I saw that in the direction of the north, there was a commotion, and in the distance, the dust was flying. Those with a little experience will know that a large group of people is coming.

"Looks like the slave chief is here!" Li Guo saw it, said with a smile, and strode towards the northern section of the city wall. Li Dingguo followed behind him and also headed north.

As expected, after arriving at the northern city wall, I saw a large group of people and horses in the distance, and they stopped at the foot of a low mountain about five miles away from Yaozhou Station. The infantry army began to camp busily there, while a cavalry army came towards Yaozhouyi. Judging from the banner, it is the slave chieftain, that is, what Prince Yu Aixinjue Luo Duoduo has come over.

Jianyu was still experienced in the firearms of the Ming army, and he didn't dare to get too close. Otherwise, he may be injured by the shelling like his Lao Tzu, and then he will be wronged!

Duoduo did not stay in just one position, but first looked at the Yaozhou Station, and then slowly drove the horse around, circling the Yaozhou Station to observe.

Through the binoculars, Li Guo also observed the movements of the slave chief, and then asked Li Dingguo beside him casually: "Do you see anything?" ”

"The Slave Chief is looking for the weak points of our army's defense, so that we can focus on the attack in the coming day." Li Dingguo listened and replied seriously, "The last general looks, he seems to be more concerned about the defense line built with a partial van. If we attack our army tomorrow, we should focus on the defensive line formed by partial vans on the western side! ”

The western defense line he was referring to, although the Ming army built low walls, trenches, and horse rejection, etc., but the terrain was flat, which was conducive to cavalry raids. In the past, the ground was dug into potholes, but because it was possible to use local materials, it was easy to bulldoze those potholes with soil. On the east side, there are more rocks on the side of the van defensive front, which is not conducive to the cavalry assault.

Li Guo nodded when he heard this, and then asked, "Then what do you think our army should do?" ”

When Li Dingguo heard this, he didn't answer immediately, but held up the telescope to confirm it again before answering Li Guodao: "The last general thinks that he can take the initiative to raid tonight and harass Jianyu once, even if he can't disrupt Jianguo's plan, it can also hit their morale and be conducive to tomorrow's defensive operation!" ”

"Oh?" When Li Guo heard this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, and asked with a serious face, "Stealing camp tonight?" But these prisoners are not incompetent, and they are also used to fighting. You think they won't be defenseless and can make a successful sneak attack? ”

If he talks about soldiers on paper, he wants to approve it, and it depends on how Li Dingguo answers.

Li Dingguo didn't seem to notice that Li Guo's expression became serious, and he replied with a serious attitude as always: "Boss, please look, you can see that the Jianyu infantry is very tired." There will certainly be no falsehood in this regard. Yaozhou Station is 60 miles away from Haizhou. The march of the infantry army in a day is about forty miles. Gaizhou to Yaozhou Station, it is also a distance of sixty miles, our army has a car battalion to rely on, can reduce a lot of marching weight, when rushing to Yaozhou Station in the evening, the last general remembers clearly, can already feel that some soldiers are tired......"

The honorific title of Dashuai was originally addressed to the general soldier. But at this time, the deputy general, commonly known as the deputy commander-in-chief, has also commonly used the honorific title of marshal.

At this time, listening to Li Dingguo talking eloquently about the details, Li Guo had a serious expression just now, and couldn't help but stretch out, obviously quite satisfied. But he didn't say anything, and continued to listen to Li Dingguo telling his judgment.

“…… Judging from the time when the Jianyu army arrived, they should have marched in a hurry for a while before they could reach Yaozhouyi before evening. Comparing this with our army, we can see that the Jianyu infantry army must be very tired......"

Hearing this, Li Guo was very satisfied, this was exactly the same as what he thought, and when he was about to say yes, Li Dingguo did not draw a conclusion, and said seriously: "...... In addition, the Jianlu was short of food, and when there was no war in peacetime, they should not be able to eat enough. This sudden march, even if you have a full stomach before departure, there must be a gap between your physical strength and our army. In this way, it will definitely be more exhausting......"

When Li Guo heard this, he couldn't help but appreciate it greatly, even he didn't expect it at the meeting just now, but he didn't expect Li Dingguo to think it through. Yes, yes, a general!

Thinking so, he opened his mouth, and was about to praise him, but saw that Li Dingguo was still explaining his reason: "...... Judging from the recent times, there are very few things that can be eaten on the Jianyu side, let alone meat. In this way, there must be a considerable number of people in the Jianyu army who will become blind after nightfall. And this is conducive to the sneak attack of our army at night. Today is the beginning of the month, and the moonlight is not bright enough, which is also conducive to a sneak attack by our army. ”

Speaking of this, Li Dingguo finally concluded: "With all this, the last general thinks that even if there is a military order to take serious precautions at night, the effect will not be very good. There is a great possibility that tonight's sneak attack will be able to achieve results! The last general is willing to make a military order, and he will not return! ”

Hearing this, Li Guo had nothing to say. looked at Li Dingguo stunned for a while, reached over and patted him on the shoulder, and said seriously: "Yes, you are allowed to fight!" ”

After receiving the military order, Li Dingguo went down to the city to select the soldiers who would fight at night. However, Li Guo still stood at the head of the city, and did not leave, observing the slave chieftain, until the slave chief returned to the camp, he confessed, strengthened precautions at night, and did not come to sneak attack even if the prisoners were built, and the boat capsized in the gutter.

Time passed slowly, the sun set, and night finally fell.

The moon, like a curved eyebrow, hangs in the sky, and it seems that it has not woken up to wake up brighter.

Near Yaozhou Station, it is very quiet, except for the night wind blowing, urging the flag to hunt, there is only the occasional cry of the night owl, and the neighing of war horses. Whether it is the Ming army's side or the Jianjiao outside the city, it seems that they have fallen asleep.

The night slowly deepened, and in the whole heaven and earth, only the sound of the wind blowing the flag was left, and there were no other sounds.

But at this time, Li Dingguo led two hundred Ming troops to slip down from the city wall on the south side of Yaozhouyi and disappeared into the night. At the head of the city, Li Guo did not sleep, and watched Li Dingguo leave.

In the city, there were five hundred cavalry, already quietly rising, eating, silently waiting for something.

As the saying goes, there is no such thing as an absolute victory. Although there is indeed a high probability of winning this night attack, I am not afraid of 10,000, I am afraid of what if. Li Guo was afraid that there would be a problem with Li Dingguo's night attack, and it would be a pity that such a general would be lost, so once he found that something was wrong, he was ready to send a cavalry army to respond.

"Huhuhu......"

"Bang Bang Bang Bang ......"

Outside the wind blowing the forest, there was no other sound, and about an hour later, Li Dingguo led the selected two hundred Ming army soldiers to touch the outside of the Jianyu camp.

The camp was built and covered a wide area. Although the construction time was short, it was already dusk when I arrived. But the layout of the camp is very orderly.

The whole camp is divided into several camps, and between each camp, there is a large open space separating each other. Between the camps, there were soldiers with torches patrolling.

Outside the camp, there is a hastily erected fence, and on the outside of the fence, all the weeds and trees have been cleared by the builders, and it is an open space without any shelter.

On the inside of the fence, every five or six zhang, there is a fixed sentry, which should be standing on something, standing relatively high and looking far. Underneath each fixed post, that is, along the inside of the fence, there are teams of mobile posts patrolling.

I have to say that the defense of the Jianyu camp is still in place.

Li Dingguo hid in the distance, but after seeing these situations, he did not have any frustration. I saw him look up at the sky, and after estimating it in his heart, he patted the guards around him three times, and then his guards gently patted the people behind him three times, and just kept patting down. Everyone who was photographed curled up and began to close their eyes and recuperate.

The night is getting deeper and deeper, and when the soldiers of the Ming Army seem to be really about to fall asleep, the other soldiers around him will immediately wake up with their robes. Unlike these soldiers, Li Dingguo did not have a trace of sleepiness from beginning to end, and kept his eyes wide open and looked at the Jianyu camp.

I have to say that even the soldiers of the Ming army who came to sneak attack were sleepy, let alone the sentry posts in the camp.

Li Dingguo clearly saw that the fixed sentry posts in the camp had begun to yawn and turned to dozing. However, they should also know that they have a duty, and after a while, they will quickly open their eyes and take a look.

At first, when the sentries opened their eyes, they watched the movement outside the camp. However, when they came later, they opened their eyes and saw for the first time, not outside the camp, but to see where the mobile patrol Jianyu had gone? When I saw that it was still far away, I quickly squinted for a while; If you get close, you will cheer up and pretend to be very dedicated.

After observing for a while, Li Dingguo suddenly patted the guards around him twice. Suddenly, his personal guards immediately became energetic, and they immediately slapped their comrades behind him twice, and as this continued, all the soldiers of the Ming army became very energetic. Because they knew that Li Dingguo had already sent the signal and was about to start working.

In the camp, after the mobile guard post passed by again, the Jian Gu on the fixed guard immediately seized the opportunity to squint for a while, but outside the camp, Li Dingguo suddenly waved his hand and issued an order.

Those soldiers of the Ming army who were all waiting for the battle and staring at Li Dingguo's movements immediately moved after seeing them. There is really that feeling of being quiet and moving like a rabbit.

The first few soldiers of the Ming army had already drawn their bows and arrows, and moved closer, and when they arrived at the clearing, they were completely sure, so they aimed at those fixed sentry posts and shot them with an arrow.

"Bang Bang Bang ......"

In the silence of the night, the sound of the bowstring vibrating was indeed a bit loud. It stands to reason that veterans who have been in the military for a long time will be very sensitive to this. However, those few fixed sentry posts, confused, don't want to, and the reaction is much slower than usual.

The arrows that were off the string at close range, arrived in an instant, almost one arrow at a time, and they were all hit by arrows in the head.

Behind the first archer, there were immediately soldiers of the Ming army who used the fire sickle knife they had touched out to make a fire and burn the torch for the first time. Around each torch were the archers' comrades, and the arrows attached to the bowstrings stretched out, and at once they lit the fire-starting objects tied to the arrows, and then, one after another, rockets were fired into the tents of the camp.

At this time, the movement is a bit big. The Jianyu sentry in the distance next door woke up, and they were also dozing off, and the first time they opened their eyes, they saw brilliant meteors streaked across the night sky one by one. After looking at it again, I realized that it was a rocket!

I watched the tents in the camp be ignited by rockets, but the people inside were obviously sleeping extremely dead and did not react at all. Suddenly, these sentry posts were frightened, and suddenly sounded the police gong.

"Bell Bell Bell ......"

The sound of the police gong was particularly loud in the night. The prisoners, who were originally on duty to prevent the illegal camp, immediately woke up and rushed out of the tent as soon as possible. Some of them immediately ran to the fence to prevent the impact of the Ming army; Some people immediately began to inspect the barracks, and if any soldiers dared to go out of the camp without military orders, they would be killed.

There was panic when it was suddenly attacked, but it did not have the effect of bombing the camp. Even if the Ming army outside the camp shouted loudly and created the movement of the Ming army's large-scale surprise attack, it did not cause much panic in the camp. This made Li Dingguo, who had been observing to see if he could take the opportunity to expand the results of the battle, and had to admire that Jianyu was indeed elite, but also regretted that the effect of this night attack was not as good as expected.

He was also a decisive man, and when he saw that there would be no further chance, he immediately ordered a retreat without a trace of hesitation.

In fact, in fact, Li Dingguo also overestimated the elite of Jianyu.

That's right, there are indeed many elites in Jianyu, but in this army, there are quite a few Mongols. They are good at mounted archery, not offensive and defensive battles with strict military discipline. The reason why there was no situation expected by Li Dingguo was not that these Mongols were not afraid, but that their conditions were too poor on weekdays, they were too tired after marching 60 miles, and they slept too dead, so they didn't know that there was a night attack by the Ming army.

However, no matter what, Li Dingguo's night attack still caused the loss of one camp of Jianguo, which was burned by rockets, and it was only because there was a separation zone between the camps and the timely measures taken by Jianyu that it did not affect other camps.

Duoduo was awakened by this movement, looking at the burned camp, and the charred dead, and smelling the smell of meat, for the first time, he felt the battle in Yaozhouyi, I am afraid that it will be difficult to fight! However, this did not make him back down, but instead aroused his fighting spirit.

The attacking Ming army had disappeared into the night, and Duoduo did not order a pursuit. Because he didn't know if this was the Ming army's strategy to lure the snake out of the hole in the dark night. He clearly remembered that Dolgon's original battle of Tower Hill was because of the overnight breakthrough. If you send troops to chase it out, what if you fall into an ambush by the Ming army?

Under the darkness of the enemy and the light of the enemy, we must still be cautious.

At this time, I saw Dolgon staring at Yaozhouyi viciously, and his heart was ruthless, and he said secretly: Wait and see, Minggou!
