Chapter 81: Serial Scheme
Li Dang is the rise of killing, the body has been stabbed twice, fortunately the wound is not deep, but the blood can't stop pouring out, the stimulation of blood makes him more and more excited the more he fights, at this time I saw this group of Hun cavalry leaders were escorted by everyone and rushed out of the encirclement of the Han army, and his heart was even more annoyed, scolded "waste", and beckoned the deployment around him to chase over.
The 500 Hun cavalry who came to attack the camp came down in a melee, half of them died, and half of them fled.
The battle lasted until the end, and more than 100 Hun cavalry finally managed to break through, which was also helpless, and when the Huns attacked the camp, they put a hundred cavalry outside as a response. When the Han army saw that the Huns were going to run, they naturally refused to let it go easily, and the heavy cavalry chased them out.
However, the speed of the heavy cavalry itself is not fast, chasing dozens of miles, was left behind by the Huns, in case the Huns have an ambush, the heavy cavalry chased out of the former Qu army Houma Dashan although unwilling, but still remember Qin Cheng's instructions, and did not chase again, with the army back to the camp.
After counting the number of people, the Han army beheaded nearly three hundred, and their own casualties were not small, but in the end, it was a premeditated siege, which caught the Huns by surprise, and the casualties were not large.
After counting the number of people, the Han army suddenly discovered a major problem.
"Didn't you see Li Dang and his deployment?" Qin Cheng and Li Guang listened to the sergeant's report and were immediately shocked.
"Before, the last general seemed to see the first wave of people chased out by the major general, the situation was complicated at that time, and the last general didn't see it clearly, so there was no report, but now I see it, it is likely to be a major general." Ji Zhu was just about to come over to report the situation of the firefighting, and when he heard this, he said.
Qin Cheng listened to Ji Zhu's words and wanted to beckon Ma Dashan to come over and ask, because he led the team in the last pursuit of the Huns, but Ji Zhu added: "The last general remembers that the young general was the first to chase out, not with Ma Junhou. ”
The Huns first escorted the leading knights out of the encirclement, and then the remaining cavalry retreated for a while before breaking through, and Ma Dashan chased the Hun cavalry behind the palace. If it was as Ji Zhu said, then Li Dang would have chased the leading Hun cavalry out, that is to say, at this time, he had inevitably fallen into the encirclement of the two teams of Huns who had stood out one after another!
At this time, the night was thick, and Li Guang was anxious, but he couldn't send a large army to chase him out to save him, and he was extremely contradictory for a while.
Qin Cheng couldn't bear to see Li Guang's appearance, so he said: "Don't worry, general, my subordinates will lead people to chase after and save the young general back!" ”
After Qin Cheng finished speaking, he ordered people to leave the camp, and Li Guangyi stopped him, "Li dare to disrespect the military order and attack without authorization, even if he dies, he is to blame, as a hussar captain, how can you risk your life for a small team and ignore the army?" Qin Lang Xiu wants to say again! ”
Qin Cheng knew that Li Guang's words were insincere, several senior generals in the army, who didn't know that Li Guang favored Li Kang? At this time, Li dared to go deep into danger, how could Li Guang not want to save him?
"The general's words are wrong, and the young general can't help it." Qin Chengdao's attitude was also very resolute, "If you don't save the young general today, other generals will be besieged in the future, what should we do?" Saving the major general is not a matter for the general alone, but for the whole army, and this has a bearing on the morale of the whole army. ”
When Qin Cheng said the last sentence, he deliberately accentuated his tone.
In the past few days when the army was stationed in Xiaohua City, the Huns attacked and harassed the surrounding villages and towns, and the army did not attack, and there were already complaints in the army, and some ordinary sergeants could not see the deeper level, and only knew that they would pay attention to the current situation, but Qincheng could not inform the army of the actual plan. After a few days, the morale of the army was faintly unstable, and he was extremely puzzled by the inaction of the Han army. Among them, many people think that this is Qin Cheng's weakness and incompetence, but he is harming the people and the military plan.
Besides, although Li Dang pursued without authorization, in the end, who in the Han army camp at this time did not want to pursue? At this time, if you watch Li Dare fall into trouble and don't save him, the army's heart will really fluctuate!
Li Guang heard Qin Cheng's words, although he didn't want to cause any trouble to the whole army because of Li Kang, but he had to do so, so he said: "Even if you want to save it, I can let Li Hu lead the people, why do you need Qin Lang to come forward in person?" ”
"My subordinates have to go in person." Qin Cheng said, "I have been dealing with the Huns for so long, and my subordinates also want to explore the reality of the Huns and see how they are waiting." ”
Li Guang groaned for a while, and finally agreed, "How many people do you want to bring?" ”
"The subordinates only need to bring the pro-soldier team to go, this time it is to save people, and it is easy to startle the snake if there are too many people." Qincheng Road.
Li Guang wanted to say something, but after all, he didn't say anything, just patted Qin Cheng on the shoulder.
Qin Cheng took a team of more than 40 people and rushed out of the barracks at night.
Where the Huns fled, it is still unknown, but Qincheng has its own way, there are many good trackers in the pro-army team, although it is night, after all, you can still find clues, not to mention others, horseshoe prints are the most intuitive clue.
In the past few days, there has been a lot of information about the attacks on villages and towns near and far, and Qin Cheng expects that the Huns have not yet gathered together, and this time they came out with an elite personal army, and if they encounter any situation, they can also retreat. If it weren't for this certainty, Qin Cheng would not have saved Li Kang.
Qin Cheng is still angry in his heart, Li Dare is this guy, there is more than enough success and more failure.
"Horses!" After the crowd had gone some distance, a sergeant pointed not far away to warn them.
Under the moonlight, on the grassy knoll, a war horse looked around, bowed its head alone, and let out a low neigh.
Running in the sand and running in the snow alone, looking east and west at the road.
Everyone ran over and went up to the grassy hill, and then they saw the scene on the other side of the grassy hill clearly, and for a time everyone's faces were solemn.
Corpses are strewn all over the field, silent.
Eighty percent of the dozens of corpses lying down were Han cavalry.
Through the identification of clothing, it was known that this was a team of cavalry brought out by Li Dang.
Not daring to light the torches, everyone dismounted and looked carefully for a while, but did not find Li Kang's body.
"Can the number of heads and corpses match?" Qin Cheng asked.
"Not a bad one." Qin Qingzhi responded.
"It seems that Li Dang is still alive." Willow Road.
"Get on the horse!" Qin Cheng ordered in a deep voice.
More than forty horsemen remounted their horses and left the place.
As for the corpses, they will naturally be able to clean up tomorrow, but not now. Qin Cheng didn't even send someone back to the barracks to report because the night road did not guarantee safety.
Everyone walked around and checked, rushed into the middle of the night, and finally found the place where the Huns settled in front of Li Min.
To Qin Cheng's relief, the camp not far from them did not have a size of thousands of people, which means that the possible gathering of several Xiongnu cavalry did not appear, at least not yet.
The resting place of more than 200 Huns may have been found in advance, the terrain is good, and there is a rising hill on the back, and there is a maple forest on the hill, and the terrain in front of them is vast.
At this time, the Huns had already set up a marching camp tent, and there were ranger guards outside the camp tent, and the lights in the camp were sparse, and there were only a few points of not bright fire, which was probably also a hidden need.
Qin Cheng and the others led the horses around in a big circle, and went around from the front to the edge of the maple forest behind the side of the camp, hiding the war horses in the forest.
"Qingzhi, you bring someone to answer here, Liu Mu, you and I bring two people to touch in." Qin Cheng stared at the Huns' camp for a while, chose a route, and turned back to Qin Qingzhi and Liu Mu and said.
"Why should the general risk his life, the general doesn't need to go out for trivial matters, just bring two brothers in." Qin Qingzhi persuaded.
Qin Cheng slapped Qin Qing on the back of the head and said, "Don't give me nonsense, I'm giving you an order, not discussing with you." ”
"No, my subordinates obey!" Qin Qingzhi had no choice but to agree.
Qin Cheng looked at Liu Mu, nodded at the two more sturdy sergeants, and asked, "Is there a problem?" ”
"Nope!" The crowd replied.
It was not a simple matter to find Li Kang in the well-laid and well-guarded Hun camp, and then rescue him silently.
The problem is that everyone is still not sure that Li Kang is still alive, or whether the Huns have set a trap for those who came to save him after knowing Li Kang's identity. Since Li Dang didn't die in front, if he didn't report his identity, Qin Cheng didn't believe it.
But now, everyone has to go to the rescue.
A camp tent in the middle of the Huns is the center of the entire camp, at this time there are three people sitting here in the commander and the servant, and the thinner knight is still sitting in the commander's position. As the leader of this group of Xiongnu and even the five groups of Xiongnu who went south this time, the face of the thin knight at this time was not ugly, as if the failure of the attack on the Han army camp just now did not exist.
"In the past few days, we have been harassing the villages and towns of the Han people on the border, burning houses and destroying fields, but the Han army stationed in Xiaohua City has not moved, and everything is as expected by the commander." The hoarse man saluted to the knight sitting in the commander's seat, "The attack on the Han army camp tonight is also carried out according to the plan, and the reaction of the Han army is not bad at all as the commander expected. I wonder if we can send a signal to gather the other three cavalry? ”
"Today's operation, although it is pre-arranged, but after all, it is the sin of this commander to let more than 200 warriors of the Great Huns fall." The thin knight looked sad, "As for the other three cavalry, since the time has come, the signal can be sent now." ”
"The commander doesn't have to blame himself, dying on the battlefield is the glory of the Great Hun warriors, and the Kunlun God will accept them. The commander is responsible for this southern expedition, and he must not be too sad for the sake of small sections. The hoarse man comforted him decently, and then asked people to send a signal to gather the other three Hun cavalry, "Today's attack on the Han army camp, we will pretend to be in the middle of the plan and flee, Li Guang just doesn't want to think that it is difficult for us to have only this little strength." ”
"In the past few days, the three thousand Han army has watched our less than two thousand cavalry burn and loot in the Han border but cannot act, they have been aggrieved to the extreme, and the anger in their hearts has burned extremely strongly, we only need a little teasing, the Han army will break out, and this is a good time for my Great Huns to implement the last step of the plan." Another man was confident, "When the time comes, they just don't want to fall for it." ”
"Don't underestimate Li Guang and Qin Cheng, these two people are not easy to fool." The coach said lightly.
"So I'm going to add another handful of firewood to make the anger in Han Jun's heart burn even more." The hoarse man said in a gloomy voice, and after speaking, he didn't forget to compliment the boss, "The commander's serial plan is really wonderful, even if Li Guangqincheng is smart, can't he still only be led by the commander's nose?" ”
The boss smiled, noncommittal.
"Speaking of Li Guang, today we caught Li Guang's son, and we still have to show how to deal with it." The hoarse man continued.
"Since it is Li Guang's son, then keep it, and it will definitely be useful in the future." The coach said.
"No."
