Chapter 221: Repairing the plank road openly and secretly visiting Chencang
"Are we going to eat them? At least we can capture a batch of armor and weapons."
You Chuiyun shook his head.
"That would alert the enemy."
Li Mu almost jumped up. He was surprised and said: "Do you have any idea about that stronghold? But we only have 200 people, and we are still a group of defeated soldiers. How can we occupy a barracks stronghold with a thousand people?"
You Chuiyun whispered: "According to my speculation, the flat hinterland in the lower reaches of the river is most likely a battlefield, and it is impossible to say that the human-monster army is facing off.
The veteran said that the supplies in the barracks were decreasing by about 4,000 kilograms every day, which had been going on for several days... This was calculated based on the minimum daily food consumption of the soldiers. The demon army on the front line could not exceed 5,000, which meant that the army was very large. It is possible to stand still and station the troops for confrontation, otherwise there would not be a fixed daily consumption of food, grass and baggage. "
Li Mu was confused and didn't know how to answer.
"But - they monsters can eat more food than us humans, and the actual number of them is also smaller."
In order to not look stupid, Li Mu said it thoughtfully and calmly.
You Chuiyun touched his chin and said: "It's very possible... I observed the demon army. They often like to raise giant beasts, and they are probably also big consumers of food."
Kuruki was a little happy because he was not an idiot either.
"What about now?"
"Garrison a hundred people here. Pick twenty strong men to follow me. I want to follow this pair of demon soldiers.
By the way, give me a share of the messenger tiger talisman so that it can be done directly..."
Li Mu scratched his head and interrupted: "It's gone a long time ago. It was taken away by the demon clan of Rulin."
You Chuiyun had no choice but to look back.
"If there is no messenger, how can we communicate?"
Li Mu shook his head and said: "Either we risk our lives and go together, or we split into two groups and find a place to rendezvous."
You Chuiyun said: "Then let's meet up."
"Ah? What are we going to do?"
You Chuiyun thought for a while and revealed all the plans in his mind.
Li Mu looked solemn when he heard this, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat for a while.
"Would this work?"
"I don't know - even if it doesn't work, we have to do something. We finally touched the baggage and forage stronghold behind the enemy's rear. If we successfully remove it, wouldn't it be a great achievement?
When the time comes, you will definitely become a full-time official, and you will have 1,800 soldiers under your command. I will not reward you with the rank of a school captain. "
Although Yu Chuiyun's words were deceptive, and although Li Mu knew that Yu Chuiyun's words were unreliable, it was true that he had made great achievements. The supply of food and supplies was the foundation of an army. If its foundation was destroyed, the building would naturally collapse.
This credit was something he would never get the chance to touch in his lifetime.
So he said in a deep voice: "I, Li Mu, am just a brave warrior with no ideas. You Shaoxia is very resourceful. I only do what you tell me!"
It doesn't matter whether he has done meritorious service or not, he just wants to contribute to our army and our human race. "
You Chuiyun was also a little excited.
"Let's work together and make some achievements to show those people what it means to be a pillar of the country."
After the two decided, they immediately divided their forces according to You Chuiyun's plan.
The old soldier turned out to be a member of Li Mu's clan with the same surname. He also came from the same hometown. He was the captain of a detachment, called Mr. Li.
Kurimu was afraid that Yu Chuiyun did not have enough prestige, so he named the old member Li to follow Yu Chuiyun. This member of the team still spoke the truth, so there was no need to worry about the soldiers being disobedient.
However, Li Mu still overthought it. The soldiers were very lucky to Yu Chuiyun, especially that night when the young hero went into the jungle with a gun and killed so many people in a ten-mile radius that no monster dared to get close.
The banging bag of demon pills is proof.
You Chuiyun followed the group of patrolling demon soldiers. With the reminder of the divine stone and the experience of the Li officers, he broke through the secret sentries everywhere. Relying on the favorable terrain, he finally came to a hilltop that could be seen far away from the demon army's stronghold of supplies and supplies. .
Several people were crawling on the top of the mountain wearing grass blades, and some of them had cold mud on their bodies to lower their body temperature.
Li pointed at the flying eagle that was circling in the sky not far away and said: "That stupid bird has very good eyes. It is very sensitive to living creatures. It can see clearly at the slightest disturbance. It is so annoying that it lingers - - But if there are good crossbowmen in our army, we can shoot them down and make soup to drink. This bird soup tastes pretty good. I was lucky enough to drink it once. It is worthy of being raised by the demon tribe at a high price."
You Chuiyun nodded. To be honest, he felt that he could shoot a few with his bow.
"Since this thing has such good eyesight, we must be more careful..."
Member Li nodded and said flatteringly: "Yes, yes, yes."
In fact, there is no reason why he should not be more diligent. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that You Chuiyun is not an ordinary monk. He has done a lot of things and is proficient in various techniques. His medical skills are even many times more powerful than those of the military doctors who accompany the army. Those injuries and injuries have broken his arms. The leg problem can be easily solved by him - their living conditions are so bad, but there is no malaria raging in the army, it is probably the credit of this young knight.
That day, Li Mu speculated that You Chuiyun might be a disciple of a big family who came down to train, so naturally everyone looked up to him.
There are only a few children from aristocratic families who can achieve the level of You Chuiyun, and they are all the pride of heaven.
This member Li had complicated thoughts, so he was submissive to You Chuiyun and fawned over him.
Then You Chuiyun kept observing the demon army camp below and stopped talking.
It was okay at first, but everyone followed me and said that I was not tired at all. As long as the movements were not too big, I could pick my buttocks. , but the mud on the body is gradually warmed by the covering, and it needs to be removed and reapplied - and having something cold against the body all the time is also a kind of torture.
After a while, they couldn't hold on any longer.
"Young Shaoxia, the mud on our bodies is almost hot... Look..."
You Chuiyun nodded and said: "I can lower my body temperature by myself. If you can't hold on, you don't need to accompany me. Hey, remember, don't make a fire."
Officer Li was granted amnesty and slowly retreated with the two of them, but there were still two people who were crawling with gritted teeth.
After a while, two more people came up to take over, and there were always two people on duty beside You Chuiyun.
——
"Young hero, what do you mean you haven't come down yet? It's been three days. What's going on? Haven't you understood the layout of this camp? Even I understand it."
In a soil hole dug at the foot of the mountain, Li was gnawing on raw sweet potatoes in depression.
"Brother, do you think this young knight doesn't understand the ordinary method of duty rotation at all..."
"Hey, I think there is a possibility."
Member Li also nodded slowly.
"Maybe."
However, he reacted immediately and slapped the soldiers' heads horizontally with a crackling sound.
"What are you talking about? What are you talking about? You are the only ones who are rotten fishes and shrimps, and you still dare to talk nonsense about Young Master You? If it weren't for Young Master You, you would have been eaten by those monsters who cooked soup for you, and sucked all the bones and dregs dry for you. Clean!”
The soldiers had earth-colored faces and did not dare to say anything about You Chuiyun.
Although Mr. Li was so protective of You Chuiyun on the surface, he couldn't help but beat the drum in his heart. No one other than him knew what the plans of Li Mu and You Chuiyun were. He, Mr. Li, was also very puzzled. In the past, He had to be the first to know about this kind of thing - but he couldn't be jealous of You Chuiyun.
In his opinion, he is incomparable to a wealthy young man, let alone his superiority.
Moreover, this young master is simply omnipotent, and he is not a figure who seeks merit in the military. He actually leads everyone through obstacles, just like the night before when a group of wild boars came over and gave everyone a feast.
If they hadn't eaten so much that night, many soldiers would have starved to death that night - with more than two hundred mouths, it would certainly be difficult to feed them.
"Boss!"
At this moment, a soldier covered in mud, although shivering from the cold, could not hide his joy.
"Move, move!"
"What?"
The soldier said excitedly: "Young hero has moved!"
——
"It's been three days and you still haven't caught those bandits?"
In the camp, a young demon general with an evil look sat upright on the skull dragon chair and asked angrily.
"That...that group of bandits...are really too smooth. They don't seem to be interested in large items. They always harass our convoy, but they don't completely snatch it away. Our several ambushes were of no use. I sent people to chase them, but they encountered a group of unintelligent beasts to stop them, including a six-armed bear ape. These guys are too cunning, and if they don't fall for the trick, they won't be able to catch them."
"Don't be fooled? Is this the reason why you can't catch anyone? Humph, a group of local indigenous people are dissatisfied with the army of our Demon King, so just kill them all -"
"General, are those people not bandits? Although they are all in tatters, they don't look like them to me. Could they be human beings?"
"Impossible. How could the human race appear behind the defense line at this critical juncture? Where did it come from? Did it fall from the sky? If the human race army really came around, would they still test us? They would have come to raid our hometown a long time ago. .
It can only be those old stubborns who refuse to obey His Majesty the Demon Emperor regardless of life and death, even risking their lives for their own beliefs. "
At this time, he changed the topic and sighed: "If it weren't for the tight situation on the front line, I would spread out my army and destroy you."
"Destroying Ya - what do you mean?"
The young evil general stood up and picked up the big bow on his back.
"This is the mantra spoken by the teacher in the palace." He said, "It means annihilating everything."
The general guarding the stronghold was ready to go out personally to exterminate the bandits who suddenly appeared.
So he withdrew half of the troops in the camp and went out to wipe out the bandits.
——
"It turns out that the plank road was built openly to infiltrate Chen Cang!"
Member Li said excitedly.
"Of course, you can't let your master out when you steal a house. Besides, I'm not sure I can win against the stationed general."
You Chuiyun squinted his eyes and said, "I saw with my own eyes that he brought down a small mountain with one shot from his bow."
