Great Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2290 Night Attack
The existence of these rebels was intolerable to Li Chengqian.

Under the Tang Dynasty under his rule, these rebels were not allowed to exist,

Therefore, even if these rebels can't capture Chang'an City for the time being, they still have to destroy these rebels.

However, with their current strength, it seems that it is not easy to destroy these rebels.

Therefore, he can only seek help from Qin Tian. Maybe Qin Tian has any good solution?

Qin Tian thought for a while, and said: "My lord, there are two ways to deal with the current situation. The first way is that we stick to the city and wait for the arrival of other reinforcements. Although those feudal lords have not moved, they have put me in the other hands of the Tang Dynasty. It’s enough to mobilize some local soldiers and horses, this method is relatively safe, but we don’t know when those reinforcements will come, and if we stick to it, we don’t know how long we can hold on.”

"This second method is a bit risky. If it succeeds, the rebels outside the city will be eliminated immediately. At least the danger of Chang'an City can be eliminated. But if it fails, Chang'an City will be very dangerous. It can even be said It's in jeopardy."

Hearing the second method, Li Chengqian's expression changed slightly. He is not a person who is afraid of taking risks.

"Sir, what is the second method?"

Qin Tiandao: "The rebels must be very tired after a big battle these days. After nightfall, many rebel soldiers will sleep deeply. If we can attack the enemy camp at night at this time, maybe we can have a good one." Effect."

"Night attack?" This method is often used in marching and fighting, but since the arrival of the rebels, none of them have thought about it, because they are short of troops and dare not leave the city easily.

Moreover, Wei Wang and Li Tai are very cautious people, and it is impossible for the night attack to succeed.

However, after hearing Qin Tian's words at this time, they felt that the night attack seemed to be quite good. If they succeeded, those rebels would no longer have the strength to fight against them.

Everyone turned their attention to Li Chengqian, it was up to Li Chengqian whether to attack at night or not.

Li Chengqian thought for a moment and said, "Sir, what are the chances of success?"

"half!"

There is only half the chance, which is really not very high, that is to say, the risk is very high.

However, Li Chengqian showed a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, and said: "Half chance, it's okay, then let's attack at night tonight, and leave everything to the husband."

Qin Tian quickly got up to take orders, and after everyone said a few more words, Qin Tian led them back out.

After returning to the barracks, Qin Tian ordered the soldiers to rest well, but he didn't say anything else.

When midnight approached, Qin Tian sent someone to wake up those soldiers.

Now there are more than 9 soldiers and horses in Chang'an City, including Xiliang soldiers and horses. Qin Tian directly led [-] soldiers and horses out of the city, and only [-] soldiers and horses were left in Chang'an City to prevent accidents.

The summer night is very bright, and the evening wind blows, still carrying a hint of sweltering heat.

Eighty thousand soldiers and horses followed Qin Tian and went straight to the enemy camp.

On the enemy camp side, many soldiers were very sleepy, so they went to rest early, but even though they went to rest, there were still people patrolling the barracks.

Therefore, when Qin Tian and the others were very close to the barracks, the patrolling rebels had already heard the news.

"It's not good, it's not good, the Tang army attacked the camp, the Tang army is going to attack the camp..."

The patrolling rebels quickly spread the news throughout the barracks, but just as they were spreading the news, rockets flew over in the night sky. These rockets flew quickly, and after falling, the rebel camp caught fire. Come.

As soon as the night wind blew, the fire intensified again.

The camp of the rebels was on fire, and many rebels were buried in the sea of ​​flames before they could react. Some of the rebels who rushed out rushed to fight the fire at this time, and the news of the enemy's attack on the camp was more or less ignored.

In other words, they only thought that Tang Jun only used rockets to burn their camps, and nothing else.

After all, there are five princes and five military camps in their place, and each of them is in charge of each other. It is not easy to convey the message clearly.

They just think it's enough to put out the fire.

But while they were fighting the fire like this, Tang Jun, led by Qin Tian, ​​rushed directly into the enemy camp.

"kill!"

As soon as the order was given, the soldiers and horses of the Tang army rushed over, while the rebels were already a little chaotic.

Even if some soldiers and horses knew what was going on and gathered slowly, by the time they were almost assembled, Qin Tian and the others had already killed many rebels.

These rebels were killed, and the morale of the remaining rebels was low. In addition, they were very tired and did not respond very quickly. It would be much more difficult to fight the Tang army.

When Wei Wang Li Tai woke up, the situation in the barracks was a little out of control.

"How did this happen? How dare those Tang troops leave the city to attack the camp?"

He never thought of attacking the camp, but Tang Jun did.

"My lord, what should we do now? Our soldiers are no longer able to fight those Tang troops. They are all scared, tired and panicked. What should we do?"

"Yes, my lord, if we continue to fight, we are likely to be defeated. Now many soldiers have already begun to flee."

"My lord, what should I do?"

Everyone kept asking, Wei Wang Li Tai's eyes were fierce, if he continued to fight, he might not have a chance at all, maybe tomorrow morning, he would become Li Chengqian's prisoner.

But this result was not what he wanted.

After a while, Wei Wang Li Tai already had an idea and said: "Gather the soldiers and horses, break out and return to the fief."

In the current situation, it is safest for them to break through and return to the fiefdom. After arriving in the fiefdom, they may live for a while longer. If they are lucky, they may still have the opportunity to continue to compete with Li Chengqian.

After returning to his fief, there is still a little hope.

After Li Tai's order was issued, a group of soldiers and horses began to gather and fled to their fief. As for the other feudal lords, they didn't bother to take care of them now, they just survived.

And just as Li Tai and the others broke through, Li Ke, King of Shu, Li Zhi, King of Jin, and Li You, King of Qi, had already begun to escape with their soldiers and horses.

They are all relatively clever and able to make quick decisions, but the remaining prince is not so lucky. He overslept, and when he woke up, Tang Jun had already rushed into his camp. , without any explanation, chopped off his head.

Under such circumstances, killing the prince would be more conducive to creating chaos, and it was true that after the prince was killed, his soldiers and horses immediately dispersed and surrendered.
