On the branches of the moon, all the dark clouds in the sky were sleeping.
Occasionally, a few naughty stars would shine like a blink of an eye.
However, the hazy light like fireflies would be covered by the slowly passing dark clouds in an instant.
Ma Chao was very satisfied with this kind of night.
For him, this kind of night was just right: dark moon and high wind, perfect for killing people.
"When fighting the enemy during the day, you must set up many flags and flags to deceive the enemy.
If you fight the enemy at night, you must use fake torches to deceive the enemy.
The enemy cannot predict their numbers.
The Dharma says: In a day battle, use many flags and in a night battle, use many torches."
Ma Chao arranged for his more than a thousand Xiliang cavalry to tie unlit torches to tree branches or find wooden stakes to hold them up.
In addition to those who beat gongs and drums, each person must also hold two torches and listen quietly.
Follow the movement in the city.
At the city gate, the bandits finally surged out.
Ma Chao's eyes were shining, but he remained silent.
More than a thousand Xiliang soldiers on horseback were like statues, even their breathing was hidden.
Ma Chao was greatly relieved: after more than a month of training, these veterans had finally become some kind of iron-blooded warriors.
After a long time, a rocket finally shot out of the sky, and the firelight immediately made the stars in the sky feel ashamed.
Ma Chao waved his hand, and his more than a thousand veterans immediately lit the torches in their hands and the imaginary torches.
The hundred or so people in front immediately dispersed to various places, beating gongs and drums.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise from all directions in Xinping County, causing the few remaining bandits in the city to panic.
"It's terrible, the Xiliang cavalry are coming!"
Xiao Tian shouted at the top of his lungs.
His loud voice could be heard for more than a mile.
He shouted while throwing oil bottles into the bandit camp, and then shot a rocket, which immediately made the entire bandit camp ablaze.
The fire spread quickly.
Before those bandits could react, Xiao Tian took the more than ten shadows who had sneaked into Xinping County a month ago and rushed to the city gate: "No, Xiliang Jinmachao came and our leader was killed.
The camp is on fire and Xinping County is about to be captured."
There were originally several hundred soldiers guarding the city gate, but they attacked and took away almost all of them.
At this time, only seven or eight bandits were left to guard the city.
Seeing Xiao Tian in such a panic, he actually thought for a moment that the Xiliang Iron Cavalry was approaching the city and a disaster was imminent.
"You are impudent and disturbing the morale of the army.
I think you are tired of living."
Among the thieves guarding the city gate, there were also several veterans.
Without thinking, he rushed to restore the morale of the army.
But when those people ran up to them, their expressions changed.
I saw Xiao Tian suddenly pull out a crossbow from his waist, and fired a round at the veterans.
The veteran had managed to dodge in time at night, but he was immediately shot to the point of being turned upside down, and then was killed by Xiao Tian with a single blow.
"Welcome the young master into the city," Xiao Tian raised his arms and shouted, instructing the shadows to pull up the iron rope and open the city gate.
The bandits were so hungry that their eyes were green, and they only relied on sleep to maintain their strength.
At this moment, they heard the shouting and shouting in the city, and saw the fire in the camp.
They climbed out of the bed naked, and didn't care whose clothes they were.
They just wrapped them up and panicked.
He panicked and fled in all directions.
Ma Chao was not impatient at this time.
Instead, he let his cavalry run around, waving torches and pretending to be a large-scale invasion, waiting for Xiao Tian to open all the city gates.

Not only that, Ma Chao also prepared a lot of extra oil bottles and rockets this time, specifically setting fires all over the city wall, working inside and outside, making the bandits think that the Xiliang cavalry had already burned, killed and looted.
"Hit" Ma Chao's arrow was like a shooting star, shooting a bandit who was caught off guard to the ground.
Moreover, every time they shoot an arrow, they have to change places, and the same goes for their personal guards, lest the enemy calm down and find that there are only more than a thousand of them.
Because Ma Chao made it very clear this time, go into battle lightly and focus on sneak attacks, assassinations, and bluffing to scare away the bandits.
The horse was shocked to death.
The thieves who had not received professional training had no idea what was going on.
They all thought that the Xiliang cavalry had really encircled and suppressed them.
For a moment, all the ugly words, including crying for father and mother, cursing heaven and earth, came out of his mouth.
They picked up their weapons and valuables and ran to a place with fewer torches, hoping to escape from the weak point of the Xiliang cavalry attack and ascend to heaven.
"In all sieges, a corner must be opened on all four sides to show the way out, so that the enemy's battle is not strong, the city can be taken out, and the army can be broken.
The law says: there must be a shortage of siege troops."
Ma Chao and others brought many torches, but most of them were arranged on three sides, and most of the fire and cold arrows were set on these three sides, deliberately leaving an easy escape route for the bandits.
Of course, there were neither Xiliang cavalry nor obstacles blocking the easy road.
There were only ten thousand soldiers from Beidi County who had been waiting for a long time.
The fire was soaring into the sky and there was noise from all directions.
The thieves had already fled in all directions like frightened rats.
When they saw that there was not much movement on the west side of the city gate, they all fled towards the west side city gate.
At this time, Xiao Tian also took advantage of the chaos to open the three city gates, fired a rocket into the air, and then led the shadow troops to escape into the shop.
He took off his night clothes and, like a frightened merchant, tightly Close the shop door and tremble inside When Ma Chao saw Na Di's two rockets finally taking off, he immediately ordered the Xiliang cavalry at the three city gates to rush into the city gates.
Suddenly, the suppressed bloodthirsty aura suddenly burst out, and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry suddenly transformed into a night demon, riding an indestructible dream horse, raging like a hurricane in the city, driving away those who were like a herd of sheep.
The distraught bandits drove towards the west gate.
Ma Chao took the lead, but he didn't test his martial arts much in this battle.
After all, among this group of thieves, there was no one worthy of his attack.
But after this battle, he suddenly felt that his desire to rule was more solid.
He has a clearer understanding of the control of the battlefield, the use of strategies, the choice of timing, and more importantly, the beginning and end of the entire battle situation.
His heart was so happy that Ma Chao couldn't wait to turn these insights into instincts and leave them in his blood.
But the battle was still going on, so he had no choice but to rush forward.
When he saw the fleeing bandits, he slashed them to death without mercy.
He was like the ancestor of murderers and the demon king in the world.
Although the thieves were all grown up, they were no match for their bravery.
What’s more, most of them used foot soldiers and cavalry at this time.
When dealing with the Xiliang cavalry, they were weak in terms of momentum, strength, morale, bravery and technique.
Countless points.
During the hasty resistance, only flesh and blood were flying everywhere, and the cold light was shining.
When his head fell to the ground, he realized that it was not someone else who died but himself.
The one who finally ended the war was Pang De, Chou Ge and Ma Dai, who led the Xiliang cavalry after annihilation and joined the pursuit.
Especially Ma Dai, who was carrying the candidate head, was even more crazy.
In general, they hunted down those poor thieves everywhere.
This battle was only completed when they reached the official road on the west side of the main road, where You Chu could be seen faintly using a net and rope to capture prisoners in front.
At this time, the sky was gradually starting to get brighter.
Ma Chao looked at the rising sunrise in the east and felt that the golden threads of the clouds were rendered more beautiful by this sunrise, which was much softer than the tragic sunrise he had seen in Fufeng County. s: Thank you Ye Yeqiufeng for the tip.
