Li Wu led the remnants of the army to flee in a hurry, and soon escaped from the pursuit range of the Serbian army, and disappeared into the vast grassland, to be honest, Li Wu did not expect that he would lose so badly this time, not only did he receive any results, but the army lost one-third, but soon Li Wu adjusted from this grief, as a commander Li Wu needs to learn to adjust his emotions at all times, if Li Wu's mood is not good, it will soon affect the entire army.
After Li Wu led the army to escape, he immediately led the remnants of the army to converge with Hua Ma and Mu Zheng, and after the two armies combined, they counted that there were less than 10,000 horsemen left in the army, and Hua Ma and Mu Zheng came to Li Wu, who was covered in blood, and asked: "Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?"
Li Wu said angrily: "The idea is too strong, not only did I not succeed, but I also broke a lot of soldiers and horses."
"It seems that the Serbian army is very well prepared this time."
"Even if the preparation is sufficient, there will be loopholes, and the more fully prepared the enemy is, the more it shows the necessity of our blockade, and in any case we must cut off this batch of grain and grass from the Serbian army."
"Lord Wang, our army has just been defeated for a while, and you still have to attack, this is inevitable" "It is precisely because our army has just been defeated for a while that this king has decided to attack again, and tonight our army will attack the camp of the Cypriot army at night; The newly defeated generals of our army would never have thought of attacking again so soon."
"The prince is reasonable, and he will obey his orders."
"Old general, although the king decided to attack at night, but still not to underestimate the enemy, this time the Serbian army escorting grain and grass is no longer the previous wine bag and rice bag, although the Serbian army is mostly foot soldiers, but it seems that they have found a way to ride with foot."
"Please show me."
Li Wu squatted on the ground and used a wooden stick to scratch on the ground and explained to Hua Ma and Mu Zheng: "Old general, please see, when the king led the cavalry to attack the Cypriot army, the Cypriot infantry would immediately use the grain cart as a barrier to form a circle, with pikemen and crossbowmen inside; If our cavalry unit wants to break through the enemy formation, it can only step over the grain trucks, but there are many spears inside, and it is basically impossible to jump into it, so the only way to break the formation is to destroy all the enemy formations before they are assembled. ” "In this case, the cavalry must be very fast and attack the enemy when they are unprepared."
"Tonight's night attack, dig out his old nest" The Xia army is hidden in a mountain col, in order to prevent being discovered by the Cypriot army, all the Xia soldiers are not allowed to make fire, so the Xia soldiers can only eat cold food, which may be difficult for ordinary people to accept, but for the Xia soldiers it is commonplace, although Li Wu is the commander of the whole army, but Li Wu has never been special, all the roots are the same as ordinary soldiers, plus those military exploits, so Li Wu's prestige in the army is very high.
At night, Li Wu led the only remaining 10,000 Xia cavalry to set off, before this Li Wu had already sent a large number of spies to find the location of the Serbian camp, since the decision to attack at night, it was necessary to make adequate preparations, Li Wu did not want to let the tragedy of the day repeat, in order to maximize the results of the night attack, Li Wu put the time of the night attack in the second half of the night.
On a high ground outside the Serbian military camp, Li Wuhe, Hua Ma and Mu Zheng took dozens of soldiers to lie on the ground and observe the entire Serbian army camp.
Li Wu whispered to Hua Ma and Mu Zheng: "Old general, look, the camp of the Serbian army tonight is relatively scattered, especially in the west corner, which is a little far away from their main camp; We are divided into two routes, you and I each take 5,000 soldiers and horses, first take this corner of the west, and then scatter to make the situation as chaotic as possible, so that we can take advantage of the chaos and tell our brothers not to be greedy, we must evacuate after dawn, and we will assemble in the camp where we are hiding during the day today. ” "Yes, the Admiral understands."
Time flies quickly, the second half of the night is coming soon, Li Wu and Hua Ma and Mu Zheng each led 5,000 soldiers and horses to divide into two roads, from both sides to attack the Serbian camp, before launching the attack, Li Wu sent a small force to solve the Serbian army's guard post on the periphery, after solving the Serbian army's guard post, the Serbian army's camp can be said to be open, but the speed of the cavalry charge is still very large, and the sound of the earth shaking soon alarmed the sleeping Serbian army.
But at this time it was too late, the Xia cavalry had already broken into the camp of the Serbian army, after entering the camp of the Serbian army, the Xia army saw people and then set fire to the grain and grass of the Serbian army, and soon the entire western part of the Serbian army camp was full of smoke, the Xia army did not stop the offensive for this, but the momentum of the offensive was greater, because the Xia army was a cavalry battle without a trace, so the Serbian army was basically in the passive part of being beaten.
However, this situation was quickly contained, and some middle-level officers of the Serbian army began to organize troops to defend in key areas, forming defensive points one by one, and then connecting these defensive points into a line of defense to limit the range of activities of the Xia cavalry as much as possible.
When the Serbian defense line was not formed, Li Wu had led people to break through many times, the reaction speed of the Serbian army was too fast, if Li Wu led the stay in it for too long, it was very likely that he would not be able to get out, under the attack of the Xia army, the Serbian army could not spare time to extinguish the fire, so the fire burned bigger and bigger, and there was some wind at night on the guy, so soon the fire spread to half of the small battalion of the Serbian army.
Li Wu saw that his plan had basically succeeded, so he decisively issued a military order: "Order all armies to retreat." ” "Woo, woo, woo, woo" The sound of the horn of retreat spread throughout the entire camp of the Serbian army, and the soldiers of the Xia army who heard the horn turned their horses and retreated, because the fire was too large and could be seen from a long distance; After the evacuation of the Xia army, the soldiers of the Serbian army began to fight the fire under the organization of the generals of various departments, because the fire was too large to completely extinguish it was basically impossible, and the only thing that could be done now was to rescue some grain and grass materials from the fire.
At this time, Sevic was leading 30,000 cavalry to march southward, and suddenly the adjutant general next to him said to Sevic: "General, look. ” Sevic looked in the direction of the adjutant general's finger, and saw that half of the sky in the south had been dyed red, and Sevic immediately realized that the big thing was not good, so he decisively issued a military order: "Order the whole army to attack at full speed, and we must meet the grain army in the shortest possible time." ” The loss of food and grass of the Serbian army was inevitable, but it was not all lost, although Li Wu won the victory in the night attack, but also paid the price of hundreds of people; Li Wu's action can be said to have completely annoyed Ma Liksha, who immediately decided to send a large army to encircle and suppress Li Wu after receiving the news, but due to the poor traffic of the news, Li Liangzuo did not get the news, this is an opportunity for Li Liangzuo, whether the Xia army can fight back depends on how Li Liangzuo will choose.
