At four watches in the early morning of the next day, three thousand Danyang elite soldiers quietly touched the foot of the mountain and prepared to climb the mountain to attack the camp.

The mountain is not a very high peak, compared with the Yishui River in the north, the drop is only more than 100 meters, and the slope is quite gentle.

She Mountain is about fifty miles away from Yiling County, Yishui has left two places from west to east, detoured to the north in the west of Sheshan Mountain, and turned back to the south near Yiling County.

Guan Yujun's camp was located in the bend where Yishui turned north, and it was almost more than 30 miles away from Sheshan and Yiling.

Zhang Xian, Jin Xuan and Guan Yu have been fighting so far, and both sides are also well aware that everyone only has infantry and no cavalry, so they are not very wary of night raids and raids on the camp - the infantry marches with baggage and conventional, and it is only fifty or sixty miles a day. If you run more than 30 miles at night, and climb a mountain, your physical strength is basically exhausted, and you still have a fart fight?

Let's just say that Zhang Xianjun himself, in order to attack Guan Yu's camp early in the morning, they set off at dawn and walked more than 30 miles to Guan Yu's camp, and it was basically the end of the hour when they arrived there. The battle was fought for two hours, and at noon, he retreated in the afternoon to eat a little, and hurried back so many ways. It was only at dusk that they returned to the camp, and everyone was asleep.

After fighting in a battle for two hours in one day and walking 70 miles back and forth, with the nutritional status and oil and water reserves of the people of the Han Dynasty, they would have fallen long ago. Except for the day when they first arrived, they were treated by the labor army and had a little bit of meat, but they had no meat to eat at all, and they had no meat to eat after the battle.

However, Zhang Xian's prediction was obviously wrong. Guan Yu's ability to control and dispatch troops has exceeded his imagination.

Guan Yu's troops did not come to the camp on foot, but first walked thirty miles by boat, and then landed on the side of the mountain when there were only five or six miles left.

The rowers were mainly captured today, and none of them were armed, and a small number of elite soldiers were guarded to ensure that they would not make small moves, so as to ensure the physical strength of the combat troops to the greatest extent.

The soldiers of the 3,000 robbery battalion all began to sleep in the afternoon and woke up naturally in the middle of the night.

Of course, all this is also thanks to Dong and Dong County's order, which provided the army with the logistics of collecting grain on the spot (a week ago, he was still a county commander, because he had been promoted to a county order because of his meritorious work in raising military rations).

Dong He mobilized the people of several surrounding counties to serve pot pulp to welcome the king and provide rice, vegetables, wine and meat in full, which was very good. Even Zhang Xian's troops came from afar, and they couldn't guarantee such adequate food. In contrast, just looking at the supply of military rations, it seems that Guan Yu has become the side fighting at home.

"Xingba, you bring five hundred axes and shields as the vanguard? Advancing one after another? Do not raise fires. When you get outside the camp, do you feel the way into the camp? Although the slash in the dark is? Distinguish friend from foe by accent.

I'm with Youping, leading the main force to arrive when the small half of the incense sticks are behind? Raise the fire and march forward. Must take care of the soldiers, and when the time comes, take off their robes, revealing the white cloth shawl inside? so as not to injure yourself. ”

Guan Yu took care of it in the end? Only then did Gan Ning, who was holding a knife, leave.

Gan Ning can successfully rob the Wei camp with a hundred horses, but he may not be able to lead thousands of horsemen to successfully rob the Wei camp. Because the success or failure of the camp is not only based on the number of people, but also on the tactics and friend and foe identification system that wants to cooperate with the number of people.

When the raiders are only a few tenths of the defenders, or even a few hundredths of them? What is the biggest advantage for the attacker? It is that you can blend in with the enemy army in the dark and take advantage of the chaos. They don't even have to hit torches, they cut down when they see people, and anyway, they must have cut down the enemy, because there are so many more enemies than their own people.

And the defenders didn't dare to fight back indiscriminately? Even if they counterattacked, they would kill many more of their own people than the enemy.

Like a drop of water falling into a pan of oil? Of course, it will be splashed with countless oils, but more often than not, it will be the oil splashes themselves.

Guan Yu asked Gan Ning to bring five hundred of the most elite axe and shield soldiers first? The picture is to "take advantage of the initial raid period when you don't need to consider the identification of friend or foe to completely disrupt the enemy army", and then let the large forces that have to consider the identification of friend and foe press in an orderly manner.

Not many soldiers? But do you need the cooperation of several generals who know how to fight? Others can't copy it if they want to.

A change of scene? Where to deploy Guan Yu, Zhou Tai and Gan Ning for a 3,000-strong raiding force at the same time.

……

"Crunch-click-" There was a tooth-aching grinding sound, but it was not loud, followed by the sound of a horse rejection and the collapse of a stake.

Gan Ning personally wielded the rope wrapped around the flail to scratch the hook, violently pulled over a rejection horse, and then freed one hand, took off the saber in his mouth, cut the rope, and jumped into the camp.

Five hundred axes and shield soldiers rushed in like mercury, and many of them were not experiencing this kind of scene for the first time, but they were very experienced—

Because they also participated in the battle of Zhang Fei's night attack on Dingjun Mountain two years ago. In that battle, Zhang Fei beheaded Yang Bai and captured Dingjun Mountain Dazhai overnight.

This is the advantage of the troops going south and north to experience a hundred battles, and those who survive are the elites who lick the blood with knives, and in their eyes, this mountainous area in Xiangxi is too easy to climb up compared with Dingjun Mountain.

"Puff-p-p-" The knife and axe flew over, and Gan Ning and the soldiers didn't even shout to kill, so they slashed and slashed.

All of a sudden, the battlefield took on an unprecedentedly strange atmosphere: the shouts of humans gradually intensified, but among them were only the screams of the killed and the defenders, but there was no roar and courage of the attackers, which made people's hearts feel like they were fighting ghosts.

Many of the soldiers of the Jingnan Coalition Army even had a nervous breakdown, and in a panic, they cut down people at random, but these deranged madmen could not do much damage, because they would soon be killed by their own people as camp robbers.

This is the essence of hundreds of people robbing tens of thousands of people!

However, the Jingnan coalition army also quickly realized the problem.

Zhang Xian's Chinese army's big tent was still very tightly defended, and there were chariots connected from end to end like a city wall, and foreign soldiers could not penetrate it. Therefore, when Zhang Xianju held the fire high to observe the enemy's situation, he found several camps with serious chaos and killing, so he ruthlessly came up with a vicious plan.

He knew that if he continued to mess up, he would only make the enemy take advantage of it in vain, and he had to make a decision immediately!

"The crossbowmen of the inner camp are arrayed! All of them are shot in a melee between the left and right battalions of the 3rd and 1st battalions on the right! The enemy troops who robbed the camp infiltrated from those battalions and shot at me regardless of whether they were friends or enemies! ”

In just a few minutes, all the crossbowmen in the inner battalion were ready to stop and began to shoot ruthlessly, regardless of the countless people of their own in the melee area.

But in this way, the advantage of the individual elite of the axe and shield soldiers of Gan Ning's department could not be brought into play at all, everyone was being shot intensively by bows and crossbows, and no one could escape without eyes for arrows. Zhang Xian was willing to shoot five or six of his own people before taking away the price of a Danyang axe shield soldier, then he could kill all of Gan Ning's five hundred strong men by killing three thousand of his own people at most.

What's more, as the battle deepened and all the torches in the camp were lit, the defending commanders quickly discovered the technical characteristics of the raiding troops: they were all made with round shields and steel battle axes! Their weapons are also an important factor in distinguishing friend from foe!

In this way, the tactics of infiltrating the enemy and luring the enemy to kill each other have come to an end.

Gan Ning fought bloodily, and had already taken advantage of the chaos to slash more than 30 people, and he was also scratched in two places on his arm. He estimated that at this moment, his five hundred axe and shield elite soldiers were estimated to have been killed and wounded by nearly a hundred.

As for how many enemies were killed, it is estimated that only three or four hundred people were killed and wounded by these axe and shield soldiers themselves. The real big head is the casualties caused by the cannibalism of the Jingnan coalition army just now and the crossbow coverage of the enemy and us, which is at least several times more than the Ganning army.

Fortunately, just when Gan Ning was slightly panicked and weak, the follow-up 2,500 reinforcements had already shouted and approached the camp gate. Everyone fought on foot, but only one of them, Guan Yu, rode his horse and rushed into the camp first.

In fact, on the way up the mountain, in order to ensure that he did not get out of touch with the large army, and in order to save horsepower, Guan Yu also led the horse to climb the mountain on foot, and it was not until he approached the flat land where he camped on the top of the mountain that Guan Yu got on his horse and rushed to kill.

All the obstacles to rejecting horses and preventing the rear army from entering the camp have long been cleared by Gan Ning, so Guan Yu can cut it as long as he leads the troops to meet people.

"On the order of Liu Jingzhou, lead the imperial court to reinforce 10,000 troops here! Those who descend will not be killed! General Wen, you attack Xizhai! ”

"General Guan, don't worry, leave it to me!" Zhou Tai strictly followed the pre-staged script, and led half of his troops to rush in from another gap.

"Zhongye be careful!"

Their plan was to disguise Wen Ping, the general of Liu Biao's lineage who had first defected to him, and pretend that Liu Biao had borrowed imperial soldiers and horses from elsewhere to quell the separatist forces in Jingnan counties. In this way, it will be easier to rely on the righteousness of the court to punish disobedience.

Anyway, it's so dark that the enemy can't see how many soldiers there are, so he has to brag when it's time to brag.

More than 20,000 people can't be killed by force, and 3,000 soldiers have to be slashed, Guan Yu's biggest advantage is to pretend that the court is in chaos.

Sure enough, after this, Zhang Xian's troops fell into complete chaos, and the troops who had been completely stunned by the robbery camp had not been relieved of their fatigue all day, and they were all hung up with a breath of gas after being awakened.

Now that I got up and the gas was gone, the troops collapsed directly.

There are still many people who are not sober in the first place, and really think that Liu Biao came to quell the rebellion, and surrendered on his knees in a daze, which also caused a brainless chain reaction.

Seeing this, Zhang Xian was in a hurry, and ascended the inner camp to command the crossbowmen to release arrows, and also asked them to transfer the target to prepare to gather fire Guan Yu. But because he yelled too conspicuously, he was noticed by Gan Ning.

Gan Ning didn't bring a bow and arrow to rob the camp, but in the melee, so many people died in the two armies, and he could pick it up anyway, he took advantage of Zhang Xian's arrogant roar, and shot an arrow, hitting Zhang Xian's chest and abdomen.

Zhang Xian was dressed in iron armor, but he was not shot to death, but he was also pierced by an arrow that entered the flesh half an inch in severe pain, and fell off the wooden platform in a trance.

Gan Ning hurriedly shouted: "Zhang Xian has been shot by me!" ”

"I ...... Grunt...... I'm not dead! Zhang Xian lay on the ground with mud, struggling to clarify.

Midnight......
