Chapter 124: Attack on the Camp

Le Jin is also a ranger in the rivers and lakes, although doing these jobs is not his own job, but it can be regarded as a matter of hand-to-hand, and most of the Xu Ji's personal guard camp are old rivers and lakes who follow Dian Wei, these people are not only quick with their hands and feet, the key is that they are all guys who have been outlaws in the rivers and lakes, and they naturally have no affection at all, so although they have invaded Zhang Miao's camp, half an hour has passed, and no one in Zhang Miao's camp knows that they have been attacked.

Although Lejin took people here, he still didn't make a mistake, and after solving a few patrolling soldiers along the way, he found a safe corner to hide. Le Jin knew very well that if he did it, he was afraid that he would destroy Xu Ji's plan, so even if he set fire to cause a riot, it should be after Gao Shun led his troops to attack Zhang Miao's camp, and he still chose to lie dormant before that.

Although the trapped camp under Gao Shun's command experienced a war during the day, this moderate degree of battle is not a big deal at all for these elite soldiers, so their movements are not slow, Lejin set off less than a stick of incense, Gao Shun has actually led the troops out of the camp quietly, because it is a heavily armored foot soldier, in order not to make too much noise, Gao Shun even ordered the soldiers under his command to unload their armor and advance, and their armor was all handed over to Xu Qian's command. Therefore, the Lejin Department had just seized control of the side door, and Gao Shun immediately took over the defense, of course, the focus was to wait for Xu Qian to send their ordnance.

Although Xu Qian was a little dissatisfied with his mission, he did not dare to delay the success or failure of this matter, and when he saw Gao Shun raising the fire, he immediately ordered his subordinates to send all the heavy armor and weapons handed over by Gao Shun to the side gate of Zhang Miao's camp where Gao Shun was located. And it was Liang Dan who was in charge of this.

To be honest, Liang Dian was not very optimistic about Xu Ji's plan and deployment, and every step Xu Ji took seemed to be taking a great risk. It's just that what Liang Dian didn't expect was that Zhang Miao really fell for the scheme. Afterwards, Liang Dian carefully thought about this matter before and after, only to find that it was not Zhang Miao who was stupid, but Xu Ji's every step with changes. No matter what Zhang Miao chooses, Xu Ji has a way to deal with it, and Zhang Miao, who is passive, can only act according to Xu Ji's ideas.

Of course, Liang Dan didn't have time to think about this at this time. The trapped camp led by Gao Shun looks majestic on weekdays, but Liang Dian weighed the heavy armor that the trapped camp soldiers are equipped with before he realized that these heavy armor that looked majestic are actually not so good, and the transportation of hundreds of sets of heavy armor is really too slow, maybe these soldiers in charge of transportation do not know the importance of this matter, but Liang Dian knows very well that he will start a moment earlier when he arrives at Gao Shun, and the probability of being detected by Zhang Miao is one point lower, so Liang Dian does not dare to delay, and keeps urging.

Hurry up, hurry, hurry. Liang Dian still used up nearly a stick of incense to hand over these things to Gao Shun, Gao Shun didn't say much to Liang Dian and immediately ordered his soldiers to equip on the spot, and then he had time to pay attention to Liang Ton: "Why don't you leave?" Don't you have to go back to your superiors after the matter is done? To be honest, Gao Shun was a little dissatisfied when he said this, even if the trapped camp under his command was heavily armored and rushed from Xu Ji's camp to Zhang Miao's camp, he didn't need a stick of incense, and it took time to transport these wastes, which was really a waste of time.

Of course, Liang Duan knew that Gao Shun in front of him was one of the most valued generals under Xu Ji, so he didn't have the temper to reply: "The general ordered me to lead my troops to stay and take over the defense of General Gao, and the superintendent said that if it was difficult to conquer, he would withdraw from here." Gao Shun frowned when he heard this, but didn't speak, but waved his hand to let Liang Dun leave. Liang Dian himself knew why he had caused Gao Shun's face. But he was also helpless, after all, the soldiers under the command of the local government were indeed very elite, and his so-called robes were just some guys who were counting on food and salary.

However, Gao Shun didn't take this matter to heart, and the trapping camp had already been dressed up at this time. At this time, it was only the beginning of the third watch, Gao Shun looked back at the direction of Xu Ji's camp, took a deep breath, looked back at the five hundred strong men under his command, and said in a deep voice: "Do you remember the name that the Lord gave us?" ”

"Remember!" The answer was loud and neat.

Gao Shun nodded with satisfaction and asked again, "Do you remember the approval that the Lord gave us?" ”

"The will to fall into battle, there is death and no life! Ambition to fall into battle. There is death and no life! ”

At this time, the morale of the soldiers in the trapped camp had been completely mobilized, and Gao Shun said loudly: "The success or failure of the Lord is in this battle." Soldiers, for the sake of the Lord's victory. I would like to be the first to die in battle! ”

At this time, the soldiers who fell into the camp were already boiling with enthusiasm and replied loudly: "I am willing to fight to the death from the general!" But there are dead soldiers, and there are no soldiers who escape! ”

At this time, Gao Shun didn't care about whether he alarmed Zhang Miao at all, and said in a bold voice: "Everyone, form a formation." I'm waiting to open the way for the Lord! ”

At this time, Le Jin had already heard the movement, Gao Shun's formation was not small at all, and he could understand the soldiers' loud responses, not to mention these soldiers who had been under Gao Shun's command for a long time, that is, he felt a little enthusiastic. So he immediately got into action.

Of course, Zhang Miao was not surprised to be woken up from his sleep, he had only rested for a short time, and his brain was still a mess at this time, until he heard the colonel say the words "enemy attack the camp" He was shocked into a cold sweat. Zhang Miao never expected Xu Ji to have this trick, logically speaking, Zhang Miao should not be so lightly prepared, but today's battle did make him a little tired, and the soldiers were even more so, so he could understand that he was negligent in his precautions, but he knew the solidity of his own camp, how did Xu Ji attack his own camp without alarming others? This is Zhang Miao's most puzzled question at this time, but he also knows that now is not the time to think about this, the biggest problem now is that the enemy situation is unknown, where did Xu Ji occupy? How many people came?

And none of this has any exact news, and what is even more terrifying is that there are people arson everywhere in his camp, accompanied by the chanting of "enemy attack", in this situation, Zhang Miao really can't think about the problem calmly. He grabbed the colonel who woke him up and asked, "What is the situation in the camp?" What about the generals? ”

Xiao Xiao looked panicked, but under Zhang Miao's inquiry, he still barely calmed down and replied intermittently: "There is chaos in the camp, and there are fires everywhere. The enemy seems to have come from the north gate, and the generals are unknown. ”

Zhang Miao couldn't help but feel a little cold when he heard this. The enemy's situation is unknown, and he can't even find anyone to command the soldiers. What's worse is that the number of people coming from the other side is still unknown, although the number of people attacking the camp is generally not too much, but the opponent is Xu Ji, which is difficult to say. Zhang Miao let go of the colonel and said to him: "You go to find Zhang Tang, and also, go to the generals of each battalion and ask them to collect their soldiers!" ”

The little colonel ran out of the tent in a panic, Zhang Miao was naturally not in the mood to continue to stay in the big tent, he walked out of the big tent after he finished hanging up, and the scene that caught his eye made him almost gush out of a mouthful of blood, and the camp that was originally considered orderly had fires everywhere at this time. The soldiers were running around in a panic, and the frightened horses were scurrying around the camp. The only thing that comforted Zhang Miao a little was that his personal guards were neatly equipped to guard outside his big tent, and at this time, a young man stepped forward and bowed down and asked, "Lord Taishou, how about covering?" ”

Zhang Miao turned his head to see that it was Zhang Tang he was looking for, Zhang Miao frowned and said: "You go and gather the soldiers to lead them to extinguish the fire, the enemy situation is unknown, don't act rashly." Zhang Miao took the order and left, and Zhang Miao could only wait at this time. He didn't dare to rush to purge Xu Ji's troops who had attacked the camp in such a chaotic situation. However, it only rained two days ago, and the fire could still be controlled at this time, but the smoke and dust became a huge problem, and it was even difficult to identify who the other party was after ten steps. In such a bad situation, Zhang Miao didn't dare to act rashly, but Zhang Miao knew very well that he had to retreat as soon as his camp was broken, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to stop Xu Ji's offensive without a large battalion that he could rely on.

Zhang Miao had already retreated at this time. Now that he wants to win, I'm afraid it's unrealistic, Xu Ji only needs to take advantage of the situation to attack himself, and he is almost powerless to deal with it. The only thing to be thankful for is that the smoke from the fire not only stopped him, but also hindered Xu Ji's attack. I still bought a little time to catch my breath, but even then the big picture was decided. After this night, his advantage over Xu Ji was gone, and Xu Ji might even use this to replace his right to speak in Chen Liu, but this was something that Zhang Miao had nothing to do, and Xu Ji calculated himself almost perfectly.

So in the second half of the night, Zhang Miao really didn't encounter the attack of Xu Jifang's soldiers, but even so, he was already embarrassed, the genius was bright, the sun was rising, and the place where it was a big camp yesterday was already full of gunsmoke at the moment, and the trees that were half burned by the fire could be seen everywhere.

Zhang Miao said at the moment how embarrassed he was, how embarrassed he was, he no longer had the demeanor of a county guard, his face was full of dust and traces of gunsmoke, and the soldiers who followed behind him were only three or four hundred. And what made Zhang Miao desperate was that Xu Ji was not far away at this time, the two were only five or six miles apart, Xu Ji rode on the horse, and behind him was the heavy armored foot soldiers who gave Zhang Miao a headache, and the armor of these soldiers was also full of gunsmoke marks, obviously it was this army that attacked the camp last night.

Zhang Miao smiled bitterly and shouted to Xu Ji: "Xu Duyou is calculating, Zhang Mengzhuo is not an opponent. Zhang Miao admitted defeat very shamefully, there is no room for him to turn the tables in this battle, if Xu Ji did not come here or still have the opportunity to gather the remnants of the army and slowly retreat to Chenliu, but Xu Ji here shows that everything he has been controlled by Xu Ji, so there is no need to struggle anymore.

And Xu Ji just smiled faintly and said: "Lord Taishou said that he was joking, Wen Lie's victory was just luck." Zhang Miao smiled when he heard this, and said again: "Don't talk about this, what is the post supervisor going to do with me?" ”

This is what Zhang Miao really cares about, it doesn't matter if he wins or loses for a while, as long as he lives, he won't worry about not winning back, Zhang Miao believes that Xu Ji is very clear, so he just wants to see what Xu Ji will do with him. In fact, Zhang Miao can be regarded as fearless, after all, he is Xu Ji's top boss, Xu Ji will never dare to kill himself, at least he will not dare to blatantly ask for his own life, so Zhang Miao dares to ask Xu Ji this question so indifferently.

And Xu Ji sneered: "Lord Taishou expects that Ding Wenlie will not dare to take the life of an adult?" Zhang Miao was still smiling, although he was extremely embarrassed, but it seemed that he was the winner. Seeing this, Xu Ji shook his head and chuckled: "What a Zhang Mengzhuo, but Xu Wenlie is not a person who is afraid of things, Zihe, take this fang with me." I'd like to see if this guy can be arrogant in time! "Xu Ji is really moved to kill, originally out of safety, he really planned to let Zhang Miao go. It's just that seeing Zhang Miao's appearance now angers Xu Ji very much, and the loser should have the appearance of a loser. Zhang Miao's arrogance and fearlessness deeply stabbed Xu Ji's sensitive emotions.

Gao Shun naturally didn't have any opinions, and he wanted to lead people forward, Zhang Miao saw that the situation was wrong, Xu Ji's character Zhang Miao has a little understanding, the person who could make a fire in the Changshe back then would never be a soft-hearted and kind person, Zhang Miao, who originally wanted to rely on his official rank to find a way to make a living and scare Xu Ji by the way, also regretted it at this time, I wanted to find some way back, but who knew that it was a taboo, Zhang Miao was really desperate at this time, but he was still tough and didn't speak.

At this time, Guo Jia, who was beside Xu Ji, frowned, and immediately stepped forward and said a few words in Xu Ji's ear. After listening to Guo Jia's words, Xu Ji suddenly stopped Gao Shun: "Zihe, slow down." Hearing this, Zhang Miao had a feeling of the rest of his life, but he didn't dare to take it lightly, he couldn't figure out what kind of person Xu Ji was, in case this was just Xu Ji's pretending posture to play himself, it might not be.

Of course Xu Ji would not be such a boring person, Guo Jia just reminded him that Xun Yu had no news yet, so Xu Ji couldn't do anything to Zhang Miao at this time. Although Xu Ji is a little angry, he is not a person who does not know the severity, of course, his anger at this time is not as important as the overall situation, not to mention that even if he really kills Zhang Miaoyu himself, it will still be no good. Xu Ji has never done this kind of thing.

But what to do if you don't kill Zhang Miao? This has become a new problem, of course, the best choice is undoubtedly house arrest, but Zhang Miao and other villains are probably quite inconvenient wherever they are, and although Xu Ji himself can see Zhang Miao, he really doesn't want to see Zhang Miao's face. As for if he is not under house arrest, then the only way to let him go will be Chen Liuxian. That would be tantamount to letting Zhang Miao go back and regroup and come back to find trouble for himself, which is even more stupid.

But no matter what happens to it in the future, Xu Ji doesn't plan to make this guy who is arrogant and domineering in front of him even though he is defeated, at least he is still in his own hands now. Thinking of this, Xu Ji simply ordered: "Zihe." Take this guy to Mao Jie, let him dispose of it. Gao Shun naturally took the order and escorted Zhang Miao back to Yu County.

But Xu Ji is still not happy in his heart, Zhang Miao, an old boy, is really a villain. When he first took office as the post superintendent, he vaguely felt that this person was unlearned and unskilled, but he was a real villain, so he was afraid of provoking him. It's a pity that I still have to provoke after the worst. Now it seems that what he expected was not bad at all, but now that the matter has come to an end, Xu Ji is really tired in recent days, and he really needs to take a good rest.

However, the matter is not over, the war is over, the reward should be rewarded, and the punishment should naturally not run, many soldiers are waiting for the reward for meritorious deeds, Xu Ji really wants to say: "Lao Tzu wants to rest." He ignored it, but it was somewhat out of place, so he couldn't hide from it after all.

However, it is indeed a happy event to reward meritorious deeds, although Xu Ji's side paid a lot of price, but after all, it was won, the result is more important than everything, there is no doubt about it, since it is natural to win, it is time to reward the soldiers, the first merit of this battle should be given to Chen Zhi in Xu Ji's heart, although Chen Zhi did not appear in several key battles in a row, but his impact on the battle situation is huge, it is with Chen to Zhang Miao that he has to divide his troops to guard the grain road, It was precisely because of Chen to Zhang Miao that he had to delay for several days to wait for the arrival of a new batch of ordnance, and this hard-won time was earned by Chen Zhi's efforts. However, in the end, Xu Ji still gave the first credit to Gao Shun, Gao Zihe is of course also eligible to enjoy this glory, and even in the eyes of most soldiers, it is natural that the trapped camp with such a strong combat effectiveness should be the first credit, but Gao Shun himself also knows that what he has done in this series of battles is just his own duty, his own hard work is not as good as Xu Qian, and the credit cannot be more continuous Chen Dao, this first merit is to a greater extent Xu Ji's encouragement to him, which Gao Shun is very clear. There is also Chen Zhi, his friendship with Xu Ji for many years does not need to be said to understand, and of course these have not been hidden from Guo Jia, and Guo Jia is very satisfied when he sees this, which means that Xu Ji is more mature, he no longer evaluates people or things by virtue of his likes and dislikes, and more to judge the situation to make decisions, this is what a superior person should have, many of Xu Ji's decisions before this are actually not so much consideration, more often by intuition and his personal likes and dislikes, but Guo Jia does not agree with this way, In his opinion, this is not a qualified superior, but now Xu Ji's progress makes Guo Jia feel gratified.

And the biggest gain of this war may not be that Xu Ji has stabilized his position and territory in Chenliu, the most important thing is that Xu Ji has become more mature, and Xu Ji, who is only sixteen years old, has a mature enough attitude to face more and more difficult challenges.

The road ahead will only be more difficult, this Xu Ji has been prepared, maybe in the near future he will be as depressed as Zhang Miao, Xu Ji is also prepared for this, the so-called favor and humiliation can only succeed, although Xu Ji has not yet reached that realm, but he has also done it calmly.

Success brings not only joy, but also greater pressure, at least before Xun Yu came to the news, Xu Ji did not dare to relax at all. (To be continued......)
