It has been three hours since the rebellion started, and half the day has passed.
What Su Yonglin is most concerned about now is whether the defensive guard Meng An knows something and whether he has made any special moves.
No matter what, Su Yonglin felt that the most important thing was to eliminate the defensive force.
It's just that Su Yonglin didn't have much confidence at the beginning. He wanted to use relatively simple opponents to train the new recruits, see their blood, and hone their mental endurance.
Now that the goal of practicing and seeing blood has been achieved, the morale of the rebel soldiers is high, and it is time to challenge slightly higher-level opponents.
Otherwise, the opponents will all be such losers, and the rebels will never grow.
It's okay to deal with these decadent defense forces, but when they encounter the Jin Kingdom's main force of heavy cavalry in the future, they will definitely be defeated.
It seems that something should be done.
While Su Yonglin was thinking this, Su Haisheng and Su Jue suddenly came to him together.
"Alang, we have an idea."
Su Yonglin looked at the two of them.
"What do you think? Tell me."
"That's it, about the security guard."
Su Haisheng frowned and said, "A Jue and I both feel that time is tight. Maybe we should do something else tonight."
Su Yonglin looked up at the dark sky with no moon visible, feeling the gentle breeze blowing.
"Alang, Haisheng and I both feel that we don't necessarily want the Jin people to know about it, but the commotion in the county is too big. The Jin people in the surrounding areas may already know about it or take action. We shouldn't wait like this. We must Do something.”
Su Jue said so.
Su Yonglin looked at Su Jue and then at Su Haisheng.
"do what?"
"Night attack."
Su Haisheng said: "Yong'an Village is only a dozen miles away from the Zhenfang Meng'an Camp. It won't take long for us to rush there. The Jin people will definitely not think that we will rush at night, and they may not even know about our existence. We If we take the opportunity to eat it, the biggest danger in Linyi County will be gone."
Su Jue nodded repeatedly.
"Alang, this is a good opportunity. If we wait until dawn, we don't know what will happen, but as long as we kill this defensive force, we will take the initiative."
Su Yonglin was silent for a while, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
"You have grown up, and I have not spent all my time on you in vain."
"Alang, what do you mean..."
The two looked at Su Yonglin happily.
"What's the most important thing about a night raid?"
"the most important?"
Su Jue and Su Haisheng looked at each other.
"Elite soldiers?"
"hidden?"
"It's preparation!"
Su Yonglin shook his head angrily: "You know about the night attack, but the Jin people don't know about it? Are the Jin people unprepared? Every elite soldier sets up a camp. Every night, not only do they have to send rangers to wander ten miles away from the camp to search for the enemy, but they also have to leave the camp for ten miles to search for the enemy. Keep fierce dogs to prevent being attacked at night.
The camp itself also has a watchtower, and there are elite soldiers responsible for night patrols in response to night attacks. There are even external camps and main camps set up to form horns with each other. Are you so sure that we can avoid all sneak attacks? "
When Su Yonglin said this, Su Jue and Su Haisheng were stunned.
After a while, Su Jue hesitated and said, "Then, forget it?"
"What kind of?"
Su Yonglin rolled his eyes: "I'm talking about elite soldiers setting up camps, not this town defense army camp! These town defense troops are so corrupt that they use all the military dogs they are issued to drink. Do you expect them to be able to deal with night attacks? What preparations?"
This is not just something Su Yonglin said out of hand.
Zhao Kaishan told him that when An Zhen used to play with him, he would be accompanied by several officers from the Suppression Army. When these officers were in a mood to drink, they would occasionally complain to him about the corruption of the Suppression Army. Such as gambling, drinking, going to the county town to play and staying out all night, killing all the military dogs assigned to eat meat, and other bad things. They also said that there was no military training at all and it was all improvised.
How can an army of such quality be prepared for a night attack in a place where there has been no war for more than ten years?
After hearing Su Yonglin's words, Su Jue and Su Haisheng suddenly became happy.
"Alang, let's... take action?"
"Nonsense! Of course we act!"
Su Yonglin grinned and immediately started making arrangements.
First, an elite advance team was sent to search for the enemy in the direction of the defense army barracks to check the situation.
Although the Jin Army's defense force is indeed extremely corrupt, they cannot be completely ignored. If there is a sentry or something, the entire plan will face huge risks.
After all, this group of people are professionals. Compared with the rebels who have just embarked on the professional road, they should still have some combat effectiveness.
At this stage, Su Yonglin cannot bear the risk of failure.
That's right, this is the time to work hard to expand your advantages and initiative. When fighting on the battlefield, what you are fighting for is a situation between the two sides, and what you are fighting for is an initiative.
For the sake of the initiative, it doesn't matter if you rest a little later. The rebels are absolutely weak. Anything that can improve the survival rate must be done!
Since it is a night attack, there cannot be too many people, and the weaker peasant soldiers will not be brought along.
Su Yonglin selected 500 more physically fit veterans of the Su family as the night attack commando team, which he personally led to go to the night attack town to defend the Meng'an camp.
Leave the remaining troops to Su Haisheng. After resting early tomorrow morning, they can look for opportunities to attack the remaining villages. As for how to operate, Su Haisheng can decide.
"Alang, do you really leave it to me to decide?"
"Teach you how to read and let you learn skills just for today. If you are a idiot and can't stand up to the challenge, find out as soon as possible and get out of here so I can replace you with someone new!"
Su Yonglin patted Su Haisheng's head angrily.
"I will definitely win the battle!"
Su Haisheng said immediately.
"That's pretty much it."
Su Yonglin nodded.
After everything was arranged, Su Yonglin let the veterans rest for an hour, and then they all gathered and headed towards the defensive camp.
After half a day of continuous battles, many Jin men were killed. Now the morale of the whole team is very high. Although the body is tired, the spirit is very full. When marching, it feels like a "woo woo woo" train that is advancing rapidly. Full of energy.
Of course Su Yonglin was happy about this, but he was definitely not optimistic enough to feel that victory had come.
No, this is just the first step in a long march of thousands of miles, and victory is still far away.
And the six victories during the day, to put it bluntly, were all surprise attacks and the Jin people were really useless, not to mention the rebels had more people.
The right time, the right place, the right people, and all the people are concentrated on the rebel army. If they cannot win, the uprising will not need to continue.
The rebels did not fight against the Jin's regular army, nor did they engage in field battles face to face, nor did they actually engage in battles between armies.
And if they want to defeat the main military force of the Jin people, sooner or later they will have to start a real face-to-face duel with the Jin people.
They need to face the fierce impact of the most powerful heavy cavalry of the Jin people, and they need to persevere under their powerful main attack, and even win the counterattack.
That was the time when the Kingdom of Jin could truly be overthrown.
But now, it's far from enough.
