Chapter 17

After the order was issued, Liu Guangshi explained some details of the camp and fell asleep.

His central army is not very far from the city wall, and the enemy is still not strong enough to defend the city, so he is not afraid that the enemy will faint and come to steal the camp and attack at night.

Moreover, although his subordinates were not elite, several generals were considered good generals, and the camp was built without any leakage. It was very strict. Liu Guangshi had seen it himself and was relieved.

If there are too many enemies, there will be great movements. Before we can get close, the camp will be shocked and ready to go, and it will definitely make the other party unable to get it.

If there are fewer people coming, I am afraid that it will not be enough to fill it up, so why are you afraid?

In the night, there were no other lighting facilities except for the several fixed bonfires in the camp. In March, the weather gradually became warmer and it was still very cold at night. In the camp of the besieged army, except for a few sleepy and fishy soldiers, tens of thousands of people in the army, all crawled into the simple tent to rest. There was no other sound in the entire camp except for the slight snoring.

By the second half of the night, in addition to the faint starlight, the original half-wind moon disappeared. The campfire had long been extinguished, and the entire camp was shrouded in darkness.

A group of soldiers on duty patrolled the outside of Yingpan. It was cold and everyone shrank, placing the spear in their hands across their chests, hugging their hands together to keep warm.

There was no other sound except for their own footsteps.

This team of soldiers was surrendered from the Central Plains, followed the bandits and participated in several rebels who rebel against the Jin army. Later, most of them were defeated, and everyone followed the big friends of fellow villagers to join Liu Guangshi.

The passion for fighting against foreign races and fighting the enemy for the sake of land and relatives gradually disappeared while running around. The bandits who defected to them and the so-called rebels were both for their own interests and for the sake of less important things to fight against the Jin Dynasty. What they saw and heard in their eyes were completely different from what they thought when they first joined the army. When Liu Guangshi tribes fought fewer fights with the Jurchens, there were more bandits and rebels who suppressed them, their hands were stained with blood from their own people, and their hearts became harder. Many things were originally unaware of them, but now they were used to doing them.

Although he did not attack the city of Zhoufu, he robbed very little gold, silver and treasures. However, along the way, he swept along the way, many villages were drawn and many towns swept. Although Jiangnan was attacked by Jin soldiers and also suffered robbery and destruction, because the Jin soldiers were delayed for a short time, the so-called searching for mountains and seas was actually just a rough effort, and the people were not seriously harassed and robbed. The land of Jiangnan was already the richest place in the world at this time, with more than 50,000 people in the army. It was snatched all the way. It was impossible for everyone to have a share, and most of them returned to the officers, but everyone could benefit from the silver, money and jewelry. Although they were surrendered, they mostly worked hard, and when robbing money, no one paid attention to being Liu Shuai's old subordinate or a new surrendered army.

When they attack Lin'an again, they burned and killed and looted in such a wealthy and prosperous city. They never joined the army, but they didn't have to fight. They robbed too much and fled farther south, bought land and houses, married a wife and had sons, but they were much better than being a soldier.

When they thought of entering the city to rob, although they were assigned to patrol in the second half of the night during this cold night, everyone was also very hot and wished they could fly to Lin'an City now.

"Bang."

Just as the line was about to start, a crisp sound shocked everyone. The leading officer immediately turned around and turned around and shouted in a low voice: "What sound?"

A sergeant at the end of the team replied: "It was my spear tip that swept to the ground. I don't know what it was scraped, and it caused such a big disturbance."

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and cursed, "You guy was not careful, and you scared us."

They all came from the same place, and the officers leading the team couldn't blame him too much, so they had to persuade him in a gentle tone: "Everyone should be more energetic, and it will take another hour to pay the deposit. If something happens, we will all be scolded."

Everyone responded lazily: "Yes, we can save it."

There was nothing to say at the moment, and everyone continued to move forward.

The little army, whose spear tip scratched the hard object, slightly straightened the iron spear in his hand and continued to walk. After walking two steps, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Just now, the spear tip in his hand was not something else, but it seemed to be human armor.

He was shocked suddenly, and immediately jumped up and shouted: "No!"

Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly jumped up behind him. A cold light flashed in the dark night. A long cold knife had already slashed his neck. After a muffled sound, blood was thrown away. The soldier could no longer make a sound, and half of his body fell to the ground.

The heads fell, and the sword light flashed, and the brigade of soldiers with white cloth wrapped in arms suddenly appeared from the dark, slashing and slashing. Poor this team of more than ten patrol soldiers suddenly encountered the enemy troops attacking the camp. Shang Wei and the reaction were like the other party chopping melons and vegetables, and they were killed in a short time.

After killing the patrol soldiers, the camp was already in a state of chaos, but the night was dark and there were no traces in the dark. However, more than 200 soldiers in the camp were covered with white cloth, and they could distinguish the enemy and us even in the dark.

They kept burying into the enemy's tent, shouting loudly, and waving the big sword in their hands, killing the enemy while also making the camp even more chaotic.

When the entire camp was rolling up like boiling water, the group of soldiers attacking the camp quietly retreated from the enemy camp and arrived at the edge of the city. With a whistle, a soft ladder was hanging from the city. More than 200 people climbed up along several rope ladders and returned to the city.

Because there was no trace of people in the dark, the army outside the city had been in chaos for most of the time. Even though the generals of all units stood up and slandered their own troops, they just couldn't keep the general's morale in a while.

In the dark night, I don’t know how many soldiers died under the sword of their own people.

It was not until Liu Guangshi came to his mind and ordered several tents to ignite, so that his central army could stabilize first, and then the rest of the troops also handled the situation, which calmed the entire army and did not form a greater riot.

After hearing the change, Wang De immediately led his elite troops out of the camp and was on guard not far outside the city to prevent the enemy from coming out in large numbers and rushing across the entire camp while the chaos.

After the entire army was stable, Liu Guangshi was furious and first beat several officers responsible for guarding the night camp together, and then caused the inspection to be investigated and suffered losses.

This small night attack caused his army of more than 50,000 people to be in chaos in the middle of the night. Except for hundreds of people who died at the hands of the enemy, the remaining more than 2,000 people were mostly injured by their own swords.

He was both angry and strange in his heart. He didn't know why Miao and Liu suddenly made such progress and dared to use these small groups of dead soldiers to attack his camp at night.

After dawn, due to this great loss, the morale of the army was unstable, and it was difficult to attack the city for a while. He had to set up camps and retreated the camp for several miles, set up camps again, and tighten the camps, and send more people to guard the nighttime to guard against the enemy's sneak attacks again.

As soon as Liu Guangshi's army retreated outside the city, the imperial guards on the top of the city cheered loudly, and it took a long time to stop.

The enemy was numerous and powerful. After all, Liu Guangshi was a famous general of the world. Although he was quite humble, the defenders on the city were very scared. After this battle, he suddenly realized that this Zhengzheng was not as great as he imagined.

In this way, morale will naturally be greatly boosted.

Miao Fu was promoted to the Imperial Camp at this time and was the governor of the Imperial Camp and the governor of the Wudang Army. He issued orders one after another, ordered people to take out the warehouse to store wine and meat, and ordered each of the heroes who left the city to touch the camp last night to reward fifty cents of money. The other troops also had their own kind rewards. For a moment, the cheers were loudly heard on the top of the city, and the sounds were shocking. Although the army and horses of Liu Guangshi's troops were several miles apart, they could hear them clearly.

On the one hand, morale was high, but on the other hand, it was lost. The ancients fought with cold weapons, and the victory or defeat was actually just a slight slightest. The three armies cannot be taken away. Once morale is low, it will be difficult to recover. If Liu Guangshi's troops had not had many people and strong power, and had the benefit of indulging in robbery after breaking the city, the battle would have been decided.

Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan comforted the soldiers at the top of the city and gave them wine and meat rewards. They were fussing until evening. Seeing that there was no movement in the enemy camp in the distance opposite, the two were very happy and knew that the enemy would not have any more moves today. They felt relieved and got down to the top of the city together.

The two of them were both military governors, but Miao Fu was the commander of the Imperial Camp, while Liu Zhengyan was the deputy commander, half a lower than Miao Fu, so he was the main focus of everything. Since Liu Guangshi raised his troops south, Miao Fu has done everything very well. It was the same person who arranged the city last night. Liu Zhengyan did not take the other party very seriously, but by this time he was convinced.

The two of them walked down the city and arrived at the corner of the city. Liu Zhengyan looked at Miao Fu and smiled at him, "The matter is finished today, there is no danger anymore. But what should we do tomorrow? Please tell us."

In this way, if Miao Fu is regarded as the leader, it is also the reason why Liu Zhengyan respects Miao Fu's arrangements.

Miao Fu laughed and said to Liu Zhengyan: "Brother Liu, don't do this. In fact, Miao has arranged very little in the past few days, so he is mostly obeying other people's plans."

"oh?"

Liu Zhengyan's face changed color and asked in surprise: "Who is so powerful?"

Miao Fu looked mysterious and smiled, "This person is in my mansion. Brother Liu will meet me, so he will naturally understand."
