Chapter 16 Good friends with Jack Hugh
In Hongyan City, the Taini army carried out a large-scale personnel transfer, and the whole barracks were making new deployments in an orderly manner.
The First Division of the First Army has set out from the north gate of Hongyan City and rushed directly to the bank of the Hongyan River, preparing to build fortifications there to defend the battle of Shenhua Empire.
10,000 civilians from the former Guangning Province accompanied by the First Division have now been reduced to slavery. Their task is to take tools and dig out dozens of parallel long pits in the flat grass corridor by the Hongyan River, and then connect with the Hongyan River to bring water.
Dozens of long pits separate the flat grass leading to Hongyan City from each other, and the distance between the pits is just 1 meter to accommodate a person to walk on it. If you are riding a horse, you will be sorry and will definitely fall into the long pit full of water.
Todani put his troops on the gentle hillside, which can serve as a purpose of monitoring the changes of the opposite Shenhua. Second, it can also help to combat the Shenhua soldiers who came to the flat corridor dug up after crossing the river.
Because of the response of the First Division, the scouts of the Taini Army also went out to patrol. A group of 100 people rode horses and walked along the Hongyan River, closely watching the movements of the Shenhua Empire.
The Shenhua Empire has built ten shipbuilding bases on the bank of the Red Rock River. There are mountains nearby, and the trees on the mountain are also very tall and numerous. Ten shipyards only make some simple wooden boats, and one ship carries 50 people. The hull is 15 meters long and seven meters wide, and the head and stern are as straight as knives. After ten days of crazy construction, about 1,000 ships have been built.
The ten shipyards of the Shenhua Empire had a large-scale river crossing posture. Next to the shipyard, 10 divisions also began to be stationed, which were used to transport troops to the other side, and the 10th army attacked Hongyan City at the same time.
Naturally, the reconnaissance team of the Thai army has always focused on these 10 shipyards. On the other side of the 10 shipyards, people are observing all day long. Once they find the Shenhua army to appear and start boarding the ship, they will immediately burn the peak fire next to it and convey the information.
Li Xiaobai was ordered to kill the scouts of the Taini army. This time, he came to the sky and found that Taney had changed his reconnaissance method and patrolled collectively with 100 as a team. There was no need to fight desperately. Although he could kill the 100-person team, Taini sent another 100-man team and did it himself. Things are meaningless.
Since he was not interested in killing scouts, Li Xiaobai thought of doing another thing by himself. He thought of Jack Hugh's 1,000-person battalion, which should have sneaked into the area where the Taini army's cavalry was stationed. He could go and join in the fun.
Jack Hugh received the marshal's order, but at first he couldn't figure out whether his battalion was not only ridiculed by other battalion soldiers, but now even the marshal looked down on his battalion and became the target of public criticism. Later, after thinking about it, he found that the marshal let himself a battalion to defeat a legion-level cavalry. There was no doubt that the marshal wanted to establish a great achievement in this battalion and completely clean up the title of his escape camp. And such an important task is given to my camp, which is to fully trust the strength of my camp.
Jack Hugh got excited as soon as he figured out the problem. The grievances suffered during this period suddenly dissipated and resurrected.
After three days of arduous sneaking, he endured hunger in the mountains and despite fatigue, and finally came to the grass valley area where the Taini cavalry was stationed.
Grass Valley, as the name implies, is a dense valley where grass grows. In fact, it is not a valley, but there are many mountains around, and this area is relatively low, so it is called grass valley.
The grass valley is also like its name. The warm mountains are full of grass, and they are all grasses that horses like. The surrounding water vapor is rich and the light is sufficient, so even if these grass is eaten on the first day, they will sprout on the third day. It can be said that this is a natural horse farm, which is also the reason why Tyni occupied Red Rock City, but 100,000 cavalry were stationed in the Grass Valley.
Gras Valley presents a rectangular terrain. In the east is Hongyan City, in the west is a vast alpine area, and there is a mountain road leading to Hukou Pass, so this is a key response place for the Taini army.
A camp of Jack Xiu lurks in the mountains south of the Grass Valley, which is also complex and sparsely populated, which is very suitable for these 1,000 people to hide and secret activities.
On the first day when Jack Hugh arrived at the Grass Valley, he was not in a hurry to sprinkle weak powder, but personally ran to a hill in the middle of the Grass Valley and observed the time of the Taini cavalry to raise horses and the range and regularity of the activities of the stallions.
Tani's horses are raised three times a day, 7 a.m., 12 noon and 5 p.m., and special logistics soldiers take 100,000 horses to the surrounding grassy places to eat grass. Because the grass in the grass valley grows too fast, the range of grass-eating activities of this herd does not need to be too far. On the first day, eating grass around a mountain can almost satisfy the appetite of these 100,000 horses. They only eat the grass on three hills in a day. The next day, they run a little farther and eat grass on three hills. After about five days, the horses can come to the mountain again to eat grass on the first day.
With these data, Jack Hugh naturally has a solution.
There are four good brothers who live and die together under Jack Hugh, which are stone, hairy head, blackhead and bald head. They are too familiar with it. They usually use such a name, but they don't remember their real names, and the soldiers in this battalion usually call these four people like this.
Jack Hugh and his four brothers took 200 people respectively. According to the reconnaissance information obtained in advance, they went to five places for activities. They did not go out during the day and went out at night. On the first day, Jack took 200 people with him the night before yesterday to sprinkle weak powder on the surrounding hills, while the other four teams were still sleeping. The next day, Lunshi took his team to the surrounding hills to sprinkle powder, and the other four teams were inactive. By analogy, it can effectively use the powder, reduce everyone's fatigue, and really let Teni's 100,000 horses eat the weak powder.
Three days have passed since Jack's suspension of camp. After Li Xiaobai got the consent of Tagomi, he came to find Jack to rest.
Now that Taini's Sikawi swordsman is dead, Li Xiaobai's own land in the air. Li Xiaobai sat on the back of the golden eagle and flew over the grass valley. Of course, this height is high enough for the people below to see the golden eagle clearly. Otherwise, it will undoubtedly tell Taini's people that I, Li Xiaobai, am scouting. Your cavalry.
Li Xiaobai's spiritual sense has reached 8 kilometers away, but in the air, he still can't beat the eyes of the golden eagle, so it still depends on the golden eagle to find the trace of Jack's camp.
circling, what the golden eagle is doing now, and at the same time, the carving eyes keep scanning the forest below, hoping that Jack Hugh and the others can come out to move and find their specific location. What makes the golden eagle depressed is that Jack Hugh and others absolutely lie under the forest during the day and will not walk around at will.
"Dapeng, find a hill and let me go down." Li Xiaobai couldn't find the golden eagle. As soon as he thought about it, he understood what was going on. It seemed that he still needed to sweep the ground by himself.
The golden eagle sent Li Xiaobai to a high mountain north of Caogu, and then flew away by itself.
Li Xiaobai decided that Jack's camp must be around the Grass Valley. This grass valley is only about 20 kilometers. From north to south, and then from east to west, with his 8 kilometers of sensing power, he should soon find Jack Hugh's hiding place.
With super spiritual sensitivity and unparalleled light skills, Li Xiaobai is still swaggering in the grass valley in this sunny day. Anyway, when he finds someone approaching, he can temporarily avoid it and continue to look for Jack Xiu.
It's very relaxed. When Li Xiaobai came to the Central Plains area of Caogu, he sensed the breath of the 1,000 people. Looking at their motionless appearance, it must be Jack's camp.
Locking Jack Hugh's breath, Li Xiaobai immediately ran to the easternmost mountain, where it was the 200-person ambush led by Jack Hugh.
Jack Hugh and his brothers are very relaxed in the mountain, because there is no task during the day, so they can rest in the mountain. Generally, 10 people pay attention to all directions. Others can sleep and look at the sky quietly, but they must not throw out the fighting spirit casually, which is related to the lives of the whole camp.
Li Xiaobai ran up from the foot of the mountain, and the person staring at the whistle in the dark did not come out to stop him. When Li Xiaobai went far away, he went in another direction to inform his brothers and intercept the man in white who trude on the mountain together.
Jack Hugh was anxious when he heard the sentry's report. Was he found that he was surrounded by 100,000 cavalry?
Jack Hugh called up the number 200 and walked together in the direction of the man in white.
"Raise your hand, or you will die!" Jack Hugh surrounded Li Xiaobai and immediately shouted.
Li Xiaobai was not nervous at all. He glanced at 200 people with a smile and said with a smile, "Jack Hugh, I'm the contact sent by Marshal Tegomi."
Jack Hugh listened and suddenly relaxed. He could call out his name directly. That must be his own person, but for the sake of insurance, he still needs to verify it.
"Can there be tokens?"
Li Xiaobai took out a token from his arms and lost it.
Jack Hugh took over the token, which was the marshal's special messenger token, so he completely believed Li Xiaobai.
"Does the marshal have a new order?" Jack asked hesitantly.
"Haha, no, as long as you abolish Taini's 100,000 cavalry, it will be the greatest credit." Li Xiaobai smiled.
"What's the matter with the messenger coming here?" Jack Hugh was suspicious.
Li Xiaobai only left an impression on Jack Hugh from what happened in the barracks and has always wanted to attract him to his side. This time, the first is to help Jack Hugh complete the task better. The second is to establish a relationship with Jack Hugh so that it is convenient to contact him later. The third is to avoid Siddiman and Jonini. The two girls are now staying in the marshal's camp all day long and have something to ask themselves if they have nothing to do. I'm afraid of being in love for a long time.
"Brother Jack Hugh, don't call me the messenger or something, just call me Li Xiaobai. I'm here to help you. I have a golden eagle pet. I think I can help you. Li Xiaobai said seriously.
Flighting pet? Jack Hugh and 200's men looked at Li Xiaobai in surprise. After all, they left the barracks early and did not see Li Xiaobai and Jindiao landing in the barracks.
