"Quick, keep attacking me!"

On a high ground outside the camp, Hu Chi'er shouted unbridledly, looking at another group of soldiers who had retreated, he was furious, and hysterically ordered the soldiers to continue to storm the camp in Ganling.

Under his obscene oppression, the military officials who attacked the Ganling camp in front had no choice but to organize and send another wave of attacks. However, the attack on the camp in Ganling was a temporary move, and the army did not carry any siege equipment, so the soldiers could only carry the rudimentary ladders and rams, and pressed the fence on the perimeter of the camp in strands, trying to break through from several weak points at once.

However, Ganling's camp was very strong, and because Li Su led troops to attack Shaanxi County not long ago, Ganling's camp defense was specially strengthened by recruiting a large number of civilian servants, not only digging a deep ditch outside the camp, but also erecting a two-layer fence and erecting partitions to form a solid parapet wall.

Therefore, although Hu Chi'er sent troops to press on it violently, in the face of the Ganling camp that was defending the law, he still hit the head and broke the blood, and he failed to take the important place of the camp in several waves of continuous attacks, but lost a lot of men and horses.

Inside the camp

Standing on the watchtower, Gan Ling, who personally commanded the battle, saw another wave of enemy troops carrying rudimentary siege equipment to attack his camp, and he couldn't help but smile coldly.

There is a cloud in the art of war, "the law of using soldiers, ten is to surround it, five is to attack it, and if it is doubled, it will be fought, and the enemy can divide it, and if it is less, it can be defended, and if it is not, it can be avoided." ”

Hu Chi'er hastily used troops, wanting to capture his well-defended camp, which was originally not easy, and now Hu Chi'er is still so anxious, sparing no troops, taking turns to storm the camp, which is undoubtedly a move to make his mind faint and bring about his own destruction.

The soldiers of Ganling, who were guarding the camp, made full use of the advantages of their own fortifications, condescending on the parapet wall, using bows and arrows to constantly shoot at groups of enemy troops, and the rams and ladders that risked death near the camp gate and parapet wall were also attacked by earth, stone, logs, and gold juice torches, and the equipment was destroyed one after another, and most of the soldiers were killed or wounded.

In the end, the heavy casualties and weak follow-up of the onslaught had to be hastily ended, and the remaining soldiers quickly retreated to their own ranks in the rear as if they had been pardoned.

"Why do you retreat again, let me continue the attack!"

This time, Hu Chi'er saw that the soldiers could not attack again, and he also galloped down the high ground himself, and came to the soldiers who had just retreated violently, glared angrily at the soldiers who commanded the retreat, and scolded him splitly.

The soldier looked at Hu Chi'er, who was still angry, and had no way to avoid it, so he could only say with a bitter face:

"The camp of Ganling has a deep ditch and high wall, and the soldiers are abiding by the law, our army has repeatedly attacked and suffered heavy casualties, but it has been unable to enter the camp for a long time, the morale has been low, the soldiers have no fighting spirit, and the subordinates have to retreat!"

"I just saw clearly on the high ground, and it is clear that you are cowardly in the battle, and the repeated assaults have failed. Our army suffered heavy casualties, but did the rebels in the battalion not suffer casualties? Zhonglang will have an order, be sure to capture the camp of the anti-thief Ganling before nightfall, this attack, still by your main attack, I personally march the military method, if there is a cowardly retreat, kill it! ”

Hu Chi'er did not accept the military official's defense at all. He has repeatedly planned, but all of them have failed, and now he has completely departed from the original plan, and he has also walked to the edge of the cliff to fight to the death, if he can't take the anti-thief Ganling today, and the credit will be atoned, then the guilt he carries on his own body is enough for him to die several times.

Hu Chi'er is a henchman by Niu Fu's side on weekdays, and he is already a lieutenant general in the Weiling Army, and now he is holding a general order and supervising the war with military law, which is even more hot. Under his coercion, several military officials were able to dispatch troops and horses again, prepare to storm the camp gate, and offer emergency fire attack plans.

"Great goodness, use fire to attack the camp gate!"

After attacking the Ganling camp for a long time, Hu Chi'er, who was very inward-looking, was actually panicked in his heart, and when he heard the method of fire attack, his eyes immediately lit up, and he said that it was good, and ordered several military officials with troops to quickly implement it.

Looking upstairs, seeing that the soldiers and horses brought by Hu Chi'er outside the camp were mobilized again, although Gan Ling's face was as usual, he was still vigilant in his heart.

Hu Chi'er attacked the camp in disregard of casualties in these rounds, although the soldiers and horses under his command were killed and wounded heavily, but as the defending side of the Ganling soldiers, there were also some casualties, just taking advantage of the enemy's retreat, Ganling has once again strengthened the strength of the defensive line, for the next enemy attack, he did not dare to relax in his heart.

"Sima, the soldiers and horses outside the camp are divided into manpower, and they are going around to collect firewood and other fire-starting things, but I am afraid that they will carry out a fire attack!"

A military officer in charge of the task of keeping an eye on the enemy situation hurriedly came down from another watchtower, and then hurried up to this watchtower and rushed to Ganling's side to report it.

When Gan Ling heard the words of the military officer, he hurriedly followed the direction pointed by the military officer, put his hand on the pergola, squinted his eyes slightly, and raised his eyes to look at the rear of the soldiers and horses outside the camp.

"Follow me!"

After Gan Ling confirmed that the soldiers and horses outside the camp wanted to use the method of fire attack, he watched the morale of the soldiers and horses outside the camp, and quickly made a decision in his heart. He shouted, immediately turned around and walked quickly down the watchtower, and urgently summoned the military officers who were deployed.

After several military officials in the battalion heard the order and rushed to gather, Gan Ling took the lead in asking.

"Dong Cheng's soldiers and horses in the south are also attacking the camp, how is the current battle situation?"

"Dong Cheng's soldiers and horses in the south, although they have also been attacking the camp, but the first round of attacks were repelled by the soldiers, and after the long ladder and ram were destroyed by the battalion sergeants, they only sent archers to counterattack the sergeants of our battalion, and there was no intention of attacking."

"But are you still rushing to make long ladders, rams and other equipment?"

"It's still in a hurry, but Sima had already ordered the burning of the trees adjacent to the camp, and Dong Cheng's soldiers and horses couldn't get local materials, so the process of catching up was still slow."

Gan Ling and the military officials in charge of the defense south of the camp asked and answered, and soon understood the movements of Dong Cheng's troops, and he once again confirmed that Dong Cheng's troops and horses were not strong because Dong Cheng, who led the troops, had no strong desire to attack, and began to arrange for the counterattack of Hu Chi'er's soldiers and horses in the east.

"Okay, there are many trees and flags and dummies in the south of the camp, only a small number of soldiers and horses are left to monitor Dong Cheng's department, and the rest of the soldiers and horses are all transferred to the east, so that Fei Lian is ready to go, just wait for my order, immediately take the lead out of the camp and charge the enemy to attack the enemy!"

When the camp defense was arranged before, the soldiers in the battalion already knew that Ganling wanted to use the strong camp fortifications to consume the enemy's superior strength and morale.

"In addition, the enemy in the east has taken turns to attack ineffectively, and intends to use the method of fire attack to break through the gate of our camp, we can seal the camp gate with carriages and earth and stones in advance, and then send foot soldiers to wait in the rear to prevent the enemy foot soldiers from moving away from the obstacles and breaking into the camp."

After arranging the counterattack, Ganling made defensive measures against the enemy's method of attacking the camp gate, and at this time, a military officer in charge of the cavalry in the battalion raised questions.

"Sima, if the camp gate is sealed inside, then once the battle is deadlocked, the soldiers and horses on both sides are attacking and defending at the camp gate, and our army will take the lead in counterattacking the enemy's cavalry outside the camp, where will the camp come out to surprise the enemy army?"

The camp where the army is stationed is located, the camp gate has always been set up in the flat terrain, the easiest place to project troops on a large scale, if the group of cavalry wants to pour out of the nest and kill the enemy, the camp gate is undoubtedly the most suitable camp point.

But now, according to the defensive arrangement of Ganling, the battalion sergeant first blocked the camp gate inside, and the cavalry who were on standby, and then wanted to go out of the camp to attack the enemy, they had to make a detour from the other camp gates, which was time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it was easy to be discovered by the soldiers and horses outside the camp, and it was difficult to play the original surprise attack effect of impacting the enemy's military formation when the soldiers and horses outside the camp were attacking.

After listening to the words of the military officer who led the cavalry, they also agreed and felt reasonable, and turned their heads to look at Ganling, who had arranged the war, to see how he arranged it.

Gan Ling looked around at the subordinate military officials around him and smiled confidently.

"I am about to stalemate in the battle, both sides of the soldiers and horses are attacking and defending at the camp gate, so our army secretly knocks down the fence and parapet wall here from the camp, surprise, and the cavalry who is ready to attack the enemy will take advantage of the situation to attack the enemy formation, and will be able to sweep the enemy in one fell swoop!"

Gan Ling smiled and pointed to a section of fence in the northeast corner and said, but after hearing Gan Ling's plan, the military officials around him were still taken aback.

If he sticks to the camp and attaches a small-scale counterattack, within a day or two, it will be extremely difficult for Hu Chi'er to storm and take the camp. However, if the whole army was assaulted according to the arrangement of Ganling, the soldiers and horses in the battalion would either be victorious or defeated.

Once the battle situation is unfavorable, even if the soldiers and horses can return to the camp in time, the soldiers and horses outside the camp who follow can also pass through the gap in the destroyed fence and parapet wall, and pursue and attack the camp.

At that time, the camp defense line in the east was broken through, and the camp defense line in the south was empty, and under the attack of the soldiers and horses outside the camp on both sides, the soldiers and horses in the camp had nothing to rely on, and how could they escape defeat.

Victory or defeat is different, and the military officials who cannot be present are not frightened.

Gan Ling naturally saw the horror of the soldiers around him, if he only wanted to deal with Hu Chi'er, he could adopt the tactics of defending, conservatively guard the camp, and quietly wait for Hu Chi'er's conspiracy to be revealed.

But what he wants to control now is the soldiers and horses of the entire Shaanxi County.

If he can't take the opportunity to solve these secret obstacles in the army that are stronger than himself, how can he take advantage of the situation to control Shaanxi County and Niufu!

Thinking of this, Gan Ling's eyes were sharp, and he stared closely at the military officials around him and said.

"Where there is a battlefield of war, where corpses stand, if you die, you will live, and if you are lucky, you will die. Therefore, Sun Tzu Youyun 'casts into the land of death and then survives, and falls into the place of death and then lives.' The husband is in harm's way, and then he can win or lose. ’。 ”

"Today, we are outnumbered, if we have the heart to survive, then the harm of the three armies will be established, and will be the courage of the soldiers, the use of strange soldiers, the commander hesitates, then the army will not move forward, I have decided, if the second and third sons are still fearful, you can stand here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gan Ling immediately made a move, pulled out his sword with a stab, and with a twist of his wrist, he pointed the tip of the long sword at an open space where no one was standing.

The light and cold of the long sword shone in the sunlight, and the military officials around him suddenly felt all the fierce momentum on Gan Ling's body, and some of the previous worries and fears seemed to disappear in a blink of an eye.

Ganling drew his sword for a while, and no one among the military officials came out.

Seeing this, he smiled and put his sword back into its sheath.

"Everyone is united, great things can be accomplished, and the second and third sons can obey the orders and follow me to achieve fame and wealth!"
