Chapter 105: Xu Huang is trapped

At the foot of Zhutu Mountain, Xu Huang's 500 soldiers and horses were hidden only five miles away from Song Jian's camp.

At noon today, maintaining the return of Xu Huang's troops and horses and the Ji County battalion, Yan Xing's troops were defeated by the enemy on the northern grassland, and Yan Xing, who was known for his unstoppable bravery, led a small number of remnants of the army to open the gate of Ji County.

Xu Huang immediately concluded that the main force of Song Jian's army must have divided its forces at this time, and some of them were on their way back after pursuing Yan Xing on the grassland, and on the other hand, the enemy guarding the camp would also focus their defense on the north. Therefore, he led his army to lurk very close to the south of the enemy camp, intending to attack in the evening.

The best time to sneak attack is at night, but Xu Huang can't launch a night attack, and those soldiers and horses who have defeated Yan Xing on the grassland will not give him a chance to attack at night.

The scout horses sent rushed back to report the situation, and Xu Huang hurriedly asked when he saw it: "How is it, the southern garrison, how are the camp defenders?" ”

Tanma was full of joy, and when he saw Xu Huang, he bowed down and said: "There are few defenses on the two camps on the southwest side of the Heshou camp, and it seems that the enemy army plans to open a stove in the north, and at most four hundred military tents in the south. ”

There are five to six men sleeping in one military tent, and four hundred is only two thousand people. This proportion of tents in the camp is a godsend for Xu Huang. Two thousand is indeed not much for the total number of ** thousand or even tens of thousands.

This is too tempting for Xu Huang, once the raid is successful, it must be a thousand gains, he must do it, just ...... It's easy to attack the camp, but it's hard to kill. After this battle, I am afraid that these robes behind me will almost die. Having been in the military all year round, Xu Huang knows what a fighter is, and he can't lose the opportunity, but he can't take the lives of the Pao Ze brothers to mess around.

Looking at the outline of the Heshou camp in the distance, Xu Huang sighed, called his cronies halfway up the mountainside, bowed his head and ordered: "You lead Brother Yitun around to the north side of the enemy camp, and use horses to raise dust in the forest to attract the enemy's ideas." When you succeed, I will attack the camp from the south, kill the enemy through the west, and after you attract the enemy, you will go to the west gate to join a certain one, take advantage of the chaos in his camp, and then kill him through the north gate, and kill his camp in a big mess...... Remember to let the brethren save their horsepower, this is a battle of life and death, and it is not trivial. ”

The deputy of his cronies promised, Xu Huang patted him on the shoulder, and walked down the foot of the mountain together.

In the large camp, Xu Huang gathered 500 soldiers, stood among them, and said loudly: "Brother Pao Ze, at noon today, Captain Yan's headquarters has been defeated by the enemy in the north. The heavy responsibility left by the envoy is now only on us. Later, I will lead you to storm the camp at the head of the river, and no one will be left behind, follow my banner, and no one will be left behind. ”

The most important thing for the cavalry to charge is mobility and flexibility, as long as the forward is not hindered, the horse's hooves will not stop charging.

Looking at the faces of the five hundred young Liangzhou men around him, Xu Huang took a deep breath, he couldn't give them the promise of coming back alive, and even his own life could not be guaranteed. As the so-called troubled times are not up to people, in this place of Liangzhou, the order of the envoy is an iron law, even if their three teams of 500 people go out of the city to attack and beg for death, they must go.

This is a military order, this is a fate!

Xu Huang made a gesture, and his cronies' deputy picked out a sergeant who dragged the horse and carried the weapon and left, and Xu Huang also took most of the sergeants to start preparing.

……

Smoke rose from the camp at the head of the river, and it was a calm afternoon for them. The cavalry on the grassland in the north had already routed the small group of cavalry, almost completely annihilated, and the horse scouts returned to the thousand-man team to chase straight to the bottom of the county town of Ji before letting the cavalry flee into the city, and the rest were only dozens of horses.

This kind of good news excited the whole army, and it immediately spread throughout the camp. They seemed to see the hope of capturing Hanyang.

However, Song Jian was also worried, according to the past rules, it should have been a few days since the troops escorting grain and grass arrived in Zhutu Mountain, but there was no news on the road, which made Song Jian's heart faintly uneasy.

But this did not dilute his joy at destroying the horses and horses that were put outside, the soldiers were impermanent, this army may now be ordered to investigate, but if he is given the opportunity, it may be stealing camps, robbing grain, and doing anything.

Suddenly, there was a horn sound from the north of the camp, which really startled Song Jian, and he hurriedly ran out of the camp tent to ask his subordinates what was going on, and suddenly the whole battalion was extremely nervous about preparing for war.

"Your Majesty, it's safe, it's just an enemy scout." The general guarding the north camp gate came galloping and said to Song Jian: "My subordinates sent more than 100 cavalry soldiers to pursue, and the enemy army panicked and ran towards the west. ”

Only then did Song Jian stop his armor and replied with a frown: "This is not enough, how can the scouts let the enemy army get close to the gate of my own camp?" Spill Scouts! ”

With the order of the general, the scouts of each battalion rushed out of the camp one after another, but the vigilance in the camp was also reduced to the extreme with their departure, and the soldiers left their horses and armors, and squatted in front of the pot with rice bowls to eat.

The sergeant in the battalion did not know that when several scouts from the south galloped out of the camp and touched the forest to investigate the enemy's situation, a few soft bowstrings almost simultaneously cleared the scouts at the head of the river. Then, deep in the dense forest, the Han army with horses and troops came out one after another, and gathered next to a British Wuhan general.

"Get on the horse, everyone follow the Chinese character banner behind me and don't fall behind, you don't have to pursue killing the enemy when you enter the camp, just throw the torch on their tent." Xu Huang turned over and got on his horse, the soldiers behind him held torches and wooden spears, and finally glanced at the robe behind him, Xu Huang pointed to the camp five miles away and waved his hand: "That's the camp of the warriors at the head of the river...... Let's burn it! ”

Before the words fell, Xu Huang had already galloped forward, and more than 400 horsemen roared on the road, like a sharp dagger straight into the camp at the head of the river.

At the foot of Zhutu Mountain, a camp robbery battle with a huge difference between the enemy and me started unexpectedly!

When the guards of the large camp at the head of the river were caught off guard, Xu Huang rushed to the camp a hundred steps ahead, and the guards who were caught off guard remembered to close the camp gate, but there was still time there? Xu Huang was wielding a long-handled ring knife, and at the moment when they hesitated, they had already rushed to the door, and the guards hurriedly held spears to block it. Where is Xu Huang, who is coming from the galloping horse with a long knife, can be stopped by the gatekeeper, and in a flash of cold light, three broken spears fall to the ground, and the horses crash into the camp regardless of it, and then more than 400 Han cavalry stepped in.

Xu Huang was followed by his cronies, who were strong men among the Han cavalry, raising the banner of Chinese characters high, following the main general in the camp to rush west and east, killing those hastily defending Heshou soldiers on their backs.

The cavalry behind him obeyed General Xu Huang's orders, and did not pursue the enemy at all, but just threw the torches in their hands to the tents in the camp.

Under the shadow of the sword and sword, the entire Heshou camp was in a mess, and the sergeants in the north hurriedly threw away their jobs and stepped on their horses to rush to the south, but the Heshou troops in the south were chased by Xu Huang and fled to the north, and their own people almost collided with their own people and turned over on their backs, not to mention that these Heshou sergeants didn't even have time to put on their armor, and all of a sudden wailing, neighing, angry shouts, and slashing sounded throughout the camp.

Song Jianzheng and the generals discussed in the tent how to enter Ji County when Xixian broke the city, and suddenly heard that there was a big chaos in the camp, and hurriedly beckoned the generals to come out of the tent to see the situation.

His hand had already touched the tent curtain, and when he heard the sound of horses' hooves outside, his heart moved and hurriedly retracted his hand, and a general behind him leaned out of the tent, half of his body was still in the tent, Song Jian saw the tent suddenly poke into a one-foot blade of a ring knife, stabbed along the big tent, and slashed straight across half of the general's body, and instantly tore the tent a one-zhang long opening.

Suddenly pushing away the corpse of the general under his command, Song Jian stepped out of the tent, and saw a Han cavalry general rampage in the camp with a long-handled big ring knife, and there was no general in front of his horse, invincible. Then hundreds of Han cavalry set fire to the camp, burned and looted. The generals of the various divisions were in their own tents, and the camp could not stop an effective defense, and thousands of troops became stragglers in the camp, scurrying around the camp like headless flies.

Seeing the Han cavalry rushing towards the military tent, Song Jian hurriedly rushed back to the tent, and shouted and scolded the cronies and generals beside him: "Get out and organize the sergeants to meet the enemy!" Kill them all! ”

Xu Huang ran in the camp for a long time, the armored horses were dyed blood, seeing that the loose enemy army was gradually gathered by the generals, and began to resist in an organized way to know that he could not stay for a long time, hurriedly reined in the horse and looked back, and followed his robes were all killed into a gourd, but it seemed that there was not much loss of manpower, seeing that the handsome tent was still standing, the galloping horse went over and picked up the brazier outside the tent and buckled it upside down on the top of the tent, and then the galloping horse shouted: "Follow me!" ”

A group of hussars and horses rushed along the exit of the camp to the west, and the pursuers behind each shouted and ran, and the generals shouted: "Don't let the enemy go!" ”

"Death to those who stand in my way!"

Xu Huang slashed the oncoming horse from the horse with a knife, stepped on the back of the horse and changed his mount in the air, turned the horse's head and continued to rush forward, and the skilled sergeants behind him also did the same, abandoning the tired horses to snatch the enemy's physical horses, and running out of the camp with Xu Huang all the way.

As soon as he got out of the west gate, Xu Huang took the lead in the north, and was facing the more than 30 cavalry that had fled to attract ideas, and a torrent of iron cavalry swept down, and before the enemy troops who were chasing the scouts could react, they saw hundreds of Han cavalry rushing out of their own camp, and then they were trampled by the hooves of the cavalry, and they were killed and wounded.

Several generals at the head of the river led their troops out of the camp to pursue, but saw that the Han cavalry did not flee to the south, but instead circled around the camp at the head of the river, and for a while they could not understand the enemy's thoughts.

Then they saw the most courageous charge they had ever seen.

Xu Huang once again led more than 300 horsemen from the north gate to attack the Heshou battalion that was counting casualties!
