Jiang also didn't understand this pretentious trick. He was full of thinking that if Wei Lin was here at this time, he would definitely act as if it were real, so he handed over all the work to Guo Linchong. Guo Linchong said as he walked: "Brother, this was found near your right camp, there are two more, our brothers are chasing..."
The four patrolmen looked at the three of them suspiciously, first at Guo Linchong and Jiang Ye, then at Zhou Xiao, who had been caught half-dead, and the leader asked, "You?"
Guo Linchong immediately nodded knowingly: "We are from the rear camp. It's not that we happened to see someone suspicious and chased them all the way to the middle camp."
The man looked at Guo Linchong, as if he believed it, and put away his weapons.
"I see that this person's clothes may be a general. He was already injured. We won't catch it," Guo Linchong laughed. "Give it back to my brother and ask for credit? Just mention the patrolmen in our rear battalion. already."
The leading patrol immediately followed with a smirk: "So sensible? If it is a general, the credit is not small."
Guo Linchong nodded and continued: "Everyone is brothers, I thought about escorting them back and running all the way. If you see the two of us like this, we definitely won't be able to get back. It's better to take favor and follow the right camp. Brother, make friends..." Guo Linchong said very sincere and reasonable, if it weren't for Jiang also being on the same side with him, I'm afraid he would have believed this wording.
Sure enough, the other party's expression relaxed a lot.
At this moment, Zhou Xiao, who had been pretending to be dying, suddenly attacked and punched Guo Linchong in the stomach. Guo Linchong was in pain and fell to the ground. Zhou Xiao grabbed Jiang Ye with his backhand again. The small knife he got out of nowhere was placed on Jiang Ye's neck, and he took Jiang Ye back step by step: "Don't come here!"
When the four patrolmen saw this, they took out their weapons and pointed at Zhou Xiao.
Jiang also has the identity of a patrol soldier, and it is no big deal to die. But if the captured enemy in front of him is really a general, no one wants to let go of such a great contribution. So they ignored Jiang also being held hostage and prepared to fight recklessly.
Seeing this, Zhou Xiao hit Jiang Ye on the neck with the handle of the knife, and then kicked Jiang Ye out, knocking over the two with Jiang Ye's body. He didn't even look, he turned and ran. The two who were still standing by the patrolmen chased after them first, and the two who fell to the ground also quickly got up and chased after them.
Guo Linchong and Jiang Ye fell to the ground, maintaining their fallen posture, motionless.
Zhou Xiao's movements looked powerful enough to knock them out, but in fact they were just bluffing and fell on the two of them, which could be said to be painless. The messy footsteps of the patrolmen got farther and farther, Guo Linchong got up from the ground, and then pushed Tui Jiang Ye. Jiang also opened his eyes immediately and got up together. The two patted the dust on their bodies and swaggered into the Wuqu Right Camp.
In the middle of the night, there were not many people walking around in the barracks, most of them were sleeping, and the rest were either patrolling or defending some important things, such as King Wuqu's tent, or the general's tent; .
The two of them walked around quietly in the right camp and looked around. Only one large camp was guarded, Guo Linchong guessed, it would definitely not be the storage place for grain and grass.
Of course Jiang also knew the purpose of this trip. Looking around, he had already drawn an outline in his mind. In the nervousness of performing such spying tasks, Jiang also suddenly had a question: Can this tribe really collect a large amount of food and grass, and then use it for battle
After the question popped into his mind, he couldn't help but think.
Guo Linchong whispered his judgment to Jiang Ye: "The grain and grass should not be here. Looking at the battle of the right camp, there are only about 500 people. If you were the king of Wuqu, where would you put the grain and grass?"
Jiang also thought about it and said: "The middle camp or the rear camp, in short, the farther away from the battlefield, the better."
"Then we definitely can't just retreat today." Guo Linchong thought for a while, "Let's go, let's explore the middle camp."
Jiang also nodded vigorously, agreeing.
Outside Wuqu Camp, Jia Da and Jia Er managed to get rid of the two patrols, and then, as agreed beforehand, went around and took the two corpses along. Rest on the grass and wait for them to come out.
Jiang Ye and Guo Linchong carefully avoided the inspection and did not enter the central camp from the front, because there was someone holding hands there. He can fool the first few people, but he may not fool everyone. With this kind of mood, Guo Linchong took Jiang Ye and the two to find an unguarded place, climbed over the fence, and entered all the way. the center camp.
The middle battalion has more people than the right battalion, and there are many more.
Jiang Ye and Guo Linchong walked all the way in the backlight, bypassing all the torches, and carefully checked the situation. King Wuqu's tent is very conspicuous, and it is clear at a glance that the tent is much larger than the general tent seen before. There are soldiers guarding the surrounding gates and on both sides, and there are not many people.
There is no one behind this king's tent, because it is not needed. There were a lot of siege equipment piled up behind the tent, and Guo Linchong felt a little weird looking at it.
It stands to reason that Wuqu does not have these things. If they could even manufacture siege equipment, they would have already established themselves as a country, and established a city, with vast grasslands, and they could jump from a tribe to become the third largest country. Wouldn’t it be great.
The siege equipment was quite messy. The two of them were separated by a little distance, hiding in the shadows to check carefully. Many of the equipment was damaged, and some were badly worn, so they just piled up there.
Guo Linchong confirmed his guess even more.
They won't fix these, they must have made it themselves.
Jiang Ye's mind was not on this. He kept looking at King Wuqu's tent, which was still lit, very bright. He remembered that Wei Lin was eavesdropping on Xue Ziqin's speech that day, and he saw his shadow. Now, can he go up to eavesdrop on this scene? That is more convenient than the two of them looking around like headless flies, and maybe they can get some unexpected news.
Thinking of Jiang Ye patted the back of Guo Linchong's hand, he whispered, "Let's eavesdrop."
Guo Linchong has a lot of experience, and he can tell at a glance: "There will be shadows."
Jiang also shook his head, pointed at the siege equipment and said, "Deputy General Guo will come with me." After he finished speaking, he slowly moved towards that place, then looked around and no one noticed him, and slowly crouched down until Lie down completely on the ground. Immediately afterwards, Jiang Ye actually crawled forward, crawling directly under the siege equipment. Guo Linchong watched his movements and thought for a while, this was a really good idea, so he followed Jiang Ye's movements just now.
The two were lying under the equipment, very close to the camp, Jiang also dared to return.
After crawling over for a while, he took a sharp knife, pressed it against the ground, and pierced through the tent's cloth. There was a lot of light from this small hole, Jiang also narrowed one eye, and only looked at the small hole with the other eye to check the situation inside.
Unfortunately, the hole was too close to the ground. Although it was difficult for the enemy to detect it, Jiang Ye could only see the feet of the people inside, and could not see anything else.
Fortunately, the voice was clearly heard.
"Your Majesty, the general of the Sui country has reached the border, and he will come to our barracks tomorrow."
"It's too late to come, and now we all have the chance to win. I don't know what it is for Suiguo."
"Your Majesty's words are bad. This time the strategy is all the general's words. Moreover, although the Sui Kingdom has not dispatched a single soldier or soldier, the food is still given to us as promised. Otherwise, we may not be able to conquer Qinguan so easily."
"What do you know? Sui Guo used my Dawu Canal this time. I know very well. If it wasn't for the food and grass in the rear camp, I would definitely not be used by him like this."
Hearing this, Jiang Ye's eyes lit up and turned to look at Guo Linchong. Guo Linchong obviously heard it too, and his eyes were full of joy.
"Your Majesty, if you are expedient, there will definitely be a surplus of these grains. When the time comes, Qinguan will get it, plus Xuanguo compensated us. Last year's harvest was so bad, you can rely on these to make up for it."
"I know. Sigh, it's getting late, you should go to rest first, wait for him to come tomorrow, and then see what happens next, even if I have grievances in my heart, we can only stand in the same boat with Suiguo at this time. ."
"Yes."
After listening to this, it is estimated that this King Wuqu will have to rest. Guo Linchong also winked at Jiang, and the two evacuated directly.
I accidentally heard the words of King Wuqu. It was still early. The two of them estimated that Zhou Xiao should be walking around with the patrols, and the two hurried out of the right camp.
Far away, Jia Da saw two people coming out of the Wuqu camp. After observing carefully for a while, he confirmed that it was Jiang Ye and Guo Linchong. stand up. The two saw the signal and walked towards them quickly.
"How is it? Is it going well?" Jia Da asked anxiously.
Guo Linchong answered while taking off his clothes: "It went well, it went well than expected."
"That's good!" Jia Er replied.
Jiang Ye and Guo Linchong took off Wuqu's clothes, and then Jia Da Jia Er put on the two corpses again. The four quickly dragged the corpses back to the camp not far away, turned and left here, disappearing into the night.
Xue Ziqin had been waiting for the five to return, and finally, before dawn, all four returned safely to the forest where the garrison was stationed.
When he came back, Zhou Xiao was already there, with a cut on his face, Guo Linchong hurried up and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhou Xiao smiled and said, "It doesn't matter, it's just that they were drawn together, so it doesn't get in the way."
Xue Ziqin eagerly wanted to know what kind of information they could bring back this time. He didn't want to hear Zhou Xiao and Guo Linchong's warm-hearted chatter, so he asked Jiang Ye, "How?"
The main purpose of entering this time is to understand the number of people and the location of the food and grass. Jiang also smiled happily, and quickly said to Xue Ziqin: "I have heard about it. There are about 500 troops in one battalion, which is estimated by Deputy General Guo, and the middle battalion is slightly more. , the food and grass are in the rear camp, and," he said, after a pause, he told his own expectations, "the food and grass should be given to them by the Sui country, if the Sui country does not send troops, and asks Wuqu to send troops, I am afraid it is to use food and grass to follow up with them. The siege equipment made a deal."
Hearing this, Guo Linchong also came over and said, "Yes, many siege equipment in the central camp should be given by Sui."
The matter had almost come to an end, Xue Ziqin was thoughtful, but did not speak.
Jiang also added: "Tomorrow, it seems that the general of Sui Kingdom will go to Wuqu. We heard King Wuqu talking to others. It seems that all their plans are also made by this person."
Hearing this, Xue Ziqin was a little dazed: "There are still such skilled generals in Sui Kingdom?"
Jiang also made it clear what he was thinking before: "The meticulous work in the garrison in Hanzhou City should be Cao Zhong. I have inquired before that on the night we were attacked, Cao Zhong did not act with the veterans. Instead, he was alone in the city for a while. I saw him with valuable accessories on him, and he didn't snatch it, it must have been there.
"Cao Zhong is a farmer, so he can't carry this kind of thing on him. And after drinking and chatting in the military camp, Cao Zhong kept talking about Hanzhou, but he accompanied us from Yanzhou all the way to Yanhangu. Recruit."
After Jiang also finished speaking, Xue Ziqin looked at him sharply: "Why do you pay so much attention to him?"
"Because Wei Lin often chats with him." Jiang also said truthfully.
"If Cao Zhong is a meticulous work, then he should be the person of the general." Xue Ziqin said. Zhou Xiao reminded him: "General, no matter who the finer is or who the general is, we are still in the dark and will not affect the plan."
"You're right." Xue Ziqin nodded and said to Guo Linchong, "You arrange for someone to come to Yuzhou to get two war drums," he said, and took out a token from his belt, "This, you take it Go and show it to the generals guarding the city, he will help you, and we will act tomorrow night."
"Yes."
Between the words, Jiang also ran to the fire next to him to pick up a burning firewood and came out. He put out the fire above, knocked down a small piece of charcoal, and then kept blowing air to cool the piece of charcoal.
He held the carbon in front of Xue Ziqin, then squatted down and began to draw on the ground: "General, this is the structure of the Wuqu Camp."
I saw that he was moving smoothly and smoothly, and he even drew the Zhongying and Youying, which he and Guo Linchong had been to, on the ground completely, and then he sketched the other three camps in a hasty manner. The painting was terrifyingly detailed, and even the positions of the camps, the positions of the night patrols, and the positions of the patrols outside the camp were clearly drawn.
The rest of the people looked at Jiang Ye dumbfounded, and Guo Linchong was the most surprised, because he and Jiang Ye saw it with their own eyes, and now they can only remember a rough idea when they come back. But Jiang also remembered all the details, such a memory is really rare.
"Do you remember?" Xue Ziqin asked.
Jiang also nodded vigorously and said, "Well, I want to know their distribution and structure, which may be more beneficial to our subsequent sneak attacks. And I guess the other three battalions should be similar to the structure of the right battalion."
Xue Ziqin made no secret of the admiration in his eyes, reached out and patted Jiang Ye's shoulder: "Good job!"
