Chapter 257: Ma Ta Company Camp (2)
Simeon's army position is in a hidden area not far away.
"Huh...huh...huh..."
Deng Jiaer and Alan were sleeping next to each other.
When Deng Jiaer sleeps, he has the same problem as Su Cheng, that is, he likes to snore.
But unlike Su Cheng, Su Cheng sometimes snores very loudly. Alan complained about Su Cheng many times.
But Deng Jiaer's snoring sound was very small, and it didn't feel like he was snoring, but more like he was mumbling something.
What is very interesting is that Alan, who is usually the most energetic and noisy, is the quietest when sleeping.
Although both of them are 15 years old this year, according to the regulations of the Britannia Empire, they are already legal adults.
However, compared with last year, there are almost no major changes between the two, except for slight changes in height and figure.
Although they are adults, the two of them are still small, like two little girls who are not yet underage.
While the two little guys were sleeping next to each other, not far away from them, three soldiers who couldn't sleep were having a boring discussion about these two people.
"Hey, have you seen that little girl over there with black hair tied up beautifully with a golden ribbon? She is the person in charge and the commander-in-chief of this battle."
"Is it true? She looks about 13 or 14 years old, right? She feels younger than my sister. Is such a young person to be our commander-in-chief?"
"What does being young mean? You are really superficial. Our East Route Army's coach, Mr. Su Cheng, wasn't he just 18 years old this year?"
"Ah... That's right. Ah... I'm so envious. She can be responsible for commanding thousands of cavalry in combat at such a young age. When can I be like her?"
"With your current level, you'd better wait for 20 years. But to be honest, our commander - this little black-haired girl is really not ordinary pretty."
"Yes, she looks so cute. I never dreamed that one day such a cute little girl would be my commander."
"The little girl with short brown hair sleeping next to the officer is also so cute."
"Huh? Are you okay with your brain? Don't you know who that little brown-haired girl is? She is the coach's sister. How dare you take advantage of the coach's sister? Are you out of your mind?"
"Who said I was going to hit on the coach's sister? I just complimented the coach's sister on how cute she is."
"You two should calm down. Wouldn't you like to just admire these two cute little girls? My opinion is the same as yours. I also think the coach's sister is very cute and she is my type."
"Is the coach's sister cute?"
"Of course, it's so cute."
"That's a stupid question of yours... huh?"
The soldier suddenly choked up before he could finish his sentence, "Your question is stupid."
Because he suddenly realized that the sentence "Is the coach's sister cute?" seemed to come from behind the three of them.
And this voice was not the voice of his two companions.
And his two companions choked when they noticed something strange at almost the same time as him.
Although, these three soldiers turned their stiff necks and looked behind them.
Behind the three people, a tall man was standing.
This man was dressed in exquisite white and blue armor, with a blue knight's sword on his waist.
——It was the commander of the 4th Army who had just returned from a reconnaissance mission.
The commander of the 4th Army looked at the three soldiers in front of him who were sweating crazily and said solemnly:
"I remember that General Deng Jiaer gave an order that the entire army should sleep and rest, and no one is allowed to do anything other than sleep. What are you three doing now?"
"R-Sir Knight... I, we..."
One of the three soldiers hesitated.
But he hesitated for a long time and didn't say anything.
"snort!"
The commander of the 4th Army gave a heavy "hum" and then said:
"Keep the names of the three of you, and after the battle is over, I will slowly settle the score with you three!"
"yes……"
The three soldiers lowered their heads sadly, said "yes", and then kept their names.
The commander of the 4th Army also wrote down the names of the three of them and let them go.
After the three soldiers who had disobeyed the military order to "sleep well" left quickly, the commander of the 4th Army quickly walked forward, came to the sleeping Deng Jiaer, and leaned against Deng Jiaer's ear. On the other side, he said to Deng Jiaer;
"Coach, wake up."
As soon as the commander of the 4th Army finished speaking, Deng Jiaer, who had been sleeping soundly just now, suddenly opened his eyes.
As soon as Deng Jiaer opened his eyes, he directly asked the commander of the 4th Army:
"How's it going?"
Just now, the commander of the 4th Army volunteered to take over the task of scouting the Simeon Army's position, and went to the Simeon Army's position in person to monitor every move of the Simeon Army's position.
Now that the commander of the 4th Army has returned and woke her up, he must have discovered something.
As a result, just as Deng Jiaer expected, the commander of the 4th Army did bring back some good discoveries.
"General," said the commander of the 4th Army, "the enemy soldiers currently responsible for guarding the perimeter of the position are all drowsy due to fatigue. I think now is the best time to launch a surprise attack."
After hearing what the commander of the 4th Army said, Deng Jiaer took out her pocket watch and looked at the time.
"It's almost 3 a.m...."
After murmuring this sentence in a low voice, Deng Jiaer's eyes flashed with determination, then he closed his pocket watch, turned his head and said to the commander of the 4th Army:
"Wake up the entire army! And prepare the entire army for battle!"
"yes!"
After watching the commander of the 4th Army leave quickly to convey her military orders, Deng Jiaer sighed slightly.
It’s about to begin...for the first time in my life...I personally implement the battle plan I made...
Deng Jiaer secretly said this in his heart while secretly clenching his fists.
Deng Jiaer now felt that his small chest was filled with various emotions.
There is tension and fear...
And - excitement!
"Alan! Alan! Get up! Get up!"
Deng Jiaer released her clenched fists, then grabbed the shoulders of Alan, who was sleeping on her shoulders, and shook her wildly.
"Hmm... um... um... I know... don't shake me..."
…
After waking up all 5,000 cavalry and getting them ready for battle, Deng Jiaer led the 5,000 cavalry and quietly moved towards Simeon's position under the cover of night.
The ink-like darkness of the night perfectly covered their tracks.
In order to avoid disturbing the enemy troops, Deng Jiaer specifically ordered everyone to press the bridle and move slowly, and not to ride their horses or whip their whips.
Deng Jiaer quietly approached the Simeon Army's position with 5,000 cavalry.
——It was so close that Deng Jiaer could see the lights of Simeon’s army position.
Looking at the Simeon Army's position that was glowing with lights, Deng Jiaer tightened the spear in his hand, with a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
