Chapter 181: Midnight Raid

In the temporary camp, Su Shang was instructing the young generals, and a scout team member galloped in on horseback.

"Report to the marshal, the enemy army has been discovered on the official road forty miles to the southwest, the enemy army is about 30,000 people, and they are marching towards Anqiu County!"

"How's the equipment, is there cavalry?"

"The enemy army has 2,500 elite cavalry, uniformly equipped with strong bows and arrows, spears and spears, and bright light armor. The rest are all infantry, mostly armed with leather armor swords and spears, among which there are five thousand elites, and the equipment is the same as that of cavalry! ”

After the scouts retreated, Wang Zhongyi was a little worried: "This kind of equipment is comparable to the equipment of our allies!" It seems that the strength of this Meng Haigong should not be underestimated! ”

Su Shang also frowned a little, "This Meng Haigong has a total of 70,000 bandit troops, if they are all equipped with such equipment, it will be a little troublesome!" ”

Qi Gongshun shook his head, "It shouldn't be possible!" As far as I know, the strength of this Meng Haigong should be about the same as my previous Qijia army, the cavalry and the 5,000 elite infantry are his guards, and these 30,000 people should be Meng Haigong's descendant army! ”

"So, as long as we succeed in destroying this bandit army, we can easily take over Gaomi County?"

"Yes and no! There are also three major generals under Meng Haijun, they are now stationed in the three big counties of Jiaonan, Jiaoxi, and Gaomi in Gaomi County, and they and Meng Haigong are only in a joint state, and they did not really take refuge in Meng Haigong, only because Meng Haigong's strength is the strongest in Gaomi County, they nominally defected to Meng Haigong. Therefore, we want to take over Gaomi County in a comprehensive way, and these three generals are also an obstacle! ”

Su Shang was a little surprised, "Then what is the relationship between the three of them, what is their strength, and what is their personality?" ”

"The three of them are all fierce generals on the battlefield, I heard that the three of them are a little dirty with each other, no one obeys anyone, the strength should be between the two and the middle, and there are six or seven thousand soldiers under them, as for the rest, I don't know!"

"No wonder they didn't accept Meng Haigong, but they were all eaten to death by Meng Haigong! It turned out that there was a dispute with each other! ”

Su Shang laughed, "As long as they're not together, this is easy to do!" ”

After speaking, Su Shang frowned again and said: "The strength of this bandit army is a bit high-end, and if the alliance army collides with them, it is estimated that there will be great casualties." Let's think about it, see if there is any good way? ”

Everyone pondered, and after a while, Wang Zhongyi proposed: "Marshal, we can raid in the middle of the night!"

"It's a good idea!"

Liu Lancheng spoke out in agreement, "Raids at night, cavalry piercing, as long as these bandit soldiers are not organized, they will inevitably fail miserably!" ”

Everyone's eyes lit up, and they all nodded in agreement, and Su Shang also smiled and said, "Okay!" Then choose to attack the camp in the middle of the night! Do you have anything to add? ”

"Marshal, there is a large area of flat land along the river five miles ahead, which is very suitable for a large army to camp, and the last general estimates that the enemy will choose it as a campsite, should we retreat now?" Liu Lancheng reminded.

Su Shang thought for a while, "Then retreat five miles, I remember that there is a forest three hundred steps away on the left side, and the army can retreat into the woods to rest first!" ”

After speaking, Su Shang's face was straight, "Everyone immediately go and arrange for the soldiers to withdraw into the woods to rest, tonight the army will start at the fourth watch, and the fifth watch will attack on time!" ”

"Yes!"

The crowd left quickly!

……

The fourth watch is about to pass, the first quarter moon has slanted to the west, but the moonlight is still clear!

On the bank of the small river under the moonlight, on a field more than ten miles wide, Meng Haigong's army was stationed here, with more than 2,000 tents, one after another, densely packed and stretched for several miles.

There was some quiet in the camp tent, the bandit soldiers fell asleep, and even the patrol guards on duty at night couldn't stand the hospitality of Zhou Gong, so they all slipped away and had a meeting with Zhou!

At this time, about five miles to the northeast of them, Su Shang led 20,000 soldiers of the Alliance Army, who were watching them from afar!

"Luo Cheng, you lead 4,000 soldiers to attack from the left flank of the camp, and Wang Zhongyi leads 4,000 soldiers to attack from the right flank of the camp! The other soldiers attacked the big tent of the bandit army with Ben Shuai! ”

"Yes! The end will understand! ”

After the tactical arrangements were completed, Su Shang was not waiting, and ordered in a reprimand: "The army is leaving!"

"Woo! ……”

A trumpet sounded immediately, a low trumpet pierced the calm night sky, and 20,000 Allied soldiers launched in an instant, thousands of horses galloped together, hooves shook the earth, and the prestige spread to all directions!

The overwhelming soldiers of the Allied Army, like thousands of deaths from hell, the neighing of war horses, the shouts of soldiers, thousands of troops and horses, roaring towards the bandit camp tent.

The low sound of the horn woke up Meng Haigong's sweet dream, and the earth shook brought by the galloping of 20,000 war horses, alarming the sleeping bandit soldiers, who got up in panic and fled out of the camp in panic!

The soldiers of the Allied army all held hard bows and arrows, and galloped all the way, and in a blink of an eye, they reached a hundred steps away from the camp of the bandits, and the sharp arrows in their hands shot at the enemy camp one after another!

Ten thousand sharp arrows, whistling up, whistling down, dense rain of arrows, covering the entire bandit camp,

The arrows were fierce and fell straight down, and Sen Leng's sharp arrows pierced through the tent and shot straight down at the bandit soldiers inside the tent.

The sudden change, the bandit soldiers who had no time to react, were shot by arrows one after another, fell, and the terrible sound of misery and the seeping wail instantly tore apart the night sky of dawn, and the sound echoed in the sky above the camp.

After a wave of sharp arrows, the soldiers of the allied army instantly hung their bows and drew their troops, holding spears and spears, divided into more than ten teams of thousands of people, forming more than ten cone-shaped battle formations, under the leadership of the fierce general cone, like more than ten indestructible invisible cones, all the way along the bandit camp high-speed chisel!

After the iron hooves, blood stained the earth, and more than a dozen hellish passages, with severed limbs and blood splattered everywhere, converging into small red streams.

The surviving bandit soldiers were no longer demoralized, crying, screaming, and fleeing in all directions.

In the midst of the chaos, a bandit general who was lucky enough to avoid the sharp arrows and the battle formation crawled close to the war horse next to the remaining tent, carefully untied the horse rope, and suddenly jumped on the horse, urging the war horse to flee quickly in the direction away from the Allied soldiers!

"Thief, don't run!"

An Allied soldier spotted him, shouted, and immediately drew his bow and arrows, and the sharp arrows shot at the bandit generals at high speed!

It's a pity that the two are a little far apart, and the sharp arrows shot at high speed are powerless to plant a few steps behind the bandit general, and they go straight to the ground, and the bandit general then turns into the forest, and there is no trace!

Is the overlord of the late Sui Dynasty good-looking?
