Chapter 521: The Moon Full Night (Part 2)
Outside Ahyan City, a huge tent had been set up on a high ground about ten miles away from Shangjiasu's army camp. This is what Shangjiasu called the middle tent, which means that it was not in the other party's camp. In the dark, the surroundings of the huge tent were empty, and only a few soldiers were on guard. But if you look carefully, you will find that the soil around this high ground is a bit strange, as if it had just been renovated, but ordinary people would not pay attention to these details.
The soldiers sent by Shang Xi Dongzan have inspected the surrounding situation. Shang Jiasu only brought one hundred personal soldiers to discuss the details of the cooperation. These people cannot pose a threat to Shang Xi Dongzan.
Although Shang Xi Dongzan once went to Lancheng monk Shang Jiasu alone to negotiate, they only talked about cooperation at this time and there was no plan to annex each other. At this time, their cooperation had reached the most critical moment, and any changes would happen.
Night is the best cover for sin. Shang Jiasu has already arrived one step ahead. He stood by the big tent and looked at the dark Ahn City from afar, his eyes full of murderous intent. At this time, his eyes turned to the northeast again, where the camp of Shang Xi Dongzan was located. Less than ten miles away from his camp, as long as he killed Shang Xi Dongzan, he could take the opportunity to collect Shang Xi Dongzan's army.
Not far away were several personal soldiers of Shang Xi Dongzan. They watched the surrounding situation vigilantly, especially Shang Jiasu's camp. They paid more attention to every move there. Once there is an abnormal army mobilization there, they will immediately notify Shang Xi Dongzan.
A cold smile appeared in Shang Jiasu's eyes. He glanced at the back of the high ground from the corner of his eyes. Suddenly he found a pile of new soil moving slightly. A hint of anger rose in his heart, giving his personal soldiers a wink. The personal soldiers understood and slowly walked over and stepped on the pile of slightly moving soil.
At this time, a fire appeared in the distance, and a team of more than a hundred people surrounded Shang Xidongzan. Shang Jiasu's heart was pounding. A personal soldier who went to verify rushed over and whispered in his ear: "It's Shang Xidongzan, a total of 103 people."
"Okay! Start when he enters the tent."
Shang Jiasu slowly retreated back to the big tent. Chen Shangxi Dongzan's personal soldiers were unprepared and walked out of another small gate and walked down the high ground along a path. An owl's chirping sounded, and the mound on Gaogang quietly flipped, and several bright long swords emerged from the mound.
In a dark forest two miles away, the two thousand elite soldiers arranged by Shang Jiasu are ready and can be launched at any time.

There is a large forest outside Ayan City, with a green silk scarf wrapped around the city tightly. At this time, there is also a forest about two miles away from Shangjiasu Camp. The forest is silent, filled with a faint murderous aura. In the depths of the forest, a "Tubo cavalry" of about 500 people is lurking quietly, waiting for the moment when the opportunity comes.
These five hundred people were naturally redesigned by the Tang army. They were just wearing Tubo armor and attacked at critical moments. These five hundred Tang army was the first scout camp of the Anxi Army, the army of Li Qing'an, and the most elite army of the Anxi Army. Everyone has high martial arts skills and has the ability to wear Yang in a hundred steps. If the scout is the special forces of the Tang army, then the first scout camp is the special forces in the special forces, and even their war horses, it seems to be humane, and it is quiet from beginning to end.
The general who led this scout camp to carry out the mission today was Zhonglang General Qin Haiyang. This legendary old scout general in the Anxi Army has become one of Li Qing'an's confidant generals. Some major special tasks are completed by him. For example, the action tonight is related to the trend of the entire Tochari Battle. Li Qing'an dared not be careless. He not only sent the most elite first scout camp, but also sent this experienced scout veteran.
Qin Haiyang and the First Scout Camp did not disappoint Li Qing'an. Although Shang Xidongzan set up a team of spies east of Ayan City after the food was robbed, the First Scout Camp marched extremely mysteriously. He escaped the surveillance of all spies and successfully arrived at Ayan City and sneaked into the forest.
They lurked into another forest twenty miles away last night, and patiently waited for Shang Jiasu's army to head north. At dusk, they received the latest information. Shang Jiasu's 80,000 troops had already arrived at the city of Ahwan and were stationed three miles away.
At this time, a black shadow ran into the forest and ran to Qin Haiyang to report: "General Qin, someone came out of the city, about 100 people, holding torches toward Gaogang."
The time is almost here, Qin Haiyang waved his hand and whispered: "Go away!"
Five hundred scouts moved quickly, leading their respective war horses and silently walked out of the forest.

At the same time as the Tang army scout camp drove out of the forest, an army of 40,000 people quietly left the city in the south of Ayan City. Shang Xidongzan was wearing a black chain mail, and like all the soldiers, there was a white cloth on his right arm. At this time, their mark was that he carried a spear in his hand, and his goal was very clear, which was Gaogang where Shang Jiasu was.
Shang Xi Dongzan did not want to attack the other side's camp, but wanted to intercept Shang Jiasu who returned from triumphantly. As long as he caught Shang Jiasu, he could force him to submit and obey his command. Although he was a little risky, in order to successfully seize the command of the 80,000 army, Shang Xi Dongzan had to take this risk no matter what.
If he cannot succeed, the two Tubo troops will be completely divided, and the heavy burden is pressed on Shang Xidongzan, and internal and external troubles make him feel very tired. At this time, he has no time to care about the Tang army, but instead focuses on seizing Shang Jiasu's army. Tomorrow is the full moon night, and he has only time tonight.
Shang Xi Dongzan led the army out of the city, but he was not in a hurry to move forward. He stared at the opponent's camp several miles away in the southeast. The lights in the camp were flashing, and someone could faintly see shaking. His eyes turned to Gaogang in the southwest. At this time, he saw a team of torches heading towards Gaogang, which was his substitute.
Shang Xidongzan became nervous inside and his eyes were fixed on Gao Gangshang.

Above Gaogang, 'Shangxi Dongzan' was approaching the giant tent. An officer came up and said, "General Shangxi Dongzan, everything is ready. My general is waiting in the big tent, please!"
"Yeah! I get it."
"Shang Xi Dongzan" agreed in a muffled voice, turned over and dismounted, and walked quickly towards the tent. More than 100 of his personal soldiers followed closely, walked to the door of the tent, and heard the owl's roar. This time, it was the second time. From the land behind Gao Gang, piles of shallow soil were lifted open. Below were wooden boards. Under the wooden boards, there were deep pits, three or five Tubo soldiers holding sharp blades squatted inside. They jumped out of the pit, and black soldiers suddenly appeared on the hillside, with thousands of people, and the long sword in their hands emitting a cold light in the dark night.
"Who are you?"
Someone noticed them and shouted loudly, "Master, there is something wrong!"
‘Shang Xi Dongzan’ was shocked and his steps to get in the tent stopped. At this time, there were shouts of killing coming from all over the world. More than a thousand Tubo soldiers rushed up from all directions, "Kill! Kill Shang Xi Dongzan!"
Shang Xi Dongzan's personal soldiers were caught off guard and were chopped over twenty people in one go. The enemy troops rushed over from all directions. They fought to the death and protected the "Shang Xi Dongzan" to break through to Gao Gangxia.
A mile away, Shang Jiasu looked at the battle on Gao Gang coldly, with a smug smile in his eyes. He did not expect that it would be so easy to succeed. The ten thousand troops he ambushed could hardly have any effect.
The two thousand elite soldiers lying in the forest several miles away had slowly walked out of the forest. They did not receive the order of Shang Jiasu's attack, and their hearts were filled with an inexplicable loss and a feeling of punching the empty fists.
The shouts of killing on Gao Gang became less and less, and gradually became silent. "Shang Xi Dongzan" was unable to get out of Gao Gang in the end and was swallowed by more than a thousand of his own people. After a moment, there was only a sound of horse hooves, and dozens of people rushed over. An officer held his head high in his hand and shouted proudly: "General! We have succeeded in Shang Xi Dongzan's head."
“Beautiful job!”
Shang Jiasu shouted excitedly. He turned his head to look at Ahncheng. The city was still dark, as if what happened on Gaogang had no effect on them.
Shang Jiasu was stunned. It was impossible to be so quiet. He remembered that Gao Gangshang succeeded so easily. An ominous feeling arose in his heart. He raised his head again and several personal soldiers put the torches close. He saw that this person was indeed very similar to Shang Xi Dongzan, but he was much younger.
"not good!"
Shang Jiasu realized that he had been trapped, so he shouted, "Go back to the camp quickly!"
He turned his horse's head and ran towards his camp, with his subordinates and two thousand cavalry following closely.
But after running for less than a few miles, a scream suddenly came from his left wing. Shang Jiasu turned his head and saw a dark army appearing in the night. They almost attacked. The army was extremely large, with tens of thousands of people, like a sea tide that instantly surrounded Shang Jiasu's army, and the sound of shouts and screams sounded.
Shang Jiasu was so scared that his face turned pale. He knew that this was the main force of Shang Xidongzan. He had seen through his plan and was ambushed here. Shang Jiasu was so anxious that he was at a loss. After a while, he ordered his left and right and said, "Go back to the camp to ask for help!"
"General, we are surrounded and can't get out."
Shang Jiasu knew that he had lived and died for a moment. He was so anxious that he cursed: "Bastard! If you rush out, it will be too late."
Hundreds of personal soldiers formed a commando and broke out, but their 3,000 people were surrounded by 40,000 people and could not break out at all. Shang Xi Dongzan waved his spear and laughed to the sky: "Shang Jiasu, do you think you are smart? In fact, you are the stupidest fool, go and die!"
He turned around and looked east. Ten miles away was Shang Jiasu's camp, but the camp would not know the situation here. He killed all the messengers that Shang Jiasu had dispatched along the way.
Shang Xidongzan shouted loudly: "Those who seize Shang Jia's amateur head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold and a hundred pearls, and will be promoted to the third level!"
The Tubo army bravely stepped forward, and Shang Jiasu and his army were getting smaller and smaller. Gradually, the situation was over.

Shang Jiasu's camp was also in chaos at this time. Hundreds of Tubo cavalrymen ran around the camp like a lantern. Their arrows were like locusts, and they shot densely into the camp. Their archery skills were extremely accurate. Each round of shooting, and a large number of soldiers fell down. In a moment, ten rounds of arrows were shot out, and thousands of casualties were killed and injured. The soldiers were so scared that the soldiers did not dare to approach the camp fence. Soon, the group of cavalry rushed to the vicinity of the camp gate. They lit the rockets. In the dark night, rockets rose into the air and shot towards the camp in parabola. Many tents in the north were lit. The northwest of the camp suddenly burst into the sky, hundreds of tents were ignited, and the camp was in chaos.
Seeing that there were only a few hundred people on the other side, several ten thousand men killed their troops into chaos. They couldn't help but get furious and shouted: "Chasing, cut them all alive!"
The Tubo camp was opened, and tens of thousands of Tubo soldiers ran out of the camp like an ant colony, pounced towards the hundreds. Qin Haiyang opened his bow and took an arrow and shot down a Tubo commander running in front with one arrow. He laughed proudly and said, "Let's go!"
Five hundred cavalry turned their horses and rushed west in agile posture. The Tang army scout camp was equipped with the best Arab war horses. The horses were extremely fast, like flying clouds and fog. The hordes on the Tubo plateau could not catch up with them at all.
But the Tang army was obviously luring the enemy. They were not running fast, and they always maintained a distance of eighty or ninety steps from the Tubo army. The range of Tubo's bows and arrows was about seventy steps. In this way, they were close and separated, making the Tubo army feel that they were only a little bit able to catch up. The 20,000 Tubo army chased after them perseveredly, only chasing seven or eight miles and rushing up a hill, and they discovered the battle in the distance.
Tens of thousands of troops were besieging an army, shouting and killing sounds shook the sky and screaming. The Tubo army pursuing the Tang army was shocked. The commander of the Wanfu, who led the army to pursue, was the first to react, "No! It's the general who was besieged."
