When Su Chengyu left the 10,000-yuan camp and returned to his tent, he was about to order the troops to be drawn out, when he saw Zhang Jiayu bring a few followers to the door to ask for a meeting.

"I've seen His Royal Highness the King of Chenzhou." Zhang Jiayu was wearing cotton armor at this time, and made a curtsy, and then seemed to be a little embarrassed, "The lower officials have something to ask for, and I hope that His Royal Highness will help." ”

"Oh? What's the matter? ”

"The lower official wants to borrow 800 military tents from His Highness." Zhang Jiayu continued, "It's just that these military tents may be damaged a lot." ”

He briefly explained that he needed a large number of military tents to set up a maze to lure the Qing army to attack the camp.

Su Chengyu immediately and generously asked the Logistics Department to transfer 800 tents for Zhang Jiayu to take away.

According to the Dragon Guard's combat manual, when camping in a state of imminent battle, the whole army camps without tents. Even the vehicles carrying the tents were parked more than ten miles away. It was lent to Zhang Jiayu and basically had no effect on Long Weijun.

In the 19th century, the practice of camping without tents was adopted by most military powers. The main thing is that the camp can be quickly pulled out and marched, and it will take more than half an hour for the whole army to dismantle and install tents.

In addition, camping also has the advantage of preventing enemy troops from setting fire to their camp, which is conducive to vigilance.

Of course, the disadvantage is that the soldiers eat and sleep in the open, which will be more difficult.

Zhang Jiayu came out of the camp of the Long Wei Army, and went to borrow tents, flags and other things from Jiezhongxi, Wan Yuanji and others. In the end, he carried more than 2,000 military tents and various banners in the direction of Luxi, and half of the 2,000 soldiers were carrying these baggage.

Gao Jinku was originally a Ming general, and after surrendering to the Qing court in Nanjing, he was sent to Jiangxi by Hong Chengchou.

He has fought several battles with the Ming army since the defection, but he has not achieved too many military exploits, so he has always been just a general.

This time, Jin Shenghuan allocated him 10,000 soldiers and horses, plus 5,000 people in his headquarters, a total of 15,000 troops, which made him feel confident.

If he can quickly take Fuzhou, he can even take advantage of the victory to go south to Ganzhou, and at this time, Jin Shenghuan's army is still blocked in the soap.

At that time, if the army can surround the Ganzhou Mansion, it should be relatively stable for the Manchurian master to make himself a deputy general, and it is not impossible to be a general soldier.

It was to enter Fuzhou in the west and enter the warehouse to prepare to fight the old book, and sent his henchmen to guerrilla Feng Junrui to lead his descendants with 5,000 soldiers and horses as the vanguard, and he led 10,000 people to follow.

A day after Zhang Jiayu's departure, Feng Junrui's forward had already reached the Lufang River on the border of Fuzhou.

When he crossed the river, he found that on this side of the river was a large flat open field, surrounded only by some withered yellow reeds.

His heart was tight, and he hurriedly ordered the whole army to be on guard, and sent light cavalry to investigate everywhere. It wasn't until his subordinates replied that there were no Ming troops within a few miles of him that he breathed a sigh of relief.

Feng Junrui asked Gao Jinku to report that he had successfully entered the Fuzhou boundary, and he couldn't help but laugh at Wan Yuan Ji for not knowing how to use soldiers, and the large open land in front of him was suitable for charging in formation, but there was not a single Ming army here.

He commanded the brigade to set up camp in an open field of vision, and he personally led a team of cavalry to continue to search the west for the position of the main force of the Ming army.

Feng Junrui's search made a great discovery - he had just run more than ten miles and climbed over a low mountain, and he immediately saw a large area of cooking smoke at the foot of the mountain from a distance.

He hurriedly retreated to the east side of the ridge, and then crossed the hill on foot with only a few retinues, taking binoculars from his own soldiers to take a closer look.

I saw a large open land at the foot of the mountain, the Ming army camp stretched for two or three miles, and the army was making a fire to make food.

Feng Junrui was overjoyed in his heart, and sent his henchmen down the mountain to explore.

After a short time, his men returned, and reported that there were many camps under the mountain, and it was estimated that there were eight or nine thousand men in the military tents. Looking at the flags, there are Wan, Jie, Su and other flags, and the styles of the tents are also obviously different, and they are clearly gathered into several parts.

Feng Junrui didn't say a word, leaving the two of them staring, and he flew back to the camp.

As soon as the Gao Jinku Brigade crossed the Lufang River, it saw Feng Junrui coming in a hurry, and as soon as he jumped off his horse, he said loudly: "Yu, General Yu, I found a large Ming army about sixteen miles ahead. ”

"Oh?" Gao entered the warehouse to look at the surrounding terrain and fought against the water, which was very unfavorable.

He was about to order the whole army to be on alert, when he heard Feng Junrui say again: "The Ming army's camp is located at the foot of the hillside, and the battalion is several miles, and the defense is quite sloppy. The subordinates felt that it was a good opportunity to attack the camp! ”

Gao Jinku hurriedly asked about the situation of the Ming army, and also thought that it was very suitable for a sneak attack, and asked cautiously: "Is there any fraud?" ”

Feng Junrui said with a smile: "General, if Wan Yuan Ji is proficient in the art of war, how can he not fight our army in a decisive battle by the Lufang River?" His subordinates only looked at him with a straw bag. ”

"I have information that the Ming army has a total of 18,900 people this time," Gao Jinku doubted, "If there is only half here, where are the rest of the Ming army?" ”

Feng Junrui was a little anxious, "Wan Yuan Ji loves to defend the city the most, and the people here should be his outposts, and the main force may be in Jinxi City." He thought for a while and said, "If the general is worried about the sneak attack of the Ming army, his subordinates can lead the forward attack on the camp first, and the general will lead the army to delay." These thousands of Ming troops, their subordinates should be able to break it! ”

Gao Jinku nodded at this time, "This is very good, if the enemy army is different, I will respond with the Chinese army." ”

Zhang Jiayu kept looking at the low mountain, and he was already a little anxious.

The spies he sent had already discovered that Gao Jinku's army was more than ten miles away, and if the Qing army did not attack the camp, he would have to take the initiative to attack the enemy, and then pretend to abandon the camp and escape.

However, if you storm the enemy's position, you will definitely sacrifice a lot of soldiers. Just when he was a little irritable, he heard the gong in the camp to warn, and then a large number of people and horses swarmed down the hillside.

The soldiers on Zhang Jiayu's side got out of the military tents one after another, leaned on the edge of the improvised wall, pointed their bows and crossbows and firearms at the hillside, and rattan players and spearmen stood on the sides of the long-range troops, ready to support at any time.

To play defeat, you must make the enemy feel that you have won with hard work. Zhang Jiayu knew how to do it, and the resistance of the Ming army was very fierce.

Feng Junrui divided 1,000 troops to outflank the two flanks in advance, and at this time, he led hundreds of cavalry to rush out of the battle formation, and the surrounding foot soldiers immediately suppressed the Ming army with arrows and firearms.

The war horses rushed down from a high place, and they were extremely powerful, and easily broke through the wall made of a row of wooden planks of the Ming army. Someone behind him immediately shouted: "The Ming military camp is broken, go on!" ”

Thousands of foot soldiers poured into the Ming army camp in an instant from the gap opened by the cavalry. At the same time, both flanks of the Ming army were also attacked, and as all the defensive forces were concentrated on the Qing army rushing down the hillside, both flanks were immediately breached.

Zhang Jiayu saw that the fire was almost over, and ordered a retreat.

As the herald shouted: "The enemy is fierce, retreat!" The Ming army hurriedly dropped the flag, turned around and ran.

Feng Junrui didn't chase after him, and asked his subordinates to search the Ming army camp first. It was not until a large amount of military rations, gunpowder, paperwork and other items were found that he urgently ordered the pursuit, and on the other side, he sent someone to send the news back to Gao Jinkuzhong's army, indicating that the military camp had been broken.
