Chapter 560: Attack on the Camp

In the night, a group of volunteers quietly stepped on the snow and marched in the direction of the Jin army camp.

In order to prevent being discovered by the scouts of the Jin army as much as possible, only the leader of these volunteers held a torch so that the soldiers of their own team could confirm the direction.

What's more, there are scouts from the righteous master side around who are secretly watching, monitoring every move around them.

But even so, there was still a small group of Jin army scouts who noticed the movement of this righteous division, and they quickly retreated to the Jin army camp and reported it layer by layer, and finally reported it to Li Meng, the governor of Henan.

"Report! Half an hour ago, about ten miles away from our military camp, there was a suspected presence of rebels. ”

After getting the news, Li Meng didn't dare to take it lightly.

Because of the relationship between the distribution of the camp and the number of troops under his command, after Zhao Yu's three hundred brigade wolves went to Kaifeng County, the Henan army under his command had to shoulder the main responsibility of monitoring the movements of the rebels.

After all, once his camp was attacked by a sneak attack, the Yingchuan military camp area and the Taiyuan military camp area in the rear would be affected, which made Li Meng have to be cautious.

"Suspected of rebels? Why don't you double-check? ”

After receiving the vague report from the scouts in the army, Li Meng asked unhappily.

I believe that not only him, but also any general who wants to command the army will not be happy to receive such a vague report.

After all, since the rebels launched a counterattack, his scouts and patrol guards have been repeatedly attacked by the rebels, and the scouts dare not approach the rebels, which is understandable.

So, should the soldiers in the battalion be ordered to take precautions because of this vague report?

Li Meng frowned and pondered in the tent.

In the end, he still ordered to the left and right: "Immediately send an order to Liu Ci and Huang Yue, and order the two of them to wake up the soldiers under their command and lie in the tent according to the original plan." ”

"Yes!" Left and right clenched fists and left.

Looking at their departing backs, Li Meng secretly estimated.

According to his prior arrangement, Liu Ci and Huang Yue's second generals under his command can arrange at least 15,000 soldiers to wait in the camp, although these troops are not all the Henan troops in his camp, but Li Meng feels that he should be able to resist the sneak attack of the rebels in a short time, and there is no need to order all the 30,000 Henan troops - the ambush set by Liu Ci and Huang Yue is enough to hold out until the soldiers of his entire battalion react.

At the same time, on the snow-covered sand dunes about four or five miles away on the southwest side of the Jin army joint camp, Zhao Yin was staring intently at the Jin army camp in the distance.

Just as he was peeking at the situation of the Jin Army's joint camp from a distance, Chu Xiao, the guard standing beside him, seemed to have discovered something, and reminded in a rare serious tone: "Childe, it seems that our scouts have come." ”

Before the words fell, I saw that under the vigilance of more than a dozen guards, several nomenclature scouts hurriedly came to Zhao Yin, clasped their fists and said: "Qi Bohu Gongzi, General Xiang has led the army to the Jin camp according to the original plan, and it is scheduled to launch a sneak attack on the Henan military camp area around two o'clock in the hour......

"Hmm."

Zhao Yin nodded slightly, turned his head to look in the direction of the Jin camp, but did not see any trace of Xiang Xuan's army, thinking that Xiang Xuan had ordered the soldiers to extinguish the torches at this moment.

A moment later, two more groups of scouts came to report, indicating that Zhou Gong, Zhu Yu and other righteous generals had led their troops to arrive at the predetermined position.

Rao is Zhao Yin, and he couldn't help but exhale at this moment, muttering: "Success or failure is ...... in one fell swoop."

From the side, the head of the guard, Chu Xiao, looked at the Jin army camp in the distance, and said in a low voice: "I see that the Jin camp has no changes, is it necessary for the son to be so cautious?" ”

Zhao Yin shook his head and said, "The Jin camp just doesn't seem to have changed on the surface. …… Then Xue Ao knew that my righteous master had given up retaking Kaifeng and Kao County, in this case, he knew that my righteous master only had a breakthrough strategy of sneaking up on his camp, so how could he not deal with it as soon as possible? …… If it weren't for the weather, I'd guess Limon would have set up an ambush outside the camp, and now he was just setting up an ambush inside the camp. ”

"Oh."

Chu Xiao nodded suddenly.

At this time, Xiang Xuan, the general of the righteous division, had already led thousands of troops to lurk about three miles outside the Jin army's joint camp.

It has to be said that this distance is already very easy to expose.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation in the distance.

"Rebels!"

"Rebel Scout!"

After an exclamation, there was a sound of fighting in the distance, it was the scout team in Xiang Xuan's army who was the forerunner and the Jin army's patrol team was fighting.

"Sure enough, the closer you get to the Jin camp, the denser the Jin army's patrol becomes, and if you continue like this......

Frowning slightly, Xiang Xuan decisively gave an order: "The whole army raids the camp!" ”

Under his order, thousands of soldiers immediately rushed in the direction of the Jin camp.

Along the way, they encountered scouts from both sides who were still fighting each other, and the patrol guards of the Jin army were shocked to find that what they were facing was not a small group of rebel scouts as they thought, but a large-scale sneak attack by the rebels.

For a time, on the snow about two miles deep in the south of the Henan military camp area, for a while, this Jin army patrol fled in all directions.

However, while fleeing, these soldiers still issued an early warning in the direction of the camp.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

"The rebels are attacking the camp! The rebels are attacking the camp! ”

In the face of these Jin army patrols who were sending early warnings to the Jin camp, Xiang Xuan decisively gave an order: "If you don't have time to ignore them, immediately launch an offensive against the Jin camp!" ”

And at the same time as he gave the order, at the south gate of the Jin camp, the Jin soldiers on duty had heard the warning sound of the patrol guards outside the camp, and immediately sounded the sound of the warning cymbal.

"Dingding-ding-"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

"Dingding-ding-"

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! ”

However, it seems that the Henan soldiers in the camp did not have time to react, and before the soldiers of the Henan army could support Yuanmen, Zou Yuan, the general under Xiang Xuan, had taken the lead in taking his soldiers to assault outside the Jin army camp, and ordered the soldiers to erect the siege ladder brought by the army on the fence of the Jin camp.

"Attack it! Take the camp gate! ”

Zou Yuan shouted.

At the same time, an order from the general of the Henan Army also came from the battalion: "Release the arrow!" Shoot the arrows! ”

With this order, I saw that on the few arrow towers in the Jin army camp, many crossbowmen began to shoot arrows outside the camp, trying to stop the momentum of the rebels attacking the camp, but unfortunately, their numbers were so small that the few righteous soldiers outside the camp did not even notice them.

Even if a few righteous soldiers occasionally fell to the ground with an arrow, they did not attract the attention of others. Number One

Soon, several soldiers and soldiers climbed into the camp with the help of the siege ladder, but were soon killed by the guards in the camp.

However, it is a pity that the sacrifice of these few nominal soldiers did not affect the offensive of the remaining thousands of nominal soldiers and soldiers, and in just a few blinks of an eye, hundreds of nominal soldiers quickly crossed the barracks before and after and occupied a certain space in the camp.

"Kill all the rebels!"

"Repel them and take the camp gates!"

Under the orders of the generals of both sides, the soldiers of both sides launched a fierce battle.

For a time, the camp was full of swords and swords, and sparks splashed everywhere.

Soon, the Henan soldiers guarding the camp gate could not support it, because they had no reinforcements, although there were sporadic soldiers rushing to reinforce, but most of the soldiers seemed to be still asleep, not realizing that the camp was being attacked.

The delay in the arrival of reinforcements made these Henan soldiers on duty at the camp gate defeated and retreated by the righteous soldiers, and even the camp gate was lost.

"Rumbleβ€”"

With a loud noise, the soldiers who had killed the defenders opened the camp gate.

Seeing this, the righteous soldiers outside the camp poured into the camp like a tide.

"Go and tell the captain!"

"Go and tell the captain!"

The surviving Henan soldiers fought and retreated, exclaiming and sending someone to report to Captain Li Meng.

However, at this time, Li Meng, the governor of Henan, was standing outside his camp tent, calmly looking at the direction of the camp gate on the south side where there was a loud shout of killing.

"Report!"

After a burst of chanting, several heralds hurriedly came to Li Meng, clasped their fists and said: "Captain, our army's camp has been attacked by the rebels, and the rebels have captured the camp gate......

However, Leemon's expression was still very calm, because these losses so far were within his expectations, and he had already laid an ambush in the camp with at least fifteen thousand soldiers, and as soon as the rebels entered the hinterland of his camp, the ambush he had set up would immediately kill and hold back all the invading rebels.

Because of this, he did not panic at all.

As he expected, after breaking through the camp gate, the thousands of rebels under Xiang Xuan's command immediately attacked the hinterland of the Henan military camp like a tide.

At this moment, I believe that most of the righteous soldiers thought that the Jin soldiers in the camp were still sleeping in the camp tent, but when they rushed into a military tent and prepared to attack those Jin soldiers who were still asleep, they were shocked to find that there were dozens of pairs of vicious eyes staring at their group of uninvited guests in the military tent.

What frightened them was that the owner of these dozens of pairs of eyes was a well-dressed Jin army, and these people didn't look like they had just been woken up from their deep sleep.

"Kill β€”β€”!"

With a roaring roar, several nominal soldiers crawled out of the tent one after another, and the poor two nominal soldiers who fell to the last were cut down by random knives as soon as they turned around and wanted to escape, and fell to the ground with a pop, and the red blood immediately stained the ground.

And in an instant, the Henan sergeant in the tent stepped over the two corpses and killed.

Similar scenes occurred frequently, and the righteous soldiers who originally wanted to kill them all while the Jin soldiers were asleep were caught off guard by the Henan soldiers who were ambushed in the tents.

For a while, the camp became more and more chaotic.

"There is an ambush! There is an ambush in the Jin army! ”

"Kill all these rebels!"

The soldiers on both sides shouted and roared, and slaughtered with weapons in hand.

Since Li Meng set up at least 15,000 ambushes in the camp, this caused the righteous division to fall to the scales of the righteous division after attacking the camp, and once again tilted towards the Jin army.

What's worse is that because the righteous division did not pay attention to the formation when attacking the Jin camp, several small-scale forces were relatively scattered, which led to the sudden killing of the ambush set by Li Meng, both the Jin army and these small groups of righteous divisions had to fight separately, but the key is that the number of ambushes of the Jin army far exceeded that of the righteous division.

"Did you set up an ambush in the camp?"

From a distance, Xiang Xuan, the general of the righteous division, saw the chaos in the depths of the camp in front of him, and frowned slightly.

He immediately ordered: "The soldiers of my righteous division obey the command and assemble to me!" ”

Under Xiang Xuan's order, several small forces not far from the neighborhood quickly assembled towards his position, so that Xiang Xuan quickly gathered two or three thousand troops.

Immediately, Xiang Xuan commanded these soldiers to fight and retreat.

Seeing this scene from afar, Liu Ci, a general under Li Meng, sneered: "Do you want to leave when you come?" Leave it all for me! ”

With that, he raised his sword and ordered: "Hugh will spare any of the rebels!" …… Kill! ”

"Kill!"

Under his command and encouragement, the Jin army seemed to be killing the righteous teachers in a steady stream.

Due to the absolute disadvantage in numbers, Xiang Xuan had to be forced to withdraw from the camp.

But even so, Liu Ci, Huang Yue and other generals of the Henan Army still did not give up, leading the corporal to bite Xiang Xuan's army.

No one noticed that at the juncture where the Jin army seemed to be in full swing, there were so many Jin troops, ignoring the orders issued by Liu Ci, Huang Yue and other generals, and quickly rushed into the depths of the camp.

Or one of the captains noticed one of the teams and scolded suspiciously, "Why don't you go after the rebels?" ”

The captain who was questioned was reluctant and explained vaguely, until the chief approached, but when he saw that his face suddenly changed, he suddenly raised his sword and pierced the body of the chief with the sharp blade in his hand.

"You ......"

The uncle's eyes widened in astonishment, and he looked at the soldier in front of him wearing his Henan County army armor with an incredulous expression, and then a few hints of surprise flashed in his eyes: "You are ...... Rebel ......"

"You guessed it!"

The captain sneered, drew his blade sharply, and sent the captain to the ground.

In the light of the fire near here, it was faintly visible that this team leader was Xiang Xuan's nephew, Xiang Ji.

"Quick! Set fire to the tents in the camp, and the others will come with me!" ”

"Yes!"

Several groups of Jin troops from the side shouted loudly.
