Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 220 The vanguard attacked Li Tianwang at night, Jiang Menshen rebelled against Mengzhou City

Suo Chao ordered his subordinates who had lost their ears to be beaten out of the camp with clubs. After thinking quietly in the military tent for a while, he sent Xue Yong to come over.He said to him: "Li Cheng can't persuade him to surrender. He will definitely raise troops to attack. This battle has a lot to do with it. It's time for me to serve the cottage, and I will go and tell the soldiers to prepare for the fight." Then he ordered Zhou Jin to go forward quickly. to inquire.

Zhou Jin never said in front of Lu Qian that he wanted to join Liangshan, but when Suo Chao led his troops down the mountain, he asked the leopard head to follow him.Vanguard believed him deeply.

When it was halfway through Shen's time, I could vaguely see that the northwest corner was flat on the ground, surrounded by dust heads, and the wind was blowing, and it was rushing towards Mengzhou City.Suo Chao expected that most of the Daming's army was approaching.

At this moment, Zhou Jin led a few cavalry and looked at the place where the Daming Army was coming from a distance.It can be seen that the dust and fog are rolling up in the northwest, like a row of mountain shadows surrounded by a plane.In the dust head, banners flutter, blown by the wind, and the sound of drums and drums shakes the sky and the earth.

Not long after, Zhou Jin was seen leading people back to the camp.

He reported to Suo Chao: "Li Cheng's troops indeed have tens of thousands of people on foot and cavalry. They set up camp five miles west of Mengzhou City and only sent a hundred or ten people into Mengzhou City."

The ten thousand Daming Mansion forbidden troops, plus the soldiers and horses of Mengzhou City, were already five times the number of Suo Chao's troops.

The vanguard didn't take it seriously, and said to the left and right: "It's expected. If Li Chengruo brings troops to rescue Mengzhou, if he doesn't mobilize tens of thousands of horses, how can he dare to come? When I was preparing to fight, I expected that he would not come in a good way." Xue Yong, Li Tai and others all laughed after hearing this.

Suo Chao said again: "The soldiers and horses of the Daming Mansion have long been abandoned. When I was working there in the past, I only restrained the soldiers a little bit more strictly, which caused countless crowds out. The imperial army there is not even as good as the volunteer soldiers. The country has so much money and food in vain. Now Li Cheng, a bird man, is here, and I will teach him what is the best in the world, and let him know how powerful I am in Liangshanbo."

Suo Chao looked at the sky, the sky was full of yellow mist, and the northwest wind was blowing very hard, blowing through the fields and woods outside the city, whistling loudly.The sun seemed to be covered by a layer of yellow silk, without any warmth.It is expected that there will be no moonlight at night.

Suo Chao said to Xue Yong, "As expected by my brothers, Li Cheng did not raise troops out of anger. Tonight, I will lead a group of people to steal the camp and weaken the spirit of the officers and soldiers. It will be easier to fight again tomorrow." According to Xue Yong's policy, he only asked Suo Chao to lead a few elite troops to sneak attack the Daming Mansion army. He himself led the troops to guard the Mengzhou City. If the soldiers and horses in the city dared to open the city to rescue, they were told to open but not to close.

At that moment, Suo Chao set up the front battalion of the third regiment, and supervised and led the soldiers to have a full meal.After the first change, Zhou Jin led 200 people out first, and then Suo Chao led the remaining 300 people to make the second wave with his personal guards.

The two groups of people went straight to the Daming Mansion Army Camp, and arrived at the position after less than half an hour. In the Daming Mansion Army camp, there were lights everywhere, and there was a lot of news.At this time the northwest wind is still blowing.Even though there were some noises, the Daming Army had the upper hand but couldn't hear them.At the second watch, Zhou Jin's department was the first to make a noise. 200 people stood still, only kept shouting, beating gongs and drums.In the dark night, I don't know how many people rushed there.

When all the lamps were lit in the Damingfu military camp, people put on their armor and stood up, and there was a tense atmosphere, Zhou Jin asked the soldiers to stop making noise.After half an hour, Suo Chao ordered the soldiers to beat the drums wildly and shout loudly.

This is a harassment strategy, exhausting the spirit of the officers and soldiers and asking them to relax their vigilance.Just like that 'wolf is coming', once, twice, three times, will you still believe it the fourth time?

Anyway, Li Cheng didn't dare to raise his troops out of the camp at night. How could Li Cheng not know the virtues of his generals?No matter how angry he was, he could only suppress it until tomorrow.Besides, this King Li Tian still had to keep his anger, otherwise when the person who wrote the letter had his ears cut off and put back, he would have been furious and raised his troops to fight.

From the second watch to the fourth watch, midnight passed. Zhou Jin and Suo Chao echoed each other from afar, singing together, and staged more than a dozen concerts for a long or short time, which tortured the daimyo army in the camp. It is wanting to die.

Since the fourth watch, there has been no more such noise.At first, Li Cheng couldn't completely relax, but it was five o'clock, and it had been a whole hour, and he didn't hear any harassment from bandits. Even Li Cheng relaxed and lay down to rest.

He had no luminous eyes and could not see that two groups of Liangshan soldiers were silently eating dry food and drinking cold water just 300 meters outside the camp.The weather in October is already very cold. Has it snowed yet?But they stayed in the winter night for most of the day.

Thanks to the strong foundation of Liangshan's soldiers, if it were the Song Army, no matter whether they could endure it in terms of discipline, the cold air at night alone would have reduced their tenth level of combat strength.

The army of the Daming Mansion knew that the Liangshan army's strength was weak, and they only set up camp near dusk, so they just set up tents and piled some antler fences outside, and did not build fortifications or dig ditches.At dawn here, the Liangshan army rushed in fiercely. The soldiers lit up torches and shouted, like two flying fire formations rolled up wildly on the spot, and rushed towards the military camp of Daming Mansion.

The latter was harassed for half the night and was exhausted early. Many people were already immersed in their dreams. Now they suddenly woke up from their sleep. Some people were panicked and frightened, while others thought it was Liang Shanjun who was bluffing again. They closed their eyes. He muttered with his eyes closed, turned over and covered his ears, intending to continue sleeping.

The Liangshan Army is not yet capable of wielding a bow, but the front camp is the most elite in each unit, so it can be said that everyone has a bow.When the two groups of people rushed fifty steps in front of the Damingfu military camp, some of them stood still, stuck their torches on the ground, pulled out special rockets, lit the arrows, bent their bows and nocked arrows, and pointed them at the Damingfu camp. Just shot it in.

Hundreds of rockets fell into the camp of the Daming Army, landed on the tents and fences, and immediately ignited a raging fire.

Moreover, rockets are not sold with a single hammer. The follow-up arrows fell like raindrops, flames continued to rise from the barracks of Daming Mansion, the drums and gongs roared again, and hundreds of soldiers stood on the top of the city and let out bursts of fire. The sound of killing once again disturbed the silence in the military camp of Daming Mansion.

Many soldiers from the Daming Mansion rushed in from the tents in a panic, and what caught their eyes was the blazing tents and countless soldiers running around like headless flies. The government soldiers hurriedly uttered a heart-piercing cry, "The bandit soldiers have stolen the camp, run for your life." They didn't care about wearing armor and holding a knife, and fled out of the camp in a hurry.

Suo Chao had already broken through a corner of the camp with his soldiers and entered the camp.The soldiers of the Liangshan army were chasing and killing the Daming army, while they were still shouting heart-rendingly: "Li Cheng is dead, let's run for our lives, the Liangshan bandits have already entered."

These shouts made the Daming Mansion barracks even more chaotic. Countless soldiers of the Song Army ran around in the dark, fearing that if they ran too slowly, they would be caught up and killed by the Liangshan Army.

When Li Cheng put on his battle armor and straddled his horse with a knife, the entire Daming Mansion barracks was in chaos, as if the camp had been bombed, and even he couldn't clean it up in a hurry.

However, Li Cheng had some courage after all, and understood that the most important thing at this time was to appease the morale of the army. He quickly led his soldiers to the highest point, ordered people to light up his face with torches, and asked them to shout loudly, "Superintendent Li Don’t panic here.”

This Li Cheng is wearing a red robe and copper armor, which is very obvious.Always with a bright face, dozens of bows and arrows have already been shot at him.Those people were all wearing the war robes of the Song Army, but each of them had a conspicuous white scarf tied on their arms.

Li Cheng didn't want to be hit by arrows and crossbows, so he hurriedly dodged, but he didn't dodge completely. All the soldiers around him were shot over. He was also hit by an arrow on his shoulder. He rolled over and rolled out of the saddle, but grabbed the reins again. , climbed up, hit the horse and fled.

The person leading this team is none other than Li Tai.He had just defected to Liangshan, and was about to make a contribution. Fortunately, he had officially gained a foothold on the mountain stronghold. Now that Li Cheng was hit by an arrow, how could he let him run away.Holding a big knife, he yelled and led his brothers to run towards Li Chengsha.It's just that Li Tianwang's martial arts skills are really good, even though he was hit by an arrow, he held the saber in one hand, clamped his legs between the horse's belly, and ran forward. With a wave of Kong, he chopped off his shoulders and arms to the ground.

Suo Chao could see clearly in the formation, he was very annoyed, shouted, he rode his horse and raised his axe to kill Li Cheng, but how could Li Cheng fight against the vanguard?He just turned the horse's head and galloped towards the rear camp.

At this time, there was great chaos in Mengzhou City.As early as the sound of drums outside the Daming Mansion military camp, the four walls of Mengzhou City were brightly lit. Zhizhou even appeared at the west gate in person, accompanied by the commander-in-chief Zhang Tuanlian, and beside Zhang Tuanlian there was also a tall black man. Strong man.This man was more than six feet tall, with a strong back and strong waist. When he stood there, he looked like a Vajra warrior in a trance.This man's name is Jiang Zhong. He is very tall and can use sticks and fists well. People in the world call him Jiang the God of Men. He is a "hero" gathered by Mengzhou Zhang Tuanlian.

At such a time when Mengzhou was employing people, Zhizhou was very happy to see Jiang Zhong, and promised him personally that anyone who can make credit must be good for him.Ask Jiang Menshen to be very happy.

He has a lot of courage, and when he comes to rely on Zhang Tuanlian, what he wants is glory and wealth.Zhizhou's thighs were thicker than Zhang Tuanlian's.

The magistrate of Mengzhou saw Liangshan soldiers and horses attacking the military camp of Daming Mansion, and immediately dispatched troops to the south gate of Mengzhou as a deterrent.But seeing that Liang Shanbo was just harassing, he gradually became annoyed and went back to the state office to rest.

So until dawn, the Liangshan Army sneaked into the Daming Mansion barracks, but they were about to succeed, and Zhizhou, who hurried to the top of the city, quickly ordered Zhang Tuanlian to lead troops to threaten the Liangshan bandit camp.Although he also knew that in such a situation, it would be safer to keep the city gates closed.But he has to take into account the 'political' influence.

The reinforcements from the Daming Mansion came to rescue him, and Liang Zhongshu stood behind him; how dare he not rescue him as a young man who knows the state?It is one thing to say whether it can be saved or not, but it is another matter to say whether it can be saved or not.

So Zhang Tuanlian pounced.Suo Chao led a battalion to the northwest of the city, but there was Xue Yong in the Liangshan military camp in the south of the city.

Zhang Tuanlian led more than a thousand troops and rushed out of the city, but Xue Yong, who had been waiting all night, waited for him.During the chaotic battle, the Mengzhou army was defeated. Zhang Tuanlian slapped his horse and fled back, and the Liangshan army followed him into Mengzhou city.

When Suo Chao returned from victory, the banner of the Liangshan Army was already flying on Mengzhou City.There is also a vajra man standing beside Xue Yong.

"Haha, brother, come quickly. I'll introduce you to a good man." Xue Yong patted Jiang Menshen's shoulder beside him, and laughed loudly: "This is a great hero tonight. He not only beheaded the magistrate of Mengzhou, but also raised Here comes Zhang Tuanlian's head."

At this moment, Jiang Zhong smiled at Suo Chao in a very simple and honest way.
