Chapter 172 Greedy swallows the elephant, and a hundred cavalry rushes into the camp!
Liu Guangzuo was persuaded by Liang Fei.

"Okay, then it's up to you to contact Xiao Yingxun, be quick!"

Liang Fei nodded.

He had already colluded with Xiao Yingxun, otherwise he would not have casually made such a weird suggestion as asking bandits to help suppress thieves.

"If Xiao Yingxun asks about the division of spoils, what will the general say?"

Liu Guangzuo glared at him and said, "What's the division of the spoils? That's too ugly to say. We are annihilating the rebels, and all the proceeds are confiscated. As for Xiao Yingxun, just allow him [-]%."

"Only [-]%? Is it too little?"

Liu Guangzuo sneered, "How many thousands of people can he have? How many of them are comparable to the elite soldiers of the army?"

Giving him [-]% is already a sign of respect for him. Besides, if I told him to give him [-]% or [-]%, would he dare to believe it?Maybe he would think that I was going to kill him afterwards. "

"That's what the general said." Liang Fei nodded first, and then persuaded: "The general is just afraid that the division will be too small, and Xiao Yingxun will not agree."

Liu Guangzuo frowned, "Then I'll allow him 10%, and no more. Liu Thief must have a lot of money and food hoarded in Tang County. Even if it's only [-]%, I'm afraid it's several hundred thousand taels of silver."

"The general knows what to say."

Watching Liang Fei leave, Liu Guangzuo was wondering whether he should kill Xiao Yingxun afterwards.

After all, it is his duty as the commander-in-chief of Nanyang to suppress bandits.

If you miss such a good opportunity, you may never get it again.

On the other side, Liang Fei quickly settled the matter after contacting Xiao Yingxun.

Because Xiao Yingxun noticed the fleet of the Kuei tribe transporting money and grain earlier than the army.

In addition, as Liang Fei said, Xiao Yingxun was already dissatisfied because his scope of activities was greatly squeezed by the Yibu rebels.

After he understood part of the strength of the Yibu Rebel Army, he felt that he was no match for him, so he could only succumb and wait for changes.

As for surrendering to the Wei tribe.

He didn't even think about it.

Ordinary people can see the collapse of the Ming Dynasty, and Henan is full of bandits and grass-headed kings.

He, Xiao Yingxun, had already become so famous in the [-]th year of Chongzhen Dynasty. He controlled both Nanyang and Runing prefectures. Why should he stoop to serve as a subordinate of Liu Sheng, who had only risen to power less than a year ago?
As the saying goes: I would rather have a chicken head than a phoenix tail!
···
February thirteenth.

As soon as the vanguard of the Yibu fleet arrived at Cangtaiji, Li Dingguo led two sentry cavalry under his command to explore ten miles to the north.

"Not far ahead is Longtan Ferry. The narrowest point of the river in that area is only three to forty meters."

A person who had been here before rode up to Li Dingguo and said.

Li Dingguo nodded, a little absent-mindedly.

He thought to himself: I wonder what happened to them.

This "them" naturally refers to Zhang Xianzhong and his three sworn brothers.

Although Li Dingguo felt cold-hearted about Zhang Xianzhong betraying him, after all, human feelings cannot be broken off easily.

Soon, Li Dingguo came back to his senses with a cry of urgency.

"Second General, we found the army camp ahead and sealed the river with three iron ropes!"

Li Dingguo didn't have time to care that this personal attendant still used the old name, so he rode his horse to watch it himself.

Sure enough, we saw a camp on both sides of the river ahead. Just looking at the flags, I was afraid there were tens of thousands of people there!
There were three iron ropes as thick as a child's arm stretched across the river!
Li Dingguo did not panic.

On the way, he participated in several military meetings organized by He Lianyue, Huang Gan and Liu Changhe.

All the battalion and regiment level generals felt that the fleet was so big that the officers and soldiers would not be able to see it unless they were blind.

There may be a situation where "the officers and soldiers are short of troops and dare not intercept them if they see it."

But they can't take any chances.

Therefore, everyone was prepared to deal with the interception by the officers and soldiers.

As for being ambushed by the army.

On the Great Plains, unless the official army has a lot of cavalry, it will be difficult to ambush them.

Because of the normal march, the spies will be spread out at least five miles away, and there are even dozens or hundreds of miles ahead.Only when marching in a hurry or being pursued by the enemy, you will be ambushed because you have no time to explore the surrounding area.

The fleet transporting grain from Kuaibu was like a normal march, and the spies naturally dispersed.Even if the army uses cavalry to ambush, it will be detected several miles away.

At this moment, Li Dingguo detected the existence of the enemy camp ten miles in front of the fleet.

He took a closer look and found that there were obvious differences between the camps on both sides of the river.

Although the camp on the west bank is small, it has clear flags and is well organized. At first glance, it belongs to the army.

Although the camp on the east coast seems to occupy a large area, it is loose and scattered, with no hierarchy and order. There are fewer flags but it is more chaotic.

'Could it be that the east bank is home to soldiers and warriors? '

It was difficult to judge for a moment, so Li Dingguo decided to test it out.

This is the boldness of the art masters.

"Gather all the riders and follow me to scratch the camp on the east bank!"

"Yes!" As Li Dingguo's order was issued, the cavalry that had been scattered around suddenly gathered together and ran with him to the edge of the camp on the east bank!

In the east bank camp, Xiao Yingteng, who was stationed here, was training more than a thousand young men in the middle camp.

Xiao Yingteng was Xiao Yingxun's cousin, and he once served as the commander-in-chief of the Biyang rural soldiers, so Xiao Yingxun gave him the important task of sitting in the camp on the east bank of the upper reaches of the town.

As for Xiao Yingxun himself, he took more than 100 horse bandits and more than 2000 minions to the lower reaches to cooperate with the government troops to block the tail of the fleet.

Among the more than a thousand minions trained by Xiao Yingteng, only a few dozen leaders, big and small, wore leather or cloth armor. The other minions basically had no armor, and some even had thin clothes.

On the contrary, everyone has weapons - at least a spear with a wooden pole and an iron head, and a few people even carry knives and spears.

There are more than 100 archers training alone nearby.

There are still two thousand minions outside the camp responsible for patrolling, sentrying and other guard duties.

Xiao Yingteng, wearing a piece of armor and an iron helmet, walked back and forth on the temporary wooden platform with his hands behind his back, like a general, feeling that his dream of galloping on the battlefield was greatly satisfied.

At this time, another tribesman, Xiao Yingxuan, came over and said in a low voice: "Fifth brother, I still feel that the idea of ​​​​Bago and the army to block the entire fleet is too greedy.

The last time Liu Sheng transported grain, there were more than a thousand ships in the fleet, stretching for nearly ten miles on the Tang River (which was already commonly known as Biesui among the people at that time).

If we use multiple groups of troops to intercept and board the ships to plunder them, then unless Liu Sheng sends tens of thousands of troops to escort him, he will not be able to protect the fleet at all, and something will be lost! "

Xiao Yingteng smiled when he heard this, patted Xiao Yingxuan's shoulder, and spoke in a big brother's tone.

"You should be selected. You have been smart since you were a child. You are the best-read among our Xiao family members in Dahe. You almost passed the examination to become a scholar.

But the boy is too cautious and petty in his dealings with others.

Why do we believe that we should be trained to be masters?Isn’t it because he is grand, courageous and able to convince others?
The man surnamed Liu used so many ships to transport, most of which were loaded with grain and grass, and probably only a few dozen ships were loaded with gold and silver.

If we go by what you said, we will be able to grab a few thousand stones of food and grass at most, but we may not be able to grab gold, silver and jewelry, and we will also lose the lives of some brothers.

We may not encounter such a good opportunity once in several lifetimes. Are you willing to just grab a few thousand stones of food and grass?

Besides, we are now cooperating with Mr. Liu and not swallowing up the entire fleet. Do you think Mr. Liu can agree? "

Xiao Yingxuan said: "I just think that since Liu Sheng transferred so much money and food, he must have some means to deal with the robbery."

"He has the means, but we don't?" Xiao Yingteng sneered, "This time we came out in full force and brought more than 100 cavalry and more than 5000 minions.

General Liu brought [-] battalion soldiers and persuaded the Xinye County Magistrate to lead [-] rural soldiers to help.

The three parties combined have tens of thousands of people, including six to seven hundred cavalry. What are you afraid of what Liu will do? "

Just after Xiao Yingteng finished speaking, he heard the sound of horse hooves approaching quickly.

In the next breath, rapid shouting came from outside the camp——

"Thief Liu is here!"

"It's the cavalry! More than 200 cavalry!"

More than 200 cavalry?
After hearing this, Xiao Yingteng was slightly shocked at first, and then sneered: "You dare to attack our camp with more than 200 horses? You are really looking for death! All the ministries quickly gathered their men and followed me out of the camp to meet the enemy!"

Although Xiao Yingteng said he didn't care about the two hundred incoming cavalry, he immediately led more than a hundred elite bandits to the edge of the camp.

They just camped here yesterday, and they didn't have time to build a barrier. They only dug a trench outside the camp, which was neither deep nor wide.

Although the camp was not as defensive as the fortress, but considering that there were more than [-] minions in the camp, Xiao Yingteng really didn't take the [-] riders seriously.

As soon as he reached the edge of the camp, he saw Li Dingguo leading more than 100 cavalry towards the east side of the camp!

The leader, Li Dingguo, wore a cloth armor, chainmail armor, and a phoenix-winged helmet. He led the way, easily crossed the half-foot-wide ditch, and rushed into the camp in an instant!
Five minions came forward in a hurry, three were so frightened that they hid in haste, and two bravely came forward, but were swept away by Li Dingguo's gun and fell away, not knowing whether they were alive or dead!
Xiao Yingteng was shocked and said in disbelief: "How dare this person rush into the camp?!"

After coming back to his senses, he led the elite bandits to the east side while shouting wildly: "Where are the archers? Gather up and shoot them!"

On the other side, Li Dingguo led more than 100 elite cavalry composed of personal followers, rampaging between tents.

Seeing some archers gathering, Li Dingguo bent his bow and nocked an arrow first, shot the leader who commanded the archers to death with one arrow, and then rushed over with his cavalry.

Along the way, any bandit who dared to stand in front of him would be shot to death, swept away, or trampled by horse hooves.

Suddenly, no one can stop him!
When Li Dingguo approached the camp, he really just wanted to scratch it.

But when they got closer, they found that the camp didn't even have basic defensive measures. Many of the flags were just fake and had no command function. The tents inside were even more messy.

It can be said that it is not much different from those refugee camps.

He immediately judged that this was by no means an official army, a village soldier, a village soldier, or a camp, let alone a camp soldier.

Moreover, the number of people in the camp was too small compared to the tent. It was estimated that there were only 4000 to [-] people, not [-] people.

Only then did he decisively rush into the camp with his subordinates.

After killing the gathering archers, Li Dingguo went straight to the place surrounded by fireworks—according to experience, that was where the kitchen must be.

After rushing over, he found that this was indeed the case, so he set the camp on fire!
The more than 100 riders who followed Li Dingguo into camp were all his personal followers. They cooperated with Li Dingguo in a tacit understanding. They immediately started lighting fires everywhere to spread the fire!
Xiao's camp was in disarray, and they deliberately spread more tents to disguise the number of soldiers. The original intention was to scare the rebels from attacking.

At this time, it was greatly convenient for Li Dingguo and others to set fire.

It just so happened that the southeast wind was blowing again today, and the fire quickly spread to the northwest and swept through the entire camp!

　First more.

　　I'm late.

　　Thanks to [Xingcang Manying] for the 100 starting coin reward!
