Chapter 157: Operation Surprising Soldiers (Part [-])
Li Ye and Luo Jin worked together. Luo Jin touched the edge of the forest and hid behind a big tree. He was only ten steps away from one of the patrols.

Li Ye was hiding in a big tree eighty steps away. He watched the three patrolmen chatting and laughing, and rode slowly.

When the time comes, draw three arrows, draw the bow like a full moon, and shoot the arrows like shooting stars chasing the moon, and shoot the three arrows in one go.

'puff!puff! ’ The two soldiers in front shot through their heads with an arrow, and they didn’t even scream, ‘Plop! 'Sacked.

No.3 soldier shot through the horse's head with an arrow, the horse fell to the ground, and the soldier fell more than a foot away. At the same time as Li Ye's arrow shot, Luo Jin rushed out, and his target was the soldier closest to him.

Before the soldier could stand up, Luo Jin had rushed to him, and punched the soldier hard on the temple, causing the soldier to faint immediately.

Li Ye and Luo Jin worked together, dragged two corpses and a horse corpse into the forest, and began to interrogate the captured soldiers. Luo Jin understood the psychology of the Luo people better, and within a quarter of an hour of harshly interrogating the prisoners, the prisoners collapsed. Honestly explained everything.

"He said that the cattle and sheep were all in Fengzhou, and he didn't bring them. Their army rations were all plundered from the counties in Shuofang. Most of the food and fodder were in Mingsha County, and only a small part was in Daying, which was used to confuse the Tang army."

"How did you tell him that you explained it so quickly?"

Li Ye was very puzzled. Before he interrogated the centurion, no matter how much he tortured him, he refused to do so.

Luo Jin smiled wryly and said: "It's not that they don't have fear. They don't fear death or torture, but they are afraid of the Longevity Heaven, and I am also afraid of the Longevity Heaven, so I know."

Li Ye pondered for a moment, and suddenly realized something was wrong, the other party had set up a trap.

He hurriedly said to Luo Jin: "You go back immediately and tell His Highness that the other party puts a small amount of food and grass in the camp, which will definitely allow us to get it easily, and then the other party will definitely pretend to be defeated. When we chase, the formation will be scattered, and they will fight back."

"I'll go back now, but what about setting fire?"

Li Ye looked at Mingsha County and said calmly: "The small city wall of Mingsha County can't stop me!"

Li Ye smiled at him again: "Don't worry! If I succeed, at least [-]% of the credit will be due to you!"

With Li Ye's promise, Luo Jin let go of his heart, and he immediately rode back to the station to report.

Li Ye glanced at the prisoner of war who was staring at him eagerly, and cut his throat with his backhand. The benevolence of women on the battlefield is the most stupid, and they will only kill themselves. He has learned a profound lesson before.

At this time, night had fallen, Li Ye continued to let the soldier Liu Xing watch his horse, and he ran towards the county with a knife.

There are only 3 Tongluo cavalry. They have to face [-] Tang troops and Guo Ziyi's [-] troops. It is impossible for them to allocate too many troops to guard the camp and the county.

They also pretended to confuse the Tang army, so the defensive forces were mainly concentrated in the camp, and the county town had very few troops, but the Tongluo army hid the main food and grass in the county town.

There are only [-] garrisons in Mingsha County, and the city gates are closed, and there are basically no soldiers on the top of the city.

Not seeing soldiers does not mean that there are no soldiers. The 24 soldiers were divided into three squads and patrolled the top of the city for twelve hours. There were almost no dead spots on the top of the city.

The city of Mingsha County is not high, just like Anle County, only about two feet. Compared with the height and generosity of Chang'an City, Mingsha County is not worth mentioning.

Li Ye climbed the city wall every day in Chang'an, and the city wall of Mingsha County was completely child's play to him.

Li Ye chose the city wall in the northeast corner. He leaned against the city wall and looked up at the moonlight.

A full moon travels through the clouds, sometimes bright and sometimes dark. When the moon enters the largest dark cloud, the earth becomes dark.

Li Ye immediately turned around and climbed the city. All the small gaps could become places for him to cling to. He climbed up the city like an ape. He clung to the top of the city with one hand, and pulled the long rope with his teeth with the other hand. pull up.

His knife weighs 55 catties, and it is fine to carry it down the city, but it is not realistic to go up the city.

Grabbing the saber, he put the saber on his lap for the time being, freed his hand to put the rope away, then held the saber, and slowly looked up at the top of the city.

There are two groups of patrolling soldiers on the head of Beicheng, each group of about ten soldiers, patrolling back and forth, there is a group of soldiers in front of him.

Li Ye glanced at the moonlight again, the moon was about to come out from the dark clouds.

The patrolling soldiers had already walked past him, and when the patrolling soldiers turned their backs to him for about thirty steps, Li Ye jumped onto the wall, rolled forward, put his hands on the wall, and his body was already inside the city, hanging on the wall, only Two seconds.

Li Ye nimbly jumped into the city and quickly got into an alley.

There were no civilians in the city, they were either massacred, or all others were driven out of the county seat, and the county seat was empty, with only a thousand garrisons.

It was time for the soldiers to eat. Even so, the warehouses in the city were still heavily guarded. Three hundred soldiers guarded [-] large warehouses, half of which were grain warehouses and half were fodder warehouses.

Tongluo's soldiers were relatively lax in defending the city wall, but they were extremely tight in defending Cangcheng. The fence around the warehouse can be described as a post at ten steps, and a sentry at five steps. It is almost impossible to climb over the wall.

Li Ye's eyes fell on the Caohe River. His original plan was to sneak in through the water gate of the moat. It was well waterproofed and had a special sealed leather bag.

Li Ye found a private house to store his weapons first, then dived into the water and slowly swam towards the water gate.

Both sides of the river are also heavily guarded, with dozens of soldiers standing guard on both sides of the river.

Li Ye walked close to the bottom of the river like a fish, and he could feel that just above his head, there were several soldiers pacing back and forth, watching the movement of the water surface vigilantly.

Li Ye used a thin bamboo tube to breathe. By the river, a soldier stopped, observed the bamboo tube for a while, then turned and left. The moonlight was just covered by dark clouds, and the light was dim. Take out the bamboo tube.

Li Ye continued to swim forward, took dozens of steps, and finally came to the water gate.

The water gate is an iron fence, which has been built for many years, and the bottom has long been rusted.

The bottom of the fence reached the river bed. Li Ye pulled out an unnamed dagger. The dagger could break gold and cut jade. city.

Dugu Lie hurried into the commander's tent, saluted and said, "Why did Your Highness cancel the plan to sneak attack on the enemy's logistics camp?"

Li Chu said indifferently: "I just got the information that the enemy army's food and grass logistics center is in Mingsha County, not in the logistics camp. The logistics camp is a trap."

"trap?"

Dugulie was stunned, "I don't understand the humble position, where is the trap?"

Li Chu said slowly: "We will easily destroy the enemy's logistics battalion. Tomorrow they will definitely pretend to retreat in a hurry. Once we believe it is true and lead our troops to pursue, we will be attacked by him. At that time, our formation has dispersed and the infantry Unable to withstand the cavalry raid, it is likely that we will be defeated by the enemy's counterattack."

Li Chu agreed with Li Ye's analysis. The grain and grass were obviously placed in Mingsha County, but a logistics camp was deliberately built behind the military camp. The guards were still loose, which made people feel that there was an opportunity to take advantage of it.

Li Chu said again: "Since there is no food and grass, there is no need to attack again."

Dugulie nodded silently. If it is true that the enemy's food and grass are in Mingsha County, as the intelligence said, then there is really no point in attacking the enemy's camp.

Lai Zhen, who joined the army, said, "His Royal Highness, can we follow the plan?"

Li Chu said with a smile: "There are prerequisites for making plans, we really don't know, but if we burn the grain and grass in Mingsha County, what's the point of making plans?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, could it be that His Royal Highness King Guangping arranged another surprise soldier?
