"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 1007
The bright moon hangs high, and in the border area of ??Fancheng, a rebel patrol team of more than a hundred people is patrolling the border area vigilantly with torches.
The Qinghe Army has assembled on a large scale in the Sanchuan area, and it looks like it will attack the province in the middle of the river. The rebel troops in the border area are also facing a big enemy.
"Keep your eyes open and be vigilant!"
Although the Fancheng area is still more than a hundred miles away from the Sanchuan area, the rebels here have also raised their vigilance.
The Qinghe army is brave and good at fighting, and is extremely insidious and cunning. They often don't play cards according to the routine, so the rebel army attaches great importance to the Qinghe army.
When the Qinghe Army was weak in the past, whether it was the rebel army or the imperial army, they regarded the Qinghe Army as just a bandit.
But now that the Qinghe army has occupied the land of the five provinces and grown into a behemoth, they cannot be underestimated.
The soldiers of the rebel army patrolled everywhere with vigilant eyes, but apart from the cold wind blowing, there was no ghost around.
"Go, go to the next place to have a look."
After confirming that the area was safe, the rebel patrol headed to the distance again with pine torches.
When the pine torches of the rebels gradually became weaker and finally disappeared into the darkness, a ghostly figure stood up from the wild grass.
The ghostly figure looked around vigilantly, and after confirming that there was no danger, it whistled to the back.
Dense black shadows climbed up from the wild grass, and they were also covered in camouflage clothes made of wild grass, each of them looked like "savages".
? Commander Li Changqing and Chief of Staff Zhou Han of the advancing column waved their hands. Under the moonlight, 20,000 Qinghe Army elites quietly crossed the border area and entered the territory of Hezhong Province.
Soon, the 20,000 Qinghe Army brothers disappeared into the darkness again, and a group of scouts left behind swept away the traces of the army's passing, and quickly followed.
When the next patrol of the rebels arrived here, Li Changqing and the others had already advanced towards the depth of the river province.
The main force of the rebel army in the Fancheng area has been transferred to the front line of Sanchuan City to defend against the possible large-scale offensive of the Qinghe Army.
Therefore, the rebel forces in the Fancheng area are quite empty. Except for some important towns, only checkpoints have been placed at the intersections of some major roads.
On such a night, the rebels never expected that a Qinghe army of more than 20,000 people would pass under their noses.
Under the moonlight, Li Changqing and his army were led by the guide of the Military Intelligence Department under the Intelligence Investigation Institute, and rushed north along the predetermined route.
At dawn, they had already passed through the Fancheng area and entered the Fenhe area without a sound.
"Stop advancing and hide on the spot."
? Seeing the white belly of the sky in the distance, Li Changqing, the commander of the advancing column who marched all night, gave the order to rest.
"Stop advancing and hide in place!"
"Stop advancing and hide in place!"
Orders were issued one by one, and the 20,000 Qinghe Army brothers quickly drove into a dense forest beside the road, preparing to take a rest in hiding.
"A count of the number of people in each banner battalion."
"The security post is placed two miles away."
It wasn't until some arrangements were made that the commander Li Changqing was able to breathe a sigh of relief.
Although Li Changqing and the others have practiced marching at night countless times, the practice and actual combat are different.
They are now in the enemy-occupied area. When marching, they must be ready to fight the enemy at any time. Once they are scattered, the chance of survival is very small.
Last night, Li Changqing kept his nerves in a state of high tension, because he wanted to ensure that he went to the Baishan province to ensure that the 20,000 brothers lived as long as possible until the end of the war.
"Old Li, you rest first, and then I rest."
After the chief of staff Zhou Han settled the troops, he saw the exhausted Li Changqing and suggested.
"Well, we need to send someone to contact the tiger. Tonight we will pass through the rebels' second line of defense." Li Changqing nodded.
"Well, I know, you go to rest first."
When Li Changqing and the others sent someone to contact Xu Yong, code-named Tiger, Xu Yong, the commander of the rebel army, was not idle.
Xu Yong's troops were deployed in the Fenhe area, and there were also several other corps of the rebel army deployed here.
Xu Yong defected to the imperial court according to Chen Ziang's order, and served under the command of Xu Zhenxiong, Governor of Jiangbei Province.
When the Qinghe Army occupied Jiangbei Province, Xu Yong, a general, was ordered to turn around and join the rebels.
The troops under Xu Yong's command are powerful, although the rebels didn't trust him very much at the beginning.
However, the troops led by Xu Yong fought fiercely with the imperial court, beheaded several imperial generals as votes, and their shadow guards thoroughly investigated Xu Yong's previous reality, and learned that he made his fortune from the uprising The army started, and he had nothing to do with other troops, and the rebel army completely accepted him.
However, the rebels would never have imagined that this hero with outstanding military exploits would be a super undercover agent sent to them by the Qinghe Army.
Because Xu Yong is good at fighting tough battles, he has become the mainstay of the rebels on the front line in Hezhong.
He and several other corps were stationed in the Fenhe area, on the one hand to defend the imperial army, and on the other hand to serve as the second line of defense against the Qinghe army.
Compared with the front-line troops who are facing the enemy, these rebel troops on the second-line are much more relaxed.
When Li Changqing and the others arrived in the Fenhe area, Xu Yong, the regiment leader, invited several other regiments to drink together.
In the mansion in Fenhefu City, a series of exquisite dishes were put on the table, making people mouth watering.
"We brothers haven't had a drink together for quite a while, today we won't go home without getting drunk!"
Xu Yong, a bearded titan, was so proud that he ordered his personal guards to bring up more than ten jars of Yunxi wine.
"Old Xu, it's still your generosity to treat us to drink Yunxi wine."
Seeing the more than a dozen altars of Yunxi wine worth thousands of gold, the eyes of the other rebel regiment leaders lit up.
Because Yunxi wine is expensive, there has always been a price but no market. Xu Yong has so many here, which also aroused the greed in their stomachs.
"Hey, I will give you all the good things I have. You will benefit from it in the future. Don't forget me, Old Xu." Xu Hu laughed.
"Of course, we dare not forget."
"Brother Xu, I won't say anything. If you need my help in the future, just say hello."
"That's what you said."
Xu Yong said with a smile while pouring wine for them.
"A gentleman never goes back on his word."
"Okay, let's have a drink first, and talk while drinking."
Amid the crisp sound of wine bowls colliding, Xu Hu and these regiment leaders also drank one.
After a few bowls of wine, the atmosphere became lively, and everyone didn't have so many scruples about speaking.
"I heard that His Majesty is going to appoint a deputy commander to fight against the bandits on the southern front. Do you have any ideas?" Xu Yong asked with a smile.
"Old Xu, don't you want to be the one?" said a corps leader whose face was flushed from drinking.
"If I have the support of a few brothers, I, Xu Yong, still want to try." Xu Yong said bluntly.
"We definitely support you. Your Ninth Corps is the best at fighting, that's obvious to all." A corps leader shouted.
"Yes, I support you too."
"If you support me, I won't let you support me in vain. Twenty boxes of gold, silver and jewelry per person, and three thousand pieces of standard weapons are interesting enough, right?"
