Chapter 264: The truth about Luchuan, outsourcing

Chapter 264: The truth about Luchuan, outsourcing

There was a sudden sound in the dark house.
"Puch!"

Blood splattered, the body twitched slightly, and soon there was no movement.

Lu Yunyi quietly looked at the soldier wearing armor and carrying a long sword on the bed, and a look of understanding flashed in his eyes.

He realized something after killing four Luchuan soldiers.

This Luchuan troop is guarded.
And judging from the fact that most of the soldiers were stationed in the safe west of the village,
Akron has some rules and regulations, and the layout is quite strict.
But Lu Yunyi's face was filled with strangeness. He looked at the armor and the long sword.

Thinking of the two soldiers in the first room, he confirmed his thoughts.

It's not that there are no guards, but that the guards neglect their duties.

Either sleep with him or sleep with a woman.

If the guards in these six houses perform their duties conscientiously and guard the surroundings strictly,

The east and west directions are blocked, so they may not be able to get in.

It’s a pity that there is no if on the battlefield. This is a winner-takes-all game.

Lu Yunyi wiped the dagger, quietly walked out of the house, and soon reached the roof again.

He looked towards the central courtyard, which was still heavily guarded, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
The night raid was a great success.

A large part of the reason for this is that the military's command system got out of control.

The same was true in the previous two attacks; the soldiers without a leader were just a mob.

Soon, the other four people also came out of the houses they were responsible for and joined Lu Yunyi. The mission was completed smoothly.

There were seventeen guards in total, and they all slept soundly until their death.

This made Lu Yunyi doubt again whether such solemn preparations were really necessary.

But he quickly rejected this idea.
The mission went so smoothly because the preparations were thorough enough, and we can't confuse cause and effect.

The five people gathered together, and Lu Yunyi spoke in a deep voice:
"Qin Yuanfang, you return to the main force, and all the exploration teams will be under your command.

The combat team is under the overall planning of Qian Hong and is preparing for a strong attack according to the plan."

Then Lu Yunyi handed over a piece of paper:

"Here are some messages from the enemy, they are fast asleep,

As long as you manage the strategy well, it won't be difficult to capture it. Pay attention to controlling casualties and don't be stingy with weapons."

Qin Yuanfang took the note with a serious expression, nodded heavily, and continued listening.

Lu Yunyi looked at Feng Yunfang and others and continued:

"The four of us will stop the leader, General Akron.

Once everything is in place, wait for my signal and attack at the same time!"

It was not until this time that Qin Yuanfang spoke in a deep voice:
"Yes, my lord!"

After saying this, he showed some hesitation on his face:
"Sir, why don't you go back and command the war?"

Lu Yunyi glanced at the four people and saw some concerns on their faces. He understood in his heart:

"An elite army should be able to maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness even if it loses its commander.
With ten people in a team, each doing their own job, it would be easy even if they were to attack head-on.

What's more, we are attacking at night, the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light.

Finally I met an easy opponent.

Our vanguard scout unit is going to try out new tactics and march ahead of all the Ming troops.

Go quickly, it is the Chou hour now, the time when people are most asleep, so there is no time to lose. "

At this point, Qin Yuanfang no longer hesitated, nodded heavily, and left the roof silently.

After he disappeared into the darkness, Lu Yunyi's face became serious:
"We'll move in a quarter of an hour, starting from the roof."

"Don't worry, sir."

"Okay, now the time."

The night is like a heavy curtain, wrapping the earth tightly.

The moonlight was thin, and the stars seemed brighter, making the foggy village even more eerie.

Lu Yunyi and others lay on the roof, quietly looking at the many houses in the distance.

The weapon held tightly in his hand trembled slightly in the weak night breeze, reflecting spots of cold light.

I don't know since when, there was a faint smell of blood in the air.

A slight commotion came from the dense forest, breaking the original silence.

Lu Yunyi looked over and saw a group of about a hundred soldiers.

Like a ghost, he slowly walked out from the dense shadows of the trees.
They are connected together like a huge shadow, and only vague darkness can be seen.

The moonlight occasionally penetrates the clouds, casting mottled light and shadows.

The huge black shadow seemed to melt instantly when it touched Wushan Village.
The originally huge team was instantly dispersed and organized into small teams.

He moved westward from the left and right sides of the village, avoiding the lighted house in the center of the village.

Lu Yunyi pursed his lips and listened to the slight footsteps below.
Lu Yunyi quickly exchanged glances with the person next to him and waved gently towards the front.

There is no need to say more, the tacit understanding between them has made them understand each other.
Several people stood up one after another and looked from the rooftop toward the central courtyard.

At this moment, the stars in the sky are watching their movements.

The three paths move forward in parallel, and there are two levels, upper and lower, which looks quite organized.

In the darkness, teams of ten charged forward in vertical columns.

They were hidden in the alley, obscured by the shadows of the houses, with only the slightest movement visible through the moonlight.

Above the house, the four people's bodies were floating lightly.

It was like a crane flapping its wings and speeding across the rooftops!

The cold wind blew gently.
Whenever the mist is blown away, their figures will appear.
In less than an incense stick of time, Lu Yunyi led the three people to the roof of one side of the house.

Lu Yunyi lay prone on the roof, quietly watching the defense arrangements below.

Once again, he was sure that the Luchuan people before him had received military training, but the quality of the soldiers was too poor.

The guards adopted a two-three-two defense formation.
There are two people at the gate of the courtyard, three people in the courtyard, and two people at the gate.

Clearly layered and well-organized is the most common and effective method of protection.

Lu Yunyi did not give the order immediately.

Instead, he watched the soldiers continue to move forward, and finally stopped at a junction between the central and western regions.

This is a little different from the intended stopping point, but that’s okay.

At this point, Lu Yunyi no longer hesitated, his figure flashed, and he crouched down.

He looked at Feng Yunfang on the side, who had taken out a firework in his hand and was ready to fire it.

Lu Yunyi made gestures to several people continuously, and they understood what he meant.

Lu Yunyi was the first to take action. After dealing with the two people at the door, he rushed into the house and subdued one of them.

Zhang Wu then took action, dealt with the two people at the gate, and guarded the gate.
Ning Chong finally took action and dealt with the three people in the yard.

Once the action started, Feng Yunfang pulled the fireworks.

He fired it towards the open space outside as a signal for an attack, and then dropped it into the yard to assist Ning Chong.

Lu Yunyi looked at the three people and saw that they all nodded. He was relieved and waved his hand gently.
The three men scattered, leaving Feng Yunfang behind.

Soon, in less than twenty breaths, the three of them were in position.
Lu Yunyi was on the roof of the main house, while Zhang Wu walked into the alley and touched one side.
Ning Chong stayed in the middle of the wall, ready to climb into the yard at any time.

Lu Yunyi put away the dagger in his hand and drew out the short blade instead. Under the distant light, it emitted a sinister and cold light.

"call"

He took a long breath, his eyes suddenly sharpened, and his lips pursed tightly.

He flipped over and jumped down, landing in front of the two gatekeepers.

The two of them only felt their eyes go dark, and the hazy moonlight was blocked.

The eyes that were originally slightly dazed suddenly widened, the sluggishness in the brain quickly disappeared, and the whole body tensed up instead! !
have--

The two of them reacted and realized there was an assassin!
But before he could shout, Lu Yunyi narrowed his eyes and smiled.

They were so close, it was too late for them.

The power starts from the lower limbs and quickly passes through the waist.
The power climbs up the spine, finally rushes to the arms, and swings out violently!

A sharp and fast white light flashed by, and in an instant it cut across the necks of the two men.
This light flashed past the two people's astonished eyes, so fast that they had no time to react.

I felt a chill running down my neck, followed by a heart-wrenching pain.

There were two sharp wounds on their necks.
At first it was just a tiny crack, but in a flash,

Blood gushed out like a flood breaking through a dam.

Blood spurted out instantly like a red fountain that was suddenly opened.

Draws a sad arc in the air, scatters dust,

The blood loss took away their strength, and their bodies began to shake weakly.

Finally, the two heads seemed to lose their support and slowly slid off their necks, hitting the ground heavily with a dull sound.

When Zhang Wu heard the noise, a smile appeared on his honest face, and he rushed into the darkness in an instant.
He is not tall, but he is very fast.

The people in the vanguard army are those who are proficient in everything and can defeat the enemy!

Now the two people at the gate of the courtyard were attracted by Shangguan's attention, and their faces were filled with horror.
Zhang Wu felt that dealing with these two people in front of him was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.

Zhang Wu rushed in front of them with a flash of his body.

The two men noticed something and turned their heads sharply, but a long knife was coming towards them.

Phew!

The sword penetrated the front of the neck and rushed out from the back, with only the tip of the sword showing.

The Luchuan soldier was stunned, and before he could react,

Zhang Wu loosened his grip on the long sword and moved closer to the other man.

This scene seemed to shock the other person.
He couldn't understand why the long sword would be abandoned in such an important scene.

But the next moment, a grim silver light appeared on Zhang Wu's left hand.

He still had a simple smile on his face, but the dagger had already stabbed out firmly!
There was a heavier sound, and the dagger pierced into the man's heart. Then he twisted it hard with a silly smile.
The two bodies fell down one after the other.

The dull voice sounded again.

Ning Chong looked at the fallen body and climbed over the wall without any hesitation.

Without waiting for it to fall, he swung the long sword in his hand with force, and it flew out in an instant and pierced the guard's chest!
The dagger in his other hand also flew out and hit the man in the courtyard right between the eyebrows.

The two of them fell to the ground slowly.

On the opposite side, a man was drawing a long sword.

He looked at everything that happened in the courtyard with horror on his face, and also at Ning Chong.

But Ning Chong did not move, but stood there quietly, quietly pointing behind him.
Su——bang!

Sharp sparks seemed to light up the sky and the misty mountain village hidden in the darkness, and the fireworks were released.
The originally quiet Wushan Village suddenly became noisy.

More than a dozen combat teams advanced in unison and rushed out of the darkness.

The only remaining guard in the yard did not dare to look back and kept staring at Ning Chong.

This scene made Ning Chong a little stunned. Standing on the wall and looking down at his back, Feng Yunfang was also a little stunned.
What happened to this Luchuan soldier?
"Look back, there's someone." Ning Chong couldn't help but remind him.

The man's face changed drastically and his body began to tremble, but he still didn't dare to look back.

It's like pretending not to know when you know there's a ghost behind you.

Even though Feng Yunfang jumped down and made a slight sound, he didn't dare to look back.

Until the dagger pierced his back, and he felt the steel stirring in his body,

He wanted to turn back, but it was too late.

He couldn't see the scene behind him, he could only see the open door.

Inside the house, Lu Yunyi didn't expect that General Akron was so timid and actually had four guards.

But it doesn't matter, they are already lying in a pool of blood.

The heads of two of them had been chopped off, and blood was gushing out.

The other two had their necks cut open for the most part and fell to the ground in horror.

Lu Yunyi kicked the head that rolled to his feet with some disdain.

These Luchuan people look like a bad influence.

Even their bones are more brittle than those of the grassland people and will fall off if chopped.

"Who are you?"

General Akron, not wearing armor but a white undergarment, stood in a corner.

Although he was holding a long sword, it kept shaking, and he was obviously frightened.

He was extremely frightened at this moment. He looked at the four corpses on the ground and his voice trembled.

"Who are you?"

Lu Yunyi was stunned. This time Akron spoke the official language of the Ming Dynasty.
Although there is a slight accent, I can still understand it.

He immediately laughed:

"Don't you know?"

After hearing this, Akron no longer had any hope in his heart and his face turned gloomy.
This is the Dali Prefecture of the Ming Dynasty. Who else could the people coming here be if not Ming people?
"Put down your sword, kneel down and surrender. I have something to ask you."

Lu Yunyi spoke lightly, moving closer with a short blade in hand.

"Don't come over here!!!" Akron shrank into the corner, and the rustling sound of dust falling was heard.

"You still want to fight me head-on?"

Lu Yunyi stood still, raised the short blade in his hand, with a strange look in his eyes.

"do not come!!"

Akron's voice was hurried, but his body was very honest. The long sword in his hand fell off with a crisp sound.

Seeing this scene, Lu Yunyi couldn't help but laugh:
"Don't be afraid. I won't kill you if you tell the truth."

"Really?" Akron's eyes were filled with a cold light! !
"Ning Chong, Feng Yunfang, come in and tie him up." Lu Yunyi shouted.
Soon, the two rushed in. The smell of blood made them hold their breath.
The two headless corpses on the ground and the eerie and dim room were quite scary.

Soon, Akron was tied up by them.

Lu Yunyi did not stay in the yard, but ran quickly towards the west of the village with Zhang Wu.

Because it was a night attack, the battle in the west of the village went as smoothly as usual.

Before the incense stick was lit, a burst of rapid and orderly shouting broke the tranquility of Wushan Village.

That was Qian Hong's signal to attack.

More than a hundred people rushed out from all the hidden corners in an instant like tigers descending from the mountains.
The patrolling Luchuan soldiers were dealt with cleanly and neatly.
He went straight to the Luchuan soldiers who were sleeping in the houses.

Inside the house, the fire was dim and the Luchuan soldiers were deep in sleep, unaware of the impending disaster.

However, when they woke up from their dream, they were faced with a long knife coming towards them.

The sharp long knife kept slashing down,

Let them feel firsthand the sensation of flesh and blood exploding.

"kill!"

With shouts, the scouts were nimble and sharp with their swords.
Each strike of the sword landed accurately on the vital points of the Luchuan soldiers.
If it doesn't kill him, then he'll be stabbed again.

Wailing sounds were heard everywhere, and fear and despair filled the air.

The blood dyed the cold ground red, and also dyed the bed that was spliced ​​back and forth and could accommodate more than ten people red.

A suffocating, sickening smell rose to the sky.

However, the soldiers seemed not to smell it and continued to swing their swords.

By the time Lu Yunyi arrived here, the battle was over.

Teams of combat teams armed with bows and crossbows fired volleys into the house to make up the loss.

Sharp crossbow arrows are free of charge.

Qian Hong, who was standing in front of the battlefield, ran over quickly:
"Sir, the battle went well! We even found a dozen women in one room."

"No man?" There was a flash of surprise in Lu Yunyi's eyes.

Qian Hong's face was solemn, and he shook his head slowly:
"Reporting to the lord, the old people, children and men have not been found."

Lu Yunyi's eyes sparkled and he nodded slightly:

"Send more people to search everywhere, and leave no survivors of these Luchuan soldiers."

"Yes!"

The war in the west was about to break out.
Lu Yunyi did not stay here and returned to the house.

Inside the house, Akron had been stripped naked and tied up, kneeling in the yard.
Although he had more flesh than the ordinary Luchuan soldiers,

But compared with the soldiers in the front scout unit, he still looked thin.
Not to mention Lu Yunyi's tall and well-proportioned figure, the shadow could cover him completely.

Akron slowly raised his head, his nose was red from the cold and runny, with a look of deep fear on his face.

Lu Yunyi looked down at him and asked coldly:
"Tell me, how many people are entering this trip?"

Akron felt the chill in the words and couldn't help but shudder. He said in a trembling voice:

"I'll tell you the truth, can you let me go?"

A hint of helplessness flashed across Lu Yunyi's eyes.
Why do people always bargain with him?

Lu Yunyi looked at Feng Yunfang, and he immediately understood.

He aimed the crossbow in his hand at Akron's calf and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

boom!
The sound of bones breaking was heard, and Akron fell to one side and let out a shrill scream.

what----

Everything flows smoothly.

"How many of you are entering the country this time?" Lu Yunyi stepped forward and continued asking.

"Two thousand, two thousand people!!"

"You're lying. Where did those three hundred people go?"

When Akron saw his gaze shift to the man holding the crossbow, his mind exploded and he quickly shouted:

"No, no, no, there are 2,000 soldiers in the army, and the 300 are for exploration. They are the chieftains captured on the road."

"What about you? What do you belong to?"

Akron trembled and told what he knew.
After hearing this, Lu Yunyi finally understood a little and his expression became extremely strange.

Akron was also a scouting force, with a total of 500 people.

However, he did not want to take risks himself, so he selected some people from the scouting team to go out and explore the way.
He hid in Wushan Village, planning to harass the business routes after some time and then return the same way, which would be considered as a way to report back.

Feng Yunfang and Ning Chong on the side had strange expressions on their faces; their contempt for the Luchuan soldiers had reached the extreme.

The two thousand of them were the advance troops.

But Na Siyuanheng was afraid of death, so he sent out an advance team led by Akron.
Akron was also afraid of death and sent out an advance force.
As for the more than one hundred people they encountered in the forest, they were still afraid of death and sent out those chieftains' men.

Just like bamboo, each section is thinner than the last.

In the end, they were chopped down from top to bottom by the scouts of the front army.

Lu Yunyi didn't know what to do, so he asked:
"Where are the young and strong men in Wushan Village?"

Akron's body stiffened, his eyes dodged,

Seeing him like this, Lu Yunyi understood.
"Where is the body?"

"In the abandoned well at the south end of the village."

Feng Yunfang immediately understood and rushed out with two soldiers.

Lu Yunyi's face was cold and he continued to ask:

"Where is Si Won Hyung? What is his plan for the attack?"

"He is in Yushi Village, 20 miles east of Yunlong Prefecture.
He said that it was not enough to just cause trouble, and if he was going to do something, he had to do something big.
He wanted to rob the caravan, disguise himself as a merchant, and enter Yunlongzhou."
