Chapter 47: The Great Victory (3)

This is, the sky is still a little dark, and it has not yet dawned, and the various rangers of the Yan army have also relaxed their vigilance. The soldiers in the large battalion were still asleep.

At this time, Xiao Jingxuan had already sneaked to the enemy camp not far from the army with the army, and looking at the Yan army rangers wandering around, Xiao Jingxuan began to issue military orders.

"Wait a while, I will take Ye Xiong's headquarters and the personal guard battalion to attack the enemy army and attract the enemy's attention, Gongsun Sheng, you take the headquarters of the soldiers and horses to give the enemy a fire attack, until you shoot all the arrows in the quiver."

"The last will obey."

"Attack."

After speaking, Xiao Jingxuan led the army and began to attack the Yan army's rangers.

I have to say that the Yan army really didn't expect the Wei army to raid. However, even if Xiao Jingxuan caught Yan Jun off guard, there was still no warmth.

After the Yan army rangers came to their senses, they began to assemble and launched a counterattack against Xiao Jingxuan.

Xiao Jingxuan's purpose was not to fight with the Yan cavalry. At this time, Gongsun Sheng was already organizing the cavalry under his command to shoot a rain of rockets towards the Yan army camp.

All the Wei cavalry were trying to shoot out their pockets and drink all the bows and arrows.

After fighting for a while, Xiao Jingxuan saw that Gongsun Sheng's bow and arrow were almost shot, and immediately shouted to his subordinates who were still fighting, "Retreat, retreat immediately." ”

Xiao Jingxuan was fighting hard while slowly retreating backwards.

Seeing that the army under his command was almost retreating, he led the guard battalion to retreat quickly.

Although I don't know what the casualties of the Yan army were, when I was leaving, I looked at the fire of the other party's camp, and I shouldn't be able to pull out the camp today.

After Xiao Jingxuan withdrew from the battlefield with everyone, he turned his horse's head and divided his troops with Gongsun Sheng.

At this time, Xiao Jingxuan's command only had more than 4,000 cavalry, and with a large army, Xiao Jingxuan began to march towards Yingzhou.

Because he needed to wait for the infantry in Fengzhou, Xiao Jingxuan was not in a hurry.

As the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. When Xiao Jingxuan arrived about fifty miles away from Yingzhou, he sent a large number of spies to Yingzhou.

At this time, Xiao Jingxuan hid in a mountain forest. In order to keep it secret, even the surrounding mountain people and hunters were controlled.

For these people, Xiao Jingxuan is still quite preferential, after all, these people are likely to become the people under his rule in the future.

Xiao Jingxuan's army waited in this mountain forest for seven days, and seven days later, Lei Ben led 20,000 infantry day and night, and finally came to the mountain forest and joined Xiao Jingxuan.

Looking at Lei Ben and Niu Gai, Xiao Jingxuan was not happy, but looked at Lei Ben with a frown.

"Lei Ben, you have the heavy responsibility of defending the city, how dare you leave with your troops without authorization?"

Lei Ben was also stunned, speechless for a long time.

Seeing Lei Ben like this, Xiao Jingxuan was really speechless.

"Without you in Pingzhou, the King of Jin will inevitably meddle in the affairs of Pingzhou and take over the military power of the defenders. After you are gone, to whom did you delegate military authority? ”

Lei Ben hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in a bit of a panic: "Back to the big handsome, Xu Ce has returned to Pingzhou, Jizhou has enough guards, and he doesn't need help, so ......"

Hearing Lei Ben's story, Xiao Jingxuan pondered for a moment before continuing to ask, "Did you take the initiative to ask Ying, or did you appoint it by King Jin?" ”

"Well, the last general didn't want to come, after all, the last general has a military order, but the king of Jin insisted on sending the last general to come with the strength of the trapped camp as the leader of the army. So ......"

Sure enough, he really underestimated King Jin. Now that he has no skills, it seems that he can only do this first.

Next, Xiao Jingxuan said to the guards beside him: "Go to a few people, pass on my handsome order, transfer Pan Hu, Wang Xuan, and Liu Xiu to Yingzhou immediately to listen to the order, and on the day the order arrives, you can set off." Those who resist the order will be killed. ”

Two of the guards around him immediately came out and bowed.

"The Last General's Order."

"Be careful."

Wait for the guards to retreat. Xiao Jingxuan looked at Niu Gai and Lei Ben. He walked over and patted them on the shoulder.

"You immediately arrange for the troops to rest, and tomorrow morning, we will study the strategy again."

After everyone retreated, Xiao Jingxuan paced back and forth in the military tent, thinking.

Although Xu Ce has been saddle up by Xiao Jingxuan's side in the past few years, he is from Zuo Xiaowei and has never been at ease with himself.

Xiao Jingxuan can be said to be enveloped by him in every way, and even entrusted him with the position of the commander of the personal guard battalion, but he still couldn't take his heart.

Later, after the assassination of Jingzhong, Xiao Jingxuan was alert and transferred him out of the guard camp. This expedition was even more supportive, and it was not allowed to take charge of Pingzhou.

Unexpectedly, he still lost the first move, and I don't know if King Jin plans to tear his face this time. If you tear your face, even if you take Yingzhou and defeat the Yan army, you will lose more than you gain.

Xiao Jingxuan didn't mention it for the time being, at this time, in Pingzhou City, the King of Jin sat on the handsome seat in a grand manner, and the main generals of each battalion sat on both sides. The atmosphere is solemn.

Seeing Tang Wanyi, Pan Hu and the others were quite dissatisfied, but now, Xiao Jingxuan is not there, and several people are also worried about Xiao Jingxuan's affairs, so they can't bear it.

King Jin knew the situation under the stage, but he didn't know the battle situation ahead. King Jin naturally hasn't made up his mind yet.

After all, Xiao Jingxuan's hands were holding the main force of Fan Yangjun. There were only 60,000 infantry troops in the city, which was much worse than his expectations.

However, as long as Xiao Jingxuan's war is unfavorable, then he can seize his military power. For this reason, you should also prepare yourself in advance.

In today's meeting, the king of Jin is to install the people he brought into the camps.

Hearing that the King of Jin was going to place people in the camps, the owners of each camp were dissatisfied.

"Your Highness, now it is spring ploughing, and most of the manpower of each battalion is in various places, so it is better to wait for the spring ploughing to end in ......."

The one who spoke was Qi Biao of the Tianhuo Battalion, this person can also be regarded as Xiao Jingxuan's ironcore, he was born in Fengzhou Orion, and because of his repeated military exploits, he was transferred to the guard battalion by Xiao Jingxuan for training.

Later, he was promoted to the chief general of the Tianhuo Battalion and the general of the fourth rank of strong martial arts. It can be said that Xiao Jingxuan is his Bole. Therefore, he is loyal to Xiao Jingxuan.

The rest of the generals also chimed in.

At this moment, only the sound of drawing a knife was heard in the council room. The generals were shocked, is this planning to have a Hongmen banquet?

"Your Highness is angry, in fact, it is not bad to let these people go to the battalions to practice, what General Qi said is also right, otherwise, the Beacon Battalion stationed in Pingzhou did not participate in Tuntian, it is better to send people to the Beacon Battalion to experience the training first, and after the spring ploughing is over, it will be arranged. I wonder what His Highness thinks? ”

"Okay, let's do it."

All the generals stared at Xu Ce who was speaking, and they were all thoughtful.

Early the next morning, Xiao Jingxuan met with the generals in the camp.

"The spies reported that there are now 20,000 soldiers in Yingzhou City, and the city's defenses are relatively tight. It's hard to attack.

I plan to make a sneak attack, and the army besieging Shunzhou will basically deliver grain and grass once every five days, and I plan to attack the auxiliary troops who come to transport grain. Then take the opportunity to steal the city. What do you think? ”

When everyone heard this, they also thought that this plan was good, so they agreed with it.

Seeing that everyone agreed, Xiao Jingxuan began to issue military orders.

"Everyone, pass on my handsome order, where is Ye Xiong?"

"The end will be."

"This commander orders you to lead 2,000 cavalry and 5,000 infantry to wait for the opportunity to annihilate the enemy's grain transport team, and not let a single person go."

"The last general commands."

"The rest of the ministries continue to recuperate."

Xiao Jingxuan is too close to Yingzhou now, so the interception is naturally a little farther away.

Ye Xiong is doing things, and Xiao Jingxuan is still more relieved.

After Ye Xiong received the military order, he began to march along the official road towards Shunzhou with 7,000 soldiers.

Generally, the number of grain transport teams is not large, and the number is only about 1,000 people, which is easy to ambush.

After finding a mountain forest, Ye Xiong began to ambush, still the cavalry was hidden on both sides, and the infantry was hidden in the mountain forest.

After arranging the ambush, Ye Xiong began to wait anxiously. Finally, the emperor lived up to his wishes, and the next morning, Ye Xiong saw the Yan army's grain transportation team.

The number of grain caravans was small, and the number of people was only about 2,000, and there were a large number of mule carts along with them.

It's not difficult to defeat these people, but it's rare to leave one behind.

When the Yan army entered the ambush range, Ye Xiong shot the arrow in his hand, and a Yan general on a horse fell to the ground.

Followed by. The 5,000 infantry troops ambushed in the mountains and forests also shot their bows and arrows, and the cavalry on both sides also began to charge.

There was no suspense in this battle. Victory. For the people and prisoners, Ye Xiong did not dare to make decisions on his own, but tied everyone up and escorted them to the army station.

After returning to the station, Xiao Jingxuan began to arrange, and after interrogation, Xiao Jingxuan got Yan Jun's order arrows and passwords.

So Xiao Jingxuan began to ask Ye Xiong to select thousands of people from his subordinates to serve as auxiliaries to transport grain, and he took the personal guard battalion and some of the soldiers trapped in the camp to pretend to be the people who transported grain.

After decorating it, Xiao Jingxuan felt a little like it, and then announced his departure.

Before leaving, Xiao Jingxuan told the generals that once a big battle broke out at the gate of Yingzhou, the battalions would immediately launch an attack without delay.

When Xiao Jingxuan's grain transportation team came to Yingzhou, it was already dark, and the gate of Yingzhou was closed.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Xiong pointed a knife against a captured Yan soldier and began to call the city.

After some questions and answers, a hanging basket was thrown down from the city tower, and Ye Xiong hurriedly put the talisman document into the hanging basket.

After confirming the authenticity of the documents, the guards on the city tower asked a few more questions, and Ye Xiong was also prepared and answered fluently.

After several twists and turns, the Yan army guards on the city tower finally ordered the city gate to be opened and the grain team was released into the city.

Seeing the Yan army on the city tower retract his bow and arrows, Xiao Jingxuan was also relieved. As the city gate opened, Ye Xiong and Xiao Jingxuan glanced at each other, and each knew what to expect.

The passage of the city gate is very long, about twenty or thirty meters, and before, Xiao Jingxuan knew from the ears of the spies that this Yingzhou City has Weng City.

Now, the grain transport team has entered Wengcheng, that is, it has only passed the first layer of test. Only when the second gate is opened can the gate be successfully captured.
