Chapter 303: A Light Night Raid

On the night of November 8, 426 of the Great Jin Dynasty, in a tent in the camp of the army of Gaochang State and the army of Xuju State outside the north gate of Lanbao City, Mi Sisa, the commander of Gaochang State, said to Dong Sheng, the king of Xuju State, with a gloomy face: "I see that this group of Jin people in Lanbao City has no sincerity to release Her Highness the Holy Maiden and Viscount Hanatilamu, and they are just delaying time.

Dong Sheng, the king of the Suju Kingdom, nodded and then sighed and said: "This group of Jin people actually asked us to take out three million taels of gold before releasing them, it is simply a lion's mouth, even if we empty the treasury of the Suju Kingdom, we will not be able to raise this astronomical ransom!" ”

Dong Ming, the city lord of Xia Luo City next to him, frowned at this time and said, "Then what should we do next?" Her Royal Highness the Holy Flame Sect and Viscount Hanatilamu are still in the hands of this group of Jin people, if we storm Lanbao City, if this group of Jin people does anything unfavorable to Her Highness the Holy Maiden and Viscount Hanatilamu, we will not be able to get out of it. ”

Misa sighed and said: "I have sent someone to Talas City to report the matter of Ranburg City to the Governor's Mansion and the Holy Fire Cult, and I have also sent someone to ask for help from the Muhimmeni Legion Commander of Zhuqi Country, what we can do now is to wait patiently, this matter is no longer up to us, we just need not let this group of Jin people escape from Ranburg City with Her Highness the Holy Maiden and Viscount Hanatilam, and we can also be regarded as having an explanation to the Governor's Mansion and the Holy Fire Sect." ”

Zhuqi country is only about 250 miles away from Suju country, and the entire Zhuqi country is also composed of a large oasis, but the area of Zhuqi country is much larger than that of Suju country, almost 20,000 square kilometers, with a population of 2.3 million, and it is also a vassal country of Gaochang State, and the army of Gaochang State has 40,000 troops stationed in Zhuqi country, and the commander of these 40,000 troops is the commander of the legion Muhemini.

The legion is the largest unit in the army of the Western Regions, with several or more than a dozen 10,000 troops under its jurisdiction.

There are a total of 28 vassal states in the jurisdiction of the Eastern Governor of Gaochang Kingdom, and Zhu Qi is the strongest military force among the 28 vassal states, with a total population of only 2.3 million, but with 250,000 troops, and the combat effectiveness of its army is also very strong, Zhu Qi is also one of the sixteen subject states of the Great Jin Dynasty in the Western Regions more than 100 years ago.

Hearing that Missa said that he had sent people to Talas City, and sent people to ask for help from the Gaochang army stationed in Zhuqi Kingdom, Dong Sheng, the king of Suju Kingdom, and Dong Ming, the city lord of Xialuo City, glanced at each other, and they both showed a look of relief, after all, the fact that the Holy Flame Sect's holy daughter and the son of Haner Apdu, the Eastern Governor of Gaochang Kingdom, was kidnapped was too big for them to carry in Suju Kingdom.

Compared to the abduction of these two big shots, the occupation of Lanbao City by the Jin army is simply insignificant.

Dong Sheng, the king of Suju Kingdom, immediately said: "It's still Baron Missa's proper arrangement, we ......"

Before Dong Sheng's words were finished, suddenly a scream came from outside the tent, followed by a deafening shout of killing, which made Mi Sisa, Dong Sheng, Dong Ming, and the other two commanders of Gao Changguo, as well as several generals of the army of Suju Kingdom, their faces all changed greatly, and they quickly rushed out of the tent.

When these generals of Gaochang and Xuju rushed out of the tent and found that countless Jin soldiers had broken into the camp, and the soldiers of their two countries were killed in a chaotic manner, these generals of Gaochang and Xuju quickly gathered soldiers from various countries, hoping to repel the sneak attack of the Jin army.

Liu Ji learned that there was a secret passage leading to the outside of the city in the Castle Lord's Mansion, so he immediately gathered all the generals and discussed it, and decided to use this secret passage to raid the enemy's camp outside the city at night.

The raiding team consisted of Dian Wei, Gao Chong, Wu Yunzhao, Du Ning, Xiao Feng, Luo Kun, Deng Yu, Wu Han, Jia Fu, and Kou Sui, a total of ten generals, and six hundred Wei soldiers.

Of the 900 Wei soldiers Liu Ji drew from the system, only three were killed in the process of capturing Lanbao City, so there are currently 897 Wei soldiers.

Liu Ji sent 600 Wei soldiers, and there were only nearly 300 Wei soldiers left in Lanbao City, as well as more than 40 soldiers trapped in the camp, but Liu Ji was not worried about the safety of Lanbao City.

The vast majority of the 60,000 or 70,000 people in Lanbao City fled from the Great Jin Dynasty, and they still recognized Liu Ji's army, even if it was the original Suju people in Lanbao City, they were no different from the Jin people, and they had no hostility towards Liu Ji, the Jin army.

Even the 1,500 soldiers of the Suju Kingdom who surrendered in Lanbao City did not have much hostility towards Liu Ji's Jin army, and if it wasn't too late in time, Liu Ji was ready to incorporate these 1,500 soldiers of the Suju Kingdom.

The three thousand-man cavalry teams of Gaochang State outside Lanbao City were nominally 3,000 cavalry, but in fact there were only more than 2,200 people, and the 3,000 cavalry of Suju State was a real battle.

In order to prevent the Jin people in Lanbao from escaping, Mi Sisa, the commander of Gaochang State, asked Dong Sheng, the king of Xuju State, to send 500 cavalry of Xuju State to the east, south and west of Lanbao City, and the main force of Gaochang State army and Xuju State army was stationed outside the north gate of Lanbao City.

The secret passage leading to the outside of the city in the Ranburg City Lord's Mansion is in the south of Ranburg City, but the ten generals and six hundred Wei soldiers under Liu Ji did not choose to sneak attack the five hundred Suju cavalry outside the south gate of Lanbao City, but took a detour to the north gate of Lanbao City, and directly launched a night attack on the main force of the Gaochang army and the Suju army.

The process of the night attack can be said to be very smooth, the army of Gaochang and the army of Xuju did not expect to be attacked at all, the raiding team easily controlled thousands of horses in the enemy's camp at the beginning, and then the time of two incense sticks, the raid team solved the three cavalry thousand teams of Gaochang State outside the north gate of Lanbao City, as well as the 1,500 cavalry of Xuju State, the reason why it was so easy was also related to the strong combat effectiveness of the Wei soldiers.

The three commanders of the Gaochang Kingdom, including Missa, were all killed in the night attack, more than 2,200 Gaochang cavalry, nearly 1,000 died in the melee, and more than 1,000 were taken prisoner, only more than 100 Gaochang cavalry, who lost their horses, took advantage of the chaos and fled.

Dong Sheng, the king of the Suju Kingdom, and his younger brother, Dong Ming, the lord of Xia Luo City, were both captured alive, and 1,200 of the 1,500 cavalry of the Suju Kingdom surrendered obediently, and only about 300 died in the chaos.
