Astral Apostle

Chapter 199: 198 Night Camp Alone

  Chapter 199

  The camp was quiet in the middle of the night. Except for the patrol posts, most of the soldiers had rested. No one knew that a figure was wandering in the camp like a ghost, taking the lives of officers.

   I don't know how long it took, and suddenly, a shrill cry ripped through the night.

   "Enemy attack!"

  Dangdangdang, the rapid and harsh sound of the gong sounded, awakening the entire camp.

  The soldiers rushed out of the camp one by one, but they didn't find any trouble, and they were suddenly in shock and wondered what was going on.

   Everyone turned their heads and looked around, and found that everyone was blank.

   An officer should have come forward to give orders, but no one showed up at this moment, and many soldiers were at a loss for a while.

   At this moment, a patrol sentry suddenly screamed.

   "There are assassins! Lord Commander is dead!"

The news of    spread to hundreds of thousands, and the entire camp was instantly fried.

  Because there was no command, many people scurried like headless flies, while a few soldiers spontaneously stabilized their colleagues and gathered towards the source of the shouting.

   After a while, the soldiers in the camp were considered stable, and when they figured out the situation, they were suddenly shocked.

   The entire team of middle and high-ranking officers was almost wiped out. Not only was Liu Tongzhi's throat slit, but most of the commanders and heads of the battalions were assassinated and killed in the tents.

  No assassins were found at the sentry post. Later, a group of people patrolled and passed the camp of the killed officer and found that the guards were missing. The tent was eerily quiet, and they smelled blood. Only then did they realize that someone was assassinating in the camp.

  The murderer did not show up, but in Liu Tongzhi's tent, he wrote a paragraph in blood:

   "Luhe Chen Feng, come here for a visit!"

   Now Chen Feng is very famous in Luhe, and many soldiers have heard of it, and they are frightened.

   Soon, everyone took out the corpses of officers at all levels and lined them up one by one.

   Everyone was stabbed to the throat, even the generals who showed good martial arts skills on weekdays were killed with a sword, and no one showed any signs of resistance.

   Numerous soldiers looked terrified.

   This Chen Feng sneaked into the camp without a sound and took the lives of most of the officers... This person is really a Yama!

   The middle and high-ranking officers who are qualified to call the shots are almost dead, the command system is semi-paralyzed, and the army is in chaos.

   Many soldiers were stunned, not knowing what to do, whether to continue to suppress the bandits, or to return home.

  ... Moreover, Chen Feng may not have left, and he is still in the camp.

   For a time, many soldiers were in danger and dared not stand alone. Their morale fell to the bottom, and their hearts were fluctuating.

   However, taking advantage of the chaos, Zhou Jing had already done his job and fled away quietly.

   On the soil slope, Zhou Jing took off the "borrowed" uniforms of officers and soldiers and looked at the chaotic camp from a distance.

   The light of the torches was like a dense nighttime firefly, and all the soldiers became startled, and they searched around with torches in groups.

   "This wave should be able to kill the Luhe generals with fear. In the future, if an officer leads an order to deal with me, I will also weigh my own life."

  The fire was reflected in Zhou Jing's eyes.

   He opened the panel and looked at the income of this investment.

   There are two more career deeds, one is [Single Gun Ping Ershan] some time ago, and the other is [Lonely Walk Night Camp] just obtained tonight, each of which provides fame and increases daily income.

The milestone completion of   【Number One in the World】and【Tu Wanweixiong】has also improved a little, but there is still a long way to go.

   The synchronization rate of the fourth apostle, Chen Feng, has been mentioned at 50.6%, reaching the third stage, which is a good progress. At the same time, with the blessing of purple martial arts qualifications and practice acceleration, Chen Feng's skills have been slightly upgraded in battle.

   The levels of several martial arts he knows are not low. Each level is much more difficult than when he was a beginner, but the bonuses provided each time are also higher.

  Auxiliary function [Character level system], which has been upgraded from level 3 to level 5, providing 3 additional attributes, and Zhou Jing threw it into the resistance as usual.

   "This time, the harvest is not bad. It mainly focuses on fame. The impact of what I did is not small, and the income of information-state particles is estimated to be not small..."

   Zhou Jing thought slightly, turned his head and walked away, leaving the chaotic camp behind him.

  …

   The commander-in-chief died, Anzhou's army was headless, and he finally chose to return home.

   The scouts who were searching outside were also surprised to learn the situation, so they could only stop chasing Zhou Jing and retreated together.

   The bandit-suppressing troops had only set out for a few days when they came back in despair, and there was an uproar in the state capital.

  The only remaining officer in the army went to see the prefect, and bit the bullet and told the whole story.

   The prefect of Anzhou looked confused, as if he was listening to a scripture from heaven, and asked in surprise: "Then how could Chen Feng sneak into the thousands of troops and kill Liu Tongzhi and other generals?"

   "This... This person is extraordinary in martial arts and acts as an assassin, and no one can stop him..."

The    officer responded cautiously.

  The prefect of Anzhou slammed the table and said angrily: "It's ridiculous! You six thousand soldiers and horses are camping, so Chen Feng can't come and leave when he says it? It must be because of your negligence that this happened!"

The    officer bowed his head and dared not refute.

   The prefect of Anzhou calmed down for a while, turned his head to look at the other generals who had not gone to war, and said solemnly:

   "The death of Liu Tongzhi is very painful for this officer, but the soldiers and horses have not been damaged much, but it is fortunate that the bandits still have to be suppressed.

The voice of    fell, and the generals who were on the sidelines looked at each other, speechless.

   This was originally an opportunity to gain credit, and usually only belonged to the prefect’s cronies like Liu Tongzhi.

It was a rare good thing for    to fall on them, but at this time, the generals were hesitant and did not dare to take on this errand.

   is really what happened to Liu Tongzhi, which frightened them, for fear that they would follow in the same footsteps and be assassinated by Chen Feng as well.

   Credit and appreciation are good, but life is also required.

   Seeing this, the prefect of Anzhou was a little angry, and said annoyed: "I Anzhou generals, are they all courageous people? You eat the money of the king, but you can't divide the worries of the king, and you are afraid of a mere grass?"

   Nonsense, you don’t bring troops, you don’t know what this concept is, of course you’re not afraid…

  Even thousands of troops can’t protect the generals, so where else is safe?

   A military general slandered and came out bravely, saying carefully:

"This Chen Feng is now haunting the territory of Anzhou, and his madness is getting worse. Many county officials have died at his hands. In my opinion, we should send troops and horses to guard the prefecture, and wait until he is gone... The prefect has forgotten. What about the Anlin Mansion?"

   He didn't want to send troops, and he was afraid that the prefect would order a general, so he simply said a reminder.

   - Don't forget that Chen Feng has a history of making troubles in other state capitals. If we lead the soldiers away, they will treat you badly, so you should ask for more blessings.

   The prefect of Anzhou was stunned for a moment, then his face changed slightly, he coughed, and changed his voice: "What you said is not unreasonable, this matter is a long-term discussion, and this official thinks about it again."

   He was cowardly.

   If he was unlucky like that Anlin prefect, and lost an arm, then the bandits were not successful, what use would it be for him?

   Heaven and earth are big, but small life is the biggest.

   Seeing this, many generals present secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

   In normal fighting, they don't fear bandits, but when they encounter assassins who come and go freely among the army, they are really frightened and have no sense of security.

  …

   On Hongyun Mountain, many leaders gathered together, and the atmosphere was tense.

   "The imperial court dispatched 30,000 soldiers and horses to attack my Red Cloud Mountain. What should I do?"

   Yu Feng opened his mouth with a heavy tone.

   All the leaders looked at each other with the same solemn expressions.

  The four prefectures of the Lu River did not cover their tracks, and each prefecture sent troops and horses to march with great fanfare, claiming that 30,000 people came to suppress the bandits.

   Hongyun Mountain has also inquired about the news. During this time, people on the mountain were panicked, and the leaders were also a little flustered.

  The three mountains are nominally one village, but they have not yet been integrated. When the imperial court dispatched troops at this juncture, it really caught their flaws and caught everyone by surprise.

  Yu Feng was trying to find a way to solve the merger, but at this time he had to turn his head to deal with the imperial court's bandits. If the officers and soldiers could not be repelled, the cottage would be wiped out, and the trees would collapse.

   Li Chun pondered: "The Luhe four-way soldiers and horses add up to claim 30,000, but in fact they won't exceed half."

  Lu Xinniang nodded: "Then we will fight head-on and repel the officers and soldiers, so as to teach the court how powerful we are."

   "That's also 15,000 people, and the officers and soldiers are far ahead of me, so how can we win?"

  Peng Jin immediately refuted.

   He was not willing to meet the enemy head-on. After all, Hutoushan and Huangdangshan had the most troops, and they must be the main force, with heavy casualties.

   "What does Chief Peng care about?"

   Yu Feng asked in a deep voice.

  Peng Jin also had no idea, he hesitated and said: "In my opinion, we can only defend according to the danger."

  Xu Gui shook his head and said loudly: "It is not feasible to defend according to the danger. The officers and soldiers have supplies of supplies, and our cottage has limited supplies. How can we use energy to beat our opponents? If you want to win, you have to take the initiative to attack!"

   He originally wanted to compete with Yu Feng, but now is the moment when his lips are dead and his teeth are cold. If Hongyun Mountain is defeated, Hutou Mountain and Huangdang Mountain will have no reason.

   Xu Gui knew this, so he put aside the idea of ​​fighting for power for the time being, and planned to make plans to repel the officers and soldiers first.

   Yu Feng's eyes lit up, and he quickly asked, "What do you think, Chief Xu?"

Xu Gui shook his head: "The officers and soldiers are strong, so we can gather more than 10,000 troops and horses at most, and we will certainly not be the opponents of officers and soldiers. If we want to defeat the enemy, we must make use of the mountains and make full use of the geographical advantage. However, although Hongyun Mountain is steep, But it's not as good as me, Huang Dangshan, and it's too late to make temporary renovations, so we have to win by surprise."

   "How to win by surprise?" Yu Feng asked.

  Xu Gui stroked his beard and pondered: "Well, maybe you can deceive surrender and defeat, win the trust of officers and soldiers, lure the enemy to go deep, use the cottage as a trap, and so on..."

   He mentioned several strategies, all of which are feasible, but they are all risky moves that cannot be guaranteed.

  Everyone listened and was a little undecided.

   At this moment, Xu Gui sighed and said:

   "Unfortunately, if Chen Feng is here, there is no need to take such a risk. He alone can be a thousand soldiers. With him, our victory will be at least 20% higher."

   Yu Feng also sighed when he heard the words: "Oh, I don't know if Brother Chen will come to help when he heard that my cottage was killed."

  Lu Yunzhao shook his head:

   "Mostly not, he doesn't owe us anything, why should he come back to accompany us in danger?"

   Just then, a minion hurried in with a look of surprise on his face.

   "Report! Leaders, great news!"

   Everyone was slightly startled.

   "Speak quickly." Yu Feng was a little surprised, and waved his hand to let the minion speak.

   The messenger was excited and said loudly:

   "The 6,000 soldiers and horses of Anzhou were assassinated by Second Master Chen before they even left the state border. They retreated back to the prefecture and did not dare to come out! There were four soldiers and horses, and one of them was scared away by Second Master Chen!"

"what?!"

   The faces of the leaders suddenly changed, and they stood up suddenly, overjoyed.

   Li Chun was greatly moved: "Brother Chen is willing to help and take the risk to assassinate the commander of all the troops and horses?"

   "Brother Chen is really a hero in the world. I don't think anyone on the Green Forest Road can compare to him." Lu Xinniang was very excited.

   "We owe a lot of this favor."

   Yu Feng sighed with emotion.

   Xu Gui was also shocked.

   But as the last victim, he is still in a stable mood.

   "With Chen Feng taking the lead, the other three officers and soldiers will definitely have their hearts floating. We can do some articles to attack the morale of these officers and soldiers. Maybe we can take advantage of it..."

  The news of Zhou Jing's good news came, and all the leaders seemed to have a needle in their hearts. After sweeping away the previous panic, they were all excited.

  …

  Luhe sent 30,000 soldiers and horses to suppress bandits, and it was widely heard. Although not everyone knew it, it was almost the same. Even the people of the neighboring provinces had heard of it.

   And what happened to the soldiers and horses in Anju, once spread, it caused a sensation.

   That Chen Feng actually sneaked into the thousands of troops and attacked thousands of horses alone, killed a large number of officers, and finally retreated, scared to hide all the way back to the state capital.

   Those who heard about it all exclaimed that there was no wrong nickname in the world.

   This "rescue Yama" is worthy of the name, no matter where the opponent is, how many soldiers and horses are around to protect them, if you want people to die in the third watch, they will not stay in the fifth watch!

   is a real king of hell!

   And the voice of "the number one master of the green forest" is also getting louder, and some people even think that this Chen Feng is the most powerful assassin in the history, and there is no such brave person in the history books.

   At the same time, Chen Feng's letter to punish evil was also spread, causing countless shocks.

   For a time, he became the most frequently discussed topic in the market, and various deeds were repeated over and over again.

  I don’t know how many pubs and teahouses, storytellers have made up stories about Chen Feng’s deeds, especially the recent “Single Gun Leveling Two Mountains” and “Walking to the Night Camp Alone”.

  When his fame was spreading, Chen Feng was not idle, and he was begging for evil all the way. He had left Luhe and stepped into Jiangchun.
