Battlefield of All Sides

Chapter 83 Xin Qiji's Strategy

In the dark night, a horse snorted suddenly, and Li Mu became a little nervous, loosened the rein in his hand a little, and then looked up at the camp with sparks in the distance.

The fifty or so people led by Xin Qiji were already moving slowly at this moment. There was a small river in front of them. The water flow was not very fast, but fortunately the water was loud, and the rushing sound could cover up the sound of everyone's movements.

This was the first time Li Mu participated in this kind of night raid, and it was also the first time that he followed such a small number of people to raid the enemy's camp.

In the past, it wasn't that there were scenes of winning more with less, but it was also fighting with a regiment of tens of thousands of people. No matter how many people on my side were sufficient, but the special ratio of these fifty people to tens of thousands of people, absolutely It is a rare encounter.

After all, the system's words about the injury feedback on the body in the real world always made Li Mu feel a little burdened. So even if he believed that Xin Qiji would not die, it would definitely be safer to follow him, but Li Mu didn't know what would happen to him.

At this time, Li Mu finally became worried about issues related to his real life. Suddenly he realized that he had relaxed his guard against this system, but in fact, his life was always in its hands.

Li Mu grinned, and slandered in his heart, but he hurriedly brought his attention back to the front, because at this time the team had already started going down the river. Although it was summer, the horses were still a little bit uncomfortable with this kind of passive going down the river. resist.

The variegated horse under Li Mu's crotch was even more so. Not only did it not obey Li Mu's order, but when it got to the river, it stopped by itself and lowered its head to drink water.

Li Mu clamped the horse's belly several times but he couldn't see it moving, and he didn't dare to whip the horse's ass here, so he was in a dilemma at the moment.

The quality of this horse is really too bad, not only has no stamina, but also can't run fast, more importantly, this kind of horse doesn't obey orders at all, it is completely different from the military horses I have ridden in the past.

But it was such a horse, and my companions said that it was already considered a good horse, and it was a horse that could be pulled into the battlefield.

Li Mu really couldn't say anything. After all, the Southern Song Dynasty was indeed deficient in some places. It lost a lot of places where horses could be raised, which naturally led to uneven quality of horses.

Li Mu urged by the river for a while, and when the surrounding horses were almost going down the river, the miscellaneous horse Li Mu was riding finally moved, and under Li Mu's urging, he stepped into the river reluctantly.

When the horses stepped into the river, Li Mu immediately found that his shoes were wet. The river was not too deep, and the current was not too fast, but the horses had a little difficulty walking.

Li Mu did not dare to rush this unruly horse, so he could only follow the team from time to time and move forward silently.

The flames of the distant camp could be seen more clearly. Seeing that the people around him took out their half-hidden weapons, Li Mu also drew out his hand knife that was deliberately smeared with black ash.

Li Mu looked up and saw Xin Qiji at the front of the team, who was about to cross the river. Li Mu gritted his teeth, remembered the opponent's position, and made up his mind to follow Xin Qiji when he got ashore. .

The team carefully climbed to the other side of the river amidst the sound of flowers and flowing water in the black sky. Everyone gathered by the river, and Li Mu also quickly rode to Xin Qiji's side.

Xin Qiji just glanced at Li Mu, and then whispered something to another man beside him.

Then the three got off their horses and carefully moved towards the enemy camp.

Li Mu looked at the situation and judged that something must be done.

It's just that it's not easy for Li Mu to ask Xin Qiji at such a time. Li Mu can only look at the direction of the camp vigilantly. The surrounding trees have been cut down, but the small slope here can also provide some shelter for these people. Some body shapes.

After those three people went out, the others were all ready to wait here, and only waited for Xin Qiji to issue an order, they rushed into the camp and arrested the traitor.

Time seems to pass very slowly at this moment, and Li Mu, who is highly concentrated, can't even hear the sound of running water around him, and only feels his heart beating strongly.

But at this moment, there was a sudden disturbance in the quiet camp.

A few unclear shouts came, Li Mu raised his ears to listen carefully, and finally heard a word in it.

It's gone.

In ancient times, if the water leaked, it would catch fire!

Li Mu was shocked immediately, stood up on his horse and looked forward, only to see the flames of several braziers in the camp fell to the ground, and a trace of flames rolled into a tent, and the soldiers inside were rushing out. The other soldiers rushed out from the gate of the camp with their things in a panic, preparing to fetch water from the river not far to the right of Li Mu.

This was an opportunity. The people inside were in chaos, and many people ran out to fetch water. At this time, they probably would not notice the whereabouts of the people they were waiting for.

Li Mu came to this conclusion in his mind. He sat on the horse, tightened the stirrups, and took a few steps forward with the horse's belly between his legs. However, he was blocked by Xin Qiji.

"Young master..." Li Mu said, a little anxious, and hoped that Xin Qiji would send everyone out quickly.

The people around him were also a little anxious at this moment. They all pulled the reins of their horses, but they all looked at Xin Qiji. They all maintained restraint and did not move forward immediately.

"It's not yet time. This is a big camp. We need to make the people in charge inside panic." Xin Qiji said calmly, with an unusually calm expression. He just squinted to see that the fire in the distance was getting brighter.

Li Mu waited patiently for a while, and the camp in the distance was even more ablaze, and not only one or two places, but several places in the camp were ablaze.

The fire was bigger than before, just as a gust of wind blew by again, and several tents continued to be rolled up, screams began to come from the camp, Li Mu saw more soldiers rushing out of the camp, but at this time Many of them have begun to carry weapons.

"My lord!" Li Mu saw that the soldiers were not only putting out the fire, but also defending the surrounding areas. At the moment, he felt that the plan had failed. The people inside not only reacted, but also started to guard the surrounding areas.

But Xin Qiji was not in a hurry at all, instead he forced everyone not to move, the flames in the distance were even worse, gradually Li Mu realized something was wrong.

The soldiers seemed to have noticed something, but they were looking at the northwest corner, which was almost opposite to where they were.

But at this moment, a figure rolled and ran quickly, and several people quickly raised their knives, but that person hurriedly said something, and the surrounding people immediately put down their guard, and Li Mu could also tell that he had just passed by here one of the three.

"Mr. Document, Ge Dan took Ermao to the west, and someone from the camp has already chased him."

"Okay!" At this moment, Xin Qiji shouted loudly, then his gaze finally changed, and he drew out the knife in his hand.

"Brothers, it's now, follow Big Niu brothers, we rush into the enemy's camp!"

Xin Qiji said loudly, everyone around him looked excited, Li Mu also suddenly realized at this moment.

Xin Qiji in front of him had actually already done the calculations. He first used the fire attack to make the whole camp commotion, and at this time the bait he sent out exposed the position, making the person in charge think that he was in that direction, whether he knew it was the direction or not. He had to mobilize some troops to chase the bait there.

The remaining troops had to undertake defense and fire fighting, and now the inside was in a mess. In the dark night, they had already created a feeling of uneasiness for themselves.

Attacking at this time is definitely the easiest way to break into the camp.

Li Mu's eyes flashed, and he stopped thinking about anything at the moment, pulled the rein of the horse, and followed Xin Qiji to attack.

The sound of horseshoes sounded around, and Li Mu unconsciously lowered his figure, watching the flickering fire in front of him, getting brighter and brighter.
