  Chapter 1007 Night Battle Attack

  Although Yan Qing was about the same age as them, he was very mature and had the calmness of a general. Otherwise, Li Yanqing would not have made him the general of this expedition.

   "Think about it, why Dushuai sent you here, what do you have in common? I don't mean age, but combat advantages."

   Everyone looked at each other, Zhao Wu suddenly blurted out, "Night battle!"

  It dawned on everyone that several of them are masters of night combat, including 10,000 troops, and they are also the best army in night combat training.

   "For the Qi army, our current status is that of the bandits in Liangshanbo. Only attacking at night can help cover up our identity, and night fighting is also our specialty, why not make good use of it."

Yan Qing simply found a flat boulder and recruited several people up. He took a few stones and placed them on the boulder, "This is Liangshan Po, this is Wuzhang River, this is Juye County, this is Beishangguan Road .”

Yan Qing drew lakes, rivers, cities and official roads on the boulders with clay, and he placed another boulder beside the river, "This is the enemy's grain fleet. Let's talk about why Liu Yi didn't bring the grain ashore. ?”

  Zhao Wu thought for a while and said: "It should be that the folks couldn't get a cart, and the cart followed Zhang Rong and the others to go north."

   "This is one aspect. On the other hand, Liu Yi actually wants to transport grain by water. He is holding back now. In fact, he just wants to see if there is any navy in Liangshanpo to attack the grain ship."

   "This is a bit too risky. Not attacking the grain ship does not mean that there is no water army in the lake."

  Yan Qing nodded, "That's why the commander-in-chief will appoint me as the commander-in-chief. Everyone knows that I am the commander of the intelligence army, and collecting intelligence is my strength. Before going to the battle, I have sent someone to carefully check Liu Yi's background.

This Liu Yi was a farmer in Fucheng, Hebei two years ago. When Jin Bing killed him, he didn't even have the courage to flee south, so he became a obedient citizen. This person is not so cautious as he is cowardly. When Zhang Sandutuo was in the rebel army, some horses in the camp were frightened at night. He thought it was the enemy stealing the camp, so he immediately disguised himself as a small soldier and fled. He was the first to run out of the camp, and later became the laughing stock of the whole army. "

   Zhong Lie frowned, "Such a cowardly person, Liu Yu actually let him be the coach?"

   "This is the key. He is obviously a cowardly and incompetent person. Why did Liu Yu let him be the coach? Are you not afraid that he will lose 30,000 troops?"

Yan Qing glanced at the contemplative crowd, and then smiled slightly: "I analyze the reasons for two reasons. First, Liu Yu despised Zhang Rong's rebel army in his bones. Liu Yu underestimated the enemy."

"The second reason is that Liu Yi is Liu Yu's younger brother. Liu Yu can't trust other generals, especially when he sent his most elite Yun Congjun this time. Yun Congjun is either commanded by himself or by his son. This is also the reason for letting my younger brother command Ten Wan Yun to join the army this time."

  Zhao Wu suddenly said: "Actually, our goal in Liangshanbo this time is not Liu Yu at all, right?"

  Yan Qing gave a thumbs up, "It's General Zhao who sees it clearly!"

  He straightened his waist and said to everyone: "I might as well tell you that our mission this time is to capture the Daming Mansion and lay the foundation for the recovery of Hebei in the future."

   "But the Daming Mansion is guarded by golden soldiers!"

Yan Qing smiled and said: "This is the reason why the commander-in-chief uses Liangshan Po as a chess piece. When Liu Yu is not sure about Liang Shanbo and needs foreign aid urgently, Xuzhou's golden soldiers cannot move, and Yanjing's golden soldiers are not familiar with the situation, so naturally they can only be The Jin soldiers from the Daming Mansion have gone south."

   As night fell, Yan Qing led 10,000 soldiers ashore in the north of Juye County, and ran towards the Qi army camp in a detour.

  Although Yan Qing believed that Liu Yi still had the idea of ​​letting the fleet go to Liangshan, he would not really wait for the enemy transport fleet to come to his door. That would be too passive, and it was not Yan Qing's style of doing things.

Yan Qing's purpose is to completely annihilate the 30,000 Qi army that went north this time. In order to successfully implement strategic deception, Yan Qing has done enough homework to erase all traces of the Song army. Each soldier has a blue cloth tied around his left arm , like Zhang Rong's soldiers, means "Blue Turban Army", and the character "Zhang" is also written on the banner, and the character "Shi" is written on the banner of the chief general.

  All evidence shows that they are Zhang Rong's army, led by Lieutenant General Shi Xiu.

   Of course, there is another premise that soldiers cannot be captured, not even a single soldier. Yan Qing is not absolutely sure about this, he can only do his best.

  Song Army ambushed in a forest one mile away from the enemy camp. Of course there were Qi Army patrols here, but they were killed by Song Army and failed to send out the alarm in time, causing a gap in the northeast corner of the camp.

   "Du Tong, the other party actually has a tent!"

  Chong Lie couldn't bear the excitement in his heart, and whispered to Yan Qing.

   "It's normal, Yun Congjun has temporary camp tents."

   "Then can we attack with fire?" Zhong Lie suggested again.

  Yan Qing pondered for a moment and said: "Fire attack is fine, but you can't use gunpowder arrows, you can only use ordinary rockets."

   "I understand the humble job!" Zhong Lie quickly retreated.

What Yan Qing thought of was the fire attack. Generally speaking, if a large tent is used to set up camp, various precautionary measures must be taken in place, such as peripheral patrols, sentry towers, and tall camp fences. Although the Qi army has all these measures , but not in place, just superficial.

  For example, the interaction mechanism between patrols. In order to prevent the patrols from being killed by the enemy, the patrols have to exchange patrol positions in a short period of time, or the sentry returns to report. Once the sentry does not appear in time, it will immediately cause alert.

And the patrol here has become a fixed sentry. After the sentry is released, it will not be confirmed at night. It is just a formality. opportunity.

At one o'clock, Zhong Lie led 300 soldiers and started to act. They quickly approached the northeast corner. There was a sentry tower here. The sentry tower became the eyes and ears of the Song army.

   There was a flash of fire on the sentry tower, indicating that there was no one around. Zhong Lie led three hundred soldiers and quickly approached the barracks, but the soldiers did not enter the barracks, but put six large barrels on the ground, filled with kerosene.

  The soldiers were all carrying traditional rockets, and wrapped dry tarpaulins around the arrowheads. They first soaked the kerosene in the kerosene barrel, and prepared to ignite the fire. At the same time, ten torches also appeared.

  The appearance of the torch means that the army will be exposed to the eyes of the enemy sentries. The soldiers of the Song Army lit the fire cloth on the torch, and immediately drew their bows and fired arrows into the barracks. Rockets flew into the air and shot into the barracks.

'when! when! when! ’ Another sentry tower not far away found a fire, and the alarm bell was sounded urgently.

  At the same time, another army led by Zhao Wu also fired rockets into the barracks from the southwest corner, and rockets shot into the camp from the northeast and southwest directions.

  Liu Yi has the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, which is a habit developed through years of farming life. He falls asleep soon after dark, and wakes up at four o'clock.

  At one watch, the entire camp was in a deep sleep. When the alarm bell sounded, dozens of large tents had already been set on fire, and the fire spread rapidly. With the help of the river wind blowing from Liangshanbo, the fire burned more rapidly.

  The soldiers were awakened one after another, yelling and running out of the camp. Many soldiers were still barefoot, and they were terrified and ran towards the gate.

  Liu Yi was also woken up by the soldiers, "General, get up quickly, something is wrong, the camp is on fire!"

  Liu Yi sat up in fright, and asked tremblingly, "What's going on?"

   "I don't know!" The camp was full of fire and it was in chaos.

At this time, Liu Yi heard cries from outside. His handsome tent was located in the middle of the camp. The cries from outside meant that the fire had already burned. He was so frightened that he got out of bed and looked for shoes, "I Where are your shoes?"

  Several soldiers rushed in and shouted: "The fire is coming, the general must go!"

Liu Yi didn't bother to look for shoes, and was dragged out of the camp by a few soldiers. He saw that the flames were raging outside, and the whole sky was reddened by the fire. Groups of soldiers came crying and shouting. They all fled to the east, where the gate of the barracks was, and there was no fire.

  Liu Yi was supported by the soldiers on the horse, urged the horse to flee, "Get out of the way, the people in front get out of the way!" Their soldiers yelled loudly, clearing the way in front, and the horse kept knocking the soldiers over.

  Suddenly, a soldier who had been knocked over got up from the ground. He raised his spear angrily, threw it with all his might, and stabbed fiercely at Liu Yi's vest. ． ． ． ． ．

At this time, 10,000 soldiers of the Song army had surrounded the camp, especially 3,000 soldiers gathered outside the east gate. They fired arrows like rain, and shot at the soldiers of the Qi army who were fleeing. There were corpses of soldiers of the Qi army everywhere outside the gate. It has piled up like a hill.

  But the raging fire still caused countless soldiers to rush out of the camp one after another. Countless soldiers even crawled out crying and begging for mercy, but it was useless. They still died under the ruthless arrows of the Song army.

  War is so cruel, either you die or I live, there is no room for too much mercy, since the moment the soldiers put on their armor and went to the battlefield, their fate has been doomed, either returning home triumphantly, or dying in battle.
