Anti Qing

Chapter 119
Three days later.

Wang Guangen tossed and turned, unable to sleep all night.

That night, he climbed to the top of the city and looked at the Qianying barracks outside the northern city, where the lights were still brightly lit and there was a lot of noise.

The lively sound can be heard clearly even in Gucheng, which is several miles away.

Immediately, Wang Guangen raised his head and looked towards the mountain again.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and noticed something strange.

"It's been three days. Why do these rogues still have so many people? No matter how many people there are, it shouldn't be like this for so many days!"

"Furthermore, in the past few days, the rogue bandits have become very powerful, but they have no intention of rushing to attack the city at all. Shouldn't they be the ones who are anxious?"

The more Wang Guangen pondered, the more he felt that the situation was abnormal.

There must be a demon in the abnormal situation!
Knowing the importance of this battle, Wang Guangen's sleepiness suddenly dissipated, and he turned his head and said in a solemn voice.

"Call my second brother over."

A servant immediately ran down from the Nuqiang alley, and after a while, a fast horse galloped from the south of the city, but it was his second brother Wang Guangtai who heard the news.

He left the mount at the stable at the gate of the city and handed it over to his servant, and immediately came up.

"Brother, you are in a hurry to find me, what's the matter?"

Wang Guangen didn't reply, he stared at the former camp a few miles ahead for a long time, and then asked suddenly.

"Over the past few days, the movements of the rogues outside the city are not right."

Wang Guangtai also frowned upon hearing this.

"Brother said something like this, there is indeed something wrong!"

"The rogues practiced outside all day long, with a huge momentum. During the day, the camp was always covered by smoke and dust, and there were often fires in the mountains at night. They were not afraid of exposing their numbers at all."

Wang Guangen nodded, staring slightly.

"This is too abnormal. If we follow the strategy of soothing the platform, the rogues should be ants on the hot pot. They are eager to attack the city, and they won't stay indifferent for a few days."

Wang Guangtai immediately understood what he meant and looked up.

"Brother's meaning."

"Do you want me to lead troops out of the city to attack at night and test their reality?"

Wang Guangtai nodded, but shook his head again.

"That's not the case at all. The other party is Li Zijing. I heard that this man has a lot of tricks in Tongguan, and he saw through Duoduo's ambush. Can you think of it, can he not think of it?"

Wang Guangtai's eyes moved slightly, a little unconvinced, but he soon sighed.

"That's true. If you can see through Duoduo's ambush, this person has to guard against it. What does the elder brother mean, the younger brother is all ears."

Wang Guangtai looked at the night sky and the mountains.

"Our army is used as bait, in order to avoid undermining the strategy of Futai, and expose the reality of our army in advance, so this time it can only be a surprise attack, but not a night attack."

"In this way, send two groups of troops. One is to be led by you to attack the bandit camp outside the northern city. The other is to choose a competent subordinate to lead the team out of the city."

"Led by the local guide, I felt into the mountains. I suspect that the fire lights in the mountains are just a cover-up, and the bandits' failure to attack the city may be a trick of suspicious soldiers."

"The war in Jingzhou will last for one or two days, so don't be careless!"

Naturally, Wang Guangtai had nothing to say. His eldest brother, he just has a bad temper sometimes, and he has quite a lot of experience in battle.

he said with a smile.

"Brother is a good planner, so I can find out the reality of these rogues in Beicheng. I can also know how many people there are in the mountains."

Wang Guangen nodded heavily, raised his hand and said.

"Go, you don't have to love to fight, this time it's mainly about finding out the truth!"

Watching Wang Guangtai leave, Wang Guangen sighed.

This time, it really couldn't be delayed any longer. Li Zijing was not an idiot, Tongguan proved at least one thing, this is a very difficult opponent.

Whether Li Zijing will fall into Gao Doushu's trap is another matter. Before the battle in Jingzhou is over, it is necessary to find out the reality of these rogues in front of us.

What if these rogues are also bait?
But it shouldn't be possible, Wang Guangen quickly shook his head.

The number of rogues in Xiangyang City was not many. According to Yebu received the secret report of entering the city disguised as vagrants, Li Zijing's front battalion had no more than [-] people.

Even if you have the courage, you may not dare to divide your troops to come.

What's more, judging from the momentum of the four camps outside Gucheng, even if there are empty soldiers, the number of people will definitely not be less than 5000, which is the least situation.

If you want to form such a large formation everywhere, the number of bandits in each camp will not be less than 3000.

Even if Li Zijing really divides his troops, he only has about 1 people left in his hands. This number is not enough for anything in the wild.

Even if Li Zijing rushed to Jingzhou with these 1 horses in time, it would not affect the battle situation there.

You know, Ma Jinzhong, who besieged Jingzhou, had [-] soldiers ready to fight, let alone the third brother who brought the main force of Yunyang to support him.

Even if Li Zijing had the supernatural ability to see through Gao Doushu's scheme, he was not the God of War. How could a [-] former battalion mainly recruited recruits beat [-] to [-] veterans?

Wang Guangen felt that he had thought of all the possibilities, and no matter what happened in this battle, he would definitely have the last laugh.

Three miles to the north of Gucheng, there is the camp of the Chinese Army.

Outside the north gate is the camp of the Chinese army where Wu Zhaosheng is located, and it is also the most noisy of the four camps. The cooking is done with a standard of 5000 people.

Although this will cause a serious waste of materials, in wartime, the focus is on winning, and it can no longer be considered so much.

Three days passed, and the Ming army in the city did not move at all. It was the last few days when the victory was decided, and Wu Zhaosheng was living like a year.

He knew that Wang Guangen, who had experienced battles for a long time, was not some idiot, and the quieter the city seemed, the more clues there might be to the situation.

Wu Zhaosheng sat on the table, tapping his fingers on the table. He never imagined that Wang Guangen was brewing some unknown conspiracy.

"General!"

An old soldier dressed in a black arrow jacket, lined with cotton armor, and a felt hat rushed into the tent of the Chinese army, the waist knife in his hand was already out of its sheath.

"The Ming army has moved!"

"Wang Guangtai led his troops out of the city and met our army's sentry cavalry outside. Now they are rushing straight to our Chinese army's camp. There is no news about the other four gates."

There was some movement, but Wu Zhaosheng heaved a sigh of relief.

He immediately grabbed the Yanling Saber on the table, stood up and shouted.

"Pass down my military order, no soldier or soldier will be left in the camp, and all will go out to resist the Ming army's attack on the camp!"

"Let Lao Zhang go around quietly with the sentry cavalry. The real purpose of Wang Guangen's robbing the camp in such a big way may not be the camp of the Chinese army!"

"Find out as soon as possible what Wang Guangen is planning!"

The old soldier was taken aback, and asked subconsciously.

"But general, the brothers are all out of the camp, who will be left to defend the big tent of the Chinese army?"

Wu Zhaosheng also knew that this was putting himself in danger, he hesitated for a moment, and sneered.

"Set up straw men around the camp, put on armor, and then leave me with three thousand banners of my Dashun. My safety depends on when the brothers who fight will repel the Ming army!"

The old soldier couldn't believe it was so, his face was moved, and he ran out to deliver the order without saying a word.

Wu Zhaosheng's order was issued, and in the camp, the soldiers of the front battalion shouted wildly, stepped on their horses, raised their knives and guns, and rushed out of the camp shouting.

In the night, with the sound of a cannon, countless Ming troops had already killed.

It's just that the Ming army didn't expect that the fighting will of these rogue bandits was completely different from the Huguang local Shun army they had contacted before.

Under the leadership of the captains of the various ministries, all the soldiers in the front camp of the Chinese army camp with only 3000 people were dispatched, and as soon as they met face to face, they launched a countercharge against Wang Guangtai's troops who robbed the camp.

Under the night, there are swords and blood.

The men and horses of the two sides fought together, and the soldiers of the front battalion, dressed in black and wearing hats, rushed out of the camp like a tide.

　I didn't take care of working overtime yesterday.
