Chapter 857: Nanding - What is the Goal?

He Wenchang was about to leave, when he suddenly heard shouts of killing from the front of the camp, and immediately retracted his legs, which had been raised, and returned to the camp of the three divisions of education, and ordered: "Close the gate of the camp immediately, and call all the soldiers to guard against the enemy." ”

He looked up again to the north, and saw that some places were already lit up red, and understood that the attackers had lit some firewood, hay, or tents. Fortunately, the wind is not strong tonight, and the fire will not spread quickly; Annam's climate is also relatively humid, which should be able to contain it.

But the fire clearly caused panic. There are countless examples of the use of fire to defeat the enemy army in Chinese history, especially several famous battles in which the weak defeated the strong, such as the Battle of Chibi, the Battle of Yiling, and the Battle of Poyang Lake in this dynasty, all of which used fire to defeat the enemy and win the war.

Even Long Shangden said with some panic: "There is a fire in the north? What's going on? Do you want everyone to get ready? ”

"No!" He Wenchang shouted loudly: "It's just a small flame, and the wind is not strong tonight, so it can't burn!" ”

"But," Long Shangden didn't finish speaking, but He Wenchang interrupted: "No! The fire will not burn! ”

Long Shangden was shocked by his momentum for a while, and he was stunned in place.

At this time, the person who had been standing behind the dragon and wearing a loose military uniform of the Ming Dynasty said softly: "Lord He, even if the fire will not burn, but listening to the direction from which the voice came, the Annan people should be the idea of capturing the thief and capturing the king first, and if they want to raid the camp of His Royal Highness King Jingjiang, should we order soldiers and horses to rescue?" ”

He Wenchang was about to agree, but his mouth opened and he didn't say anything, but lowered his head and thought about it again. The man who had just spoken did not disturb him.

After a while, He Wenchang raised his head and shouted to Long Shangdeng: "Long Tushe, immediately gather all the soldiers in the camp and follow me out of the camp." ”

Long Shangdeng thought that he was going to take his soldiers to rescue Zhu Zanyi, and immediately greeted happily: if it was because they made His Royal Highness King Jingjiang safe, they would have made a great contribution, and the Ming court would never hesitate to reward; Even if he didn't make any contributions, he could be familiar in front of Zhu Zanyi, and Zhu Zanyi had to come up with something to reward them. The heads of several villages probably also thought of this layer, so they greeted their soldiers very hard.

Soon, more than 1,000 people from the three departments of education and education were all assembled, and under the leadership of He Wenchang, they went out of the camp and rushed to one place.

But Long Shangdeng immediately noticed that something was wrong: "Lord He, the camp of His Royal Highness King Jingjiang is in the north, not in this direction!" ”

"That's right, that's the direction." He Wenchang said: "His Royal Highness's camp has His Royal Highness's own strong Guilin Left Guard who has been running for many years, and it is inside the camp, there will not be many soldiers in the camp of the Annan people, even if it happens suddenly, it may not be able to defeat the Guilin Left Guard, as long as it is delayed for a while, the Jinwu Advance Guard and other guards near the Guilin Left Guard will immediately rush over, and they have no chance of winning." So the real goal of the Annamite people is definitely not His Highness! ”

"What do you mean," the man who spoke just now added, "The raid on the camp of His Royal Highness King Jingjiang by the Annan people is just a sound attack, and there is another target that they really want to attack, and the raid on His Highness is intended to attract the soldiers of the whole battalion to protect His Highness, so that there will be loopholes in the defense of other places?" ”

"It must be so." He Wenchang glanced sideways at the woman who spoke just now and said.

"Could it be the artillery team? Siege artillery was very important, and if the Annam destroyed all the cannons, even if there were still a few cannons on the ship, it would not be much more than the cannons at the head of Nanding City, and the pressure on them to defend the city would be greatly reduced. The woman said again.

"Not a cannon! There is more important in the battalion than artillery. If the Annamites want to attack, it must be there! He Wenchang said.

……

……

"Quick, light fireworks that mean, 'It's safe here, the enemy has another goal.'"

Hurriedly walked out of the tent, while Lin Yurong, who was still getting dressed, ran to the side of one person and shouted loudly: "Your Highness has Guilin Left Guard here to escort, and the Annan people who are attacking and harassing on the opposite side are at most 3,000 people, even if the Guilin Left Guard can only exert six or seven percent of their strength in a hurry, but it is not something that the Annan people on the opposite side can break through, their real goal must be something else, and immediately send a signal to let the soldiers of each camp go to rescue their real target!" ”

"Lord Lin, subordinates can't send such a signal!" The person in charge of keeping the fireworks in front of him stopped in front of Lin Yurong and said, "My lord, this is just your guess, and it may not be accurate. ”

"I guessed right! You're going to set off fireworks! Lin Yurong shouted loudly again.

"No! Your Highness's safety is more important than anything else, and you must not take any risks. Unless ordered by His Highness, his subordinates will never send out fireworks with such meaning! The man said firmly.

Lin Yurong glanced at the soldiers behind him, scolded hatefully, and hurriedly ran to Zhu Zanyi's tent.

At this time, there were dozens of soldiers of Guilin's left guard near the tent where the "Jingjiang" banner was hung around, and they all held crossbows in their hands, and there were crossbows that had been loaded with arrows at their feet, and the crossbow arrows in their hands could be picked up from the ground immediately after shooting and continued to shoot arrows. There were also a few men with muskets in their hands, looking straight ahead with serious faces by the light of the torches. Lin Yurong raised his hands high, and was inspected by them before he was able to enter the tent.

As soon as he walked in, Zhu Zanyi, who was anxiously stomping his steps in the tent, greeted him and said, "Lin Aiqing, the Annan people who attacked the camp have already hit your tent?" ”

"No, there are other things that His Highness wants to deal with immediately. I also ask Your Highness to give an order to immediately send fireworks to the caretaker with the meaning of 'It's safe here, the enemy has another goal.' ”

Lin Yurong said: "Your Highness, listen to the voice from outside, there are only more than 3,000 Annan soldiers attacking the camp, and there are nearly 10,000 Guilin left guards guarding His Highness, and because most of the Annan people have woken up before they break through the camp, the raid on His Highness's camp will not be successful." ”

"The people of Annam themselves should know. Therefore, the minister thought that the target of their attack on the camp must be something else, not His Highness. Attacking His Highness is just for the sake of making a noise. ”

"Then Aiqing thinks that what is the real purpose of the Annan people's attack on the camp?" After listening to 6's words, 9 didn't feel so comfortable, but he also understood that what he said made sense, so he immediately asked.

"The real purpose of the Annamite attack on the camp must be ......"
