Chapter 708 Donkey is not right to horse
The situation is somewhat beyond Feng Yong’s estimation.
Buqu soon came over to report that a pack of wolves appeared in the south.
Feng Yong finally felt that something was wrong.
There is a fight going on between the two sides. Even if the wolves have eaten the courage of the leopards, they won’t dare to come up and join in the fun, right?
The noise outside the camp began to disappear.
Instead, there is a large expanse of green.
Although the wolves howling from time to time were not as lively as before, the pressure on people was even heavier.
Even ordinary soldiers felt the strangeness of the wolves.
Feng Yong looked gloomy and ordered: "Light the fire."
The blazing fire rising in the middle tent reflected the figure of the commander sitting peacefully in the tent, finally making everyone in the camp feel at ease.
“This Feng Langjun does have a good way of leading the army.”
In the dark night, someone whispered softly.
Then a gentle and elegant voice sounded: "It is indeed good that the soldiers in the camp are motionless. The more he can lead the troops, the better it is."
There was silence for a while in the darkness, and only a gentle and elegant voice continued to sound: "How is the situation over there with the barbarians?"
"Mr. Hui, the barbarians are in awe of wolves. They mistakenly believe that the villain can drive the wolves, and call the villain the wolf master. Now there are more than two thousand people gathered, ready to listen to the villain's orders."
The one who spoke first replied.
"Barbarians are ignorant and easy to drive." The elegant voice chuckled, "They are just like a dog's ears. As long as they are given a small profit, they will be like flies chasing away bad smells."
"Just over two thousand people is still a bit small. If there are three thousand people, then we can really see how capable this person is."
"Master, if there are three thousand people, that's ten times the number on the other side."
"Wolf Slave, if he really learns Wu Anjun's art of war, he will be able to defeat enemies ten times his own."
Hearing his master’s words, the wolf slave responded respectfully: “What the master said is true.”
"who?"
The soldiers guarding the outermost perimeter shouted loudly.
No one agreed, only a shadow of a person was seen swaying not far away, and then a strong wind roared.
To be able to serve as soldiers of Feng Junhou's tribe, they must not only be loyal and reliable, but also have excellent military qualities.
After the shouting soldier heard the wind, he thought it was an arrow fletching. He fell down tactically and quickly rolled to a hiding place.
The dull sound of "thumping" sounded, as if a lot of things were thrown into the camp with great force.
The wolves not far away seemed to have heard the command and immediately rushed over.
The wolves seemed to be a lot more violent than last night.
The first few wolves to arrive actually crashed into the camp desperately.
The makeshift fence creaked.
The wolf howled "Woo", as if it hurt his head.
But more wolves began to charge towards the camp.
The soldiers in the hiding place smelled the strong smell of blood.
The smell of blood also carries an indescribable strange smell.
Several torches were suddenly thrown into the camp.
It startled the wolves outside.
“Pengpeng…”
Taking advantage of this firelight, the crossbow, which had already been loaded with arrows, began to aim and fire.
The powerful arrows penetrated the bodies of several wolves at once.
The wolf closest to the camp was even driven back a few steps by the powerful impact of the arrow, and then fell to the ground.
Two more torches were thrown to the place where the objects had been dropped.
After confirming that the wolves could not enter for the time being, two soldiers jumped over and ran over as fast as possible.
After seeing what was thrown in clearly, he ran back again.
“The team leader is a corpse!”
The soldier in charge of reconnaissance reported.
“What corpse? Tell me clearly!”
The team leader responsible for the defense of this area asked.
“The flesh and blood are blurred, and the internal organs are protruding. It’s hard to see what kind of corpse it is. But from the looks of it, it’s probably a dead corpse with its limbs cut off, but the smell doesn’t sound like a dead corpse. It’s very weird!”
“They all crawled out of a pile of dead people, so why are they afraid of dead bodies? No matter how weird they are, how can they still come back to life?”
When the team leader heard that it was a dead thing, he immediately shouted: "Keep aiming and fire arrows to drive the wolves back!"
A wave of arrows was shot out in a dense burst.
The wolves howled again.
“You two, take your men and throw those bodies out.”
The team led the two closest commanders around them.
Although I don’t know why the other party threw these dead bodies in, someone who can serve as a team leader under Feng Junhou can also be a captain in other battalions.
Having often been influenced by Feng Junhou, it is not difficult to recite the military saying "What the enemy wants to do, we must stop it."
So the team responded quickly.
If it were other ordinary team leaders and soldiers, they might not care about these things.
Because many soldiers of this era had night blindness.
Soldiers who can participate in battles at night are rare soldiers. When encountering this situation, they will be used by the commander in important places.
How could valuable troops that can operate at night be wasted on things that have not detected threats?
But because of Feng Tibi's wealth, he had a lot of farms and pastures in his hands, and the offal of chickens, ducks, sheep and other animals were used on the soldiers, effectively supplementing vitamins.
Not to mention the bodyguards and life support of Feng Junhou, all of them were carefully selected by Mrs. Junhou.
Military prowess, good work style, loyalty and reliability, these are all basic operations.
The reason why Feng Yong dared to light the torch and illuminate the handsome tent extremely brightly.
One is to make the soldiers feel at ease when setting up camp, and the other is to be sure that the enemy will not dare to rush in rashly.
Do you think everyone is as rich, rich, food and knowledgeable as I am? Do you know what vitamin supplements are?
Even if they are barbarians, only a very small number of nobles and nobles can eat meat on a regular basis.
In most cases, ordinary nomadic families eat dairy products and drink some porridge.
If you can catch rabbits, deer, yellow sheep, etc. in normal times, it will be considered a festival.
How dare you kill your own cattle and sheep until the last moment?
That is equivalent to the last grain in the hands of farmers.
So the barbarians who do not suffer from night blindness are at least warriors in the hands of the chief nobles.
Feng Yongke didn’t believe that the Hu people could still pick out enough warriors to rush into the place that Jufu Liu Hun had cleaned up.
In the view of Feng Daju, he can think of the fatigue of the fatigue soldiers, and this group of Hu people are already very powerful.
Whether the barbarians are powerful or not, I don’t know the rate of the team responsible for the perimeter.
But in his opinion, it was impossible for the other party to throw dead bodies in for no reason, so he asked his men to throw the dead bodies back outside just to test the other party's reaction.
Two very long promises were highlighted.
Soon, twenty people came out of the hiding place and took turns covering each other as they advanced.
The remaining thirty people dispersed and looked warily outside the camp.
The first torches thrown out had been trampled down by the chaotic pack of wolves, and the team leader asked others to throw out a few more.
Just as the soldiers who appeared in the light lifted up the corpse, an arrow shot from nowhere suddenly hit a man in the chest with a "pop" sound.
The soldier screamed and fell to the ground.
“Enemy attack!”
The remaining nineteen people suddenly fell down together.
The two soldiers closest to the torch grabbed the torch as fast as lightning and threw it out of the camp while lying down.
The eagle shooter who was waiting outside to shoot the second arrow was stunned.
What is this operation?
In his imagination, these soldiers should have gathered immediately, blocked themselves with shields, and then retreated into the darkness.
Unexpectedly, he was lying directly on the ground?
This is a motherfucker!
Not to mention it was night, even during the day, it would be difficult to shoot at the soldiers lying on the ground and blocked by the camp fence.
But if you want to say that they were afraid of death, the act of throwing the torch directly out of the camp was a conscious move that only experienced soldiers could have.
The eagle-shooting hand scratched his head. Is this the virtue of the soldiers brought out by this master's son?
In the darkness, the soldiers in the camp who had been hit by arrows had been carried on their backs and quickly retreated.
There was an **** lying right next to the dead body, and the smell of blood and a strange smell went straight to his nose.
He gave an order in a low voice, and had people pick up the body and throw it out of the camp.
The dead bodies fell into the wolves, causing the wolves to suddenly go crazy. They roared and seemed to be fighting over the dead bodies. With the last torch outside, you could see that the wolves began to bite each other.
The soldier was surprised by the strange reaction of the wolves. He climbed up and moved closer to the fence, trying to get a better look.
“Are you looking for death?”
Shi Chang cursed urgently, rushed over and pushed him down.
There was a sound of breaking through the air, and the arrow feathers flew past the head.
The soldiers who reacted rolled over and disappeared into the darkness.
“The other side is the Condor Shooter!”
With such accurate arrow fletching, most people, except for eagle shooters, simply cannot do this.
The eagle shooter quickly raised his bow again and shot toward the ground based on his feeling.
No one screamed, it was obvious that the arrow missed.
Although the recklessness of the cubs under his command almost caused him to suffer another loss, the weirdness of the wolves also attracted a lot of attention.
While he was on the move, he ran back and told the team leader about the situation.
After a while, a torch was suddenly thrown out again, causing the eagle shooter to quickly draw his bow, and then he frowned again.
This time the opponent was already prepared and slowly moved to the place where the corpse was thrown while holding up his shield.
Then, the torch suddenly went out again.
The eagle shooter had to put down the bow and arrow in his hand. He could not guess what the soldiers on the opposite side were thinking.
The other person’s behavior is always unexpected.
The eccentric soldier was completely different from other soldiers he had encountered before.
Taking advantage of the torch just now, the soldiers in the camp saw clearly the dead bodies that had been missed earlier. After the torches were extinguished, they groped for the location of the dead bodies and threw them all outside the camp.
The wolves outside the camp seemed to be even more confused.
From time to time, there are low roars and whines...
But no more wolves crashed into the camp.
Faced with this situation, the Condor Shooter has no way of knowing what to do.
The camp opposite, no matter whether it was a feint attack from all sides or the crazy attack of the wolves, it was as quiet as water.
Not to mention there was any panic, not even a few soldiers appeared.
The soldiers who finally emerged were like loaches, slippery and gave themselves no chance at all.
Except for the brightly lit central camp, the rest of the camp is hidden in darkness.
Like a beast lurking in the darkness, waiting there quietly, waiting for the opponent to rush into its mouth.
“It seems that Feng Langjun opposite has already guessed our identity, so he reacted like this.”
The elegant voice at the beginning sounded again, with praise in his tone: "It turns out that he stopped for an extra long time today, just waiting for us to come to the door."
“It’s a pity that we didn’t understand what he meant and missed this great opportunity to talk to him.”
At this point, his tone turned to regret again.
“But Master, you haven’t been in contact with him yet, how could he know that you would come to him?”
The wolf slave asked doubtfully.
“Wolf slave, you have to know that people like us don’t need to meet to communicate. He must have noticed the clues you led the wolves to last night.”
"So he deliberately stopped for a long time, waiting for the guests to come. Tonight's camp was attacked without moving, and defended in a lawful manner, which also shows that he has been prepared for a long time."
"Otherwise, how could those soldiers guess that the wolves were attracted by the dead bodies? Then they risked being shot by the eagle slaves and threw the dead bodies outside?"
“If we were an ordinary soldier in this world, the most we would do is wait until dawn before we even think about cleaning up the dead bodies.”
“This is enough to show that Feng Langjun has already seen through your tricks, Wolf Slave.”
"I see."
The wolf slave said sincerely.
The man called the master said, pointing to the brightest place in the center of the camp.
“Look, in the camp, there is a light on, and everything else is dark.”
“He is showing us that he is there and asking us if we dare to go over? This is his invitation!”
"invite?"
"Yes, invitation. He is saying that nothing matters more than three things. This is his last courtesy to us, and this is also his last courtesy to us."
As soon as he finished speaking, the lights in the central tent in the camp suddenly went out.
Feng Tibi, who had stayed up most of the night, was sure that the enemy in the darkness did not dare to actually attack the camp, so he yawned and retracted into his sleeping bag.
The inner liner of the sleeping bag is sewn with fine down carefully combed by Nanxiang, which is very warm.
He could only hear him grunting: "It's just a tactic to scare us away. Do you want to scare me? Get some sleep first!"
At the same time, I was secretly glad. Fortunately, I had allowed my men under my command to get some extra rest during the day. Otherwise, without a good rest for two consecutive nights, the soldiers would be exhausted even if they were tough.
“Master, what does this mean?”
“The ceremony is over, he will not be polite again tomorrow.”
“The master is wise.”
“This is the etiquette between us. It’s normal if you don’t understand.”
…
After dawn, a curl of green smoke rose in the camp. This was the leader of the group boiling water.
Feng Yong yawned, took the hot water brought by Bu Qu, took out a portion of dry food from his portable dry food bag, peeled off the oil paper, and started to eat with the hot water.
He held a bowl in one hand and dry food in the other, looking outside the camp.
The white mist filled the air, making it difficult to see the distance.
“How is the situation outside? Have you found out?”
Feng Yong took a bite of dry food and asked.
"Chief Hui Shan, we have found out that there are no more than three thousand barbarians outside, and they are all on the northeast and west sides. Only the south side is quiet and uninhabited."
The sixteen-year-old staff officer had already collected and sorted out the reports from each team.
The title "mountain chief" is only qualified for students who came out of Nanxiang Academy.
Feng Yong said "Hmm" and swallowed the dry food and hot water in his mouth. "It seems they want to drive us south."
"I remember, weren't the wolves in the south last night? What happened? Do you have any clues?"
If the wolves the night before could be explained by coincidence, then the abnormal appearance of the wolves last night indicated that something was fishy.
“The team defending the south reported that at the beginning, someone threw dead bodies into the camp. The wolves seemed to want to eat those dead bodies, so they kept attacking the camp.”
The staff officer replied.
Feng Yong was startled, then turned his head, "How did you know?"
"Chief Huishan, in the report the night before, I mentioned that the smell of blood was very unusual. Last night, a chief also noticed that there was a strange smell in the smell of blood."
“Later they threw the dead body outside, and the wolves scrambled wildly for it. Based on these circumstances, several of us inferred that there was probably something weird about the dead body.”
Feng Yong nodded, threw all the dry food in his hand into his mouth, drank all the water, handed the bowl to the staff officer, and patted him on the shoulder, "Not bad."
After receiving the praise from the mountain commander, the staff officer's face glowed red and he subconsciously stood up straight.
“I plan to build a martial arts lecture hall in Pingxiang this year. At that time, some experienced soldiers and generals will come to give lectures. You and a few of them will go in and learn. It will be the first period.”
“No!”
The staff officer shouted loudly.
Feng Yong clapped his hands and looked to the east. The sun had begun to appear.
“Send the order and get ready for battle!”
