Born in an ancient peasant family, the peasant girl became famous all over the world

Chapter 187 Bluff and Momentum

While Jiang Yue and Zhang Yan were analyzing the enemy situation, the enemy generals were doing the same.

Inside the enemy camp,

General Luo analyzed: "The group of people who came today was strange."

At this time, a young general beside General Luo said:

"General, I feel that the Donglin Army is bluffing."

"What do you think?" General Luo hoped more than anyone else that the Donglin Army was just bluffing.

"If the Donglin army really came, why don't they just surround our camp and burn us down?"

"Do they dare? There are many Xiangyang people in our camp, and we also have the food they think they want."

The young general said again: "Then just chase them and we will surely catch them all in one fell swoop."

General Luo: "Just wait and see. Our reinforcements will arrive in a month or so."

He still thought as before,

"The enemy has no food and cannot afford to waste time, so they may turn back now."

General Mo asked his doubts: "What if the Donglin army really comes without anyone noticing?"

General Luo: "Our people haven't received the news yet." Food and grass are the lifeline. How can we fight without them?

So he felt that the Donglin Army was not stupid.

However, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing.

General Mo: "Now that the camp has been exposed, if the Donglin Army really comes, they will definitely surround the camp immediately. The previous plan will not work. General Luo, let's hide in Xiangyang County first."

General Luo: "Let's observe for one night and retreat tomorrow morning." Without knowing the situation in Donglin, he didn't want to take risks.

The only good strategy is to retreat. Caution is his greatest strength.

After all, there are not enough troops.

...Jiang Yue listened to Zhang Yan's question and thought:

"If I had not been discovered by the enemy today, the deputy general's method would be completely fine. But now, their plan has been discovered by us, and I am afraid they are trying their best to get information about my army."

"If you want to seize the food, you can't enter Xiangyang County City, so you have to deal with the people in the enemy camp first."

The rest of the soldiers, including Wu Fei, just listened quietly. They had been traveling for a long time and had not stopped until now, so they were so sleepy that they opened and closed their eyes.

Zhang Yan glanced at the gradually rising moon and thought: "They are hesitating."

Jiang Yue: "We will make them more suspicious."

Jiang Yue knew that it would take time to completely kill the enemy with only a few dozen people.

"Provoke... flee... provoke again... completely enrage them, then ambush..."

Zhang Yan: "What if it's hard to anger?"

"Spread false news, saying that our army has already retreated."

"Although it's a bit risky, I have to say it's a good plan. However, the prerequisite is to block the enemy's information."

After saying that, he looked at the soldiers beside him.

"He Chong, Chu Mo, Chen Yong... The rest of you will hide in the places where the enemy must pass. If you encounter any passing sentinels, kill them on the spot."

The few people who had been depressed just now suddenly became clear-headed and nodded quickly.

Suddenly, Jiang Yue thought of something.

"Our army has more than 30,000 grain transport troops. Where are they?" Most of them are logistics soldiers with insufficient combat effectiveness.

"No trace has been found." Zhang Yan has been searching all day.

"Thirty thousand logistics troops cannot be lost just like that." Jiang Yue refused to believe it.

Zhang Yan: "They haven't reached Xiangyang yet. Perhaps General Gao Rong has already made peace with you."

"Probably."

As Jiang Yue spoke, she yawned.

I'm so sleepy that I can fall into a deep sleep with just a pillow.

"You've been busy for a long time, and you're all tired. Let's take a break first and start the action at midnight."

I am really tired after traveling here today.

"Let's go to my house." Chen Lian pointed to the village ahead, and then, mustering up the courage, she said to Zhang Yan, the general who was obviously the leader:

"Although my family is poor, my uncles were the most numerous before, and there are eight huts at home. You can squeeze in. You can also stay at other people's houses in the village. Anyway, everyone has gone there, you can stay wherever you want. They are all soldiers from Donglin, they will not refuse."

Zhang Yan: “Thank you.”

They brought a tent, but since this place was close, they had no choice but to do so.

Jiang Yue went to Chen's house, and they took out the dry food they had brought with them and started eating.

The Chen family was really poor. They dug up tree bark and grass roots to eat. Now the best food was the dry grass roots that Chen's grandmother dug up at the risk of her life.

Therefore, Jiang Yue shared some of her dry food with Chen Lian.

After eating the dry food, the soldiers squeezed into a thatched hut, with two people guarding the night. The guards did not need to move tonight.

Jiang Yue slept on the big bunk bed again, while Chen Lian slept in the room she shared with her grandmother.

She and Wu Fei were lying on the Chen family's kang, and they really didn't expect that they would have a place to sleep tonight.

Everyone was so sleepy that they fell asleep.

When Jiang Yue woke up in the middle of the night, her eyelids felt heavy, but she still got up.

Thinking of tonight's mission, I suddenly became sober.

Around the hour of Chou, the enemy camp is at its most relaxed.

Under the leadership of Zhang Yan, Jiang Yue and other soldiers headed towards the enemy camp.

When leaving, hide your whereabouts.

Approaching, Zhang Yan ordered,

"Create confusion!"

The words fell,

Zhang Yan aimed at a patrolling enemy soldier and shot an arrow through his chest.

Jiang Yue and dozens of other Xuanwu soldiers drew their bows and shot a hail of arrows at the enemy camp, instantly attracting the attention of the Northern Yan enemy.

"Someone is attacking the camp!" The patrolling soldiers shouted in surprise at the entrance of the enemy camp, and the sound of footsteps was heard instantly inside the enemy camp.

"It's really restless!" The enemy general Luo was confused. He had been sending people to observe secretly.

We have not received any news from the main force of Donglin.

Damn it for disturbing my sleep so late at night.

According to his idea, the Donglin army should not appear at this time.

"Gather, defend!"

General Luo led his men to the entrance of the camp.

In secret, Zhang Yan saw General Luo appear and made a gesture.

Jiang Yue and others evacuated quickly.

During the evacuation, Wu Fei was really worried. He rode his horse towards Jiang Yue and asked all the soldiers about their inner doubts.

"Captain, what should we do if they catch up with us?"

Jiang Yue: "Don't worry, even if they want to chase us, they won't chase us on a large scale." There is a saying that goes, "All is fair in war."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of horseback marching, and a team of a hundred enemy soldiers came chasing after them.

The two sides immediately engaged in a melee.

Jiang Yue aimed at the enemy, swung his sword with his left hand and his leg with his right hand, and killed two people in an instant.

The Xuanwu troops she led, after many days of training, were able to kill the enemy without any hesitation.

The enemy soldiers' eyes flashed with fear. They wanted to escape, but their rear was already blocked.

Only then did they realize that they were surrounded by Donglin’s soldiers.

In the end, they were all killed.

After the melee, Jiang Yue and others turned back and went back to catch up on their sleep.

When the enemy general, General Luo, discovered that not only did his men not return, but were all killed, he cursed them as useless.

At the same time, he still decided to retreat secretly tomorrow.
