In the end, Tong Guan led people to rush to the camp that was attacked by night, and he really blocked a dozen bandits who had an accident with their horses and had not had time to catch up with the large army to retreat. This was the only harvest these days.

After the soldiers in the attacked camp gradually stabilized under the yelling of the centurion, Tong Guan ordered to count the losses of the attacked camp.It was almost dawn, and I received the number of casualties reported by the camp owners, especially the camp in the middle, with 3000 casualties or dead or seriously injured.

Three thousand strong soldiers, that's all!

He clutched his chest so distressed that he couldn't speak.In half a night's work, almost a whole battalion of people was lost.Coupled with the losses of the left and right battalions and the loss of the central army, this night exceeded the sum of the previous ones.I have led the army to Jeju for half a month, but I have not been able to confront the bandits in Liangshanbo once. The cumulative loss of troops is close to ten thousand.

Tong Guan began to doubt Gao Qiu's idea of ​​besieging Liangshan, whether he had inadvertently provided a target for Liangshan's thieves to train at night.

And Hu Sanniang, who returned to the mountain with two thousand horse troops and artillery team, immediately asked Hua Rong and Hu Yanzhuo to count the number of people again, and then reported the loss to Juyi Hall.He took Qin Ming and Gongsun Sheng to the Juyi hall to wait for the news.

Hua Rong and Hu Yanzhuo succeeded in attacking the camp this time, and they fought very happily throughout the night. From boarding the tall ship to leading the army back to the Qianzhai, they were as excited as the soldiers who were still in excitement.The three battalions who were panicked by the artillery bombardment thought that it would be fine after the artillery bombardment was the same as before, and they didn't expect the camp to be attacked next.Before they woke up and organized effective resistance, the cavalry's spears and sabers took their lives.Suppressing their excitement, the two ordered the centurion to count the numbers of each team, and quickly reported the number and names of the soldiers who failed to return.

Hu Sanniang took the statistical list, read it carefully, and handed it over to Qin Ming and Gongsun Sheng for them to read it too.

"Our number of cavalry is limited. It is not easy to replenish soldiers, and it is even more difficult to train a qualified cavalry. Even if it is a reduction of this number, we cannot afford to lose."

Hu Sanniang's mood was low and her voice was heavy.

"After dawn, you two should remember to check whether these people have family members on the mountain, and then inform Chai Jin and Jiang Jing that these people will still be paid to their families as enlisted soldiers. How to deal with the follow-up matters will wait until Tong Guan This wave of siege has been repelled, confirm their situation, and deal with it according to the old routine. When you go back, remember to urge those who participated in the war tonight, and write the post-war summary in time."

Hua Rong and Hu Yanzhuo agreed.

Hu Sanniang said to Qin Ming: "Let go of the matter of you taking the cavalry to attack the camp. Today, Shen Shizheng is coming to the Juyi Hall to discuss the next move."

Xiao Rang wrote down the matter, and several people went back to rest separately.

After Hua Rong left the Juyi Hall, he and Qin Ming walked together, and uncle Lang lived next to each other.Almost at the residence, Hua Rong said: "Only a dozen people were lost tonight..."

The excitement and pride in the words can be seen at a glance, and the implication behind the words is that the result of tonight's victory is very worthwhile.

Qin Ming frowned, he realized that Hua Rong still lacked tempering, this kind of thinking ran counter to the general, if he didn't know Hua Rong well, he would have suspected that he was deliberately contradicting Hu Sanniang.

"Brother, the general thinks that too many people have been lost. If you think about what the general said, the imperial court has enough soldiers, but our army is limited, so you can understand what the general wants."

Qin Ming put more emphasis on the words of the general's heart, Hua Rong was awe-inspiring, and immediately suppressed the lack of joy after taking over the camp, and said in a low voice: "Yes, thank you brother-in-law for reminding."

Seeing that Huarong understood, Qin Ming nodded and broke up with him and entered his courtyard.Washed up quietly, thinking that Hua Shi was pregnant, so she didn't go back to the bedroom to disturb her, just cuddled in the study until dawn.His watching the game last night was a personal act, and he still has to do morning exercises this morning.

The people who came to the meeting in the afternoon were all the village owners who had gradually gained real power in Liangshan.Hua Rong first reported the cooperation between the cavalry and Gongsun Shengling's artillery team last night, and talked about the loss of himself and Hu Yanzhuo's cavalry team.Then he said with some seriousness: "Although we only lost a dozen people, as the general said this morning, it is not easy for us to replenish our soldiers, nor is it easy to replenish our horses, and it is even more difficult to train a qualified cavalry. Such a loss , we can't afford to spend with the court."

Everyone else had followed Gongsun Sheng to watch the night raid on the Tongguan Camp.Thinking about it for a while, you can see how much Hua Rong and Hu Yanzhuo dealt to the court last night.But Huarong emphasized that the loss was too great, and when he was surprised, he began to ponder the meaning of Huarong's words, especially Hu Yanzhuo.He stared at Hua Rong, who had a serious expression, which was completely different from the excited state of counting the number of people when he came back from attacking the camp last night. He was first surprised by the disparity in his change, and then thought about what Hu Sanniang said in the early morning, and fell into deep thought.

When Huarong finished speaking and sat down, when Hu Sanniang asked him to get up and talk about his feelings, he saw Qin Ming's face that slightly praised Huarong, and immediately realized that it must be Qin Ming who said something that caused Huarong's attitude to be different. will change so much.Then he followed Huarong's words and mentioned that Hu Sanniang's soldiers are not easy to add, and by the way, he emphasized that the cavalry's horses should be actively updated if conditions permit. The soldiers who fell last night were probably due to The reason for the war horse.

Seeing Hua Rong and Hu Yanzhuo express their thoughts, Hu Sanniang said to the generals attending the meeting: "The matter of war horses is more difficult. Let's see how many horses we can get after Tong Guan's siege this time. Chai Jin, Jiang Jing, you two should consider arranging for Duan Jingzhu to buy war horses.

Chai Jin and Jiang Jing stood up and answered Hu Sanniang's order.

Guan Sheng was eager, stood up and asked: "General, although we lost some manpower last night, it is the time when the hearts of the court officers and soldiers are unstable. If we attack the camp again tonight, it will greatly damage the confidence of the court officers and soldiers. We should be able to win. A solid record."

Hu Sanniang shook her head, "Let's put aside the original plan for the horse army to attack the camp. Don't worry. The imperial court mobilized 10 soldiers to encircle Liangshan. We wiped out all these people. When Liao and Jin invaded the border, the Song Dynasty It will lose some strength. The tone consumes vitality, it is better to capture the king."

Then she said her plan slowly and word by word, "I'm going to catch Tong Guan up the mountain."

These words were like thunder on the ground and thunder in the clear sky, shocking everyone to stay there.

Lin Chong immediately spoke to dissuade him: "General, you are the master of the mountain, so you must not risk yourself."

With Lin Chong first speaking to dissuade, the others immediately recovered and dissuaded Hu Sanniang, saying that this method is not feasible.

Hu Sanniang waited for everyone to finish talking, and then slowly put forward her own reasons, and finally said: "I will go there with Dai Zong, and the speed of going back and forth is fast. You just need to wait for the escort by the waterside building."

Wu Song stood up and said, "General, the last general is willing to go with you to capture Tong Guan. In case something happens, the last general can also protect the general and escape."

As soon as Wu Song finished speaking, Sun Xin also stood up to accompany Hu Sanniang.

Hu Sanniang waved her hands and said, "The two of you have small goals. If there are too many people, it will be difficult to do things, and it will be easier to be discovered."

Wu Song insisted: "Why don't I replace Dean Dai."

Wu Song's skills are among these infantry heroes. If he himself is a little more modest, he will be the second, and no one will dare to say that he is the first.He wanted to replace Dai Zong and go with Hu Sanniang, but no one thought it was inappropriate to accept his proposal.

Seeing that what Wu Song said made sense, Hu Sanniang agreed with his insistence.

It was the second watch of the night, Lin Chong, Qin Ming and other generals each brought [-] cavalry, and Gongsun Sheng brought [-] portable cannons, and they took the building boats to wait for the news less than one mile from the shore.Hu Sanniang and Wu Song were dressed in night clothes, and were sent by Li Jun, Ruan Xiaoqi, and Zhang Shun to the shore facing the Chinese army camp.After Hu Sanniang carefully checked that there was no ambush on the shore with clairvoyance, the two got out of the boat, stuck Dai Zong's Shenxing armored horse on their legs, and disappeared into the night like a gust of wind.Li Jun and the others rowed the boat back to the nearby Louchuan that was parked in the water, waiting for Hu Sanniang's signal.

Tong Guan sent a lot of rangers two miles away from the camp tonight because the ambush army lying in ambush close to the water was the first to be hit by artillery.

Hu Sanniang and Wu Song saw that these cavalrymen would pass by the camp every quarter of an hour.Perhaps it was because it was not yet the time when Liangshan was harassed in the past, and these soldiers were in a relatively relaxed state.The two of them successfully dived to a position a few hundred steps away from the Zhongjun camp, and stopped after taking off the armored horses from their legs.

Hu Sanniang said to Wu Song: "You wait for me here."

Wu Song was taken aback, "General, how can the last general stay here to protect you?"

Hu Sanniang put the armored horse into her arms, "You are helping me by waiting here. After a while, I will capture someone and come back, and you will be responsible for fighting him back."

Wu Song refused.

"Wudutou, you will hinder me from doing things if you follow me. If there is chaos in the camp, you can send a signal for Lin Chong to bring people to rescue. You go with me, and you are all trapped. No."

It was the first time that Wu Song was dismissed as not good enough in martial arts, but he couldn't beat the talking Hu Sanniang.He said sullenly: "General, it's better for the last general to go."

"Don't compete with me. If you're not sure, I won't propose to do this. If I don't come back in half an hour, you can send a signal."

Seeing that Hu Sanniang insisted, Wu Song had no choice but to give in.

Hu Sanniang leaned on the ground, turned her head to Wu Song and said, "You don't plan to follow me in. If you are discovered and cause even the slightest commotion, it will ruin my plan."

Wu Song repeatedly assured that he was extremely depressed, and if he had known this, it would be better to let Dai Zong come.

Wu Song watched as Hu Sanniang leaned on the ground, and ran towards the Zhongjun camp as lightly as a civet cat.He immediately realized that he was far behind Hu Sanniang just because of this ability to walk close to the ground.In the blink of an eye, Wu Song watched Hu Sanniang briskly leap over the rejecting horse in front of the camp, and disappeared into the fence of the camp, while the patrolling sentries walked back and forth, but found no one sneaking into the camp.

Hu Sanniang entered the camp of the Chinese army smoothly, avoided the patrolling sergeants all the way, and quickly went to the tent of the Chinese army that she saw yesterday.It happened that someone came out of Tong Guan's big tent and ordered the guards to pass the order.
