Transmigrated to Ancient Times as a Female Prison Guard-Chapter 108: Burning Grain and Grass

At this moment, everyone forgot their fear and forgot about death. The entire army presented an unprecedented unity.

The two colonels under Gong Xiaohua's command looked at her solemn and unparalleled figure on the commanding platform, and apart from admiration, there was also shame.

Previously under Gong Xiaohua's command, everyone centered around individuals and clans, forming factions and privatization for maximum benefit without considering the life and death of the state and people.

At this moment, they involuntarily gave rise to a feeling of sacrificing the individual to achieve the greater whole.

They wanted to abandon everything and contribute a share of strength and shed a share of hot blood for the tens of millions of innocent people who died and this militarily weak country.

The troops marched urgently for 15 km. The scouts opened the way in front, and when they were 5 km away from the enemy, they divided into three routes based on Gong Xiaohua's detailed map to detour.

The map they saw in the commander-in-chief's tent yesterday was a large regional map.

What they held in their hands now were detailed drawings of the small paths they were going to take, as well as the main landmarks, which were vividly depicted.

Following the map, they safely and quickly reached their destination at the predetermined time of Xishi.

Now they were just waiting for the commander's order. It was expected that they would take action at the end of Haishi.

At the beginning of Haishi, Gong Xiaohua took advantage of the night to go alone in black night clothes to a cave on the side of Lingjiang Mountain, the rendezvous point with the secret trained scout team.

Li Zichen helped cover for her in her camp. There were guards outside who were not allowed to disturb without major incidents.

When Gong Xiaohua entered the cave, there were no visible signs of anyone staying there.

She clapped her hands, three long and two short sounds, which was their unique recognition code.

Not for a while, more than a dozen people jumped out of the cave, each wearing black night clothes from head to toe.

"Commander."

"Are the preparations ready?"

"Everything is ready, just waiting for your command."

"Very good. This mission is very risky. Everyone must be careful when executing the mission. Withdraw at the end of Haishi no matter whether the mission is successful or not."

"Yes."

"Move out!"

They climbed along the cliffs of Lingjiang, each carrying a sealed bucket of Greek fire oil, all the way to the rear of the Dawei Army, and successfully infiltrated.

In groups of two, they carefully avoided the enemy's patrols in the dark night, looking for the enemy's food warehouse.

Gong Xiaohua and others searched for nearly a quarter of an hour without finding out where the opponent had hidden their food.

"Damn it, they are not called Dawei Army for nothing. They guard their food so heavily that we haven't seen a trace after searching for so long," said the man with wind ears who was carrying a bucket of Greek fire oil with Gong Xiaohua.

"Be patient."

Suddenly there was a commotion in a remote place to the left front. "There are assassins. Catch the assassins!"

"Commander, it's the long-legged man and the skinny man. What should we do?" Wind ears said.

"You hide, and I'll sneak over to take a look."

"Okay."

"Capture them alive!" Gong Xiaohua had just hidden in a hidden corner not far from the commotion when she heard the Second Prince of Dawei say.

"Yes."

Hearing that the other party said to capture alive, she felt relieved.

The enemy had many while they were few. If they acted rashly, it was possible for the whole team to be exposed. As long as they knew where they were being held, they could think of ways to rescue them.

However, the long-legged man and the skinny man seemed to have realized that there must be teammates around trying to rescue them.

The commander said that this mission was the key to winning this battle. Now that they had found the food warehouse here, they had to reveal this news to their teammates lurking in the dark.

With this in mind, they suddenly poured the Greek fire oil on themselves, lit it, then ran wildly towards the nearby barracks.

"Protect the food warehouse!" Someone in the Dawei Army immediately shouted.

Unfortunately, the two did not run far before being shot dead by the chaotic arrows of Dawei.

Gong Xiaohua in the distance lowered her eyelids, seemingly mourning.

When she opened them again, her eyes were deeper and darker. Then she turned around and quickly disappeared into the thick night.

"Commander, what about the skinny man and the others?"

"Let's go. We found the food warehouse. Gather the others."

Seeing the commander's gloomy expression, she guessed that things had probably gone bad, so she didn't ask any more questions and silently gathered the other team members.

Taking advantage of the chaos, the two cooperated with each other. One disguised himself as a Dawei soldier while the other swiftly harvested heads under the cover of darkness.

The silver dagger shone coldly in the moonlight. One by one they fell.

Then the corpses were dragged into the food warehouse, with one guarding the door and one inside.

Bucket by bucket of Greek fire oil was poured into each food warehouse. As they left, they took out matches and threw them back.

The oil met the sparks and ignited. Soon, with a bang, the warehouses were engulfed in surging flames, one connecting to another.

"Come on, the food warehouse is on fire! Come quickly to fight the fire!" Hearing that the food warehouses were on fire, the Dawei soldiers rushed over to fight the fire one by one, and the scene was chaotic.

Unfortunately, it was too late. More than a dozen warehouses had been surrounded by raging flames, and they had already been completely burned inside.

Gong Xiaohua and the others took advantage of the chaos and successfully escaped from the Dawei barracks.

Looking at the chaotic Dawei Army in front, if not for the resourcefulness and sacrifice of the skinny man and the long-legged man, their mission could not have been completed so smoothly.

Taking a final look at where her teammates died, Gong Xiaohua ordered: "Mission accomplished. Withdraw!"

"Yes!"

More than a dozen people returned along the same path all the way back to Daye Army camp.

The Second Prince of Dawei, looking at the ever-burning raging fire in front of him, gritted his teeth in anger and said, "Search the whole camp and find them. I will tear them into ten thousand pieces."

"Yes."

So there were search teams all over the camp, but in the end they found nothing.

The blaze lasted for nearly half an hour before the food officer came to the commander's tent.

"How is it, can we salvage some?"

"Reporting to the Second Prince, the enemy poured Greek fire oil everywhere, making the fire hard to extinguish. All the food was destroyed at once."

"How long will it take to transport more food supplies from our nearest supply point?"

"About half a month."

Upon hearing this, the Second Prince clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Damn Daye!"

Suddenly there were panic cries from soldiers outside, "What do we eat without food?"

"Without food, how can we still have strength to go to battlefield? Isn't that going to die!" Soon someone else said.

"We might as well retreat to save ourselves."

As soon as these words came out, it spread outside like a butterfly effect. There was a lot of noise outside, and some even ran outside the barracks.

It was not until the Third Prince came out and killed several people in a row that the troops finally calmed down.

"Anyone who dares to disturb the army's spirit will end up like this!"

But just after he finished speaking, the sound of drums and horns suddenly came from around the camp.

"What's going on?" A soldier asked.

"It's the Daye Army. They are attacking!"

The soldiers screamed again in panic and began to cower, wanting to escape.

"Anyone who retreats will be killed without question. Each division, prepare for battle!"
