Chapter 561: Attack on the Camp (2)
"PS: Uh, I'm sorry for the pigeon last night, my daughter-in-law and children were sleepy after I came home last night, and the family slept without dinner, and she didn't call me, so I slept until the early hours of this morning...... Ahem, I'm sorry, but I'll be back to normal updates in the evening.'"

"Report! Our soldiers successfully ambushed the rebels who attacked the camp, causing the rebels to collapse, and at present, Liu Xi and Liu Shiyi are leading the army to pursue the rebels who are trying to break and flee. β
Outside the tent of the Chinese army in the Henan military barracks, the heralds who came to make a report respectfully reported the situation in the current camp to Li Meng, the commander of Henan.
After listening to the report, Li Meng secretly sneered: "Just a rebel, don't measure yourself!" β¦β¦ He thinks I don't know what he wants? β
After sneering, he turned his head to look in the direction of the north side, and secretly thought in his heart: I don't know if General Xue and Zhou Duwei have noticed it at this time.
Because according to the previous agreement, as long as Li Meng's camp is attacked, Xue Ao and Zhao Yu will lead their respective soldiers to outflank them from both sides of the camp in a roundabout way to cut off the rebels' retreat.
Thinking of this, Li Meng said in a deep voice to the herald in front of him: "You go back and inform Liu Ci and tell him to be sure to ......."
Before he could finish his words, he saw a guard beside him pointing to the distance and exclaiming, "Captain, look! β
"What?"
Looking in the direction of the guard's finger, Li Meng realized that a fire had broken out on the west side of his camp at some point.
Obviously, it must have been the rebels who set the tent on fire.
Immediately, Li Meng asked the herald with a straight face: "Didn't you say that Liu Ci had expelled the rebels from the camp?" β
"This ......"
The herald's face was full of consternation, and he said in fear: "I don't know, little one. β
At this time, there may be a guard next to Li Meng who whispered: "I'm afraid that the rebels are slipping through the net and causing chaos in our military camp." β
Li Meng responded with a calm face, and immediately ordered: "Tell Xu Ling to immediately lead his troops to encircle and suppress the fish that have slipped through the net!" β
The Xu Ling in his mouth is the history of his subordinates.
Soon, Xu Ling received Li Meng's order to recruit about five or six hundred soldiers in the camp in the name of Wei Shi and went straight to the west side of the camp.
However, when Xu Ling came here to take a look, he was stunned, because he saw that beside the countless burning tents, the soldiers of his Henan army were actually attacking each other.
"What about the rebels? Why are our soldiers killing each other?'
When he was surprised, he hurriedly ordered the soldiers under his command: "Hurry! Stop them! β
After giving the order, he personally came to the two groups of soldiers who were attacking each other, and shouted, "Stop! Stop! β¦β¦ I am Shi Xu Ling, the lieutenant of Henan Governor Li Meng, all the Henan soldiers here, I order you to stop immediately! Stop now! β¦β¦ Violators of the order will be severely punished by military law! β
Under Xu Ling's drinking, the two Henan soldiers who were killing each other finally stopped, but their next words of mutual accusation made Xu Ling's face change suddenly.
"Wei Shi, these people are pretending to be rebels! It was they who took advantage of the chaos to set fire to the camp and killed many of our brothers. β
"Fuck you! Xu Wei Shimo is going to be deceived by these damn rebels, they are the rebels, they are the ones who took advantage of the chaos to set fire to the camp and kill people. β
"What?"
Looking at the two groups of soldiers who accused each other and scolded each other, Xu Ling's face suddenly became extremely ugly.
He immediately reacted that there must be rebels wearing the armor of his Henan army and making waves in the camp.
However, which side is the soldier of his Henan army?
"Shut up! Shut up! β
After shouting angrily, Xu Ling questioned the soldiers on both sides and said, "You wait to report your subordinate tribe immediately!" β
Hearing Xu Ling's questioning, the two groups of soldiers who were still guarding each other and insulting each other reported their subordinates one after another.
"We are Liu He's soldiers under Liu Bochang......
"Liu He's soldiers are right?! We are the soldiers of Kong An and Kong Quhou...... I'll wait for Kong Quhou to come, I'll see how you explain! β
"You did it first!"
"Fuck you! Obviously, you did it first. β
Looking at the messy situation in front of him, Xu Ling scolded angrily again and again, and his voice was a little hoarse, which stopped the soldiers on both sides from insulting each other.
He carefully interrogated the soldiers on both sides, and then came to the conclusion: these two groups of soldiers are actually fucking soldiers of his Henan army!
At least Xu Ling had an impression in his heart of the 'Uncle Liu He', 'Quhou Kong'an' and others they reported.
And this question arises, since the two groups of soldiers who attack each other here and here are his Henan army, what about the rebels?
Just when he was suspicious, he suddenly saw a soldier beside him pointing to the way he came and shouting: "Wei Shi, look at the middle camp!" β
"What?"
Xu Ling turned his head to take a look, only to find that there was actually a little fire in the middle camp of his Henan military camp area.
"Not good!"
With a secret feeling in his heart, he immediately realized that he had probably passed by the real rebels.
Thinking of this, he immediately ordered a guard with a stern expression: "Quick, go and tell Captain Li that there are rebels pretending to be our sergeants and deliberately disrupting our battalion!" Just go! β
"Yes!" The guard hurriedly turned around and ran in the direction of the middle camp.
Glancing at the back of the departing guard, Xu Ling shouted loudly again: "Here all the Henan soldiers listen to the order, I am the captain Shi Xu Ling, from this moment on, you and everyone listen to my orders!" β¦β¦ I now order you to put out the fire immediately, put out the fire immediately! β
Under the command of Xu Ling, the Henan soldiers who were originally scattered here were quickly organized to participate in the important task of fighting the fire, and Xu Ling himself did not dare to delay, and immediately led the hundreds of soldiers he brought and went straight to the middle camp.
"I hope Captain Li is safe and sound......
On the way to the aid of the middle camp, Xu Ling thought secretly.
At the same time, near the middle camp in the Henan military barracks, Li Meng listened to the reports of several soldiers with a grim face: "Captain, the big thing is not good, there are rebellious soldiers in the camp for some reason, and they are killing people and setting ......fire to the camp."
There were rebellious soldiers in the Henan Army under his command?
Are you kidding?!
Li Meng didn't believe it at first, until he saw with his own eyes that one of his Henan army soldiers unceremoniously killed the soldiers of the same army.
Could it really be that a group of soldiers under his command rebelled?
This idea had just been born in Li Meng's mind, and he immediately rejected it.
Also, as the lieutenant of Henan, even if Li Meng may not be able to remember the appearance of every soldier under his command, he can at least grasp the morale of the army, and it is absolutely impossible to allow the 'rebellion of individual soldiers' to spread arbitrarily in the army, let alone sit back and watch the rebellion of the real soldiers, after all, this is his serious dereliction of duty as a lieutenant.
"It's the rebels! It was the rebels who wore the armor of our army and blended into the camp! β
After pondering for a while, Li Meng immediately guessed the truth.
Now that the truth has been guessed, the solution is not difficult, just to find out the enemy mixed with his Henan army.
But as the saying goes, it is easier said than done, seeing that the middle camp is on fire everywhere, countless soldiers of the Henan army who don't know whether it is him are running back and forth in panic, how can Li Meng have time to distinguish which ones are his Henan soldiers and which ones are fake by the enemy.
Ignoring the obstruction of the guards from the side, he shouted at the nearby soldiers who were in chaos: "All the Henan County soldiers listen to the order, I am the commander Li Meng, give me calm quickly!" β¦β¦ Although there are rebels who pretend to be our soldiers and blend into the camp, their number is definitely not large, so don't mess up your own position, so that the rebels can take advantage of it! β¦β¦ Pass on my order, and the generals of all uncles and commanders will immediately assemble their soldiers to distinguish between us and the enemy, and they must no longer let the soldiers run around in the camp! β¦β¦ If a soldier does not obey the order, he will be killed immediately with military discipline! β
I have to say that as the governor of Henan, Li Meng's response was still very fast, but unfortunately in this chaotic situation, his orders really could not be quickly spread to the ears of every Henan sergeant, and the disadvantage was that it seemed that Zou Yuan, Xiang Ji, Zhou Zhong and other generals under Xiang Xuan, in order to hinder the Henan army at this time, killed people everywhere in the camp and set fires, further creating chaos.
These cunning guys, while attacking a plate of scattered Henan soldiers, shouted in their mouths, insisting that they were the first to be attacked, which seriously hindered the judgment of all Henan soldiers in the battalion.
Some of the Henan soldiers recognized the 'spies' of Zou Yuan, Xiang Ji, and Zhou Zhong, but some of the Henan soldiers were deceived by the fake friendly soldiers, so that they accompanied these rebel spies and launched an attack on the real friendly troops, which led to the situation in the camp becoming more and more chaotic, and the vast majority of the fighting, almost all of which were killed by the Henan army.
Seeing this, the guards around Li Meng tried to take him to safety.
"Captain, it's dangerous at the moment, please evacuate quickly!"
However, Li Meng pushed the guards who tried to pull him away, still shouting orders at the top of his voice.
While shouting orders, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart: When did these rebel soldiers who pretended to be his Henan army sneak into the camp?
After frowning and thinking for a moment, a flash of realization suddenly flashed in Li Meng's mind - those rebel soldiers who pretended to be his Henan army were probably mixed in with the soldiers under Xiang Xuan's command.
But the question is, the rebels came from his camp at night, why did they specially prepare such a group of soldiers? Aren't the rebels afraid of 'fratricidal killing'?
Or was the rebel sure that his two groups of sergeants would not fight?
If so, that means......
γβ¦β¦ The rebels expected me to set up an ambush in the camp? Not good!'
Li Meng's face was a little surprised, and he looked uneasily in the direction of the southern suburbs outside the camp.
In his opinion, since the rebels on the opposite side had expected him to set up an ambush in the camp, then at this moment, his subordinate Liu Ci pursued Xiang Xuan out of the camp, and it was very likely that he would be ambushed by the rebels.
It turned out that Li Meng's guess was quite prepared, and when the Jin general Liu Xi pursued Xiang Xuan all the way to the outside of the camp, he was indeed attacked by the rebel general Zhou Gong.
At this time, Xiang Xuan also seized the opportunity, raised his arms and greeted, and led the soldiers to fight reflexively.
There was Xiang Xuan in front and Zhou Gong on the side, Liu Ci was attacked on his back and back, and at night, his vision was limited, Liu Ci could not judge the number of rebels at all, so that in a panic, he had to say that he tried to retreat into the camp.
There was a mess inside the camp and a mess outside the camp, and it was clear that Li Meng had calculated that the rebels would come to sneak attack, but he was still in a mess, and both sides could not take care of both inside and outside the camp.
And at this moment, a new force suddenly arrived.
"I am Zhou Hu, the captain of Yingchuan, but all the Henan army will throw weapons at me, and those who do not comply will be punished as anti-army!"
"Captain Zhou has an order, but all the Henan army will drop their weapons, and those who do not comply will be punished as anti-army!"
"Captain Zhou has an order, but all the Henan army will drop their weapons, and those who do not comply will be punished as anti-army!"
Just when the situation of the Henan army became extremely unstable, Zhao Yu finally led the Yingchuan army under his command to kill.
