Chapter 170 I cheat

Early the next morning, that is, the early morning of the first day of February, Wanyan Wushu led an army of 30,000 to Dashanguan in a mighty manner. It was the same as usual in the monk's original camp, with only 20,000 troops and 10,000 auxiliary troops left.

An army of ten thousand Jurchens.

The 10,000 Xie soldiers were led by three people: Commander Zheng Hui, Deputy Commander Ma You and Commander Li Nong. Li Nong's army was responsible for patrolling the outskirts, Ma You's 2,000 troops were responsible for transporting grain and grass supplies, and Zheng Hui's army was responsible for guarding the main camp.

The 10,000 Jurchens were also divided into two. Xiao Zong's 5,000 troops were responsible for escorting grain along the way to ensure safety, and Wanyan Alupu's 5,000 troops were responsible for the safety of the material and grain depots.

They each performed their duties without interfering with each other. In the afternoon, a transportation team loaded with food prepared to go to Dashan Pass.

Xiao Cong sent a cavalry team of 3,000 people to guard the grain. There were also 15,000 Jin soldiers in the camp.

At dusk, Li Nong hurried to Zheng Ping's tent. In addition to Zheng Ping, there were two commanders and five commanders in the tent. It seemed that Zheng Hui was gathering the generals to discuss matters.

Zheng Ping saw Li Nong coming in, nodded to him, and ordered his soldiers to guard outside the tent, "No one is allowed to enter the tent!"

Zheng Ping's face became serious, "Everyone, we have been waiting for three full months, and the last moment is coming."

Everyone looked at Li Nong. These generals were all soldiers of the Song Army who had followed Zheng Ping into the Jin camp, but Li Nong was an outlier.

Zheng Ping said with a smile: "General Li has been one of our own for a long time. The key to the failure of the Jurchen encirclement and suppression in winter is the timely information provided by General Li. In fact, General Li has joined us and has been recognized by the commander. This time

He will act with us."

Li Nong clasped his fists and said solemnly to everyone: "Generals, I am a Han Chinese. My ancestor is Li Jixun, the famous founding general of the Song Dynasty. What I did has brought shame to my ancestors. In the past few years, I have always regretted surrendering to the Jin soldiers and hated myself.

I am weak and hate myself for being greedy for life and afraid of death, but Commander Chen gave me this opportunity to correct my evil ways and return to the right path. I will cherish it and I will cooperate with you to accomplish this great thing. Please believe me!"

After saying that, Li Nong bowed deeply to the generals and won a round of applause from everyone.

Zheng Ping continued: "Let's continue talking about business. Let's take a look at the commander's order first!"

Zheng Ping took out Chen Qing's secret letter and handed it to everyone for circulation. Seeing that everyone had roughly read it, Zheng Ping continued to explain the situation to everyone.

"Tomorrow is the second day of the first lunar month. Everyone already knows that the commander-in-chief will take action between the second and fifth watch tomorrow night. But what should we do and what emergencies will we encounter? To be honest, I am not sure at all now. For tomorrow

Success, I'm thinking of rehearsing it tonight. Everyone will have a clear mission. In order not to be exposed, we will assume that there is an attack by unknown troops outside the camp. Then everyone will perform their duties. Who is responsible for raising fire, who is responsible for covering, and who is responsible.

Of course, the assault is not a real one, and it cannot involve soldiers, otherwise it will be discovered by the golden soldiers."

Li Nong smiled and said: "General Zheng's idea is very good. It does need to be practiced once so that we won't be in a hurry tomorrow. General Zheng and I have discussed it. In fact, the core of our mission is to burn down the Jinbing's warehouse camp. I was in charge of the warehouse camp before.

patrolling the perimeter, I know there is a big loophole in the warehouse camp..."

Before Li Nong could finish speaking, the conductor Wu Miao blurted out: "Underground!"

Everyone laughed in understanding, and Li Nong clapped and laughed and said: "It seems that everyone is on the same page. Yes, the biggest vulnerability of the Jinbing Warehouse Camp is underground. No matter how tight the defense is above ground, it cannot protect against the underground."

Everyone looked at Zheng Ping strangely. Zheng Ping smiled lightly and said: "Tonight's drill does not involve the warehouse camp, it only involves everyone's tasks. In order to avoid misunderstandings, from now on we will not talk about the warehouse camp. Our drill will only focus on the assembly."

Until then, everyone’s tasks will be clarified.”

Li Nong said in a deep voice: "General Zheng, I suggest that everyone's appointments be made clear now!"

Zheng Ping took a look at everyone and said: "To be honest with General Li, in fact, everyone's tasks were decided not long after entering the camp last year, but there was never a chance to implement them. Now I plan to use last year's plan and make some fine adjustments.

, The person in charge of digging the hole tonight is Wu Miao. Wang Hao was said to be in charge before. This time Wang Hao changed it to lighting the fire, and the cover was taken by the two commanders Zhang Taiping and Zhao Jian. They each led 500 troops to patrol at night.

It is strictly forbidden for anyone to approach the burrowing tent.

The timing of the uprising depends on the commander's offensive on the periphery. Once the commander launches the offensive, General Li and I will lead the army to rebel at the same time. The reason is also very simple. The Jin soldiers want to kill us all, and we must resist.

Tonight's drill will start at the second watch. I hope that all the soldiers will not take off their armor to sleep. I will tell the soldiers that we may be transferred to Dashan Pass in the middle of the night. Then at the second watch, everyone will gather at my dormitory on time and report.

After the mission, the drill is over, do you understand?"

"Understood!"

Everyone dispersed, and Li Nong stepped forward and said, "I still have two things to confirm. Where is the digging tent? Why did the general never tell me?"

Zheng Ping smiled and said: "I haven't thought about it yet. I chose two locations. One is the seat at the shipping door. There are few golden soldiers there and it is not easy to be found. But the disadvantage is that the distance is a little longer, and there is another

The place is next to the water tower, which is very close to my main camp, but there are too many soldiers patrolling, so General Li needs to give me some advice."

"The key is how long the tunnel should be dug? If the tunnel is too long, I'm afraid there won't be enough time."

"I knew I didn't have enough time, so I thought it wouldn't take long. It would only take about fifty steps from our main camp to the warehouse camp."

"Then I suggest we go to the water tower. Although there are a lot of patrols now, once the commander attacks outside, there will definitely be less patrols. Just in time to dig the tunnel, I suggest we start tonight. Anyway, there is only one day, and the Jin soldiers will not notice."

"I'll go back and discuss it with Wu Miao and listen to his opinion. Besides the authenticity, is there anything else General Li needs to confirm?"

"There is also an ignition plan. Where to light it first? How to ignite it? Do you need gunpowder to assist, etc. These are very important. General Zheng has not considered it yet!"

Zheng Ping sighed, "I probably have a preliminary plan. After the drill ends in the evening, the two of us plus Wang Hao will discuss it together to see what supplies are still missing."

Li Nong said happily: "This is the best. I will figure out what supplies are needed, and then...will the soldiers really sleep with their armor on tonight?"

Zheng Ping said calmly: "This is not a requirement. In fact, my troops have not taken off their armor to sleep every night since the war started. I only made it clear for the purpose of practice. General Li is responsible for it tonight, but he must not take off his armor tomorrow night!"

"

Li Nong pondered for a while and said: "My soldiers take off their armor every night to sleep. If they are suddenly told not to take off their armor, I'm afraid it will arouse the suspicion of the Jin soldiers. I will make arrangements during the day tomorrow and find an excuse so that they will not take off their armor tomorrow night."

Already."

After a pause, Zheng Ping said to Li Nong again: "I still said what I said before. The general can explain this matter to his confidants at the first update tomorrow. Before that, it must be kept strictly confidential. Only the general knows. It's not that I don't trust the general.

I'm afraid something might happen if too many people know about it."

"Don't worry! I won't tell anyone."

Li Nongxing bowed and left. Zheng Ping looked at his back and cursed in a low voice: "You son of a bitch, you almost deceived me!"

...........

The time gradually reached two o'clock. Li Nong paced back and forth in the room uneasily. A strong uneasiness lingered in his heart. This drill Zheng Ping conducted was beyond his expectation. Everything was the same as the real one. What if the fake turned out to be real?

What to do? Has Zheng Ping already discovered him?

Li Nong recalled everything that had happened recently. There were no flaws in his performance, but he felt that Zheng Ping seemed to have arranged everything. Everyone knew it and there was no problem. He only hid it from himself.

No, if the lie turns out to be true and the fourth prince blames him, he will not be able to live with it.

He immediately called for his confidant general Wang Guanghua, handed him the military talisman and the command arrow, and told him: "If anything unusual happens tonight, you will be in control of the military. Everything will be under the command of General Xiao Cong!"

"I humbly obey orders!"

Wang Guanghua took the command arrows and military talismans and left. Li Nong immediately wrote another letter and handed it to the soldiers, "If I haven't come back after half an hour, please give this letter to General Xiao Cong immediately!"

After arrangements for the funeral were made, and the second watch was approaching, Li Nong put on his sword and went to Zheng Ping's tent to gather.
