Chapter 130: Night Attack on the Enemy Camp
The stove in Si Ming's tent was burning, He Mengxi came into the tent, and there was a warmth on her face, she stood in front of the stove and warmed her hands on the stove.
He Mengxi glanced at Si Ming who was lying on the bed, Si Ming's distracted eyes were looking straight and stunned, looking like he was loveless.
"His Royal Highness King Wei, don't be angry, King Pingnan is also good for you, your injury is so serious, you must take good care of it, and when the injury is healed, you will come back."
He Mengxi comforted him warmly.
"He, what about people?" Si Ming's eyes didn't move, and his voice was extremely indifferent.
"You mean Ling Zixu? He has already gone back, his cavalry battalion is stationed ten miles away, and he has just settled down, so he can't go back if he doesn't go back! He Mengxi pulled a chair and sat by the fire, warming his hands while talking to Si Ming.
"You want me to go back too?"
He Mengxi knew what he wanted to hear, but she could only disappoint him.
"You have to go back, your body is important, there is a lack of medicine here, how can it be compared to the capital of Shu Kingdom, don't think about the rest, it is right to recuperate with peace of mind."
"Hmph......" Si Ming sneered, and his eyes finally moved.
He looked at the woman beside the stove with red cheeks, beautiful eyes, and bright and delicate, and finally sighed.
"In that case, it's okay, it's just that I don't know when we will meet when we will meet, is this the end of the fate between you and me?" Si Ming's voice was weak, full of boundless disappointment.
"What did Your Highness say, when you are healed, there will be many opportunities to meet, but now is the time when the war is tight, and the future outcome is unpredictable, so ......"
"So, the future is uncertain, the so-called marriage, maybe it will be empty then, is it Si Ming who is abrupt......"
Si Ming suddenly couldn't speak, and his throat seemed to be blocked by something.
He Mengxi said softly: "The coming day is long, it is important for you to recuperate, why bother with this......"
Before he finished speaking, suddenly there was a shouting sound outside, as if he was gathering soldiers, and in confusion, Li Qian came in with a curtain.
"Your Royal Highness Princess, there is an abnormality in the Chen State Barracks!"
He Mengxi glanced at Si Ming: "It's not early, King Wei should rest as soon as possible!" ”
Si Ming had to nod
He Mengxi strode out: "Thinking that they should also move, let's go, let's go and see!" ”
The two led a team of men and horses, watched in front of the battle, and from a distance, they saw countless torches gathered in the Chen Guo's military camp opposite, as if they were building some kind of work.
At this moment, the spies came to report that they had seen a large number of rolling logs and cobblestones in the Chen Guo barracks.
He Mengxi nodded, it seemed that a big battle was inevitable, the two of them returned to the camp and discussed the strategy of breaking the enemy overnight.
The next day, Ling Zixu came to the camp of the rebel army early, and he set up camp and set up camp behind the rebel army, forming a trend of cornering.
There was also a carriage with him, and Si Ming was carried into the carriage and went to Shu to recuperate.
When he got into the car, this young man actually cried a handful of snot and tears, looking at He Mengxi, and his feelings of farewell were indescribable.
Ling Zixu personally escorted him for ten miles, persuaded him with kind words, and sent a team of cavalry to escort him.
Rare good weather, the sun is shining on the earth, and the snow and ice are beginning to melt.
When Ling Zixu returned, He Mengxi, Li Qian, and Ji Fan discussed the military situation in the Chinese military tent.
Ling Zixu was very surprised when he heard the movement in Chen Guo's military camp, but after a little thought, he had a countermeasure.
"Rolling stone logs, which are often prepared by the defending army, are now facing each other, and we are in a high place, and those things are useless, or are they thinking that we will attack, and we will be on the defensive? This is also easy to do, and when the snow and ice melt away, I will attack the enemy camp at night and take him by surprise! ”
Ling Zixu said it lightly, as if everything was out of the question.
Li Qian shook his head: "It's not that simple, they built a chariot overnight, and a catapult, obviously to attack, only because of our high terrain, so they want to do this." ”
Ling Zixu glanced at He Mengxi: "I'm here to bring a batch of heavy crossbows, this thing has a long range and extremely strong lethality, which is enough to deter Chen Guojun, and there are killer weapons in the big team behind, if it can be delayed for a few more days, it is best!" ”
He Mengxi looked at him with each other: "Two pairs of confrontations, how can you be lucky, you can't wait for the enemy to show mercy, I think, if you want to defend, you must attack, I agree with your strategy, tonight at midnight, attack the enemy camp at night, give him a dismount first, he will not dare to act rashly." ”
Ling Zixu clapped his hands and smiled: "You and I coincide, when the time comes, you stay still, I will lead the cavalry alone, come to him and step on the enemy camp, you are waiting for my good news here!" ”
He Mengxi looked firm: "I'll go with you." ”
"Uh-huh, uh-huh......" Ling Zixu waved his hand again and shook his head again.
Ji Fan and Li Qian looked at He Mengxi in surprise.
He Mengxi smiled slightly: "We are the main army, how can we let the guest army fight, we sit here and enjoy the results alone, there is no such reason." ”
Ling Zixu groaned slightly, and smiled slightly: "It's okay, two senior brothers, don't worry, I will protect the safety of the princess, besides, the princess is mighty, if you talk about martial arts alone, I am not an opponent, but when it comes to using soldiers, I dare to take the lead, which is also complementary and insufficient." ”
Ji Fan and Li Qian looked at each other, and said in their hearts, what they said was true, in fact, they were not worried about He Mengxi's safety, they felt that He Mengxi, as the commander-in-chief, was in danger and there was no need.
He Mengxi raised his hand: "It's decided, the two senior brothers are stationed in the camp to prevent the enemy from attacking the camp." ”
Ji Fan and Li Qian nodded yes.
The discussion was decided, and Ling Zixu returned to the camp to prepare, manipulate the men and horses, and familiarize himself with the terrain.
When the night is dark, in the dead of night, a lonely bright moon hangs high in the night sky, from the rear of the righteous army camp, in the cavalry camp of Shu, the flag rolls up, the cloth wraps the horse's hooves, the figure is sufficient, the military horses are endless, and the silence comes out.
The snow had not yet melted, and two thousand cavalry, cautiously, quietly approached the Chen State camp.
Yesterday was still building at night, and it was finally completed, and it was rare to rest for a night, and it was very quiet in the Chen Guoying village, even if they were patrolling at night, they also leaned on each other and took a nap.
The few fires at the door had also been extinguished, and the entire barracks were as silent as death.
It's just that in the big tent of the Chinese army in the center of the barracks, the lights are still bright, and more than a dozen people dressed as generals are sitting together, and in the top position, there is a general with a majestic look, thick eyebrows and cold eyes, thin cheeks, short hair under the chin, and an imposing general, who is the commander of Chen Guo, and is now named the king of Qi.
He was teaching people with great vigour, and he was so aggressive that the generals sitting below did not dare to raise their heads.
