Chapter Seventy-Eight: A Great Victory

On the third watch, Zhu Cheng led the 200 soldiers and horses under his command to go back, and the less than 1,000 soldiers and horses led by Zhang Xun went to the camp of Lei Shu after making food, a total of 150 cavalry and 800 elite infantry - that is, the selected Danyang soldiers, and went towards the camp tent of Lei Shu.

At first, Zhang Xun wanted to go directly without making a sound, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that they would be vigilant again because they couldn't hear the sound, so he arranged for 200 people to continue to make noise, and when they arrived at the camp of the Lei Book Army, the snoring in the camp was like thunder, and even the guards guarding the camp fell asleep at the gate of the camp.

Seeing this, Zhang Xun breathed a long sigh of relief, after all, this is the first time Zhang Xun has used this kind of tired strategy, and he was afraid of the consequences in case of failure, but now when he looks at this situation, it is simply intolerable not to win!

Zhang Xun whispered to the soldiers under the account.

"Qin Huai listens to orders!"

Zhang Xun held the war knife in his hand and said confidently.

"The last general!"

Qin Huai and Zhang Xun fought together, and they had already formed a tacit understanding between the two, and when they heard Zhang Xun's order, they instantly fell to their knees.

"After you take fifty cavalry and rush into the main camp of the Lei Book, you must start setting fire from east to north, and be sure to burn to the north side of the camp tent, so that there will be a great chaos in the camp of the Lei Book, and the grain and grass camp in the Lei Book Army will also be handed over to you, depending on the situation, whether it is burned depends on the battle situation of the two armies."

"The last general commands!"

Qin Huai naturally knew that the matter of grain and grass was a heavy responsibility.

"Where is Chen Bang!"

"The last general!"

Chen Bang has joined Yuan Yao's Yulin Army since the Battle of Jiangting to defend the city, and he has been extremely respectful of Zhang Xun's martial arts, but now he is more respectful because of the power of Zhang Xun's strategy.

"You take fifty cavalry, after rushing into the main camp of Lei Shu, contrary to Qin Huai, you must start setting fire from west to south, and be sure to burn to the south side of the camp tent. Cause chaos in the southwest part of the Lei Book camp, and then rush to the aid of the main account. ”

"The last general commands."

"I'll bring my own army and go straight to the main tent!" Zhang Xun said in a condensed voice.

Originally, Zhang Xun still had a headache about the 3,000 soldiers and horses in Lei Book, but now he started a surprise attack directly, and it is estimated that these 3,000 soldiers and horses will not be able to react even if they wake up.

Zhang Xun waved his hand and led a thousand men and horses under his tent to charge towards the Lei Book camp, and the soldiers guarding the camp suddenly woke up and wanted to shout, but before the sound came out, Zhang Xun pierced his throat with an arrow and died directly.

At this moment, there was silence in the thunder book camp, only the snoring sounded like thunder in the camp.

After a night of exhaustion, now is the time when they sleep the deepest, and they have been tossed all night, so the current Lei Shu soldiers and horses are all sleeping like dead pigs.

......Boom, boom, horses' hooves rolling, the earth trembled.

"Not good, enemy attack!" One of the guards in the main camp shouted.

"It's been a night of enemy attacks, and it's gone in a while. Didn't you listen to what the second master said? This is called a tired soldier's plan, a tired soldier's plan, do you understand! ”

"Really, you're sick! It's not the first time I've heard it, and I'm still shocked. Someone shouted angrily, clearly disgusted that the man had disturbed their sleep.

The other soldiers had heard countless enemy attacks in one night, and in the previous dozen or so enemy attacks, they had become numb, and they were not moved at all when they heard this man speak.

The warning soldier was scolded by everyone, and it was difficult to say anything, but after waiting for a while, a black shadow flashed not far away, and the rumbling of horses' hooves was almost close.

"Enemy attack, really enemy attack."

The soldier pointed into the distance, looked at the horses, and the shadows behind him, and shouted, "No, you can see for yourself! ”

"I said can you not get nervous ....... I don't let people sleep, I'm damn it. ”

But the warning man became louder and louder, and finally directly pressed the head of the companion next to him, and when he picked it up, he was ready to let him look back: "Look at that, it's cavalry, it must be Zhang Xun's guy attacking the camp!" ”

Lying on the ground and squinting at his companion just wanted to refute, and he was so annoyed by this warning guy that he was so annoyed that he actually pressed my head and wanted to stand up and make a gesture with him and shut him up.

But the time was fast, and at this time, I saw a sharp arrow as fast as the wind, and suddenly appeared in the middle of the neck of the warning soldier, and pierced the throat of the warning soldier directly, and then the soldier fell directly, and the blood dripped down the body directly to the body of his companion.

"Damn, I haven't hit you yet!"

The soldier was a little puzzled, but looking at the arrow, and the still hot blood on his body, he reacted instantly, and turned his head to see the rows of cavalry rumbling towards him, and he was so frightened that he almost collapsed to the ground.

"Ahh Enemy attack ......! ”

In an instant, the soldiers, who had just sneered at their comrades, burst into chaos and roared.

...... the night, I couldn't see how many death-like arrows flew in, forming a turbulent black torrent, directly covering the entire camp. With a scalp-tingling clatter, the nearest soldiers were almost all killed by a rain of arrows.

The cavalry horses are fast, but there are not many cavalry under Zhang Xun's hands, and the strategy of a night of fatigue is of course the enemy's slowness for a few minutes.

After Zhang Xun led the cavalry to break the gate of the wall, he then ran straight towards the main tent.

Next, Qin Huai led fifty people to ride away, and along the way, he made a chicken and dog uneasy in the Lei Book camp, and Zhang Xun originally arranged the task for Qin Huai to let Qin Huai mess up the camp, and then depending on the situation, if his side was at a disadvantage, he would burn the grain and grass in the Lei Book Army, but now there is obviously no need to do this, because these soldiers in the Lei Book Army have been running for a few days, plus they haven't slept well all night, and they can't open their eyelids, as long as they kill the Lei Book, the grain and grass are their own.

Chen Bang also led fifty cavalry to the south side, and rockets flew along the way, burning the camp tent in the dark night into a sea of fire.

Zhang Xun led a hundred Yulin troops in his hands and began to raid towards the main tent, as long as they killed Lei Shu, these soldiers and horses had no room to turn over

The remaining soldiers and horses began to wreak havoc in the Lei Book battalion, and many of the soldiers of the Lei Book had basically not yet woken up.

This is completely a one-sided battle, although Zhang Xun has few soldiers and horses, but because of exhaustion, Lei Xun's army has no decent resistance force.

"The second master, the camp has been attacked, the camp has been attacked......"

A general ran to the camp and roared at the thunder book.

"Attack his grandmother's battalion, leave them alone, they want to use the tactics of exhausting soldiers. We rest ours. ”

Lei Ji waved his hand in a daze, he rested very late last night, because he was afraid that Zhang Xun would really attack the camp, so he was very vigilant, and he didn't sleep until the second watch, and when he slept, he sent a general to pay attention to the situation.

"What? Raid the camp! ”

After Lei Ji finished speaking in a daze, he suddenly reacted, opened his eyes directly, and turned over from the tent suddenly, and then heard the shouting and killing sound outside that shook his eardrums.

Suddenly, an arrow that had traveled far flew down from the tent of the thunder book, fell directly in front of the thunder book, and stuck it on the table in front of the thunder book.

"Ding"

The arrow stuck straight into the table, and the arrow went straight into the table, and the arrow flickered behind it, making a buzzing sound.

Lei Shu almost got a headshot.

"Damn Zhang Xun, I must kill you!"

Lei Shu remembered yesterday's tired plan, and instantly figured out the conspiracy of Zhang Xun, the dog thief, and slapped his angry fist on the table, which discharged a big crack on the table.

"Prepare the horses! Prepare my horses! ”

Lei Shu hurriedly dressed, then picked up his long sword and rode out.

Under the shouting and shouting of the soldiers in the Lei Book Army, almost all the soldiers and horses woke up, and saw that the enemy army had rushed directly into their own camp tents, and the 2,000 soldiers and horses were all covered, but under the organized organization of the leaders and generals, they still quickly reflected, so more than 2,000 soldiers and horses began to melee with Zhang Xun's men.

Of course, in this case, because the soldiers in the Lei Book Army were tired and overwhelmed, their strength was greatly reduced, and they didn't even have half of their usual ability, but they were numerous, and they still caused certain losses to Zhang Xunjun.

Lei Ji rode his horse straight towards the battle circle, intending to reorganize the resistance, but after the generals and commanders fought, there was no way for his soldiers and horses to temporarily break away from the battle of Zhang Xun's soldiers and horses, so they could not retreat to the place of the commander's banner.

Lei Shu shouted for a long time and no one listened to him, and in the end, the battle in the camp tent of Lei Shu was directly chaotic, seeing that Zhang Xun's troops and horses were unstoppable, several generals under Lei Shu came over and asked him to quickly lead the soldiers to escape.

If Lei Shu takes the lead in escaping, what do you say is going to be fought in this battle? Isn't it completely defeated, but Lei Shu can't help but leave at this moment, if he doesn't leave, I'm afraid he will be directly wiped out by Zhang Xun.

Although Lei Shu was reluctant, but under the persuasion of his subordinates, he still didn't pick up the guy and fight hard with Zhang Xun, after all, the scene of Zhang Xun killing Zhao Yi with a knife yesterday is still vivid, Lei Shu also knows that if he really fights with Zhang Xun, I am afraid that the only one who will suffer is himself, and he will save his life, and he is not afraid of no firewood, where is Lei Shu willing to send him to death.

In the end, Lei Book and others led seven or eight hundred soldiers to escape under the desperate cover of the rest of the soldiers, saying that those soldiers were desperately covering, but in fact, they were thrown down, because Lei Book had no way to fight back in a passive situation, and if he really rushed back, I am afraid that the stupid Lei Book Army would also be slaughtered at all.

Therefore, Lei Shu rushed back to the way he came with an extremely sad and indignant mood, and left Zhang Xun with 3,000 stones of grain and grass and nearly 300 war horses.

At the end of the battle, in Zhang Xun's slogan of "those who surrender will not be killed", the remaining more than 2,000 soldiers and horses were under the choice of life and death, and finally more than 1,000 people laid down their arms, and Lei Shu's army suffered more than 1,000 casualties, of which more than 200 were seriously injured or killed.

The casualties on Zhang Xun's side were much smaller, but the combat strength of the Lei Xun army should not be underestimated, there were less than three hundred casualties on Zhang Xun's side, and only dozens of them died.

Moreover, Qin Huai seized 3,000 stone of grain, and Zhang Xun finally cleaned up the battlefield and seized other messy things. This time, it was really a big victory, but Zhang Xun knew that Chen Lan was still in the future, so he didn't show too much excitement, and led the soldiers and horses under his account to escort the general, and went straight to Jiangting with the spoils of war.

Lei Shu and others led seven or eight hundred people to escape, among the fleeing people, there were many people who had not yet put on their clothes, let alone armor, and even many of them kept up because they saw Lei Shu's military flag, and they didn't even have a war knife in their hands, and the generals with horses rode on their horses and fled, and those without horses also ran wildly behind with their feet, so they could manage the rest.

Lei Ji was elated, with the idea that three thousand soldiers and horses would break through the Jiang Pavilion, and he was excited to know the east and west, north and south, and now he was running with a group of soldiers and horses...... Panic is like a lost dog.
