Chapter 495: Confrontation in the Night
As night fell, the sky gradually darkened. **Soak! Book. Bar*
Xinfeng City, shrouded in night, became hazy and blurred.
"Chirp! Chirp! ”
Outside the city, in the woods on both sides of the official road, two birdsong sounded on the ground. The crisp and melodious sound is very abrupt in the silent night sky, revealing a strange atmosphere. Time gradually passed, and in the hazy night, the entire Xinfeng City became distorted, making people unreal, as if they were in a dream, as if they were real and illusory.
In the end, the entire Xinfeng City disappeared into darkness, like a giant beast hidden in the shadows.
"Crunch!"
The gates of the city, which were wide and tall, opened with a bang.
"Step! Trample! ……”
After the city gate was opened, the sound of hurried and messy footsteps continued to sound.
Inside and outside the city, torches crackled and burned in the night sky, and the flames soared into the sky, reflecting the soldiers inside and outside the city.
The messy pace continued for a long time before it stopped. All the soldiers gathered outside the city, and the two at the front were Duan Xuan and Xu Rong. Both of them are wearing armor, hanging swords at their waists, riding on war horses, majestic, and their eyes reveal the breathtaking momentum they have after fighting on the battlefield, which is very fierce, so that the soldiers around them dare not face it.
"Let's go!"
Duan Xuan pulled out the war knife on his waist with a sonorous sound, slashed it in the air, and immediately shouted: "Target, go straight to the rebel camp." After finishing speaking, Duan Xuan knocked his legs on the horse's belly and galloped out.
He took the lead and rushed out first. Immediately following Duan Xuan, Xu Rong also rode out on horseback and rushed out after Duan Xuan. Behind the two of them, more than 10,000 Xiliang soldiers spread their footsteps, quickly followed Duan Xuan and Xu Rong, and rushed into the distance with a bang. More than 10,000 people ran fast, and the momentum soared into the sky, like a fierce tiger, and it was extremely scary.
The army was gone, and the gates creaked shut.
On the city tower, more than a dozen soldiers patrolled back and forth, and there was no nervous expression on their faces.
When Duan Xuan led the troops to set off, there was a sound of rustling in the dense forest far outside the city, and several scouts lurking in the dark saw the sky-high firelight and the torches in the sky, and their eyes showed a touch of joy, and quickly disappeared into the dense forest. These soldiers were the scouts sent by Fan Chou.
The army kept hurrying, and Xu Rong glanced around the mountains and forests outside the city, and a smile curled up at the corner of his mouth.
He and Duan Xuan led a large army into the county seat, and they were not allowed to enter or leave, so as to ensure that there were no spies in the city. Even if there were spies in the city, they couldn't get the word out. Therefore, Xu Rong could be sure that there must be spies sent by Fan Chou outside the city, and he and Duan Xuan led the troops into battle, and these spies who were investigating the news would return to the camp after learning the news.
In this way, his troubles were removed.
About a quarter of an hour later, Xu Rong sent a team of cavalry to clean up the spies on the road ahead, ensuring that no spies could find out the news of him and Duan Xuan's army.
Half an hour later, the soldiers led by Duan Xuan and Xu Rong extinguished their torches.
Among them, Duan Xuan led more than 2,000 soldiers and continued to advance.
Xu Rong assured that there were no spies around, and disappeared into the night with more than 7,000 soldiers. The soldiers did not use torches on their way, but quietly returned in the direction of Xinfeng City in the dark night.
Along the way, because Xu Rong had already cleaned up the spies, the news would not be leaked at all.
As for Duan Xuan, he led the soldiers to continue to advance with great fanfare, even if there were no torches, he could still attract the spies sent by Fan Chou to inquire about the news along the road.
At this point, Xu Rong quietly returned without attracting any attention.
Duan Xuan knew the situation, there was no worry on his face, and he continued to move forward.
For him, he chose an easy and non-dangerous mission, and he only needed to feign an attack on Fan Chou's camp to complete the task without facing any danger. The army hurried and spent more than an hour approaching Fan Chou's camp and stopped.
From a distance, the camp was silent.
The fire shone brightly, illuminating the camp red.
Inside the camp, soldiers are patrolling back and forth.
In fact, the task of simmering at this time has been completed. Because what he had to do was to pretend to attack Fan Chou's camp, covering the more than 7,000 soldiers led by Xu Rong to quietly return to Xinfeng City, so that Fan Chou and others still thought that Xinfeng City was an empty city, and there were not many soldiers guarding it, so that Fan Chou led the Xiliang army to easily capture the city and be ambushed by Xu Rong.
Duan Xuan looked at the quiet and empty camp, his eyes were bright, revealing a thief's eyes. He stared at the camp carefully, wondering if he should take it.
Take the camp and you can do a great job.
Turned around and returned to Xinfeng City, without any credit.
Therefore, Duan Xuan kept thinking about it in his heart.
Judging from the current situation, it is likely that the army of the camp has already gone to Xinfeng City, and there is only one empty camp left, and this is his opportunity. Duan Xuan gritted his teeth and beckoned behind him, and suddenly a junior colonel ran to Duan Xuan's side, lowered his voice and said, "General, what are your orders?" ”
Duan Xuan ordered: "Blow the horn and test how many people are still in the camp?" ”
"No!"
The little colonel replied and immediately went to get ready.
Duan Xuan turned his head and continued to stare at the fire-lit camp, his face showing a fierce look.
Although he set his mind on attacking the camp, he still let the soldiers blow the horn to test it. If the horn sounded, countless soldiers in the camp immediately gathered, proving that Fan Chou did not send troops to leave, and he immediately led the troops back; If, after the trumpet was blown, there was no movement in the camp, and no soldiers came out to assemble, he drove straight into and took Fan Chou's camp.
"Woo! Woo! ……”
Suddenly, a whining horn sounded behind him.
The voice was high-pitched and impassioned, breaking the silence of the night sky, and reverberating in the silent night sky without stopping.
The sound of the horn entered the camp, but there was a strange scene. The sudden sound did not startle the soldiers patrolling the camp, who continued their patrol as if they had not heard the sound outside the camp. Moreover, there were no soldiers rushing out of the camp, as if there were only a few dozen patrolling soldiers in the camp.
Seeing this, Duan Xuan's heart suddenly burst out, and he even showed a happy expression.
It was clear that there were no soldiers left in the battalion.
With a gesture of his hand, he was about to call the junior colonel behind him, ready to give the order to attack.
"Boom! Rumble! ……”
Just as Duan Xuan was about to give the order, countless torches suddenly lit up in the place where he led the troops to hide, and the torches burned and crackled, and one after another stood in the night sky, illuminating the dark night sky clearly. Countless Xiliang soldiers came out, holding torches in their left hands and war knives in their right hands, looking at the soldiers who were stunned with fright, with a hideous look on their faces.
Duan Xuan's eyes widened, looking at the red fire around him, and the strong light pierced his eyes. It was half a sound before Duan Xuan reacted.
However, the look of joy in his eyes had changed, replaced by fear.
Hit the trick!
At this moment, Duan Xuan's heart was in turmoil. He looked at the countless enemy troops around him and didn't know what to do. In this feigned attack, he only brought more than 2,000 soldiers, and these 2,000 soldiers were for drama, not elite soldiers.
Now suddenly surrounded, it must be difficult to resist.
A flash of light suddenly flashed in Duan Xuan's mind, and a look of remorse appeared on his face.
He and Xu Rong both expected that Fan Chou would lead the troops to attack Xinfeng County, which was really a bit abrupt. Li Ru and Jia Xu are both wise men, they should be extremely powerful, and what they can think of, Li Ru and Jia Xu can also think of.
Obviously, Li Ru and Xu Rong both have a back-up move.
And the more than 2,000 soldiers he led became the prey of Li Ru's trap.
"Retreat, retreat!"
Duan Xuan knew that after the ambush, he had no intention of resisting at all, and directly ordered to retreat. Especially when he thought that he had been ambushed, there were probably soldiers stationed in Fan Chou's camp, who were waiting for him, so he wanted to escape even more.
"Tricked, withdraw, withdraw!"
Duan Xuan took the lead in turning over his horse and retreating in the direction of the county seat.
"Traitor, where to go!"
In the night sky, a deep and loud voice sounded. In the red firelight, I saw a young general rushing out of the official road. This young man was about twenty-four or five years old, his face was like a knife, his sword eyebrows were sharp, his eyes were like electricity, and his whole person exuded a fierce feeling, like a sword out of the sheath, extremely sharp.
He was wearing a silver-white armor, a silver helmet, a sweaty and bloody horse on his hip, a tiger-headed golden gun in his hand, riding a horse and waving a spear, and rushing towards Duan Xuan like lightning.
It was too late, it was too late, but I saw a fiery red with a hint of silver-white light flashing on the official road, and the young general rushed to the front of Duan Xuan in the blink of an eye, only two zhang away from Duan Xuan.
The spear poked out like lightning, knocking the soldiers who were blocking the road to the ground.
The spear poked out, like an eagle striking the sky, extremely domineering. Any soldier who was stabbed with a spear or swept by a gun was seriously injured or even killed by a single shot.
"Whew!"
The tip of the gun flickered, and there was a sharp whistling sound, and it kept poking out.
In the blink of an eye, the young man came out with a bloody path and rushed towards Duan Xuan. The young man snorted, the tiger's head golden gun in his hand shook, and the tip of the spear suddenly turned into a little cold star, and the flickering silver-white light dots painted into a picture, as if a hundred birds were facing a phoenix, and ten thousand birds were singing in unison, revealing a fierce taste.
The golden spear struck out like lightning, and a terrifying momentum emanated from the golden spear, heading towards Duan Xuan.
Before the tip of the spear touched Duan Xuan, he already felt an extreme danger.
Escape!
Duan Xuan had only one thought in his heart, but the speed of the tiger head golden gun was very fast, and he didn't have time to turn the horse's head and run away. In a hurry, Duan Xuan jumped down, jumped directly from the war horse, and rolled on the ground for a few consecutive times before he got rid of the tiger-headed golden gun in the young man's hand.
"Whew! Oh! ”
Just as Duan Xuan turned over and jumped off the horse, the war horse under his crotch raised its head and neighed, with a poignant and unwilling roar in its high-pitched roar, and the situation was very tragic. Duan Xuan turned his head to look, only to see that the war horse's body was poked with several holes by the golden gun, and scarlet blood continued to gush out and fall to the ground, especially the war horse's neck, which was also pierced by the golden gun.
"Bang!"
There was a muffled sound, and the horse fell to the ground with a bang.
"Boom! Boom! ”
Duan Xuan swallowed several mouthfuls of saliva in a row, feeling a chill in his heart. Damn, this is a little monster that came out of nowhere, and with just one move, it directly killed his war horse and poked several holes. If he also stays on the war horse, I am afraid that he will be poked a few holes in the same fate as the war horse.
"Hmph, that's pretty fast."
With a playful smile on the young man's face, he smiled and said, "However, then, you don't have such good luck." As the young man spoke, his razor-like gaze swept around, and the soldiers who were about to rush up retreated, not daring to approach the young man.
Duan Xuan was terrified in his heart, propped his hands on the ground, and kept retreating.
He thought in his head, thinking about who the young man in front of him was. Suddenly, Duan Xuan thought of the identity of the young man in his mind, and suddenly shouted: "You are Zhang Ji's nephew, the Zhang Xiu who uses a spear?" ”
The young man laughed and said loudly: "Yes, a certain Zhang Xiu is also!" ”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Xiu shook the reins of the horse and shouted violently: "Duan Xuan, you betrayed the Taishi and surrendered to Wang Yun, damn it, you should kill!" It's also your luck that you can die at the hands of a certain family today, go and die! Zhang Xiu's sweaty BMW under his crotch was extremely psychic, and when Zhang Xiu's voice fell, he threw off his four hooves, galloped out directly, and rushed towards Duan Xuan.
"Whew!"
A high-pitched scream sounded, and the tiger-headed golden gun in Zhang Xiu's hand turned into a bolt of lightning and stabbed out.
