Quanzhen Little Daoist starts

The following days were exactly as Qiu Zhiqing expected.

The Xianbei tribe did not launch a large-scale attack again, but several teams of cavalry came out of the camp every day, except for circling around Pingcheng and blocking Pingcheng.

That is to go around Pingcheng and sweep around.

Some of these cavalry came back that night, and some came back only after a day or two.

Most of the cavalry found nothing.

But there are also some cavalry teams, returning to the Xianbei camp with all kinds of blood-stained things.

Behind the return of every such cavalry team, there is the blood and tears of a big Han village!
Two days later...

In the second year of Xiping, the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, this was probably the longest twelfth lunar month that Qiu Zhiqing had spent in the past three years!
Leading the [-] Han army, Guo Yan, the governor of Yanmen County, was still playing hide-and-seek with Wang Tao (Ying County) and Xianbei.

Looking at the bamboo slips in front of him, he asked in a deep voice: "Is what is said in this official document true?"

What he was holding in his hand was the official document written by Qiu Zhiqing to Guo Yan, and the content on it gave Guo Yan, who was always unable to grasp the main force of the Xianbei people, a glimmer of hope.

It's not that he can't beat the Xianbei people, but that they don't fight him at all.

These Xianbei people are obviously here to rob, and they will not confront them head-on at all.

Now Qiu Zhiqing's document let him know where the herds of the Xianbei gathered.

They never expected that the Xianbei people would be so bold as to put their property in Qiangyin County outside the Great Wall.

"Prefect Mingjian, the young one is just ordered to deliver official documents, the young one is illiterate and doesn't know what is written on it, the young one knows military discipline, and never dares to open official documents privately..."

As soon as Guo Yan heard it, he knew that the soldier had misunderstood himself.

These days, privately dismantling official documents is a capital offense!

He secretly thought that he was also confused, and asked the soldier who delivered the letter what he was doing.

Guo Yan couldn't help but fell into deep thought, Qiang Yin was no less than a thousand miles away from where he was.

At this time, it was snowing heavily, and if he wanted to attack Qiangyin by surprise, even if he attacked Qiangyin by surprise, it would take six days. Now Xianbei rangers are chasing everywhere.

If he does nothing, he will be punished by the court for a while.

In this way, it is not enough to go north to defeat the enemy under Pingcheng, and then follow the trend. At that time, whether it is blocking the exit of the Great Wall or rushing to attack Qiangyin, his credit will be indispensable!

As for why they didn't directly deploy defenses in Pingcheng in the first place, it wasn't because of the lack of troops...

With limited troops, as the governor of Yanmen County, he can only guarantee limited, more prosperous areas.

As for Pingcheng, it was hanging out alone. If its geographical location was not too important, it went to Youzhou in the east and Dingxiang County in the west. If it was abandoned, the Xianbei people could directly bypass the Yinshan defense line and attack Yunzhong County.

He had long since given it up.

However, he wrote a letter requesting to restore the test book of the Outer Great Wall, but there has been no reply...

In the second year of Xiping, the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month!Pingcheng!

On the same day that the document was delivered to Guo Yan, Qiu Zhiqing felt that the time had come to attack the Xianbei camp at night!The same observation found that in the past few days, the horse team that left the camp was getting farther and farther.

Even those who returned to the camp were all exhausted.

Not only did he ride a horse back and forth all day, even if he was physically tyrannical, he couldn't bear it!
At this time, Wu Xian's voice came from outside the door:
"The Ming court is here, the humble Wu Xian asks to see you!"

"Enter!"

Really, just as Qiu Zhiqing wanted to find him, he came here by himself.

"Zong Fei is here, what's the matter?"

"Teacher, before the students wanted to attack at night, the students felt that the time had come!"

"Oh?"

Qiu Zhiqing showed curiosity, he really thought of going together, he couldn't help asking with interest: "Tell me what you think?"

Wu Xian said excitedly: "Master, the students observed that these days, in the Xianbei camp, there are often cavalry teams going in and out, usually going out in the morning, returning in the evening, or even at night, I can wait..."

Wu Xian confessed his thoughts in this way, and Qiu Zhiqing nodded straightly.

After Wu Xian finished speaking, he asked him to find his two military lords and Zheng Yan, and asked them to come together to discuss a general plan.

The three of Zheng Yan arrived soon, and after hearing what Wu Xian said, they all felt that a night attack was feasible!
But Qiu Zhiqing's request made them a little dumbfounded.

Qiu Zhiqing threw out a piece of cloth, but saw some schematic diagrams densely drawn on it.

The four of them took a closer look and found that it was the defense map of the Xianbei Camp.

Wu Xian and the other three were illiterate, so Zheng Yan told them what Qiu Zhiqing wanted.

His request is very simple, that is, let them come up with a rough plan.

They already have a plan to sneak into the enemy camp.

Next, they have to decide which door to leave from, when to leave, what to do if they are found out, where is the main target after they successfully sneak in, how to retreat if things go wrong, where to meet if they get separated, etc...

Qiu Zhiqing's request can be said to be different from their cognition, but it seems very reasonable.

Thinking about defeat before thinking about victory is a necessary consideration for preserving vitality...

In the second year of Xiping, the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month!It's night, it's midnight!
In this war-torn frontier, the heavy snow has not stopped for three days, as if it wants to wash away the blood between the world and give people a pure white beauty.

Shuofeng was also merciless, blowing away a layer of snow!
At this time, in the southeast direction where Xianbei was facing, a cavalry team of 400 people, wearing Xianbei costumes, was approaching the camp at a constant speed.

This situation is very common these days.

But at this time, there are not many people who come back at this time. They usually spend the night outside, come back the next day, rest for a day, and continue to go out to sweep!

However, in the eyes of the sentry, this group of fellow clansmen was a bit strange.

Not to mention the tattered fur on his body, there were still bloodstains, but there was no harvest. This is a bit unreasonable, and this team is not quite the same as the previous sloppy queue.

"Password!"

"Return with a full load! Return order?"

"Stealing Festival!"

"The brothers down below are a bit unfamiliar, why are you in such a mess?"

"Hi! Don't mention it, it's hard to say, let's go back to rest first, the brothers on guard have worked hard!"

Wu Xian secretly said: Can you not be so embarrassed?This is the clothes pulled out from the dead!
This team is really Wu Xian and the others. As for how they know the password, hehe, they haven't changed the password in the past three days, so it's hard for them to know.

Presumably they thought that with the little troops in Pingcheng, it would be good to be able to defend the city, how dare they come out to die?
Wu Xian raised his head and saw that the sentinel was not suspicious. He tightened the spear in his hand and straightened the armor under the fur.

This will make you feel more comfortable when you take action later.

Wu Xian looked at the solid wooden camp gate slowly opened, with a smile like a fox stealing a chicken from the corner of his mouth, he took the lead to step through the camp gate, and went into the Xianbei camp...
