197. Burning grain and grass, defeating the rebel army in a night battle
In Andu, there was a rumor that caused panic, that is, Bai Xingxing's defeat, and later, it evolved into Bai Xingxing's entire army being wiped out, and Bai Xingxing had surrendered to the enemy. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
All kinds of rumors were flying all over the sky, and even Emperor Changxing was affected, and he asked his ministers: "Zhong Aiqing, what do you think?"
The right prime minister came out of the class: "Your Majesty, before the expedition, Immortal Master Mo Xian had predicted the scene here, although I opposed him, but his words are good, he will be outside, the military order is not accepted, Your Majesty should ignore it." ”
An imperial historian said: "Your Majesty, I don't understand military, but the voice of the people must be heard, and the necessary punishment should still be punished. ”
Da Sima stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, yesterday's battle report has arrived, at present, our army and the rebels have fought two battles, the first battle beheaded the opposing generals, and the second battle is just a draw, and it is currently in a stalemate. At present, it is not to send a messenger, but to resolutely suppress these rumors. ”
Knowing that it was false, these ministers were divided into three factions, one faction supported Bai Xingxing, saying that these rumors were a trick of the enemy, with the purpose of shaking the emperor's trust in Bai Xingxing, one group advocated strengthening management and being more suspicious of Bai Xingxing, and the other faction did not say a word.
Seeing this, Emperor Changxing remembered what Mo Xian said, and finally made up his mind, ignored these issues for the time being, issued a holy decree, and asked Jing Zhaoyin to strictly discuss this matter.
On the surface, a turmoil was pressed down like this, and under high pressure, Andu seemed to be a lifeless city.
At the front line, Bai Xingxing was also looking for fighters, and a month later, he seized a fighter plane and quietly sent his disciple Guan Chezhi, accompanied by four monks, and three thousand cavalry, to attack the enemy's grain storage ground at night, seventy miles away.
This is also thanks to Tang Yu under Mo Xian, although the soldiers are not allowed to go out of the camp all day, but the battle between the monks has not stopped, the battle between the demon cultivator and the Taoist Buddha continues to occur, the two sides have injured each other, Mo Xian did not move, most of them are low-level monks, the war is more cruel, Tang Yu is in this case, in order to avenge a monk, as a result, killed and injured a lone monk on the other side, during the pursuit, unintentionally found the location of the opponent's military rations, after killing the demon cultivator, he told Mo Xian the news, Mo Xian knew the importance of the grain and grass of the three armies, and after careful inquiry, he quietly went out to investigate, and found that the other party only had 3,000 soldiers and horses, and it was the alliance of Wu and Yue, the discipline was loose, the heart moved, and quietly retreated.
After Bai Xingxing learned all this, he decided to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses by Guan Chezhi, led by Tang Yu, with Zhou Zhang cooperating, and the other two were senior monks of the Dharma generation.
In order to keep secrets, these 3,000 soldiers and horses went out in the form of defensive adjustments, and the large battalions were not together, but were divided into three battalions on the left, center, and right, and checked for several miles, like horns, and it was normal to adjust the defense between them.
Three thousand cavalrymen with the rank of knight, the horse wrapped their hooves, quietly came to the tiger leaping in, a shout, rushed into the camp, set fire, the enemy also has monks, but only low-level monks, and there are only two people, just rose and escaped, was cut to the ground by Zhou Zhang, there is no chance at all, ordinary soldiers are like headless flies, and Da'an's cavalry is like a fierce god, the general of the guard is still sleepy-eyed, I don't know what happened, I heard the chaos outside, the fire rose to the sky, he was excited, even the armor didn't know where it was, his men brought the war horse, he climbed up, at this time a loud shout, he didn't understand what was going on, a general rushed up, raised a knife in his hand, and cut him off the knife.
He didn't even know who died at his hand, the whole night's granary caught fire, the hay also caught fire, the fire shone for dozens of miles, Bai Xingxing, Mo Xian and the generals were anxiously waiting, the soldiers were standing in rows in the night, one by one in armor, and the battle robes were neat.
Mo Xian's heart moved, knowing that the sneak attack was successful, he nodded towards Bai Xingxing, and flew straight into the sky, Yu Yue, Bai Shuge, and Hui Ming still had a few people guarding Bai Xingxing's side to prevent someone from sneaking up, and the rest of the monks rose into the air with him, flying straight towards the air passage between the enemy and Tiger Yueli.
Bai Xingxing waved his hand: "Soldiers, now the time for meritorious service has come, I have sent Guan Chezhi to lead three thousand soldiers and horses to attack the enemy's granary at night, and now the fire is on, you see, that piece of sky lights up, indicating that they have succeeded, the enemy has no food, let's set off, give a fatal blow to the enemy's camp, let's go!"
In an instant, the torches were lit, the soldiers let out a shout to the sky, and the whole army came out, but Mo Xian had blocked the demon cultivator who was going to reinforce, at the moment of the fire, someone woke up Lei Po, Lei Po heard that something had happened in the tiger leap, his face turned white all of a sudden, and the grain and grass of his army of tens of thousands were all in the tiger leap, and the soldiers were a little tired of war recently, but the other party was like a turtle, and he couldn't avoid the battle, and he was having a headache how to force out Bai Xing.
Now he was stunned, he understood that if he didn't retreat, he probably wouldn't be able to retreat tomorrow, he hurriedly raised his account, first sent out the demon cultivators, let them go to save Tiger Yueli, and save as much as he could, he knew that in this group of demon cultivators, some people would call for wind and rain, and now he had to be a dead horse as a live horse doctor, at the same time, he gave an order to go down, wake up the soldiers, prepare to retreat, retreat to the Jiepai Pass, if he can successfully retreat, to the Jiepai Pass, he can breathe a sigh of relief, now he has to count on Bai Xingxing to be unprepared.
At this moment, a shout was heard, the camp was broken at once, all the arrangements were useless, the camp was in chaos, the tents were set on fire, the soldiers completely lost their minds, the camp roared, everything was out of control, even if the gods came, there was nothing they could do, his eyes were dull, his subordinates were fast, he pulled him, sent him to the horse, and began to break through.
Mo Xian and a group of monks intercepted the demon cultivator in the air, and Mo Xian smiled: "It's so late, where are you going!"
The demon cultivators looked at each other, the miserable green light flashed, the green glowing ghost fire floated up, Mo Xian waved his hand, and there was a loud bang, sweeping away the surrounding demon atmosphere, and the monks under his command each sent a treasure light, fighting with the demon cultivators.
The demon cultivators looked down and saw that the camp was on fire, and knew that the general trend had gone, so first one of the demon cultivators fled, and then they each drove away in all directions. (To be continued.) )
