Chapter 168: Clever Destruction Patrol Outwitted Baotou City

The Mongolian patrol team that came out of Baotou was patrolled by a hundred households with two signs, a total of 23 people. This hundred households, like the Mongolian soldiers behind them, were reluctant to come out. However, the Mongol military discipline was very strict, and they did not dare to be the slightest vague about orders. In fact, their military discipline is not strict, these Mongolians are usually wild on the steppe, there is no strict military discipline, let alone fighting, daily management will be very difficult.

So the hundred households who received the order got up early to drink milk tea, ate some mutton, and came out with people. Their task today is to reconnoiter and patrol in the direction of naturalization, and if they can't return at night, they also bring out the stove. Because the grassland is so big, their patrol range is also very large.

These twenty or so Mongols had forty or fifty horses on horseback. This hundred households personally led the team to the front. According to the Mongolian custom, after the horse comes out, it usually marches forward at a trott. Li Jing and the more than 100 of them, judging the direction of their travel, surrounded them with a semi-circular encirclement. These Mongols didn't notice it at all, because Li Jing's grassland camouflage had already melted them into the grassland.

But the horses were more sensitive than their masters, and when they approached Li Jing and them, they couldn't help but stop and look up and neigh. People who grew up on horseback have a lot of trust in horses, and when they notice that the horse is behaving abnormally, they are all alert, and they stop the horse and look around. One sign didn't see anything unusual and said, "Did you see rats again?" ”

Baihu didn't see anything wrong, and said: "Everyone is in good spirits!" Then he struck his horse and walked forward.

In fact, Li Jing, who was lying on the grass, heard the sound of the horse, and they were sweating nervously. It's not that they're afraid of these two dozen people, but they're afraid that they haven't ridden their horses and let them go, and if they can't catch the leader of their team, the mission will be considered a failure.

Fortunately, they never found Li Jing and them.

When these Mongols walked forward a little longer, Baihu felt that there was no problem, and was about to let the horse run, when a person suddenly jumped up on the grass, and before this Baihu could react, he was thrown off the horse by the neck of the jumper. This hundred households were just about to struggle, and they felt that they had been beaten on the back of their necks and didn't know anything. Behind the hundred households, the head of the brand and the cavalry quickly drew their swords when they saw that someone suddenly jumped out of the grass. The head of the sign closest to Baihu had already seen Baihu being pressed on the grass and knocked unconscious, he shouted and beat his horse and waved his knife to rush over and cut down this ghost-like person who was covered in grass and painted on his face. However, before he could reach him, this ghost-like man waved his hand "poof", and he felt that something had hit him in the head, and then he didn't know anything.

The cavalry behind the head of this sign were no better. At the same time, many ghostly people stood up around them, all holding in their hands what they don't know about, and those who waved their swords to resist were all knocked off their horses. In the end, only two young Mongol soldiers dropped their swords, dismounted and surrendered.

Since there was not much noise, none of the Mongolian horses ran away.

Li Jing and the others checked and shot the Mongolian soldiers who were not completely dead. Riding a horse with the captives back to the makeshift camp.

When Li Kui saw Li Jing and them coming back, he gave a thumbs up and said, "Boy! Not bad. ”

Li Jingyile said: "One head was captured, and there are two cubs. Uncle Kui, will you judge or will we judge? ”

"Oops! Stinky boy, I'm still competing with your Uncle Kui. Li Kui knew that Li Jing was teasing him, "Your kid sent someone who could write to help Lao Tzu remember." Look at how Uncle Kui interrogated the captives. ”

"Come on, help Uncle Kui record." Li Jing smiled and deliberately provoked Li Kui and said, "Uncle Kui, if you can't judge it, don't hold it up, just say a word." ”

"You stinky boy." Li Kui shouted, "Bring those two little cubs here!" ”

Two trembling captives were brought up, and when Li Kui saw that the two prisoners kneeling on the ground were teenagers, Li Kui said to the interpreter, "Ask where they came from, and why are they here?" ”

The two captives replied, "Came out of Baotou and patrolled in the direction of naturalization." ”

"Ask them how many people are in Baotou City? Armament situation? ”

Both little captives shook their heads and said, "I don't know!" ”

Li Kui said: "If you don't know, then you are useless." Someone took the two of them down and cut them down! ”

The two little captives, knowing that they were pulling them down and cutting them, were so frightened that they kowtowed, saying that they really didn't know anything, and that they were taken out to fight by adults, and their adults were all killed. It's not that they don't say it, it's that they really don't know anything.

The soldier who pulled the two captives looked at Li Kui, which meant that he couldn't scare anything. Li Kui slapped his thigh and scolded: "What are you looking at me doing, shouldn't the waste be cut even more!" What are we doing here? It's reconnaissance. Can you take a captive? ”

The soldiers knew that this was not to scare the captives but to really kill people. One of the two of them, they dragged down the two captives and cut them down. At this time, the hundred households had already woken up, were tied up and lay on the ground, scolding something in Mongolian.

Li Kui said: "Pull him over and slap his mouth first." Wait until he stops scolding before talking. ”

These soldiers all came from Yulin, and when they mentioned the Mongols, they hated it so much that the roots of their teeth itched, and the two of them pressed this hundred households, and the two of them came up again and began to sobbed their mouths. Now, the hand is not light.

Li Kui shouted: "You fucking stupid! I'm going to have him talk in a moment! ”

Only then did they stop their hands, and a soldier said, "Uncle Kui, this one will be cut off in a while, so let's relieve our anger!" ”

"Get out!" Li Kui saw that the captive's face was covered with blood, and said, "Come back!" Wipe your face and I'll ask questions. ”

The men shook their heads and said, "You have to know that it is so difficult, and we will clean him up after asking." ”

Li Kui saw that the captive's face was swollen and unpresentable, and the blood made them wipe it unpresentable, Li Kui was so angry in his heart, but he wanted to ask about the situation.

"Ask him, how many soldiers are there in Baotou City?"

But when the interpreter had translated the words to the captive, he squirted out a mouthful of blood with his leaky mouth, and whined and cursed.

Li Kui was so angry that he wanted to call someone to beat him again, but seeing him like this, he was afraid of beating him to death. At this time, Li Jingjin said: "Uncle Kui is angry, let the little nephew come!" ”

Li Kui snorted with his nose, "Little rabbit cub, look at you!" ”

Li Jing waved her hand, and two people came over and took the hundred households away.

"Oops! Where did you take him? Li Kui said, "I want to see what tricks you have?" ”

Li Jing said: "Uncle Kui, we are not like you, we use brute strength!" ”

"I'd like to see what tricks you use?" Li Kui said, "Where did you take him?" ”

"Our interrogation methods were confidential. Just see the results in a moment! Li Jing continued to be angry with Li Kui.

"Boy! Keep it secret from me? Li Kui nodded at Li Jing and asked.

"You don't keep it a secret from you, but I can't tell you the magic weapon of our housekeeper in vain?" Li Jing said and left Li Kui for a short distance.

"Stinky boy, come with me!" Li Kui said: "You don't know what your Uncle Kui eats on? ”

"So be it! No more, after returning to the kiln, you will take care of my wine for a month. I'll tell you how we deal with such people. Li Jing began to negotiate conditions with Li Kui.

However, Li Kui felt that this condition was acceptable, because in this way, Li Jing could at least drink with him. "Okay, it's decided. You say how you dealt with him! ”

Just when Li Jing and Li Kui were talking and laughing for a while, Li Jing's people came back and said, "All recruits, there are more than 20,000 cavalry in Baotou, and they are gathered from several tribes. Li Jing's people also drew a simple map of Baotou city defense.

Li Kui asked, "What, this guy can still help you draw?" ”

"Yes, he wants to die a good death." Li Jing's people said very calmly.

Li Jing said with a smile next to her: "To deal with these people who don't shoot to death, there must be something that makes them afraid." ”

"What about people?" Li Kui asked.

"Dead!"

Li Kui glanced at Li Jing and said, "Boy, it's ruthless enough!" ”

Li Jing said: "It's still early, let's go to the front of Baotou to have a look!" Uncle Kui. ”

"More than 1,000 of us against more than 20,000 people, that's a bit much!" Li Kui sat still and didn't move.

"Uncle Kui, what are you talking about?" Li Jing was a little surprised and asked, "Do you want to pack the attention of the head?" ”

"You kid is not promising, you can do something about stealing chickens and dogs." Li Kui said.

"Oops! That's not going to work, Uncle Kui. Li Jing didn't expect Li Kui's appetite to be so big, and said, "Our mission is to investigate?" ”

"I hear you clearly, it's an armed reconnaissance." Li Kui said: "We haven't seen Baotou City yet, you pee your pants?" ”

"It's not! Uncle Kui, our mission is over, and we have to withdraw when we need to withdraw. I'm waiting for news from us at home! "Li Jing is still very steady.

"Let's talk about it after reading Baotou!" Li Kui said: "The clothes of those Mongols are all carried on horses. ”

Li Jing and Li Kui walked towards Baotou as a team. On the way, Li Kui said: "I heard what Mr. Ouyang He meant, I want to take Baotou down and use it as our foothold in the Hetao area. If we can take Baotou down, is it the first achievement? ”

"Our mission is to come out to investigate, and if we act without authorization, it would be good to go back and not be dealt with by military law." Li Jing said.

"How can there be such a reason, we have made great contributions and will be dealt with by military law." Li Kui seems to have made up his mind to do it.

Li Jing said: "We still have too few people? It's too risky! We didn't even have much of a heavy weapon. There were a couple of mortars, two heavy machine guns. ”

"What are we holding in our hands?" Li Kui said: "When we enter the city, no matter how many cavalry they have, our rifles will surprise them with a hundred, and another 20,000 people will not be enough for us to fight." Besides, you can also use **** to do something like stealing chickens and dogs. We can do it if we can succeed in the sneak attack, and it's okay to withdraw if we can't. ”

Li Jing and Li Kui came to the front of Baotou City, and hid the cavalry in the woods from a distance, and let the cavalry commander lead the team. Li Jing and Li Kui took more than a hundred special forces and circled around Baotou City.

Li Jing and Li Kui found that Baotou City did not seem very nervous, and there were still many people coming in and out of the city gate.

Li Kui looked very rough, but his heart was also very careful, and he said to Li Jing: "Boy! Through the battle of naturalization, I can see clearly. If they face each other, they Mongols ten will not be able to deal with one of us. Especially on the city walls, which are not covered and blocked, it is useless how many of them are. If we can take the wall, and attack them on both sides along the wall, and surround them in the city, we will be on the wall, and we will shoot at them. What do you see as the result? ”

Li Kui's words moved Li Jing's heart. Li Jing said: "This is not difficult, their vigilance is not high, and they do not know that the naturalization has been returned to us." I saw this, so I took the men to change into the armor of the Mongols, took their tokens, and asked Prince Tori's guide to pretend to be the Mongol hundred, and when it was a little darker, we would go into the city. Then quietly ambush it. Let's cooperate and strive to win Baotou. ”

"Hey! Good boy! Uncle Kui didn't misread you? Li Kui was happy this time.

"I think I was dragged into the water by you this time, just wait for Uncle Shi and Mr. Ouyang to clean up our house!" Li Jing said.

"Hey! will be subject to the king's order outside. Li Kui also dragged a sentence.

The two of them laughed out loud!

Li Jing and Li Kui led the people back into the woods, summoned the commander and deputy commander of the cavalry regiment, and the officers above the battalion level for a while, and explained to them the idea of taking action tonight. Hearing that they were going to pack their heads, these officers were all excited, they all thought that they would go back after the investigation, but they didn't expect such a good thing.

Li Jing and Li Kui took these officers to make a detailed battle plan around the simple map of Baotou. Even in the event of a defeat, the route of retreat was arranged. After the meeting, Li Kui asked everyone to go back and told the soldiers to go back to sleep first, otherwise they would lose their energy at night.

Looking at the same, Li Jing singled out twenty-three people who had changed into Mongol armor. Li Jing asked Li Kui: "Uncle Kui, do you already have a plan with these armors?" ”

"I have some ideas, but I don't know why." Li Kui said.

"It seems that people are still old and treacherous! We've all been caught up in by you. Li Jing said.

"Little bunny, how do you talk?" Li Kui deliberately said: "It's too late if you don't do it now." ”

"Forget it! We've fallen into your trap, so admit it! Li Jing said.

Seeing that the sun had begun to set in the west, Li Jing hid his weapon, took the weapons of the Mongols, and stretched the line according to the Mongolian patrol, and walked towards the east gate of Baotou City. This Baotou city is not big, but there is a moat around it.

Li Kui also led people to follow Li Jing and them from afar, but once Li Jing and their entry into the city was discovered, they went out to respond.

Leading the way in front of Hyakuho is Prince Tori's man, who speaks Mongolian. Li Jing followed him, pretending to be a card header.

The east gate was darkened earlier in the shadow of the sun, and just as the guards were about to close the gate, they saw another group of men and horses coming. The guards at the gate knew at a glance that a patrol had returned, so they had to wait for them, shouting from afar: "It's not too soon, the gate is about to close." If you don't hurry up, I'll lock you out and let you spend the night with the wolves outside. ”

Li Jing and the others immediately hit their horses and ran two steps faster. The gatekeeper looked at them and asked, "Which Qianhu are you from?" ”

Prince Tori's men were still very calm, and according to the captive's confession, they said which thousand households they belonged to. At this time, Li Jing obviously saw that the gatekeeper was suspicious of them.

The gatekeeper asked, "Look at your faces?" ”

"We're going out in a different way." After the man pretending to be a hundred households finished speaking, he threw the token impatiently to the questioner, and said, "Are you finished?" No one wants to go out. ”

"You've worked so hard! Let's get inside, we're closing. ”

Li Jing and the others entered the city gate and breathed a sigh of relief. But don't dare to be careless, it's not safe to find a foothold, and if someone interrogates in detail, it will be revealed immediately. Fortunately, the city walls blocked out the light, and the city was a little dark. When Li Jing entered the city, he looked around, and when there was an alley not far from the east gate, they turned in. I saw a yard that was very compact all around. Li Jing thought that she couldn't stay on the streets of the city for too long, no matter who this family was, she had to occupy it first.

Li Jing personally dismounted and came to the door and knocked on the door. The door opened quickly, and a voice came out of the door at the same time, but Li Jing couldn't understand it, and spoke Mongolian. At this time, Prince Tori's people reacted quickly, pushed Li Jing away, and greeted him and said in Mongolian that Li Jing and they didn't understand.

However, Li Jing knew that the current courtyard was inhabited by Mongolians. Although Li Jing couldn't understand what he said, he could also hear that his words were not good, at this time Li Jing saw Prince Tori's people turn around and make a look, Li Jing and several of them took out a pistol loaded with ***, and "poof" hit the three Mongolian soldiers near the courtyard gate.

Prince Tori's man said, "There is still a thousand households in the main house, and there should be a few guards. "Because the average thousand households come out to live with a dozen people.

Li Jing and the others rushed quickly towards the main room in the courtyard. At this time, in the hall of the main house, a thousand Mongolian households were drinking with two women, and there were seven or eight guards standing behind him.

Originally, it was very safe here, because as soon as the city gate was closed, the tall walls protected it, and no one could enter. These guards also knew in their hearts that nothing would happen, and they were not very vigilant.

Li Jing and the others suddenly rushed in, Qianhu was startled, and was about to scold, but when he saw that something was wrong, he shouted: "Someone!" ”

In fact, the guards had already drawn their swords and jumped up, and Li Jing raised their hands to shoot a few shots "poof", and they hit the guards. At this time, Chiho also drew his sword and rushed over. Li Jing grabbed his leg "poof" twice, this thousand households, ordinary kneeling, but still scolding in his mouth.

The soldiers behind Li Jing went over to educate him for a while, and then he was honest and didn't scold.

Prince Torrey's people questioned him for a while, and said to Li Jing: "This house turned out to be Han Chinese. After they came, they killed the Han people, and this thousand households lived here. The two Han women were also robbed. Now there are almost no Han Chinese in the city, and they have either been killed or run away. ”

As soon as Li Jing waved his hand, the soldiers took this thousand households out and cut them down.

Li Jing comforted the two Han women and said, "Don't be afraid, we will take Baotou back from the Mongols tonight, and this place will always be our Han people." ”

At this time, the two women had recovered from Fang Cai's fright, and cried and said: "Great hero, you should kill all these Mongols, they don't treat us Han people as human beings, in their eyes, we Han people are not even as good as pigs and dogs." ”

Li Jing said: "Okay, just do what you say." But from now on, you two are not allowed to come out of the house. If you come out, you will die. ”

Li Jing couldn't leave hidden dangers, but she couldn't bear to kill two Han women. They were not allowed to come out.

Li Jing is very satisfied with this small courtyard, this is a Han courtyard, the surroundings are very safe, and the most important thing is that it is not far from the East City Gate.

Li Jing and the others entered the courtyard, and left the sentry to seize the time to rest. Before arriving at the time, Li Jing and the others left a few people to watch the horses, put on Mongolian armor and lined up to pretend to be a patrol, and walked towards the east gate. Just when Li Jing and the others came to the side road under the city gate and went up to the city wall, they were stopped by several soldiers. These Mongolian soldiers standing guard felt a little strange, why did these people go up to the city wall in the middle of the night?

In Mongolian, they asked, "Where are you from?" Don't you know that you are not allowed to go up the city wall at night? ”

Prince Tori's people couldn't find a reason to go up to the city wall, and glanced back at Li Jing. Li Jing and the others took out their pistols and beat these Mongolian soldiers to death in the old way.

Li Jing: They stepped forward to hold their corpses as they shot. Slowly lower it so as not to alarm the sentinels in the city. Leaving a few soldiers pretending to be sentinels, Li Jing and the others carried the bodies of several soldiers who had been killed, and quietly walked towards the city gate. The tower of this city gate is facing the east, but the sentinels were sent in the north and south directions, and when they saw Li Jing and they came in line, the two sentries in the south were very strange, they thought it was the leader who came to check the sentry on a whim today. Both straightened up. Li Jing and the others came to them, and one by one they waved their knives and cut their throats, and held them again. In this way, the two sentinels on the north side of the tower were solved. Li Jing's men were divided into two teams, north and south, and walked along the city wall in two directions, and they all withdrew after touching a few sentry posts in the middle.

Li Jing took out a flashlight, covered it with a red cloth, and flashed it outside the city! There were flashlights outside the city. After a while, Li Jing's people crossed the moat and quietly came to the city wall next to the city gate tower, and Li Jing tied the rope to the battlements of the city wall. And he put a great rope under the wall.

One by one, the people under the city climbed up the rope to the city wall. With more than 100 people, Li Jing's heart is steady. Two small groups marched along the southern and northern walls, led by soldiers in Mongol armor. Their task was to clear the sentinels along the way, until they brought the corner towers of the two walls. Because the Mongol sentries on the entire eastern city wall were not cleared, Li Kui and his troops could not guarantee concealment when they entered the city.

Wait for the two corner towers of the city wall to send a signal that it has been occupied. Li Jing sent out twenty people. He came under the city gate and cleared the guards there. Immediately began to direct the soldiers to put down the drawbridge over the moat "squeak". Li Jing used a flashlight to send a signal to Li Kui and them. Li Kui and the others replied to the signal, and they all led their horses and walked towards the east gate of Baotou. Their horses' hooves were wrapped in sheepskins so that they would not make too much noise.

After Li Kui and the others crossed the drawbridge, Li Jing's people pushed the city gate open. The team brought by Li Kui was led by Li Jing's people, and they all came to the city wall along the side roads on both sides of the city gate tower.

After the brigade came in, Li Jing's men closed the city gate again, and then lifted the drawbridge up.

Li Kui patted Li Jing on the shoulder and said, "Listen to your Uncle Kui!" What do you think? Let's start killing on both sides, right? ”

"Wait, Uncle Kui!" Li Jing said.
