Yang Ying and Gao Qichuan were all surprised: "Food?"

"The rations brought with the army will also be stored together. If these rations are destroyed, the morale of the army will collapse on the spot."

"But this……"

Gao Qichuan expressed doubts: Of course he knew how to store the rations for the army, but the rations for the army were different from hoarding rations. Not only were they stored scattered, but they were not far from the combat troops. Once a battle broke out, the main force would soon come for reinforcements.

"good!"

Yang Ying didn't hesitate at all: "Just beat their rations."

"Then our first battle will be to attack their Weicheng army's rear army camp. They are currently the weakest in combat effectiveness among the enemy armies, so they are usually ranked last. The front army will only let them in when they are tired, so we will defeat them. If you are afraid, they are the ones most likely to affect morale."

Shi Xiao knew the enemy's layout clearly, and under the cover of night, he successfully reached the outside of the military camp.

In the night, Yang Ying looked far ahead at the military camp. At the guard campfire not far away, he could clearly see the soldiers on guard not far from each other.

Gao Qichuan asked: "General Huaihua, the enemy has been prepared for a long time, do you still fight?"

"Fight!" Yang Ying said firmly: "We had expected it when we decided to fight a surprise attack. This is the time when the two armies are fighting. How could the enemy not be vigilant at all times?"

"But?" Gao Qichuan asked doubtfully, "Why didn't they attack the city?"

"Because it's night now!"

Gao Qichuan's Hutou Battalion belongs to the elite of the elite. They have specially trained for night fighting as early as the training, so he unconsciously believed that other armies can also fight at night.

"Yes!" Shi Xiao said: "With King Qin's way of using troops, knowing that the food and grass behind us were burned, if it had not been at night, we would have attacked the city immediately. This can be regarded as giving us one night."

"Prince-in-law!" Shi Xiao said in a solemn and cautious tone: "Now that the enemy is on alert, I expect that their response will be very quick. Reinforcements from other battalions should also be able to come over soon. According to the distribution of the military camps, I expect that the two of them will Support can come in a quarter of an hour, so once the fighting starts, we must withdraw within two-quarters of an hour."

"Two quarters of an hour?" Gao Qichuan said in shock, "This time is too tight."

"You have to hit it even if it's tight, because two-quarters of an hour is also an extremely rare opportunity."

Yang Ying immediately ordered the trumpeters to guard outside the military camp. Once the attack was launched, the retreat order would be sounded when the two-quarter hour was up.

"Remember." Shi Xi reminded: "Once we retreat, we will retreat in this direction."

A moment later, Yang Ying immediately led the team into the enemy camp.

Bugles soon sounded from the enemy camp, and soldiers rushed towards us from all directions one by one.

"Sure enough, the security is tight!"

Yang Ying sighed in his heart: The other party did not ambush in advance, but they responded so quickly, which shows that they are always vigilant! As expected, the commander-in-chief of the rear army was also a good general.

Yang Ying took the lead and rushed directly into the enemy. He swung his long spear and killed and wounded a group of enemy troops wherever the tip of the spear passed. The war horse even trampled the soldiers who had no time to dodge.

Shi Xiao knew the general distribution of the enemy's camp very well, so he led Yang Ying directly to the enemy's camp where the rations were stored. He then picked up the iron basin with a warning bonfire and fired it at the camp.

The camp immediately caught fire.



After a while, fires broke out in the tents everywhere.

After a while, the retreat horn sounded outside the military camp.

"These two quarters of an hour passed too quickly."

Yang Ying obviously had "unfinished ideas", but he could only order the soldiers to kill in the pre-planned place.

Almost as soon as Yang Yingchong entered the enemy camp, Li Chengba had already received military information about the enemy's attack on the camp, but an hour later, he received the prepared information: "A team of hundreds of people raided the rear. The army, after a great killing, burned the food and fodder of the rear army, then withdrew the army."

"Where did the enemy troops come from?"

"For the King of Qin, it is the same team that defeated the Black Armored Army before. They were wearing silver armor, extremely well-equipped, and extremely powerful in combat. Our soldiers could not match them at all. They had been beaten out of the encirclement alive and well. , Hou Chong had already led people to pursue them, but they were beaten back alive. According to his report, there was a man with a long spear in the enemy army, and he was riding a black horse, which seemed to be General Zong's horse."

"What?" Li Chengba suddenly thought of the shadow: "Is it Yang Ying?"

Li Chengba recalled the confrontation with Yang Ying in front of Zuoshun Gate during the day, and suddenly realized: "Could it be that Yang Ying is the leader of this secret team trained by his father? It cannot be wrong, otherwise how could he suddenly suddenly There is such a powerful fighting force.”

"King Qin, what should we do now? The enemy's attack on the camp did not cause us too many casualties, but the rear army's food and grass were burned, and the food and grass in Lancang were also burned. All the food and grass added up, it is estimated that There is only enough for tomorrow.

Especially now the military morale of the rear army has been greatly shaken. "

"Okay!" Li Chengba's heart tightened: he has a vicious vision, a ruthless plot, and a strong strategy, but the number is small, so he only focuses on food and grass, hoping to break the morale of our army.

I have to say, this move is very clever.

"Don't worry, I have long expected that the enemy will use this trick, and I have already made arrangements."

Li Chengba must maintain the morale of the soldiers. King Qin, who had the mentality of not changing his face even if Mount Tai collapsed, was indeed calm and was thinking quickly about countermeasures.

Now Yang Ying is like a poisonous snake hiding in the grass at night. It is difficult to find and eliminate him.

If we spend all our efforts to pursue him now, we may not be able to catch him or encircle him, but it will take time. But now that we are running out of food and grass, as time goes by, the morale of the army will collapse at any time. If we invade Qianjing at that time, do we want to plunder him?

"I am the emperor of Daqian, how can I plunder my own capital!"

A moment later, a military order came from King Qin's camp: The entire army will attack the city immediately!

At this time, Yang Ying, Shi Xiao and Gao Qichuan led the Hutou Battalion soldiers to fight all the way, leaving the enemy behind.

"Count the teams now!"

After a while, each team reported up. There were originally 600 Hutou Camp soldiers, but now there were about 550 soldiers.

Yang Ying breathed a sigh of relief: Fortunately, he had such sophisticated equipment, so the loss was so small.

"General Shi, where will we fight in the next battle?"

Before Shi Xiao could speak, a strong horn sound came from the distance.

"This is?"

Shi Xiao was shocked and said: "Prince-in-law, this is the horn to attack. King Qin, he is going to attack the city!"

"It's not even bright yet, is he already in such a hurry to attack the city?"

"After all, we underestimated His Highness the King of Qin! We thought he would at least wait until dawn before attacking the city, but King Qin had already guessed the purpose of our attack just now, so he attacked the city without waiting for dawn. In this way, we attacked them and caused The morale of the army was in chaos, but he stabilized it in a very short period of time."
