After reporting the combat plan to the court, Miao Fu changed the deployment of troops again, canceled the deployment of the third line, and concentrated 70,000 troops to the eastern line, that is, the west bank of the canal, and built a wall-shaped camp, which was about thirty-five miles away from Li Yanqing's military camp.

At this time, the two armies had been confronting each other for seven days. At this moment, a news began to spread in the army that Li Yanqing's 50,000 troops had landed in Shaoxing Prefecture. This news caused panic among the army.

Especially in the army, there are many Shaoxing soldiers, which have a greater impact on them. The safest rear was no longer safe. They will face attacks from front and back, and the morale of the army began to shake amid all kinds of discussions.

At dusk, Miao Fu received a gold medal order from Zhao Ji, which ordered him to attack immediately, defeat Li Yanqing's main force and then retreat.

This order made Miao Fu a little crazy. Who said that taking the initiative could defeat Li Yanqing's army?

In the big tent, Miao Fu paced back and forth irritably. He wanted to resist Zhao Ji's order, but he could not resist. He could only try his best to convince himself that perhaps the order of the Supreme Emperor was a political balance that he could not understand.

Yes! He really couldn't understand. From a military perspective, since Li Yanqing had landed in Shaoxing Prefecture, the best way was to withdraw the entire army and defend Lin'an City, so that the significance of landing in Shaoxing Prefecture could be easily solved.

"General, maybe the Supreme Emperor thinks that Lin'an City cannot be defended! Especially in the palace, a fire can burn the mountains." Deputy General Zhang Quan said carefully.

Miao Fu did not say anything, Zhang Quan reminded him that Li Yanqing certainly did not dare to set fire to the mountain, but Fenghuang Mountain could not be defended. There were only walls but no city walls in the circle of Fenghuang Mountain. Li Yanqing could easily attack Fenghuang Mountain and occupy the palace. In addition, Yinlong Villa could not be defended. Once Li Yanqing's fleet broke into West Lake, Lin'an City would basically fall.

Miao Fu sighed long. He had finally admitted that the Supreme Emperor's order was also a helplessness, hoping that he could defeat Li Yanqing.

Miao Fu immediately ordered that all the commanders would gather in the Central Army's tent immediately and he would deploy a combat plan.

Li Yanqing's military camp was also built into a wall-type wall-type military camp. There are many benefits to the wall-type military camp. Although solidity is the main aspect, another advantage is that it increases the defense surface.

There were two main layers of defense surfaces in the front camp. One was that soldiers stood in front of the camp and shot arrows outside, and the second was that they stood behind and shot arrows outside over the camp and shot arrows outside.

The wall-type military camp allows soldiers to stand high on the wall to defend, with a shooting hole below, and an arrow formation behind them shoots arrows outward, thus forming three defensive surfaces.

As night fell, Li Yanqing also began to deploy troops. Cao Meng's 30,000 cavalry had already sent a large camp. At the same time, he deployed 30,000 crossbowmen and fifty small catapults on the wall.

Since the news of Cao Sheng's army landing in Shaoxing Prefecture has reached Lin'an Prefecture, Miao Fu's main army will inevitably take action, either coming to attack him at night or retreating back to Lin'an City overnight.

Time passed little by little, and gradually came to the first update. At this time, the scout came to report that the main enemy forces appeared ten miles away, with about 40,000 people, who were quickly coming to the camp.

Li Yanqing sneered and said to the generals around him: "I thought Miao Fu would take the entire army! As a result, he left some capital at home."

Gao Chong laughed and said, "If the sneak attack succeeds, 30,000 people will be enough to wipe out us."

Li Yanqing nodded, saying that was right. A sneak attack was originally an adventure that made small profits. Once the sneak attack succeeded, he could use fire attacks and kick the battalion, or even ten thousand cavalry to wipe out a hundred thousand troops. However, once the sneak attack failed, he would lose all his money.

"Since the enemy has arrived, everyone should prepare for the battle!"

"Abide by the order!"

Everyone bowed and walked out of the tent and rushed to their respective combat positions.

Li Yanqing also left the central army's tent and climbed to the observation platform.

The observation platform is located in the south of Daying. It is a three-meter-high wooden platform. It was originally a high platform used by the generals to command the army's training. Once a war breaks out, standing on the observation platform can also observe the situation outside the camp and command the army to fight.

Commanding night battles mainly involves the sound of war drums, and the battle flags are not effective, so a hundred drums were deployed under the viewing stage, ready to send orders through the sound of drums at any time. In addition, there is a gang next to the drum. The drummer is rushing to beat the gangs to be the order of archery.

A quarter of an hour later, Miao Fu led a 45,000 army to 500 steps away from the camp.

At this time, the patrols on the periphery discovered the coming enemy troops and fired gunpowder arrows into the air, burning in the sky.

Miao Fu knew that he could not delay any more at this time, so he could only fight to the death and catch the enemy off guard. He immediately drew his sword and yelled: "Kill!"

"Kill!"

The 40,000 army roared like the tide in Hangzhou Bay, and rushed towards the enemy camp hundreds of steps away. The three thousand cavalrymen rushed in front, holding ropes and swords in their hands and galloping on horseback.

Li Yanqing did not expect that the enemy troops would all attack Nandaying, which disrupted his deployment. He immediately shouted: "Let the crossbowmen on both sides of the east and west to rush to Nandaying immediately!"

There were 15,000 crossbowmen deployed inside the Nandaying High Wall, including 10,000 Divine Arm Crossbows and 5,000 pairs of ordinary military crossbows. 15,000 people were deployed on the wall, in front of the shooting under the wall, as well as the arrow formation lined up behind them, and in addition to fifty small catapults with a range of 80 steps.

At this time, the enemy cavalry had already rushed into a distance of 100 steps, and the infantry behind also entered a range of 150 steps. Li Yanqing issued a shooting order, "Shoot the arrow!"

The sound of the chong suddenly sounded, and 15,000 soldiers shot arrows out of the camp at the same time. The 15,000 arrows were like dark clouds, shooting towards the soldiers rushing towards the sky. The arrows shot into the infantry group like a storm. They screamed loudly, and the soldiers were shot into the ground one after another, and the offensive momentum suddenly stumbled.

But Li Yanqing did not take care of the three thousand cavalry in front. The crossbowman's target was the infantry group behind. The three thousand cavalry were not affected by the rain of arrows at all. They continued to run wildly, less than thirty steps from the camp.

At this moment, several torches were thrown out and fell into the trench. With a bang, the flames surged into the sky, and a sea of ​​fire suddenly lit up in the trench, forming a wall of fire that was ten feet wide. The war horses were extremely frightened and raised their hooves to stop. At this moment, fifty black thunders flew out from the camp, passed over the heads of the cavalry and fell into the cavalry formation. They exploded in a series of explosions. Suddenly, people were overturned, and the cavalry fell down. The earth-shaking explosions made the war horses neigh. The war horses were seriously frightened and turned around and ran wildly.

The black arrows shot out again, shooting towards the enemy group like a storm

At the same time when the ambush attack by Miao Fu's army was blocked, ten thousand cavalry had quietly appeared two miles south of the New Imperial Guard camp. They were not in a hurry to attack, but were patiently waiting for the signal.

Although Miao Fu led a 45,000 army to sneak attack Li Yanqing's camp, the more than 20,000 soldiers he left in the camp were not sleeping. They were packing their luggage nervously. Once the news of the failure of the stealing camp came, the 25,000 army would immediately withdraw back to Lin'an City.

At this moment, a strange army suddenly appeared in the north of the camp. Their number was about 3,000 people, and a row of 100 people were listed in 30 rows. They held the sword of the horse and walked neatly towards the camp five hundred steps away.

The patrol had already discovered them and rushed back to the military camp to report to the left-behind general Zhang Quan.

Zhang Quan became nervous and immediately mobilized ten thousand crossbowmen to rush to the northern camp wall to block this strange infantry formation.

The three thousand armored infantry team was neat and had already walked more than a hundred steps away. Zhang Quan shouted, "Be prepared for the bow and arrow, let it go!"

With a command, ten thousand arrows rose into the air and shot towards the heavy armored infantry. Three thousand infantry faced the arrows, and the arrows jingled on them and landed one after another. No soldier was shot down, and the square formation continued to move forward.

Zhang Quan panicked and ordered again, "Eat again!"

At this moment, continuous explosions came from afar, and Zhang Quan felt a little cold. They were not equipped with thunder, so this must have been a sneak attack on the enemy camp and encountered resistance.

Seeing that the arrow could not destroy the strange infantry, Zhang Quan shouted: "Spike attack!"

The military camp gate opened wide, and ten thousand spearmen came out. At the same time, someone blew the horn in the distance, "Woo"

The sound of the trumpet was an order. Ten thousand cavalry in the south were launched, and they rushed to the camp two miles away like lightning. After a moment, they rushed to the front of them. There were no soldiers guarding the camp in the south camp. The cavalry group rushed into the camp like a flood, killing the more than 15,000 crossbowmen who were left behind in the camp.

Zhang Quan suddenly realized that he had been fooled. He called the spearman out of the camp, and the remaining crossbowmen could only be allowed to be massacred by the cavalry.
