Now that the grass has been startled, the Jin army is very likely to come out to search for the Xian army, so it is better to jump out of the encirclement and directly rob the grain.

Zhong Heng thought about it carefully, and then ordered to abandon the baggage vehicle, put on the armor of the Jin army, and led the troops straight to the north of Horseshoe Ridge, robbing and killing the grain transportation team, and when he arrived, Bailiyan (Wei Xian) left the team. Of course, it's not about running on the road, it's about going to lie.

He is proficient in the accent of the Jin Kingdom, and he is the accent of the capital of the Jin Kingdom, and he is familiar with the rules and habits of the Jin army, so it is not easy to arouse the suspicion of the Jin army reinforcements, if it is someone else's lie, it is very likely to be recognized.

With the decision-making and reaction speed of the Jin army, after the guard battalion learned that the patrol was ambushed, the first thing they could think of was that the baggage supplies were being attacked, but since it was a guard battalion, the number was not large, and if the army was to be mobilized, it was necessary to ask the Chinese army battalion farther away.

This comes and goes again, plus the previous twenty miles, and when the order is given to attack to meet the heavy grain and grass, the Xian army has already succeeded, and it is too late to wait until the main force is dispatched to chase and kill.

This has come and gone, Bailiyan and Zhong Heng have spent more than two quarters of an hour, so after calculating this, the reinforcements of the Jin army should be in front.

After galloping all the way, I saw a group of cavalry coming in front of me, looking at the torches, not to mention more than a thousand people.

But when it comes to the sneak attack of the Xian army, how can the Jin army dispatch more than a thousand cavalry, at least three or five thousand. Having said that, the problem was that the main force of the Xian army east of the Wangqin River was almost completely annihilated, and there was no longer a regular army with a large number of formations.

And at this moment, even Zhao Xun has only six or seven thousand people under him, most of whom are not regular troops.

What's even worse is that the Jin army occupies a large area of Xianguo City, divides the troops, and dilutes the strength of the Jin army in the occupied area, especially the cavalry with strong mobility, so the longer the battle line, the fewer troops can be concentrated and continuously used to advance the front.

The first thousand cavalry is not the most important, the most important thing is the reinforcement infantry behind the cavalry, the cavalry is only to harass and delay time.

And a frontal field attack of 1,000 cavalry is hardly a problem to deal with 3,200,000, or even 4,500 stragglers. This is also the reason why Zhao Xun must set up an ambush with a thousand people in the grove, just because there are few people and he can't beat him.

At the same time, Bailiyan concluded that the Jin army was opened by cavalry in front and infantry behind, and the infantry could not catch up with the cavalry speed for a while. In addition, there was no concept of infantry and cavalry cooperative operations in these years, and there was a gap between cavalry and infantry.

Facing the firelight, the horse whipped quickly, and within a few minutes, Bailiyan encountered the Jin cavalry head-on, the leader was a cavalry commander, seeing the people coming in front, the Jin cavalry was vigilant, and immediately made people wrap Bailiyan left and right:

"Who's coming ahead?"

"Under the command of Lord Qiu, the grain officer of the grain and grass baggage team." Bailiyan's answer is like a stream.

"Since you are a big man and a horse official, why are you here to do something, why is you covered in blood, it is because the grain and grass have been robbed."

"Exactly, Fang Caixianjun fucked my Jin country accent and lied that our army suddenly killed, not to mention more than 3,000 people. Our army was caught off guard and was killed and scattered. Now the Xian army is coming here under the banner of our army, planning to turn elsewhere at the next fork in the road, and please rush to the aid of the capital, and it will be too late to regret it! ”

Bai Liyan's earnestness, coupled with the fact that he was covered in blood, added a bit of a crisis atmosphere. And at this time, the fire could be seen in the distance to the east, and Bailiyan's statement was even more conclusive.

The cavalry of the Jin army all looked at it, presumably the same, so they said:

"Lead the way in front and lead the army forward!"

"No!"

Bailiyan quickly turned his horse, opened the way in front, and led the Jin army eastward. ran out of less than five miles and found the Jin army's heavy grain and grass transport team. The transport team had just been caught off guard by the 100 cavalry of the Jin army pretended to be by the Xian army, and there were many casualties, and suddenly a thousand cavalry appeared in one breath.

"Who's coming?"

The head of the road in front of the baggage team stepped forward and asked in a Jin accent, and at this time, the cavalry of the Jin army rode forward:

"Escort password tonight!"

"Lord Qiu, the grain official, and the captain of the escort were killed in battle, and they don't know the password!"

Hearing this, the cavalry all asked Baili Yan again:

"You know this guy!"

"I don't recognize it!"

"If you don't recognize it, it's the Xian army, kill me!"

The cavalry all gave the order in unison, and the thousands of horsemen behind them were killed together, and the defenders of the grain rose up to fight back, obviously they were caught off guard by the Xian army pretending to be killed, and now there is a team of men and horses, which is no longer known to be true or false.

At this moment, the cavalry commander is smug in his heart, what a coincidence, the grain officer and the escort are all dead, just such a coincidence? How don't you die!

Since the others didn't know the escort password, as soon as the two sides looked at each other like this, they decisively killed them.

Bai Liyan took advantage of his familiarity with the internal affairs of the Jin army to ask Zhong Heng to lure out the grain officer and the escort commander and kill the two of them.

There must be a password every day for entering and leaving the barracks, and when escorting grain and grass, the escort and the receiving camp are familiar with the situation, they rely on face recognition. If you are not familiar with it and hand over at night, you also need a password. Grain and grass are related to military aircraft, and the password is naturally impossible for everyone to know.

In particular, if the tongue is caught, there are not many cases of the enemy opening the city gates and camp gates in the name of transporting grain. Therefore, at most, only two or three people know the password, usually the grain officer, the captain of the guard, and in special cases, it can be told to others.

However, now that the baggage team was raided by Zhong Heng, the above two people hung up before they had time to "make a will", and the unlucky ones were the big head soldiers.

So Bailiyan plucked like this, and the two sides killed each other and broke the blood.

1,000 cavalry against more than 1,500 infantry, which was originally a great advantage, but there were more than 3,000 civilians and a large number of heavy chariots and horses, which seriously restricted the cavalry mobility.

When more than half of the casualties on both sides were killed, Zhong Heng led the pretended Jin cavalry to blend into the Jin cavalry at night, and cooperated with the Jin army to kill the Jin army's grain protection team.

With such a kill, when the Jin army suddenly came to its senses, where could it be clear who and whom, and Zhong Heng was dressed in the Jin army's outfit and mixed in it, the night was like ink, and it was difficult to distinguish under the melee.

On the contrary, the Xianjun distinguishes very clearly, and what is even more lacking in virtue is that Bailiyan took advantage of the chaos to fall into the well, and yelled at the grain and people of the Jin State:

"All the Qi people have stood up for me and fought with the Jin army!"

Well, the Jin army is about to collapse, Bailiyan snorted like this, and the people of the Jin army immediately felt like they had been beaten with chicken blood. This is not counting, there are still many Xianguo people who have been arrested among the people, seeing that the general trend of the Jin army has gone, more than 3,000 people and 2,000 small and medium-sized people immediately fell to the Xian army, and the Jin army was defeated even if it was undefeated.

Originally, more than 1,000 Xian troops robbed and killed 5,000, plus 1,000 cavalry, but under the toss of Bailiyan, they were stunned and defeated two or three thousand Jin troops. Half an hour after the killing, the Jin army suffered heavy casualties, and a large number of infantry of the Jin army could be seen from a distance to the west, and there were still three or four miles of land to go.

Seeing this, Bailiyan decisively converged with General Zhong Heng:

"General Zhong Heng, the infantry of the Jin army brigade has been killed, so for today's plan, we should quickly organize a small group of cavalry, attack it on the flank, and buy time for the evacuation of the baggage."

"That makes sense. This time you have made a great contribution, this Jin army reinforcements will go to deal with it, and you quickly organize people to rush to evacuate as soon as possible, and burn the ones that cannot be taken away, and not a grain of grain can be left for the Jin army! ”

"No!"

Zhong Heng's eyes were blazing, and the happiness in his heart was indescribable.

The two agreed on a plan, and Zhong Heng organized 500 people to ride on the flanks of the Jin army's war horses to attack the Jin army to reinforce the infantry. At the same time, Bai Liyan led the remaining soldiers to organize the retreat of the people, and retreated to the east with a large number of people, and a large number of supplies that could not be taken away were burned on the spot.

Soon after Zhong Heng led five hundred cavalry infantry to rush to kill the Jin army's foot soldiers, he quickly broke away from the battle line, caught up with Baili Yan and retreated westward.

At this time, Bailiyan, Zhong Heng and others had disappeared, and Tianming had found a place to live and repaired in seclusion for the time being.

At the same time, shortly after dawn, the news reached the big tent of Han He's Chinese army, and Han He was shocked to hear that his grain and grass had been robbed.

You must know that there are 1,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry sent for reinforcements, plus 1,500 people in the grain transport team, that is, 5,500 people, and to block such a large army, it will take seven or eight thousand people, to say the least. And when the war started at night, I didn't notice any warning in advance, and it was inconceivable to think about it.

Stayed a little later, last night the reinforcements of the cavalry and the soldiers of the food protection team were transported back to the camp one after another, and after some understanding, it was actually their own people who killed them in the dark, and then they were ambushed by the Xian army, and the infantry who followed were killed even more inexplicably.

Hearing this, Han He was furious:

"How can this be true? It's really hateful to rob my grain under the nose of the old man! ”

At this time, Wang Shuo said:

"General Han Lao, the top priority is how to conquer Feicheng, our army has been attacking Feicheng for a long time, and now we have to divide our troops to occupy the city everywhere, and now the grain and grass have been taken away, I am afraid that the Xian army has reinforcements to cross the river for reinforcements."

"No, the sailors have just come to report, and the salty army and sailors are all cowering in the North Sea, and there is no sign of dividing troops to save them. At present, although the grain and grass have been robbed, there is no major problem. Our army continued to attack the city, and after conquering Feicheng, it was not too late to make repairs. ”

"Whether to immediately send troops to sweep this salty army."

"No, no. The old man expected that there would not be many harassing troops, no more than 3,000 at most, and they would be a rabble. Therefore, it is not possible to divide the troops to encircle and suppress, and after conquering Feicheng, then do encirclement and suppression. ”

Han He's determination to storm Feicheng was beyond Zhao Xun's expectations.

Just when Han He and Wang Shuo were discussing, Ji Changju stepped into the account:

"See the two generals."

"The prince is exempt. I don't know what the son of the world is doing here. ”

Han He asked, and Ji Chang volunteered to ask for his life:

"I heard that the grain and grass were robbed, and this son is willing to lead 3,000 cavalry to chase down the Xianjun dog thieves."

"The son of the world can't, right now our army is being dragged under the fat city, if the son of the world makes another mistake, it will trap our army in passivity."

Han He refused, but Ji Chang was resolute:

"The grain and grass were robbed, the old general didn't plan to stop there!"

"No, this loss of grain and grass is harmless to our army. If the siege of the city is slowed down because of grain and grass, it is not to take care of one thing and lose the other, and fall into the evil plan of the Xian army, so the siege of the city is the first thing, and the grain and grass can still be spent for more than a month, and then transported. ”

Ji Chang was eager to seek merit, and he was bent on killing more heads, and Han He considered the danger of attacking the city, and it was impossible for Ji Chang to take the lead, so Ji Chang was in a panic recently.
