"Four teams, hunting tactics!"
The two thousand people in the night were divided into four teams in a tacit understanding.
They were like a group of wolves that had been planning for a long time, eyeing the migrating sheep and baggage train.
"action!"
"call out--"
A loud arrow.
Four teams of Youyi shot out from four directions at the same time. The bows and arrows in their hands kept pulling, and deadly arrows shot into the unsuspecting Han army.
The advantage of a surprise attack is that it can instantly destroy the morale of an army.
As long as this army is not an elite force, they will collapse immediately when they are suddenly attacked by an enemy.
This was the case with the baggage train at this time.
You Yijun arrived too quietly.
In just such an instant, countless soldiers and civilians fell in the Han army.
The whole baggage train was in chaos.
The crowds were running around uncontrollably.
Even the Han army, which was determined to kill the enemy, could not muster its own troops at this moment.
"Wu Kui! Go and do what the general ordered!"
"Okay! I leave this to you!"
"Come with me!"
The two hundred men followed Wu Kui away from the original direction of attack and turned towards a group of fleeing civilians and soldiers.
"Shoot in the head, try to reduce the blood dripping on the clothes. No, no need, kill them as quickly as possible!"
"promise!"
With two hundred Youyi and Wu Kui, it was easy to hunt down these civilians and soldiers who just wanted to escape.
It didn't take long for Wu Kui and the others to stop hunting.
"Collect clothes quickly!"
Recovering arrows and stripping off clothes, these two hundred people completed these actions extremely quickly.
Then he followed Wu Kui back on horseback and rushed to where Hu Shui was as quickly as possible.
As for Jiewu and others, they wanted to prevent the people from the transport team from escaping to the Han army's center, and buy time for Hu Shui and others.
"Change!"
Hu Shui took hundreds of selected horsemen and changed into the clothes of civilian husbands. Originally, the captains and generals were still trying to dissuade Hu Shui, hoping that they would hand over this dangerous task to them.
But Hu Shui refused.
There is no reason. The general is in front, and the other sergeants must do their best.
This is the most straightforward rule!
"let's go!"
You Yi's army stopped more than ten miles away from the Han army's rear army camp.
Hu Shui got off his horse and took the ring-headed sword of the Han soldiers. He only tied a short steel knife on the outside of his thigh, while on the other side of his thigh there were several paper bags and fire folds.
The riders who changed clothes with him were also dressed in the same way.
His clothes were in tatters and even stained with blood, and he looked like a deserter.
"Hide well and move forward slowly. Once the fire reaches the sky, you will immediately cover up and kill!"
"General, don't worry."
Wu Kui and other captains and generals looked at Hu Shui worriedly and accepted their orders.
Hu Shui nodded and waved his hand, and hundreds of people followed him into hiding into the night.
——
"It's not good, it's not good, take revenge"
Hu Shui appeared in front of the military camp with a panicked expression and a tone of voice that could not conceal his fear.
The garrison soldiers stared at him with great vigilance, and even more so, their crossbows were already aimed at him.
"Stop!"
"What's going on?!"
The garrison officer saw that Hu Shui was dressed as a baggage team going out to transport food tonight.
"Report... report to the leader, the baggage train was attacked by the Huns, and the brothers were killed and dispersed!"
"What!"
The garrison officer's scalp suddenly became numb.
Then he saw several civilians and soldiers like Hu Shui coming in a hurry.
Then he stopped not far behind Hu Shui with a sound of stopping.
"What about you guys?"
"Huhu. Huns, so many Huns!"
The garrison officer still didn't dare to completely believe one person, but now that there were more and more people, he had to believe it even if he didn't believe it.
"You! It's you, come with me to meet the general. Others are not allowed to enter the military camp without orders!"
"Everyone, alert!"
"promise!"
Gradually, at the military stronghold at the forefront of the rear army, more and more civilian soldiers escaped, ranging from a few, to a dozen, to dozens, and gradually to hundreds or hundreds.
The defenders looked nervously behind the escaped civilians and soldiers, fearing that the Huns would come next time.
Hu Shui, on the other hand, followed the garrison officers through the first military stronghold and came to the second one, where they initially speculated that the general was located.
as expected.
As soon as Hu Shui arrived here, he found that the security here was even tighter, there were many cars and horses, and a large amount of grain and grass were piled up and guarded.
"Wait here!"
The garrison officer didn't give Hu Shui a good look, or he couldn't care less about talking to a civilian soldier now.
Entering the tent, Hu Shui waited with his head lowered and his eyebrows lowered, constantly observing this more formidable military stronghold with his peripheral vision.
Not long after, the garrison officer walked out of the tent and shouted to Hu Shui.
"Go in, the general wants to see you, tell him everything you know."
".promise,"
Hu Shui responded nervously.
The officer nodded, opened the curtain of the big tent, and let Hu Shui in.
Afterwards, the officers, like the soldiers outside the big tent, guarded the big tent.
"The common people have met the general."
As soon as he entered the big tent, Hu Shui knelt on the ground tremblingly and kowtowed to the middle-aged man sitting in front of a low table.
"You were attacked by the Huns?"
"Yes,"
"How is the other party dressed? Do you still have an impression of the arrows he used?"
The general's expression was also a little nervous, as he did not want to hear any unwanted news from Hu Shui's mouth.
"Reporting back to the general, the other party is riding big horses that are much taller than the Han army's horses. They have fine armor, but they have arrows."
"Please forgive me, General. The common people really didn't pay attention."
"...They were right."
As soon as the general's expression changed, he pulled out a piece of cloth and started writing. He ignored the Hu Shui underneath and gave instructions immediately after writing.
"Somebody come!"
"Copy a hundred copies of this thing and send it to the central army's tent for General Wei to make a decision. Remember, it must be sent!"
"promise!"
After giving the instructions, the general looked at Hu Shui again and said coldly: "It was a capital crime for you to escape before the battle this time, but seeing that the information you reported was meritorious, the merits and demerits are offset. Let's go down."
".No, thank you General."
The general was too lazy to pay attention to Hu Shui. He stood up and walked to a map with his hands behind his back, his expression uncertain.
".That cavalry."
After leaving the military camp, Hu Shui entered a tent under the leadership of a soldier.
"From now on, you will work in this group and have a good time."
"Oh, thank you, Master Jun."
Hu Shui licked his face and smiled at the soldier.
The soldier ignored him and walked out.
As soon as the soldiers left, several other people in this tent gathered around, wanting to test Hu Shui's story. After all, he was brought here by the general's own soldiers, so his identity must be extraordinary.
Hu Shui had no intention of chatting with them. After dealing with them with a few words, the tent was filled with snoring again.
He pinched the time in his heart that he had been counting silently since before he appeared in the army camp.
Hu Shui waited patiently.
He knew that at this time, he couldn't be impatient.
Gradually, everyone in the military camp fell asleep except for the patrollers.
In front of the front military stronghold, the returning garrison officers also let in the deserters who had gathered in front of the military stronghold.
The wind got colder little by little.
In the night.
Countless people are waiting for that light of fire.
Hu Shui quietly took off his outer clothes, revealing the blue-grey fabric underneath.
He quietly walked out of the military camp, avoiding the gazes of patrollers one after another.
The land of food and grass is even more guarded.
Hu Shui was wasting his time and found an excellent opportunity to duck over and hide himself with the bicycle frame and pile of materials. He carefully took out the cylindrical paper packages from the outside of his thighs.
Tearing off the paper at the top, Hu Shui sprinkled the black powder evenly around the accumulation of grain and grass.
After one is finished, another one is scattered.
It's a pity that he couldn't bring too many in this time, so he only brought five in total.
These things are high-quality flammable materials, and Zhang Qi had shown them carefully when he sent someone to deliver them to him.
That guy was very noisy, not only burning things very quickly, but also emitting violent smoke.
Huo Zhezi was held in Hu Shui's hand and he blew on it for a few times. The bright red fire point was close to the black powder.
Weng——
For a moment.
Black smoke was everywhere.
The pile of grain and hay began to burst into flames.
"It's gone! It's gone!"
The shrill shouts echoed in the night.
