The Empress Is Gigolo 340 Night Attack

"For those who are clueless, ask those who know about it," Ren Baqian said unenthusiastically. "Each person gets one."

Dozens of big hands swept across the table, leaving only three out of the 20 walkie-talkies.

The military system in the Protectorate of the Center was different from the winged cavalry. One in 100 people was a captain, and at the same time, this person would also be a well-known figure in the winged cavalry. At the very least, they had all attained the advanced stage of the Earth Wheel level.

As for the Protectorate of the Center, one captain commanded 300 people. In general, they were all at the intermediate stage of the Earth Wheel level.

"If this thing is placed in the city and as long as it is within 15 kilometers of Liao City, you can use this as a relay to contact." Ren Baqian placed the walkie-talkie repeater to one side.

"As for this night vision devices... Sir Li, you shall make the arrangements for these two sets. By all means, you musn't use this thing during daytime." Ren Baqian took out five sets of infrared night vision devices. Among them, he gave two sets to the Protector General of the Center to distribute among his soldiers. Also, he gave two sets to the winged cavalry. Lastly, Ren Baqian kept the remaining set for himself.

"This thing forms an image through infrared rays. Different temperatures will have different outlines on it. Even if someone is inside a tent, you will be able to detect them. Through this thing, you can see whether the other party is in their barracks as well as whether there is an ambush or not. In a while, you guys will go out and test it out on each other. These devices can be used to see things that emit heat. Regardless of whether they are humans, animals, or even torches, pay attention and distinguish the difference," Ren Baqian explained in layman's terms.

In the beginning, there were rumors circulating on the internet that by using infrared, one would be able to see through people's clothes. Thus, when Ren Baqian obtained this device back then, he got a little excited and immediately drove a few laps on the streets.

He found out that it was purely nonsense after testing it out himself. What this thing could see was the amount of heat emitted by the human body. What could the body's radiating heat reveal? It was all patches of red and yellow.

After listening to what Ren Baqian said, the eyes of the people beside him brightened as if they were shooting lasers from their eyes.

What were they most afraid of during a night attack? The worst thing that could happen would be that the other party was prepared and waiting for them to walk right into a trap.

With this thing, it would be obvious at a glance whether the other party was sleeping or not.

On the other hand, if the other party was ambushed in the dark, everything could be seen at a glance with this device.

"You can only see through tents and so on. Basically, materials which allow light to penetrate. Always remember that you can't use this device on walls."

"Everyone knows the mission this time, right?" Ren Baqian inquired once more.

Everyone sequentially nodded their heads.

"Remember, pa.s.s through the countless flowers at all costs, but don't be allured by any of them. Run away after achieving your goal and never take responsibility for it." Seeing that everyone nodded their heads, Ren Baqian stopped talking as these issues must have been long since arranged by Li Qianqiu.

"Set off stealthily in a dangerous environment!" Ren Baqian waved his hands as he spoke.

Everyone was silent.

Even the east gate was closed. Following the ropes, 5,000 soldiers slipped down the wall.

If it wasn't for the fact that landing on the ground was too noisy, many people would have directly jumped over the wall.

Ren Baqian stood on top of the city gates, used a night vision device to scan the surrounding, and saw two army units that were a kilometer away. Judging from their uniform, it seemed like they were sent on patrol by the Great Xia army. Other than that, he also spotted some sporadic dots and Great Xia's hidden sentries.

"I have taken care of everything." Ren Baqian informed the guard before turning to look at the empress, "In that case, Your Majesty doesn't have to go, right?"

After thinking for a long time, she finally replied faintly, "I'm unoccupied, and in any case, I'm not able to sleep either."

After Ren Baqian grabbed the rope and slid to the ground, the empress was already beside him just with a jolt of her body.

After arranging the troops, everyone slowly headed in the north-east direction while carefully making their way in the dark. From their night vision devices, the Great Xia soldiers emitted a luminous radiance, and they were able to see it from a few kilometers away. As such, they were able to stay away from trouble.

As for the Great Xia sentries, the winged cavalry carefully made their way in the dark and crushed them to death.

5,000 soldiers marched their way to a suitable position when Li Qianqiu turned around to look at Ren Baqian. Seeing that Ren Baqian nodded his head and waved his hand, the winged cavalry and the soldiers from the Protectorate of the Center divided into two sections. One section headed toward the Great Xia barracks at the east of Liao City while the other section headed toward the barracks in the north.

Ren Baqian signalled for people to bring both mortars as well as the ammunition bag over. After that, he adjusted the angle of the mortar.

There were two mortars, one facing the east while the other faced the north toward the central barracks. They were both aimed at the locations of the stored rations that had been photographed by the drone during the daytime.

In any case, while the angles of the mortars were being adjusted, they were already aware of the positions of these of ration stores. As for whether the mortars could hit the targets or not, they would have to submit to the will of heaven.

When he thought of this, Ren Baqian felt that he had forgotten to do something for this mission; he forgot to sacrifice three animals.

"The east section has arrived at the intended location. We are 300 meters away from them and can't get any closer."

"The north section has arrived as well. We are 350 meters away."

Ren Baqian rubbed his hands and turned around to ask the empress,"Your Majesty, do you want to try it out?"

The empress was a little excited, and it seemed like she was a little interested. "How do I do it?"

"In a while, the both of us will put the mortar sh.e.l.ls into the barrels and when I say release, all you have to do is to let go." Ren Baqian pa.s.sed her a mortar sh.e.l.l and got two guards to support the cannon.

Ren Baqian placed the end of the mortar sh.e.l.l into the barrel and seeing that the empress imitated his action, he slowly counted, "One, two, three... Release!"

Bang! Bang!

The noise from both mortars overlapped each other, and at the same time, smoke rose from both of the muzzles, heading straight for the sky.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

Only after firing three shots per person did Ren Baqian begin to redeploy the mortars into a new position and re-adjust their angle of fire.

When the sound of a cras.h.i.+ng explosion was heard in the distant Great Xia barracks, the empress's eyes glistened. This thing was indeed interesting.

The abrupt explosion immediately startled the entire Great Xia barracks.

"Enemies! Night attack!" Such shouting was spread widely across the barracks as soldiers hurriedly rushed out with weapons. It was completely chaotic.

"Kill!" All of a sudden, a figure appeared on the side of the fence of the Great Xia barracks. With a few kicks, this figure managed to kick the entire fence down. As this figure stepped on the fence and ran while gaining momentum, she sprung upward and directly leaped over the ground that was sprinkled with caltrops. The sword in this figure's hand was directed straight at a Great Xia soldier who had not even put on his clothes and hacked at him.

These caltrops just so happened to be placed in areas where the light couldn't reached. If they didn't have the drone to detect them and weren't aware of this fact, many of the Dayao soldiers would probably have fallen into Great Xia's trap.

Furthermore, the caltrops were placed at a position that was exactly at the edge of where the fence would be after it fell. It could be seen that the other party had prepared for a night attack.

Just as the Dayao soldiers dashed into the Great Xia central barracks, blood-curdling screams resounded as the chaotic scene got even louder and messier. Blood and broken limbs were strewn everywhere on the ground as well as in the areas that surrounded the tents.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

Another six mortar sh.e.l.ls were separately launched into the central barracks. At the time of the explosion, these sh.e.l.ls splattered napalm into the surroundings and directly ignited the nearby rations, fodder, and tents.

"It caught fire!" Such shouts came and went while intertwined with the blood-curdling screams in the distance.

A few of the winged cavalry warriors were killing the Great Xia soldiers to their heart's content.

Looking in the distance, a group of Great Xia soldiers had gathered together, amounting to a few hundred people.

One of the winged cavalry warrior laughed maliciously and declared, "Help me defend for a while!"

As soon as he finished talking, he took out a black cylinder and lit the fuse. After that, he threw the explosive over at the other party.

Boom! The explosion was blasted directly within that group of soldiers. People in the vicinity were immediately killed by the explosion while the people a distance away were thrown into the sky.

A few winged cavalry warriors shouted, "Kill!"

While wielding a saber in their hand, they threw themselves upon the Great Xia soldiers.

Just like a tiger entering a flock of sheeps, a streak of sword gleam and blood were strewn alongside the hacked limbs. However, after a short period of time, all that remained were the few winged cavalry warriors that were soaked in blood from head to toe. Then, they headed toward another direction to kill more enemies.

There were many such scenes throughout the entire barracks.

For this night attack, Ren Baqian took everything that he could bring with him.

Ren Baqian looked at the flames in the distance and listened to the killing sounds that were transmitted to his ears. At the same time, while quickly adjusting the angle of the mortar, he didn't forget to take out a piece of White Rabbit Creamy Candy from his pocket and pa.s.s it over to the empress.
