Splendid peasant girl busy farming

Chapter 8543 Night Attack
Night falls.

Many soldiers had already had dinner and entered the camp to rest.

Except for a few patrols patrolling everywhere, the soldiers were almost dizzy.

In one of the tents, a large group of soldiers of the Yang family army leaned back and forth on a temporary shop.

"Niu Lao San, your wife is about to have a baby."

Yang Mazi held a stick of dry tobacco and smoked it.

"What does it have to do with you?" Niu Laosan's eyes were as big as a bull's, and his thick arms were wrapped around his chest, looking at Yang Mazi coldly.

"Don't be so excited. I didn't mean anything to your wife. I'm married a long time ago. My baby is almost walking."

Yang Mazi shouted.

He used to grow up in the same village with Niu Laosan's daughter-in-law. They were childhood sweethearts and had a very good relationship.

But after all, he didn't see right. In the end, he married another girl from another village.

But Niu Laosan kept it in his heart, and his attitude towards him was not very good, always suspecting that he would get in the way.

"Hey, yes, it's been quite a few years."

Niu Laosan suddenly looked a little sad.

"What? Do you miss your wife and children?"

Yang Mazi said.

"Think about it, why don't you think about it? I still miss my parents. They are old and have problems all over their bodies. How will they live without their sons by their side to fulfill their filial piety?"

"Yang Mazi, what do you think we people are here to fight? Everyone is living a good life, and the court is doing well, so why are you opposing the court?" Niu Laosan looked puzzled.

He didn't want to fight, but there was no other way. The entire Bozhou belonged to the Yang family. When the Yang family gave an order, he could only follow the Yang family.

"Shh, keep your voice down, be careful not to be heard!" Yang Mazi looked around.

"What are you afraid of, we all think so."

"Yeah, we live a good life, what are we doing in war? Just want us to die, right?"

"I'm not afraid of death, but I'm afraid that my family will have a hard time without me."

"The Yang family is very mean. If I die, it's over. My daughter-in-law will definitely remarry. Who will raise my two children in the future?"

The other people in the tent couldn't help crying as they talked.

"Everyone take care of yourself, your life is your own, don't rush out to die."

Yang Mazi shouted.

"That's right, Brother Yang is right."

"Yes, we all listen to Brother Yang."

"We will do what Brother Yang says."

Everyone expressed their opinions.

Among them, Yang Mazi is not only the leader of the camp, but also the best and smartest in martial arts.

"Everyone, don't talk, someone is coming outside."

Yang Mazi said.

Everyone in the camp immediately shut up.

Among these people, only Yang Mazi had practiced his internal skills, and his ears and eyes were very flexible, and he could hear voices from far away.

Just when everyone was silent, the sound of footsteps outside came, and not long after, the curtain on the camp tent was lifted.

"If you don't sleep at night, who is making noise?"

A black-faced inspector appeared in front of the crowd, with his palm on the handle of the knife at his waist, and he glanced at the crowd coldly.

"My lord, we were talking about how to charge tomorrow."

Yang Mazi said with a smile on his face.

This black-faced inspector is a member of the supervisory team, similar to a general's personal soldier, and has a much higher status than these big soldiers.

Soldiers like them who want nothing but nothing can easily offend the inspectors.

"Hmph, sleep quietly at night, march and fight, you will have your own general to arrange, you can just listen to the orders when the time comes... Forget it this time, next time you hear noises, you must follow the military law."

After the black-faced inspector frightened him for a while, he pressed the handle of the knife and left quickly.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief until they could no longer hear footsteps.

However, no one was willing to speak casually, and could only look at each other in blank dismay.

The torches and candles outside made the inside of the tent dark and unclear.

Yang Mazi suddenly said in a low voice: "Everyone is from villages and elders from ten miles and eight villages, and it is not our original intention to go out to fight this time."

"If we die, the whole family will not have a good life. Tomorrow, we will not be able to resist the war, but once the war starts, we should not work hard. If we really can't, we will surrender... I only talk to you about this." You said, everyone, don’t wear it out and let my head fall to the ground.”

Yang Mazi gritted his teeth.

"I'm sure I won't tell."

"Yeah, everyone still wants to survive, just follow Yang Yingzheng, don't say anything else."

"Whoever talks nonsense is going to make things difficult for everyone."

Everyone lowered their voices.

In fact, Yang Mazi had to take a risk when he said such a thing.

However, the words still have to be said.

There is no way, everyone wants to survive, if everyone does not work together, how can they survive.

As for the battle of Sixiang City this time, he is not very optimistic about it.

Going to the imperial court's hometown to fight, it would be surprising if he could win.

Everyone went to sleep with their own thoughts.

They woke up again, awakened by the harsh whistle.

"It's not good, the enemy attacked at night!"

When they opened the tent door, they found that the outside was in chaos.

The soldiers ran around like headless chickens, and there were shouts of beating and killing everywhere.

"Get dressed, take your weapons, and don't talk."

Yang Mazi shouted solemnly.

These soldiers are not qualified regular soldiers, but peasants who were forcibly conscripted into the army a while ago.

Many of them have also practiced some superficial fists and kicks. Before going out, they trained a little bit, but their ability is indeed very weak.

Moreover, they basically all have night blindness.

If the torches are extinguished outside, they will become blind in an instant, and they can only be slaughtered.

So Yang Mazi's response was relatively correct, and he could save his life at critical times.

Apart from Yang Mazi's tent, there are quite a few fellow villagers in the same tent.They all made similar choices.

At this time, Bei Litu was already sitting in the middle of the large tent of the Chinese army.

He used to sleep with his armor on.

At this critical moment, everyone knew that the enemy might attack at night, so he made preparations in advance.

"Everyone, the enemy's cavalry came to attack at night. There should not be many people. As long as we don't mess up, we won't have much loss."

Bei Litu said indifferently.

"But, should we just swallow our anger like this? The enemy only has a few hundred riders at most, and there are not many people. We can eat it."

Yang Dingxing frowned, he felt a little too aggrieved to defend like this.

With an army of [-] to [-], are you afraid of just a few hundred people?

"The enemy is cavalry. How can we pursue them in this dark night? If we are led into a trap by them, we will definitely lose something. It's not worth it."

Beilitu didn't think the pursuit was a good idea. In his opinion, he should stay in the tent and wait until dawn.
