Chapter 47: Stealing the Camp

Liu Tingzhou's occupation of Feixiaji is a series of battles.

The siege of Xuzhou reached the last critical moment, and the exiled army was also desperate to drive the officers and soldiers crossing the Huai River down the Huai River and recapture Feixiaji. The Wandering People's Army attacked one after another, and the Duhuai Army could not spread out in the area of hundreds of zhang radius of Feixia Rock, and there was no time to breathe.

It is said that Yan Ji is so brave and brave, and Huaisi is not much inferior.

Most of the soldiers of the Huai Army and the Siyang Liumin Army came from Huaisi, and it was impossible to say who was superior or inferior in terms of soldiers.

The two sides also pressed up all the elite soldiers who dared to fight in their hands at the beginning, and they both wanted to compete for merit in one fell swoop, not giving each other a chance, and the battle was extremely tragic and fierce.

The Duhuai army has the advantage of being well-equipped, and the terrain is high and superior, but the bandits in Siyang supervised the battle of Qu Shuai Ma Lantou from Suyu, Siyang and other places to draw nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and at the same time attack Feixiaji, they also sealed the mouth on the north and northwest sides of Feixiaji, so that thousands of soldiers and horses of the Duhuai army crowded on Feixiajitou and could not attack.

The soldiers who can fight in the Duhuai army are only four or five thousand people, and it is inevitable that they will be tired after three days of fighting, and the newly recruited soldiers will press the Xueliang blade of the supervising team to the battlefield, but they will collapse if they can't bear much time, and they must be replaced in time.

Most of the exiled army in Siyang were veterans who followed the incident in Hongzepu at the beginning, and they had been fighting in the world for two or three years, although the equipment was poor, they had accumulated some skills to survive and avoid danger on the battlefield, and the advantage of the exiled army in terms of strength was much more obvious than that of the crossing army.

Tao Chun, who had sneaked through Huai before, still had forty or fifty subordinates, and he was not in a hurry to kill the blockade line of the Liumin Army and went to Feixiaji to join Liu Tingzhou and them. A large number of displaced people's troops pressed near Feixiaji, making the Huaisi area more vacant, and Tao Chun contacted the local private armed forces of the Hao tribe who were still holding the village, and interspersed guerrilla attacks in the depths of Huaisi, forming a considerable degree of containment of the displaced people's army.

One wants to hold Feixiaji, and then break the enemy and march north to aid Xuzhou; One wants to block the road for the officers and soldiers crossing the Huai River to advance north, and then they want to capture Feixiaji and drive the officers and soldiers crossing the Huai River down.

The battle lasted for three days, the two sides left thousands of corpses around the northern ridge of Feixiaji, the Huai army failed to capture Feixiaji to advance north, the Liumin army failed to recapture Feixiaji, and Tao Chun gathered hundreds of people to guerrilla in the hinterland of Huaisi.

Dense clouds like fish scales spread across the sky, the wind was fierce, the branches fell and the grass broke, and the air was filled with a strong and stinking smell of blood, and the branches and birds croaked.

I don't know where more than a dozen wild dogs ran out of nowhere, like wolves, sneaking into the battlefield, sniffing and looking for fresh human flesh to eat, and a pair of dog eyes were also red, as if they had eaten too much human flesh.

"Whoosh" a dozen arrows were fired, and four or five wild dogs were shot at once, and the rest whimpered and scattered.

More than 100 men who were conscripted with the army walked into the battlefield, carried the corpses to one place regardless of whether they were enemies or enemies, and threw four or five wild dogs that were killed by arrows into the pile of dead people, one by one, all of them were stacked into a hill as tall and short, poured oil, piled up with charcoal, lit a fire, and watched the flames rise, and soon the wind blew into a flame and a fire, burning the north ridge of Feixiaji red......

After doing these things three or four times, people become numb, and these servants have to go to the battlefield to pick up the remnants of the soldiers and break their armor......

Liu Tingzhou stood on the north ridge of Feixiaji, the crimson official robe on his body was torn, he put his hand on his belt, and looked at the battlefield like Shura hell under the slope, Teng Xingyuan, Xiao Kuian, Ma Fu, Ma Rulong and others from Shanyang Zhixian County stood around.

Ge Cunxiong has always led the Jinghai No. 3 Water Battalion to be responsible for the rear route of the Huai Army, concurrently transporting grain and grass supplies, and even assuming the responsibility of liaising with the Huai Army on behalf of Lin Lian.

Although the exiled army was sent back, they set up camp more than four or five hundred steps away.

The Duhuai army was unable to build a strong camp on Feixia Rock, and the Wandering Army was unable to build a strong fortress on the north side of Feixia Rock to prevent the Duhuai army from breaking through.

"The control envoy is in Shukou, although the camp of the exile army in the narrow bridge has also launched an offensive, but the movement is really limited, so we have to wait for the generals on our side to run out, and the control envoy will have movement on that side." Teng Xingyuan was resentful, and in front of Ge Cunxiong, he no longer concealed his dissatisfaction with Lin Lian.

In successive battles, the soldiers of Shanyang County were the main force charging into battle, and the casualties were particularly tragic. Don't say to rescue Xuzhou, I'm afraid that if I lay down Siyang Village and advance to Suyu City, the soldiers of Shanyang County will be almost consumed.

Ge Cunxiong snorted coldly and said, "What should my family adults do to meet Lord Teng's wishes?" ”

Lin Lian was appointed as the envoy of the Huaidong Jingkou system, nominally the chief boss of the three counties of Huaidong, and it was not Teng Xingyuan's turn to point fingers at Lin Lian. Ge Cunxiong asked rhetorically, which was quite unkind.

Liu Tingzhou's eyes were like cold lightning, and he glanced at Ge Cunxiong, he had long understood Lin Lian's self-respecting thoughts in supporting the army, and he didn't want to intensify the contradictions between the two sides at this time, so he said lightly: "In the past three or four days, it has been a tough battle of killing people, our army has suffered heavy casualties, and the bandits in front of the Isoqian have also become tired. If the system can be transferred all the way to the elite, the enemy base will be broken like a bamboo, and Siyang and Suyu will also be at your fingertips...... Can Captain Ge help me give me a sentence to the envoy? ”

"Lord Liu, please speak." Ge Cunxiong said.

"The system envoy is the head of the Huaidong officials, and the victory of Siyang is also the victory of the system, and the defeat is also the defeat of the system," Liu Tingzhou said, "There is a great victory to be obtained, why is the system envoy stingy to take it?" ”

Ge Cunxiong secretly said in his heart: After three or four days of hard battles, he couldn't leave Feixiaji and advance north, only then did he think of the Jiangdong Left Army, Liu Tingzhou may not have the idea of breaking through the bamboo, defeating the bandits, and giving the Jiangdong Left Army a good look.

"If Lord Liu's words, I will give them to my family, but it won't be of any use in the future," Ge Cunxiong said, "My Jiangdong Left Army will come to the west, and the bandits Chen Hansan and Sun Zhuangbu will also come to the west." If Lord Liu is the same as Lord Teng, thinking that the Jiangdong Left Army is opportunistic, it might as well spend three or five days, the two armies will change positions by water, let Lord Liu and Lord Teng attack north from Shukou, and the Jiangdong Left Army will defend this Feixiaji and see what the result is? ”

Teng Xingyuan's nose was crooked, if it weren't for Ge Cunxiong coming on behalf of Lin Lian, their back road would still rely on the Jinghai Sea Camp, and he would definitely be unable to help but reprimand this rude military general who spoke wildly on the spot.

Liu Tingzhou's face was gloomy, Xiao Kuian's anger was so strong that Ge Cunxiong was excited, and he immediately asked Liu Tingzhou for battle: "It must not necessarily rely on the system, there is not only one male army in the Jiangdong Left Army in the world, please allow me to lead the dead soldiers to attack the enemy camp tonight, and open a gap for the adults to lead the army to the north......"

A small number of elites steal the camp at night, which can usually cause chaos and collapse of the entire enemy camp. When the two battalions are at a stalemate, a night attack on the camp is an easy strategy to think of.

Liu Tingzhou had to think about Xiao Kuian's suggestions.

Teng Xing looked at the sky from afar, the clouds were thick, and it would rain heavily at any time, and he was afraid that there would be no good weather at night, and said, "I'm afraid it won't work tonight......"

"I'm afraid the rain will stop the night before," Liu Tingzhou said, "Maybe you can try to steal the camp, get ready here, and when the rain stops, you will touch it immediately......"

Ge Cunxiong looked at the camp of the wandering army, it was very simple, the campfires were set up in an open place, and the campfires would be extinguished when the heavy rain poured.

When the heavy rain stopped, it was the time when the homeless army was looking for dry firewood to light the campfire, and it was indeed a good time to steal the camp.

However, the bandit Qu Shuai is also a person who knows the soldiers, although there is a camp fence four or five hundred steps away from the front, and the earth is used as a base, but the main force is stationed in a camp thousands of steps away from the front base, thinking that there will be a guard against night attacks and stealing camps.

Ge Cunxiong sighed secretly: Before sneaking to send Tao Chun to lead the dead soldiers, at this time, it was Xiao Kuian who personally stood up and led the dead soldiers to steal the camp, and there were really few generals under Liu Tingzhou's command. If Xiao Kuian'an dies in battle, Liu Tingzhou uses Ma Rulong as his general, and Ma Rulong, who looks at Ma Rulong in everything, will listen to him so honestly? Maybe they will unite with Teng Xingyuan and set up Liu Tingzhou.

Ge Cunxiong no longer bored himself, and said goodbye and returned to the south bank.

Liu Tingzhou, Teng Xingyuan and others were in Feixiaji, and the communication between the two sides was not broken, and they had to wait for them to penetrate the hinterland of Huaisi, so that he could take over the defense of Shanyang County openly.

**************

Sun Pole Sun Zhuang rode on horseback, looked at Feixiaji from afar, tightened the reins, and complained to Ma Lantou: "I ran over, but I didn't see how lively you were fighting, you allowed me to take people into battle, keep the front base of the officers and soldiers to break through, you can make up for my lost soldiers and horses in the future, I will personally pick people one by one, and you are not allowed to fool me with blind and broken feet!" ”

Although Chen Han obstructed in every possible way, Sun Zhuang intuitively felt that the main line of attack of the officers and soldiers was Surabaya. Sun Zhuang made Chen Yan lead the army to stay in the east camp of the narrow bridge, which was regarded as an explanation to Chen Hansan, he picked more than 1,000 elites and made a detour to Siyang, just because he was afraid that Ma Lantou would not be able to resist here and break the leak for the officers and soldiers.

"It was also Liu Tingzhou who guarded Shanyang back then, and he was familiar with your tactics. As soon as you show your face, can Liu Tingzhou not guard against your three axes? "Ma Lan's head and face are thin, if he takes off his armor, the whole person is no different from the most ordinary old farmer in Lianghuai, but a pair of eyes are bright and bright, and he is quite extraordinary, looking at the direction of Feixiaji, "After all, they rely on the terrain of Feixiaji, and it is difficult to raise their heads to attack, and they have to lead them down to fight ......"

"Dog, seeing that they have fought so hard for three days, they must be in a hurry to break through to the north. As long as Liu Tingzhou really wants to help Xuzhou, it will be easy to do! It's easier to deal with than that dog's day East China Sea fox! Sun Gongzi said hatefully.

****************

As soon as it was dark, campfires broke out in the barracks of the two armies, and heavy rain poured down.

Except for a few canopies, most of the campfires were extinguished, and they were plunged into darkness with no hands in sight.

explored the road before the rain, and broke through the front base of the bandits twice before, forcing the current main camp to force back; When the heavy rain stopped, the enemy camp would light campfires to show the way, but they were not afraid of the darkness of the night and the fork in the road.

Seventeen or eight thousand bandits were stationed in separate camps behind the front base, but the camp directly north of Feixiaji was the largest, and it was the main camp, and the bandit Qu Marshal Ma Lantou hung the flag on the flagpole at a height of eleven or twelve feet, which was extremely conspicuous - Xiao Kuian was going to steal his main camp this time.

The rain was too strong, and the rain was not very useful, so Xiao Kuian removed the rain, and poured the heavy rain on the armor, pouring the lining to the water. The armor lining was tied to the body, it was very uncomfortable, and it was inconvenient to walk, Xiao Kuian asked Sui Hu to get two hundred sets of leather armor, and asked the soldiers who stole the camp to replace the armor and lining, and wore two layers of leather armor.

Xiao Kuian walked into the tent of the dead soldiers, smelled the aroma of meat, and said: "Scoop me a bowl of meat," and did not take chopsticks, and threw two pieces with his fingers in his mouth, and the grease overflowed, it was really enjoyable, and then he said to the dead soldiers in the tent, "Break the enemy camp, I will borrow two boats, and allow you to go back to the girls of Shanyang Day!" Those who are picky and have rough waists will not be used to wronged you. ”

"At this time, there is an old man who is too rough and rough to give Le Yile, and stealing the camp is even more fucking powerful!" A man said, causing a burst of laughter, how heroic the Huaisi man is, and he doesn't think it's a big deal to stop the rain and steal the camp.

The sky is really not beautiful, this heavy rain fell for half a night, and it stopped at almost dawn. In Xiao Kuian's view, it is also a favorable factor, and when he leads the dead soldiers to disrupt the enemy bandits, the sky is a little bright, and Liu Tingzhou just sends a large team of men to follow up.

Xiao Kuian did not hesitate any longer, and said goodbye to Liu Tingzhou in the dark, watching the main camp of the bandits light the camp fire one after another, he led more than 200 dead soldiers to kill the main camp of the bandits in the dark of the night when he couldn't see his five hands......
