Chapter 357: Lose both
After a long battle, the heavy armored cavalry was already sleepy and lacking horses, but fortunately, Hu Yanzhuo had good command ability, rushed in with people, and joined Yang Zhi, with the help of Yang Zhi's light cavalry, the army outside was in chaos.
Qin Han was single-handedly at this time, and he could only ask for his own hardships when he rushed in, so he paid attention to observe, and when he saw Guan Sheng breaking through the Song Jiang formation, Qin Han laughed and rushed into the direction where Yang Zhi was.
Seeing Yang Zhi, Qin Han said, "Don't worry about here, leave with all the light cavalry and me!" ”
Yang Zhi Hu Yanzhuo didn't understand what he meant, but they didn't dare to disobey Qin Han's order, Hu Yanzhuo stayed here and slowly advanced with the heavy armored cavalry, while Yang Zhi and Qin Han broke through the outer army formation again, and then went straight to the Song army camp.
Song Jiang had a total of 30,000 troops on this trip, Chen Liqing folded 3,000, and there were 27,000 left, about 15,000 were brought out this time, and more than 10,000 were left to guard the camp, but the camp was attacked by Qin Han once before, even Zhu Wu couldn't imagine that Qin Han would sneak attack twice.
Qin Han first took people to a secret place, where Wei Dingguo and five hundred scarlet firefighters were repairing, this is an arsenal designed by Qin Han, which is not only hidden, but also very suitable for sneaking up on the army stationed near Liangshan.
Wei Dingguo had previously attacked in the rear of the Song army's camp, and left immediately after a round of fire, resting here with his soldiers, after Qin Han arrived, these people were immediately armed, and then secretly infiltrated the left camp of the Song army.
As the saying goes, a shell will not hit the same crater, and few people will use the same means in a row within a few hours, and it is precisely because of this that Zhu Wu slightly relaxed some of his vigilance.
After Wei Dingguo arrived near the left camp, an order was given, five hundred firefighters lit the fire, and dozens of lit cars rushed to the camp.
In less than two minutes, the left camp of the Song army was completely chaotic, Chen Xizhen had done the Fa for so long, even if he had set up a high Dharma platform and was assisted by hundreds of Dao Tong, he was very tired, and he was resting in the camp tent at this time.
Seeing the fire in the left camp and feeling the traces of mana, Chen Xizhen originally wanted to do it, but before he could make a move, Qin Han had already led people to break in from the back camp, and it just so happened that this was where Chen Xizhen rested.
After Wei Dingguo's fire attack, many defensive measures were burned down, and the soldiers on night patrol discovered Qin Han, but Qin Han's charge was so fast, when they shouted, Qin Han had already rushed in.
The reason why Qin Han went to the arsenal first was to let Wei Dingguo lead people to lure the enemy, and on the other hand, he also took some things that ignited fire, rushed to the camp, and lit the tent when he saw it.
Chen Xizhen rode a war horse and took this snake spear to fight Qin Han alone, but Qin Han didn't have the kung fu to care about him, he gave up after two moves and continued to light the fire, and when the rear camp was completely burned, Qin Han had already led people to the right camp.
There are still many people in the Song army camp, but there is no master who reacts fast enough, and there is no master like Qin Han and Yang Zhi who is good at charging, and he can't stop it if he wants to.
Zhu Wu wanted to set up a formation to stop Qin Han in order to catch the turtle in the urn, but Qin Han's actions were completely unroutine, turning left and right, completely moving indiscriminately, and a thousand light horsemen in this situation perfectly exerted their mobility, so that Zhu Wu did not have time to arrange defense.
After igniting the right camp, Zhu Wu thought that Qin Han would break through from the gate of the camp, where did he think that Qin Han made a false move and took people to the left camp, where it had been burned almost and no one stopped it, but it was the best escape route.
By the time Zhu Wu found out about this, Qin Han had already left, leaving only the fiery military camp.
In the Liangshan military camp, as Guan Sheng broke through Song Jiang's Tianyi Xunjia formation, Song Jiang's two-sided attack strategy officially failed, and Song Jiang was worried that he would be captured alive, so he hurriedly changed the formation and broke out with people.
After fighting for so long, the people and horses in Liangshan were also sleepy and lacking, Song Jiang led people away, and everyone did not chase them, so they hurriedly cleaned up the camp, counted the casualties, and caught the undercover agent by the way.
The sneak attack operations on both sides were successful, and they also failed, and the Liangshan battalion had been beaten into ruins under the battle of tens of thousands of people, and there was not a single intact tent left, so they could only wait for dawn and wait for someone to send new supplies.
In addition, the casualties on the Liangshan side were not small, although there were no casualties among the leaders, but the losses of the non-commissioned soldiers were serious, the heavy cavalry lost 422 people, all of whom were killed, and the light cavalry suffered 1,856 casualties, of which more than 1,000 were killed and more than 200 were seriously wounded.
The loss of war horses was also extremely serious, even with the skill of the emperor, this battle also lost more than a thousand war horses, which made Qin Han feel distressed.
The foot soldiers suffered the most injuries, with more than 2,000 killed, more than 500 seriously wounded, and about 2,000 lightly wounded.
As for the sailors, the fight is not over yet, and no one knows what will happen.
Liangshan suffered heavy losses, and the Song army was not happy, because the soldiers were not as elite as the Liangshan soldiers, the casualties were greater, and Qin Han went to set fire to it twice, burning fifty percent of the Song army's grain and grass materials, and burning seven or eight percent of the tents, it was not so easy to replenish these materials.
In addition, during the day, the Song army lost Sun Xin, Tang Meng, Zhu Wannian, and when Qin Han attacked the camp, he killed Cai Fu and Cai Qing, and Song Jiang came to attack the camp and Shi Jin, Yang Chun, and Chen Da were captured alive, and the loss was not small.
Qin Han didn't know about the loss of soldiers, but it would definitely not be less than Liangshan.
In fact, the damage of the Song army made Song Jiang frown, and the cavalry lost more than 1,600 casualties and 3 or 400 serious wounds, in other words, 2,000 cavalry lost their combat effectiveness.
More than 3,000 foot soldiers were killed, seven or eight hundred were seriously wounded, and countless minor injuries were innumerable, and at least 4,000 lost their combat effectiveness.
Of course, this "death" is to be put in quotation marks, some of them are indeed dead, some are captured or deserted, Liangshan captured hundreds of prisoners, and the court side also captured two or three hundred prisoners.
From the beginning of the war to the present, the cavalry of the Song army has lost thirty percent, and the morale has seriously declined.
Now, Song Jiang and Qin Han wanted to know how the navy was doing.
Liu Menglong is the commander of the Jinling Water Army, with 15,000 water troops under his command, and last time he brought 3,000 water troops to help, but the whole army was wiped out, if he didn't run fast, he would have become a prisoner.
The training of the navy is not an easy task, and the three thousand sailors who lost have only now been replenished by more than a thousand.
This time, Song Jiang was ordered to exterminate Liangshan, and the mobilized navy was still Liu Menglong's, Liu Menglong gritted his teeth, leaving 3,000 sailors to guard the water village, and brought 10,000 people to support.
