Chapter 327: Riding Alone to Charge the Camp
"That's right! General Li, how many of the men and horses in the city are the general's henchmen? ”
This is what Wang Cheng is most concerned about, although Li Lin has decided to surrender, the soldiers under him are not necessarily.
Li Lin said: "Except for the six thousand locals of the Xia Kingdom, the remaining nine thousand people were originally the people of the Great Zhou, and they were completely under Li Lin's orders. ”
Zhangzhou was originally the hometown of Zhang County and Li County, and was changed to Zhangzhou after being seized by the Xia State, so ninety percent of the people in Zhangzhou were the original people of the Great Zhou.
Therefore, the defenders of Zhangzhou are naturally the majority of the original Zhou people, and these defenders are also the targets of Li Lin's wooing, after all, they have a common language.
There are only 6,000 soldiers in the Xia Kingdom, but these 6,000 people all hold important positions in the army, such as captains, lieutenants, and military marquises.
"These people can't be kept!" Wang Cheng said in a cold tone.
Li Lin's expression changed, and he said, "What the general said about the six thousand Xia people?" ”
"Not bad!"
Wang Cheng nodded and said, "If they are not of my race, their hearts will be different, and they will not have the same heart as us!" ”
"Yes...... That's 6,000 people! The general won't kill them all, will he? Li Lin's face was ugly.
Wang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Don't care about the others for the time being, those three Xia people are all lieutenants, and none of the fifteen lieutenants can be left, kill them now!" ”
At this point, he added: "If you can't do it, I'll come!" ”
"It's not that I can't do it, it's just that these people are now scattered in various places in Zhangzhou, and it is difficult to get rid of them in a short period of time." Li Lindao.
Wang Cheng glanced at Wen Zhezhu, whose breath had stabilized, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this matter, you just need to tell us their identity and location, you don't have to worry about other things, you just need to stabilize the situation in the city." ”
Li Lin walked out of the room, and when he came back, he had a thick pile of paperwork in his hand.
He took out the top roster and handed it to Wang Cheng, and said, "The list of officers of the Zhangzhou garrison centurion and above is all here. ”
Then he handed over a pamphlet and said, "This is the military defense map of Zhangzhou City." ”
Wang Cheng opened the roster, combined with the military deployment map, looked at it for a while, and nodded: "General Li has the style of a famous general, no wonder even such a military important place as Xia Guo has been handed over to the general." ”
This military defense map clearly depicts the entire military defense of Zhangzhou, and there is a camp in the northeast and southeast of Zhangzhou City.
Each camp had 3,000 defenders, all of whom were elite, and it was his lieutenant who was in charge of the defense of the camp.
These two camps and Zhangzhou City are at the same angle as each other, one side is attacked, and the other two sides can rescue in the shortest possible time.
It has been nearly twenty days since Wang Cheng took over Nanli, and he actually knows the location of these two camps, and even went to investigate them himself, but he does not know the specific situation in the camp.
Just like setting up a number of checkpoints near the camp in the southeast of Zhangzhou City, all the way to the southernmost Nanli Mountain Range, if it weren't for Wang Cheng mastering a secret passage to Liuzhou, his every move would not have been able to hide from Li Lin's eyes.
Wang Cheng handed the roster and military defense map to Wen Zhezhu again, and said: "Mr. Wen, the camp in the southeast of Zhangzhou City will be handed over to you, and the lieutenant in the city is still bothering General Li to do it himself, and I will personally deal with the rest of the camp in the northeast!" ”
Li Lin and Wen Zhezhu had no objections.
Wang Cheng said: "Okay! Without further ado, let's split up now and try to get rid of them before dawn! ”
Just before leaving, he said to Li Lin again: "That's right! Before dawn, a group of men and horses will enter the city, and General Li will be asked to cooperate with him. ”
Li Lin was shocked, has he finally reached this point?
Of course, he knew the meaning of Wang Cheng's words, and those people were the descendants that Wang Cheng used to take over Zhangzhou.
Although this day would come sooner or later, it came too quickly for him to be mentally unprepared.
He replied bitterly, "Yes! ”
It was still dark outside, and the night was like an indissolvable piece of ink.
There was still some restlessness in the city before, but after Li Lin ordered the blockade of the city, it gradually calmed down.
Although the common people heard about the previous turmoil, but the city was full of soldiers, how could they dare to make trouble?
Besides, what kind of Liuzhou lord died and what does it have to do with their people in Zhangzhou?
Even if that Lord He is killed, they will not shed a single tear, but will celebrate with a crown.
That Lord He is not a good bird, he has been an official here for many years, how many people's fat and ointment have been looted, and how many women from good families have been killed, and he died just right.
It was those soldiers who were really restless, but because Li Lin blocked the news relatively early, and the scope of the spread was very limited, only a small number of people knew the truth of the matter.
Those soldiers who were curious to know gradually lost interest with the blockade of news.
Who wants to get out of bed and ask about something that might lose their head?
Silence is always the theme of the night.
Wang Cheng went out of the city single-handedly, for Qing Lei, who had transformed into a dragon-scale horse, the distance was too close for several miles, and it would be there in a few minutes.
The camp is built next to a mound, which is both hidden and safe.
Sentry posts were set up on both sides of the fence at the main entrance of the stockade, on which bonfires were lit and guarded by soldiers.
Wang Cheng didn't hide his identity, he rode the green thunder and ran towards the gate of the village.
When the soldiers at the sentry heard the sound of horses' hooves, they immediately poked their heads out, saw that someone was attacking the camp, and quickly bent their bows and arrows.
"This is a military place, stop coming!"
"If you dare to take another step forward, you will be killed!"
Wang Cheng's speed did not decrease at all, and Qinglei was like a gust of wind, spanning more than ten meters in an instant.
The soldiers at the sentry were fully equipped with bows and arrows, but they couldn't lock on to their targets at all.
"Boom!!"
The next moment, a deafening sound sounded, and I saw the gate of the camp reduced to pieces.
Wang Cheng rode into the camp on Qinglei, and saw a brazier on a wooden shelf in front of him, holding a tiger-headed Zhan golden gun and hitting the brazier.
"Bell!"
The brazier was shattered, and the oil mixed with the wood flew everywhere.
A few fires fell on the tent, and soon the tent was set on fire, and the flames grew louder and louder.
"Oh no! Someone rushed to the camp! ”
"Stop him! Stop him! ”
Several soldiers standing at the sentry post shouted loudly and bent their bows and shot arrows.
"Woohoo!"
Feather arrows were shot, but none of them hit Wang Cheng because the speed of Qinglei was too fast.
The huge movement quickly attracted the soldiers in charge of patrolling in the battalion and outflanked Wang Cheng's advancing route.
Wang Cheng held the tiger head Zhan golden gun, swept out with one shot, and the soldiers who rushed from the left and right and the front three directions were beaten and vomited blood and flew upside down, and their flesh and blood were separated.
When the other soldiers saw this, their faces were all frightened, and they did not dare to rush forward again.
It's so brutal!
More than a dozen or twenty people killed them together, but they couldn't even catch a blow from others.
Who is he?
Wang Cheng didn't entangle with these people, his legs clamped the horse's belly, and the green thunder carried him like a gust of wind, continuing to rush towards the depths of the camp.
His goal is very clear, that is, the big tent of the Chinese army!
Because he already had a military deployment map in his mind, he knew the location of the Chinese army's big tent, and he also knew very well how many checkpoints he had to pass through from the walled gate to the Chinese army's big tent.
If he doesn't know this, even if he enters the camp, there is a high probability that he won't even be able to see the captain in the end, and if he is not careful, he will even be trapped in the camp and unable to get out.
No matter how strong the individual force is, the enemy camp is no better than other places, even if he is a peerless general, he cannot casually attack the enemy's military stronghold, otherwise he is likely to leave his life behind.
Now the biggest problem is no longer a problem, Wang Cheng knows everything about the defense in the camp.
When he reached the big tent of the Chinese army, Du Lieutenant He Ming got up from the tent, and his clothes were not properly dressed.
Wang Cheng rode the green thunder and jumped in front of the big tent, and the tiger-headed Zhan golden gun stabbed at He Ming with a "brush".
A golden light flashed, He Ming subconsciously closed his eyes, and when he opened his eyes, the head of the gun stopped in front of him, only a few centimeters away from his neck.
He Ming didn't dare to breathe, and the clothes on his back were all soaked in cold sweat at some point.
He pretended to be calm and said, "Who is Your Excellency?" ”
Wang Cheng said coldly: "Drumming! Gather troops! ”
As he spoke, the tiger head Zhan golden gun in his hand was gently sent forward, and the tip of the spear reached He Ming's neck.
Red blood flowed down his neck, but He Ming felt the slightest pain, and there was only fear in his heart.
Like a robot, he only answers, shouting downward, "Quick! Drum Gathering! ”
The halberd under the tent should get down and quickly run to the big drum not far away to pick up the mallet.
"Boom!!"
"Boom!!"
……
The sound of the drums was thick and deep, and it quickly spread throughout the camp.
Most of the soldiers who did not know the situation and were still asleep hurriedly ran out of the tents, and many of them did not even wear coats.
Soon, nearly 3,000 men and horses were neatly gathered in the center of the camp.
He Ming stood in front of the big tent, his body stiffened, but he still didn't dare to move.
However, he had shaken off the initial panic and gradually calmed down.
He secretly looked at Wang Cheng, secretly guessing in his heart, who was this person in front of him?
A horse, a spear, an armoured man, young, brave...... It's not an obscurity!
What did such a man want to do when he single-handedly entered the camp?
"Your Excellency......"
He Ming tried to squeeze out a smiling face, and as soon as he opened his mouth to say two words, his neck hurt, and his head flew into the air.
Blood gushed from the severed neck, glaring in the light of the fire.
Everyone was silent, and they didn't dare to breathe.
Their lieutenant had his head cut off in his camp right in front of their eyes.
Wang Cheng picked up He Ming's head with a shot, rode the green thunder to scan the crowd, and said loudly: "I am Wang Cheng of the Great Zhou, the general of the Great Zhou, don't be afraid!" ”
That is what was said, but none of the people below were not afraid, because they had all heard of the name.
