Chapter 47: Night Attack (1)

The night is hazy, the moonlight is like washing, the time has reached two or three o'clock in the morning, this time, it is the time of the day, people are most tired, the most want to sleep, there is a quiet between heaven and earth. Ten miles outside the city, inside the camp of the Anxi Army, it was a tense and busy scene at the moment. Armor for armor, horses for horses, and more people have begun to arrange their saddles, check their blades, and make final preparations for the upcoming battle.

"General Xiao......" In the tense and depressing atmosphere, a small voice sounded, "Are we going to attack the camp?" The other side has 4,000 cavalry, and why do we only send 500 cavalry, do we want to call the 3,000 Qarluq cavalry to act together? ”

It was a scout ranger from the Anzai Army who spoke. In the evening, the four thousand Great Eclipse Vanguard began to set up camp, and sent at least two or three hundred cavalry to patrol this side. And Li Anping was not ambiguous, and immediately sent an equal amount of sentry cavalry to fight against it. The two sides chased each other and tried each other, and they struggled for half a night. It wasn't until late at night that they each tacitly contracted inward, leaving a buffer zone of three or four miles in the middle.

The talking scout ranger was also sent out to carry out a mission for an hour, and he had a deep understanding of the combat power of the Great Food Cavalry, except that he was not good at bows and arrows, and was not inferior to the Anxi cavalry, so he couldn't help but ask. Although the other Anxi soldiers around were silent, they all stopped what they were doing for the time being, looked over, and pricked up their ears one by one, obviously this is what they want to ask.

Known as General Xiao is naturally Xiao Qu's illness, before coming to Su to Shana, Gao Xianzhi had already appointed him as the general of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, and he is now on an equal footing with Duan Xiushi. I have to say that at this time, the power of the Jiedu envoy is great, and he can not only appoint and dismiss the officials under his rule at will. They can even execute their own subordinates without asking for permission and without any responsibility. It is no wonder that An Lushan's rebellion was not hindered at all.

Xiao Quzhi smiled slightly, his eyes flashed with excitement like fire, "Are you afraid?" This is a night attack, not a group fight, there are more people but chaos! So I can only pick the most elite fighters, why, you don't have the self-confidence to think that you are not the elite? Well, I'll go and pick five hundred Garluq cavalry for you. ”

"I'm not afraid of ......," said the scout ranger, whose face flushed and was a little ashamed, "I just think the difference in numbers is too great, even though during the day, we have wiped out all of our five hundred and six hundred." But now it's five hundred against four thousand, not to mention that they have dug trenches and set up camps. Not to mention that there are still more than 200 ranger patrols outside their camp, even if they want to, they can't sneak attack! ”

"A group of cowardly soft eggs, how heroic they usually boast of, they are all bears at this time." Xiao Qu snorted, and only looked at them coldly with contemptuous and provocative eyes: "Four thousand big food eaters are a fart, no matter how many big food dogs, Lao Tzu doesn't take it seriously, just yesterday, Lao Tzu's fourteen people faced more than three hundred big food eaters, and no one put fear on their faces." Didn't you kill most of them in the end? None of Lao Tzu is dead! ”

Xiao Quzhi just pointed to the big food camp from afar: "Do you think Lao Tzu is taking you to death?" To tell you the truth, even if you die, you will be the first to die! Wait and see, Lao Tzu will always rush to the front of all of you. His Majesty Lao Tzu personally sealed a third-grade county marquis who is not afraid of death, you are so afraid of death? Your life is more precious than Lao Tzu's life? Lao Tzu is taking you to make meritorious contributions, great merits are in front of you, you don't dare to ask for it, such a coward and soft egg should get out of the Anxi Army as soon as possible! ”

After saying this, Xiao Quzhi didn't look at them again, turned over his horse, and walked out of the camp gate proudly. In the crowd, Amirjiang was the first to step out of the crowd, laughed, and followed. followed by Gu Xiaojun and Li Ergou, who scolded loudly: "Cowardice in battle, it's really a shame to die, don't say that you are Anxi Army in the future." Then there was Bai Xiaode, who shook his head and followed out without saying a word.

The rest watched them walk out of the camp gates, and then you looked at me and I looked at you with shame on my face. The Tang people are martial, and the character of the Tang people is fearless, confident and proud. Most of the Tang people are willing to die rather than be looked down upon, let alone the victorious Anxi army. All the people were excited by Xiao Qu's words, and after being stunned for a second or two, they quickly packed up and chased out.

"Captain Li, do you think they can succeed?" An Anxi soldier who stayed behind in the camp to watch the night asked.

Li Anping stood on the wall, looked westward, and muttered: "I think Xiao Bei will be so calm, his eyes are full of confidence, but I know that he has already made up his mind that this will be done." ”

"Why are you so sure?"

"I believe that Zhongcheng will not be wrong, Zhongcheng values Xiao Beijiang so much, you can know that he must be outstanding. Besides, Gu Xiaojun, you always know that he doesn't have any suspicions when he is extremely safe, which shows that he is foolproof. ”

Seeing that the five hundred horsemen followed, Xiao Quzhi nodded with satisfaction. After walking a mile forward with them, Gu Xiaojun let out a few night owl cries from his mouth, and not long after, a team of patrolling Anxi rode over.

"How's it going?" Xiao Quzhi took off the bamboo piece in his mouth and asked in a low voice.

"The situation is normal, the Great Food Patrol Cavalry is still the same as in the first half of the night, a team of twenty people, a total of ten teams, lighting torches to patrol around. There were four teams in our direction, two teams in each of the other three directions, and the dark posts lurking in the darkness were not clear. ”

"Very well, keep patrolling."

Xiao Qubing made the five hundred horsemen stand in a semicircle, and he rode his horse to stand in the middle, and briefly talked about the combat mission. This is the first time that Xiao Qubing has commanded a regular army to fight, and the previous one can only be regarded as a special squad operation. Due to the influence of his master Chen Guoliang, in the days to come, before each military operation, Xiao Qubing would hold a small meeting before the war to briefly convey the combat mission; After the battle, there will also be a small meeting to summarize the experience and gains and losses of the battle.

"My battle plan is very simple, it is to ambush and lure the enemy. The first step in the plan is to eliminate the rangers and hidden outposts of the Great Food Patrol; The second step is to lure out the Great Eater Cavalry in the enemy camp and destroy it. If the plan goes well, tonight we will be able to defeat these four thousand eclipse strikers with five hundred horsemen; If it doesn't go well, you can defeat them after dawn and destroy them. The specific course of action is ......"

After about three minutes, everyone listened in amazement as he finished his bold and whimsical battle plan. Except for Gu Xiaojun, Amir Jiang and others, everyone else had the same idea in their hearts: how could it be done? It's child's play! Crazy......
