The night on the edge of the desert in June was still a little cool, the soldiers were crowded into the camp tent built, Zhao Ziliang was a little excited, he couldn't sleep, he had too many things to worry about, he thought about things in his head, and he had some gains and losses, but he knew that this state was not good, and if he didn't rest well, his spirit would be poor, and his poor spirit would cause his brain to run slowly, which was not good for the big war that was imminent, so he had to force himself to sleep, and hand over the task of patrolling the sentry and patrol to Sima Chen Qing.

Sleeping until midnight, Zhao Ziliang was suddenly woken up, "General, the outpost is back!" ”

Zhao Ziliang immediately woke up, pressed the sword and turned over, followed the oil lamp to see that it was a personal guard, rubbed his face and took a few deep breaths, and waved his hand to the guard: "Let him in!" ”

"No"

Zhao Ziliang sat down on the horse, and a knight walked in outside the tent, and when the knight saw him, he immediately clasped his fists and bowed down on one knee and said: "General Qiyu, General Xuanwu asked the little one to report, we have found out the situation of the Great Food Army in Henglus!" This is a sketch of the camp of the Great Food Army drawn by General Xuan Wu! As he spoke, he carefully took out a folded piece of rhubarb paper from his bosom and handed it over.

Zhao Ziliang took the yellow paper and spread it out on the desk, and the guards immediately took the oil lamp and put it aside, and Zhao Ziliang watched this rough sketch of Xuanwu's painting on the layout of the camp of the Great Food Army under the dim oil lamp.

This sketch, although sketched roughly, is very detailed. The camp of the Great Food Army is deployed on the east bank of Hengrus, near the river, the camp is connected to the pontoon bridge leading to the city of Hengrus, and the whole camp is in a zigzag, and the Chinese army and the Shuai tent are directly deployed on the river, at the top of the zigzag. On the left, that is, in the camp to the north, is the main force of the Great Food Army; On the right side, that is, to the south, is the camp of the servant army, the middle army, the main force and the servant army surround the prisoner camp, and it is not known for the time being the specific number of the main force of the Great Food Army and the number of the servant army, and it is also not clear how many prisoners there are in the prisoner camp.

Looking at the part of the sketch that was surrounded by the camp of the Great Food Army in a box with the prisoner camp written in it, Zhao Ziliang knew that he and his army were still late, and Gao Xianzhi had already been defeated!

After looking at the map, Zhao Ziliang looked up at the sentry and asked, "Does Xuan Wu have anything else to say to the general?" ”

The sentry hugged his fists and said: "Yes, General Xuanwu asked the villain to tell the general, judging from the investigation, the corpses, weapons and armor of our Tang army are everywhere within a radius of dozens of miles east of the camp of the Great Food Army, as well as a large amount of grain and grass discarded, that is to say, General Gao Xianzhi's army has been defeated, as for whether General Gao Xianzhi is now safe or captured by the Great Food Army, it is not known for the time being, but we caught a few of the tongues of the Great Food Army, and after interrogation, we learned that General Gao Xianzhi was defeated the day before yesterday, Our army pursued and killed countless people, and the number of captured people was even more innumerable. Now two days have passed, and the battlefield has not been completely cleaned in the place of battle, and the Great Food Army has not had time to clean up the corpses, weapons, armor and a large number of baggage in the place of battle. ”

Just now Zhao Ziliang just guessed that Gao Xianzhi had been defeated, he was late, and now he heard the news of Gao Xianzhi's defeat with his own ears, he still couldn't bear such bad news in his heart, you must know that Gao Xianzhi brought out the entire Anxi military force this time, and also brought 20,000 soldiers belonging to Beiting, this defeat can be described as a huge blow to the entire Anxi's military strength, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as an extremely heavy loss, at least within two or three years, it will not be able to restore the previous strength at all.

With his fists clenched, it took Zhao Ziliang a long time to calm down, and he instructed the detective who reported the news: "You go back and tell Xuan Wu that he has two things to do: first, send someone to the east to investigate the news to see if there is an Anxi army breaking out, and if so, where is this army now!" If you find out the news, report it immediately! Second, now that the Great Food Army has just won a big victory, they definitely can't imagine that there are enemies around, so the defense will be a lot lax, and there are definitely not many ranger outposts in charge of vigilance, even if there are, the range of activities will not be too large, you tell Xuan Wu, don't move these ranger outposts before the morning, and when the morning comes, immediately clean up all the ranger outposts in the direction of our army, but no one will be allowed to escape back, if the Great Food Army relaxes its vigilance because of the big victory and does not arrange a vigilant ranger, it will be better! ”

The sentry hugged his fists and said: "Understand, the little one must tell General Xuanwu!" ”

"Well, you can eat something and go immediately!"

"No!"

After sending away the outpost, Zhao Ziliang pondered for a moment in the big tent, then turned around and shouted outside the tent: "Come on, go and find Bai Xiaode!" ”

"No!" The guards outside the tent promised that someone would leave, and usually when Zhao Ziliang said that he was looking for someone to come, he must see him immediately, so the guards did not dare to delay.

In less than a cup of tea, Bai Xiaode walked in neatly dressed, hugged his fists and said, "General, are you looking for me?" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and asked, "Bai Xiaode, do you remember the time when we went to the Great Food Country to greet Princess Hera, did the Great Cannibal have a habit of praying several times a day?" ”

Bai Xiaode said: "Yes, this will be remembered very clearly, and it was quite strange at the time, so he paid special attention to the captured Great Food Army, and they had to pray five times a day!" ”

Zhao Ziliang pondered for a while and asked, "Then do you remember what time and at what point they started praying in the morning?" ”

Bai Xiaode scratched his cheeks, thought for a while and said: "It should be the hour, but it's not clear which point it is, but it should be the second dawn of dawn until before sunrise, and it must be done before sunrise!" We also have tens of thousands of food captives in Xilin, and they do the same! ”

Zhao Ziliang calculated, it is now June, and the time of dawn is earlier than that of spring, autumn and winter, about half past five in the morning, it will begin to dawn at about five and a half, and it will dawn at about five forty o'clock, but the sunrise will not be until six o'clock, which means that the morning prayer time of the great cannibal should be before five forty-five to six o'clock, and there is only a quarter of an hour in between.

At this time, Bai Xiaode saw the rough floor plan on the desk, walked over and took a closer look, and immediately found that this was the plan of the camp of the Great Food Army, and he immediately asked: "General, the scout cavalry has already figured out the situation of the Great Food Army?" What happened to the Anxi Army? ”

Zhao Ziliang came back to his senses and said with a gloomy expression: "Yes, the Anxi army was defeated, and it was a fiasco, we are late!" ”

Bai Xiaode was also sad when he heard this, although he was from Qiuci, but Qiuci belonged to the Tang Dynasty a hundred years ago, and he had already regarded himself as a Tang man, and he was still from the Anxi Army, and now that the Anxi Army was defeated, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

After a long time, Zhao Ziliang stabilized his mood and comforted: "Don't worry, although we are late, it is not too late, according to the sentinels, many people in the Anxi Army have been captured, and now they are locked up in the camp of the Great Food Army, we still have a chance to defeat the Great Food Army and rescue these captured Anxi Army!" ”

Bai Xiaode nodded, remembering that Zhao Ziliang had just asked him about the Great Cannibal having a morning prayer, so he asked, "The general plans to use the habit of the Great Cannibal to perform the morning prayer every morning to launch a surprise attack on them?" ”

Zhao Ziliang nodded and said: "Yes, the Great Food Army has just gone through a big victory, and now they must have slackened, our army's outpost has approached their camp, and they have not found it, so they must be negligent in their defense!" This is a good opportunity given to us by God, this is still forty miles away from the camp of the Great Food Army, and General Ben has decided that the army will make a fire to make food tomorrow, and set off at the end of the day, as long as they arrive near the north of the camp of the Great Food Army before the hour, and wait for them to launch a surprise attack when they have a morning prayer! Go back and rest first, and be mentally prepared! ”

"No!"

After Bai Xiaode left, Zhao Ziliang immediately told the guards that he would wake up the men and men when they were ugly, let them get up and cook when they were ugly, and wake up the whole army to eat together in half an hour, and after eating, they would march to the camp of the Great Food Army.

In fact, the cooking speed of the men and the eating speed of the soldiers was much less than Zhao Ziliang expected, and at three o'clock, the whole army finished eating, and in order to let the soldiers digest the food as much as possible, Zhao Ziliang still delayed for another half an hour before ordering the whole army to set off.

On the way to the camp of the Great Food Army, in order to maintain the physical strength of the soldiers as much as possible, Zhao Ziliang deliberately reduced the speed of the march, and arrived at about two minutes north of the camp of the Great Food Army.

Xuan Wuce came to see Zhao Ziliang and reported: "General, all the big cannibals in the camp of the Great Food Army have gotten up and are ready to make a collective morning prayer, and the sentry posts and sentry posts of the Great Food Army facing the direction of our army have all been cleaned up by the last general and his subordinates!" ”

Although the mounts that the soldiers sat on still retained considerable physical strength, Zhao Ziliang still ordered: "All the soldiers change horses, tie the horses' mouths, and no one is allowed to make a noise before the battle, otherwise they will be killed!" ”

The order was quickly delivered, and everyone changed into a war horse without riding, and tied the horse's mouth with a cloth belt to prevent them from neighing, and the army slowed down and slowly approached the camp of the Great Food Army.

At this time, the sky had begun to dawn, and when the army quietly arrived at the camp of the Great Food Army, the Great Food Army was kneeling on the ground and praying in a neat queue in the camp.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Ziliang hesitated, and immediately took out the golden nail jujube yang lance and instructed several generals around him: "Everyone will follow the general to kill the main camp of the Great Food Army, and then Xuan Er and Xuan San will take the first battalion and the second battalion to the capture camp to defeat the guarded Great Food Army and rescue the captured our army and soldiers; Bai Xiaode and Fugu Huaien took the third and fourth battalions to attack the camp of the Great Food Servant Army, and the other battalions followed General Ben to attack the camp of the Great Food Army, do you understand? ”

"Understood!"

"Okay, all the soldiers will kill me-"

"Kill—"

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and soon mingled into a rumbling sound, like thunder, and the ground shook violently, and the soldiers and generals of the Great Food Army who were praying heard or felt the movement, and they couldn't help but turn their heads to look north, only to find a large black torrent rushing over.

"It's the Tang Army, it's the Tang Army・・・・・・ go get the weapons, go and lead the horses・・・・・・" The sharp-eyed big food soldier immediately let out a terrible cry after seeing the figure of the army rushing over.

The entire main camp of the Great Food Army was immediately in chaos, and the soldiers and generals immediately looked for their own weapons and horses, but at this time it was too late, and the Tang cavalry that rushed to the front directly knocked down the wooden fence used for protection, and the Tang army clashes in the camp like a black torrent, and the massacre is officially staged.
