"What? General Wang, you said you were going out to rob the camp of the Tang army? Duan Da and Lu Chu both didn't believe their ears. Although the Tang army was repelled today, the Zhou army also suffered a lot of casualties. And their strength is far inferior to that of the enemy, and they are all infantry. If you stick to the well-defended camp, you may be able to hold out for a few more days, and if you go out of the camp to fight the enemy with superior forces, I am afraid that you will send sheep into the mouth of the tiger.

"Hehe, fighting a war is not easy, let's think about it: even you can't imagine that I will arrange to rob the camp at night, how can the enemy think of it? I estimate that Li Yuanji will definitely let his soldiers prepare to build ladders, catapults and other siege equipment tonight. Well, tomorrow morning we will continue to attack our camp. If we can destroy all the siege equipment he intends to prepare tonight, it will be much easier for us to defend the city tomorrow. Wang Xuanshu explained with a smile.

"And how many men should we send to rob the camp?" Duan Da asked. He was still a little scared.

"Just send 10,000 soldiers and horses. Not far from here is a forest where the enemy will cut down trees if they want to build siege engines. We can send some spies to monitor the enemy's movements, and wait until the middle of the night, when they are at their most exhausted, to launch a surprise attack! This time, I will definitely leave a profound image for Li Yuanji. Wang Xuanshu's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light at this time.

In the early summer night sky, a breeze blows, and the dark sky seems to have been washed by clear water, and there is no moon or clouds; The blue sky is only dotted with twinkling stars......

The night grew thicker and thicker, and the city, the woods, the camps, and the wilderness all seemed to fall into a mysterious silence.

The moon that was about to set was still lingering in the distant sky for a long time and refused to leave, and in the camp of the Tang army, all the people were asleep deeply, after all, most of the people in the Tang army had been busy in the woods for most of the night, and had just returned to the camp. They fought during the day, and at night they had to cut down trees and build siege engines. There was almost no rest for a day and a night, so as soon as they collapsed in the tent, they snored like thunder.

In the second half of the night, when a person slept most soundly, even the sentry of the Tang Army leaned on the edge of the fence of the camp and dozed off.

However, at this moment, several black shadows quietly sneaked to the gate of the Tang Army camp, and then raised the dagger glowing with cold light in their hands and quietly killed the sentry at the door. Immediately afterwards, several black shadows moved the iron thorns and horse bars blocking the camp gate to the side.

The black shadow of Wei made a gesture behind at this time, only to see a large number of Zhou infantry rushing over from outside the camp tent, and then killed into the camp of the Tang army. However, they were all dressed in Tang Jun's armor, and only a white towel was tied to their arms for identification.

After these impersonating Zhou troops stormed the Tang army camp, they immediately divided into two and began to operate.

He pulled out his bow and arrow from behind, then lit the fire on the arrow and shot at the camp tent of the Tang army. The other went straight to the rear of the Tang army's camp tent, where the siege machinery that the Tang army had just built was stored.

Many Tang soldiers woke up in their sleep and ran out of the camp in a panic, but they were immediately killed or shot by the Zhou soldiers who had already gathered strength around the camp. Chaos immediately erupted in the camp.

"King Qi! Oh no! The Zhou army is coming to attack! Li Yuanji's personal soldiers hurriedly woke up Li Yuanji, who was still asleep.

Li Yuanji only had a big fight with two beautiful women from a nearby village last night, and slept like dead pigs. After hearing the fierce shouts of killing coming from outside the camp tent, he hurriedly put on his armor and walked out of the tent with the help of his own soldiers.

It's just that when he looked at the situation in the camp, he was stunned, and saw that the whole camp seemed to have turned into a sea of fire, and there were fights everywhere. Howls, cries, moans resounded throughout the camp.

"Quick! Tell the soldiers to assemble and respond calmly. Even if the Zhou army comes out of the camp to attack us, it will only be 20,000 people, and we will have 40,000 people, what are you afraid of! Li Yuanji looked at the chaotic camp and gave orders to his own soldiers angrily.

The soldier immediately ran to inform the officer of the rank of lieutenant. But just after he left, Li Yuanji heard the screams again.

"King Qi, something is wrong, our soldiers are killing each other!" At this time, Zhang Baode was disheveled, and his helmet was crooked, and he ran to Li Yuanji and said in panic.

As soon as Li Yuanji heard Zhang Baode's words, he angrily reprimanded: "What? How can they kill each other? Are they crazy? Can't even tell the difference between himself and Zhou Jun? ”

"King Qi, the Zhou army that came to sneak attack is all wearing the armor of our Tang army. Maybe they have a way of distinguishing friend from foe, but our soldiers don't know it. When they saw that the murderer was also wearing Tang Army armor, they had to instinctively kill the person closest to them, who he didn't know and was hostile. In this way, we killed many of our own people. Zhang Baode hurriedly explained.

"Where did they get so many of our uniforms?" Li Yuanji asked with some surprise.

"King Qi, have you forgotten that our camp has been occupied by them? Our grain and grass are all in the big camp, where a lot of our army's clothes and armor are stored. Zhang Baode reminded.

Li Yuanji suddenly realized at this time, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

"General Zhang, what should we do now?" Li Yuanji was also a little anxious, if the 40,000 army collapsed like this, then it was estimated that even if Li Yuan didn't kill him, he would definitely be sent to the cold palace forever.

When Zhang Baode heard Li Yuanji ask such a question, his heart suddenly felt a burst of contempt. I secretly thought that you were still the master of the hall, and I was at a loss in the face of the robbery.

It's just that it's one thing to look down on this dumb brother, and it's another thing to help him or not, after all, now the two of them are grasshoppers tied to a line, if the 40,000 army is wiped out. Although Li Yuanji can't escape punishment, he Zhang Baode will definitely die.

"King Qi, for now, please authorize the last general to take full command, the last general may have to take some extraordinary measures to stabilize the mood of the soldiers!" Zhang Baode bowed down and said.

"Good! The king now gives you full command and kills anyone who doesn't obey the order! Li Yuanji immediately ordered. He can be regarded as a general who has led his troops to fight several battles, and he is naturally not completely incompetent.

Zhang Baode nodded, then turned to the herald and said: "The herald will order: All our soldiers must not move around, and they must not approach others at will. The soldiers of each unit first gather at the group commander, and then the group commander leads them to the team leader to gather, and then the team leader leads them to the regiment commander and brigade commander to assemble...... And so on! ”

His order really got to the point. Afterwards, even Wang Xuanshu believed that under the circumstances at that time, the measures taken by Zhang Baode should be the most effective way to stop the chaos.

As Zhang Baode's orders began to be implemented, the mood of the soldiers of the Tang army gradually stabilized, and gradually began to organize resistance, and the sneak attack troops of the Zhou army led by Wang Xuanshu began to be overwhelmed, after all, they were quite different from the Tang army in terms of the quality of soldiers and the number of troops.

At the beginning, the Zhou army took advantage of the Tang army's failure to react and gained the upper hand in chaos. Now the Tang army has come to its senses and is gradually stabilizing. It's hard for them to support it.

"General Wang! I have just led my army to attack the Tang army's armory, and burned down all the siege vehicles, ladders, and catapults they had just built. At this time, Lu Chu rode a white horse and galloped over and said. His body was also covered in blood, and he looked very scary, and it was probably a difficult battle to finally complete the task.

"Now that the purpose of the battle has been achieved. Then let's get out of the way! Wang Xuanshu took a look at the surrounding situation, and saw that the Zhou army was already a little overwhelmed, and the Tang army began to gradually surround it.

"Okay, General Wang, you and Lord Lu should withdraw first! Duan stayed and broke off! Duan Da clenched his fists with both hands at this time.

Wang Xuanshu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!" But you have to be careful, don't fall in love......"

"As soon as we leave the camp gate, you should also withdraw immediately!" He finally admonished.

"Don't worry! General Wang, Duan still attaches great importance to his own little life. Duan Da said with a smile.

After Wang Xuanshu and the others led the army away, he raised his spear and said loudly to his subordinates: "Brothers, let's stay behind and cover the retreat of Young Master Wang Xuanshu and them!"

As a result, more than 2,000 soldiers under his direct command fought and retreated, relying on the fence and iron thorns at the entrance of the Tang army's camp, and using spears and bows and arrows to drag Zhang Baode's army that tried to pursue out of the camp for more than half an hour.

Duan Da suffered several minor injuries on his face and arms at this time, and he was drenched in blood. After a brief bandage, he looked around and saw that there were only many soldiers still following him, and most of them were wounded. But inferring from the time, Wang Xuanshu and the others should have returned to the camp early.

He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brothers, let's withdraw too!" ”

"Haha! Do you still want to withdraw? Do you think that the barracks of our Tang Army are so good? A cold snort came from behind Duan Da.

Duan Da looked back, only to see that a large number of Tang troops had already detoured behind him, probably coming out of another door in the camp tent. For a Tang army general, he shouted to Duan Da with a spear: "It will be Zhang Baode, the right guard of the Tang Dynasty, you quickly put down your arms and surrender, I can spare your life, if you are obsessed again, don't blame Zhang for not leaving a single mouth!" ”

Duan Da quickly made up his mind at this time, and he shouted to the soldiers who were fighting with him with red eyes: "Everyone go up together and kill a blood to go back!" As he spoke, he picked up his gun and galloped towards the commander of the Tang Army......

The shouts of killing, the screams of misery, and the clashing of weapons sounded miserably......
