After discussing it, Qian Zhao and others immediately dispatched Zhang He and Guo Yuan to organize the capture operation, while Qian Zhao stayed in the city and provided logistical support for them.
After the plan was finalized, Qian Zhao immediately dispatched scouts to inform the magistrate of Quzhou County and pay close attention to the movements of the pottery merchants.
A few days later, the pottery merchant took action.
Two young generals, A Fei and Huang Xu, took action again. They each led an army and quietly headed towards Quzhou County.
It seems careless, but in fact the goal is clear.
According to the march route of the two of them, they should attack Quzhou County from a flank.
Zhang He and Guo Yuan take action immediately!
The two men had a clear division of labor. After Zhang He led his troops to attack A Fei, Guo Yuan led his troops to attack Huang Xu.
The two set off immediately.
According to time calculation, when they caught up with their respective targets, A Fei and Huang Xu probably had not yet invaded Quzhou County. As long as the Quzhou County magistrate strictly defended it, nothing would happen in a short time.
event.
Therefore, this war will still be fought in the wild.
On the night they caught up with A Fei and Huang Xu, Zhang He and Guo Yuan took action respectively.
A crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and the white moonlight looks particularly mysterious. When it shines on the earth, it has an indescribable softness that makes people intoxicated.
The weather is neither hot nor cold, and is extremely comfortable. It should have been a slightly cold night, but tonight it was very warm and comfortable.
It was on such a night that Guo Yuan gathered his troops and prepared to attack Huang Xu's camp at night.
Huang Xu's camp is thirty miles southwest of Quzhou County.
When Guo Yuan was about to sneak attack Huang Xu, the time had already passed the third quarter of the hour. This moment was the most stupid time for ordinary people to sleep.
Looking at the quiet and peaceful camp not far away, Guo Yuan waved to the soldiers behind him.
Then they saw a heavily armed advance force of the Yuan Army quietly moving towards Huang Xu's camp. They quickly moved the antlers at the entrance of the camp and secretly moved into the camp.
Guo Yuan's main force also followed closely.
In order not to wake up the soldiers in Huang Xu's army, Guo Yuan stole the camp this time and even brought few horses. He only brought a few honest war horses, and the horses' hooves and mouths were wrapped with cloth to prevent them from making any noise.
Able to achieve maximum sneak attack results.
Judging from the current situation, Guo Yuan's design plan this time was successful.
"Fire the arrow!" Guo Yuan ordered through gritted teeth after entering the camp gate.
After the order was given, a battalion of archers behind him lit the torches in their hands, then pointed their bows and arrows into the sky, and a large number of rockets roared towards the tents in Huang Xu's camp.
Not long after, I saw a circle of tents on the outermost side of the camp burning fiercely.
"It's gone!"
"It's gone!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
Countless voices rang out, and in the camp, some figures began to rush back and forth, running back and forth to put out fires in the camp.
Guo Yuan straightened up, spit out the leaves in his mouth on the ground, raised his weapon, and shouted: "Brothers, follow me and fight in!"
"Kill!"
"Come in and capture the Huang family's son alive!"
Following Guo Yuan's order, soldiers of the Yuan Army appeared one after another. Taking advantage of the sudden fire, the Jinling Army was caught off guard and launched an attack into the camp.
The Jinling Army's attention was attracted by the fire, and they were caught off guard. They did not organize an effective defense, and Yuan's army rushed into the stronghold one after another.
The soldiers of Yuan's army were well prepared, and for a moment they were so brave that the Jinling army was caught off guard and unable to resist, especially the general of Yuan's army, Guo Yuan.
Guo Yuan brandished his sword and led his soldiers, rushing into the center of Yuan Jun's camp with overwhelming force. His purpose was very clear, which was to capture Huang Xu alive and use him later to force Tao Shang to withdraw his troops, or to use him to alienate Tao Shang.
The relationship between Shang and Huang Zhong.
There were not many soldiers and horses behind Guo Yuan, only more than a hundred personal guards, but their fighting spirit was extremely strong. Many Jinling soldiers came out to stop them along the way, but they were all defeated by them.
Guo Yuan’s purpose is very clear!
To capture the thief, capture the king first!
Instead of killing a thousand enemy soldiers in the entire enemy camp, it would be better to directly capture the enemy general and solve the problem in one fell swoop.
Before long, Guo Yuan led his troops to the tent where Huang Xu was.
Guo Yuan stood outside Huang Xu's tent, licked his lips, and then ordered: "Get them all, rush into the tent, don't hurt that kid's life, it will be of great use to capture him alive and lead the general."
Behind Guo Yuan, the soldiers agreed one after another.
Guo Yuan licked his lips, clenched his sword and strode into the tent.
Inside the tent, the person on the bed was still sleeping soundly, and was still wrapped in a quilt. There was chaos outside the tent, but the person on the bed seemed to ignore it.
Guo Yuan laughed: "What a good boy, how can you still sleep after making such a fuss? He's not an easy master!"
After saying that, he saw Guo Yuan step forward, grab the quilt, and lift it suddenly.
It would be better not to knock it over. After this knock, Guo Yuan was stunned.
Lying inside that bed... was actually a scarecrow.
"No! I fell into a trap!"
When Guo Yuan saw this, his face suddenly turned pale. He turned around quickly and hurried out of the tent.
After leaving the camp, Guo Yuangang wanted to shout to everyone to withdraw the troops, but the situation in front of him made him speechless.
Three Jinling troops rushed towards Guo Yuan's commander's tent from all directions.
Among the soldiers and horses in the middle, there was a young general with a pale face and a relatively weak look. He held a long knife and looked at Guo Yuan calmly.
Guo Yuan gritted his teeth angrily.
"Are you Huang Xu?"
Huang Xu nodded lightly and said, "This boy is Huang Xu. He has met General Guo."
At the same time, Yuan Jun, who was attacking the Jinling Army in the outer village, was attacked from both sides.
A Biao army under the personal command of Tao Shang launched an attack from the outside of the tent camp to the inside. They responded internally and externally, and attacked Yuan's army from a flank.
Although Guo Yuan did not see the situation with his own eyes, he suddenly trembled when he heard the sound from far away.
He is also a battle-hardened general, and he can naturally tell what the current situation is just by listening to his voice.
He gritted his teeth and stared at Huang Xu: "You have already planned it. Are you plotting against me?"
Huang Xu felt a little guilty when he was looked at by Guo Yuan's vicious eyes: "I didn't do this on purpose. I was just following orders. Please forgive me, General Guo!"
Guo Yuan said angrily: "Good boy, how dare you tease me?"
After saying that, he saw Guo Yuan angrily rushing towards Huang Xu with a knife.
"You brat, you're looking for death!"
Huang Xu did not dare to neglect. While commanding his soldiers to fight against Yuan's army, Huang Xu personally fought against Guo Yuan with a sword.
Guo Yuan came to Huang Xu, jumped up, and slashed Huang Xu with his sword.
In his opinion, this kid looked weak and weak, so he wouldn't be such a troublesome person. If he wanted to deal with him, it wouldn't be too difficult for him.
It would be no problem to kill fifty or seventy of such a young man.
