Suo Chao asked someone to beat the subordinates who lost their ears out of the camp, and he thought quietly in the military tent for a while, and then called Xue Yong over. said to him: "Li Cheng can't persuade him to surrender, and he will definitely raise troops to attack." This battle is not small, and the time has come for us to serve the cottage, and we will go to the soldiers and prepare to fight. Then he instructed Zhou Jin to go and inquire quickly.

This week, I never said in front of Lu Qian that I wanted to join Liangshan, but when Suo Chao led his troops down the mountain, he asked the leopard head to follow him left and right. But the pioneer believed in him.

When Shen was halfway through, vaguely, he had seen a flat ground in the northwest corner, hugging a piece of dust, and the wind was rolling, and it was rushing towards Mengzhou City. Suo Chao expected that most of the Daimyo's army was approaching.

At this moment, Zhou Jin took a few horses and watched from a distance where the Daimyo's army came. I saw that the dust and fog in the northwest were high, as if a row of mountain shadows had been embraced on the plane. In the dust, the flag is unfurled, sent with the wind, the drum beats in winter, and the sound of shaking the earth and the earth.

After a short time, I saw Zhou Jin leading people back to the camp.

He reported to Suo Chao: "Li Chengbu really had 10,000 foot riders, so he set up camp five miles west of Mengzhou City, and only sent 100 people into Mengzhou City. ”

The 10,000 forbidden troops of the Daimyo Mansion, plus the soldiers and horses of Mengzhou City, are already five times larger than Suo Chao's troops.

The pioneer didn't care, and said to the left and right: "It's expected." If Li Chengruo raised troops to save Mengzhou, how could he dare to come if he didn't mobilize tens of thousands of horses? When I was preparing to fight, I expected him to be unlucky. Xue Yong, Li Tai and others all laughed when they heard this.

Suo Chao said again: "The soldiers and horses of the Daimyo Mansion have long been abandoned, and when I served there in the past, I only restrained my subordinates strictly, which caused countless exclusions. The forbidden army there is not even as good as the volunteer soldiers, and they are blind to the country's abundant money and food. Now Li Cheng, the birdman, is here, and he will teach him to see what the world is sharp and sharp, and let him know that I am very good at Liang Shanbo. ”

Suo Chao looked at the sky, the yellow mist was full of sky, and the northwest wind was blowing very tightly, blowing through the fields and woods outside the city, whirring sound. The sun seemed to be covered by a layer of yellow silk, without a trace of warmth. It is expected that there will be no moonlight on the evening of this day.

Suo Chao said to Xue Yong, "As my brother expected, Li Cheng did not raise troops out of anger. Tonight, I led people to steal the camp, and first broke the thief's spirit. It will be easier to fight again tomorrow. According to Xue Yong's policy, only Suo Chao was asked to lead a small number of elite soldiers to attack the Daimyo's army, and since he led the soldiers and horses to guard under the city of Mengzhou, the soldiers and horses in the city dared to open the city to rescue, so they were asked to open up and not close.

At that moment, Suo Chao ordered the front camp of the three regiments and supervised the soldiers to feast on the war meal. After the first shift, Zhou Jin first led 200 people out, and then Suo Chao led the remaining 300 people, and his own personal guards to do the second wave.

The two groups of people went straight to the camp of the Daimyo's army, and when they arrived at the position after half an hour, they were in the camp of the Daimyo's army, and the lights were everywhere, and they heard each other. The northwest wind was still blowing. Even though there was some noise, the Daimyo's army could not hear it when they had the upper hand. When it was time for the second watch, Zhou Jinbu first made a noise, and 200 people stood still, only shouting vigorously, beating gongs and drums. In the dark night, I don't know how many people and horses have arrived.

When the lights were lit in the military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion, and they all stood up in armor, and there was a police battle, Zhou Jin told the soldiers to stop the sound. After half an hour like this, Suo Chao ordered the soldiers to beat the snare drum and shout loudly.

This is a tactic of harassment, that is, exhausting the spirit of the officers and soldiers, and asking them to relax their vigilance. It's like the 'wolf came', once, twice, three times, and the fourth time, will you still believe it?

Anyway, Li Cheng didn't dare to raise troops out of the camp in the dark, what kind of virtue would his soldiers have, Li Cheng didn't know? No matter how angry he is, he can only press it until tomorrow. Besides, this Li Tianwang is still very reserved, otherwise when the next scholar was cut off and put back, he would have already raised troops to fight like thunder.

From the second watch day to the fourth watch day, the time passed in the middle of the night, Zhou Jin and Suo Chao echoed each other from afar, singing and harmonizing with each other, and more than a dozen recitals were staged for a longer or shorter time, so that the Daimyo's army in the camp was tortured to death.

And since the fourth watch, there has been no such noise. Li Cheng couldn't completely relax at first, but the fifth watch arrived, and it was a whole hour, and he didn't hear the harassment of the thieves anymore, even Li Cheng relaxed and lay down to rest.

He didn't have a glow-in-the-dark eye, and he couldn't see that two or three hundred meters outside the camp, two groups of Liangshan sergeants were silently eating dry food and drinking cold water. It's already cold in October, and it's snowing. And they stayed in the winter night for most of the day.

It is also thanks to the strong foundation of the Liangshan soldiers, if they are replaced by the Song army, regardless of whether they can endure it in terms of discipline or not, just the cold air of this night has made them go to the tenth layer of combat power.

The army of the Daimyo Mansion knew that the strength of the Liangshan army was weak, and it was almost dusk before it was set up, but it only erected tents, piled up some antler fences outside, and did not build fortifications and dig trenches. At dawn here, the Liangshan army slaughtered fiercely, and the soldiers lit torches and shouted at the same time, like two flying fire arrays rolling up on the spot and rushing towards the military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion.

The latter was harassed for half the night, the spirit was exhausted, many people had been immersed in sleep, and now they woke up in their dreams, some people were panicked, and some people thought that Liang Shanjun was bluffing again, they closed their eyes and muttered, turned over and covered their ears and planned to continue sleeping.

The Liangshan army can't do a bow for each person at present, but the front camp is the most elite in each department, and it can be said that everyone carries a bow. When the two groups of men rushed to the front of the Daimyo's military camp fifty paces, some of them stood still, stuck their torches on the ground, drew their special rockets, lit the arrows, bent their bows and arrows, and shot them into the Daimyo's military camp.

Hundreds of rockets fell into the camp of the Daimyo's army, landed on the tents and fences, and immediately ignited a raging fire.

Moreover, the rockets were not a one-shot deal, and the follow-up arrows fell like raindrops, and the flames continued to rise from the military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion, and the war drums and gongs once again made a huge roar, and hundreds of soldiers stood on the top of the city and let out bursts of shouts and killings, which once again disturbed the silence in the Daimyo's military camp.

Many soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion entered the tent in a panic, and what caught their eyes was the burning tent and countless soldiers running around like headless flies, and then heard the earth-shattering shouting of killing, and countless soldiers of the Daimyo Mansion hurriedly let out a heart-rending cry without having time to think about it, "The thieves have stolen the camp, flee for your life." He didn't care about putting on his armor and holding a sword, so he hurriedly fled outside the camp.

Suo Chao had already taken the soldiers to break through the corner of the camp and entered the camp. The Liangshan soldiers were chasing and slashing the Daimyo's army on one side, and on the other hand, they were still shouting heartbreakingly: "Li Cheng is dead, let's run for our lives, the Liangshan thieves have already been killed." ”

These shouts made the camp of the Daimyo Mansion more and more chaotic, and countless Song soldiers ran around in the dark night, for fear that they would be caught up and killed by the Liangshan army if they ran slowly.

And when Li Cheng put on his battle armor and crossed his horse with a knife, the entire military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion was already in chaos, as if the camp had been bombed, and in a hurry, he was not able to clean it up for a while.

However, Li Cheng had some courage after all, and understood that the most important thing at this time was to appease the army, so he hurriedly led his soldiers to the highest place, and ordered people to illuminate his faces with torches, so that they shouted loudly, "Li Dujian is here, you should panic when you wait." ”

This Li Cheng was dressed in a series of red robes and wore copper armor, which was specially revealed. Always with a bright face, dozens of bows and crossbows and arrows were already shooting at him. Those people were all wearing the robes of the Song army, but each of them had a conspicuous white scarf tied around their arms.

Li Cheng didn't want to have arrows and crossbows, so he hurriedly dodged, but he didn't completely dodge, and several of his own soldiers around him were shot over, and he himself was hit by an arrow in the shoulder, turned over and rolled off the saddle, but grabbed the reins, climbed up, and fled after hitting the horse.

The person leading this team is none other than Li Tai. He just defected to Liangshan, and he was about to make a contribution, but fortunately, he officially had a foothold on the cottage, and now that he saw Li Chengzhong's arrow, where would he let him run again. Holding a big knife and shouting, he led his brothers to run towards Li Cheng. It's just that Li Tianwang's martial arts are really good, even if he was hit by an arrow, he carried a knife in one hand, sandwiched the horse's belly between his legs, and rushed forward, and when Li Tai rushed to the side, he had to look kind, raised his big knife, waved it in the air, and slashed him to the ground with his shoulder strap arm.

Suo Chao saw clearly in the formation, he was annoyed, shouted, rode his horse and raised his axe to kill Li Cheng, but where would Li Cheng fight against the vanguard? He turned his horse's head around and galloped towards the rear camp.

At this time, there was a great chaos in Mengzhou City. As early as when the drums sounded outside the military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion, the four cities of Mengzhou City were lit up, and Zhizhou personally appeared at the West Gate, with the main general Zhang Tuanlian by his side, and Zhang Tuanlian also had a tall black man by his side. This person is more than six feet tall, born with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and when he goes to that station, he is in a trance like a Vajra Lux. This person's name is called Jiang Zhong, he was born so big, he can make a good stick and fists, and the people in the rivers and lakes call Jiang Men God, which is a "good man" collected by Zhang Tuanlian in Mengzhou.

So on the occasion of Mengzhou's employment, Na Zhizhou was happy to see Jiang Zhong and promised him personally, but if he can make a contribution, he will be good. Jiang Menshen was not happy when he heard it.

He has a lot of courage, and he comes to rely on Zhang Tuanlian, and what he wants is a glory and wealth. And Zhizhou's thighs are thicker than Zhang Tuanlian.

The governor of Mengzhou saw that the soldiers and horses of Liangshan were attacking and harassing the camp of the Daimyo's army, and immediately transferred troops at the south gate of Mengzhou as a deterrent. But seeing that Liang Shanbo was just harassing, he slowly got annoyed and turned back to the state government to rest.

In this way, until dawn, the Liangshan army attacked the military camp of the Daimyo's Mansion, but it was about to succeed, and Zhizhou, who hurried to the city, hurriedly ordered Zhang Tuanlian to lead the troops to threaten the Liangshan bandit camp. Although he also knew that in such a situation, it was safer to close the city gates. But he has to take into account the 'political' implications.

The reinforcements from the Daimyo Mansion came to rescue him, and Liang Zhongshu was standing behind him; He is a little one who knows the state, how dare not rescue? It is one thing to say that those who cannot be saved, and it is another to say whether to save or not to save.

So Zhang Tuanlian pounced. Suo Chao led a battalion to the northwest of the city, but there was still Xue Yong in the Liangshan military camp in the south of the city.

Zhang Tuanlian led more than 1,000 horses out of the city, and Xue Yong, who had been waiting all night, was waiting for him. In the chaotic battle, the Mengzhou army was defeated, Zhang Tuanlian fled back after patting the horse, and the Liangshan army followed into Mengzhou City.

By the time Suo Chao returned victoriously, the banner of the Liangshan Army was already fluttering on the city of Mengzhou. Xue Yong also stood beside a King Kong man.

"Haha, brother, come on. Let me introduce you to a good man. Xue Yong patted Jiang Menshen beside him on the shoulder and laughed: "This is a great hero tonight, not only beheaded the governor of Mengzhou, but also brought the head of Zhang Tuanlian. ”

Jiang Zhong smiled at Suo Chao at this moment, and he was very honest.
