Chapter 505 Sneak Attack on the Left Army
In the middle of the night, the entire Zuozhen camp was silent, except for a few security guards patrolling along the river bank with torches, most of the people were already sound asleep, and snoring sounded from time to time in the tent.

At this time, the oil lamp was still burning in Li Guoying's tent, and she hadn't fallen asleep yet.

Now that the imperial envoy has just arrived, it is a critical moment to negotiate with Gao Jingzhong, and he is still very vigilant.

At this moment, Li Guoying knew that the Zuo army must not make any troubles, and he could breathe a sigh of relief only when Gao Jingzhong agreed to the court's mediation.

Li Guoying rubbed the bridge of her nose, put down a letter written by Zuo Liangyu, then got up to leave the tent, moved her body, and stretched.

The conflict with Gao Jingzhong this time gave Li Guoying a lot of emotions. He couldn't help but look at the torch-lit Wei Wu army camp on the other side, and sighed in his heart.

Alas, Gao Jingzhong, a native rich man from Henan, is as good as he is today, while Zuo Zhen is still the same, even worse than before.

It has to be admitted that Gao Jingzhong has become powerful, both Zuo Zhen and the imperial court all look up to him.

In terms of blackmailing the court, Gao Jingzhong may be better than Zuo Zhen, and I don't know what conditions the imperial envoy can negotiate.

Li Guoying sighed, and made up his mind that no matter what the outcome of the negotiation, after this incident, he would persuade Commander Zuo that Zuo Zhen should also strive to be strong and not be like before, otherwise his official career would be ruined. And Zuo Zhen's future has reached its peak, and it's time to go downhill.

It is also a good thing to learn such a lesson this time and realize the gap with Gao Jingzhong.

Li Guoying looked up at the sky, thought for a while, then suddenly yawned, and confronted Gao Jingzhong, which made him a little tired.

At this time, he glanced at the opposite bank again, then turned around and entered the tent, and soon fell asleep on the bed, snoring intermittently from his nose.

On the fourth watch, when people were deep in sleep, the snoring sounded in the tent, and the soldiers patrolling outside the tent also found a place to lie down, resting for a while with their weapons in their hands. Both sides of the Jinshui River fell into silence. The flames of the bonfire and torches were burning, and they made a "poof" sound under the blowing of the river wind.

At this time, on the west bank of the Jinshui River shrouded in night, a large number of Wei Wu army soldiers in black armor gathered on the bank, and nearly ten thousand horses merged into the night.

On the river, there was a sound of paddling, and several small boats with some ropes rowed to the opposite bank first. Nearly a hundred left soldiers with white cloth wrapped around their arms stepped forward to respond immediately, and took the ropes from the boats. , dragged on the shore, stretched straight, and then fixed on the stones and big trees on the shore.

The boats set off one after another on the river, and were fixed by ropes to form a line. The soldiers were busy laying planks on the boats and driving wooden stakes into the river. Soon, three pontoon bridges appeared on the Jinshui River.

Xu Heihu rode on the horse and raised the battle ax with one stroke. Behind him, the horse army led the horse and flocked to the pontoon bridge like a school of black fish.

With a wave of Wang Deren's hand, a large number of soldiers sitting on the bank also stood up one after another. No one spoke, and quietly lined up on the bridge.

Nearly [-] people, the striker has already reached the other side, and there are still many people here, who have just stepped on the pontoon bridge.

On the east bank of the Jinshui River, Ma Jinzhong led nearly a thousand troops and stood on the bank. When he saw a large group of people crossing the river, he rushed to meet them.

At this moment, Xu Heihu and Wang Deren also saw the escorting men and horses, and when they saw a general coming on foot, they also came over.

"The two generals are called this way. A certain is Ma Jinzhong, who is in charge of supporting the two." Ma Jinzhong clasped his fists together, and then said: "There is a certain defense area near the pontoon bridge, and they are all controlled by certain."

Xu Heihu and Wang Deren clasped their hands together, announced their names, and then said no nonsense, Xu Heihu said, "General Ma, where is the main camp of that Guisun Li Guoying, the king is the first to capture the thief, and I will go directly to the camp of the Guisun, and the other Zuozhen soldiers and horses, I leave it to you!"

After all, it is impossible to kill more than [-] people. The best way is to take down the main camp of Zuo Town. Once the main camp collapses, the other native chickens and dogs will naturally rush to escape first.

Ma Jinzhong's spirit was shaken, looking at his aura, he was so coaxing, he was going straight to Li Guoying's main camp as soon as he came up, and he didn't pay attention to Zuo Zhen at all.

Thinking that he might be so tyrannical in the future, Ma Jinzhong betrayed Li Guoying without hesitation, and his voice turned into a Henan accent, "General Xu, Guisun is just to the south. From here, go seven miles and see a big banner in the camp. That's it."

Xu Heihu immediately got on his horse and swung his axe, "Follow me!"

After he finished speaking, as soon as he clamped the horse's belly, more than 3000 horsemen mounted their horses one after another, followed closely behind, and rushed directly to Li Guoying's camp.

Ma Jinzhong watched the cavalry roaring past, and was even more surprised, but at this moment Wang Deren patted his shoulder, "General Ma, let's start too!"

Hearing the words, Ma Jinzhong felt a little excited in his heart, and immediately turned his head and said: "Pass down the order and let the brothers do it."

All of a sudden, on the west bank of the Jinshui River, soldiers with weapons in one hand and torches in the other haunted the camp, setting fires everywhere, attacking the surrounding camps, and shouting loudly, "Wei Wujun crossed the river, the left army was defeated!"

After a while, the fire raged, and the Zuojun barracks on the east bank of Jinshui was burnt red.

On the watchtower on the west bank, Gao Yihuan looked down at the entire east bank with condescending eyes, and had a panoramic view of the Zuojun camp.He saw the flames on the east bank rising to the sky, the sound of killing went straight up to the sky, the scene was extremely grand, as if he was in the Red Cliff battlefield, or like a burning camp in Yiling, he couldn't help but feel agitated.

At this moment, Gao Yihuan really wanted to compose a poem to express his pride, but his level was limited, so he held back for a while, and finally had no choice but to give up, clapping the pillars on the fence and applauding, "Okay, I am Wei Wujun, I am truly unparalleled in the world. "

The imperial envoy on the side saw the scene on the east bank, but he was already disheartened and had the intention of compromising.

The left army on the other side is estimated to be finished, and when Gao Jingzhong defeats Li Guoying, the army can directly reach the city of Wuchang.If Wuchang also falls into the hands of Gao Jingzhong, then Nanjing will have to rely on him.

Wang Yan finally couldn't hold his breath, and said: "Duke, after this battle, Zuo Liangyu's strength has been greatly damaged, the Duke should be satisfied! Wuchang is the bottom line of the imperial court, if the Duke dares to touch it, the imperial court will transfer it to Yasukuni. Duke, and with the support of Jiang Shuishi, the Duke has completely broken with the court. Duke must think clearly!"

At this time, he can only show his hole card. In short, Wuchang is related to the safety of Nanjing.Since the beginning of Soochow, Wuchang has not been lost, and Jinling can still be safe. For the southeast, Wuchang is of great importance, and it cannot be lost.If Gao Jingzhong insisted on taking Wuchang, then there would be nothing to talk about.

Gao Yihuan was looking at the other side. Hearing the imperial envoy's voice, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, he had thrown the bottom line and left the decision to himself.

Gao Yihuan pondered for a while, then turned around, and said with a smile: "It's not impossible to let Zuo Liangyu go without fighting Wuchang, but the court has to solve my problem."

On the east bank, Wei Wujun's horses stepped on the company's battalion, and there were internal disturbances. All the battalions of the left army were full of flames and killing sounds.

The flames soaring into the sky made the eastern sky red, shining on Gao Yihuan and Wang Yan flickeringly.

In Li Guoying's main battalion, the vigilant soldiers knew something was wrong when they saw the flames and heard the shouts of killing.

Soon, there was a roar of horseshoes, and a large group of cavalry had already galloped over.

At this time, the soldiers rushed to report to Li Guoying, the general of Zuozhen, who suddenly lost his mind, sat up from the bed, and at the same time urgently ordered the soldiers to not let the enemy soldiers rush into the camp no matter what, and to kill anyone who dared to approach the camp. Both the enemy and ourselves are shot to death.
