"I think it can be like this!" After waiting for everyone to express their opinions, I said, "We don't know the situation of Shenglong yet, so we can let Master An send capable people to infiltrate Shenglong to investigate the enemy's reality, and the army can rest here to recover." (http; Once we have accurate information, we can make corresponding arrangements. In addition, I believe that Lord An must have a way for people to sneak out of the multi-state defense line! ”

An Boya nodded and said, "There is no problem with a few people!" It's hard to do it when there are too many people! ”

"A few people are enough, please let someone sneak out of Duobang with my people and my letters, tell Lord Kang of our news, and make an appointment with him to attack Duobang!"

"No problem!"

I nodded and said, "That's good!" Actually, you don't have to worry about the problem that we will be revealed! Originally, we had two plans when we were fighting, one was to take down the dragon in one fell swoop with a lightning sneak attack; The other is to fight the grass and snakes, the battle is not effective, and it cannot be conquered for a while, and Annam will send reinforcements to many states, as long as the line of many states is different, our army will attack the defense line of many states from north to south, and break through in one fell swoop! So don't worry about us being revealed, it's in our plan! ”

Razhendra nodded, and the generals also felt that this method was the safest, and immediately decided to implement it. At the same time, Rajandra issued several orders, such as no noise during the day and no fire at night, and tried not to expose our army too early.

That night, two squads with different orders came out in disguise.

An Boya was well aware of the terrain of Thang Long and the deployment of the defenders, and he drew it from memory that night, and asked the generals to carefully examine and figure out the tactics of battle.

Two days later, Hosaku, who had infiltrated Thang Long, returned, and instead of losing anything, they brought back a man.

When the man saw Amboya, he immediately fell to his knees and wept bitterly.

It turned out that this person's name was Lan Yong, and he was originally a young general under An Boya, and An Boya had a life grace for him back then! When Li was in turmoil, this person was the guard of the north gate, and it was he who opened the city gate to let An Boya and others live. At that time, he also said that he wanted to follow An Boya, but An Boya refused, he told sù that this person would come back one day, and then he would receive a miracle as an internal deservant, and An Boya told him to endure the humiliation and burden, and Li Shi was false and wronged, and only waited for the next day to build an immortal work. Amboya knew his loyalty, and specially ordered Hosaku to find him. As soon as he heard that An Boya had called back, he was really overjoyed, and immediately asked Hosaku to bring him in.

According to what he said, most of the defenders of Thang Long City and the six surrounding fortresses were transferred to the front line of many states, and now there are only more than 24,000 old and weak garrisons in Thang Long City, and the other is the 2,000 forbidden troops guarding the royal city, most of these two thousand people are the children of the Li clan, they are extremely well equipped, and they are also extremely loyal to the Li clan, and they are the most elite troops in Thang Long City.

An Boya immediately asked him to return to Thang Long, and open the city gate at the end of the night tomorrow and the beginning of the morning to receive our army into the city. Lan Yong gladly agreed and returned to Thang Long.

According to Lan Yong's intelligence, we made a corresponding battle plan: with our army as the vanguard force, sneak in from the south gate guarded by Lan Yong, and with Lan Yong's cooperation, divide the troops and attack the four barracks at the south gate at the same time, the four barracks have the heavy task of guarding the palace on the periphery, and have always been equipped with heavy troops to garrison, once these four outer barracks are captured, the combat strength of the enemy army in Shenglong will be reduced by nearly half, and the loss of these four barracks will shake the palace of Annam, and the Li clan will be terrified, maybe he has not yet enlightened what is going on, his palace has been surrounded by us; At the same time as our army attacked the barracks, the Cham troops sent 4,000 men to feint the east and south gates, attracting the Annam army and disturbing the sight of the Annam generals, making it impossible for them to make correct judgments; 10,000 soldiers of Champa went out in advance and went out to the southeast of Thang Long, choosing the terrain to build fortifications. In order to prevent our army from landing on Thang Long by sea to attack Thang Long, Annam specially deployed some troops on the line from Thang Long to Hai Phong, in addition, there are still remnants of the Annam Naval Division in Haiphong, if these troops come to support, I am afraid that it will cause serious damage to our army; After our army entered the city, the rest of the soldiers of the city entered the city from the south gate under the leadership of Razhendra and attacked the moving Annam troops; The north gate left him alone, leaving a passage for the Annan people to call for help.

Dinner was eaten very late on this day, and after dinner, everyone had a good rest, and after sorting out the equipment and equipment, the army walked out of the jungle in batches.

The weather is not very good tonight, and the North Star is nowhere to be seen, and it seems that an autumn rain is brewing. Originally, it was planned to attack at the beginning of the end of the night, thinking that the moonlight would shine in the second half of the night to facilitate the battle, but I am afraid that this wish will not be realized.

Luo Rou and I are at the forefront of the troops, and after entering the city, we will lead our troops to attack the enemy separately, so we cherish the time together. He Ruitian followed behind him with a large army, which made Luo Rou and I have no chance to whisper, but it is enough to be able to walk together, and I will always make up for it in the future if I can't talk about my heartfelt regrets.

An hour later, the pitch-black city of Thang Long appeared in front of us.

A soldier learned that a frog croaked, croaked, croaked three times, but before the sound landed, three long cricket chirps came from the city. This is the code we agreed with Lan Yong.

When I was young, the heavy city gate slowly looked up. The people of Kaesong were very careful, and the gate was so heavy that it didn't make the slightest noise.

The city gate opened a crack, and as soon as one passed sideways, Lan Yong squeezed out.

Everyone has seen it for a long time, and this is not the time to chat (of course, there is also a reason for everyone's language barrier, although there is an interpreter, but after all, it is not very convenient, it is okay to get down to business, just chat or something). After everyone greeted each other with fists, the city gates were completely open.

I, Luo Rou took the lead in entering the city with Lan Yong on the left and right, so that even if Lan Yong has two hearts, Luo Rou and I should be able to restrain him, and the enemy will throw a mouse bogey. He Ruitian stayed outside the city for the time being, once Lan Yong had two hearts, the troops would also have a leader, so that they would not mess up.

It turned out that Luo Rou and I seemed to be overcautious, and entered the city safe and sound, and came to Lan Yong's command post. Not long after, He Ruitian also came and reported that the army had all entered the city.

The interpreter translated Lan Yong's words: "General Lan hosted a banquet for the commanders of the four barracks tonight, and the chief and deputy commanders were all so drunk that they couldn't wake them up even if it was thunder." ”

I couldn't help but praise: "Good strategy, in this way, the enemy group has no leader, and our army will definitely attack twice with half the effort and succeed immediately!" ”

The interpreter translated my words, and Lan Yong was very happy after hearing this, and shook his hand again and again, not knowing whether he was being humble or proud.

The interpreter added: "General Lan will send 100 men to guide and assist in the attacks of the various military camps, while he himself will stay at the south gate to receive the Champa army into the city. ”

I agreed, and soon our troops were separated according to the prior plan. I, Luo Rou, He Ruitian and a capable thousand households each led 2,500 people to attack a military camp, Brother Niu was assigned to Luo Rou's team by me, although there are not many cavalry, can not increase much combat power, but with them, even if there is any accident in the battle, Luo Rou still has a great chance of running. After admonishing each other with Luo Rou to be careful, the troops from all walks of life burrowed into the darkness of the city under the guidance of the Annan Army guide.

The night of Thang Long was as quiet as a ghost town. The previous Thang Long was not like this, listening to what An Boya said, the former Thang Long also had a rich night life with the prosperity of the Central Plains, and the whole city was happy all night, just because the name of the Li clan was not right, and he was afraid that someone would rebel, so it was stipulated that he was not allowed to walk on the street at night, and once he was executed on the spot, there was such a rule, and he dared to come out at night?

It just so happened that this was beneficial to our army, at least reducing the possibility of our army being shown in advance, thus minimizing the reaction time of the Annamite people and avoiding civilian casualties.

After a short time, they arrived outside a barracks, and under the dim wind lamp, more than a dozen guards shrugged their heads listlessly, as if they would fall asleep at any time.

As soon as the appointed time for the attack came, I waved my hand lightly, and twenty agile soldiers came out of the crowd, quietly approaching the enemy with short knives in their hands, the brightness of the wind lantern was limited, and the light was only about three feet around, and these sleepy Annam people knew that there was a soul seeker who had locked them in the night.

Walking to the light, the Annamite finally appeared as our soldiers, but the drowsiness greatly reduced their resilience, and the battle ended quietly, and more than a dozen guards were killed by cutting their throats before they had time to make a sound.

The army poured into the barracks like a tide, and the shouts of killing immediately sounded, and in an instant, the entire Thang Long City sounded the battle horn, and the silent Thang Long City instantly fell into the flames of war.

The sleeping enemy army is the best to deal with, and I know the bittersweet of being brought to such a hand when I have just joined the army, so I set the time for the attack at night. It turns out that the sleeping Annan soldiers are also extremely easy to deal with. This military camp originally had more than 7,000 people, and the front-line war was tight, and after several transfers, there were only more than 4,000 people left, and the strength was about twice that of our army, but the combat effectiveness was less than fifty percent of our army (the old, weak, and young were one cause, and the lack of defense in my sleep was another reason), and I had almost no chance to show Xiàn, so I was slaughtered by the army of tigers and wolves under my command.

More than half an hour later, when the first two deputies and the three commanders were all tied up on the bed, the envoys had not yet woken up from drinking, and they were still cursing and swearing in their mouths.

After dealing with the enemy troops in the barracks, the troops were left to guard the prisoners, and the rest of the people immediately marched to the palace of Annam.

How to say that Annan is also a holy place in An Boya's heart, and now our army, Champa and Annam's Chen clan have a good relationship, so before the war, An Boya asked to minimize the losses of Annan soldiers and ordinary people, and not to turn Thang Long into a white land, and we agreed. Therefore, although the battle was fierce, it was limited to the stubborn enemy troops, and we did not torture and kill those soldiers who surrendered, but only guarded them; For ordinary people, it is closer to Qiu no crime, in a word, only kill people and do not set fires.
