Chapter 11: Night Attack

Wu Cao was very disappointed in Wu Sansi's incompetence, so she shouldn't believe in Wu Sansi's waste.

"I regret not being at the beginning, I shouldn't have listened to what Aiqing said, now that the thieves are outside the city, Aiqing can have a strategy to break the enemy?"

After Wu Cao asked Wu Sansi to get out, he took the hand of the black-toothed Changzhi and said with a smile.

At the moment, she can only rely on these generals, but she still doesn't trust Cheng Wuting and Wang Fangyi very much, so she can only pin her hopes on Hei Zhi Changzhi.

Hei Tooth Changzhi has been a general in the Shuofang area for many years, resisting the Tibetans and Turks, and has never been defeated, which can be described as a great achievement, and it should not be a big problem to deal with a group of rabble!

"Queen Mother, I haven't fought with the rebels, and I don't know the strength of the rebels, and when the rain is a little lighter tonight, the minister will personally take the elite cavalry out of the city to attack the rebel camp at night. Find out the strength of the rebels first, and then the minister can make the next plan!"

Black Tooth Tsuneyuki said.

"Then do what Aiqing said, and the forbidden army in the city will be chosen by Aiqing!"

Wu Cao said.

"Obey the order!"

The Black Tooth Chang bowed and retreated.

Blacktooth Changzhi selected 5,000 elite horsemen, planning to launch a sneak attack on the rebel camp tonight.

At night, the rain stopped, and the sky was full of stars.

Five thousand horsemen put all their mounts in the mouths of their horses, and wrapped cotton cloth around their feet, so that they would not make a noise when they moved, and every man would have a dagger in his mouth.

As the gate of the eastern capital slowly opened, Heiya Changzhi led five thousand elite horsemen to rush out of the city gate, rush into the night, and kill the rebel camp.

The sneak of the night could not make a sound, and the scouts galloped towards the Blacktooth Constant.

Blacktooth Changzhi made a gesture to stop the army, and he stepped forward to ask the scout, "What's the situation?"

"There were several rebel sentries in front, each about two paces away."

The scout said.

"How far is this place from the rebel camp?"

Blacktooth asked.

"There are still 800 steps from the rebel camp here (one step in the Tang Dynasty is equal to about one meter and a half)!"

The scout replied.

"It seems that the rebels are also worried that we will sneak attack at night, so we put the sentries so far, everyone disperse first, deal with the rebel sentries first, and then kill the rebel camp as quickly as possible!"

Hei Fang Changzhi quickly made a decision, a few sentries, and so far away from the rebel camp, as long as he started quickly enough, he would definitely not alarm the rebels in the camp.

Under the guidance of the scouts, everyone began to disperse, touched the vicinity of the sentry, took the bow and crossbow on horseback, and shot a cold arrow at the sentry, killing the sentry.

Hei Tooth Changzhi led the cavalry to continue to advance, he didn't know that Li Jing not only arranged the bright post, but also arranged the dark post, and as soon as they left, an arrow broke the silence of the night and exploded in the night sky.

"Not good! There are also sentinels who haven't cleaned up, this is a bad thing, everyone rush with me!"

Knowing that the night attack had been revealed, Blacktooth Tsuneyuki immediately ordered to go straight to the enemy camp.

When the arrow exploded in mid-air, Li Jing knew that someone was attacking at night, and immediately called everyone up to prepare for battle.

"Kill!"

Hei Fang Changzhi led 5,000 elite cavalry to the rebel camp, and Li Jing ordered the cavalry of the Beiwei Army to fight.

The two sides started a battle outside the camp, and the black tooth Changzhi was secretly surprised, there was actually a cavalry with good combat strength among the rebels, no wonder they dared to rebel.

If the rebels' foot soldiers are also so strong, I am afraid that there will be a fierce battle in the future, no wonder the imperial court twice sent troops to encircle and suppress the rebellion failed, it is said that the rebels still have a big killing weapon in their hands, which can knock down the city wall.

If this is the case, it will only be more unfavorable to the imperial court, and the more the war is fought, the less confident the black tooth Changzhi becomes, can the 200,000 forbidden troops in the eastern capital really be able to stop the rebels?

Judging from the strength of the rebels now, the two sides are open, and the imperial court may not be able to stop the attack of the rebels, and there are still many people in the court who oppose the queen mother's claim to be emperor.

If these people join forces with the rebels, the consequences will be unimaginable, I am afraid that even among the forbidden army, there are many generals who oppose the queen mother's claim to be emperor, but they are forced by the situation to acquiesce to the fact that the queen mother is emperor.

Now that the rebels have the hope of conquering the eastern capital and stopping the queen mother from becoming emperor, I think many people will fall to the rebels in the future.

Han Shizhong's surprise was no less than that of Hei Zhi Changzhi, he always thought that the imperial army was nothing remarkable, and with their strength, it would not be easy to take Dongdu.

Defeating the imperial army that was larger than his own twice, Han Shizhong had the idea of underestimating the enemy, and he thought that it would not be easy for the cavalry of the Beiwei Army to attack and destroy the cavalry in front of him, but the result was greatly unexpected to him.

But after fighting with Hei Zhi Changzhi, he knew that the imperial army was far from being as simple as he thought, so he said that the cavalry in front of him had strong combat power, and his skills were not inferior to the cavalry of the Beiwei Army, and he was a strong opponent!

Such an opponent must not let him run away, he must leave the other party behind everything, and if he does not leave the other party, he will definitely become a strong enemy, and when the time comes, it will only be more troublesome to attack the eastern capital.

Hei Tooth Changzhi plans to retreat immediately, he already knows the strength of the rebels in his heart, there is no need to continue fighting, once he stays here, once he is surrounded, it will be difficult to run!

"Withdraw!"

Blacktooth often gave an order, forced his opponent back, turned around and left immediately.

Han Shizhong also wanted to take someone to chase him, but was called back by Li Jing.

"Shizi, why don't you let me chase down the enemy?"

Back at the camp, Han Shizhong asked puzzled.

"Poor Kou Mo Chase! What can you do even if you catch up with this black light, in case there is an ambush, aren't you going to die like this? ”

"By the way, how is the strength of the opponent this time?"

Li Jing asked after a few words of relief.

"The enemy's equipment, armor, weapons, and even war horses are all selected from the top, and their skills are not inferior to my back army, and it is not so easy to win against the other party."

Han Shizhong told Li Jing about the fight.

From Han Shizhong's description of the armor and weapons of the enemy cavalry who attacked at night, it can be judged that it was the forbidden army that fought against Han Shizhong, and they should have been transferred from the north to guard the capital.

The mastermind of this night attack should be the famous Tang Dynasty general Hei Tooth Changzhi from Baekje!

According to the Tang Dynasty military system, the government soldiers had the dual tasks of guarding and defending, and there were fewer wars in the early Tang Dynasty, and the government soldiers and guards became the main task.

After so many years of development, the combat power of today's government soldiers is not as good as before, but it is still good, and it can still be on par with the Beiwei army.

"These people who fought with you should be the forbidden army of the imperial court, and their combat power is naturally stronger than the average one, but it is not comparable to the local army we met at the beginning."

"In the Eastern Capital, there are 200,000 forbidden troops, and the Eastern Capital is a bone that is not easy to gnaw."

Li Jing said.

"The prince doesn't have to worry, no matter how difficult the bones are, we can still gnaw them, even if the front teeth are broken, we have to gnaw off the difficult bones!"

Han Shizhong clenched his fists and said, his heart ignited with fighting spirit!
