Changfeng Thousands of Miles End Han Song

Chapter 842 Money, That's All Money
When it was dawn, the sky was still gray, and the moon was hanging on the edge of the sky, but it was very bright, and the stars were few and far between.

"Squeak..." This was the sound of the gate opening.

A cavalry army of about a thousand people sneaked out of the camp quietly.This should be thanks to the patrols on the outskirts of the camp, which completely cut off the direct surveillance of the camp by the Jiulian Mountain Bai soldiers and horses.

The leader of the so-called Bai tribe soldiers and horses in Jiulian Mountain, Yang Dingnan, was a small feudal lord of the Bai tribe affiliated with Gao Mingqing.Gao Liangcheng's policy of "cutting territories and sealing them" is very tempting. In order to win over the loyalty of the Bai nobles in the area, Gao Mingqing could only follow the market and treat the Bai nobles under his jurisdiction the same way.

To a certain extent, this policy has a lot of similarities with the feudal nobles in the West. It can be said that the Bai nobles of different sizes are regarded as independent small kingdoms, which largely stabilizes Gao Quancheng. big picture.After all, that guy used the small sect to win the big sect and the position of the prime minister of Dali, which had a bad influence and was still very big, so he used this method to please the tribal nobles of the Bai people and win over the tribes to the greatest extent.But the disadvantage is that the Gao family can only control the overall situation of Dali from now on, but cannot really rule the whole of Dali.

Yang Dingnan is such an aristocrat. His city is not far from Shanchan Mansion. It is located in the northeast corner of the alluvial plain on the east bank of Dianchi Lake. There is a small basin in the center surrounded by continuous mountains. This is Yang Dingnan's territory.

Hearing that there were police in Shanchan Mansion, several minor nobles joined together and gathered troops to reinforce Shanchan Mansion.But they didn't dare to act rashly after seeing the Qi army's formation from a distance, and with their little force, they sent reinforcements to Shanchan Mansion just to send them to death.A group of people retreated to Jiulian Mountain, but they have not yet entered the plain area in the east of Dianchi Lake.Zhang Qing didn't take them seriously at all, but he didn't want more and more feudal nobles of the Bai nationality from the northeast of Shanchan Mansion to gather here with the passing of time.

In this way, after Shanchan Mansion was taken down, this place became another goal of Zhang Qing.

If he sent someone to bring Gao Mingqing's autographed letter, I believe that Yang Dingnan and others would retreat and return home.But Zhang Qing didn't, he chose to eat the Bai soldiers and horses in front of him.

A hundred riders could cover a distance of five miles quickly in daylight, but now they spent half an hour like the infantry behind them.

No matter how careful, Zhang Qing and his party were not spotted by the night sentries of the Bai army under the cover of the howling wind.

Half a month ago, they set up a camp at the foot of Jiulian Mountain.At the beginning, the Qi army was closely monitoring day and night, and a large number of combat forces were always prepared, and they dared not slack off in the slightest.But now, the necessary defensive camps were not only built but also strengthened by the Bai soldiers themselves, and the enemy on the opposite side hadn't shown up for a long time, and it would be a fuss if they waited day and night in full battle.

The strength of guarding and guarding at night has dropped by more than one level compared to the beginning.Substantial vigilance will only get worse.

These people are like the tribal army and tribal leaders of Khitan and Dangxiang. In terms of combat, not only the quality of the high-level soldiers, but also the quality of the soldiers at the bottom is very different from that of the Qi army.

"Get on the horse, jog..."

The nearest camp of the Bai Army under the mountain was less than three miles away. Zhang Qing was about to laugh out loud because they hadn't been found at such a short distance, and they no longer needed to hide their tracks.

Zhang Qing got on his horse and grabbed the spear hanging from the victory hook.Knowing that his time for meritorious service is running out, Wu Yujian is now more eager for meritorious service.

Lu Qian's military order has been sent to the front of the army, and he believes that Wang Qing and Zhong Xiang will lead the troops into Dali soon.The rest are the 37 tribes in eastern Yunnan, as well as the Bai people in this area. How much credit can this have?

Yang Anfu held a long gun in his arms, huddled under the fence, and fell asleep in a daze.He was originally Yang Dingnan's master, but now he became Ding Yong, a Bai army soldier, which was a matter of course.

Of course, as an ordinary person, he can only be an ordinary soldier at the moment, but at least he can fill his stomach!
Dali's military strength cannot be considered strong, but it is not weak either.Roughly similar to Nanzhao, both in terms of scale and military system.Thirty thousand directly belonged to Bu Xie's standing army, which was the backbone of the Dali Army.The township soldiers in other places, that is, the prefecture soldiers, are subordinate forces, with a scale of 8 to 10, but now they must have exceeded [-].Because the princes of the Gao family want to strengthen their own strength, the directly subordinate soldiers and horses in their hands, that is, the guards of the various ministries, although they are also classified as township soldiers, their armor and training may not be weaker than the standing army.Then there is the tribal army, just like the Bai tribe soldiers in Jiulian Mountain!

Dali's military force is mobilized, but there is no 30, and 20 is probably only a lot more.

Even Gao Mingqing, who is working in Dianchi Lake, if he is given enough time to prepare, it is no problem to pull out an army of 3 people.It's a pity that he didn't have time to prepare, and there were only less than [-] troops in the entire Shanchan Prefecture.It can be said to be pitted miserably.

Tonight it was the turn of Yang Anfu's pawn in the camp, and he was lined up until midnight.Don't blame him for his drowsy sleep. When he came to change the guard in the middle of the night, the person in front of him slept much more soundly than him.

Whether it is a rural army or a tribal army, there are 500 people per general. The four generals of the southeast, northwest and northwest will be commanded by an army general. Then the four armies will be commanded by an army general, which is called the Dutong. The chief general of the army will be called the Dutong. He is the commander of the three armies.

Yang Anfu is just an ordinary soldier.

As for the combat effectiveness of these people, just looking at the current guard and the performance of a novice like Yang Anfu, one can know that they are not much stronger than the Khitan and Dangxiang's tribal armies.

His general has more than 300 subordinates.And his team has only 75 members.

The 75 people are also divided into two shifts, that is to say, there are less than 40 people in the night sentry in the entire camp.Many people are still sleeping like Yang Anfu, so it's strange to see Zhang Qing's movements.

Sleeping Yang Anfu leaned his head against the fence, and suddenly he felt the fence vibrate.what happened?With sleepy eyes, he stretched his neck, his head was drowsy, and he still didn't realize the meaning of the vibration of the fence.

Finally Yang Anfu woke up, and the sound of horseshoes clearly appeared next to his ears.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack, enemy attack..." Heart-piercing howls sounded one after another, and Yang Anfu kicked his comrades frantically, "Get up, get up! The Han army is coming—"

There were shadows outside the camp, and Zhang Qing's team was only 600 meters away from the camp.This is a very short distance, and it can be reached in 30 seconds at most with a full-strength horse.

"Kill..."

The canter of the cavalry turns into a gallop while the torches are lit.The torch that had just been lit was blown by the head-on wind, as if there were only blue flames left on the torch head, but it would never go out.These grease-soaked torches can be lit even in light rain.

The sparks of stars joined together into a cloud of fire.

Once the hundreds of cavalrymen shouted, thousands of troops seemed to appear outside the camp.This movement woke up the entire Bai army in the battalion.

The general hurriedly ran out of the tent with a knife in his hand, and gasped when he saw the stars outside.

He doesn't have much knowledge, but he also knows that the camp is going to be bad.I was stolen into my home by a thief camp!

However, "Why didn't the night watchman notice it at all?"

The horse team attacked at night!How loud is it?

At this moment, the general of the Bai army didn't feel ashamed of being stolen from the camp, but just wanted to grab the head of the officer on duty and shout: How did you stay on duty at night?
However, the sound of galloping horseshoes told him that this was an unchangeable fact.The enemy was about to attack the gate of the camp with fine cavalry, and the master was so confused that he couldn't tell how many people the enemy had come. He thought about it over and over again, "Go to the wall, all go to the wall..."

But the fence made of wood is as fragile as paper in front of gunpowder. Even if they go up to the wall to resist, they will still be finished!

"kill--"

Controlling the horse with both legs, Zhang Qing roared loudly while holding a gun in one hand.

The hundred and ten cavalrymen behind them were also extremely excited, galloping and sweeping. Isn't this the pursuit of the cavalry?
Seeing that the team has already broken into the camp of the Bai army, as long as they throw out the torches, oil cans and thunderbolts in their hands, a victory will be won.

Every cavalry rider's heart was full of fire. They had a premonition of victory, and they longed for military exploits and glory.

"Kill, kill..." Everyone brandished their knives and guns, shouting passionately.Who can resist the temptation of honor and merit?

Baiqi went through the camp, entering from the south and exiting from the east. The fragile fences and camp gates were shattered into pieces with the sound of explosions.There were only a dozen fires left, which quickly spread and swept across the entire camp under the howling south wind.

The general was not dead, and neither was the general above him. The two of them had long since abandoned the messy camp, and only kept climbing up the mountain.

At the same time that Baiqi broke into the camp, a large number of soldiers from the Qi army also swarmed in.

Countless Yang Anfu only think about saving their lives at this moment. They either squat on the ground with their heads in their hands, or climb up the mountain desperately.

The entire Jiulian Mountains were dyed red by the fire.The Bai troops on the mountain were horrified and clamoring. Yang Dingnan ran out in disheveled clothes and looked down the mountain, feeling his heart cut by a knife.Nearly half of the troops in the camp at the foot of the mountain were his men. It was unknown how many people would be killed or injured in this disaster.

"General Zhang, why don't we take advantage of this time to attack the mountain?" Thousands of families in the Zhengbai Banner were all red, and their bodies were filled with a sense of happiness.It seems that what has just been experienced is not a war, but a delicious meal.

Looking at the chaotic Jiulian Mountains, Zhang Qing also felt that it would be a pity not to make persistent efforts at this time. Taking down the Bai army on the top of the mountain, how many prisoners of war should be captured.Even if the three companies are required to share the profits, it is still a good income.

However, it is a big problem to attack the mountain head-on with casualties, so let's endure it for the time being, "Follow orders, you are only doing feints."

It is a strange thing that there were no casualties if the mountain was attacked before dawn, or it was a frontal attack.It is better to bluff from the front to attract the attention of the enemy troops on the top of the mountain, and let Xie Zhen lead the troops to detour behind the mountain to catch them by surprise.

What about Jiulian Mountain? If there is no road behind the mountain, how can it be called "Jiulian Mountain"?
