Now that it was confirmed that there was no problem, it was natural to notify the other side. These guys came together and protected the chief. The chief took out a small box wrapped in a layer of sheepskin from his body. It seemed that It was specially wrapped for waterproofing. When I opened it, I saw that it contained a small candle, a flint, and something like a red lens. I didn't know what it was used for.
The Tang soldiers disguised as spies could not guess the purpose of these things, because even the confessions of the spies they captured did not have any information about such things. They only knew that they used candles to cover them with their hands when making connections. Flashing three times is to notify people from the other side to join. Even they don't know what kind of signal needs to be sent after it is confirmed that they can cross the river to attack. After all, for the sake of safety, no one will give it to the spies lurking in the enemy camp. all information.
They could only sit back and watch the actions of these ten Khitan warriors, but their own arrangements did not allow them to reveal their identities at the beginning or take action against these enemies who came to contact them, but to make them feel that everything was just like them In this case, they would come to attack at night and fall into Wang Zhongsi's trap.
The chief took out the flint and candle first and lit it carefully. A warrior next to him blocked the light of the candle with his hands so that he would not be discovered by Tang Jun. Then another person picked up the box and The red lens it contained was held up in front of the candle.
At this moment, these Tang soldiers knew what they were doing. It seemed that they were going to send out a colored signal through the lens. Sure enough, the Khitan warrior who covered the candlelight with his hand moved his hand away and quickly covered it. This produced the flickering effect of candlelight, which was emitted five times in total, and then the leader blew out the candlelight. It seemed that this was the reward message they had agreed upon.
Although this candlelight is just a small point of light, to put it bluntly, even if there are other Tang troops on the dock, they may not necessarily notice it, but after all, the Xi Qi Alliance has arranged many people to stare at the dock opposite. , this special red light spot is naturally impossible to miss.
After the signal was given here, it didn't take long for the other side to respond with five flickering candlelights. However, this time the candlelight on the opposite side turned green. It seemed that the same method was used.
After receiving the response, the chief minister breathed a long sigh of relief. He was originally selected as the chief commander of these ten people, but he was still a little worried. After all, he was the vanguard of the night attack on the Tang Army's camp. If there was something What's wrong, my life will be handed over to the other side.
But under the temptation of the huge sum of money, and the huge sense of sufficiency that he could control the actions of the two hundred thousand troops behind him with one hand, he finally arrived at the Tang Army Pier and successfully communicated with the people lurking in the Tang Army camp. The spies completed the connection, and the enemy troops on the dock were killed by these spies, so he encountered no danger. This guy's mission ends here. All he needs to do next is to wait for the cavalry troops of the Xi Qi Allied Forces to rush into the Tang Army camp and start killing, while he and these spies quietly wait for the news of victory at the dock. Just pass it on.
It's just that the Xi Qi coalition's offensive will not be as fast as they expected. They organized their troops in a hurry and sent out contact personnel after getting the signal from the other side. By the time Li Huaixiu confirmed that it was correct and issued the order to cross the river, it was already Yin time. It's time.
After receiving Li Huaixiu's order, from the first formation of the Xi cavalry at the front, a dozen or so troops rushed out. Everyone was big and round, looking very majestic.
On the shoulders of each team, they carried a very long towering tree. The opposite sides of each tree were cut into civilian shapes, and they seemed to be specially dyed black, otherwise the original white wood would be lost in the dark night. Liya was too conspicuous, that would have exposed him.
Seeing that there was still no movement from the Tang army on the other side, it seemed that the tower sentry had also been killed by other spies according to the instructions. Only then did these strong men carry a giant tree into the water, one on the left and the other on the right. Not only were these people as strong as cattle, but they were also very tall. After jumping into the river, they could step on the mud on the river bed with a little splash. But the fatal thing is this short distance, and the buoyancy of the wood is relatively large. Although each giant wood is very heavy, if you want to put the giant wood on the two piers, it still takes some effort. When they got here, they The noise made was a bit loud, but fortunately it still didn't attract Tang Jun's attention. After all, it was already Yinshi, and even the kind of guy who couldn't sleep on weekdays should have fallen asleep deeply. In addition, all the The tower sentry and patrol sentry have been killed. Even if they cause trouble, I am afraid that the Tang army will not make any move.
Of course, this is from the perspective of the Xi Qi Alliance...
The real situation is that there are a large number of Tang troops lurking inside the Tang Army camp and near the main road to the dock. They are all wearing heavy armor, holding Mo Dao, and are waiting in strict formation. Although the Modao Army in Anxi is famous all over the world, and there is no Modao Army in other towns, it is still possible to follow the example. Although these heavy armored infantry have not received strict Modao training, they are used to kill soldiers wearing light armor. I'm afraid it won't take much effort for the Xi Qi coalition cavalry.
Although they could see many Beiyi people in the Sanggan River carrying giant trees and slowly advancing, they felt itchy, but Wang Shuai's military order did not come down for a while, so they could not take any action for a while. This was the Tang Army's military order. Where the wind was strong, and the Xi Qi coalition forces on the opposite side had already finished reorganizing their troops, but an hour had passed now. After seeing that the Tang army did not move, some of the guys in the next few formations dozed off on their horses. This is the fundamental difference between the Tang army and the Beiyi army.
In the commander's tent of the Tang Army's camp, Bai Quan stood on the highest flagpole, staring closely at the movements in the Sanggan River. He was Ye Qingcheng's back-up man arranged here to prepare for any emergencies. Unless Wang Zhongsi's life was in danger or the Tang army's ambush was about to collapse, he would not take action.
The soldiers of Wang Zhongsi below him raised their heads from time to time and glanced at Bai Quan, who was stepping on the tip of the flagpole with only one foot. They felt as if they were living in a dream. Those top martial arts masters rumored in the world, It was now alive in front of their eyes.
Several of them had been to the Xiqi Allied Forces Camp with them before. These guys were bragging to their colleagues in a low voice about their experiences and how powerful Bai Quan was. The more these colleagues listened, the more incredible they became, but he himself Although I could hear the conversation between these guys, there was no big reaction.
