The moon is dark and the wind is high, the dense jungle is dark, and the low roar of wild animals can be heard from time to time.
In these lofty mountains, tents are dotted all over the flat place next to the stream.
There are also some Hanhai troops who set up camps in some jungles, and the entire camps are scattered within a few miles.
After all, the mountainous area is no different from the plain area. The terrain here is extremely complicated, with steep cliffs and deep streams interlaced. There is really no place suitable for the army to set up camp.
Therefore, an ace field team and three regular field teams commanded by field team leader Leng Kai had to scatter to find a suitable place to set up camp.
Fortunately, all the soldiers carried ten days' worth of dry food. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to transport logistical supplies on this rugged and almost impenetrable mountain road.
Compared with these Hanhai soldiers who have stayed in the plains for a long time, the Baiyun people who have been living in the mountains are familiar with the jungle, which is one of the reasons why it has been difficult for the Hanhai army to destroy them.
"Strengthen your vigilance, don't be taken away by wild beasts at night."
In a camp next to the stream, the leader of the 14th field team, surrounded by more than 20 guards, held a torch to check the various guard posts.
Seeing those sentry posts that were either open or hidden, the leader of the 14th field team also carefully told them to be more vigilant.
After all, mountainous areas are no better than plain areas. In addition to enemies hiding in the dark, there are also many ferocious beasts here, so I dare not be careless.
"Team leader, don't worry, if the beast dares to come, tomorrow we will stew meat in an iron pot!"
Some officers were acquainted with the head of the fourteenth team, so they laughed and joked.
"Don't be careless, kid, if something goes wrong, I'll take you as a questioner!"
"Follow the team leader!" the officer said with a smile.
The leader of the 14th field team went back to his tent to rest after inspecting the guard posts in various places.
The roads in the mountains are difficult, especially with such a large army. For Hanhai soldiers, marching during the day is simply suffering.
The distance of fifty miles does not seem far, but the road in the mountain is winding, and it is extremely exhausting to climb uphill and down the river.
Not to mention the exhaustion of the soldiers in full armor, many of them were bitten by some mosquitoes and had blisters on the soles of their feet, so they were exhausted.
After setting up camp, the exhausted soldiers also rested early, after all, they had to continue marching tomorrow.
The sentry posts of the Hanhai soldiers also showed strong fighting spirit, and the 14th field team was the rear guard. In fact, they had nothing to worry about.
After all, there are still three field teams in front, and nowhere is found in front. They are in the rear of the team, but they are safer.
However, this time the coalition forces of the Baiyun tribe and the Qinghe army fought against their rearguard force.
In the middle of the night, a lightly armed force quietly passed through the jungle and approached the 14th field team camped next to the stream.
Compared with the Hanhai soldiers who were all in armor and battle robes, the equipment of the Qinghe army and the Baiyun tribe was much simpler.
Only the generals of the Qinghe Army are equipped with standard armor, while ordinary soldiers wear standard black military uniforms, and are unable to equip large-scale armor.
The warriors of the Baiyun tribe, not to mention armor, have all kinds of weapons. Many soldiers are hunters recruited by various mountain villages of the Baiyun tribe.
Fortunately, although these Baiyun warriors have crude weapons, they are very united and not lacking in bravery.
In particular, many of them live by hunting in the mountains, so their archery skills are also quite good.
There were not many lightly armed troops in this raid, only 3,000 Qinghe troops and 2,000 Baiyun soldiers.
However, they were all carefully selected elites. Under the leadership of the Baiyun warriors, they moved forward like ghosts. The team of 5,000 people only made a faint sound in the jungle.
"Puff!"
"Woo¡ª¡ª"
In front of the entire team, there are elite scouts from the Qinghe army active, and they are responsible for dealing with those scouts from the Hanhai soldiers.
Some of the sea scouts scattered in the jungle were exhausted from marching during the day, and when many of them woke up when they heard the movement, the sharp blades had already cut into their throats.
"Safety¡ª¡ª"
Now solve a few more?After the scouts from the sea soldiers, a scout from the Qinghe army looked around vigilantly, and said in a low voice.
"Phew!"
But the next moment, a sharp arrow flew into the air, piercing through the chest of this Qinghe army scout.
"There is someone on the tree!"
Another scout from the Qinghe Army saw his companion fall down, and subconsciously raised his crossbow to shoot.
However, several arrows shot in his direction, and when he heard the shrill sound of piercing through the air, he hastily rolled and dodged the arrows.
"Puff puff!"
The rest of the Qinghe army scouts pulled the triggers of their crossbows one after another, and shot towards the tree, and some of them fell down with a thud.
There are also the nimble Hanhai scouts who slid down the tree trunk, and then ran towards their camp.
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
These elite scouts of the vast sea hopped and moved to dodge the arrows shooting from behind, while shouting loudly for warning.
"Damn it, go!"
The scouts of the Qinghe Army were all the best of the best. They didn't expect to miss it, and they chased after them in despair, holding their sabers.
"There's no need to hide, the fastest speed, press all up!"
Lu Quan, the commander of the 26th Banner in the field who was in charge of the night attack, also gave a cold shout, and led 5,000 people to rush to Hanhaibing's camp.
"Enemy attack!"
"Ready to fight!"
Zhengxiang, who was sleeping, was awakened by the Hanhai soldiers. Hearing the enemy attack, they got up one by one and got out of the tent.
"Let the arrow, let the arrow!"
Seeing the Hanhai soldiers hastily assembled under the light of the fire, Lu Quan, the head of the banner, decisively ordered the archers to shoot.
Arrows as dense as locusts shot out from the darkness, and the Hanhai soldiers who were hastily assembled fell down in a large piece, and screams rang out one after another.
The hunting bows of the Baiyun warriors and the covering shooting of the hand crossbows of the Qinghe Army almost became the focus of care wherever there was fire and people could be seen.
The fires that Han Haibing lit were to prevent wild beasts, and now the flames exposed their figures, making them living targets in the dark.
"Kill!"
In the darkness, the shouts of mountains and tsunami sounded, and the soldiers of Qinghe Army and Baiyun Tribe, like tigers descending the mountain, charged towards the Hanhai camp distributed along the stream.
Facing the surging enemies, many panicked Hanhai soldiers retreated subconsciously, forgetting that there was a stream behind them, and many fell into the stream.
Some Hanhai soldiers subconsciously approached their officers, trying to form an formation to protect themselves.
However, they became the targets of the crossbows, and after shooting them in turn, they scattered like birds.
"Block them!"
Hanhai officers, who were on guard at night, led Hanhai soldiers to meet them, trying to block the coalition soldiers who rushed over and buy time for their troops to assemble.
