Chapter 44: Night Attack on the Rebels
On February 24, the second year of Jianning, it was ugly.
The cold moonlight shone on the plains outside Tingxian County, making the blood-colored land where the two armies fought during the day look particularly lonely.
A gentle sound of horses' hooves appeared outside the anti-army camp in the east of Tingxian County, which was ten miles away from Tingxian County, which could effectively prevent the defenders in the city from robbing the camp.
However, at this time, in the grove not far from the rebel camp, Ding Yuan was discussing with the deputy general how to deal a fatal blow to the rebels.
The adjutant general said, "General, the enemy army has an army of 40,000!" Let's just attack this thousand cavalry, will it be too bold. ”
Ding Yuan smiled proudly and said, "Hehe, the rebels still don't know that reinforcements are coming, so they will definitely not take precautions against our night attacks, and General Xu Rong once said that this is the time when people are most tired, even if we only have a thousand horsemen, we can also break the enemy army." ”
The adjutant general looked at Ding Yuan with a proud face, and was silent, Ding Yuan's proud capital, from a nobody in less than a year in the army, became a Yue cavalry captain with a rank of 2,000 stones, although it was Xianbei's raid on the Beijing Division, the new army annihilated its department, and the merit of the Beijing Division, the emperor pardoned the Dafeng.
But this has to be said to be the destiny of Ding Yuan, who has this fate, although the new army in that war had nearly ten people, and there were dozens of people who were promoted to the official position of Qianshi.
However, who is the same as this Ding Yuan, promoted to the rank of marquis, and was jointly appreciated by the emperor and the popular general Xu Rong in the court?
At this time, Ding Yuan's face was straight, and he said solemnly, "Pass the order, the army must follow this general, and not slow down and entangle with the rebels." All we have to do is break the will of the enemy so that it cannot be attacked during the day. Buy time for the rest of the pawns. ”
"No"
The deputy general responded to a promise, and he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, he was really afraid that Ding Yuan would be a young man and be blind and arrogant.
A quarter of an hour later, more than a thousand cavalrymen led their horses and slowly walked towards the rebel camp.
When he was a stone's throw away, Ding Yuan raised his hand, and thousands of people stopped at the same time, which shows the elite degree of this cavalry.
"Get on the horse"
Ding Yuan knew that if he went forward further, he would definitely be discovered, so it was better to get on his horse and sprint before he was discovered by the enemy.
With Ding Yuan's order, more than 1,000 cavalrymen simply straddled their horses, waiting for the main general Ding Yuan to give the order to charge.
Ding Yuan looked at the more than 1,000 cavalry sitting on the horse, and felt proud in his heart, the cavalry of the new army was only 5,000, why did he still allocate 1,000 cavalry to himself when he could not guard against the 50,000 troops of the rebel army in Qiqi County, that was General Xu Rong looked up to himself, how could he let General Xu Rong down.
Although Xu Rong's cavalry lieutenant and Ding Yuan's Yue cavalry lieutenant are both official positions with a rank of 2,000 stones, Xu Rong is the chief general of the new army, and Ding Yuan, who was originally one of the five captains of the Northern Army, is under Xu Rong at this time. Even if you don't mention this, and say that Xu Rong's kindness to Ding Yuan is enough for Ding Yuan to be grateful for a lifetime.
What hatred was greatest in ancient times? The hatred of killing the father and the hatred of taking the wife. What is the greatest favor? The grace of saving lives and the grace of knowing the encounter are unrequited. If you treat me as a soldier, I will repay you as a soldier.
With a gleam in his eyes, Ding Yuan shouted, "Sons, follow General Ben to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions." ”
As soon as the words fell, Ding Yuan was the first to rush towards the rebel camp, followed by more than a thousand cavalry.
"Kill"
The huge shouting and killing sound was so piercing in this silent night, and the huge sound of horses' hooves, like thunder on the flat ground, made the rebels panic even more.
Although Qingzhou is located in the north, it does not produce horses, and horses are controlled by the imperial court.
"Ahh
"Ahh
"The imperial army is coming, run!"
Ding Yuan effortlessly broke through the gate of the anti-army camp, and then rushed all the way to kill, all the way to kill basically without any strong resistance, the anti-army woke up in the sleep of the gangsters, and was slashed and killed by Ding Yuan before he woke up, and immediately blew up the camp.
At this time, the rebels really did not see the soldiers, and did not see the generals, like ants on a hot pot.
Seeing that Ding Yuan was about to rush to the big tent of the anti-army Chinese army, he suddenly killed a cavalry with more than 100 horsemen on the side, Ding Yuan saw this and shouted, "Sons, let these anti-thieves know that the cavalry of our new army is powerful." ”
"Drink"
After speaking, he rushed towards it, but Ding Yuan suffered a big loss after just one confrontation.
"Bump"
Ding Yuan and the main general of the more than 100 horsemen rode their horses to fight, but the weapons just now struck, and Ding Yuan's tiger mouth suddenly flowed blood.
The cavalry of the Han army lost more than 100 people in this confrontation, and not a single one of the more than 100 cavalry of the salt army fell, no, not a single person was injured.
Seeing this scene, Ding Yuan looked at his opponent squarely, and immediately found that although this cavalry was also wearing gray and white armor, it was all covered with a white scarf, and there was an ornament tied to his forehead.
Although he didn't know the details of this cavalry, but the battle just now let Ding Yuan know the strength of this cavalry, Ding Yuan took a deep look at this cavalry, as if he wanted to keep this cavalry firmly in his mind.
Seeing that most of the Yan army was slowly surrounding, in order to avoid too many losses of cavalry, Ding Yuan immediately shouted, "Sons, go." ”
"Let him go, and don't hinder him."
The cavalry commander looked at Ding Yuan's back and said.
At this time, a cavalryman on the side said, "Big brother, why did you let him go." ”
"Hehe," the eldest brother chuckled, "If we don't let him go, we'll lose a lot of brothers!" ”
"Big brother, this Ding is the original, presumably his follow-up reinforcements will also arrive tomorrow morning!"
'Big brother' sighed and said, "It's a certain underestimate of Liu Hong!" Originally, I thought that all the disciples of the Salt Gang would be transferred to Donglai, so that they could compete with Liu Hong, but they didn't expect that after only one day of war, they would lose their profits. ”
"Big brother, that's the incompetence of the generals, it's not the big brother's poor planning."
"Second brother, you defended so-and-so, so-and-so knew that he was wrong, and so-and-so made a mistake in not paying attention to the importance of scouts and spies! Now we are like deaf and blind in front of the army of the imperial court. Otherwise, how can the profit be lost in a day? ”
The second brother was silent, that's right, if it weren't for the inaccurate intelligence, how could the main general make a wrong judgment, and this time, Xu Rong sent reinforcements, and he didn't know anything about it. If you could know in advance, how could you let a mere 1,000 cavalry come and go freely in the camp of 40,000 troops.
'Big Brother' sighed again, then took off the face towel, and the face that made Liu Hong grit his teeth appeared in the air.
This person turned out to be Liu Ju, the Liu Ju who defeated the number one killer in the world, if Ding Yuan knew, he would definitely be happy.
Although Ding Yuan's strength is extraordinary, he is still more than a step behind the top figures of the Han Dynasty.
If it is said that according to the ranking of military generals in the Three Kingdoms period, Liu Ju is equivalent to Guan Yu's level, and Ding Yuan is at Zhang Liao's level at this time.
Ding Yuan, who rushed out of the rebel camp, counted the number of people and found that there were more than 300 brothers missing, but he also killed no less than 2,000 rebels, and the materials burned along the way were even greater.
However, what made Ding Yuan angry was that a total of more than 300 brothers were lost, but more than 100 people were lost to the cavalry of more than 100 people.
Ding Yuan pulled out his sword and shouted hysterically to the sky, "Brothers, don't worry, I, Ding Yuan, will avenge you." ”
"Revenge"
"Revenge"
"Revenge"
