Chapter 940

The night is low, the moon is dark and the wind is high.

Hearing that the second prince was going to fight in person, the pro guards and staff around him felt that their brains were big.

"Your Highness, your body is precious, and the sword has no eyes on the battlefield. If you are hurt accidentally, you can't tell the king."

The pro guards around him exhorted, and the aides on one side agreed. However, the second prince was a headstrong temperament and felt good about himself.

He said, "Gu followed the martial arts teacher to study hard. Even his father and King praised Gu as a warrior in Northern Xinjiang. How can Gu be greedy for life and afraid of death?"

Before he was an adult, he won his martial arts master and defeated several guards. He killed the enemy bravely on the battlefield and brought back a lot of booty every time... He is a partying in Northern Xinjiang. He is brave and powerful. Can the weak soldiers in the Central Plains hurt him?

Northern Xinjiang is not peaceful, and there are many voices inside.

If a small tribe develops too fast or does not obey the orders of the imperial court, it will inevitably lead to the expedition of the imperial army.

However, this kind of petty trouble is not a climate. It is generally used to gild the second generation of nobles in Northern Xinjiang.

The second prince led the army to expedition several times, and each time he won a complete victory, which made him proud and even couldn't see his ability.

You said you were a prince. Just stay in the rear and wait for military achievements. Why gather in the front line to make trouble for people and make it more difficult for teammates?

What's your ability? I don't have a number B in my heart?

The staff and pro guards went to battle repeatedly, not only did they not persuade the second prince, but even provoked the other party's reprimand and abuse.

Finally, he said stubbornly, "don't persuade me anymore. I've made up my mind!"

The more people around him persuade him, the more angry he is and the more he wants to prove himself with facts.

Liu Xi, a woman, can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Is he not as brave as a woman in Northern Xinjiang?

"Dai Gu caught Liu Xi himself -" the second prince looked around and snorted, as if mocking.

Although he is headstrong, the second prince also knows that his life is precious, and some places will obey the arrangement of his staff.

He asked the vanguard troops to put on the clothes of Han soldiers and put on the banner of Jiang Pengji.

If you don't meet the enemy, it's best. If you meet the enemy patrol, you can muddle through.

The night is dark and the wind is high, which is suitable for looting.

The second prince ordered the crowd to hold wooden chopsticks and wrap the horse's mouth with a cloth. No noise was allowed.

Twelve thousand soldiers and horses divided into several waves and headed for Chao Wu along several paths on the map.

Because he had a detailed map in his hand, the second prince led his troops to avoid several waves of sentry, all the way.

Close to Chao Wu granary, the patrol troops became more and more intensive. Even if it was covered by night, they were still caught.

"Who?"

The second prince was in a hurry. The pioneer officer on one side answered in fluent Central Plains Mandarin.

"We are sent by Liuzhou Mu to reinforce the granary! Zhou Mu is worried that barbarians in Northern Xinjiang will sneak into the granary."

This pioneer official is also a talent. When he lied, his face was not red and breathless, and even showed a look of awe inspiring righteousness.

The night was too dark and there was a distance between them. The other party couldn't see how many people there were here. After questioning, they let go.

The second prince's heart was relaxed, and he immediately gave birth to some contempt, "but so -"

Perhaps the luck in the first half of the night had run out. The second prince met several waves of patrols one after another. They responded more and more skillfully.

Unconsciously, he was delayed for half an hour.

At this moment, it is less than a quarter of an hour away from Chao Wu granary.

Compared with the success of the second prince, the other two roads have no such preferential treatment.

They only met three waves of patrol soldiers along the way. They also fooled around by lying. Unexpectedly, the patrol soldiers under Jiang Pengji are different from other patrol soldiers. Before handing over to each other, you need to check the code. If the code doesn't match, you'll be killed!

Of course, today is different.

The patrol soldiers have been instructed by the upper level. If they meet someone who can't match the code today, they don't have to make a statement and cooperate with each other.

Northern Xinjiang thought its actions were smooth, but little did it know that their every move was expected by the enemy.

Lijiang granary——

Li Yun chewed hay in his mouth, holding a gun in one hand and wiping the gun head with a cloth strip in the other hand. His sharp eyes were filled with war.

"Wan'er, warm, wait for me to go back!"

Li Yun threw the wiping cloth aside, and the hurried footsteps of his subordinates came closer and closer.

"Captain Li, the enemy has lined up to surround the granary!"

"Just in time!"

Li Yun stood up straight, grabbed the white reins of the war horse in one hand, rolled over and mounted the horse, and held a gun in the other hand.

"Send troops to meet the enemy!"

At this time, there was a sound of fighting outside the granary, and two thousand cavalry rushed to the Lijiang granary.

"Rush!"

According to past experience, the granary defense line simply can't stand a wave of charge, it will collapse thousands of miles.

Let alone their sudden appearance, Chongzhou should be unprepared.

It is even more impossible to block the iron hooves of their cavalry when they rush to meet the enemy without preparation.

This time it's different——

When the cavalry in rattan armor formed an array and accelerated the charge, the horse suddenly stepped empty on its front hooves and fell forward with great inertia.

A handful of heads emerged from the ground. Holding unknown sickle weapons in their hands, they slashed at the horse's legs, forcing the horse to fall forward. After doing this, he immediately retracted his head to the bottom of the ground and repeated his old skill at the second echelon who had no time to respond.

Dozens of circular trenches were dug 200 feet around the Lijiang granary in order to deal with the first wave of cavalry charge in Northern Xinjiang.

The distance between these trenches is irregular, and there are even circular waves.

In order to cover up the existence of these trenches, the open space was covered with turf and covered by night.

Close to the middle of the granary, dense iron thistles were sprinkled between the trenches.

Seeing this situation, the team in Beijiang also realized that they were in ambush.

Lijiang granary is not a piece of fat at all. It is clearly a trap with fat!

However, the cavalry charged too fast, and the distance of two hundred feet was nothing at all.

When they realized the ambush and tried to retreat, the first group of cavalry had rushed to the granary.

"Want to withdraw? Have you asked me about the gun in my hand?"

In order to meet the enemy easily, a half Zhang wide path was left in all directions of the granary.

At the same time, a similar scene took place in sangmo granary.

Jiang Pengji is a restless character. She doesn't like correcting documents and is keen to end the war in person.

Northern Xinjiang came to attack granaries and steal grain. In addition to carrying combat weapons and troops, their team also brought a large number of baggage cars for transporting grain. The front team lost, morale fell suddenly, and the rear troops tried to evacuate.

On the contrary, the baggage cart became an obstacle to their cavalry, blocking them in one place and unable to break through in all directions.

The fighting quality of the cavalry in Northern Xinjiang was good. Although the performance of the rear was very humiliating, the remaining cavalry began to organize charge and break through.

"Chop the horse camp and come forward to form an array!"

When the command was given, an arrow roared into the sky.

The soldiers of the horse chopping camp took heavy steps to resist the cavalry's charge. The heavy shield formed a fish scale like, like a thick iron wall. The soldiers in the back held sharp spears, resisted the charge with spears under the cover of their comrades in front, and the crossbow men scattered in the innermost part.
