Chapter 17: The three guards robbed the enemy camp
At noon on the third day, the Malay newspaper reported that a large number of Bolun soldiers appeared in the southeast of the city of Bolun. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć info Qin Feng and a group of people climbed the city wall to check, and saw that a mile away, was there indeed a group of people stationed. And he saw the wave of men and horses galloping out of a hundred horses, coming toward the city of Bolun.
"Lord Captain, is this the centaur of King Bolun? How did you come so early? I also estimate that it will take him ten days to get here anyway when he gathers his men!" Qin Feng asked.
Meng Xin looked at it and said: "Chief, this is not the man of the king of Bolun, looking at its banner, it should be the man of the city lord of Mengsa!"
"Oh! Who is Mensa"?
"The city of Mensa is the closest city-state to the city of the king of Bolun, it is not a big city, the people in the city are about 30,000, and the soldiers and horses are up to 5,000.
Meng Jing thought for a while and said, "I know! It must be that the king of Pollon promised him a great profit, and told him that our army is less than a thousand, and that he could not rush to come"?
Meng Jing was right, the king of Bolun Assam lost the royal city, and the soldiers and horses were lost, so he could only send people to the city of Mengsa, promising that after retaking the royal city, all the property in the city would belong to Mengsa. He also said that the Qin army had less than 1,000 people, and he was caught off guard before losing the city, and as long as Mengsa raised the whole city, it would be easy to recapture the city of Bolun.
Mengsa didn't believe it very much, and when he heard the Bolun people who were driven out of the royal city say that the Qin army really only had a few hundred people, he put his mind at ease and took 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 infantry troops in Mengsa City, and urgently recruited 3,000 men in the city as an army, a total of 8,000 people were killed to the Bolun King City, so he was afraid that he would be too late and be preempted by others.
This Mensa didn't really help Assam recapture the royal city, he thought to himself, you Assam soldiers and horses have been lost, why should I work for you? If I take back the city of Bolun, then it will be mine, how can I give it back to you? At that time, he will occupy the two city-states of Bolun and Mengsa, and he will be promoted to the king of Bolun!
The cavalry horses were fast, and when they reached the outside of Bolun, they set up camp first, and as soon as the infantry arrived, they began to attack the city in full force. Just let the untouchables in the city know who they are! Therefore, Mensa sent a hundred centaurs to the city of Bolun to shout, if those untouchables saw that they were powerful, opened the city and surrendered, and the soldiers took the city of Bolun without blood, wouldn't it be better!
I saw that this centaur team arrived at the foot of Bolun City, and the first Bolun officer said a lot, Qin Feng couldn't understand it, and turned his head to ask Meng Jing what he said.
Meng Jingqiang couldn't help laughing: "Captain Zuo, he said that he came on the order of the Mengsa army, let us open the city and surrender quickly, otherwise thousands of troops will attack the city with all their strength tomorrow, and there will not be a living person in the city at that time!"
Sima jumped up directly when he heard it: "Damn! It's so rampant! Isn't he stupid? Tens of thousands of Qin people in our city, relying on his thousands of people, still want to attack the city"?
Meng Jing said with a smile: "Third brother, he is not stupid, but he doesn't know the details of our army, how does he know the truth in the city, not only him, but only the king of Bolun, until now, I thought that our Qin army only had a few hundred people"!
Qin Feng understood everything at this time, and he almost couldn't straighten up with a smile: "These Ah San are really cute!" Big brother, when you reply to him, just say that we only have an enmity with King Pollon, and it is not Mengsa's business! Beg him not to attack the city! In short, we must speak cowardly words, so that he thinks that we are not strong, and he is very afraid of him"!
After Meng Jing said what Qin Feng meant, the Bolun officer laughed, chirped again, and went back to the camp.
Meng Xin saw that Qin Feng had a plan, and hurriedly asked, "Zuo Shuchang, what are your plans?"
Qin Feng was still smiling, and it was easy to stop laughing: "They worked hard to send war horses and ordnance, our army can't do without it!" It is estimated that they are waiting for the infantry army to come, and then join forces to attack the city! We will teach them the simplest trick of our Qin people, robbing the camp"!
The generals laughed.
Qin Feng continued: "Let Tanma continue to find out the reality of the enemy army, if the cavalry infantry adds up to more than five thousand, then this Mengsa will be out of the nest!" The city of Tamensa is an empty city. When the time comes, wouldn't it be better for us not only to rob the camp, but also to take and destroy the city of Mensa, and let him be a pair of lost dogs with King Pollon!"
In the evening, the soldiers and horses of Mengsa gathered around the original camp and set up a large camp.
Tanma reported that the Mensa army had 8,000, of which about 2,000 were cavalry, and the rest were all infantry troops, and there were some siege equipment.
Qin Feng patted the table when he listened: "Okay!" This Mensa has moved our house for us! The congregation will listen to the command"!
"Sima Zhi, with you leading 3,000 cavalry, at the third watch tonight, attack the Mengsa camp, just rush and kill! When the enemy army is defeated and retreats, nothing else will be done, just chase after Mengsa and follow him to take his city of Mengsa! Speaking of this, Qin Feng smiled: "After taking Mengsar City, collect money and grain, move all the people in the city out, and then burn Mengsar City for me with a fire!"
The other generals all knew how terrible Qin Feng was when he was ruthless, and it was not strange to hear this military order. Li Qubing had just come and didn't know much, but when he saw Qin Feng ordering the city to be burned, he hurriedly asked, "Chief Zuo, why did you burn the city?" Wouldn't it be better for our troops to be stationed"?
Qin Feng glanced at Li Quai's illness and patiently explained: "Lord Li, our army has few soldiers, and it is not easy to hold Bolun, so I really have no strength to divide the troops into Mengza!" There are two reasons for the burning of the city, one is that the Bolun army will counterattack in a big way, and Mengsa will be the place where they gather, this city is close to the city of Bolun, and the grain and grass and ordnance will be used as a transit in this city, and our army will burn the city of Mensa, and it will be extremely difficult for them to transport and assemble the grain, grass and ordnance at that time, and the siege of Bolun City will not last"!
"Second?" At this time, Li Quzhi had already agreed to the decision to burn the city.
Qin Feng smiled coldly: "Second, I will use this fire to tell the Bolun people that what will happen if you go against my Qin army!"
When the generals present heard these words, they all applauded: "Praise"!
Seeing that the generals had no objections, Qin Feng continued to give orders: "Meng Jing listened to the order and ordered you to lead 1,500 cavalry, more banners, and more torches, and wait for Sima to directly attack the Mengsa camp, follow closely behind, wave the flag and shout, burn its camp, so that the Mengsa army can't guess how many men and horses our army has!" It's better to make him think that we have tens of thousands of iron riders! When you arrive in the city of Mensa, you don't have to go into the city, you only have to take action outside the city! Then cooperate with Sima Zhi and come back with money and food together"!
Qin Feng looked at Meng Xin, and his tone changed to a gentle tone: "Lord Duwei, you lead the 5,000 infantry army, and after the Mengsa army is defeated and retreats, go out of the city to kill the remnants of the army, and collect war horses and ordnance!"
Li Quai's illness saw that all the generals had military orders, and hurriedly asked, "Chief Zuo, what about me?"
Qin Feng smiled: "Lord Li, you and I have many flags on the city wall, and when the time comes, we must make the enemy soldiers cold and dare not fight!"
All the generals took orders and went down to prepare.
It was the third watch of the night, and the gates of Pollon were quietly opened. Sima Zhi took three thousand iron horsemen and slaughtered towards the Mengsa military camp.
From the beginning to the end, the Mengsa army thought that there were only a few hundred untouchables in Bolun City, and who would have expected that such a small number of them would dare to rob the camp at night, so they did not even ride a horse on a sentry.
The three thousand iron horsemen rushed all the way to the camp without hindrance, and by this time it was too late to find out. Before the soldiers on duty could warn, they were shot dead by the Qin army. Then Sima raised the lance in his hand and shouted: "Kill"! The three thousand iron horsemen were like three thousand tigers, rushing into the camp of Mengsa, rampage, as if entering a no-man's land.
Meng Jing, who followed closely, led a thousand iron horsemen to randomly attack, raising fire and shouting while waving flags. The sleeping Mensa army was defenseless and could barely put up any resistance.
After being awakened by the shouts of killing, Mensa gave orders again and again to organize a counterattack. But at this time, there was already a great chaos in the camp, only to see flames everywhere, Qin soldiers everywhere, and heard that inside the camp, the sound of the Qin army shouting and killing shook the sky, and there were also bursts of shouting and killing in Nabolun City.
In addition, in the Mengsa army, there were still 3,000 ordinary people who had just been recruited, they had never been through a battle, and as soon as the Qin army rushed into the camp, they were in chaos first, and they scattered and fled for their lives. Rushed by them, the Mengsa army was not yet rushed by the Qin army, and was rushed by their own people.
Seeing this, several relatives persuaded Mensa to get out of danger quickly, and Mensa shouted: "Assam! You lied to me! Is this hundreds of untouchables"!
At this moment, I could only hear the sound of horses' hooves in the southeast, and from a distance, a group of men and horses were rushing quickly. Mengsa was overjoyed when he saw it: "Reinforcements! Reinforcements are coming"!
Meng Jing and Sima were shocked when they saw a Puma team coming from the southeast, neither of them expected that the Mengsa army would have reinforcements. Sima Zhi said to Meng Jing: "Big brother, you are here, I will take a thousand cavalry to meet him"! After speaking, he shouted: "Brothers! Kill me with me!" With a thousand iron horsemen, he went to kill the Puma team.
Qin Feng and the others above the city tower were also startled when they saw another Puma team coming to the southeast. Attacking the camp late at night is expensive, and the most important thing is to avoid the attenuation of momentum. If the enemy comes to help at this time, it does not need too much, even if it is 500, the morale of the enemy army will inevitably be greatly boosted, and then the two sides will fall into a fierce battle, and the purpose of attacking the camp will be frustrated.
Meng Xin looked at the horse team in the distance, and was anxious: "Zuo Shuchang, what should I do?" Or will it go!"
Qin Feng looked at the group of people and horses and was also worried: "Lord Duwei, there are only infantry in the city, even if you go now, it's too late, let's take a look!" I always felt that there could be no reinforcements in Mensa at this time"!
Besides, Sima Zhi met the head with a thousand iron horsemen and horses, shouted, and was about to rush to kill with a lance. I only heard one of the other party shouting: "Zhi'er"! It was clearly the voice of his father Sima Li.
Sima Zhida was overjoyed: "Ah Da! He shouted, but he didn't have time to say anything else, but turned his horse's head and shouted, "Brothers! It's my Qin Jun here! Kill me back to the Mensa camp! Kill Mensa"! With a thousand iron horsemen, he rushed to the camp of Mengsa.
Although Sima Li didn't know what the situation was at this time, he had been in battle for a long time, and he was very spicy, so he immediately raised his sword in his hand: "Sharp soldiers! Kill me!" With five hundred iron horsemen, he followed his son and slaughtered him to the camp of Mengsa.
Qin Feng and the others on the city wall watched Sima Zhi and the gang of men and horses join forces from a distance, and knew that this must be Sima Li, and the big stone in their hearts was finally put down.
Qin Feng looked at Meng Xin: "Lord Duwei, you can go out of the city to kill the remnants of the army!"
Besides, Mensa had gathered more than 1,000 troops at this time, and was fighting hard to resist step by step, just waiting for the reinforcements to arrive, he could not only escape, but also turn defeat into victory and take the opportunity to take the city of Bolun.
Unexpectedly, the Malay report was that those people were also Qin troops, not their own reinforcements, and Meng Sa was shocked when he heard it: "How come?" How can it be? How can these untouchables have so many cavalry"?
At this time, Sima Li's father and son had already killed in the camp, and the more than 1,000 Mengsa troops who had been assembled were repeatedly charged and killed by thousands of Qin army iron cavalry, and there was nothing left.
Seeing that the general situation had gone, Mengsa hurriedly took his personal escorts, tangled up hundreds of remnants, and rushed towards Mengsa City.
Sima Zhizhi ran away from Mengsa and shouted: "Brothers! Follow me! Mo ran away from Mensa"! With 3,000 iron horsemen from the headquarters, he chased after Mengsa and killed him.
On the way back from Qincheng, Sima Li was in a state of indignation, how could he fall behind in such a big battle at this time, and he also led the five hundred cavalry of his headquarters to chase and kill Mengsa.
Meng Jing also followed Qin Feng's military order, and after some rushing and killing, he saw that his father had already led the infantry army, and he didn't have time to say a word, so he shouted: "Sharp soldiers! Kill me to the city of Mensa"! With a thousand iron horsemen, he galloped towards the city of Mengsa.
Meng Xin took 5,000 soldiers to surround the camp and slaughter again, and then began to collect war horses and ordnance.
Qin Feng and Li Quai, who were on the city wall, laughed loudly when they saw the great victory in this battle.
Tens of thousands of Qin people in the city saw this victory in their eyes, and they all smiled happily, and the women opened fire and cooked one by one, preparing the army to come back and reward what they needed.
