What Lifei Shouyu meant was that before the surprise attack, they needed to know the specific situation of the enemy's camp. Only then could they be fully prepared, so that after the warriors broke into the enemy's camp, they would be able to carry out a more effective operation. 8

Naturally, Ang Lee had the same idea. He nodded and looked at Erniu, "It's already dark. Erniu, take a few brothers and scout ahead. Remember, you have to be discreet. Don't let the enemy discover you."
"Don't worry, Erniu knows what to do."
Erniu confidently accepted the mission.
After that, Zhang Erniu and a few of his brothers quietly left the south gate of Anbian City and ran toward the Fan Army camp five miles away.
In a few hours, they would be attacking the enemy's camp. Ang Lee was both excited and nervous. He had great confidence in this attack. If it succeeded, he would be rewarded greatly. When he met Wang Zhongsi, he would be confident that he would not be looked down upon.
However, the difference in strength between the two sides was too great. If the attack failed, the entire army would be wiped out. Ang Lee felt that he would not be able to bear the consequences, so he could not help but feel nervous.
"Big Brother, it's getting late. Let's rest."
Ang Lee shook his head, "I'm not sleepy. You guys rest first."
"Big Brother, you look a little nervous. What's wrong? Are you not confident?"
Ang Lee smiled and looked at the two, "Of course Big Brother is nervous. Do you think the enemy is made of paper? It would be troublesome if an accident happened. Big Brother is staking everything on this attack. Big Brother really can't afford to lose."
Previously, he had scared off tens of thousands of elite soldiers and saved Zhang Qiqiu. Then, he had lured the enemy out twice to wipe out all the enemy spies that had infiltrated Anbian City.
These two contributions were not small. However, it was not a great achievement. After all, the number of enemies killed was very small. It was not enough to cause a huge commotion.
But this assault on the Tibetan army was different. The enemy far outnumbered him. As long as the assault succeeded and the Tibetan army was completely routed, Li An's achievements and reputation would be greatly enhanced. In fact, his achievements would even be widely praised in the Great Tang army. Okay.
.
For the sake of this reputation, Ang Lee had to be very careful. He had to carefully consider the possible accidents that might happen during the attack. He also had to come up with a lot of emergency measures in advance.
Kun Xiong and Fei Yu looked at each other. They each found a pillar and leaned against it to rest.
They knew that other than fighting, they really couldn't help their big brother in terms of strategy. Rather than that, they might as well rest for a while. This way, they would have more strength and energy for the upcoming surprise attack.
###
Five miles away from the South Gate of Anbian City, Li Tianlong was drinking wine with his subordinates. The snow outside was very thick. This made it impossible for him to attack Anbian City. At the same time, he also believed that the Hengye Army would not dare to come out. Therefore, he drank with his subordinates to vent the depression in his heart.
After drinking a few jars of wine, Li Tianlong's cheeks turned red. Several of his subordinates were also a little drunk.
Li Tianlong narrowed his eyes and looked at his subordinates. He said loudly: "If it wasn't for the heavy snow last night, our army would have already breached the city. Bang!"
After he finished speaking, he smashed the jar of wine in his hand on the ground. This scared the subordinates.
"General, you are very brave. If the Hengye Army dares to come out, we will make sure they die without a burial ground." One of the subordinates said with a hint of drunkenness.
Li Tianlong liked the feeling of being complimented. He grinned and said with disdain: "The Hengye Army, they only have so few people. They definitely won't dare to come out. And that Guo Ziyi, he looks like he has some skills. If he dares to come out, I will definitely crush him under my feet. Hahaha!"
With five thousand soldiers in his hand, Li Tianlong obviously did not put Guo Ziyi in his eyes. Of course, he would not care about a nobody like Ang Lee. He had not even heard of Ang Lee's name.
"General, you are very brave. How can Guo Ziyi be your opponent? Let him stay in Anbian City and be a coward. Let's continue drinking."
"Continue drinking, continue drinking."
Li Tianlong's cheeks trembled even more. > _ _ _ 8 _ _.
While the generals were drinking to their heart's content, the soldiers under them were naturally not idle either. After the siege the day before, many of them were injured. Those who were not injured were also full of pent-up anger. If they did not drink to their heart's content at this time, they would naturally feel uncomfortable in their hearts. Moreover, the generals had already set an example, so there was nothing for them to worry about.
The Hengye Army's camp was filled with loud drinking. This made Erniu, who was in charge of scouting the enemy, pleasantly surprised. With such a situation, their night attack would be much smoother.
After a detailed investigation, Erniu led a few of his brothers back to Anbian City's south gate.
Ang Lee sat cross-legged for two hours. When he opened his eyes, Erniu was already standing beside him with a face full of joy.
"How was it, Erniu? Tell me about the situation in the Hengye Army's camp."
Ang Lee placed too much importance on this ambush and hurriedly asked.
Erniu's face was full of joy as he reported: "The Hengye Army only has five thousand soldiers. The other five thousand left during the day and headed southwest. In addition, the Hengye Army's camp is filled with the sound of drinking and merrymaking. There are no signs of preparation at all. It seems like they don't care about us at all."
"Good, this is great. The Hengye Army's forces have been halved and they are not prepared. This is the Heavens helping me succeed. What else do I have to worry about?"
After listening to Erniu's report, Ang Lee was pleasantly surprised.
An hour later, in the direction of the south gate of An Bian City, Li An, the White Wolf Bandits, and the three hundred warriors were ready to attack at any time. Guo Ziyi had gathered nearly a thousand troops and was also ready to reinforce at any time.
Ang Lee, Kun Xiong, and Fei Yu each had six short spears on their backs. Guo Ziyi was wearing Mingguang Armor and looked like a great general. Just as they were about to set out, Hengye Army's Zhang Qiqiu arrived at the south gate.
"General."
Guo Ziyi saluted Zhang Qiqiu out of habit.
Zhang Qiqiu nodded slightly and looked at Ang Lee and the others. He said seriously: "General Guo has already told me the details of this operation. I believe that you will be able to destroy the Hengye Army's camp and avenge the people of the Tang Dynasty. I will be here waiting for you to come back victorious."
"Thank you for your trust, General. Ang Lee will not disappoint and destroy the Hengye Army's camp in one fell swoop."
Ang Lee represented his brothers and expressed their determination loudly.
Zhang Qiqiu nodded and ordered: "Li Shaolang, let's go."
"Yes, General."
Ang Lee accepted the order and led Kun Xiong, Fei Yu, Lifei Shouyu, and the White Wolf Bandits out of the south gate. The three hundred trained warriors followed closely behind.
Everyone quickly put on their skis and spread out in formation. They ran towards the Hengye Army's camp in the south.
The terrain outside the south gate was sloped at an angle of 30 degrees. Because of this, Ang Lee and the others ran faster and faster. Soon, they disappeared from Zhang Qiqiu's sight.
Zhang Qiqiu looked at Guo Ziyi and said: "General Guo, this Li Shaolang is really a rare talent. He will be a great general of the Tang Dynasty in the future."
"General is right. I also think so. However, Li Shaolang is still too young. He needs more experience."
Guo Ziyi was already over forty years old. He knew that to be a general of the Tang Dynasty, talent was not enough. There were many things to learn.
Zhang Qiqiu also felt the same. He nodded and said: "General Guo, lead the main force to reinforce them."
"Yes, General."
Guo Ziyi accepted the order and led less than a thousand men to the Hengye Army's camp.
Ang Lee skillfully operated the skis and made them slide faster and faster. Kun Xiong, Fei Yu, and the White Wolf Bandits were also very familiar with the operation. The three hundred warriors were in a slightly worse situation. However, few of them fell and could barely keep up.
"The first one to rush into the Hengye Army's camp will get the first merit. Brothers, let's work harder."
Li An roared. His arms constantly adjusted their positions to make the skis slide forward faster and more steadily.
Kun Xiong, Fei Yu, and Lifei Shouyu were not to be outdone. They all sped up to get the first merit.
A large number of black dots were running towards the Hengye Army's camp at an incredible speed. The Hengye Army soldiers who were in charge of sentry duty were completely dumbfounded. They could feel that it was the Tang Dynasty army that was running towards them. But how could the Tang Dynasty army be so fast? What was going on?
"The Tang Dynasty army is ambushing us! The Tang Dynasty army is ambushing us! Quick, sound the alarm!"
A sentry shouted, and struck the gong.
Dong! Dong! Dong!
Dong! A large number of gongs sounded in the Hengye Army's camp.
The Hengye Army soldiers who were sleeping were very annoyed by the ear-piercing sound of the gongs. Just as they were about to curse, they were shocked to find that the Tang Dynasty army had already rushed into their camp.
That's right. Ang Lee and his men were very fast. Not long after the sentry sounded the alarm, they rushed into the Hengye Army's camp and killed the sentry who did not have time to prepare.
According to the plan, after everyone rushed into the Hengye Army's camp, they immediately threw away the skis under their feet and scattered to kill the Hengye Army's camp.
"Kill!"
The three hundred warriors scattered and rushed into the Hengye Army's camp. They threw the two short spears in their hands and killed the Hengye Army soldiers who did not have time to put on their armor.
After throwing the short spears in their hands, the warriors picked up their weapons and mercilessly slaughtered the Hengye Army soldiers who were not prepared at all.
"Warriors, attack with all your might! Don't take any prisoners!"
Ang Lee, who was in high spirits, waved his spear and wantonly took the lives of the Hengye Army soldiers as he shouted loudly.
"Kill!"
The three hundred warriors who had been suppressing their anger suddenly became more energetic. They even set fire to the Hengye Army's camp, burning the Hengye Army soldiers who were hiding inside to death.
