It was late at night.

He Chongbao stood in front of the camp gate, looking at the direction of Jianzhou from afar, with a heavy face.

Behind him were the elite of the 20,000 Liao army, the palace tent forbidden army, the leather room army; Farther away, there are also the 30,000 princes of Xi Wang Xiao Ximo's army.

Among them, there is the elite of the elite of the Liao army - two thousand armored cavalry composed of Xi people.

For a long time, the Khitan and Xi people jointly held the power of the Liao State.

However, the Khitan Yelu clan is the imperial clan, the Xi people Xiao clan is the descendant clan, the Khitan is the main family, the Xi people are supplemented, and for more than a hundred years, in the end, the Khitan people are not as good as the Xi people can fight.

Therefore, these two thousand armored cavalry formed by the best of the Xi warriors can be said to represent the highest force of the Liao State!

But even so, in the face of the enemies under the city of Jianzhou, he was unspeakably uneasy in his heart.

The Jurchen soldiers are too strong, and there are too many shameful defeats for them.

This time, for some reason, the Jurchen barbarians tore up the oath less than three months after the two sides negotiated peace, and killed from the direction of Yizhou to the city of Jianzhou with great momentum.

It's so fast, it's staggering!

It was almost at the beginning of the hour that he received an urgent military message from Xingzhong Province about the invasion of the Jurchen Treacherous Alliance; Subsequently, at the seventh quarter of the unitary hour, he received information about Jianzhou City asking for help.

A thousand Liao army light cavalry actually fought in the wilderness, and the cavalry and shooting melee could not kill 400 Jurchen light cavalry kidnappers and horses, this information had already made him stunned and couldn't believe it.

But then, just over a moment later, he once again received an urgent military report from Jianzhou City, and the main force of the Jurchen cavalry had already arrived under Jianzhou City!

This means that from the Jurchen barbarian soldiers under the city of Zhongfu to the soldiers under the city of Jianzhou, the interval is only three hours.

And the distance between the two places is a hundred miles, and such a long distance is only enough time for the march in three hours.

In other words, this group of Jurchen barbarians almost didn't stay in Xingzhong Mansion, and they killed all the way to Jianzhou City.

He Chongbao knew that the Cave Immortal Squire would not surrender the city, so there were only two possibilities.

First, the Jurchen barbarians easily defeated the Xingzhong Mansion; The second is that the Jurchen barbarians had sufficient troops for this invasion, and they divided their troops to surround Xingzhong Mansion.

But no matter what the situation is, it is enough to prove that the speed and combat effectiveness of this Jurchen attack are terrifying!

It is precisely because of this that He Chongbao immediately ordered to stop the advance, giving up the plan to rush to Jianzhou City overnight, but stayed in place and waited for the 30,000 troops of King Xi Xiao Ximo to come and join him.

But even so, he was still full of worries about tomorrow's battle.

After all, the name of the person, the shadow of the tree, and the achievements of the Jurchens are really there, and now the sudden killing is enough to make the Liao army feel a fear that goes deep into the bone marrow.

"Brother, the two of us have already inspected the camps in various places, the secret sentry on the road has also been arranged, and the scouts have also been sent out, as long as the Jurchen barbarians dare to come, they will be hit on the head and bleed!"

The sound of footsteps came, but it was He Chongbao's two brothers, the eldest brother He Jie and the younger brother He Yun patrolled and arranged work to come back to life.

I listened to He Yun and said: "Brother, third brother, if you want me to say, this Jurchen barbarian is not beaten by iron, and he marches a hundred miles in half a day, even if their people are all savages, with iron bodies, the war horses can't stand it, and they will definitely not attack tonight!"

If you want me to say that the two elder brothers should rest early, and there will be a big battle tomorrow, let the younger brother come to the vigil, and there will be no problems with the integrity! ”

He Chongbao shook his head: "You two don't know, but I'm not worried about the Jurchen coming back tonight for a night attack, but I'm worried about tomorrow's battle."

Now that our light cavalry has lost the advantage of being far away, I don't dare to send a large group of scouts to Jianzhou to investigate, and I don't know how many soldiers and horses the Jurchen barbarians have come this time? Sad, ......"

I only listened to He Jiedao: "Brother is the best at setting up ambushes, why not lure the Jurchen barbarians to attack and introduce them into a narrow terrain, and then our soldiers and horses plus the army of King Xi at the end of Xia suddenly killed, and their soldiers and horses were rushed into a few sections, and surrounded by groups?" ”

He Chongbao frowned and said, "You mean not to save Jianzhou City?" ”

He Jiedao: "Jianzhou City is a small city (a small city is easier to defend, because it is difficult for the defenders of a big city to spread their troops all over the city wall, and the attacker can choose the weak point to focus on breaking through), and the city is strong, it is not a problem to hold on for ten days and a month, let alone one day?"

Besides, as long as we can eliminate the main force of the Jurchen barbarians, the siege of Jianzhou City will be naturally resolved. ”

He Yun's eyes lit up and said, "This method is good!" Brother, there is not a place to go not far ahead, called the lower cave ditch, this ditch has only one way in, there are high mountains on all sides, and there is no way to live.

The younger brother is willing to be the vanguard tomorrow, leading the troops to lead this group of Jurchen barbarians to the outside of this ditch, and the soldiers and horses of the elder brother and Xi Wang Xiamo suddenly killed outside, drove them into the ditch, and surrounded them with heavy soldiers, so that this guy has no way out, no retreat, and will inevitably starve to death. ”

"Good, good, good! The two brothers said like a cloud, and they suddenly opened their ......"

Hearing the two brothers say this, He Chongbao's heart suddenly brightened, and he said three good things in a row.

The three brothers discussed it for a while, and they all thought that the plan was simply too good.

A stone in He Chongbao's heart finally fell to the ground, and soon said goodbye to the two brothers, returned to the Chinese army's tent to rest, and He Jie's also returned to his camp, leaving only He Yun on duty at night.

Time passed quickly, and half an hour later, a waning moon had risen to midheaven, and midnight had arrived.

Just when most of the people in the whole camp had fallen asleep, and most of the guards on duty at night were also drowsy, outside the camp, with a few cuckoo calls, a dozen black shadows quietly climbed up from the grass.

I saw that these black shadows were all wearing camouflage green clothes like fishing nets, and they were all wearing hoods on their heads, and their faces were painted with green oil paint.

In this disguise, if they were lying still on their stomachs or squatting in the bushes, the people around them would not know that there were so many living people here.

These dozen people were Wu Song, Shi Qian, and Ma Ling sent by Lin Chong, as well as the twelve most elite spies and special operations personnel of the Liangshan Army under the command of the three of them.

And Lin Chong sent them here, naturally to carry out tasks such as infiltration and sabotage behind enemy lines, night attacks, and decapitation missions.

Compared with Shi Wengong's rapid march and night attack, such a night attack by special forces is naturally much more efficient.

With a few simple sign language movements, fifteen black shadows sneaked into the camp like ghosts under the leadership of Wu Song, Shi Qian, and Ma Ling.

Soon after, the whole camp burst into flames.
