Chapter 731
Chapter 723 The whole army raids

It was midnight, and although it was a warm spring in April, the temperature in the deep mountains was still very low, especially in the dark places, it was extremely cold.

The night sky tonight is very bright and cloudless. Although the moon is not much larger than that of the previous few days, the stars are more shining. Above the night, they are like gems, emitting a bright light.

Du Kang, Fan Xing and his confidantes curled up in a very dark corner, carefully monitoring the situation of the Xixia military camp, not speaking, not even breathing, if they didn't move, they would just walk away from them But they must not be found.

After a long period of silence, a small voice finally broke the silence, and Fan Xing whispered: "Du Kang, why don't you take a rest, and we will take turns to monitor, so that even if there is a problem, we will all have the energy to deal with it. solve."

"You should rest first. Brother Lin must have his reasons for being so nervous. I don't worry about it. You just need to rest well. If there is any abnormality, I will wake you up." Du Kang did not look back, his eyes were bright and energetic, He kept staring at the direction of the Xixia barracks.

Fan Xing heard the words and had to let Du Kang do it. He stretched his waist and said: "Everyone close your eyes and rest for a while, and then we will change people every hour. Everyone must maintain their physical strength and spirit."

"Yes!"

The four were convinced and answered yes, without any hesitation, they closed their eyes without changing their positions, and just fell into sleep like that. Looking at them, it seemed that there was no environment that they could not rest in.

In fact, this is all due to Lin Xiaoyao. At the beginning, Lin Xiaoyao regarded sleeping anywhere and anytime as a training program. It is difficult to have a regular work and rest time when marching and fighting. Therefore, if you want to survive on the battlefield, you must let yourself be able to sleep. Take a quick rest, and then quickly recover your strength.

Ever since, Lin Xiaoyao thought of ways to torture the soldiers of the Xiaoyao Army, letting them sleep in various environments. Those who could not fall asleep within a few breaths would suffer horrible tortures, and then their bodies were exhausted without a trace of strength. , They all fell asleep quickly, and it was Lin Xiaoyao's training that allowed the soldiers to quickly enter a deep sleep, so that they could quickly recover their combat power. This is also the reason why the Xiaoyao Army has a strong ability to run.

"Dukang, you really don't want to take a rest?" Fan Xing still asked without giving up.

Du Kang shook his head, just said: "I'm not at ease."

Fan Xing shrugged helplessly, and said: "Forget it, you come to watch for two hours, and then I will replace you, so you should rest assured, how can you be energetic if you don't rest, in case something really happens, You forgot Brother Lin's order, I don't want to go back with your corpse on my back."

Du Kang thought for a while, finally nodded and said: "Well, you rest first, and then replace me."

"Well, then I'm going to sleep, be careful." Fan Xing tightened the armor on his body, closed his eyes, his breathing quickly calmed down, and the snoring sounded immediately.

When Du Kang saw that several people were asleep, he couldn't help but open his eyes wider. His eyes were dark, shining out the light of stars in the dark night, like an elf at night.

Almost an hour has passed, and the ugly time has come.

"Fan Xing, wake up, Fan Xing, wake up"

Fan Xing was still in a deep sleep when he heard Du Kang's slightly hasty voice. He seemed to have thought of something, and quickly opened his eyes, only to see Du Kang prostrate on the ground, looking at the Xixia military camp without blinking.

"Dukang, what's wrong?"

Fan Xing turned around and, like Du Kang, prostrated himself on the ground, looking at the Xixia military camp.

"There is a problem. Since just now, there have been some noises in the Xixia military camp. I just lay on the ground and heard the neighing of war horses, and there are quite a few of them. According to my estimation, there may be no less than [-] horses!" Du Kang looked cautious. Said.

"What? One hundred thousand horses?"

Fan Xing's drowsiness disappeared in an instant. He never doubted Du Kang's words. Du Kang would say that there were [-] horses, so there were [-] horses.

Du Kang nodded, and said: "Look, there are more torches in the Xixia military camp than before, so I have a bold guess, they are probably counting the number of people..."

"You mean, they want to... attack at night!"

Fan Xing couldn't help but shrink his pupils slightly, and said.

"I'm afraid it's not just a night attack..." Du Kang took a deep breath and said again.

"Hiss... It seems that something big is really going to happen... Everyone, don't sleep, get up quickly..."

Fan Xing took a cold breath, and quickly woke up the other confidantes.

After everyone woke up, Fan Xing said with a solemn expression: "Get ready for the fireworks signal immediately, and then prepare to evacuate, and get ready in your respective positions. Once you find that the fireworks are lit at my place, you will also be in your respective positions." Send a signal, and then quickly evacuate according to the prepared route without any delay."

"Yes, General!"

When the four of them heard this, they all knew that something big was about to happen. This was the retreat route they had prepared before they came, and it was the most dangerous retreat route. Once this way of retreat was adopted, it meant something big would happen.

"Okay, let's go!"

"Yes!"

After the four of them left, Fan Xing breathed a sigh of relief, and he said, "Du Kang, let's prepare too. As soon as they leave the barracks, we will quickly send out a signal and then retreat. There are too many enemies, and the light is a little bright tonight. If they find us, we will really be in trouble."

Du Kang nodded. Although he was cautious and conscientious, it didn't mean he would seek death by himself. As long as he confirmed the enemy's movements, his task would be completed, and retreating safely was the most important thing for them to do.

Not long after, maybe only half a quarter of an hour, the gate of the Xixia barracks opened.

First, the 20 cavalry that shook the ground came out first, and then infantry such as archers and spearmen set off. Fan Xing and Du Kang roughly calculated that the total number of people would be about [-]. How could this be a night attack? , It is clear that they are coming out in full force, are they going to fight Daxia to the death now?

"I can't wait any longer, send a signal!" Fan Xing took a cold breath, let himself calm down for a moment, and said.

Du Kang no longer insisted. After the two of them placed the fireworks and lit them, they saw the fireworks instantly rush into the sky, blooming with their own bright light in the dark night, and emitting light in the empty and lonely night. A voice that echoes through the sky.

The moment the fireworks flew out, the Xixia troops found this place. Tuoba Lie's face darkened, and he hurriedly sent someone to check, but Du Kang and Fan Xing would stay here so stupidly, they had already retreated.

And at this time, in the other four directions, four more fireworks rose into the sky...
