Chapter 32: Surprise Attack on Gaoping
Pang He did not appear on the city wall, but hid aside, looked at the situation on the battlefield, returned to the room, thought for a while, and found Qiong Ying and Lin Chong.
Pang He first said: "Do you think, judging from the current situation, where is the problem in Song Jiang?"
Qiong Ying shook her head and said, "I don't feel anything wrong!"
Lin Chong thought for a while and said, "Do you mean that most of Song Jiang's men and horses have arrived in Gaizhou, and there are no people in the defense?"
Pang He nodded and said: "Yes, there are about 100,000 people in Songjiang, how many people have arrived in Gaizhou, I think they are basically there, only a negligible number of people remained, or there was no Lingchuan County that we left for them, according to intelligence, Gaoping has also been lost, which means that Gaoping is also empty." ”
Qiong Ying said: "Then what do you mean to do?"
Pang He said categorically: "Surprise attack on Gaoping!"
Qiong Ying was puzzled: "Surprise attack on Gaoping?"
Pang He said with certainty: "That's right, surprise attack on Gaoping! We will take advantage of the night to set out and march towards Gaoping, recapture Gaoping, and disrupt Song Jiang's position!"
Qiong Ying was puzzled: "Does the privy envoy agree?"
Pang He said straight to the point: "I said something unpleasant, Niu Wenzhong has courage and no strategy, and he will never agree to such a strategy." Look at how he defended the city today, but with a brute force and no rules, if this continues, Gaizhou City will be broken sooner or later!"
Qiong Ying said: "I asked Lord Niu about this, and he meant to guard it first, and then wait until it was almost time to go out of the city to destroy Song Jiang." ”
Pang He smiled: "Do you think it's possible, he Song Jiang will definitely not be a fool." Even if it is a hard fight, who can he Niu Wenzhong beat, is it Guan Sheng or Qin Ming, is it Hua Rong or Hu Yanzhuo, is it Dong Ping or Zhu Tong? In terms of frontal charge, what I Pang He didn't dare to think about, only he, Niu Wenzhong, a reckless man, would think, but the ridiculous thing was that compared to brute force, he couldn't beat others. ”
Qiong Ying sighed: "Then why do you still want to come to Gaizhou!"
Pang He said: "It's just to confuse Song Jiang, let's bring our own men and horses the night after tomorrow, about 10,000 is enough, walk out of the West Gate, and make a detour to Gaoping!"
Qiong Ying said: "In this way, is it really possible?"
Pang He said confidently: "Yes, if Song Jiang can't be attacked, then at night, he will naturally be in a state of fatigue, and at this time, he will camp and set up camp, and he will not be so idle." Tonight and tomorrow night, what we have to do is to harass Song Jiang so that he can't get enough rest. Then, Song Jiang will definitely adjust the siege strategy and take turns to reduce the impact of harassment. If we can, we can also go out tomorrow night, specifically, we will depend on the situation. ”
Qiong Ying said: "Then, why, are you looking for me?"
Pang He smiled: "Because you are more reliable, I also need a helper, if there is only me, Sanniang and Senior Brother, it may not be so smooth, so it is of course the best to have a helper." Miss Qiu, are you willing to help me?"
Qiong Ying said with a smile: "Since General Pang has warmly invited, of course I, Qiong Ying, am willing, who called us good friends?"
Pang He said happily: "Okay, let's just say it, surprise attack Gaoping, take Gaoping!"
The matter has been decided, and Pang He, according to the plan, pretended to launch an attack in the middle of the night when Song Jiang stopped attacking the city, so that the garrison of Song Jiang's military camp could fight against it. The next day, it was still the same. But Niu Wenzhong was a little unhappy, and called Pang He to the front: "What are you doing in the middle of the night, we are the most important thing to defend the city, you do this in the middle of the night, and the next day, many people have no spirit to defend the city." ”
Pang He apologized: "I'm sorry, Your Majesty!"
Niu Wenzhong said: "Although you are the vanguard of His Highness, but here, I have the final say, do you know? In the future, without my permission, you are not allowed to act without permission, otherwise, don't blame me for being polite!"
Pang He said again and again: "Yes, yes, it will all depend on the adults in the future, I Pang He is the only one who obeys, and what the adults say to do, I Pang He will do it." ”
Niu Wenzhong said: "Seeing that you are also a talent, I won't say anything more, even if this matter is over, you can go back!"
Pang He secretly laughed, just you, can you manage me Pang He? That's it, you are also pointing fingers in front of me, defending the city, if it is really like you, it is strange that you can defend it. You still play yours, I Ponhe crosses my Ponhe's single-plank bridge, and there will be no time in the future!
Pang He called Lin Chong and Qiong Ying to the room again and told the two of them about Niu Wenzhong, Qiong Ying said: "I also know this, he is indeed a bit pedantic!"
Pang He asked, "Then would you like to do it with me?"
Qiong Ying asked rhetorically, "Are you referring to our night attack on Gaoping?"
Pang He nodded and said, "Well, yes!"
Qiong Ying gave a more affirmative reply: "I am willing to join you!"
Pang He also reminded: "If we do this, Niu Wenzhong will definitely be on the bar with us, and when the time comes, I am afraid that it will make His Highness embarrassed." ”
Qiong Ying smiled: "It's okay, this Niu Wenzhong still has to listen to His Highness, I have a good relationship with His Highness, you can rest assured." If we do a good job, Your Highness will be happy to come out and make peace. ”
Pang He said: "Okay, let's just say it, we will send troops to attack Gaoping tonight." ”
The time soon came to night, Pang Hecao ordered the people who were willing to follow him, and arranged for some people to answer and investigate at the city gate, so as to avoid the sight of Niu Wenzhong and Song Jiang, and opened the west gate without Niu Wenzhong being aware of it, and took advantage of the night to go out of the city sparsely.
After everyone was almost out, Pang He began to assemble and count, and then marched towards Gaoping County.
Things are going well, Pang He led the cavalry to attack quickly, and when he was about to arrive in Gaoping County, he stopped, carefully observed the situation, and found that Gaoping was indeed not guarded by many people, and it was very simple to capture it.
Qiong Ying admired: "You really expected things like a god, Gaoping's situation is similar to what you imagined, it seems that we can take it!"
Pang He said: "The time has not yet come, let's let our people rest for an hour, and when we recover a little energy, we will attack again, at that time it happens to be slightly bright, it is the time when their consciousness is the weakest, and it is also the best time for us to attack." ”
Qiong Ying nodded, and then arranged for the personnel to rest.
