Chapter 381: No Prisoners
Xu Jingzong has been in vain this day, and he believes that since Suo Wuxuan is willing to come to see him, he will definitely give himself the result he wants.
As for what the result is, the answer is self-evident. Ignoring Jiang Gan's gaze as if he wanted to kill, Xu Jingzong only felt comfortable all over, and he had a good conversation with Su Wuxuan.
The two discussed for most of the day, and finally reached a consensus on some things. ………… On the day he returned to the city, he invited the stalwart general Zhang Qi to have a banquet until late at night, and rewarded the three armies in advance on the grounds that the war was approaching.
Countless beef and mutton were sent to the Gaochang army stationed thirty miles north of Xizhou City. That night, Gaochang's 8,000 soldiers somehow slept soundly.
Even Jiang Gan secretly took a light cavalry of 1,000 people into the place where the camp was defended for thirty miles, and there was still no reaction in the Gaochang camp.
Of course, it was impossible for them to react, because the beef and mutton that had been sent to the Gaochang defender's camp had already been seasoned.
For the things sent by the City Lord's Mansion, the defenders of Gaochang have always been defenseless. Because it is not once or twice that Suo Wubuli has rewarded the three armies like this, and the reputation of Suo Wubao in Xizhou in the past few years is really good.
And Su Wuli didn't dare to add too many condiments to it, but just made them sleep a little heavier than before.
In the middle of the night, the tent of the Gaochang army seemed to be much quieter than usual. As usual, the brigade commander who patrolled the camp led a team of soldiers under his command to inspect the perimeter of the camp.
And there are dozens of patrol teams like this in the entire Gaochang garrison battalion. In wartime, scouts released a hundred miles, this is the law of the army, and now although it is not wartime, the Tang army is eyeing two hundred miles away, which is already the consensus of the Gaochang army.
With scouts hundreds of miles away to report news at any time, the brigade commanders patrolling the camp tonight couldn't help but be a little casual.
The brigade commander of one of the teams just hurriedly took his men around a few times, and then found horse manure and built an open fire.
Then he stood in front of the open fire lit by horse manure and cursed. Brigade Marshal: "Donkey grass, why do you feel so tired today, you can't do anything." Gao Changyu: "My subordinates also feel this way, and they always feel that their eyelids are fighting." Gao Changyu said: "Maybe it's too much pressure, the Tang army was stationed in Xiaogazihai yesterday, and they were afraid that the Tang army would kill them when they came, and they hadn't rested much until now under fear." Gao Changyu: "Don't worry, there are scouts staring at them......" Brigade Marshal: "Okay, don't think about this, if the Tang Army really comes, it's a big deal, hurry up and warm up your body, it's time to change your guard in a while." ”…… However, what they didn't know was that the scouts discharged by Gaochang had been harvested by Jiang Gan and the Tang army with a thousand horsemen.
And the content of their conversation was also listened to word for word by a motionless person buried under the sand in the distance.
When the patrol team walked away, the man lying under the sand got up slightly, shook the sand on his body, and then
"Phew" out of a mouthful of yellow sand. Then he turned and ran in the opposite direction to the patrol, and in a short time he ran behind a sand dune, and led a horse out and galloped away.
Not only here, but there are such people in several directions in the Gaochang camp, and there is no doubt that they are all scouts of the Tang army.
Half an hour later, a huge sand dune was ready, and a thousand light horsemen were ready to go. The human rank was grassy and the horse was bitten, and there was not a trace of chaotic sound.
Even the sound of breathing seemed to be hidden by the night.
"Report, General, it has been found that the team of the Gaochang patrol camp is rotated every half an hour, with a total of thirty-six teams." The scouts of the Tang army returned one after another, bringing the same news.
It was a very normal thing for the generals of the Tang Army, and Jiang Gan was no exception. Hearing the news that the scout had brought back, Jiang Gan's eyes flashed with a fierce look, and then asked the soldiers around him to take out an hourglass.
He lowered his voice and ordered the whole army: "Thirty miles away from the Gaochang camp, a charge can reach, everyone listens to the order, tonight, do not accept prisoners!" ”
"Yes." Tang Jun, who was a thousand people, nodded slightly, and responded with a faint hint in his mouth, but all of them clenched the horizontal knives in their hands.
Seeing that the hourglass was then exhausted, Jiang Gan pulled out the horizontal knife in his hand and pointed it at the sky. The horizontal knife was suddenly reflected by the moonlight, reflecting a trace of coldness.
Jiang Gan raised his horizontal knife and swung it fiercely towards the Gaochang camp, and the 1,000 Tang Army soldiers behind him launched a charge towards the Gaochang camp.
Thirty miles away, within easy reach. In addition, the Tang army had already figured out the time for the Gaochang army to patrol the camp to change the guard, and used the gap in the change of defense to make a time difference.
Therefore, until the sound of the horse's hooves of the Tang army's charge was close to the Gaochang camp for ten miles, there was still no reaction in the Gaochang camp.
Ten miles, eight miles, five miles, Gaochang language: "enemy attack~" Finally, the rotating brigade commander heard the roaring horses' hooves, and suddenly screamed in horror.
At the same time, the herald under the brigade commander also sounded the gong in his hand to warn. But it didn't seem to be of any use, the entire Gaochang camp seemed to have fallen asleep, and even if the herald struck the gong loudly, there were still not many people who woke up.
And most of the people who woke up were sluggish, and they didn't wake up at all. Many Gaochang soldiers had just woken up from their dreams, and before they had time to come back to their senses, they had already seen the Tang Army's war horses close in front of them.
"Enemy Attack ~ Enemy Attack!"
"Prepare for war, prepare for war!" The panicked voice suddenly sounded in the camp, but unfortunately it was useless.
The condiments that Su Wudei added to them were not added for nothing, and even if the soldiers of the Gaochang army came to their senses, they were all weak as if they wanted to transition.
In addition, at this time, the camp was in chaos, and it was impossible to organize an effective counterattack. But the Tang army had already crossed the rejection of the camp like a grim reaper, and as usual, after three waves of cavalry shots, the Tang army's formation changed to a cone.
The 1,000 Tang Army soldiers led by Jiang Gan were like sharp arrows and plunged into the Gaochang camp.
This kind of thing is a familiar thing for the Tang army. Although the Tang army is only 1,000 people, in the case of the Gaochang battalion, let alone 1,000 people, even if there are only 100 people, Jiang Gan dares to take it into battle.
The Gaochang battalion became more and more panicked, and could not organize effective resistance at all. There was a lieutenant in the Gaochang army who erected the banner of the backbone general and beckoned everyone to move closer to the commander's flag.
But before he could shout, he was slashed by the horizontal knife in Jiang Gan's hand that flashed past him, and in an instant, his body was separated.
And the handsome flag that was just raised by the captain was also split in two by the horizontal knife crossed by Jiang Gan.
