Fang Dangjun was afraid that Renli would discover what was going on in the town, so he did not assemble the tribe's troops. Instead, he asked a thousand of his chosen men to prepare their troops at home and prepare for the expedition.
Hearing the loud killing sound at Renli Camp, but not hearing the sound of fire, thunder or explosion, he couldn't help but become confused.
Speaking of which, Lu Junyi and others did not use fire thunder simply because the war horses they used were war horses captured from Yanzhou, not their original war horses. When they crossed the vast sea, in order to reduce their baggage, all their horses stayed in Weizhou.
A war horse that has not been trained by the sound of fire and thunder explosions will be frightened once it hears the fire and thunder explosions, so Lu Junyi had to give up using fire thunder.
Fang Dangjun couldn't figure it out for a while, and he didn't dare to rush out with others. He walked around the courtyard twice, and suddenly an idea came to him and he shouted: "Bring the ladder and get to the roof."
Hearing the leader¡¯s instructions, the guards in the courtyard hurried to the backyard and brought the ladder.
Fang Dangjun personally climbed to the roof and looked at the Renli Camp. He saw that dozens of fires had broken out in the Renli Camp, and it didn't look like there was any fraud.
No matter who attacks Renli Camp, Fang Dangjun does not want to miss this opportunity, otherwise he will take all the adults of the tribe to face the divine thunder of Yanzhou Daliang soldiers and horses tomorrow.
Fang Dangjun climbed down from the yard in a hurry and shouted: "Gather the troops and horses."
"Woo woo woo"
The sound of the trumpet immediately spread throughout the town, and the selected men and women from each household immediately gathered outside Fangdangjun's house with swords and guns in hand.
When Fang Dangjun came out of the courtyard, he saw that seven or eight hundred people had gathered, and the remaining people were also arriving one after another, so they no longer waited for anyone.
"kill"
"kill"
"kill"
Fangdangjun had already spread the news that Renli was going to drive all the adults in the tribe to die. The men and women in the Fangdang tribe were filled with indignation.
Fang Dangjun shouted, and everyone roared.
Wherever Fang Dangjun went, the crowd made way. Then he turned around and followed Fang Dangjun and rushed out of the town.
Fang Dangjun already knew the defense of Renli Camp, so he did not let the tribesmen ride horses, but just asked each household to prepare torches.
Under the illumination of torches, although everyone rushed towards the Renli camp quickly, few people stepped on the porcelain caltrops.
There was chaos in the Renli camp at this time. After receiving orders from Renli, various troops and horses that had been assembled returned to their respective accounts. Some people even heard that only a few hundred people attacked the camp. He took off all the armor he had just put on and fell asleep again.
Lu Junyi captured Renli alive and did not stop. He took a horse and a spear. Then he killed a thousand people gathered by Renli, and then continued to kill in the camp.
Yan Qing and others also followed Lu Junyi closely. When they encountered a nearby tent, they threw their torches up and ignited the fire everywhere.
The camp of 20,000 people is not small, but it is not big either, especially with the galloping horses. Within a moment, Lu Junyi reached the rear camp.
Lu Junyi saw that there were no camp tents in front of him, so he turned his horse around and went back, leading hundreds of horsemen to continuously charge and kill in the camp. As long as there are soldiers and horses gathered, Lu Junyi will kill them without hesitation. Therefore, no effective resistance force has been formed in the camp.
But the last straw that broke the camel's back was the soldiers and horses of the Fangdang tribe.
Under the attack and killing by Lu Junyi and others, the Xixia soldiers in the camp were panicked. Without discerning what was going on, I heard a sudden killing sound from the other side. Thinking that the Liang army was coming, many people gave up resistance and fled directly into the darkness.
Some people heard that the soldiers and horses later came from the direction of the Fangdang tribe, and shouted that reinforcements were coming. However, when they saw the Fangdang tribesmen slashing their steel knives at the soldiers and horses in the camp, they knew that the Fangdang tribe was from the camp. Standing on the side of Daliang soldiers and horses.
When the Fangdang tribe entered the camp, the fighting in the camp had come to an end. Some people fled, and some abandoned their weapons and surrendered.
Soon, there were prisoners kneeling on the ground in the camp.
However, Lu Junyi did not dare to let his cavalry troops stop. He could only divide the cavalry troops into several teams and keep running in the camp, putting pressure on the prisoners kneeling on the ground.
Once they stop, the deterrence of hundreds of people will be greatly reduced, and the prisoners on the ground will most likely take the opportunity to escape, or even surround and kill them.
Under the threat of Daliang soldiers and horses, the surrendered Xixia soldiers knelt on the ground obediently, and the Fangdang tribe began to collect their weapons.
But there were weapons everywhere in the camp. Not only were there weapons in front of the people kneeling on the ground, there were many weapons in the tents, and there were also weapons dropped by people who fled on the road.
Yan Qing looked at the house and the tribal people were making slow progress, so he shouted: "Hurry everyone to the camp gate."outside. "
Fang Dangjun also felt that the speed of collecting weapons was too slow, and the Daliang horse army obviously could not run for a long time. He immediately commanded the tribesmen and drove groups of troops to the open space outside the camp.
Although there were more and more prisoners outside the camp, they did not dare to make a sound when facing the 200-strong horse army staring at them in the distance, with bare hands and no horses.
The Daliang horse army has been divided into two parts. One part is running continuously in the camp to prevent the prisoners in the camp from surrendering, and the other part is riding horses on both sides of the camp to monitor the prisoners outside the camp. Once the prisoners outside the camp escape, they can chase them on horseback.
Lu Junyi saw that there were thousands of prisoners outside the camp, so he immediately ordered people to go to Yanzhou to mobilize another thousand troops and horses.
Fang Dangjun directed the tribesmen to drive the prisoners out of the camp. Then he came to Lu Junyi, who was surrounded by a group of soldiers. He knelt on the ground and worshiped: "The little man Fang Dangjun pays homage to General Lu."
Lu Junyi nodded and said: "I, Daliang, are not in the mood to kneel down and worship, so you can get up. The Fangdang tribe was the first to submit to me, Daliang, and attacked the Renli camp at night. I will ask the court for credit for you."
Hearing this, Fang Dangjun was overjoyed and said, "Thank you, General."
Fang Dangjun thanked Lu Junyi and then got up. When he looked at Lu Junyi secretly, he saw a soldier lying behind Lu Junyi. The armor on his body was the one he had given to the banquet in the evening. He couldn't help but tilt his head to look at it.
Lu Junyi also saw Fang Dangjun¡¯s gaze and asked, ¡°Do you know him?¡±
Fang Dangjun said: "It looks a bit like Renli, but I can't see his appearance clearly, so I'm not sure."
Renli was captured alive by Lu Junyi and knocked unconscious. Lu Junyi's soldiers heard this and hurriedly picked up Renli's head and asked Fang Dangjun to identify it.
"He is King Shu of Xixia, Renli."
When Yan Qing heard that Renli was the first general captured by Lu Junyi, he couldn't help but cupped his hands and said, "Congratulations, master, for this great achievement."
Lu Junyi smiled and said: "He's just a kid with a dirty mouth. He doesn't even have the courage to fight me. There's no need to brag about catching him."
Yan Qing said with a smile: "This guy escaped from the prince with his troops. Catching him must be a great achievement. Besides, there are tens of thousands of horses in the camp. This night attack can be considered a great success."
When Renli withdrew his troops from Xingqing Mansion, he captured all the war horses from Jingzhou and Lingzhou.
