For the sake of the smooth implementation of the entire plan to annihilate the enemy, Luo Datong, who was in charge of the operation, could only watch the enemy troops invading the camp 'wreatheting,' and could not arbitrarily mobilize the large army to encircle and suppress them, so he could only send a small force to encircle and intercept them and control them within a certain range. But when he found out that this group of outlaws actually took Xingying as the main target, he was worried that the emperor was in danger, and hurriedly asked His Majesty to get on the ship to 'take refuge'.

However, at this time, the enemy army attacking by land was approaching the large battalion, and the strength of the attacking enemy army exceeded everyone's estimates, so they put all the reserves into the battlefield, so that the troops left behind in the large battalion were scarce, but fortunately, most of the enemy troops by water were annihilated, so that the rear reinforcement was weak, and the situation was controlled with a small number of troops. But this enemy force was very brave, and knew that there was no hope of breaking through and was still dying.

The enemy troops who broke through began to break through after leaving behind the seriously wounded soldiers who were unable to move, and after running out all the ammunition, the whole process can be described as tragic. With the cold weapons in their hands, they actually broke through the musket resistance of the Song army, and rushed into the blocking position to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the other party. The officers and soldiers in the Imperial Protector are also selected warriors of a hundred battles, well-trained, and also fight the enemy with bayonets, blocking the enemy and making it difficult to advance an inch.

In order to open the way, some enemy soldiers lit the fire tribulus terrestris they carried and rushed into the crowd, not hesitating to sacrifice themselves to blow up a road. However, it was still difficult for them to break through the layers of resistance of the Song army, so they broke through the siege by scattering and scattering the siege, and set fire to the camp everywhere to create chaos, so as to break through. But in the end, they were weak, and most of them were surrounded and annihilated by the Song army, and in this way, they also restrained their own nearly 1,000 troops to encircle and suppress this stubborn enemy.

"Your Majesty, report from the front that the enemy army that has invaded the camp has surrendered!" Tan Fei said to His Majesty.

"Down?" Zhao Yu put down the binoculars in his hand, twisted his face and frowned and asked.

"Your Majesty, according to the messenger who came to report, the enemy's Western Route Army Daru Hua Chihe Weixian killed the main general, please surrender!" Tan Fei looked at His Majesty's face and replied. When the enemy army that invaded the camp launched a final assault, His Majesty ordered the boat to move to the west bank, which made Tan Fei uneasy, and he couldn't understand whether His Majesty was dissatisfied with the sparse battle, or because he felt that the defeat of this enemy army was imminent, and it was not worth wasting any more energy. But he preferred the former in his heart, after all, there were only a few hundred enemy soldiers, and when he foresaw and set up an ambush, he still let the enemy army rampant in the camp for a long time, and forced the emperor to take refuge on the ship, no one would be happy.

"Oh, Daru Huachi killed the main general, how can there be such a thing?" Zhao Yu said a little funny.

"Yes, does Your Majesty want to question in person?" Tan Fei saw that His Majesty seemed puzzled, and hurriedly asked.

"Not necessarily!" Zhao Yu listened to the silence for a moment, and then said, "Immediately order Tian Qi to take over this person, interrogate him in detail before and after this battle, and report it to me as soon as possible." And strictly order all those who know not to leak this news, and at the same time search closely, be sure to clean up all the enemy troops who infiltrated the camp, and no one will be missed! ”

"Yes!" Tan Fei replied, and immediately went down to make arrangements. He only knew that Tian Qi was a person from the Bureau, but this person was mysterious and simple, although he was on an errand in front of the palace, he was difficult to meet, and he never said much in front of people, as if he was a transparent person. At the moment, His Majesty gave him the responsibility of interrogation, and he was unable to understand it. And the news of the surrender of the blockaded enemy Daru Huachi also made him not understand, shouldn't he be ordered to surrender to attack the enemy army at this time? But he knows the rules, he can't ask what he shouldn't ask, and he can't say a word if he can't say it, even if he has doubts, he has to bury it in his heart.

The military intelligence and battle reports were constantly sent from the clipper to the imperial boat, so that Zhao Hao had a basic understanding of the current battle. When the attacking enemy army on land reached the vicinity of the main camp, they did not stop for long, but immediately launched an attack. The Song army pretended to be defeated and retreated, leading the enemy to the western camp, and then the Song army, which was hiding outside, cut off the enemy's retreat and surrounded the enemy.

Yuwa, who led the army, had already realized that his plan had been leaked when the rear army was cut off, and the essence of the attack was to take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, and once the enemy was prepared, he would be defeated. Therefore, he immediately abandoned his original plan to break through the way he came, but it was too late and the terrain was extremely unfavorable. The location of Xiying is in a place that juts into the lake and looks like a peninsula, which can shelter the water village. According to the plan, after they captured Xiying, they could assist the friendly forces on the waterway to seize the water village and burn the boats, but at this time it became a Jedi for the Yuan army.

Because Xiying is close to the lake, there are large tidal flats on the edge of the camp, and now it is the dry season, the lake beach seems to be dry, but in fact, the bottom is all mud, people can walk on it, but they can't walk horses. After organizing several unsuccessful breakouts, the Song army contracted the encirclement under the cover of artillery fire, gradually squeezing the enemy forces and forcing them to retreat into the lake. However, when the Yuan army was in a hurry to reconnoitre, it was close to the Song army camp and could not get close to investigate carefully, and now it is dark and does not check, and the war horses are all trapped after entering the lake beach.

"Report to Your Majesty, the enemy army abandoned their horses and retreated into the reeds, now the sky is not light, the situation is unknown, and it is difficult for the army to enter. Luo Du ordered all the troops to surround it, and wait for dawn to enter the encirclement and suppression! After nearly two hours of fierce fighting, the sound of gunfire gradually faded away, and another war report arrived.

"Alas......" Zhao Hao sighed when he heard this.

"Why is Your Majesty sighing?" Seeing this, Tan Fei asked.

"The reeds are thick, and 100,000 soldiers can be hidden, and a few thousand people entering it is like a mud cow entering the sea. And among them, the river is vertical and horizontal, extending in all directions, where to find it after dawn, the enemy army has long slipped away! Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and threw the battle report on the shore.

"Such subordinates immediately informed Luo Dutong and ordered him to immediately start encirclement and suppression!" Tan Fei also immediately woke up and suggested.

"The terrain in the reeds is complicated, how many people are you going to send in to search? And the enemy is secret, I am clear, secretly sneak attack, it is impossible to prevent it, and how many soldiers will be trapped in it! Zhao Hao asked with a sneer.

"So what?" Tan Fei thought about it, the road in the reeds was complicated, and it was too dark, people just hid around and didn't understand, and they couldn't find it at all. However, the enemy can sneak up on the enemy and kill and injure our soldiers. But at this time, he didn't enter, he didn't enter, he thought he wasn't stupid, and he didn't have an idea for a while.

"Set fire!" Zhao Yu said coldly, "Order the round-up army to retreat a hundred steps, and fire rockets at the place where the enemy is hidden, igniting the reeds!" ”

"Your Majesty, if the fire attack is threatening to affect the camp!" Tan Fei said.

"This place has been exposed, the whole army has withdrawn to the backup camp, and if it is burned, it will be burned!" Zhao Yu said.

"Yes, the subordinates will give an order immediately!" Tan Fei immediately ordered Guan Tongshou to convey the order to all departments, and sent someone to tell the officers and soldiers left behind in the battalion to pack up the camp tents and prepare for evacuation.

The edict was quickly conveyed to all departments, and more than 20 gunboats of the navy army also entered the battle position, and after the three green lights were flashed above the large battalion Diaodou, Zhao Yu personally issued the artillery order. The gunboats, which had been prepared for a long time, immediately fired at the designated targets, and for a time the cannon roared, the smoke of gunpowder rose, and there was a rush of confusion in the reeds, and the sound of explosions was mixed with the terrible howls of the wounded and the frightened neighing of the horses.

After two consecutive rounds of shelling, Zhao Yu ordered to stop shooting. At this moment, thick smoke rose from the reeds, and the battlefield was enveloped like a thick fog. After the tea was done, the reeds began to flash with fire, dotted with fishing fires on the lake. A moment later, the spark burst into flames and spread at a speed visible to the naked eye.

At this time, although the reeds have turned green, the stems and leaves have long been dry, and a stubble of withered reeds has been piled up on the lake beach, forming a thick meadow, which is a good thing to ignite fire, which can be said to be dipped in fire. And when the sparks produced after the explosion of the rocket and the flowering bomb meet it, it is a perfect match, and it instantly bursts into flames.

As the saying goes, once the fire is burned, even the reeds that have sprouted are quickly dried and joined the ranks of burning. At this moment, countless birds flew out of it, hovering in the air, making a terrible chirping, and then countless beasts scurried out of the reeds, scurrying around in a panic, completely unafraid of the humans not far away.

At this time, the slowest reaction was the human being, and there were Meng Yuan soldiers who escaped from the fire with firelight, jumping into the water regardless of it, but unfortunately most of them didn't know the nature of the water, and entering the water was also a dead end, but at this time they couldn't take care of it. At first, their own sailors also drove boats to salvage the enemy sailors, but the fire became bigger and bigger, and the fish near the shore seemed to be unbearable, and they kept jumping out of the water, so that they did not dare to get any closer, and it was up to their luck to see if the enemy soldiers who entered the water could escape.

"With such a big fire, I'm afraid that the gold will be refined, and there is no reason for people to survive!" The reeds grew along the edge of the lake, and they couldn't see the edge, but at this moment they had burned into a sea of fire, even if the boat had retreated hundreds of steps away, he could still feel the heat wave on his face, and the people in the center of the sea of fire felt unimaginable, Zheng Yong looked at the fire and exclaimed.

"Yes, this fire has been burned, but I am afraid that the enemy army has broken their courage and will not dare to attack easily!" Tan Fei looked at the little emperor beside him, and his heart was awe-inspiring.

"Hehe, this fire is not only afraid that it will not only frighten the enemy army, but also may be a turning point in this battle!" Zhao Yu shook the transcript of the Bureau's interrogation of He Weixian, shook off the ashes floating on it and handed it to Tan Feidao.

"Your Majesty, it is said that the enemy's attack on the rear camp of our army can be regarded as a well-planned plan, how can the battle be like this?" This transcript describes in detail the before and after of Meng Yuan's plan for this battle, and He Weixian, as the host, is naturally very clear about the details, Tan Fei frowned and said in surprise after reading it at a glance.

"Hehe, isn't the anti-sneak attack plan you formulated very thoroughly, but what is the result?" Zhao Hao pursed his lips and chuckled.

"This ...... There are many variables in it, beyond expectations, but the enemy army can finally be wiped out! Tan Fei blushed when he heard this.

"Both sides of this battle have put a lot of effort into it, but it's all a bunch of fools, it's just that your luck is a little better!" Zhao Yu said coldly when he heard this......
