border.
The general sent by the wise king thought that he only needed to deal with it casually and could go back to collect his reward.
Little did they know that the enemy army was coming with such a fierce force, which was completely different from what the wise king had discussed with them.
At the beginning, the general would let his soldiers resist for a while, but as more and more people came, he could not cope with it.
"General, we still have to send people to launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp." Shen Moye said. After all, if the fighting continues like this, the State of Chen will undoubtedly be defeated.
Of course, the general also knew that there was still a glimmer of hope for survival if he launched a surprise attack now. If he just hid in the city, he would probably be trapped to death.
Although he had sent military reports to the court and asked for reinforcements, it was still uncertain when the reinforcements would arrive.
The general looked at the man in front of him. He had only been with him for a short time, but he felt that this man had a bright future. After all, Shen Moye was a natural general and was very talented in leading troops and killing enemies.
But he was not the wise king's man. The more talented he was, the more threat he would pose to the wise king. Therefore, he died on the battlefield, and he could only blame his bad luck.
"Since Deputy General Shen has proposed it, you will lead a team of cavalry to capture the enemy camp." The general made the final decision and patted Shen Moye's shoulder solemnly.
But he was thinking that even if he failed, Shen Moye's visit would at least hurt the enemy's vitality, and they would have to rest for a while.
If Shen Moye died on the battlefield, it would be considered as eliminating a great threat for the wise king.
Then he waited for reinforcements in the city, and in the end all the credit was his.
Shen Moye's eyes flashed slightly. How could he not know what the general was planning? Letting him lead a team of cavalry to launch a surprise attack on the enemy was simply courting death.
But if we don't go, the enemy will occupy the city and the people in the city will suffer.
In the past, his father was a general who was dedicated to the people. Shen Moye followed his father when he was young, and his every move was influenced by him. How could he just watch the people suffer in vain now?
So even if there is a bottomless abyss ahead, he has to jump.
"I obey your command." After Shen Moye retreated, he went to plan the sneak attack at night.
In the month since Shen Moye came to the battlefield, he has won over many younger brothers. They all call him Big Brother and are willing to follow him.
So Shen Moye went to find these little brothers and took out the topographic map he had prepared.
When they learned that the general had actually sent their eldest brother to lead a few people to attack the enemy, their faces turned red with anger.
"Brother, aren't they asking you to die? Why did you agree to it?" Zhang San has a dark face and looks very honest. He was saved by Shen Moye when he was killing the enemy, so this life belongs to his brother, and he will follow his brother's lead.
Li Si, who was standing next to him, was much calmer. He said, "Brother, how could we possibly disobey military orders? Now we have no choice but to think of a way to save our own lives after the surprise attack on the enemy camp."
Shen Moye also looked at Li Si with appreciation, spread out the topographic map and said, "I have marked the locations where food and weapons are stored."
That night.
Shen Moye was dressed in black, and brought his younger brothers and personally selected cavalrymen with him.
The general naturally would not object. The more successful the sneak attack was, the more advantageous it would be for their situation, so he did not deliberately send his own troops in.
Some soldiers were patrolling outside the enemy camp's tents, but since it was already the second half of the night, they were all a little sleepy.
The patrolling soldiers also let down their guard. Shen Moye knocked down a few soldiers and then asked the others to change into their clothes.
He found the tent where the food was stored and set it on fire.
While those people were putting out the fire, he and others went to the war zone where the weapons were stored and broke the bowstrings and gun handles, so that it would take them some time to repair the weapons later.
Fortunately, they had changed into those people's clothes, so they were not discovered at first. Both things went smoothly.
However, when someone discovered other soldiers lying outside, and Shen Moye and his men did not go to put out the fire but instead went in the opposite direction, their whereabouts were exposed.
Soon, the enemy blew the whistle and many people surrounded them.
The enemy general looked at the surrounded people with anger in his eyes. They had burned their food and destroyed so many weapons.
"Kill them all." The enemy general no longer wanted to capture them alive, he just wanted to vent his anger.
After all, those who were sent for surprise attacks were generally abandoned by the State of Chen. Even if they were captured, they would not pose any threat. It would be better to kill them all and take care of morale.
"Everyone, protect yourself first, and then find a chance to escape." Even though he saw a group of people surrounding outside, Shen Moye was not afraid, but just instructed the few people behind him.
"Brother, don't worry." Zhang San felt calmer when he saw these people's red eyes. No matter what, their trip today was worth it.
Shen Moye asked the others to go forward first and he would follow behind, but several people in the team he brought were still killed.
Zhang San and Li Si rushed out first, but they also had a lot of wounds on their bodies. Seeing that they were almost safe, Shen Moye swung his sword and killed a few people, and rushed out while others were not paying attention.
Several people mounted their horses and galloped away without caring about the arrows shooting towards them like meteors from behind.
After returning to the city, several people were exhausted and covered in blood.
Zhang San was the first one to come out and was still able to speak, but Shen Moye fainted directly.
The general didn't expect that Shen Moye could come back alive. His expression was a little complicated, and he could only ask the doctor to treat his injuries well.
Zhang San knew that Shen Moye was injured so badly because he wanted them to escape, so he said to the general, "We have destroyed the enemy's granary and their weapons. Big brother has made the greatest contribution this time. Please do your best to treat him."
After saying these words, Zhang San followed the doctor downstairs to bandage his wound.
Shen Moye had been in a coma for several days and had not yet woken up. It took him a last bit of strength to hold on until he reached the city.
At this time, Fu Yunxi had also arrived at the border. He took the chicken-eating badge and went to the barracks.
When they heard that they were looking for Shen Moye, someone reported it to the general.
"Who are you?" the general asked the somewhat weak man in front of him.
Fu Yunxi was not afraid either. She looked directly into the eyes of the person in front of her and answered, "I am the legitimate daughter of the Duke's Mansion. I was recently engaged to Shen Moye. Could you please let me meet him, General?"
"How does this general know that you are not lying?" The general looked at Fu Yunxi up and down. He didn't expect that a woman would have such courage.
Only after seeing the person in front of her take out the token of the Shen Mansion did he let her in.
Shen Moye's room was filled with the smell of herbs. When Fu Yunxi entered, he saw a pale-faced man lying there.
