Chapter 978: Infiltration

The sound of rain clicking on the camp tent sounded, and soon, the rain was gurgling outside.

Xiao Yuan was wearing a brocade dress, a jade hairpin, and stood at the door of the big tent with his hands behind his back, watching Ye Yu quietly.

Near the moat.

The darkness covers, coupled with the rain, the visibility is only a few steps ahead.

Wei Qing was waving his hand and shouting softly:

"Quick! Hurry! Keep up!"

A large number of elite soldiers dressed in civilized clothes and advanced quickly in the rain, jumping off the moat one by one.

The sound of rain covered the sound of footsteps. On the city defense in the distance, the soldiers of Chu were still standing guard in the rain, with their backs straight.

There are also torches under the eaves of the city tower, which are light and dark, swaying in the wind and rain.

The moat is very deep, and there are a few people above the bottom of the river, so the secret passage is not very low, so you can move forward quickly by just holding your waist.

With Wei Qing in front, the soldiers bent over and entered continuously.

In this way, I don’t know how long it took, until the second half of the night, Wei Qing finally emerged and was the first to crawl out of the secret passage.

At this time, he was already in Xiangyang City, near the city river. He had just looked up and had not had time to observe the surrounding situation. There was a sound coming from beside him, and he was quiet and careful: "General Wei Qing?"

Ah? Wei Qing's heart moved. Seeing a black shadow beside him, he knew that this was the brother who was responding to him. He leaped onto the ground with his arms and asked in a low voice: "No one noticed it, right?"

"Don't worry, General, this secret passage has been blocked and opened just now." The person who responded was the leader of the Sei-Chief who had lurked in Xiangyang before the war, named Sun Feng, and was also a young man from the Snow Clan.

After answering Wei Qing's words, he whispered: "General, you should act quickly. It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. I have already arranged the place to stay. We should quickly hide our tracks during the rainy night."

"Yeah." Wei Qing nodded, squatted down and waved to the secretly: "Hurry!"

Next, soldiers rushed to the ground. After coming up, they naturally divided several people and quickly went to all directions to serve as sentinels.

The plan went smoothly, and more and more people came out, but at this moment, a soldier said in a low voice: "Someone."

As soon as this sentence was spoken, everyone was shocked, and then they crawled on the ground without giving instructions.

On the street in the distance, a drunk man was unbuttoning his belt and peeing on the spot, muttering: "Damn it, it's so raining..."

Soon, the surroundings returned to tranquility, with only the sound of rain remaining.

Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then started to act again.

Since you have to sneak in secret, you naturally have to rely on the time.

The Qin army was preparing to move, and it was this rainy night.

Otherwise, if the moon shines brightly and pedestrians appear on the streets, they will face the risk of exposure.

Now on a rainy night, every household has already fallen asleep, and there is nothing to do, which will definitely not come out, which also gives Qin Jun time to settle down quickly.

After everyone arrived, under the leadership of Sun Feng, the group rushed and finally entered two large mansions without any danger.

The courtyard covers a huge area. The courtyard alone is enough to accommodate many people, as well as many wing rooms, and the location is not in the downtown area.

This is a temporary place to settle down that Sun Feng specially set in advance.

After arriving here, Wei Qing felt a little relieved. He first asked the soldiers to rest, then called several centurions and discussed in the room.

The oil lamp was lit in the room, and the few people were like chickens falling, and their bodies were dirty. Wei Qing wiped his hands first, then he reached into his arms, carefully took out the tightly wrapped Dongcang detailed picture, and on the round table

Spread it out.

Surrounded by everyone, Wei Qing leaned forward a little and began to point to the detailed picture and said: "The Chu army's food and grass camp is in a relatively remote position. Although it is somewhat inconvenient for us to move, there is no water source nearby. Once the fire catches, the fire will not be

Block.”

As he spoke, he looked at Sun Feng again: "Have the Chu army's troops figured out near Dongcang?"

"I have figured it out. Their defense is not very strict and there is no heavy army to defend. If the general leads hundreds of elite troops and attacks them unprepared, they can quickly break through!" Sun Feng said.

Yes, the Chu army's food camp is in their own city, and the Qin army cannot enter outside the city. No matter what, they would not have thought that something would happen here, so it is normal for them to have no heavy troops.

Wei Qing asked again: "Where are the oil pedestals? Are you ready?"

"Don't worry, General. After receiving the king's order, his subordinates have secretly collected it." Sun Feng said.

"Okay." Wei Qing nodded, studied the carving of the land picture, and said, "From the location of the Dongguan, if a night attack is launched, the effect will be better. I just don't know how the night is in Xiangyang City."

Sun Feng received: "We are safe only today's rainy night. If so many people appeared at night, once they were discovered, the Chu army might be alert. Moreover, due to the war, Xiangyang has now imposed a curfew, and night attacks may not be advisable.

.”

"That's it..." Wei Qing touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and said decisively: "Then let's attack during the day! Let's rest here first today and wait until tomorrow will clear, so that the soldiers will scatter and lurk in various places in Xiangyang.

, It should be eaten and drunk, just like ordinary people, three days later, the Si hour will be completed and the East Cang!"

As he said that, he looked at a centurion: "You are responsible for the oil altar. At that time, you will be transported by wooden carts and covered with forage."

"I understand!" the centurion clasped his fists.

Wei Qing pointed to the left wing of the granary gate again and looked at another person and said, "You are responsible for breaking this place!"

He pointed to the right wing again and looked at another person: "You are responsible for breaking the right wing defenders!"

"The rest of the soldiers rushed directly to the main gate, and after breaking the warehouse, they quickly set fire!"

"Get orders!" Several centurions clasped their fists together.

After arranging these, Wei Qing straightened up and said seriously: "This operation is related to the entire army. Whether Xiangyang can be pacified, success or failure will be achieved in one fell swoop!"

Several centurions all looked shocked.

The next day, the sun rose.

Hundreds of elite soldiers cleaned the mud and stains on their bodies, changed their clean clothes, and hid in various parts of Xiangyang.

Xiangyang is very large and has a lot of urban areas. Some people go to taverns to drink, some people hang out in the market, and some people go to brothels. On the surface, they look no different from ordinary people.

In this way, these elite soldiers successfully lurked.

Time passes slowly.

Three days later, outside the west gate of Xiangyang, the Qin army again came to the city.

In the city, a large number of Chu soldiers were running and advancing, rushing from various battalions to the city defense.

Not long after Hanzhou woke up, he also walked towards Chengguan. The deputy general came up and followed him and said, "The Qin army attacked the city early in the morning. It must be that he was ready for a day of bloody battle. The people who came were not kind.
