Chapter 166 Beheading Operation
After Jiang Lingyin had temporarily settled General Lu, Ye Wenjing had also successfully and completely taken over the Northern Army. Jiang Lingyin walked into the tent with firm steps. The atmosphere in the tent was solemn and serious.
When Ye Wenjing saw her come in, he quickly introduced her to everyone: "Generals, this is Jiang Lingyin. She is resourceful, brave and fearless, and has given us advice many times."
The generals greeted her one after another, with expectation and respect in their eyes.
Jiang Lingyin nodded slightly and said seriously: "The situation is critical now. I have an idea that may bring us a turning point."
Everyone's eyes were focused on her.
"I propose a surprise attack. Perhaps I can lead the team myself. My Snow Leopard Commando has mature tactics and is just right for carrying out such a mission." Jiang Lingyin's voice was firm and powerful.
A general said worriedly: "This surprise attack mission is full of dangers, Miss Jiang, you should think twice."
Jiang Lingyin's eyes were firm: "Don't worry, General. Our Snow Leopard Commando has already made preparations."
Ye Wenjing looked at her, thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I believe you. But you must pay attention to safety."
Jiang Lingyin nodded: "Don't worry, wait for our good news."
Afterwards, Jiang Lingyin set off with Shanying, Miaoyan, Chu Tianxun, Hanyun, Hongxiao and other members of the Snow Leopard Commando Team.
Before setting off, Shanying said, "This mission is difficult, everyone must be careful."
Miaoyan responded: "We can't let everyone down, we must succeed."
Chu Tianxun clenched his weapon: "Yes, the Longyuan defenders are in urgent need of a victory to boost morale. Let's fight!"
Everyone looked determined and ran towards their goal.
Jiang Lingyin and the others quickly returned to the tent, changed into light and sturdy equipment, and carefully checked every component to ensure that there would be no mistakes during the operation. They put sharp swords on their waists, carried crossbows on their backs, and carefully put sufficient ammunition into bags.
At midnight, the night was as dark as ink, and everything was silent. Only the occasional chirping of insects broke the deep silence. Jiang Lingyin and the others set off with their bags on their backs, taking light but firm steps.
Jiang Lingyin walked at the front of the team and said in a low voice: "Everyone stay alert and pay attention to your feet and the movements around you."
Shanying followed closely and responded: "Don't worry, Captain, we are all ready."
Miao Yan said softly: "This time we must let the fifteen-nation coalition army have a taste of our power."
Chu Tianxun clenched the weapon in his hand, his eyes showing determination: "Yes, we can't let everyone down."
Han Yun and Hong Xiao also nodded silently, their eyes full of determination.
They moved forward cautiously in the darkness, heading towards the territory of the coalition of fifteen nations. Every step was full of unknown dangers, but they had only one belief in their hearts - to complete the surprise attack mission and bring the dawn of victory to the Longyuan defenders.
Jiang Lingyin and his team had carefully planned this surprise attack and divided their personnel into two groups.
One group was led by Jiang Lingyin himself to carry out the most critical decapitation operation. The members of this group were all agile, with courage and determination in their eyes. Jiang Lingyin looked serious and whispered to the team members: "Remember, our target is the enemy leader. We must act quickly and quietly. Once exposed, the consequences will be disastrous." The team members nodded and tightened their weapons.
The other team was led by Shanying, who was responsible for blowing up the coalition's food supplies. Shanying looked at the team members with a firm gaze and said seriously, "Food supplies are the lifeblood of the enemy. We must blow them up successfully, no matter how high the price." The team members looked solemn, knowing the difficulty of this mission.
In order to better complete the mission, both teams made full preparations. The team carrying out the decapitation operation changed into black night clothes that blended in with the night, and painted camouflage on their faces to better conceal their bodies. Their weapons were specially treated to reduce the possibility of making noise. The team responsible for blowing up the food and fodder carried a sufficient amount of explosives and carefully studied the layout and guarding of the coalition's food and fodder storage area.
Before setting off, the two groups looked at each other, their eyes full of trust and encouragement. Jiang Lingyin took a deep breath and said, "Action!" Then, the two groups sneaked towards their respective targets, and their figures gradually disappeared into the darkness.
Jiang Lingyin led the team members and, under the cover of night, approached the Allied camp like a ghost.
They were wearing black tights that blended perfectly with the darkness. Jiang Lingyin walked in front, each step was light and cautious, her eyes were sharp, and she was always observing the movements around her.
Outside the coalition camp, patrolling soldiers were walking back and forth. Jiang Lingyin raised her hand to signal the team members to stop. Everyone held their breath, waiting for the patrol to pass by.
As the patrol's footsteps faded away, Jiang Lingyin made a gesture and the team members quickly followed. They crouched down and moved forward cautiously in the shadow of the tent.
Arriving at the fence of the camp, Jiang Lingyin took out a sharp dagger from her bosom and gently cut off a few wooden fences. The team members drilled through the gaps one by one, their movements were so light that almost no sound could be heard.
After entering the camp, they avoided several campfires and cleverly circumvented the sleeping enemy soldiers. With his excellent hearing and keen intuition, Jiang Lingyin sensed the possible danger in advance.
When passing by each tent, Jiang Lingyin would first listen attentively and make sure there was nothing unusual before moving on.
Finally, they approached Xie Qingxia's tent. Jiang Lingyin signaled the team members to spread out and form an encirclement. She took a deep breath and prepared to launch the final assault.
Jiang Lingyin made a gesture, signaling the team members to get ready, then suddenly opened the tent and rushed in like lightning. However, he never expected that Xie Qingxia's martial arts would be so strong. He reacted instantly, dodged Jiang Lingyin's fatal blow.
"There's an assassin!" Xie Qingxia shouted, and many masters suddenly appeared around him and surrounded Jiang Lingyin and others.
"Oh no, we've fallen into a trap!" exclaimed a team member.
Jiang Lingyin gritted her teeth and said, "Let's fight!" But the enemy was too strong. After a fierce fight, the decapitation operation ultimately failed.
On the other side, Shanying led his men successfully to the place where the enemy stored food and grass.
"Everyone be careful and don't make any noise." Shanying whispered to the team members.
They dodged wave after wave of patrols and finally approached the pile of food and hay.
"Get started!" Shanying gave the order, and the team members quickly lit torches and threw them at the food and fodder.
In an instant, the fire broke out and lit up half the sky.
"Oh no, the food and grass are on fire!" The enemy's shouts came one after another.
Mountain Eagle looked at the burning fire and a relieved smile appeared on his face: "Mission accomplished, retreat!" They successfully burned the enemy's food and gained a chance of turning around for their side.
