Chapter 634 Raid
One day later, Chen Lang rode his horse along the east side of Dinggu. It rained earlier today. The rain stopped at present, but the air was a little chilly. The chilly air hit the face, which made it very uncomfortable. Chen Lang had no time to take care of this.
There are undulating mountains in Dinggu Mountain, and everything in front of you is full of green.
Fang Mo placed the army in Dinggu Mountain, which was not surprising to Chen Lang. If he knew that there would be such a place, Chen Lang was indeed burning Li An and the person did not leave because he would not go back empty-handedly. He was also puzzled when he received the letter from Tao Gong. The two did not know each other, but when he opened the letter, he saw that it was Mu Xue's handwriting.
After recognizing the handwriting, he immediately made arrangements. Chen Lang ran towards a hill. There were the left and right generals brought to him on the slope. One was Wu Liqin and the other was Qi Sheng. The left and right generals had been waiting for Chen Lang on the hill.
There is a valley to the left of the hill, which not only can shelter the wind and also have water sources, but also elite soldiers are waiting for their appointments.
Wu Liqin held the reins of Chen Lang. Chen Lang jumped off the horse and patted his horse and said to everyone, "This time, he can't let him escape easily when he learned about Fang Mo's base camp. He must use his head to sacrifice to the general!"
The two were excited and celebrated.
If he could take Fang Mo's head back this time, the King of Dong would definitely be very happy. The King of Dong had been resentful about the bloody case of the previous dynasty. Being able to take Fang Mo to attack the King of Bei would definitely shock the northern border.
The key to this battle is whether Xu Mingshan will sincerely cooperate with him. Mu Xuexing's letter stated that Xu Mingshan will come to help them. If both sides attack, it will not only come as Fang Mo's expectations, but also catch him off guard.
Chen Lang stared at the north direction, where was the direction of Fang Mo's base camp. Chen Lang felt enthusiastic in his heart and said, "I want to personally cut off Fang Mo's head, bring it back to the public, and be prepared to attack the camp when the sun sets."
Wu Liqin said, "This battle is not only unexpected, but also makes Fang Mo feel no threat in advance. Otherwise, when we see our army suddenly appear, we will definitely be prepared."
Chen Lang is not a person who cannot listen to the opinions of the generals, nor is he obeying the rules of Wu Liqin Qisheng. If he is right, he will consider things that he has not thought about. Therefore, the two are very loyal to Chen Lang. The two hate Chen Lang very much. If they have the chance to capture Fang Mo, they will not miss it.
Qi Sheng seemed a little hesitant and said, "General, you didn't receive a report, saying that Fang Mo had appeared near Li'an."
Chen Lang naturally knew about this news, "He was in Ri'an to cover Ning Wangjun's retreat, but he still didn't give up and wanted to hold on to Ning Wangjun's excuse."
Qi Shengdao "Fang Mo covered Ning Wang's army's retreat. From the route, he could go back to the military camp or to Lianning. We did not find out where others were."
Chen Lang said, "It doesn't matter where you are. As long as you pull out his camp, he will be the one in our pocket."
Qi Sheng nodded and agreed, "General said, although we did not swear to high-fives with Mu Xuexing, since the general believes in him, we also believe it. Tonight's attack, what should we do? The general restrains the main force, and then from Liqin to cover it from the north. Xu Mingshan's army attacked the rear and caught him off guard."
Wu Liqin had no objection and asked in a deep voice, "How many people will Xu Mingshan bring?"
Chen Lang initially estimated that "if it is not eight thousand or ten thousand, he must keep people in a war against Fang Mo who will retreat Lian Ning. They are not facing the head-on, and they are more than enough to be intercepting soldiers."
Qi Sheng frowned and said, "General, once this battle begins, it will break with the northern border. I am worried."
Wu Liqin said, "What do you think so much? The king is not sincerely repairing the northern border. It is just a temporary solution. At present, we still focus on Fang Mo. Our two armies are moving. If Fang Mo gets news, he will always be wary of us. Once we can't bear to fight back, he may lose this battle."
A smile appeared on the corner of Chen Lang's lips and said calmly, "He will not pay attention to our movements, nor will he imagine that we will come from behind. His spies are all paying attention to Pukou. As long as there is no precaution before sunset, the victory of this battle will belong to us, and there will be no other possibility."
Qi Sheng and Wu Liqin nodded and said yes. Wu Liqin asked, "Do we want to annihilate the enemy with all our strength, or just kill Fang Mo?"
Chen Lang said in a deep voice, "No one left! This time I will severely defeat the elite Beiling cavalry!"
Qi Sheng had some concerns, "If you want to completely annihilate the enemy, you will be killed or injured."
Chen Lang said in an experienced tone, "So, we must drive the Beiling cavalry towards Xu Mingshan and let them kill the enemy for us."
Wu Liqin first woke up and praised, "General, this move is brilliant!"
Qi Sheng smiled and said, "Why didn't the last general think of this? The general's plan is to do it. Xu Mingshan must have never expected that we would drive people to his side. When he sees the fleeing Beiling Cavalry, he doesn't want to beat him."
Chen Lang smiled slightly and said, "Yes, this is just driving the ducks on the shelves. It's not okay to fight. If they don't try their best to stop them, the fleeing Beiling cavalry will go to Lian Ning. If the Beiling cavalry gathers in Lian Ning and counterattack, Xu Mingshan will have a headache at that time."
As everyone spoke, the sun gradually fell. After the entire night completely enveloped the earth, Chen Lang ordered the army to move forward in the darkness and tried to destroy Fang Mo's elite Beiling Cavalry with thunder.
Arriving at the periphery of Fang Mo's base camp, Chen Lang's army was divided into two and tried to attack both sides. The army crawled forward in the dark, moving at a fast speed and being very careful. If Fang Mo Beiling's cavalry could not display its due combat power, the battle would end soon.
Wu Liqin held the long halberd and pointed at the front, saying, "The general is coming soon."
Chen Lang looked into the distance, and saw the camp in the forest in front of him, and Chen Lang laughed, "They did not take precautions."
Wu Liqin agreed very much. If Fang Mo had prepared for it in advance, the probes near the periphery of the camp would have been going back and forth, and would not be so quiet. Wu Liqin was worried at this time and said, "If there is no patrol on the periphery of the camp, is it because Fang Mo is not here to be so loose?"
If you want to confirm this idea, you cannot know if you don’t enter the camp. Just as Chen Lang said before, it doesn’t matter whether Fang Mo is there or not. As long as you remove the base camp, Fang Mo is a toothless tiger.
The horse's hooves stepped on the soft ground and pushed towards the target silently.
Chen Lang looked up at the sky, and the dark night sky was covered with stars.
I remember when I was young, I liked to stare at the starry sky in the grass and wilderness, but I had never thought of this for at least twenty years. At this time, I felt a lot of emotion in my heart when I stared at the starry sky for a long time.
The fire that was originally like sparks in my eyes gradually became bigger and bigger. Chen Lang immediately dispelled unnecessary emotions, focused his attention, and whispered to Wu Liqin next to him, "It's almost done."
Wu Liqin took out the long bow without saying a word, and took out a long arrow with a grease cloth. His subordinates followed suit. They began to spread the flat line and advance, and the enemy camp gradually got within the range of the people.
Chen Lang was full of confidence and shouted "Light up!"
Many torches were lit, and everyone immediately bent their bows and arrows. The guards of the other camp saw a row of fires appearing like ghost fires outside the camp. They were immediately frightened and alert. They first issued a warning, and then the horn sounded, but it was too late.
The warrior rode his horse in front of the formation, ignited the arrows with a skillful and rapid technique. The fire-powered arrow immediately left the bow and shot into the sky, drawing beautiful red flames and bright light to the enemy camp.
The rockets shot out one after another, and the enemy camp caught fire. The forest, which was originally silent and dark, suddenly became noisy and bright. The enemy camp immediately became chaotic. The sleeping soldiers woke up and fled out of the burning camp tent.
The sound of killing hooves sounded from left and right, and Wu Liqin and Qi Sheng led the sneak attack troops to raid from both wings. Chen Lang pulled out his long sword with his waist and shouted majestic and loudly, "Follow me!" and led the way to kill the enemy camp.
During the rush, Chen Lang's army deliberately left a gap so that the Beiling cavalry soldiers could escape. The Beiling cavalry soldiers saw that there were enemy soldiers and halberds in front and behind, and they were worried about the exits behind, so they could only rush back.
The sky was getting brighter and Chen Langwu Liqin rode his horse on a hill. His mood last night was completely different from today. The fruit of victory was firmly in Chen Lang's hands.
The base camp of Fang Mo was removed overnight. Fang Mo was no longer qualified to fight and completely retreated. The soldiers of the fleeing Beiling cavalry were driven away by Qi Sheng. Wu Liqin said at this time, "Fang Mo was not here during the rush last night."
Needless to say, Chen Lang already knew this, Chen Lang said, "Fang Mo is indeed not here. If he were there, Beiling Cav will not be defeated so quickly."
Wu Liqinda was strangely saying, "Even Lu Xiongwen is not here."
Chen Lang said, "Most of them are going to Lianning"
Wu Liqin seemed to be a pity and said, "If Fang Mo could only resist for a while, he would be unable to turn the world back. If he were there, he would have taken his life last night."
Chen Lang didn't seem anxious about this. He could be patient if he killed later and killed earlier.
Chen Lang didn't know that Xu Mingshan had not come this time, but Wu Peng was very angry when he saw Chen Lang rushing everyone to him.
There is no way to go back to the air. I can only command the army to form an iron barrel formation to prevent Beiling cavalry from passing by.
Because every time there is one person in Fang Mo, there will be one more person fighting for him. Although he is angry that Chen Lang is cunning, he is helpless.
Although Wu Peng set up the iron barrel formation, many hills also made many people escape.
The defeated general Wu Peng did not order the soldiers to chase him, because the fleeing people were not in the direction of Lian Ning. As long as they did not run to Lian Ning, the remaining people could be sent to arrest him at any time.
At noon the next day, Xu Mingshan received the news that Beiling Qi was dismissed. This was a good thing Xu Mingshan should be happy, but there was no smile on his face.
Because Zhang Chengye also heard news that he had not seen Fang Mo near Lian Ning.
This made Xu Mingshan very surprised. Fang Mo was not in Lian Ning not in the base camp, where could he go? Wu Peng wrote this battle report very clearly, and there were only 15,000 people in the base camp that night.
In other words, at least half of the people disappeared out of thin air. According to previous investigations, Lian Ning had only 5,000 troops, so where did Fang Mo lead the remaining 10,000 people?
If someone feels better when he sees Fang Mo fleeing Xu Mingshan, he is now worried that Xu Mingshan is very worried.
