Chapter 222: Mistakes

Xiang Luyang led 50,000 cavalry, less than a mile away from Xing Jiamu's camp, and had been in ambush for nearly half an hour, and in this half hour, Xiang Luyang had already figured out all the situations in Xing Jiamu's camp.

At this time, in addition to the lights in the big tent, the other camp tents, except for those on night duty, have all turned off the lights, with the light of the torches outside the tent, Xiang Luyang roughly calculated the number of people on duty today, today Xing Jiamu's entire camp, standing guard and patrolling, all counted, adding up to only more than 1,000 people.

Now they are charging over, and when they rush to the camp, those who are sleeping may not even have time to put on their clothes.

After waiting for another stick of incense, Xiang Luyang saw that the time was ripe, and he was the first to jump on horseback, and with a wave of the copper gong in his right hand, 50,000 cavalry rushed towards Xing Jiamu's military camp.

Although the hooves of all Xiang Luyang's cavalry were wrapped in cotton cloth and ran without any sound, because 50,000 cavalry were running at the same time, the shaking of the earth attracted the attention of the soldiers standing guard.

Just as he was about to open his mouth to ask his companion what was going on, Xiang Luyang's army had already come to the front, kill! Xiang Luyang shouted, and rushed into Xing Jiamu's camp with people.

At this time, Xing Jiamu was not in his own camp, but on the way to the Changzhi barracks, he couldn't wait for a moment now, and if he delayed a little longer, there might be more accidents, so after ordering someone to bury Chen Yucheng, Xing Jiamu asked He Yue to hypnotize Sikong Hai for the second time, and then gave him some Liu Minghan's poison, so he took Sikong Hai, Xing Jiamu, Gao Han Song, He Yue and a hundred dead soldiers, and went to the Changzhi barracks overnight.

Xing Jiamu and the others were on the way to the Changzhi barracks, and when they were halfway there, they suddenly heard a shout of killing from the direction of their camp.

Looking back at the blazing camp, Lu Zhiyong said to Xing Jiamu: "It seems that our camp has been attacked, should we go back and take a look." ”

Xing Jiamu said: "Don't worry about him, let's continue to hurry, if the defenders of Changzhi think that we have a conflict with Sikong Hai, it will be troublesome." ”

When this group of people ran towards Changzhi, because they were in too much hurry, they didn't pay attention to the grass on the side of the road, and there was an ambush of a group of people and horses, although the number of people in this group was small, but it was not a problem to deal with more than 100 of them, but the strange thing was that when Xing Jiamu and others passed by, these people did not move, but continued to hide on the side of the road.

It turned out that this group of people was Hu Jinquan who came to dig a trap, they had just arrived here, and before they could start moving, they heard the sound of horses' hooves behind them, and after the commander hid, Hu Jinquan carefully pondered whether he wanted to stop this group of people, there were many people on his side, and it was not a problem to stop these 100 or so people.

But after thinking about it, Hu Jinquan gave up his plan to intercept this group of people, he came to dig a trap this time, in order to buy more time for Xiang Luyang to escape, if he delayed Xiang Luyang's major event in order to stop this team of unknown origins, it would be worth the loss.

Thinking of this, Hu Jinquan pressed his body down again, and let Xing Jiamu and his party go.

After Xing Jiamu and the others passed, Hu Jinquan saw that Xiang Luyang had already done it, so he hurriedly ordered people to start digging traps, burying gunpowder, and digging horse pits.

When Xing Jiamu and the others came to the gate of the Changzhi barracks, a large group of people was just about to rush out, and the general who led the team saw someone coming, hurriedly ordered the team to stop, and then asked, "Who is coming in front?" ”

Lu Zhiyong said: "The garrison of the Tunliu Army was attacked by the rebels, and we escorted General Sikong back to the Changzhi military camp, which is a token." ”

With that, he threw the token to the general on the other side.

Then the torch, after seeing the authenticity of the token, and then looked at Sikong Hai, who was sitting on the opposite side, the general hurriedly jumped off his horse and knelt on the ground and said: "The last general is too late to save the car, please forgive the general." ”

After the general finished speaking, he lowered his head and knelt there, not daring to look at Sikong Hai again.

"Get up, don't blame you for this, you can take the troops back to the camp, there is nothing for you here, and I am a little injured, the affairs in the camp in the past two days are all in charge of Lord Xing, you can listen to Lord Xing's dispatch when the time comes!" Sikong Hai's voice said emotionlessly.

Although the general didn't understand why Sikong Hai made such an arrangement, it was difficult to disobey the order, so he said, "The last general will obey the order." ”

After Xing Jiamu came to Sikong Hai's camp, he settled Sikong Hai, told He Yue to specifically control him, and he must not make any mistakes, and then began to study how to firmly control the 150,000 army in his own hands.

After going back and forth on the ground for a while, Xing Jiamu had a bold idea, this Sikong Hai's army is a regular army, and the advantage of the regular army is that the military commander is not immutable, and the imperial court has the right to change it at any time, and the military commander of each military camp will be changed at any time.

As for taking over by himself, the personnel appointments and the promotions of the generals will be decided by themselves, and everything will be easy to do at that time.

Thinking of this, Xing Jiamu told Lu Zhiyong, Bai Heng and others about his thoughts, and everyone thought that this was the most effective way for the time being, and everyone agreed to do so.

It may be difficult for others to forge the holy decree, but for Xing Jiamu, a historian, it is like child's play, it doesn't take long for the holy decree to be made, just wait for someone to pretend to be sent over tomorrow.

After studying and taking over the Changzhi barracks, Lu Zhiyong spoke: "My lord, should we send someone over to take a look at the garrison?" ”

Xing Jiamu said: "There is no need to send people over there, I think Xiang Luyang has already thought about how to deal with the reinforcements here, we will send people over now and get rid of their tricks." ”

"There are only 20,000 people on the garrison side, and it is estimated that there will not be much to save in the past, and then there will be some losses on this side, we are now on a stable foothold, if there are large-scale casualties here, we will not be able to control it next."

Lu Zhiyong said: "Will this damage morale?" ”

Xing Jiamu said: "The morale is gone, you can be in the drum, but if there is a mutiny because of the rescue, it will be worth the loss." ”

Everyone thought about it and felt that Xing Jiamu's worries were also reasonable, so no one spoke up anymore to mention the matter of rescuing the remaining defenders.
