Chapter 443 Prince VS Little Brother 43
"Your Highness, Dada's constant provocations this time are really too much. Nanzhao also seems to be ready to make a move and is secretly gathering troops, while Beiqi has only increased the number of troops stationed on the border and has not yet taken any obvious action." General Feng stepped forward, clasped his hands together, and reported the enemy's latest movements in a low and powerful voice.
This General Feng is Feng Chenghong's second uncle. His Feng family is a family of loyal and brave men. Feng Chenghong's grandfather and father are currently stationed in the eastern border, closely monitoring the actions of the Northern Qi Kingdom to prevent it from launching a sudden attack.
"It's okay, don't act rashly for now. Have you found out how many troops Dada has now?" Fu Nanzhan frowned slightly, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, which seemed particularly deep in this dim tent.
"Your Highness, according to scout intelligence, Dada has now assembled an army of 250,000. Their strength should not be underestimated." Brigadier General Sun stepped forward and answered respectfully.
"Have we found out their schedules?" Fu Nanzhan thought secretly in his heart, if he could launch a sneak attack first.
By burning their food supplies when they are least prepared, we can greatly weaken their combat effectiveness before the battle begins, thus minimizing our own losses.
A bold idea even flashed through his mind: if he used his lightning ability, he could chop them into pieces and put an end to it all.
These clowns deserve to die for taking up my time with my wife.
What he missed most at the moment was his sweet and soft wife who was far away in the capital. He couldn't be with him because of the war, which made him feel a little depressed.
"Your Highness, we've investigated everything. At night, the army only leaves a few men on guard, so their vigilance is relatively low. During the day, they focus on training and occasionally send people to harass us, attempting to disrupt our morale..."
"General, this is bad!" Before General Feng could finish his words, a soldier rushed into the tent and shouted in panic, "Just now at the border, our soldiers and the Dada soldiers suddenly started fighting!"
"A fight has broken out? What is going on?" General Feng's face changed and he immediately asked anxiously.
"Just now our people were on patrol, and Dada's people were also on patrol. Who knew that one of them "accidentally" kicked a stone and hit one of our people.
"Our brothers naturally couldn't swallow this insult, so they kicked back. As a result, the two sides kept going back and forth, and the situation escalated, and finally a fight broke out." The soldier said tremblingly. After all, if this large-scale fight was dealt with by the general through military court, it would be no joke.
"Isn't this a great opportunity!" When Fu Nanzhan heard the news, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a meaningful smile.
He was just worried about not having a suitable reason to take action, but now, Dada came to him.
"First, control our people and bring them back to the barracks. This matter must not be made public. You can go down." After the soldier left.
Fu Nanzhan immediately said with a serious expression, "We will attack Dada tonight. General Feng will be in the rear, responsible for commanding and dispatching troops. I will personally lead the attack from the front, disrupting their morale first, and then setting fire to their camp, leaving them with no time to fend for themselves."
"Yes, I will obey your command!" General Feng replied, and then he gathered in front of the map to carefully study the details of the battle. After making sure that there were no mistakes, he left the tent one by one and went to prepare for tonight's night attack.
Although there were only a hundred or so soldiers involved in the fight between the two sides, this was enough to serve as an excuse for them to start a war.
In these troubled times, no matter what you do, you must always have a legitimate reason. This way you can gain an advantage in public opinion and military morale, and make a good start for the next war.
The soldiers who had previously participated in the fight were all dealt with according to military law, and each received a punishment of twenty military sticks.
Military law is as heavy as a mountain. Even when a great war is imminent, there will be no room for relaxation or chaos in discipline. Only in this way can we ensure that the army obeys orders and has a solid foundation for defeating the enemy in the upcoming brutal war.
The military camps of Dayong and Dada are not far apart. The military camp of Dayong is only about five kilometers away from the border, and the distance from the military camp of Dayong to the military camp of Dada is no more than fifteen kilometers.
The two sides formed a tacit understanding to send soldiers to patrol the border only during the day. When night fell, the soldiers would withdraw to their respective camps and set up camp until the next day.
That night, the stars were dim, and the thousand elite cavalrymen under Fu Nanzhan had already assembled and were ready to go.
He personally led this cavalry and galloped towards the Dada military camp like black lightning.
As they got closer to the Dada military camp, Fu Nanzhan gave decisive orders, and the buglers and drummers sounded in unison. For a moment, the passionate sound of the bugles and the deafening sound of the war drums intertwined.
It rolled towards the Dada military camp like a surging wave, waking up the Dada soldiers who had just fallen asleep.
The Dada soldiers got up in a hurry, still sleepy, and hurriedly got ready to deal with this sudden attack.
