As Chen Yingliang introduced to Fan Zigai, although the wealthy Sui Youwuwei did not equip every soldier with a war horse, he had every soldier trained in the most basic horse riding skills. At the same time, because of the martial arts spirit among the people during the Sui and Tang Dynasties,

Because of their strong strength, quite a few soldiers of the Patriot Army were very good at riding, much better than Chen Yingliang, who inherited the memory of riding skills from the dead ghost Chen Yingliang.

Of course, there were soldiers from the Patriot Army whose riding skills were really bad, and they didn’t have much confidence in galloping for sixty miles. Fortunately, there were not many of them, only about thirty people in total. Chen Yingliang did not force them to go out to fight, and let them stay in the camp to train.

Riding skills, and then temporarily organized soldiers with the ability to fight on horseback to serve as forwards. Soldiers who could only ride horses and whips but could not fight immediately served as the rear team, allowing them to dismount and fight on foot on the battlefield. Then they did some necessary work.

According to the arrangement, just after noon, Chen Yingliang led the troops of the Patriot Army out of the city from Anximen, and rushed to the Mangshan battlefield under the guidance of the guide.

The guide who was forcibly taken to the army by Chen Yingliang was named Qian Xiangmin. He was a ninth-grade school secretary with a somewhat greedy personality and a fear of death. He also liked to act like a sesame mung bean official in front of the soldiers of the Patriot Army, which caused him to be offended several times.

Guo Feng, Zhao Yu and other soldiers with bad tempers were furious. However, Qian Xiangmin did not dare to put on any official airs in front of Chen Yingliang. On the contrary, he deliberately flattered Mr. Qian and was not a fool. He knew that Chen Yingliang was currently

The city of Dongdu is extremely popular, and you can often meet with Yang Tong, Fan Zigai, Huangfu Wuyi and other super powerful people. Now there will definitely be no good fruits to be gained by offending Chen Yingliang.

Of course, Chen Yingliang didn't like to deceive Qian Xiangmin, but this risky attack really needed Qian Xiangmin's intelligence support, so Chen Yingliang could only ask Qian Xiangmin about various situations on the Mangshan battlefield in a pleasant manner.

It is a pity that Mr. Qian is also a character who knows nothing about the military. Even though he personally observed the situation in the rebel camp from a high position, he was still unable to provide Chen Yingliang with any useful information. He even knew nothing about the fortifications in the rebel camp.

Not to mention the weaknesses in the defense of the rebel camp that Chen Yingliang hoped for most.

In desperation, Chen Yingliang had no choice but to change his goal and asked Qian Xiangmin: "Sir Qian, since you can't clearly see the situation in the rebel camp from too far away, you stayed in Wei Shangshu's camp for almost a whole day.

You should know the situation of Wei Shangshu’s camp, right? How is Wei Shangshu’s camp fortified? How many layers of fences are there? Have trenches been dug to protect the camp? What kind of fortifications are there?”

"Chen Ji's Office, why are you asking? What's the use?" Qian Xiangmin was confused.

"Master Ma, there is no need to ask any more questions. Please introduce it in as much detail as possible." Chen Yingliang was too lazy to explain Qian Xiangmin in detail.

For the sake of Fan Zigai, Huangfu Wuyi, Pei Hongce and other super powerful people behind Chen Yingliang, Qian Xiangmin did not dare to ask more questions and introduced truthfully: "Wei Shangshu's camp only has two layers of fences, the outer layer protects the camp.

, the inner layer protects the Chinese army camp. Originally, the Daxing army was still digging trenches when Xianguan went there, but because Wei Shang Shuji believed that the rebels had food and grass arriving, he ordered to abandon the digging and prepare for the war with all his strength, so the trenches were only dug on the front.

There are less than half of them. As for other camp fortifications, there are basically none. Perhaps because of the rush of time, Wei Shangshu's team only built some guard towers."

Chen Yingliang nodded, quite satisfied with Qian Xiangmin's introduction. After thinking about it for a while, Chen Yingliang suddenly asked: "Sir Qian, where is the food and grass for Wei Shangshu's team stored? Do you know the location?"

"I know, it's in the back camp. I went there during dinner." Qian Xiangmin answered smoothly, and then asked doubtfully: "Chen Ji's Office, you asked about our Daxing Army\u96

1000

What do you want to do by hoarding 1f’s food and grass there?”

"You will know when the time comes." Chen Yingliang said with a smile: "Sir Qian, if the battle situation is as I expected, maybe you will make great contributions to the court this time." When Qian Xiangmin heard this, he was overjoyed and quickly asked himself: What is the role of the court?

What great achievements had been made, Chen Yingliang smiled and refused to answer. He just ordered Qian Xiangmin to lead the way for his army, and rushed directly to the Mangshan battlefield via Pingguan Road.

The march route chosen by Chen Yingliang shocked Guo Feng, Chen Ci and other patriotic military lieutenants. They all came to Chen Yingliang and questioned, "Isn't it too risky to take the official road to the Mangshan battlefield in Chen Yingliang's office? The traitor Yang Xuangan will definitely do it."

Deploy heavy troops on the official road to intercept us?"

"What's the matter? Are you scared?" Chen Yingliang asked with a smile: "When I was in the city just now, I asked you if you were scared to attack the back of the traitor Yang Tie, and you all said you were not scared. We are not even five miles out of the city, so why are you so scared?

Don’t you even dare to leave through official channels?”

"Chen Ji's office misunderstood. We are not afraid." Guo Feng shook his head and said: "We are worried about being intercepted by the enemy and wasting time, and not being able to rush to the battlefield to support the Daxing army."

"It's okay, let's go, I have already made arrangements." Chen Yingliang said confidently with a smile. Guo Feng, Chen Ci and others had already obeyed Chen Yingliang's words. Seeing Chen Yingliang's confident expression, they didn't say anything more and just stayed honest.

Really lead the army on the road.

Chen Yingliang did have an arrangement. After marching for more than ten miles, he sent soldiers who were proficient in riding skills to carefully confirm that there were no rebel scouts around. Chen Yingliang immediately ordered the army to stop advancing, and all took off their white cloaks that represented the identity of the national army and hid them.

He also ordered that all the flags of loyalty to the country and the Sui army flags be taken down and hidden, and replaced with a batch of rebel flags captured from the battlefield, and then ordered the team to continue advancing along the official road. At this time, Qian Xiang

Minhe Guo Feng and other talents finally understood Chen Yingliang's intention and exclaimed: "Chen Ji's Office, are you going to let us pretend to be a rebel team and go to the Mangshan battlefield?"

"You guessed it right." Chen Yingliang snapped his fingers and said with a smile: "Yang's rebel army has not been established for a long time. It is a mixed bag of good and bad, and they are constantly changing.

2000

Recruiting rebels and trying our best to expand the ranks, the armies will definitely not be very familiar with each other, and they will all rely on flags to distinguish ourselves from the enemy. If we go to the Mangshan battlefield under the banner of Yang Rebel, it will definitely be difficult for Yang Rebel's army to distinguish ourselves from the enemy."

Guo Feng and others were speechless, and then Chen Ci exclaimed: "But in Chen Ji's Office, we are still wearing the Sui military uniforms and armors?"

"Idiot, are you stupid in chanting sutras?" Chen Yingliang laughed and cursed, and said: "When we fought with the rebels a few times ago, didn't you see that many of the former right-hand armed guards who surrendered to the rebels had the same disease on their bodies?

Still wearing Sui military uniforms? Also, the Sui armors captured by the rebel team from the battlefield are all elite equipment distributed to them. If we go there wearing armor, the rebel scouts will think that we are elite rebel soldiers, and they will treat us badly.

More polite and polite.”

Guo Feng and others continued to be dumbfounded, while Chen Yingliang said with a smile: "Don't be stunned, let's go quickly, don't worry, if you are found out, you can just start fighting, what is there to be afraid of? Go tell our soldiers to first encounter the enemy.

Don't take action. I will personally negotiate with the enemy. Don't act rashly without orders."

Guo Feng, Chen Ci and others thought about it carefully. They felt that even if they were discovered by the enemy, they could just start fighting - anyway, they went to the battlefield just to fight, so they didn't say anything more and immediately followed Chen Yingliang's instructions to deliver the order.

The arrangements were made, but Qian Xiangmin next to him was so frightened that he trembled and said tremblingly: "Chen Ji's Office, please don't mess around. There are tens of thousands of rebels in Mangshan."

"There are tens of thousands of rebels as the main force, but there are also tens of thousands of our Sui soldiers." Chen Yingliang said lightly: "Don't be afraid, just follow me. As long as our national army protects you, just Yang rebels

That rabble can't hurt you even a hair."

So, at the request of the audacious Chen Yingliang, the Baoguo Army troops who didn't even bother to change their armor were branded with rebel flags and marched directly to the Mangshan battlefield in a swagger. As a result, has the Baoguo Army team been deceived?

The rebels didn't know it yet, but they frightened some Sui army scouts who were patrolling the official road to death. They scrambled for their lives and fled deep into the grass and woods on the roadside. They could still vaguely hear the heart-rending tragedy.

He shouted, "The traitor Yang is here, run!" The panic and embarrassment made the soldiers of the Baoguo Army laugh, and Chen Yingliang shook his head and sighed, and did not dare to have any hope for the scouts of the Sui Army in the East.

.

After marching westwards for more than 20 miles, a group of rebel scouts wearing canvas armor finally appeared on the official road. The atmosphere in the Nationalist Army suddenly became tense, and many soldiers reflexively went to attack the enemy.

Spear, Chen Yingliang quickly stopped, and then shouted to the group of rebel scouts who came forward with a majestic look: "Stop! Whose subordinates? Password!"

"General, I am a scout under General Yang Xuanting and Yang San!" The rebel scouts obviously never dreamed that the enemy would dare to dress up as their own army in broad daylight. They said loudly with a smile on their faces: "Our captain is Zhao Daduan and Zhao

General, the villain is the leader of the gang."

"It turns out he is under the command of the Third General." Chen Yingliang showed a smile, and then shouted: "What is the password? I haven't answered yet!"

"Password?" The rebel scout leader was stunned and asked in surprise: "General, what is the password?"

"You don't even know the password?" Chen Yingliang almost fell off his horse. For a moment, he wanted to strangle all the scouts in Dongdu City - he encountered such a novice enemy who could not clearly detect the enemy's situation. He was so incompetent that he should commit seppuku.

Got it!

After secretly cursing the incompetent scouts of the Sui Army in Luoyang, Chen Yingliang shouted with a majestic look: "Who arranged today's scouts? They didn't even give a password to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. What if the officers and soldiers disguise themselves as our people?"

manage?"

Seeing Chen Yingliang's majestic demeanor, the rebel scout leader was a little frightened and said timidly: "General, today's scouts are arranged by General Yingyang Pingda Xuping."

"Pinghu Gou, wait until I see the third general and see how I deal with him!" Chen Yingliang gritted his teeth and cursed, then waved to the group leader and said, "Come here."

"No." The rebel scolded\u

2000

The leader of 5019 was relieved and quickly led his nine men to dismount. He quickly ran to Chen Yingliang, knelt down on one knee and saluted, and said respectfully: "Little man Yicheng, I have to pay homage to the general. May I ask the general where his name comes from?"

"Get up." Chen Yingliang gave the order grandly, and then said: "My general's surname is Chen. On the order of General Yang Jishan, I escorted a nobleman from Jinyong City to Mangshan battlefield to pay homage to Duke Chu."

As he spoke, Chen Yingliang pointed to Qian Xiangmin, the only one next to him who was not wearing military uniform and armor, and said with a smile: "Have you met Master Qian? This Master Qian came from thousands of miles away from Liaodong and brought a huge gift to Duke Chu.

We just arrived at Jinyong City today. General Yang Jishan sent us to protect him at the Mangshan battlefield and asked him to report the good news to Duke Chu in person as soon as possible and ask Duke Chu to decide on important matters!"

"Little man Ma Yicheng, lead this team to meet Mr. Qian." Ma Yicheng quickly led nine more men to give Qian Xiangmin a salute. Qian Xiangmin was already scared and pale, and it took him a long time to wave at Chen Yingliang's suggestion.

He waved his hand and asked Ma Yicheng and other rebel scouts to stand up.

"Get up, you guys are really lucky to have the opportunity to meet Mr. Qian!" Chen Yingliang bluffed a few more words, and then asked Ma Yicheng: "How is the situation up front? Is our team there?

Are you fighting with the army?"

"General, Mr. Qian, I'm so happy." Ma Yicheng said with a smile on his face: "This morning, Duke Chu personally led the army to fight against the officers and soldiers. Using the ingenious plan of Military Advisor Li, Duke Chu deliberately sent people to spread the news among the officers and soldiers, saying that the officers and soldiers

We had captured the Duke of Chu, but as soon as the officers and soldiers were fooled, they all rushed forward. The Duke of Chu took the opportunity and led the ambush troops to suddenly rush out, defeated the officers and soldiers, and even rushed into the army's camp in one breath!"

"Really? That's great!" Chen Yingliang looked happy and asked happily: "So what's the situation now? Have you caught that old man Wei Xuan?"

"I don't know." Ma Yicheng answered truthfully: "The villain just heard about our victory and rushed into the army camp. The other villains don't know."

"As long as we win a big victory!" Chen Yingliang clapped and laughed, and shouted quickly: "Okay, don't waste time, get out of the way, I have to protect Lord Qian to see Duke Chu!" Ma Yicheng and other rebel scouts hurriedly agreed.

, quickly moved out of the way, Chen Yingliang waved his big hand, and led the eight hundred soldiers to continue riding on the road. Ma Yicheng and other rebel scouts nodded and bowed by the roadside, respectfully seeing off this elite rebel cavalry team from Jinyong City.

It was not until he was far away from Ma Yicheng and other rebel scouts that Qian Xiangmin's face regained some color. He tremblingly held his hands to Chen Yingliang and said: "Chen Ji's Office, I am really convinced by you. Your courage is really strong."

Ah, at such a close distance, you actually dare to talk so much to the rebel team."

Chen Yingliang smiled and said to himself, this is nothing. When I was a junior detective, I once worked undercover in a drug den for more than a month. That was thrilling!

"What's so scary about this?" Guo Feng next to him said with a sneer: "There are only a dozen or so traitors. With an order from Chen Ji's Office, all their heads will fall to the ground immediately. By the way, Chen Ji's Office, do you want me to bring a few more?

Brother, go back and clean them all up?"

"I don't think it's necessary." Chen Ci interrupted: "They obviously didn't know our identity. Killing them will have no effect. It will only expose us."

"You're right, there's no need to expose us for ten rookies." Chen Yingliang nodded and told Guo Feng: "Captain Guo, I'll give you a mission. If we meet the rebel scout patrol again later, if they dismount and salute, let me

Forget it, if you dare to take the initiative to question our origins and identities, go up and slap the leader, the harder the better, and then tell him that I am General Chen sent by Yang Jishan from Jinyong City to escort this person.

Mr. Qian went to Mangshan battlefield to meet Yang Xuangan, and if he dares to stop him, he will be executed without mercy!"
