Chapter 102: The Sandpiper and the Clam Fight
Lei Ming and the leaders of the various roads agreed to let their respective subordinates eat a full meal, because of the lack of food and grass, and now it is winter, the soldiers not only have to maintain physical exertion, but also to resist the cold, so they have to change from two meals a day to three meals a day.
Therefore, these leaders, including Zhou Cang, are as much as possible to save grain and grass, and they don't dare to let the soldiers eat at all, there is almost one, even so, there is not too much grain and grass in their hands.
This approach also shows the determination of the leaders of all walks of life to break the boat, they know that there is a gap between their subordinates and the Montenegrin army, so they can only try their best to make up for it from other places, no matter how strong your combat power is, you will have enough strength to eat, right? No matter how bad the strength of our subordinates is, after they are full, they can't fight with the Black Mountain Army with a half-empty stomach?
The thieves were also amazed at their leader's kindness, but they were soon attracted by the food in front of them, and they devoured them like starving ghosts.
After seeing that his subordinates were full, Lei Ming asked, "Are the brothers full?" ”
"It's full, thank you, Chief." "If only I could eat enough every day" "Yes, yes." The thieves were noisy for a while.
"Now there is an opportunity for the brothers to be fed every day in the future, but it will take some risks, I wonder if the brothers are willing?"
"Boss, you say, as long as I can eat enough, I dare to do anything, and I am afraid of risks in our business? You say don't you? A thief spoke up.
All the thieves agreed.
"Well, I plan to surrender to the Marquis of Anping, but I have to show sincerity, I have agreed with the rest of the leaders to raid the Montenegrin Army on the third watch tonight, I don't know if you brothers dare to go together?" Lei Ming asked.
For a while, the thieves who were still in high spirits just now wilted, they didn't expect Lei Ming to let them attack the Black Mountain Army, not to mention that the Black Mountain Army still has 200,000 people now. Even today, they watched the farcical battle from a distance, and the strength of the Black Mountain Army made them afraid in their hearts, and they didn't dare to resist at all.
Lei Ming was not surprised by the reaction of his subordinates, if they heard this order one by one and screamed towards the Black Mountain Army, then he didn't have to say these words, just give the order directly.
Don't talk about them. It's that Lei Ming doesn't have the bottom in his heart, he dares to attack the Black Mountain Army entirely because of Liu Meng's existence that he has the confidence, if he is allowed to step forward alone, he will definitely not dare, but he didn't expect that Liu Meng just wanted to let him step forward alone for a while, and soon, the time of the two watches was only four hours.
"Brothers, the combat power of the Montenegrin Army is stronger than ours, but this time Anpinghou will also attack the Montenegrin Army with us, can his Montenegrin Army be stronger than Anpinghou? In the past two days, the Montenegrin army has lost a lot of manpower in its hands. And we only have this way to live now, who knows if what happened today is a precursor to the Montenegrin army raising a butcher's knife against us? Lei Ming said.
The previous words shook these thieves, and the last sentence woke them up even more.
That's right, what if this happens the next time the siege happens, the more than 30,000 people who died this time are bandits, but next time it may be them.
So all the thieves agreed, and what happened to the rest of the leaders was similar to what happened here in Lei Ming.
Because Zhou Cang was confident in the combat effectiveness of his own army, he couldn't imagine that other leaders would have the courage to resist him. Therefore, no one was sent to monitor their movements, so naturally they could not find this.
It was the third watch of the night. The sleeping thieves slowly moved towards the Black Mountain military camp under the leadership of their own leader.
Although the Montenegrin army is not heavily guarded at this time, it will definitely not have the situation that no one patrols the vigil at all, Lei Ming was discovered by the night watchman as soon as he approached, but the night watchman saw that it was Lei Ming and did not send a warning, but just asked: "The hour is so late, Leader Lei is not resting in his own camp but comes to my Montenegrin army for what is the so-called?" ”
Lei Ming said quietly: "I found that unknown people and horses appeared in the direction of our army, and I guess that it may be that the enemy army is out of the city and attacked at night." I came to consult with Commander Zhou. ”
Hearing that there might be an enemy attack at night, the little leader who led the patrol did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Leader Lei, wait a minute, the commander of my family has already slept, I will go and report." ”
After saying that, he wanted to turn around and rush to the Zhou Cang tent.
"I know Commander Zhou's tent, so I won't bother you to report it. Do it. Lei Ming took out his sword first and killed the little leader, and the thieves behind him also swarmed up and killed the unsuspecting patrol soldiers on the spot.
The Montenegrin army was attacked in all directions, and many Montenegrin soldiers were killed in their sleep, but it was only the beginning, after all, the movement was too big, and the Montenegrin army quickly reacted, and Zhou Cangyu and other high-level Montenegrin soldiers also woke up and began to organize men and horses to counterattack.
The one-sided slaughter no longer exists, and the thieves from all walks of life feel a lot of pressure, and their combat effectiveness is too much worse than each other, but fortunately, all the thieves feel that Anping Hou will arrive soon, and the morale is not weak, plus the two mentioned earlier, one side is full, and the other side is empty, and it is comparable for a while.
However, it didn't take long for this situation to be broken, because Zhou Cang sent the cavalry of the Black Mountain Army, which had not been used.
Only the strength of the Black Mountain Army can train cavalry, and the cavalry of the Black Mountain Army is different from other cavalry, because of its special nature, it does not rely on impact to kill the enemy at all, but is equipped with a long knife and focuses on the chopping ability of close combat, which is similar to Xu Huang's generals.
The cavalry of the Montenegrin army broke the deadlock as soon as they came out, although there were only more than 2,000 cavalry, and wherever the cavalry was killed, the thieves there had no ability to resist.
The morale of the thieves from all walks of life is slowly declining, not only because of the cavalry of the Black Mountain Army, but also because they have not seen Liu Meng lead the army for a long time.
"Leader Lei, why haven't the soldiers and horses of Anping Hou come yet? We're not going to be deceived, my brother is so dead and wounded that he can't hold on. A leader said to Lei Ming.
Lei Ming was also a little apprehensive at this time, and now more than half an hour has passed, but Liu Mengjun has no signs of appearing at all.
"No, Anpinghou should have something to delay, and now I have no way to retreat, even if I give up the action and surrender to Zhoucang now, the other party will not be compatible, so I can only go one way to the dark." Lei Ming said ruthlessly.
The leader was also silent when he heard this, it was true, and if he was Zhou Cang, he couldn't tolerate everyone at this time.
Although the Montenegrin army has the advantage, there are also a lot of thieves from all walks of life, and it is not enough to defeat them for a while.
On the fifth watch, Liu Meng led the army to arrive. (To be continued......)
