Exactly the same as Xiang Kang's analysis and deduction, knowing that there would be a head-on decisive battle with the young marshal's army at noon the next day, and when time was a little tight, the Qin army in Yu County really did not spend a lot of energy and time to build their own camp fortifications, but only erected camp fences, built gates, a few guard towers and a few arrow towers, and did not even dig a trench to protect the camp, let alone build a strong fortification such as a camp wall, sheep and horse wall.

In this regard, although Gu County's right-hand deputy, Hao Ce, the left lieutenant of Gu County, was also a little worried, and specially ran to Gu County's order to remind him, but because the sky was already slightly dark, Gu County's order did not order the army to build and strengthen the camp overnight, and said with a wave of his hand: "That's it, we have to fight the thieves tomorrow, we can't let the soldiers sleep too late and affect tomorrow's battle, just double the guard tonight." ”

Different from the Qin army in Yuxian County, which was a little careless, the Qin army, which had just suffered a big loss from the enemy two days ago, learned a lesson, and spent a lot of effort to build a strong fortification in the camp fortifications, in addition to digging a wide and deep trench to protect the camp in a race against time, and used the excavated earthwork to build a sheep and horse wall to protect the camp, so that the Qin army crossbowmen could safely hide behind the wall and open their crossbows and release arrows, which greatly strengthened the defensive strength of the camp.

In addition, Chao Zhi also took the initiative to send someone to contact Gu County, asking for a unified password with Gu County's order to screen enemies at night. However, it is a pity that out of distrust of Chao Zhi himself and the soldiers of the Qin army, Gu Xianling, who was afraid of the password being revealed, chose to refuse, saying: "There is no need to unify the password, let's use our own password, anyway, our camp is far away, even if the scouts go out on patrol, they can't touch it, there is no need for that." ”

After the envoy brought Gu County's reply back to the camp of the Qin Army, he learned that his hot face was pasted on Gu County's cold ass, and Chao Zhi, who was already very dissatisfied with Gu County's order, was of course even more angry, so angry that he smashed his fist on the table in front of him again, and said angrily: "If you don't want to unify the password, if the patrol team collides together at night and accidentally fights, you will be responsible for all the consequences!" ”

It's a pity that the opportunity to slap Chao Zhi's face did not appear, because the camp was indeed a little far apart, but the patrols of the Qin army and the Qin army of Su County, which were operating near the camp, never intersected, and naturally there was no accident due to the unification of slogans at night. But fortunately, Chao Zhi is not the kind of person who is particularly small-bellied, and he did not deliberately instruct the patrol under his command to have friction with the Qin army patrol team in Yu County in order to retaliate against Gu County's order, and quickly forgot about the slap in the face.

Worried that the Qin army slept soundly, the Qin army of the county slept more soundly, and in accordance with the order to prepare for war personally issued by the county order, not long after dinner, the soldiers of the Qin army in the county entered the tent one after another to rest, one by one they slept soundly and sweetly, and the barracks also snored for a film, only a very small number of sentries and patrol members tried to keep their eyes open in the dark, carefully paying attention to the movement in the distance, and also looking forward to the changing of the guard time as soon as possible, so that they could quickly go back to sleep.

It was half a moon, it should be the time when the bright moon was bright, but because the weather had been bad this month, today's night sky was still overcast, and there was no starlight and moonlight, and the light on the ground was even worse. But fortunately, the surroundings of the two Qin army camps have always been calm, and there is no abnormality, and the Qin army patrol team is only a little harder, but they don't have to worry much about their own safety.

When it was almost the third watch, the situation finally changed a little, a soldier of Qin County who was patrolling near the camp gate had sharp eyes, and vaguely saw that there seemed to be a figure shaking on the gentle slope, and quickly reminded the chief who led the patrol, but the chief tried to open his eyes and looked carefully for a long time, but he always only saw a dark spot, and said: "Is your eyes dazzling?" There's no one, huh? ”

"It shouldn't be dazzling." The sharp-eyed Qin Bing said truthfully: "Although it was only shaking, I could see clearly that it was a figure, and there was more than one." ”

After a moment's hesitation, the chief made a correct decision and said, "Okay, let's go down with torches and take a closer look to see if there is anyone in the end." ”

According to the commander's orders, the Qin army patrol walked down the gentle slope with torches, and Xiang Zhuang and Feng Zhong, who had already lurked at the lower half of the gentle slope with the surprise attack team of the young marshal's army, also raised their hearts to their throats together, knowing that the self-army was likely to have revealed clues, which alerted the enemy, and quickly discussed in a low voice. You Feng Zhong lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Xiang Zhuang, we may have been exposed, what should we do?" ”

"There's no way, they can't go far, they can only gamble on luck." Xiang Zhuang said in a low voice: "Pass the order, as soon as I make a move, I will immediately do it together, first kill the patrol of this Tyrannical Qin army, and then go straight to the camp gate of the Tyrannical Qin army!" Rush in no matter what! ”

Feng Zhong agreed, and whispered Xiang Zhuang's order backwards, so that the one hundred carefully selected young marshals were ready to charge. Xiang Zhuang clenched his sword and shield with both hands, silently stared at the Qin army patrol slowly approaching, and prayed in his heart, "God bless, you must kill this patrol immediately, and you must rush through the camp gate directly at once." Otherwise, we'll have worked in vain tonight. ”

Out of caution, the Qin army patrol team, which had accidentally found some clues, did not walk quickly, and it took several minutes to reach the waist of the gentle slope, and they also complained to each other because they never found anything abnormal. However, just when this Qin army patrol thought that they would work hard in vain, in the light of the torches, a strong figure suddenly jumped up, carrying a sword and shield and pounced directly on them, and what surprised this Qin army patrol even more was that this sturdy man who suddenly appeared was still wearing the same Qin army uniform as them!

"There are enemies ......."

Xiang Zhuang was originally the top player among the children of the Xiang family, and the action of this heavy responsibility was even faster than a rabbit, as fierce as a tiger, and the Qin soldier who walked in the front with a torch did not even finish shouting, the steel knife in Xiang Zhuang's hand had already stabbed him in the chest, and at the same time, the shield in Xiang Zhuang's left hand also accurately blocked a sword stabbed by the commander of the Qin army patrol in a hurry, and the right hand drew the knife and quickly slashed back, and the right arm of the Qin army chief was also broken in response, holding the sword and falling to the ground, so painful that the chief of the Qin army cried on the spot, "My hand!" ”

At the same time, Feng Zhong, who was all wearing the uniforms of the Qin army, and the rest of the young marshals had already burst into trouble, jumping up and holding swords and spears and rushed towards the Qin army patrol without hesitation, and the other members of the Qin army patrol team saw that there were so many enemies lurking in the dark, and they did not have any will to resist when their souls were scattered, so they turned their heads and rushed up the slope, and they also beat the gong and shouted while running, "Enemy attack!" Enemy attack! There are enemies coming to steal the camp! ”

The critical moment to determine success or failure came, and when there was still some distance from the gate of the Qin military camp, the surprise attack team of the young marshal army led by Xiang Zhuang and Feng Zhong did not dare to hesitate or hesitate, and just rushed directly to the gate of the Qin military camp in great strides, and according to Xiang Kang's instructions in advance, they shouted loudly while charging forward, "The thieves are here!" Run! The thieves are coming! ”

At this time, the confusion between the enemy and me did not have any effect, although it was very strange how the mountain could suddenly rush up so many self-army soldiers, but after hearing the gong alarm, the Qin army responsible for guarding the camp gate still quickly lined up behind the door, and also stretched the crossbow arrows out of the gap in the camp gate, and cast a strong crossbow on the self-army soldiers who suddenly rushed in, shooting and killing a few real Qin soldiers who fled in front, and also shot and wounded several members of the surprise attack team of Xiang Kangjun.

"Oops! It's still a step too late! ”

Xiang Zhuang complained bitterly in his heart, knowing that the enemy was still preparing first, and it was already difficult for his own army to directly break through the camp gate and enter the enemy camp. However, at this moment, Feng Zhong, who was relatively much more attentive next to him, suddenly pointed to a position and shouted: "Brother Xiang Zhuang, look!" There are enemies climbing over the fence! It seems that there is no entrenchment! ”

Looking in the direction guided by Feng Zhong, he saw that there were indeed two Qin soldiers who were climbing the fence and escaping into the camp, Xiang Zhuang, who did not know the situation of the enemy camp in advance, was suddenly overjoyed, and secretly shouted God help me, and then immediately led the young marshal soldiers with Feng Zhong to rush to that position, avoiding the camp gate heavily guarded by the enemy, and directly impacting the barracks of the Qin army in Yu County, and also confirmed with great surprise when he rushed to the close place - the Qin army in Yu County did not dig a trench to protect the camp!

There is no camp trench to protect the fence, and the young marshal soldiers who have enough axes and ropes and other things certainly have a way to deal with these wooden fences, or pick up the axe and directly chop the fence, or tie the fence with ropes and pull it together, and then when the Qin army guarding the gate hurriedly divided the troops to block it, a large row of fences has been directly pulled by the young marshal soldiers and soldiers, and the young marshal soldiers and soldiers cheered like thunder, and hurriedly rushed into the enemy camp like a tide under the leadership of Xiang Zhuang and Feng Zhong, shouting and rushing directly to the Qin soldiers who had just been woken up and were still sleepy.

The melee began, all wearing Qin army clothes, only tied a white cloth to their left arm, and the young marshal soldiers waved their swords and danced, killing people when they saw them, cutting them when they saw the enemy, snatching the bonfire, kicking over the brazier, burning the tent when they saw it, and shouting loudly while killing people and setting fires, "The thieves have come in!" Run! The thieves have come in! Run! ”

Diametrically opposed to the young marshal soldiers with clear tactical purposes, the poor soldiers of the Qin army in Yuxian County were completely dizzy in the melee, and what they heard in their ears were shouting and screaming, but what they saw in their eyes were all companions wearing Qin army uniforms, and they couldn't distinguish between friend and foe at all, so they could only scurry around the camp like headless flies, shouting and trying to find the enemy's location. What's even more infuriating and despicable is that the young marshal soldiers often shout loudly that they are their own people, and at the same time they do not hesitate to greet the soldiers of the Qin army, even if they fail to kill the enemy, it also makes the enemy even more confused, and they don't understand whether the comrades around them are friends or enemies.

In order to protect themselves and survive, the soldiers of the Qin army who had suffered losses and did not die generally chose to give priority to self-defense, as long as a companion approached, whether it was true or not, they all took their weapons to greet their companions first. As a result, the chain reaction was that the soldiers of the Qin army fought each other one after another, shouting loudly to ask the true identity of the other party, while stabbing the other party with their swords and spears, and countless Qin soldiers died tragically at the hands of their own companions. As a result, the chaos of the Qin army is expanding more and more, no matter how loudly the middle and grassroots generals of the Qin army shout orders, they have never been able to control this chaotic situation, and the surprise attack team of the young marshal's army has become more and more bold to fish in troubled waters, expanding the chaos in the Qin army's camp more and more.

At this time, of course, the shouting of killing had already woken up Gu County, who was sleeping soundly in the warm sleeping tent, but what made Hao Ce, the left lieutenant of Yu County, who hurriedly entered the tent to report the situation, was angry that when he learned that it was an enemy sneak attack, the sleepy-eyed Gu Countyling still had the face to exclaim: "Enemy attack? How can it be? Xiang Kang, that traitor, didn't he make an appointment with the official to fight tomorrow at noon? Why did you come and attack our camp again tonight? How can he not believe his word?! ”

"County Zun, we were fooled!" Hao Ce roared angrily: "Xiang Kang's traitor asked us to fight tomorrow is fake, it is true to lie to us to relax our vigilance tonight, we have fallen for his shameless tricks again!" ”

It took a while to come back to his senses, and Gu Xianling jumped up and roared like an angry lion. "Traitor! Shameless traitor! Fail to keep the faith! Break your word! Shameless villain! Despicable scoundrel! ”

"County Zun, now is not the time to scold, you have to quickly find a way to deal with the current situation!" Hao Ce was so anxious that he stomped his feet and said quickly: "The thieves have already rushed into our camp, and they are all wearing our military uniforms, and now our soldiers can't tell who the enemy is, and they have already begun to fight themselves, you have to quickly find a way to deal with it!" ”

"What? The thieves also wore our uniforms? Gu County Commander was shocked again, and after scolding Xiang Kang for his shamelessness and despicability again, Gu County Commander could only hurriedly shout: "Quick, send orders to all armies, each gather up their troops and horses, and fight in formation!" Those who do not obey orders will be killed! Also, send someone to send a letter to Chao Zhi, telling him to send troops to reinforce us quickly, and the thieves may have a follow-up army! ”

At the same time, after seeing the fire in the Qin military camp in the distance, Xiang Kang also drew his sword in his hand, pointing at the camp of the Qin army in Yu County and yelling: "Beat the drums, general attack!" Kill the enemy camp and kill Gu Bi Lao'er! ”

Still at the same time, after seeing the fire in the camp of the Qin army in Yu County, the sentinels of the Qin army who were worried about it also quickly reported the news to the front of Chao Zhi, the main general of the army, Chao Zhi was shocked when he heard the report, and hurriedly put on his clothes and went out of the tent to check the situation, and saw that the friendly camp in the distance was indeed on fire everywhere, Chao Zhi did not dare to hesitate, and immediately shouted: "Order the whole army, immediately get up and prepare for battle, and prepare to reinforce the friendly troops in Yu County!" ”

According to Chao Zhi's order, there are still thousands of people in the Qin army hurriedly got up to prepare for battle, and went to the open space in the camp to assemble and wait for orders, but the Qin army has just shown signs of gathering overnight, and suddenly the gong sound is loud in the darkness in the distance, and no less than twenty gongs are sounded at the same time, and the sound shocks the four fields. Chao Zhi was also immediately taken aback, and blurted out: "There are also thieves in ambush next to our camp!" ”

But fortunately, the gong next to the Qin army's camp only struck for a while, and it quickly disappeared without a trace, but the more this happened, the more frightened Chao Zhi became, and he didn't dare to take the initiative to send troops to rescue the friendly troops in Yu County, so he could only let his army give priority to the camp to prevent the young marshal's army from attacking his camp. Then, after a period of time, when Gu Xianling sent a request for help to Chao Zhi with a fast horse, Chao Zhi was also in a dilemma.

"Risking your chances to save? Or do you prefer self-insurance? ”

When he was struggling and hesitating in his heart, he couldn't help but think of Gu Xianling's ugly face in front of him in the past two days, as well as the injustice he had suffered. Then Chao Zhi quickly made up his mind, and said to the messenger sent by Gu County's order for help: "Go back and tell Gu Xianzun, just say that there is also an ambush of thieves next to my camp, if I divide my troops at this time, my camp will not be able to be saved!" So there is no choice but to ask him to defend the camp with all his might! ”

As if to testify for Chao Zhi, as soon as Chao Zhi's refusal words were finished, there was a noisy gong sound in the darkness in the distance, and Chao Zhi, who no longer dared to take risks, also strengthened his determination to give priority to self-protection, no matter how the envoy of the Qin army in Yuxian County kowtowed and begged, crying and crying, he just refused to let go and send troops......

In fact, even if Chao Zhi took the risk of sending troops to save the Qin army in Yu County, he would not be able to reverse the situation on the battlefield - at most, it would make the Qin army in Yu County lose less miserably. Because Gu County's hastily issued contingency order to fight in formation did not play any role at all, it was already very difficult to find people in the dark night, and the battlefield was already in chaos, Gu County's entourage of course could not quickly convey the order to the middle and grassroots generals of the Qin army, fortunately a few middle-level generals received the order, and it was also difficult to find their subordinate commanders in the chaos, so naturally there was no way to implement Gu County's order. And as Xiang Kang personally led the main force of the young marshal army into the camp of the Qin army and joined the battlefield in the camp, the death knell of the Qin army in Yu County also sounded.

In the shouts of the tide, the main force of the young marshal army, which was still a pure rabble, was all brave, one by one, and charged up after the large and small banners of the young marshal army, like a torrent, directly rushed into the chaotic Qin army camp, and even more frantically killed people when they saw them, cut down when they saw the enemy, knocked down the guard tower, overturned the arrow tower, and cut the dizzy Qin soldiers into pieces and stabbed them into honeycombs. The Qin army had no fighting spirit, and fled to the Chinese army camp almost without any resistance, trampling the fence of the Qin army's camp to smithereens, tearing down the military tent and overturning the carriage, and at the same time completely disrupting the Chinese army team led by Gu Xianling himself, trampling on each other and trampling on countless dead, Gu Xianling and Hao Ce and others were so anxious that they scolded, but there was nothing they could do.

Expelling the defeated soldiers of the Qin army as the vanguard, the main force of the young marshal army who fought a good battle soon rushed directly into the Chinese army camp of the Qin army in Yuxian County, and the camp army of the Qin army, which was already in chaos, was in a panic, and countless soldiers shouted and fled, including many Qin army officers and soldiers. Seeing that the general trend had gone, Hao Ce, who was still loyal, could only quickly pull up the Gu County Order, who was beating his chest, and led a few relatives to blend into the flow of people, and fled to the direction of the horse shed in embarnment, preparing to take the horse and flee to the camp of the Qin army for temporary refuge.

It's a pity that Hao Ce was able to think of snatching horses and fleeing for his life in the chaos, and many Qin soldiers also thought of this, so when Hao Ce and Gu Xianling fled to the stables in embarrassment, the stables were already overcrowded, and there were many Qin soldiers fighting for horses. Hao Ce had no choice but to yell: "Get out of the way!" Get out of the way! The county is here! Gu Xianzun is here, get out of the way immediately! ”

It's useless to shout, the soldiers of the Qin army who have become frightened birds will only think about running for their lives quickly, and where will they give way for Gu Xianling to get on the horse in a big way? At the same time, Hao Ce's hysterical roar also had the opposite effect, and in the chaos, a Qin army team suddenly swept over, shouting and asking, "Where is the county honor?" Where is the county? ”

"I'm here! I'm here! The official is here! ”

Gu Xian Ling kept yelling with a crying voice, and at the same time squeezed through the crowd and struggled to meet the loyal Qin army team, and miraculously joined the Qin army team with the banner of the hundred-man team, and shouted with tears in his eyes: "I am Gu County Order!" Come and save me! ”

What answered Gu County's order was the sneering laughter of everyone in the Qin army's hundred-man team, as well as the swords and spears that couldn't wait to be chopped and stabbed, poor Gu County's order was hit three times and two swords almost instantly, and he was hit his head, and then he was chopped into meat sauce in the blink of an eye, and he didn't understand until he died, "Strange? How could the officer's subordinates kill the officer? ”

"They're thieves!" Hao Ce's reaction was faster than Gu County's reaction, and as soon as he saw Gu County's order fall, he immediately guessed the true identity of this so-called Qin army. However, it was too late to guess, the distance was too close, and more swords and spears had already greeted him one after another, and in the blink of an eye, he was sent to Huangquan Road to be Gu Xianling's companion.
