In the middle of the night, in the camp of Yin Hao's main army outside the south gate of Lanling City, except for the 3,000 men and horses who were in charge of the guard, the rest of the soldiers rested in the camp tent with peace of mind

They were not worried that the Li Ben legion in the city would suddenly kill, after all, they had 30,000 people, which was far stronger than the thousands of Li Ben legions in the city, and the 3,000 vigilant legions were enough to ensure the safety of the large battalion.

Obviously, the soldiers of Yin Hao's army were too careless, and when most of them were resting peacefully, all the soldiers of Li Ben's army in Lanling City were actively preparing for battle.

The two armies of soldiers and horses preparing to attack the camp of Yin Hao's main army are urgently preparing for battle, and more than half of the soldiers and horses responsible for staying behind are also preparing for defense to prevent Yin Hao's army from retaliating against Lanling City after the siege equipment is burned.

In the south gate of Lanling City, Li Ben and his more than 2,000 soldiers and horses are on standby, as long as the time comes, they will immediately open the city gate and launch a surprise attack on Yin Hao's army not far outside the city, so as to quickly burn the heavy siege equipment that Yin Hao's army is building.

Li Ben, who was dressed in black cloth, looked at the deputy general beside him and said softly: "The hour is almost there!" ”

The adjutant general hugged his fists and said: "General, the time has come, most of the enemy soldiers must be resting, and our army will attack from two directions, and we will definitely be able to burn the siege equipment of the Jin army." ”

Li Ben nodded, and said: "According to the scout's investigation, the guard soldiers and horses of the enemy camp outside the city are as high as 3,000, and the pressure of your 2,000 men and horses is very high. Immediately evacuate the battle and enter the city from the direction of the North Gate. ”

"Rest assured, the general will definitely complete the task." The lieutenant will hold his fist.

Li Ben looked at the deputy general with satisfaction, paused, and said, "Open the city gate and prepare to attack." ”

Several soldiers heard the order. Immediately opened the city gate, and then, Vice General Li Ben led 2,000 soldiers and horses under his command to attack the east of the camp of Yin Hao's army with lightning speed.

Seeing that Li Ben's army suddenly came out of the city, the general of the Jin army, who was responsible for guarding the safety of the camp, was taken aback. Immediately mobilize his soldiers to meet Li Ben's army, preparing to block the attack of Li Ben's army.

In this way, the 3,000 soldiers who were responsible for guarding the whole battalion were all transferred by the generals of the Jin army to block the 2,000 men and horses of Li Ben's army, and the rest of the camp was empty.

However, at this moment, the soldiers of Yin Hao's camp were resting. Most of them were awakened to the sound of fighting near the camp. None of them had the intention of sleeping, so they immediately searched for the clothes and armor in the camp and prepared for battle.

Even Yin Hao, who was in the big tent of the Chinese army, was awakened by the sound of fighting outside, and put on his clothes in a panic, preparing to go out of the tent to check the situation.

Just when Yin Hao's main army camp was in chaos. Li Ben and his two hundred warriors seized the opportunity and quickly rushed out of the city, rushing to the west side of Yin Hao's army camp at the fastest speed, and directly to the location where the siege equipment was built.

Yin Hao put on his clothes in a panic and ran out of the big tent of the Chinese army. At this time, several henchmen also rushed over and collided with Yin Hao.

"What happened outside the camp, was it Li Ben's army that attacked our army?" Yin Hao saw the general and hurriedly asked.

The general hurriedly replied: "General, thousands of men and horses under Li Ben's command suddenly came out of the city and launched a fierce attack on the right flank of our army's battalion, fortunately, the general has been prepared and arranged 3,000 guards and horses, otherwise, our army will be in danger." ”

"General, Li Ben's army is strong, immediately gather more soldiers and horses to attack Li Ben's army." A ministry will build a yì road.

"General, Li Ben's army took the risk of raiding our army's camp, it is self-defeating, as long as the main force of our army is fully assembled, thousands of men and horses under Li Ben's command will be unable to escape." Another general said loudly.

Hearing this, Yin Hao nodded, and hurriedly ordered: "Immediately assemble all the soldiers and horses of the battalion, launch an attack on the enemy army, and must completely annihilate the enemy army." ”

"Yes, General." The generals all shouted orders, and immediately went to gather their troops and horses, preparing to launch a counterattack against Li Ben's raiders, and destroy Li Ben's army in one fell swoop.

After the generals left, Yin Hao suddenly frowned, and said to himself: "Why did Li Ben's army raid the right flank of our army, the right flank is not the weak point of our army!" It's a strange thing. ”

Just when Yin Hao was frowning and puzzled, Li Ben and his two hundred warriors had quietly approached the left flank of Yin Hao's camp and approached the location where Yin Hao's army was building siege equipment.

At this time, almost all the officers and soldiers of Yin Hao's army battalion were attracted by the 2,000 men and horses of Adjutant General Li Ben, so the soldiers and horses deployed on the left flank were extremely scarce.

Li Ben seized the opportunity, led two hundred warriors under his command, slashed and killed the Jin soldiers defending the left flank, and rushed to the front of the siege equipment that had already built most of the siege equipment.

"General, these siege hail trucks are really big, if the Jin army is built, I'm afraid that Lanling City will be really difficult to hold!" Looking at the extremely tall and heavy thunderbolt, a pro-soldier said with emotion.

The corner of Li Ben's mouth sneered, and he said: "Immediately ignite the fire, burn these big guys, and all the attacking weapons here, burn them all, and don't leave them for the Jin army, burn ......"

Under Li Ben's order, the two hundred warriors under his command immediately poured the fire oil and other flammable materials they carried on the siege equipment of the Jin army, and immediately set fire to these siege equipment.

Seeing the flames gradually burning, a satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Li Ben's mouth, and he immediately ordered: "Retreat, retreat immediately." After speaking, he led the two hundred warriors under his command to make a detour in the direction of the north gate.

With the burning of piles of flames, soon, on the left flank of Yin Hao's army camp, a huge pile of flames was ignited, which almost illuminated the entire Yin Hao main army camp.

Yin Hao, who was puzzled, was taken aback when he saw that the camp suddenly and gradually lit up, and hurriedly looked in the direction where the light came from.

Such a big loss made Yin Hao a little difficult to accept, but something had happened, which made Yin Hao feel helpless.

"General, hundreds of enemy troops attacked the left flank of our army and burned all the weapons of our army in the direction of the left flank." A lieutenant rushed to Yin Hao's front and reported with his fists clenched.

Yin Hao naturally saw it a long time ago, he nodded, and fell into deep thought, at this moment, all the siege equipment was burned, and what he was thinking about was how to use other methods to break through Lanling City.

On the right flank of Yin Hao's main army camp, at the beginning, the two thousand soldiers and horses under Li Ben's command, with their strong combat power, still occupied a little advantage, but with the continuous reinforcement of the main force of Yin Hao's army, the advantage became gone, and even, they have felt huge pressure, but in order to attract the main force of Yin Hao's army, with Li Ben's partial division to burn the Jin army's siege equipment, they must grit their teeth and persevere, and wait for the flame to ignite, now, see that the left wing of Yin Hao's army camp is burning a huge flame, Adjutant General Li Ben immediately led his army to evacuate quickly, and with his familiarity with the nearby terrain, he broke away from contact with Yin Hao's army and made a detour in the direction of the north gate.

Seeing that Li Ben's army fled quickly, Yin Hao's army pursued for several miles, and then returned to the camp under the leadership of several generals, and prepared to report the battle situation to Yin Hao.

At the same time, Wang Wu and Wang Liu of the east and west gates of Lanling City were frightened when they saw a huge flame burning in the direction of the main camp, and immediately sent their henchmen to check the situation in the direction of the main army camp, and at the same time, let all the soldiers and horses under their command immediately prepare for battle and be ready to fight at any time.

Several henchmen under Yin Hao's command returned to the camp one after another, and went straight to the big tent of the Chinese army.

At this time, many soldiers in the camp were busy extinguishing the fire on the left flank of the camp and preventing the fire from spreading further, but no matter what, the siege equipment that had been burned was completely destroyed, and the killer weapon that Yin Hao's army relied on was gone.

Yin Hao stood outside the big tent of the Chinese army, looking at the raging flames on the left flank of the camp, in addition to helplessness, there was also anger in his heart, and he planned to take revenge on Li Ben's army.

"General, thousands of enemy troops have been routed by our army." A henchman general clenched his fists and reported to Yin Hao.

However, Yin Hao was not happy at all at all at the victory of his subordinates, because Li Ben's attempt was to burn the siege equipment of the battalion, and the thousands of men and horses on the right flank were just bait, and now, Li Ben's goal has been achieved, and a large number of siege equipment have also been burned, Yin Hao's mood is naturally very bad.

Yin Hao looked at his subordinate generals and said loudly: "Pass the order, and the whole army will immediately attack Lanling City." ”

The generals were stunned for a moment, and then said loudly: "Yes, General." ”

Subsequently, the main force of Yin Hao's army launched a fierce attack on the south gate of Lanling City, because the heavy siege equipment was destroyed before it was built, therefore, the main army under Yin Hao's command had to rely on a small number of light siege equipment to attack the south gate of Lanling City.

Yin Hao felt that Li Ben and half of his men and horses had all fought out of the city, and the number of defenders in the city must be very small, even if there were no heavy siege equipment, they could still rely on the absolute superiority of troops to break through the defense of Lanling City.

At the same time, Yin Hao also immediately ordered the two partial divisions outside the east gate and the west gate to also attack Lanling City, thus breaking through the defense of Lanling City in one fell swoop.

The Wang 5 and Wang 6 legions outside the east and west gates of Lanling City, after receiving Yin Hao's order, immediately launched a fierce attack on Lanling City. (To be continued......)
