Chapter 713: Attacking the camp in the middle of the night

After Peng Hu returned to the camp, he was extremely excited, although he only had a tie today, but he was already overjoyed to be able to tie with an opponent like Liu Yin, and immediately ordered the cattle to be slaughtered and the sheep to be slaughtered, a banquet was held, and Ma Gelong was invited to the banquet. Peng Huwei said left and right: "If it weren't for the leader of the horse to send troops to help today, our army would have been defeated, if it wasn't for the wisdom of the king that day, how could we win today?" ”

Both left and right praised Peng Hu for his wisdom, and Peng Hu couldn't help but feel a little fluttery.

Not long after, Ma Gelong and Ma Gecheng came to the banquet. Although the Malanqiang people have been attached to Lu Shuihu, Peng Hu still commanded his old department with Ma Gelong, and at this time, he set up a village, which was also outside the Lu Shuihu village, and set up another village, relying on each other.

Ma Gelong was originally a person with an arrogant temperament, but at this moment, he was attached to Peng Hu, and he could only lower his posture, and he had to bow his head under the low eaves.

Peng Hu was quite enthusiastic, personally greeted him, and said with a smile: "The leader of the horse does not have to be polite, in today's battle, if it were not for the leader of the horse, this king would have been defeated." Come on, come on, this king has a special banquet, you and I should be drunk today. As he spoke, he pulled Maglon into his seat, sat side by side, and drank with a bowl raised.

It was inconvenient for Ma Gelong to refuse, and he and Peng Hu were drinking together.

Hu people never use any cups when they drink, they directly use the kind of coarse porcelain bowls, and a few bowls of wine are drunk, and they drink freely.

Peng Hu originally belonged to that kind of temperament, a few bowls of wine went down, a little drunk and said: "Today's incident, let me understand a truth, we Hu people, should be watching and helping each other, Han is our real enemy, for a little thing, for a little bit of territory, fight for your life and blood, in the end cheap, or Han, Brother Ma, do you say yes or no?" ”

Ma Gelong smiled and said: "What the king said is very true, in the past, you and I fought with each other, but it was a mistake, and it happened to be profited by the Han people, today you and I work together, no matter how strong Liu Yin is, he is not an opponent." ”

"It's very true, you and I drink this bowl of wine together, and from then on we will be brothers with different surnames, donating our past suspicions and working together for a great cause!" Peng Hu raised the wine bowl again and said loudly.

Ma Gelong stopped with his hand and said, "The king is slow. ”

Peng Hu's face sank, and he said, "What, you don't want to?" ”

Ma Gelong said: "Of course, I would like to be brothers with the king, but this bowl of wine can no longer be drunk. ”

"Brother Ma's plan?" Peng Hu was slightly stunned and said.

Ma Gelong put down the wine bowl and said solemnly: "King, although today's battle is evenly divided, but it is a heavy setback to the morale of the Shu people, Liu Yin took advantage of the excitement to come, defeated and returned, presumably the morale of the soldiers has been low to the extreme, tonight we only need to select the elite soldiers, take advantage of their fatigue and lack of strength, steal the camp and rob the village, will be able to win in a battle, if you can capture Liu Yin, then the matter of Guanzhong will be settled." ”

Peng Hu said with a little doubt: "How do you know that Liu Yin is defenseless, if he can't succeed in stealing the camp, or he may suffer from it?" ”

Ma Gelong said confidently: "The king is too worried, the Shu people have worked far away, traveled a long distance, and after a day of fierce fighting, are these soldiers really iron men?" Even if Liu Yin is prepared, at best, it is just to send more patrols and sentinels, as long as we send an elite division to attack its large camp, we will be able to win all battles, even if we are invincible, it is easy to retreat. ”

Peng Hu was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked people to withdraw the banquet, and selected 20,000 elite soldiers, led by his cronies Peng Dangzhong and Ma Gelong, to go to the Shu army camp to rob the camp, and he personally led 10,000 elite soldiers to meet halfway, and at the same time let people guard the camp and not give the Shu army any opportunity to take advantage of.

Ma Gelong also ordered the 5,000 elite soldiers of his headquarters, joined with Peng Dangzhong's 10,000 horses, and quietly advanced towards the Shu army camp under the dim moonlight.

Ma Gelong's grudge against Liu Yin is deeper than Peng Hu, Ma Lanshan is a fire, and I don't know how many Ma Lanqiang people have been burned, most of these people are Ma Lanqiang's women, children, old and weak, is the root of Ma Lanqiang, and a fire of the Shu army wiped out all the hopes of Ma Gelong, even he had to live a life under the fence, such a day, so that Ma Gelong is simply fed up, how to take revenge on the Shu people, has become Ma Gelong's greatest wish.

In fact, Ma Gelong is also very clear that stealing camps and robbing villages is not a good choice, once the Shu army is prepared, it is basically very difficult to succeed, but through the daytime battle, Ma Gelong also clearly saw that all the forces of Lu Shuihu and Ma Lanqiang combined, can only fight a tie with Liu Yin's men and horses, you know, Liu Yin's army is more than that, if the war is unfavorable, Liu Yin can mobilize some reinforcements, at that time, Lu Shuihu and Ma Lanqiang, who no longer have any backup, can only sit and wait for death.

Of course, Magelong didn't want this to be his final result, and if he wanted to reverse this unfavorable situation, he had to win by surprise, and now it seems that stealing camps and robbing villages has become Maglon's last resort.

Although the risk is very high, as long as there is one percent hope, Ma Gelong will do 100 percent of his efforts, and in order to avenge the blood hatred, Ma Gelong has no hesitation.

Fifteen thousand light horsemen marched between the valleys of the Jingyang River, and in order to keep silent, all the horses were shut up, and all the soldiers had a small wooden stick in their mouths, so that the whole team could hardly make any sound except for the crisp sound of horses' hooves, and if it was possible, Ma Gelong even wished to dispose of the sound of horses' hooves.

In fact, it is not difficult to eliminate the sound of horses' hooves, as long as the four hooves of the war horse are wrapped with a soft cloth, you can achieve a silent effect, but it is much more cumbersome to do so, one or two horses are good to say, if fifteen thousand war horses are operated like this, it is obviously too late in time.

So Ma Gelong finally gave up the plan to wrap the horse's hooves, in his opinion, it is difficult to completely conceal this military operation, the Ming Gang and secret posts sent by the Shu army on the periphery will also find their movements in the first time, and the only thing that can be counted on now is that the marching speed of this cavalry has increased to the extreme, even if the sentinels of the Shu army have discovered them, then they must rush to enter the camp of the Shu army before these outposts.

Not far away, the flickering lights in the Shu army camp can be faintly seen, and Qiang Hu's light cavalry is only a few miles away from the target, as long as they maintain this speed, they will soon be able to kill the Shu army camp.

The corners of Ma Gelong's mouth hung a hint of anger. (To be continued.) )
