Night.

Fifty miles north of Qianyang, Xuanying.

The 4,000 troops of Shencheng Commander Xiao Zhennan have completed their encampment, and at this time, most of the Xuan soldiers have rested.

The Chinese army's tent is still brightly lit and the drums are playing.

In the center of the big tent, a group of beautiful camp prostitutes in light clothes and thin cedars are dancing gracefully to the sound of drums, and their clothes are untied.

On the first seat, Xiao Zhennan is holding his cheeks in his hand, sipping wine, and squinting to enjoy the beautiful scenery in front of him.

The generals under the tent were also drinking and laughing, pointing at the dancing prostitutes.

It was common to set up camp prostitutes in the army, Xiao Zhennan was born in a wealthy family, and he usually liked luxury and pleasure, and now he arranged a naked dance of camp prostitutes in the tent, thinking that the generals under his command would have fun.

When the wine was thick, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and a person entered with the wind.

The cold wind that blew through the tent woke up the delighted crowd, and they all looked at the tent curtain, and when they saw the people inside, they were immediately stunned.

"Manchu! You...... You're alive? Xiao Zhennan was also startled and shouted in a trembling voice.

The person who enters is Manchu.

Man Yi glanced at the group of naked camp prostitutes in the tent, and said with a blue face: "General Xiao, at the moment of the war, you are watching and frolicking in the camp, what kind of system has you become!" ”

Xiao Zhennan's body shook, and his face suddenly showed fear.

When Man Zhen was the county order, he was known for his strict law enforcement, when Xiao Zhennan's relatives broke the law, Man Zhen arrested them all, Xiao Zhennan pleaded with Man Li, but Man Zhen didn't give him face at all, and he must be handled according to law.

Later, Xiao Zhennan had no choice but to plead with Prince Luxian, and when Man Li learned about it, he rushed to behead all the offenders in advance before Prince Luxian came.

Since then, Xiao Zhennan has not said anything, but he is extremely jealous of Man Yi in his heart.

Now Man Yi suddenly appeared, and openly reprimanded Xiao Zhennan in front of the generals, Xiao Zhennan was scared, and hurriedly waved his hand to signal those camp prostitutes to retreat.

The disheveled camp prostitutes retreated gracefully, and the generals in the tent looked a little displeased, Xiao Zhennan didn't care much, so he retreated all the generals together, and then invited Man Yi to sit down with a smile.

"I heard that there was a war in the south, and Manchu disappeared and disappeared and did not know where to go, how could he suddenly appear here?" Xiao Zhennan asked curiously.

Man Yi truthfully told Xiaozhen South about how he was captured, how he was unyielding, and how Xu Han entrusted him to show goodwill and ask for peace.

"It turns out that Man Yi was captured by Xu Han, and I also said that you died on the battlefield." Xiao Zhennan's jealous expression faded, and there seemed to be a bit of irony in his tone.

Man Yi couldn't care about these, and said: "That Xu Han brought only two thousand soldiers and horses this time, and now the king of Han has sent a large army to attack Qianyang, Xu Han is suffering from the enemy on his back, and he just wants to make peace with the general, I expect that Xu Hanjun must be panicked at the moment, this is a God-given opportunity, why not the general not raise a large army, rob the enemy camp at night, and win a battle." ”

"Is there such a thing? How did Man Yi know that King Han was attacking Xu Han? Xiao Zhen looked suspicious.

Man Li told him what he had heard in the camp about Jiang Zheng's words.

Xiao Zhennan listened, but shook his head and said: "Your Majesty had a secret order to me before leaving, ordering me not to underestimate the enemy, how can I conclude that Xu Hanjun's heart is in turmoil based on the words you heard." ”

Xiao Zhennan's words made Man Yi speechless.

He knew that Xiao Zhennan was suspicious because of his capture, so he didn't dare to trust him.

And Man Yi also wanted to help Xiao Zhennan defeat Xu Han and make meritorious contributions, so as to wash away the stain of his capture and regain His Majesty's trust in him.

However, now he has no conclusive evidence to support his judgment.

After pondering for a moment, he said: "Doesn't the general just want definite evidence, if I come up with evidence that convinces the general, will the general adopt my strategy?" ”

Although Xiao Zhennan had a festival with Manchu, but he did not have a festival with meritorious service, if he could really defeat Xu Han in one fell swoop, be ashamed of Prince Luxian's blood, and raise his prestige Xiao Zhennan, why not.

After a pause, Xiao Zhennan said: "If this is the case, I should send troops." ”

A smile tugged at the corners of his mouth.

……

The next day, it was dawn.

The scout sent back information early in the morning, and Xu Hanjun really pulled out the camp and went south as Man Yi said, and retreated twenty miles to show his sincerity.

In the afternoon, Xiao Zhennan led his army to Xu Han's abandoned camp, intending to camp here and press on the other party step by step.

Not long after the order was conveyed, Man Li rode over and said excitedly: "General Xiao, the evidence is conclusive, it's time to send troops?" ”

"Where's the evidence?" Xiao Zhennan was suspicious.

Man Li jumped off the horse, pointed to the small dirt pits around him and said, "The evidence that the general wants is these military stoves left by Xu Han. ”

"Military stove?"

Xiao Zhennan looked around Siye, his expression became more and more dazed, and he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"I have just ordered people to count the military stoves, and all the stoves add up, which is only enough for more than 1,000 people to make fire, which means that the situation in Qianyang must be very urgent, forcing Xu Han to secretly send troops and horses to help, which means that the soldiers and horses in Xu Han's hands are only more than 1,000, general, isn't this enough to make him make up his mind?"

Man's words woke Xiao Zhennan up completely.

Although his ability to use troops is not as good as that of Prince Luxian, he is also familiar with the art of war, and he is quite capable, so how can he not understand the importance of what Man Li just said.

Xu Han originally only brought 2,000 soldiers and horses, but now there are 1,000 less, so it seems that Man Li's speculation is completely correct.

The heaven-sent opportunity is the time to use the army.

Xiao Zhennan's expression suddenly rose resolutely, and he shouted: "Pass on the general's order, tonight the whole army is full of food, rob the enemy camp at night, and the general will personally cut off Xu Han's head to avenge Prince Luxian!" ”

The night is like splashing ink.

Five hundred cavalrymen stood solemnly on the west bank of the water, only the sound of wind and water in their ears, and the four fields were frighteningly quiet.

Xu Han stood on his horse and crossed his sword, staring coldly at the brightly lit camp on the opposite bank.

The moon disappears, the time passes minute by minute, and the night is still dead silent.

The cavalry behind him gradually began to be restless, and the original iron will was quietly wearing away with the passage of time.

Only the tower-like body in front of him stood still, calm as a mountain.

Xu Han's calmness made the knights' restless mood gradually calm down a lot.

"Since following General Xu, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he can be invincible, and this time, it's the same."

In the hearts of the knights, they comforted themselves like this.

The wind picked up, and the cold got heavier.

Xu Han's blade-like eyes suddenly moved.

The camp on the other side finally made a move.

The sound of shouting and killing faintly rose, and under the light of the fire, there seemed to be a meteor shot out of the camp, which was the light of the arrows, and then, the rumbling war drums, the roaring horses' hooves suddenly rose, and countless black shadows came out of the night and attacked the camp.

It was the fiercest attack that the 4,000 Xuan Army was launching against Jiang Zheng's 1,000 infantry army.

"Xiao Zhennan, you still fell for it." A sneer appeared on the corner of Xu Han's mouth.

Whether it was Jiang Zheng's disclosure of intelligence or the so-called reduction, it was actually Xu Han's strategy to lure the enemy.

There is only one purpose, that is, in order to make Xiao Zhennan mistakenly think that Qianyang is in danger, Xu Hanjun's heart is in turmoil, and he has to use all his troops to rob the camp.

Defeating the strong with the weak, only by surprise can win, how can Xu Han forget this.

Seeing that Xiao Zhennan had been decided, Xu Han did not stop at all, and immediately ordered the whole army to rush along the muddy water and look north.

The water flows from north to south, and the terrain on the east bank is relatively flat, so the two armies are fighting, and they will camp on the east bank of the water.

In order to avoid the scouts and reconnaissance of the Xuan army, Xu Han deliberately waded across the river and approached the Xuan army from the west bank, and traveled all the way, but did not bump into a Xuan army scout.

It was about to dawn, and the shadow of the Xuanying banner finally appeared on the other side of the river.

Xu Han ordered his soldiers and horses to walk in concealment, taking advantage of the darkness before dawn to sneak behind the Xuan camp before wading across the river.

When the east turned white, Xu Han and his five hundred knights who had been hurrying for more than an hour finally quietly appeared behind the Xuan army.

In the field of vision, the Xuan army was silent, completely defenseless.

At this moment, almost all the Xuan army was attacking the Xu Han army camp in the south, and the Xuan army left behind in the camp was only five or six hundred people.

Xu Han took a deep breath, jumped across the knife, and shouted loudly: "The athletes of the Xu family's army, at this time, they will kill all the enemies with their generals!" ”

"Kill all the enemies!"

"Kill all the enemies!"

Five hundred knights, blood boiling, let out the loudest roar in unison!

The long knife slashed forward, and five hundred iron horsemen burst out!

Xu Han shot out like a black bolt of lightning, and five hundred iron horsemen followed, like a huge black iron spear, through the last touch of night before dawn, and swept towards the defenseless Xuan camp.

Those who remained in the camp were only Manchu and 700 Xuan troops.

Xiao Zhennan believed in Manli's strategy and went to take away the elite main force of the Xuan army, but he was afraid that Manchen would share his merits, so he left Manli to guard the camp.

Man Yi didn't mind, he was pacing in the tent at this time, anxiously waiting for the news of Xiao Zhennan's victory.

According to Manchu's speculation, it is definitely not a problem to defeat Xu Han's 1,000 panicked people with 4,000 elites in the south of the sky.

However, a few hours had passed since the troops were dispatched, but there was still no good news, which made Man Li gradually feel that something was wrong.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed into the tent and shouted in panic: "General, no, there are countless cavalry from the north who are killing the camp. ”

"What?"

Man Yi was taken aback, but he didn't believe it, so he hurriedly put on his tent and rode his horse to the north of the camp.

When Man Li saw the dust in the sky and heard the rumbling horses' hooves, his face turned white with shock for a moment, as if he had seen the most incredible and terrible thing in the world.

It's Xu Han's cavalry!

However, he obviously didn't go back to Qianyang, how could he appear here, how could this be possible.

Man Yi was deeply shocked in his heart, and he had to admit that he had fallen for Xu Han's strategy.

"This Xu Han is so resourceful that I have been hit twice, if I lose today, what face will I have!"

Horror and shame filled his chest, and under the crisis of the situation, Man Qi didn't have time to think about it, so he had to drink and order the frightened soldiers to quickly line up to fight.

Only, it's too late.
