Chapter 288 Why didn’t Gao Qiu’s letter work?
At sunset, inside Shezhou City.
The coach Shi Bao was enjoying flowers with his five wives in the courtyard, when suddenly a brown-bodied red-capped sparrow landed on a branch nearby.
After Shi Bao took down the sparrow, he retreated from everyone, sat in the pavilion and opened it to take a look.
"The officers and soldiers have set up camp thirty miles east of Shezhou City. The morale in the camp is low, there are countless casualties, and there are less than 30,000 people available for action. Every day, people and horses are exhausted. It is the best time to attack the camp! Tomorrow, Shezhou City will be attacked. You can send troops to harass!"
After seeing it, he stood up and shouted: "Come here! Order seven thousand cavalry immediately! After dark, gather at the east gate of Shezhou City and stand by!"
"As ordered!"
Shi Bao returned to the room and put on a red copper battle armor, an off-white cloak, and a copper jacket with tiger patterns carved on his head.
His left hand was holding the wind-splitting sword at his waist, and his right hand was holding an iron meteor hammer.
Shi Bao, the nine-foot-tall and tall general under Fang La's command, put on his armor, majestically walked out of the courtyard, mounted his horse and ran towards the east gate of Shezhou City.
It was getting dark, and seven thousand cavalry were already lined up at the east gate of the city.
Shi Bao came to the front of the battle and shouted: "People of Shenggong! The officers and soldiers have been frightened by our defeat! They have retreated thirty miles eastward, and the camp is full of wounded soldiers, struggling to survive! Come with me now to give them one last blow." Hit it!"
"The Holy Duke is mighty! The General is mighty!"
At the beginning of the hour, Shi Bao led seven thousand cavalry out of Shezhou City and quietly ran eastward.
Everyone walked through a dense forest.
At this time, dark clouds covered the moon, evil winds were blowing, and the surroundings were pitch black. It was impossible to see even one's fingers, and only the sound of strong wind blowing through the leaves and grass was left.
Shi Bao ordered the entire army to set off lightly, not to make any noise or light torches. The surrounding environment could not help but send chills down the spine.
Half an hour later, Shi Bao at the front finally walked out of the jungle. In front of him was an open basin with campfires dotted in it.
Shi Bao confirmed that this was the military camp.
He said to the lieutenant beside him: "The so-called heroes in Liangshan are nothing more than this. If we choose to camp in this kind of terrain, if the cavalry attacks, won't we collapse in a rush? God help me! Send the order, and the whole army will deploy in formation! In a moment, Empress Zhong will attack with me!"
"Leader!"
After a while, seven thousand cavalrymen came out of the dense forest and spread out their ranks.
Shi Bao waved the iron meteor hammer in his hand and shouted: "Charge me!"
With an order, the army rushed towards the direction of the flashing campfire like lightning!
However, when they rushed into the camp, they found no one, only a few scattered empty tents and countless fires.
The dark clouds dispersed and the moonlight poured down. The seven thousand cavalry had no choice but to patrol the empty camp like scattered sand.
Shi Bao was wondering when he suddenly felt a chill coming from behind him!
When he turned around, he instinctively pulled out the wind-splitting knife from his waist and blocked an arrow with a bang.
Yue Fei, an archer, admired in the forest: "The enemy general is so skillful!"
Shi Bao shouted: "No! I've fallen into a trap! The whole army will follow me back the way we came! Hurry!"
He reacted quickly, but the people on Liu Yuanhui's side were faster!
The sound of an arrow was heard from the surrounding dense forest.
The Jingzhong Army and the 10,000 Liangshan troops who had been ambushing here for a long time fired an arrow in unison after hearing the sound of the arrow!
With this round of volley, half of Shi Bao's men were instantly pricked into hedgehogs and fell off their horses.
After blocking all the bows and arrows, Shi Bao commanded: "Don't stop! Come with me and rush out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of killing all around.
Just thirteen thousand cavalry rushed out of the dense forest and surrounded them like a tide!
Lu Junyi, Yan Qing, Hua Rong, Wang Ying, and Hu Sanniang each led a team of troops and rushed from the rear and two wings.
Liu Yuanhui, Xing Ai, Yue Fei and three thousand elite loyal troops detoured back to the front of Shi Bao, blocking his way back to the city.
Shi Bao's army was surrounded in the basin, and their formation was in chaos.
"Don't panic! Don't be confused! Follow me to break out towards Shezhou City!"
Shi Bao shouted and everyone rushed towards the Jingzhong Army.
"Fire the arrow!" Liu Yuanhui ordered.
The Jingzhong Army dived and fired another round of volleys. Another piece of Shi Bao fell behind him, and the deputy general was also shot.
After the rain of arrows, both sides fought hand to hand.
Although the combat power of Shi Bao's men was one of the best among the rebels, it was a pity that they faced an elite loyal army that was only one in ten thousand. Coupled with the attack from above, Shi Bao's cavalry was instantly overwhelmed!
Xing Ai and Yue Fei fought with guns and Shi Bao.
Shi Bao used the wind knife in one hand and the meteor hammer in the other hand, spinning like flying, attacking from the left and right.
Xing Ai and Yue Fei were two against each other but couldn't get close.
Liu Yuanhui's army, which had the right time and place, quickly defeated Shi Bao's seven thousand cavalry, and then surrounded Shi Bao one after another.
While Xing Ai and Yue Fei were attacking from a flank, Hua Rong not far away fired several cold arrows at Shi Bao.
Soon he was struggling.
Shi Bao looked around and knew that if he didn't break out, he would be chopped into pieces by the people surrounding him.
He gritted his teeth and jerked the reins!
The maroon horse under his crotch made a long neigh and stood up!
Shi Bao raised the Wind-Splitting Sword and shouted: "Split the Wind!"
The broadsword and the horse fell at the same time, and an elite cavalryman and horse directly in front of Shi Bao were split in half in an instant.
A gust of bloody swords rushed forward, and everyone in front of them dodged. There were broken arms and broken legs that were too late to dodge.
Shi Bao used all his strength to cut a bloody path, and the road ahead was smooth. He swung the meteor hammer backwards, and after repelling the people who were chasing him, he whipped up his horse and fled towards the dense forest.
Everyone in Liangshan had been fighting for so many days, and it was rare to win a single victory. They immediately wanted to pursue them, but Liu Yuanhui stopped them and asked everyone to return to the city.
In this battle, all 7,000 cavalrymen in Shezhou City were wiped out.
Shi Bao, who was running away in embarrassment, couldn't figure out why the battle reports sent by Shenggong's trump card, Lieutenant Ying Gao, had always been accurate, but why they suddenly failed this time.
……
At this time, Liu Yuanhui was inside the tent.
Gao Qiu, who had been hungry all day, waited and waited but did not hear the sound of Shi Bao attacking the camp.
He was covered with a blanket and stood in front of the big tent window with dark circles under his eyes.
At ten o'clock in the morning, Li Kui yawned and brought Gao Qiu breakfast - beef with soy sauce.
Seeing that Gao Qiu was not sleeping, Li Kui asked, "Huh? Why don't you sleep? What are you waiting for?"
Gao Qiu was startled by Li Kui, turned around and said: "It's nothing, nothing..."
Shi Bao, who took a detour back to Shezhou City, wrote a letter to Gao Qiu before taking off his armor. There were only a few words in the letter: "The military situation is deceptive! Seven thousand cavalry were wiped out. Why?"
Soon the Xinque fell into the hands of Liu Yuanhui. He imitated Shi Bao's notes and wrote to Gao Qiu:
"I forgot to mention it. It was agreed that on that day, Shi would feel unwell and suffer from diarrhea, so we would carry out the sneak attack on another day!"
Gao Qiu frowned after reading the letter.
That Shi Bao has always been shrewd, but seeing such an urgent military situation and an excellent opportunity, he stopped attacking because of a stomachache?
He immediately wrote back to Shi Bao:
"The officers and soldiers have been exhausted recently, which is the perfect time for a sneak attack. Liu Yuanhui has returned. This man is extremely cunning. If we wait any longer, we may have many nightmares! We must attack tomorrow when it gets ugly! Remember!"
Liu Yuanhui read Gao Qiu's reply to Shi Bao, smiled slightly and wrote: "Recently, one hundred thousand reinforcements came from the imperial court, and the wise Liu Yuanhui has returned to camp. Please stick to the city! If there is no news, never go out of the city to attack! Remember! "
