Wang Xuanshu looked at Yu Ming with admiration at this time, and praised in his mouth: "King Zhou's trick is really unpredictable, if Li Yuanji chased him to General Li's camp, only to find that the 10,000 Chinese army just let the surname in the city wear our army's armor, and then a personal soldier with a similar figure and appearance to King Zhou pretended to be the main general, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, he would definitely be so angry that he vomited blood!" ”

"Hehe, it's impossible to say that it's unpredictable, but it's not difficult to deceive Li Yuanji, a person who is so happy. If it was Li Shimin who stayed in the camp, I am afraid it would be difficult to be fooled! Yu Ming smiled slightly, and then said: "However, Li Yuanji is still cautious, and he only dispatched 40,000 horses. In this way, he should have more than 10,000 soldiers and horses left behind in the camp. We had 10,000 men attacking their camp, and there was no big problem in winning. However, it is necessary to minimize the casualties of our army in order to preserve its strength to cope with Li Shimin's attack...... Therefore, this attack on the Tang army camp is still based on outwitting! ”

After that, Yu Mingfang plucked a branch from the tree, drew it on the ground, and then explained in detail how to deceive the door of the Tang Army's camp......

About half an hour later, in the northeast direction of the Tang army camp, there was a sudden smoke and dust, and there were bursts of people shouting horses neighing, which made the Tang troops in the camp a little surprised. Because that direction is the direction of Li Yuanji's march.

"Could it be that King Qi just went out and encountered an enemy?" Zhang Baode was also a little panicked in his heart.

Just when he was considering whether to send a group of scouts to inquire about the news, the guards at the gate hurriedly came to report: "General Qiyu: There are several soldiers of our army at the gate of the camp who asked to see them, and the commander of the group said that they were soldiers who went out with the king of Qi, and they had just left the camp less than 20 miles before they were attacked by 10,000 enemy troops and fell into a bitter battle. Due to the large number of enemy cavalry and strong combat effectiveness, the king of Qi and his own personal guards are now besieged by the enemy. Therefore, they came to the camp for help and asked for troops to be sent to rescue the King of Qi! ”

"What? King Qi was attacked by the enemy army just after he left the camp? When Zhang Baode heard this, he was also shocked.

He then hurriedly said, "Let those people come in, I'm going to ask what happened!" ”

The guards answered and went out.

A moment later, a soldier dressed in Tang Army armor walked into the big tent. The Tang Jun who walked in the middle was tall, with a scar on his face, several scars on his body, and blood stains on his clothes, which showed that he had gone through a fierce fight.

The Tang soldier knelt down on one knee at this time, saluted Zhang Baode, and then said with a sad face: "General Zhang, something is wrong!" Not long after we left the camp, we encountered a sneak attack by Yuming's army, and it turned out that they had already laid an ambush on it, just waiting for us to get in...... Although our army resisted desperately, the enemy was so fierce that it fell behind. The King of Qi was also besieged by the enemy army in the battle, and was only struggling to support himself. In desperation, his subordinates had to leave the battlefield and beg General Zhang to send troops to rescue. ”

Zhang Baode had heard shouts of killing from the northeast before, and he suspected that Li Yuanji had encountered an enemy. Now he has received confirmation from the mouth of this Tang soldier who asked for help, which makes him even more convinced.

However, after all, he was a general, and he still asked with some caution: "Tell me in detail, how many enemy troops are there?" Who is the leader of the army? How is the combat effectiveness? ”

"The enemy army is about 10,000 people, including cavalry and infantry, and the leading general seems to be a young general wearing white armor, playing the banner of 'Yu', it seems that Zhou Wang Yuming is here in person!" The Don soldier replied.

"This is strange: didn't the scout report before, Yuming personally led 10,000 soldiers and horses to Li Jing's camp? Why did it appear near our army camp again? Will his troops fly? Zhang Baode felt a little unbelievable at this time.

At this moment, the Tang Army soldier beside the gang leader showed a look on his face that wanted to speak and stopped.

Zhang Baode observed carefully, and immediately noticed the strange color on the soldier's face, so he hurriedly asked, "You seem to have something to say?" ”

"Yes! General Zhang, my subordinates just heard that General Zhang felt strange, why did the Zhou army have 10,000 people near our army's camp, and they also played the Yuming banner...... The subordinates knew a little about this situation from the mouth of a captured enemy soldier! ”

"Oh? Come on! What's going on? When Zhang Baode heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The Tang soldier hurriedly said: "When I was defending against the enemy's sneak attack, my subordinates luckily captured an enemy captain, and when my boss interrogated him, his subordinates happened to be standing next to him. From the mouth of the captive, it was known that their equipment and weapons were taken from the Imperial Palace's forbidden army arsenal, which contained about more than 100,000 sets of armor and weapons. And there are only more than 10,000 people in total, so they only received more than 10,000 sets of equipment...... But before they left the city, they saw that Yuming ordered the young and middle-aged people in the city to also receive more than 10,000 sets of armor, and then followed Wang Shichong's eldest Wang Xuanying to the east of the city......"

"I see!" Zhang Baode slapped his thigh at this time and said: "That's it: Yuming must have asked the surname in Luoyang City to put on armor and pick up weapons." Then the army posing as him went to Li Jing's military camp, making us mistakenly think that he wanted to break through and join Li Jing. But his army was already lurking around my camp, ready to ambush. When the main force of our army went to intercept us, he took the opportunity to attack us from above. ”

Only then did several Tang Jun generals in the tent react, and they felt that King Qi had fallen for Yuming's plan again.

"General Zhang, what should we do now?" Several Asian generals asked anxiously.

"What else can I do? Only send troops to rescue ......" Zhang Baode said angrily: "If the king of Qi is killed or captured, I am afraid that we will all be killed by the emperor to vent our anger......"

After saying that, he threw the arrow in his hand to the ground and said: "Pass my order: except for leaving a thousand people to garrison the camp, the rest of the men and horses will follow me to rescue the King of Qi!" ”

A moment later, the seven thousand Tang troops were assembled, and then with heavy footsteps, they headed northeast. After a rapid march of more than half an hour, they arrived at a small river twenty miles away from the camp, only to see more than 1,000 cavalry of the Zhou Army running back and forth here dragging tree branches, and then shouting loudly. Whenever two cavalrymen staggered, they collided with their weapons and made a loud sound of blades colliding.

At the scene, there was not a single Tang soldier at all, nor did I see any corpses or traces of fighting.

"Oops! Hit the trick! Seeing this scene in front of him, Zhang Baode immediately reacted, and he fell for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.

At this moment, when the cavalry of the Zhou army saw Zhang Baode leading the army to arrive, they immediately blew a sharp whistle, and then scattered with a roar.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Tang Army instinctively wanted to step forward to catch up, but the enemy was all cavalry. How can they outrun the enemy's four legs on two legs. However, after chasing for a few feet, I saw that the enemy only had small black dots in the distance.

"General Zhang, it looks like the enemy has fled!" A straight general also reported dumbfounded.

"Run away! They deliberately lured us to come here and run away! Quickly pass my order: the back team becomes the front team, and the front team becomes the back team! Get back to the camp! We have fallen for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. The person who came to report the news must have been a spy of the Zhou army, deliberately pretending to be a soldier under King Qi to lure us out of the camp! Zhang Baode hurriedly shouted.

……

When Zhang Baode led 7,000 Tang troops to run back to the camp in a panic, he saw that the banner of his own camp had been replaced by the banner of the Zhou army. And near the gate of the camp, there are still a lot of blood stains and corpses, judging from the clothes and armor worn by the corpses, most of them are Tang Army's.

Zhang Baode's eyes suddenly darkened, this is a big crime to lose the camp! The whole army's grain, grass and baggage were stored here. If Li Yuanji knew that he had lost the camp, he was afraid that he would immediately order himself to be beheaded, right?

"General Zhang, should we attack it now?" An admiral asked. In his opinion, it seems that there are not many Zhou troops in the camp.

"Attack? That's just self-destruction! Zhang Baode couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Although I don't know how many enemies are coming, the thousands of soldiers of our army who stayed in the camp were wiped out in a short time, which shows that the enemy's combat effectiveness is far stronger than ours...... Moreover, with Yuming's shrewdness, how could he not count me as returning to the camp after discovering the plan......"

"Huh! General Zhang is really smart! Then a clear voice rang out, and the bloodstained door of the camp opened. Out of it came a handsome young man dressed in white clothes and white armor. Behind him were countless soldiers of the Zhou army dressed in Mingguang armor, and at a cursory glance, the number was at least more than ten thousand.

"Let's withdraw!" Zhang Baode had to make such a difficult decision. With 7,000 tired infantry who had only traveled a long distance, they attacked more than 10,000 elite soldiers of the Zhou army, and the other side still had a large camp to defend. He could never win.

Now the only way to do this is to withdraw first, and after meeting with Li Yuanji, we can think about how to recapture the camp.

"Haha! Zhang Baode, do you think you can still say withdraw now? Yu Ming smiled coldly, and he waved his hand at this time: "Let's go together!" Kill me! ”

As soon as his voice fell, I saw a large number of Zhou soldiers pouring out of the camp, many of them were cavalrymen, who were holding sabers and rushing towards the Tang army with loud shouts.

In fact, if Zhang Baode ordered to line up on the spot and put on a posture of desperate resistance, he would still have a fight with the Zhou army. But he ordered to withdraw early, which made all his soldiers have no intention of fighting, and just want to flee as soon as possible and leave the battlefield.

Among Yuming's 10,000 horses, 10,000 are cavalry, and when the enemy is already in a rout, cavalry is the best type of army to chase and kill the enemy.

After Yu Ming's order, a large number of Zhou cavalry killed from both sides of the camp, and together with the Zhou infantry who came out of the camp, they formed an encirclement of the Tang army.
