Qin Mu led his army to spy on the periphery, waiting for the opportunity. When Su Jin came to harass in the first half of the night, the enemy camp was brightly lit. As soon as Su Jin was silent for a while, the enemy camp became dark. This abnormal situation made Qin Mu cautious, and sending Cui Feng to attack the South Camp could be said to be a test.

Sure enough, as soon as Cui Feng's troops approached the South Camp, they were ambushed, and the sneak attack actually turned into a violent attack.

Cui Feng was a good one. He responded in time and forced his 300 men to disperse and use the cover of night to quickly rush to the enemy's wall.

After suffering more than twenty casualties, the simple village gate was blown away. Cui Feng was the first to rush into the enemy camp, slashing with his sword. He was as fierce as a tiger and his roar was like thunder. He knocked down several rebels who blocked his way in one encounter. His momentum was unstoppable.

The efficacy of pine needle water was fully demonstrated at this moment. Most of the rebels suffered from night blindness and could not see anything in the dark night, but Cui Feng's side could clearly see the body outlines of the rebels because they often drank pine needle water.

This is like two snipers in later generations, one equipped with a thermal imager and the other can only rely on naked eye observation. Fighting in the dark, there would not be much suspense about the outcome.

After the gate was blown away, the rebels could only hastily light torches, and those holding torches became the most obvious targets. Bang! Bang! The sound of bowstrings continued, and Cui Feng's men were like wolves in the night, constantly hunting the rebels with torches. Every shot was accurate, and many rebels were so scared that they threw away their torches to avoid becoming targets.

In the dim night, only strips of white silk were seen rushing into the enemy camp, with screams coming one after another.

Cui Feng had just lost more than 20 of his men, and he was furious. He wielded a steel knife like a flying sword, and anyone who blocked his path was slain. "Kill!" He shouted, his arms full of strength. He slashed through the abdomen of a rebel, and the rebel was cut into two pieces. The upper body was carried several feet away by the force of the knife, and another rebel was knocked to the ground, with his intestines and lungs spilling all over the ground.

Two spears stabbed at him. Cui Feng stepped back with his right foot and slashed with his sword. The two spears were cut off. His two men rushed forward in tacit understanding and chopped off two heads cleanly with one sword each. Occasionally, the firelight flashed, and heads were seen rolling, blood was flying, and the ground was full of broken limbs... ... ... ... ... ..

Amid the fierce fighting of Cui Feng and others, a bunch of red fireworks suddenly rose into the sky, looking particularly gorgeous in the night sky.

When the sound of killing came from the small camp in the south, all the troops in Zhang Qizai's central camp had already stood up and prepared for battle. At this moment, the camp was already brightly lit, and all the rebels were dressed in uniform. When he saw the signal of red fireworks rising in front of him, Zhang Qizai did not dare to neglect it and immediately sent a thousand troops to reinforce as agreed.

Qin Mu also saw the fireworks, and he sent Ning Yuan with fifty people to Wanzai as an insider. The plan was also to use fireworks as a signal, so when he saw the fireworks rising into the sky from the rebels' southern camp, and the rebels' central camp quickly sent out reinforcements, he immediately came up with a plan.

He hurriedly ordered the messenger, "Go quickly. Ask Huo Sheng to reinforce Cui Feng and take down the enemy camp in the south as soon as possible. Ask Liu Meng and Ling Zhan to join forces. Immediately launch a strong attack on the small camp in the north and try to break it down as soon as possible. Also, order two squads of soldiers to launch feint attacks on the two small camps in the east and west respectively. Don't try to break into the camp, just rush to the enemy camp and set off fireworks to lure the rebels out of the central army camp. Go quickly."

"Yes, sir."

Qin Mu had originally planned to use the wolf pack tactics tonight, with Cui Feng, Huo Sheng, Ling Zhan, and Liu Meng each leading 300 men and horses to attack the four small camps on the periphery. He and Meng Ke led a thousand men and horses to hide on the side, waiting to launch a fatal attack.

After seeing the rebels using fireworks to call for help, he immediately adjusted the battle plan, asking Huo Sheng and Cui Feng to join forces to attack the small camp in the south, and Liu Meng and Ling Zhan to join forces to attack the small camp in the north. At the same time, he used fireworks to lead the rebel forces to the east and west.

As soon as his order was conveyed, Liu Meng, Huo Sheng and Ling Zhan immediately took action and launched a fierce attack on the two small rebel camps in the south and the north respectively.

Although the sneak attack has now turned into a strong attack, one side is exhausted while the other side is conserving its strength. One side has night blindness while the other side does not. In addition, with the advantage in military strength, even if the rebels have been prepared, Qin Gong believes that Liu Meng and his men will be able to quickly capture the small camps on the north and south sides.

The small camp in the north encountered a fierce attack from Liu Meng and Ling Zhan. They were still hesitating whether to set off fireworks to call for help immediately, but they saw red fireworks rising from the small camps in the east and west, emitting brilliant lights in the sky.

Zhang Qi had just sent a thousand men to reinforce the small camp in the south, but soon the other three camps also heard shouts and drums. In addition, the small camps in the east and west successively raised fireworks to ask for help, which made Zhang Qi a little overwhelmed.

He still has 4,000 troops in his central camp. If he sends another 1,000 to each of the small camps in the east and west, there will only be 2,000 troops left in the central camp. If the north also asks for help, the troops in the central camp will be drained, which is undoubtedly a very dangerous thing.

But the small camps on the periphery must be rescued. If reinforcements are not sent quickly as agreed, the morale of the small camps on the periphery will surely be completely lost. Once a breakthrough is made in one direction, it will inevitably cause a chain reaction, and the camps in other directions will also follow suit. This avalanche will inevitably affect the central army camp, and by then the central army camp will probably collapse even without the government troops attacking.

Zhang Qi was worried. It was dark at night and the enemy situation was unclear. He had no idea which direction was Qin Mu's main attack direction. Now rescue signals came from three directions. He had no choice but to send a thousand troops to the east and west for reinforcement.

From the hillside where Qin Mu was, he could clearly see three fire dragons rushing out from the rebel army's central camp one after another, heading south, east and west respectively. Seeing that Zhang Qi had fallen into the trap and really sent reinforcements to the east and west, Qin Mu was secretly delighted.

Under the fierce attack of Liu Meng and Ling Zhan, the camp in the north soon raised fireworks asking for help. Now Zhang Qi was really hesitant.

Didn't Qin Mu only have 2,000 troops? If the 2,000 troops were divided into four groups, each group would only have 500 troops. How could he force four groups to send out distress signals so quickly when he was well prepared

This matter made Zhang Qi feel very strange. He decided not to send reinforcements to the north first, but to send scouts to check the situation on the spot. If Qin Mu really divided his troops into four groups, the two thousand troops in his camp would attack one group at a time and defeat them one by one.

Qin Mu was too lazy to care whether Zhang Qi would send reinforcements to the north.

He jumped up and shouted to the thousand men behind him: "Brothers, follow me and destroy the rebels in the south first. Charge!"

A thousand men and horses immediately rushed towards the camp in the south like a tiger descending from a mountain. At this time, the camp in the south had collapsed under the fierce attack of Huo Sheng and Cui Feng, and the remaining two or three hundred rebels were desperately fleeing towards the central army camp.

Mo Qingniu, who came to reinforce, saw the defeated soldiers of the South Camp rushing towards him. If his 1,000 men were thrown into disarray, the consequences would be disastrous. He was so anxious that he shouted angrily: "Escape to both sides, escape to both sides, don't charge, don't charge..."

Two or three hundred defeated soldiers were being chased by Cui Feng and his men, with screams everywhere. Who would listen to what Mo Qingniu was shouting? Seeing that Mo Qingniu's thousand troops had formed a battle formation in front, they just wanted to rush into their own formation. Perhaps only in this way could these frightened birds find a sense of security.

"Shoot! Shoot!" Mo Qingniu was so furious that he didn't care about anything else. He ordered a thousand of his men to open their bows and shoot at the same time. The fleeing rebels from the South Camp did not die at the hands of Cui Feng and his men, but fell to the ground one after another in the rain of arrows. The sound of arrows entering the flesh was particularly clear in the night. After paying hundreds of lives, the fleeing rebels fled to both sides.

Huo Sheng and Cui Feng, who were chasing closely behind the fleeing soldiers, didn't think twice and followed the fleeing soldiers from the South Camp into the night on both sides.

Mo Qingniu was dumbfounded. Although they had torches, they could not see clearly when standing under the torches and looking into the darkness. The defeated soldiers were frightened by the rain of arrows and fled to both sides, but the enemy was gone. It was pitch black in front of them, and there was nothing except hundreds of defeated soldiers who were shot and fell to the ground by them.

He had just reacted when Cui Feng and Huo Sheng came charging at him from both sides in the darkness. First, a volley of powerful arrows shot out from the darkness. The rebels on the left and right wings had not yet figured out what was going on when the powerful arrows had already shot into their bodies. They fell to the ground with screams, and their formation became scattered.

"kill!"

Huo Sheng and Cui Feng, two brave generals, led the charge and charged into the enemy camp. The hasty resistance of the rebels was like thin ice under the scorching sun, and it quickly collapsed.

Huo Sheng held a knife in one hand and a horsewhip in the other. He chopped down a rebel with the knife. At the same time, the horsewhip flew out and wrapped around the neck of another rebel, pulling him over. The knife swept across the rebel's throat, and blood gushed out from the broken throat. The sound of "ho ho" came out.

The hundreds of elite troops behind him rushed out from the darkness of the night like vicious wolves and charged into the enemy's formation without hesitation.

"Hold on, hold on, quickly, support both wings!" Mo Qingniu shouted loudly, but it was so difficult to command a large army at night. Few soldiers could hear his voice, and even if they heard it, they might not execute it. At this moment, they were almost under a surprise attack. They could not see how many officers and soldiers were coming to kill them, and their courage was almost lost.

Just at this moment, in the darkness ahead, Qin Mu arrived in time with a thousand troops. This would undoubtedly be the final straw that broke the camel's back for the thousand rebels.
