Eight hundred and fiftieth chapters sunrise in the east (80)
Wei and 20,000 cavalry went straight to Fufeng County. As he got closer and closer to Fufeng, attacks on him became more and more along the way. Small groups of local troops approached tentatively. In the middle of the night, in the early morning, they began to attack his logistics supply team again and again. In the many counties in Liaoxi, including Liaoxi County, the Liaoxi County, were frequently mobilized and had the intention of gathering troops to invade him.
Although the opponents are on the verge of being in trouble and often unexpectedly attacks caused certain losses to Wei He, Wei He also took the opportunity to connect and annihilate several small-scale local troops of the Eastern Expedition Army. But the more this happens, Wei He is more happy. His decision is right and he is moving towards Fufeng. As expected, they are like stepping on the tail of the Eastern Expedition Office. They have to gather troops to fight against him. This is something that Wei He has been seeking since entering western Liaoning.
Wei He accelerated his advance and arrived in Fufeng County on October 26. Fufeng County, as Gao Yuan's starting place, has now left here and moved to Jishi City, but Fufeng's special status has not changed. There is not only a temporary young and strong team, but also a battalion of regular troops stationed. When Wei He arrived at Fufeng City, he just took a look and felt that he was right. The East Envoy may not be too heartbroken for throwing away other places in western Liaoning, but he will never allow Fufeng to be misunderstood. Now, the East Envoy troops gathering here are a clear proof.
Wei He looked at the troops gathering from all over the country and the scouts had already clearly discovered that these troops were just young and strong recruited temporarily. They did not even have a military flag and held various weapons. Although there were many people, they were not afraid at all. Wei He decided to wait quietly under Fufeng City for the Eastern Expedition troops to rescue Fufeng's siege. He wanted to destroy these troops in one battle.
Using the power of the horse team, they can certainly be divided and wiped out. But if you only need to destroy one or two of them, the rest will inevitably become frightened birds and will inevitably disperse. At that time, it will be difficult to gather them together again.
Wei and the army set up a camp outside Fufeng City, searching for materials everywhere, and began to make siege equipment, showing that they would never leave without Fufeng.
In Fufeng City, Luo Feng, an officer in charge of guarding Fufeng City, was facing a great enemy. Since he learned that Wei and 20,000 cavalry rushed directly to Fufeng City, he stayed on the city without taking off his armor to arrange defense matters. In Fufeng County, there was a battalion he led, which was called Fufeng Camp. As a noble starting force, Fufeng Camp had a glorious tradition and great reputation. Later, the army of the war was reorganized, and Fufeng Camp withdrew from the combat troops and became subordinate to the direct jurisdiction of the Zhengdong Prefecture. It was stationed in Fufeng.
Although Luo Feng only led one battalion's troops, his military rank was the same as the commander of the field troops, and the equipment of Fufeng Battalion was much stronger than that of ordinary field troops. As such a commanding general, he knew more or less about the overall planning of this battle. Although he had a clear mind, the cavalry could become infantry when dismounted.
As a county directly under the jurisdiction of the East Prefecture, Fufeng naturally had many privileges that were not available elsewhere. At that time, too many young and strong people joined Gaoyuan's team, and the Fufeng old army composed of these people was also the one who lost the most in the war in the past decade. However, those who survived, without exception, became the backbone of the army. Even if they retired due to injuries, this is the most fanatical area to support Gaoyuan.
Being an official here is a kind of honor, and of course, it is also a kind of pressure, because an old woman selling rural goods on the street can directly knock on the door of Gao Yuan, the governor of the East Prefecture of Jishi City.
Wei and the cavalry were approaching. Fufeng County Magistrate Dong Haicao had long ordered the people in the countryside villages to gather in the county town. The reason given was that the enemy was approaching and there was a possibility of breaking the city. The county town needed the people to come here to help the officers and soldiers protect the governor Gao Yuan's old house. If for other reasons, the people here may refuse to enter the city because they miss their family business and their land had not had time to harvest crops, but the people would not refuse this reason.
Sure enough, the order was reached, and the people from all over the countryside, men, women, young and old, each carrying weapons and gathered in endlessly into the city. The speed was so fast that the county officials were dumbfounded, so that some necessary preparations had not been completed. A large number of people had gathered in the county town, which made Dong Haicao and his subordinates very busy for a while.
Although he knew that this big battle would not be used for them, Dong Haicao still organized these enthusiastic people into ranks of ranks based on the village as a unit.
Wei He came, but the city was full of fighting spirit.
The mouth of "kill all the invaders" sounded from time to time in the city.
Dong Haicao and several officials walked out of the county government office, looked up at the sky with drizzling autumn rain, and felt the coolness. Just now, a spy from the inspector sneaked into the city and brought the news he had been looking forward to.
The autumn rain was bleak. Most of the people who came to the city had thin clothes and there was not enough space for them to live in. Many people were holding weapons. Dong Haicao had to go out of the house and patrol to solve some temporary problems anytime and anywhere.
At the top of the city, Luo Feng stood with a knife, and Qiuyu flowed down his helmet and armor, gathered into streams under him, and then flowed into the distance.
At night, the rain was getting heavier, but Wei He felt a little uneasy. Half of the dozen scouts he sent had not returned yet, or they were lost because they were unfamiliar with their lives, or they might have been ambushed and attacked by the enemy and died.
There was no panic in Fufeng City because of his arrival. The troops who went out to sweep the raids brought back the news, without exception, that the villages around the county had long been gone, and everything was showing that Fufeng County was prepared, and Wei He ran along the way, and he asked himself that it was as fast as lightning. The other party's reaction speed should not be so fast, and the people outside were hiding cleanly unless they had expected that they would come.
But is this possible?
The only thing that is gratifying is that there are still a large number of crops in the fields that have not been harvested, which has left him without worries for the time being. However, this annoying autumn rain has inevitably reduced his harvest plan.
Although Wei He was a little vigilant, he was not worried. The prime minister was facing tens of thousands of troops. The enemy of Lushan Pass was just a mantis arm to block the chariot. In three or five days, he could break through the opponent's defense and enter western Liaoning. At that time, everything would develop according to the previous rehearsal.
Thinking of this,.
With a good wish for the future battle situation, Wei He fell on the camp bed and fell asleep soundly.
As time went by, the rain became heavier and heavier. Lightning was thundering, and the strong wind was wrapped in the rain, making the tent sound. Such heavy rain made the scout team sent out to guard and ran back to the camp one by one. The canopy above the watchtower tower in the camp could not block the wind and rain at all. The sentries above were holding weapons, huddled in a corner, cursing the damn weather. At this time, they had completely lost the function of warning, and their eyesight was only ten meters away.
At this moment, this camp of 20,000 cavalry, which lasted for more than ten miles, almost completely lost its vigilance and defense, and opened its doors to the enemy intact.
In the heavy rain, infantry rode on war horses, letting the rain water pour on their bodies, their bodies were like statues made of iron, staring at the rain screen in front of them, pulling out the sabre at their waists inch by inch, pointing forward, and roaring: "Strike! Strike the enemy camp."
Six thousand cavalrymen rushed to Weihe camp several miles away in the storm.
The iron hooves stomped on the rain, and the sabers slashed the rain curtain. The cavalry rushed forward like a ghost in the darkness, accompanied by the lightning.
They had fought desperately with the enemy in a more harsh weather than this. This weather was not suitable for combat in the eyes of the cavalry led by Wei He, but in their opinion, it was the best time for sneak attacks.
Six thousand cavalry launched an attack. Even with the cover of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, the overwhelming momentum could not be concealed. The ground was trembling, and the rumbling sound of horse hooves covered the thunder in the sky.
Wei He jumped up from the bed. He thought it was the roar of lightning, but immediately, he realized that a large-scale cavalry was coming. In an instant, cold sweat oozed out from his whole body. The cavalry coming? It was impossible for him to be his own team. There was only one possibility, the enemy, the enemy came.
He rushed out of the tent, and the scene in front of him made him lose his soul. When he used lightning to tear open the sky, he saw countless fully armed cavalrymen who had arrived outside his camp. At this time, (To be continued)
