Chapter 378 Shadow

"Don't worry about food and grass. There is a lot of food stored in Jiangzhou City. It was originally used for disaster relief. Because the people rebelled, it was saved." Shen Xianggong said.

"That's good." Song Chaozhong said: "The thieves who attacked the city retreated not long ago. Early tomorrow morning, I will lead my troops to pursue them. If they can be wiped out and some leaders captured, what will happen next? It will be easy to handle. "

"General, don't be careless. The rebels have retreated to the mountains dozens of miles away. They are familiar with the terrain. If the general is careless, they can easily be ambushed," Xianggong Shen reminded.

"Don't worry, Mr. Shen. Even if some ordinary people have weapons and armor, they are not worth it, let alone not even having weapons and armor." Song Chaozhong said indifferently.

It's not that he is arrogant, fighting a war does not require more people.

Some farmers who took up arms were no match for the regular army.

This gap cannot be smoothed out by ambush and calculation.

Even if Bai Qi comes back to life, bringing with him hundreds of thousands of people who lack weapons, they cannot be his opponent.

Shen Xianggong did not think that these rebels would be opponents of the Imperial Forbidden Army, so he only reminded them out of caution.

So I didn't pay much attention to it.

…………

The 50,000 soldiers and horses led by Song Dynasty did not enter the city, but set up camp outside the city.

Although the Song Dynasty Central Committee despised the rebels, they still told their soldiers at night to be careful and guard against them.

Being prepared for camp hijacking can be said to be a required course for ancient military commanders.

Worried about the neglect of the soldiers, the Song Dynasty even conducted several inspections in person.

The soldiers who were assigned to patrol the camp had a hard time traveling and traveling. They wanted to be lazy, but after seeing the general patrolling several times, they did not dare to be lazy anymore and started patrolling seriously.

"General, although there are hundreds of thousands of thieves, they are all ordinary people who are blind at night. How could they come to rob the camp!" Gu Tingwei laughed.

"Have you read the book of war?" Song Chaozhong asked.

"I have read all the military books at home." Gu Tingwei said.

"Don't you understand the meaning of being surprised and unprepared?"

Song Chaozhong said: "The rebels have poor combat effectiveness and lack weapons. The only possibility for them to win is to rob the camp, regardless of the possibility of dealing with the hijacked camp. No matter how old you are, we have to be careful. As long as we don't give the other party a chance, we will be invincible."

"I understand, thank you for your teaching, general!" Gu Tingwei said seriously.

"Just understand." Song Chaozhong nodded and said: "It's getting late. I'll go back and rest first. In the evening, you can lead people to inspect every half an hour."

" Yes!" Gu Tingwei responded.

During the Song Dynasty, they returned to the camp to rest, while Gu Tingwei led a group of soldiers to guard outside.

About half an hour later, Gu Tingwei explained and took a few people to inspect.

It had only been half an hour since the previous patrol in the Song Dynasty. Gu Tingwei inspected a circle and found no slack in the patrolling soldiers.

On the way back, Gu Tingwei suddenly held his stomach and said, "I have a little pain in my stomach. I need to go for a while. You can go back first."

After Gu Tingwei finished speaking, he held his stomach and went to the latrine. run in the direction.

There were 50,000 people in the camp, and some huts were built in several places.

Gu Tingwei did not go to the nearest hut, but to the northwest hut.

Places like latrines are stinky and are usually built on the outermost side of the camp.

Because it is so smelly, even the patrolling soldiers passing by will not look too carefully and just pass by in a hurry.

Gu Tingwei came to the latrine, waited for a while, heard the sound of footsteps going away, and then came out holding his nose.

"The interval between patrols here is about a cup of tea, so we have to hurry up."

Gu Tingwei looked around carefully, and then disappeared into the night.

Carefully touching the Juma area on the edge of the camp, Gu Tingwei climbed onto the Juma in the faint moonlight and jumped hard. The sound of landing was very loud in the darkness. Gu Tingwei rolled forward and lay on the ground without moving.

After waiting for a while and seeing no movement, I carefully identified the direction and chose a direction to walk.

"Who?"

Not long after he left, there was a sudden sound not far behind him. He quickly lay down and shouted.

Waited for a while, but did not hear any response.

"Maybe I'm too nervous."

Gu Tingwei wiped the cold sweat from his face, then stood up and continued walking forward.

But he didn't notice that there seemed to be a figure following him faintly in the darkness behind him.

Gu Tingwei walked a mile or two and came to a big tree and stopped, imitating the calls of birds and calling a few times.

Whoosh~

At this time, the grass not far away made a rustling sound.

"Who!" Gu Tingwei shouted.

"The soul is back!"

A man emerged from the grass and shouted softly.

Gu Tingwei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. Because it was dark, he could only vaguely see that the person who came was short and thin.

"The camp is heavily guarded and the chance of successfully hijacking the camp is very small." Gu Tingwei said.

The thin man was a little disappointed when he heard this and said: "Then we can only go without food."

"Have you forgotten that there is food for disaster relief in Jiangzhou City? Today Xianggong Shen said that the food for disaster relief in the city is enough to feed the army for half a month." Gu Tingwei reminded.

"Of course we know this, but it's all a matter of fire." said the thin man.

"Are you crazy?" Gu Tingwei said anxiously: "Set fire to burn food in the city. Once the fire breaks out, the government will seal the city and there is no way to escape."

"Haha." The thin man laughed when he heard this. He said: "Rebellion is a crime against the nine tribes. Is arson a bigger crime than rebellion?"

"If you really want to involve me, I will confess you." Gu Tingwei sneered.

"Don't worry, not many people know about your existence. Even if something happens, you won't be involved." The thin man said.

"That's good." Gu Tingwei nodded and said: "Don't forget what you promised me, when this matter is over, you will rescue my mother. If you dare to lie to me, I will report you. "

"Don't worry, we may be able to do what we promised Mr. Gu. After all, we are very happy to cooperate, and we want to continue to cooperate." The thin man said with a smile.

"I have to go back first, otherwise I will be in trouble if someone notices me." Gu Tingwei said.

"Yeah." The thin man nodded.

After Gu Tingwei left, the thin man stood there for a while before leaving.

After about a cup of tea, a figure stood up on the ground not far away.

This man looked around and did not follow Gu Tingwei back to the camp. Instead, he went directly to Jiangzhou City.

At this time, the city gate of Jiangzhou City was closed, so naturally he could not enter the city and could only hide.

When it got slightly brighter and there were already some people waiting to enter the city outside the city, he appeared, mixed in with the people entering the city, waited for the city gate to open, and entered the city.

This man came directly to the post station and said to the soldiers guarding the door of the post station: "I have been ordered by General Song to see Mr. Shen in an urgent matter!"

The soldiers guarding the door of the post station did not dare to delay and quickly went in to report. After a while, people were brought in.
