Li Xin galloped all the way, only hated that the war horse under his crotch ran slowly, according to what Li Shuangcai said, He Yilong secretly gathered most of the grain and grass looted along the way in the Yan Temple, ten miles northeast of Tangyi. This news is too important to him, if he can sneak attack his grain route and burn the grain and grass hoarded in Yan Temple, He Yilong's army will definitely collapse without a fight, so that not only the danger of cattle and eggs, but also the crisis of Linqing will be lifted.

In Li Shuangcai's words, there was no mention of the number of people stationed in Yan Temple, but it was not too much, as long as the suddenness of the attack was achieved, the success rate of this surprise attack was still very high.

"General, there's a rogue scout ranger ahead!"

Li Xin looked at it, and saw that there were several war horses hundreds of paces ahead, keeping a certain distance from them, farther and nearer.

"Prepare the longbowmen, shoot them one by one!"

Among the Three Guards were special longbowmen, armed with longbows that could shoot from a distance, and specialized in shooting scouts who were approaching the enemy. As soon as Li Xin gave the order, several horses accelerated sharply, and the forward team stopped after dozens of steps. But seeing a few longbowmen turn over and dismount extremely quickly, bend their bows and arrows to aim, skillfully in one go, with the tremor of the bowstring, the long arrows came out of their hands, suddenly piercing the sky, giving birth to bursts of screams!

Then, the rogue scouts on the horses in the distance fell off their horses, apparently hit by the long arrows of the Three Guards. But even so, there was still a man lying in the saddle of his horse, urging the horse to hasten away, and as to whether this man had been hit by an arrow, because of the haste of time, no one could know for sure for a time.

The consequences of one person slipping through the net are also extremely strict, Li Xin's face is gloomy, and his heart is anxious. The longbowmen's appearance is remarkable, almost impeccable, and even if there are fish that slip through the net, they can only blame God for favoring them. Since the sneak attack is likely to fail, the only option is to attack with a swagger.

But right now, it's noon again, the sun is shining hotly on the head, and it is clear how many people on your side are at a glance, and it is not easy to bluff. As soon as he thought of this, Li Xinzhong suddenly moved, his own soldiers were all cavalry, with excellent mobility, and they were also the elite of the elite specially selected by Lu Jiu from the cavalry battalion. When it comes to bluffing, why not use this cavalry to create a cloud of dust and sand, so as to form a large army to overwhelm the realm and make it difficult to distinguish the false from the real?

So Li Xin immediately asked people to cut branches on the side of the road and drag them behind the war horse, galloped all the way, and sure enough, the dust in the sky was rolled up, and it was really difficult to distinguish the geometry of people and horses from a distance.

Although Li Shuangcai's riding skills are not good, his perseverance is also good, and despite the bumps on horseback, he still follows Li Xin.

"Zhenyu Hou, good, good plan, see the thief, I will definitely be scared when I see it, and I will be scared when I see it, and I will run away!"

Li Xin didn't answer, but Li Shuangcai suddenly said: "It's better for the villain to pretend to be a thief to explore the horse, and go to explore the truth first!" How did Li Xin know that as soon as Li Shuangcai's words came out, he regretted it. Although he had successfully won Cao Zhaoji's trust in Dongchang Mansion City, there were not many fools like Cao Zhaoji after all, if he was found out, wouldn't it be possible for his head to move? He wanted to slap both of his mouths to cure this smug and indiscriminate mouth.

Li Xin weighed it and rejected Li Shuangcai's suggestion, "You are a native of Shandong, how can you gain the trust of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolutionary Left?" Shaanxi talents are their old foundation, and if you go, you will only become meat thrown into their mouths in vain! This matter should not be mentioned again, and between the scarves, I saw this handsome surprise attack, and I was full of energy......"

"General, there is a fence ahead of you!"

The scout returned, and Li Xin looked up and saw a village faintly in front of him, and the fence across the outer edge of the village was incompatible with it, showing people that it was different. Suddenly, the scout galloped back, let go, and landed one of the thieves on the ground.

"God forbid, the scout horse that slipped through the net was hit by an arrow, this guy was delayed halfway, and finally caught up again!"

This made Li Xin overjoyed, he originally thought that this person had slipped through the net, who would have thought that it would be a false alarm, but the smoke and dust in the sky had already risen, stretching for more than ten miles in the sky, and the momentum of this large-scale attack could not be recovered.

It's not that there is no harvest when he catches this goods, and the thief scout is also a nest, and he scares Lele a few times, and then pours beans into a bamboo tube.

"Don't, don't kill me, I know all the words, all the words!"

Full of Henan accents, thinking that this product is not the core of the Fifth Battalion of the Revolution, his loyalty will will naturally be discounted.

"There are only 3,000 elites in the stockade, and there are tens of thousands of military masters, so they will definitely win!"

"Fart! There are also three thousand elites, and they can't lie, and I think it's a thousand for the old, weak, sick and disabled! Even if Li Shuangcai scolded from the sidelines, Li Xin watched the reaction of the thief scout coldly, but it did not stop Li Shuangcai.

In fact, as soon as this person opened his mouth, he felt that this person was not telling the truth, and it was evident from his eyes wandering away and looking left and right.

"I, I'm not lying, everything I say is true......" Before the words fell, Li Shuangcai intuitively felt a cold light flashing in front of him, and he was horrified to find that the scout's head actually rolled to the ground, and a cavity of blood suddenly gushed out, splashing his face all over his body, and he screamed in horror. Although Li Shuangcai has had the experience of responding in the city, he is just an ordinary person after all, where has he ever seen such a stimulating scene, and his heartbeat was out of shape at that time.

Seeing Li Xin inserting the Yanling knife into the scabbard with his backhand, his voice suddenly increased: "Don't delay time with this guy, everyone obeys the order, light the fire rope, and prepare the rocket!" ”

All the soldiers promised in unison!

Li Xin's personal soldiers were all the elite of the elite selected by Lu Jiu from the cavalry battalion, and they were all arrogant, so they naturally took the elite battalion grenadier battalion in the Three Guards Army as their target. The grenadier battalion has always been at the forefront as a combat knife battalion, carrying muskets and goose knives, not to mention, but also carrying five blossom mines, five iron bumps are not light, non-strong people can not withstand such a long march under such a load!

Taking this as a benchmark, the pro-military battalion was naturally configured in this way, not only that, but because it was a cavalry battalion with more horsepower than an infantry battalion, it also carried some strange firearms that were not heavy and not heavy, including this rocket. However, the rocket is quite cumbersome to use, and each time it has to be lit with a fire rope, and then shot by a riding bow. Although the bow is short and has a limited range, when the rocket hits the target, it will explode when it burns out in victory, and the combustibles that burst out of it will ignite nearby flammable materials. It is not widely used in actual combat, but now it is a sharp weapon for arson!

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the village, the other party still did not act rashly, Li Xin's heart had already risen to his throat, this gang of thieves was so calm, it was obvious that the master general was not a mediocre person.

Suddenly, someone shouted, "Look, general, the thieves have escaped!" ”

It turned out that the thieves in the village saw the smoke and dust spreading for more than ten miles, and they knew that they couldn't resist it, so they fled for their lives. I saw a faint commotion on the other side of the stockade, and a group of rebels fled in the opposite direction, the scale was not small, and what the scout said about 3,000 defenders may be true.

If so, this knife is really wronged! Li Shuangcai thought so! How did he know that Li Xin's scout was to arouse the morale and determination of his soldiers to fight!

In fact, not everyone in the village gave up resistance and fled, there are still some people who stick to the village, in this situation where the hearts of the people are scattered, it is especially commendable to be able to respond to the battle so firmly! But Li Xin would not be relentless at all, and after an order, the rocket fell into the stockade like rain......

Outside Zhu Zaozhuang, He Yilong sat firmly in the tent of the Chinese army and gave orders to the generals under his command.

However, some people couldn't suppress their dissatisfaction, and protested: "Big leader, it's the first time to fight with your hands and feet tied up like this, how many more people have died...... Brothers, this battle is aggrieved! ”

He Yilong smiled pitifully: "You know a fart! The officers and soldiers will be a rare general, if you get this person, it is worth hundreds of people, you give me the account, which is the best deal? ”

The general pondered for a while, and replied unwillingly: "It is worth hundreds of people, but, but it is all a shadowless thing, our brothers are dead, but, but it is the matter in front of us!" ”

"! Get out of here, if you can't capture this person alive, you can come and see you! ”

He Yilong didn't have the patience to explain more to the general, and directly used his authority to get rid of him. The general had no choice but to come out of the big tent, in fact, He Yilong was good at closing the army, and the total thousand was his subordinates, which was already well known in the fifth battalion of the Revolution, and the people he received did have many advantages, but they were just favoritism, which made some old brothers who had been following around a little surprised!

He Yilong smacked his lips, and the main general of the other party's officers and troops also took it seriously, the elite of his more than 20,000 people, the torch can be raised to illuminate the night like day, so the wheel battle took turns, and he couldn't gnaw down this difficult bone in one night's effort.

What made He Yilong a little painful was that he lost more than a thousand brothers that night. But from this, he saw the extraordinary residence of the other general, so he was even more determined to capture this person alive.

From this, there is a saying that the subordinates tie their hands and feet to fight with them, and the main general strictly orders the main general of the other side to capture the main general, and the soldiers of the fifth battalion of the left side of the revolution will naturally start to fight, and many times they just pretend to scare and retreat. But the officers and soldiers were fighting in a real way, one would magnify the cannons, the other would set fires, and the brothers who rushed to the front would give their lives without paying attention.

Niu Jinsong's mouth was dry and smoking, and a subordinate scooped up the muddy drinking water from the Grand Canal with a helmet and handed it over, he took it and tilted his neck, drank it all, and then wiped his mouth with his blood-stained right hand, and hissed: "Brothers! I Niu Jinsong has twelve lives of the thief today, and it is worth it to go to see the king of Hades immediately! But we can't lose the face of the general, lose the face of the Three Guards, brothers, fight with me Niu Jinsong and die! ”
