The path of the villain is not easy

Chapter 147 Actions in the Dark Night
Because he felt that what Changsun Ji said was very reasonable, and he also had a premonition in his heart that something would happen tonight.

That's why he made first-hand preparations.

As time slowly slides, it has come to the ugly time at night, and this time is considered the time when people are most likely to feel sleepy.The soldiers patrolling the river were not as energetic as before.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the river.Groups of grain troops stood there in line.In the center, Li Chuang, the leader of the grain army, asked a middle-aged Confucian scholar who was looking at the river: "What do you think the chances of success for this trip are?"

"At first, we didn't see the purpose of the Yan army clearly, and we wasted a lot of time, but it's not too late now. Since the Yan army is suspicious in the city, if it's not as I expected, there won't be too many defense troops by the river. .Isn’t that what the spies you sent reported?”

Li Chuang nodded.

Then, he ordered to the left and right: "Let's act, let the scouts dive over. Prepare for the army to cross the river."

"Obey." The messenger led the order and walked towards the river.

Following the order, a row of black-clothed soldiers standing by the river jumped into the river with a bow.

As the saying goes: "Eat mountains by the mountains, and drink water by the water." Cangting, as a city close to the river, was captured by the Liang army. It is not difficult for the Liang army to gather a group of soldiers with good water skills.

Food is life now, and when life is almost gone, the common people will still care whether you are a master of the king or a bandit.Whoever sits in this world has no effect on them.As long as the food is given, it will serve you.

They were all carefully selected by Li Chuang from all the soldiers.Others dare not say, but the water properties are very powerful.

Compared with last night's wind and waves, today's river has become very calm. Although the entire river flows continuously along the river, the speed of flow is quite slow.

As the men in black plunged into the river, Li Chuang's eyes also turned to the dark place on the other side of the river.

Li Liang was one of the men in black who crossed the river. He was originally a fisherman begging for a living in the river. In the village where he lived, there were either fishermen or boatmen soliciting passengers. They were more familiar with this river than their own home.

The common people are the group of people who are most easily satisfied. He has no desires, and all his life he wants to find a wife, have a child, and live a stable life.

But God doesn't allow it, natural disasters continue, this year's drought, the river has stopped flowing, and I have no livelihood, so I can only help to do some part-time jobs to support myself.

Not long ago, the Liang army captured Cangting. I heard that they recruited soldiers to take care of the food.He joined the army without saying a word, and now it's not that he just wants the army, he has been screened through layers, but fortunately he has a strong body and good water skills.It went very smoothly and entered the grain army.

Here, after several days of training, tonight, he and several fellow countrymen were asked to put on black clothes and cross the river to prepare for the army to cross the river.

After crossing the big river, Li Liang dragged his wet body from the water and slowly climbed up to the bank.Taking advantage of the darkness, he pulled out the dagger from his waist and lay down on the ground to hide.

As the patrolling soldiers approached, his teammates stood behind them, suddenly got up, and threw a soldier to the ground beside him.Watching the companions beside him rushing out one by one.

He gritted his teeth and slowly moved forward from the ground, crawling close to a patrol soldier, then stood up from the ground, strangled the patrol soldier's neck with his arms from behind, and inserted the dagger in his hand into the patrol soldier's neck. soldier's chest.Then slowly dragged into the river.

His arm was already bruised due to tension, and the dagger in his other hand kept thrusting back and forth into the soldier's chest.

After an unknown amount of time, he felt that the soldier in his hand gradually lost his struggle, so he breathed a sigh of relief and let go of the hand that was strangling the soldier's neck.

Although this was his first time to kill someone, he didn't feel afraid. Apart from being nervous, he felt that there was still a kind of pleasure in his heart.

He looked at the shore exhausted. At this time, his companions on the shore had already dealt with the rest of the patrol team. After all, not all of his companions were new recruits like him.

A companion in black came over and pulled him out of the water, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Let's kill someone for the first time."

Li Liang nodded.

"That's right, I was able to kill a soldier by myself for the first time." Companion praised.

Li Liang smiled. Although he knew that he was wearing a mask and the other party could not see his face, he still expressed his emotions in this way involuntarily.

"Okay, let's act quickly. My lord is still waiting for us to meet you." After the man said that, he turned around and went to other things.

When the man turned around, Li Liang saw a red cloth tied around the man's arm after watching the moonlight.Only then did they realize that this person was the general who led their actions this time.

Li Liang couldn't help being a little excited to be praised by such people, wondering if he would be reused after he went back.As the battlefield cleared up, everyone lurked on the shore again, waiting for the next patrol.

In this way, they killed the patrol soldiers one by one.No Yan Army patrols appeared until the shore.After the last batch of corpses were packed, a grain army sent a signal into the sky.

Li Chuang, who was waiting on the other side of the river, saw the signal exploding in the sky, and couldn't help laughing: "Haha, the big event has been accomplished. Thanks to Mr. who saw through the Yan army's strategy, otherwise Chuang would still be waiting here for nothing. "

The middle-aged Confucian scholar stroked his beard lightly, also with a smile on his face: "General, let's cross the river, or you will change later."

"Yes, that's right. Changes will come later. I'll give the order."

Then, with an order, the entire huge grain army officially began to cross the river. Unlike before Changsun Ji, the ships of these grain troops could completely cross the river.

A large number of boats were put into the water, and some wooden bridges that had been prepared before were directly erected on both sides of the river.

Just when the Liang army was about to start crossing the river on a large scale, another battle broke out on the other side of the river.

When the Liang army finished firing the signal flares, Wang Liang, who had been lying in ambush by the river, finally issued a signal to attack.He had spotted them when the Liang Army assassinated the second batch of patrol soldiers.

However, he did not kill them on the spot, but suppressed other soldiers who were about to kill them.What was waiting was for these people to send signals to the grain army.

As the main tool of war, bows and arrows not only have a lot of requirements from users, but also have many restrictions on the effects of war, such as range issues, and there are also requirements on the environment, so they cannot be used in rainy days.
