a possibility.

In the darkness, the six people led their horses and quietly left the camp. It was Han Zaiwu and the others who were preparing to kill the sentry.

After a while, the entire camp stood up one after another. Everyone picked up their water bags, wiped their faces, and then took out dry food and started to eat.

"In more than half an hour, it will be dawn!" Bahu came to Sun Yu and whispered.

"Let's set off, men with grass in their mouths, horses with rings in their teeth." The entire army moved forward with the faint light, and except for the sound of men and horses stepping on the ground, there was no other noise.

"Sir, it's done!" After two sticks of incense, Han Zaiwu and others returned, bringing three horses with them. Although the cavalry battalion was full of new recruits, they were well equipped and each man had a crossbow.

"Well done, come back to the team!" Sun Yu waved his hand and was very excited. There should be no surprises in this battle.

"Form the team!" Sun Yu waved his hand and ordered, and the entire team stopped and arranged according to the battle plan.

Sun Yu took the lead, serving as the sword of the entire cavalry team. Followed by three hundred elite soldiers led by Chen Qiba, and then by Cheng Zhenbei's Guards Battalion.

"Follow me!" Sun Yu pointed forward, and Li Huo under the seat started to trot. In order to save horsepower for the charge, Sun Yu tried his best to suppress the rhythm. At this time, the sky gradually became brighter.
