Stand-in eunuch: I pamper the harem for the emperor

Chapter 348 people are tired and horses are tired
Nangong Wuhen frowned, obviously thinking about whether this matter could be done?

After all, he had never commanded such a large army to fight before mobilizing hundreds of thousands of troops to attack the Lu family army in the dark.

"General Situ, I will give you a 20-strong army. How about you sneak attack on the Lu family's army?"

Nangong Wuhen said in a deep voice.

"Okay! 20 vs. 12. Our army is waiting for work, so we have a great chance of winning."

General Situ said with great joy.

"In that case, General Situ must have already figured out how to sneak attack?"

Nangong Wuhen asked with a smile.

"Your Highness, the general thought that we would set out at midnight tonight, divide our troops into four groups, quietly surround Yulin Village where the Lu Family Army is located, and launch an attack at about midnight..."

General Situ briefly explained his strategy.

There is no problem at all for an army of 20 to surround a small Yulin village.

This small village is located on the Qiannan Plain. Once the cavalry launches a charge, it will be impossible to resist it.

In addition, the Lu family army was exhausted on an expedition and was short of men and horses. How could it withstand the impact of the 20-strong army?

Faced with such a tempting plan, Nangong Wuhen made a prompt decision and immediately gave General Situ full authority to command tonight's night attack.

Yulin Village is just a small village. Perhaps because of the arrival of the Sui Empire's army, dozens of people in the village all fled north to escape.

Today's Yulin Village is an empty village.

There are large elm forests to the east and south of Yulin Village. After Lu Jiajun arrived here, he immediately chose to set up camp in the woods.

In the evening, after everyone had dinner, they all went to rest.

Lu Hao's Chinese army tent was set up on a hillside in the south. At this time, he was convening the top brass of the Lu family army to analyze the battlefield situation.

The two main legions of the new army led by Xuanyuan Lingyu and Liu Ruxu, and the newly integrated [-] cavalry led by Dong Xiaojun, can be regarded as the largest and most powerful cavalry legion in the empire.

Although the two main legions only number 2 people, they possess advanced thermal weapons such as long and short rifles, fireball bombs and kerosene bombs, and their combat effectiveness and lethality are unquestionable.

Situ Tianyin brought more than 2 people with General Mei Chao just to provide enough armaments and materials for the two main armies.

Judging from the information that Wu Qingyu can collect now, the enemy has set up camp on the east side of Xiangfan City, waiting for subsequent siege materials.

40 troops, white tents stretching for dozens of miles, plus bonfires at night, are densely packed, like stars under the sky.

"Reporting to the Prime Minister, the soldiers are resting where they are, and the horses are being fed on the spot. Spies have been sent out to pay close attention to the enemy's movements..."

Wu Qingyu shouted back.

"Three generals, we are exhausted on this expedition and are now exhausted. Therefore, I am letting the soldiers rest and sleep in preparation for the upcoming war."

Lu Hao glanced at the three generals.

"Prime Minister, we are resting now, will the enemy take the opportunity to sneak attack on us?"

Xuanyuan Lingyu asked loudly.

"We don't know yet, but if the enemy attacks us secretly, they will definitely mobilize a large number of troops. Our spies ambushing in front should have enough time to notify us."

Lu Hao looked confident.

"In that case, can we sneak attack them in the middle of the night?"

Liu Ruxu interjected.

"General Liu's proposal is very good, but the soldiers are now exhausted and need adequate rest to avoid losing more than the gain."

Lu Hao decisively refused.

"Prime Minister, if the enemy makes a sneak attack, how will we defend ourselves?"

Dong Xiaojun asked.

"To be honest, this Yulin Village, except for this forest, is completely invincible. If we really want to defend, we can only rely on kerosene bombs to form a wall of fire."

Lu Hao looked helpless.

The Qiannan Plain is an endless plain, with an occasional hillside which is pretty good.There are criss-crossing small streams here, which finally merge with the Chishui River from the north to form the vast Liuyang River, which passes diagonally eastward through Liuyang City and finally flows into the Qiannanhai.

Originally, there were several small streams flowing into Xiangfan City, and a moat was built. However, it is now the dry season in winter, and the moat is completely useless.

If there were only a moat, Xiangfan City would be better defended.

"Prime Minister, please rest assured. If the enemy troops mobilize on a large scale, the spies will send fireworks messages to ensure that the enemy's movements are known as soon as possible."

Wu Qingyu promised.

"Prime Minister, how about I sneak into the enemy's camp and see if I can collect some more useful information?"

Situ Tianyin took the initiative to ask for help.

She is a ninth-grade master with excellent light skills. She sneaked into the enemy camp to find out information at night. Even if she was discovered, she would not be able to keep her.

"Okay, I'll go with you."

Lu Hao was still a little worried about her.

After all, he is now a ninth-level master, and he has a pistol for self-defense, as well as poisonous smoke bombs and other weapons, which is enough to come and go freely.

"Prime Minister, there are 40 enemy troops. No matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still in danger."

Xuanyuan Lingyu stood up and objected.

"Don't worry, the truth is not to engage in assassination, but to gather information."

Lu Hao comforted with a smile.

"Prime Minister, if possible, we can kill Nangong Wuhen. By then, the 40-strong army will be leaderless, and we can take advantage of the opportunity to attack..."

Situ Tianyin had a strange thought.

"If you want to assassinate, you have to wait for the soldiers to regain their spirits, preferably after dawn... We are going to find out the news this time, and it seems there is no need to engage in such a big battle..."

Lu Hao groaned.

"Okay, I'll listen to you, I'm just asking for information."

Situ Tianyin also felt that it was better to be cautious.

Now that they had decided to explore the enemy camp at night, Lu Hao and Situ Tianyin put on their night clothes, started their Qinggong and flew towards the south.

Now Lu Hao has been able to display about [-]% of the strength of the "Huan Tian Yu Feng Jue". It would be as difficult as climbing to the sky to catch him.

After more than 20 miles, the two of them saw the endless enemy camp in less than a quarter of an hour.

The camp that stretches for dozens of miles is densely covered with stars, like stars falling on an astrolabe.

"Judging from the handsome flag in the camp, Nangong Wuhen should be there."

Lu Hao pointed to the Chinese army tent in the middle.

"That camp is also the largest. Even if it's not Nangong Wuhen, it's General Situ's camp."

Situ Tianyin also deeply agreed.

"Tianyin, you stay here to pick me up, I'll go in alone."

Lu Hao said.

"How about that? I want to go in with you."

Situ Tianyin insisted.

"Tianyin, to tell you the truth, I have already practiced the most powerful Qing Gong in the world. I can guarantee that I will not be discovered. However, it is difficult to say what you said."

Lu Hao smiled and told frankly.

"Have you practiced the "Huantian Wind Control Technique"?"

Situ Tianyin said in surprise.
