Chapter Seventy-Two: Night Raid 'Subscription is the Most Handsome'
Night Raid. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The Dead Soldiers' Battalion, which was good at night sneak attacks, was the pioneer, and took advantage of the dim moonlight to rush out from the west of Wuji City, quickly and quietly crossing the moat, and approaching the Black Mountain military camp tent not far away.
The Black Mountain army from Julu never thought that the defenders of the city would fight with them, and there were almost no defenses against this side of the city, only two wooden fences.
When Jiao Touch commanded the battalion of dead soldiers to repeat the old tactics of the night attack on the banks of the Gangshui River that were beheaded every night, Yan Bei escorted a large number of Yan Zhao warriors out of the city, and prepared to enter the battlefield at a distance from the enemy company camp.
In the end, Su Muyan supervised the Hu warriors to ride out on horseback, and divided into two teams from Ximen to the northwest and southwest, preparing to copy the enemy's retreat after the battle, chasing and slashing.
It was not that Yanbei sent Jiao Ji to send the dead battalion to death, but that his Yan Zhao warriors were all heavily armoured, and they would be discovered by the enemy's secret outpost before they got close, so that the advantage of the night attack would disappear completely, it was better to let the dead warrior battalion attack the camp first, and then the Yan Zhao warriors would charge the battle when they were in chaos, and then they could pull out the enemy camp in one battle.
In this battle, Yanbei didn't pay attention to the enemy camp outside the West Gate at all, and the real start of this battle was when the enemy camp outside the West Gate was uprooted, and the two camps outside the North and South Gates gathered troops to attack, which was the key to the night battle.
When the appointed time came, Yan Bei straddled the horse, and the thick back ring knife made by Wang Yi could press the tip of the knife to the ground in his hand, and looked at the camp in the distance with high eyes.
Jiao Touch held a large bow, the short-ring knife was stuck in the ground, twisted a wooden arrow, took a deep breath, and aimed at the black mountain sentry next to the torch on the two-zhang high watchtower, slowly opened the bow to the full, exhaled turbidity and released the bowstring.
Sou!
Jiao Touch's bow skills are not very good, this arrow has a distance of more than forty steps, he is not very sure in the night, immediately open the bow and be ready to make up for an arrow. Although the battalion of the dead who fought only in the dark had long been accustomed to the darkness of night fighting, the torch was like a beacon to guide him to shoot...... But these still do not make up for their lack of skill and experience.
He heard the sound of wind coming from the watchtower, the sound was strange and slight, and then the night guard slowly fell down with his throat clutched, and the other hand was still beating himself on the wooden railing, but he could not make a sound, and could only watch as more and more blood left more and more from his neck, and pain and exhaustion poured in like a tide.
At the same time, the archer beside him also fired an arrow, but it was not as good luck as him, and the tip of the nose of the night guard flew by a fraction of a second, and struck the wooden roof of the watchtower, and the frightened sentry, who did not know where the arrow was coming from, immediately leaned on the wooden fence and looked into the wilderness, and then saw a wooden arrow getting closer and closer to his cheek, and then the cluster of bronze arrows pierced the skull, pierced the hard frontal bone, and destroyed everything he had in the shortest possible time.
Jiao Touch's heart rose to his throat, and he held the longbow tightly for a few breaths, until he was sure that no one in the camp had noticed the attack, then he breathed a sigh of relief, glared at the young arc next to him, and then put the longbow on the ground, lifted his short-ring knife and double-arc shield, and raised his knife to the surrounding subordinates and whispered an order: "Take the fire arrow to occupy the watchtower and set it on fire, and the others move the wooden fence at the door and sneak into the camp." ”
They hadn't done anything about raiding camps at night, but they knew a lot about killing. The more men who lie in ambush in a fixed position without being detected by the enemy, the more favorable the situation will be when a battle breaks out.
More than a dozen archers carried arrows wrapped in cloth soaked in animal oil during the day to bypass the wooden fence at the camp gate and quickly climbed to the watchtowers on both sides, and several people worked together to pull open the wooden fence at the camp gate, and then the surrounding dead soldiers rushed into the camp one after another, ran lightly to the nearest camp tent, relying on them to cover themselves from being discovered by the black mountain eyes and ears of the camp patrol, and then rushed to the deeper position of the camp.
Jiao Touch stood outside the camp, watching his subordinates rush into the camp, a smile on his face...... That was enough, more than two hundred people had already infiltrated the camp, and the enemy had not yet discovered them, which meant that perhaps more people would be able to infiltrate the camp. Thinking of the sight of the Black Mountain thieves who had plagued their hometown running out of their tents in a panic and being hacked to death by them, how could Jiao Touch not laugh?
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion from the Black Mountain camp, which lifted the hearts of Jiao.
The subordinates have been discovered!
That's not right...... How did this voice come from the west?
Then Jiao Zhi's expression froze, it was not his subordinates who were discovered, but the reinforcements formed by the village warriors outside the city began to attack the camp!
What guts! General Yan's side has not yet started attacking the camp, and Xiang Yong is the first to fight with the Montenegrin army!
"Rush in!"
Since it was already chaotic, there was no need to worry about being discovered, Jiao Touch immediately struck the shield with a knife, making a dull sound, and raised his knife and shouted to his subordinates around him: "Kill anyone you see, leave no one behind!" ”
Behind him, the dead soldiers of Zhongshan who rushed in looked fierce, and quickly ran past Jiao Touch's side, surrounding the surrounding tents, and the knife hand stood at the tent door and slashed when he saw the sound, and the dead soldiers holding Zhangwu spears did not need to look at the sound at all, regardless of whether someone had stabbed a few holes in the tent first.
The fire archers on the watchtower lit arrows from the torches, drew their bows and shot them at the farthest tent.
Crying, scolding, screaming, and even meaningless screams filled people's ears, making people feel more excited and excited.
Hundreds of paces away, Yan Bei, who heard the sudden sound of shouting and killing, fiercely clutched the ring knife in his palm and shouted: "The front song charges, the left and right two songs outflank and guard against the enemy forces in the north and south, the personal guard song follows me, and the back song follows!" ”
The Yan and Zhao warriors were all heavily armored and should not be moved lightly, so the left and right sides were directly sent to the battlefield where they could hold on, and the personal guards followed Yanbei to slowly press up to the camp that was caught in war in the west.
The soldiers of the Black Mountain West Battalion were already panicked, and at this time, they were attacked on both sides, even if there were no Yan Zhao warriors to join the battlefield, they had already shown defeat. Many people were stabbed to death by spears stabbed from outside the tent while still lying in the tent, and even if they were lucky enough to break out of the tent, it would be a mess of knives to cut their heads and cover their faces, not to mention the fire bolts that ignited the tents one after another.
This battle cannot be fought at all.
It stands to reason that the battalion of dead soldiers is killed from the east, and the Montenegrin army in the east is more miserable, and the middle and rear soldiers should be able to support each other soon, but the bad is that the enemy is on both sides, and the black mountain thieves are like headless flies in the camp at night, and the first thing they heard is the news of the enemy attack from the west, and they ran to the west with their weapons, and the villagers who guarded the wooden fence and the crooked head shot each other with bows and arrows, and it was too late when they found the fire behind the buttocks.
The tents of the Chinese army were almost burned out, and the well-armored Yan Zhao warriors rushed towards them in great strides, how could there be no armorless Black Mountain bandits to resist?
In just a short period of time, the Montenegrin army in the camp was killed to the point that their morale collapsed, and they knelt on the ground to ask for mercy, but they were brutally killed by Jiao Touch's battalion of dead soldiers...... This battle has just begun, and at this time they dare to contain prisoners.
In less than half an hour, the Black Mountain sergeants died more and fled less, and the camp of 3,000 people was cleared by Yanbei and Xiangyong in the blink of an eye, and then Yanbei hurriedly ordered people to open the north and south gates, and put the Yanzhao warriors and Wuhuan cavalry outside the camp to rely on the wall. ”
A calm answer came from the woodland in the distance, and then I saw several villagers walking out of a young man wearing a cloth coat but eight feet long and majestic, and arched his hand to Yanbei and asked, "In Xia Zhaoyun, I don't know who Your Excellency is?" ”
In these years, people like young people with strong appearances, and Yanbei is no exception, he glanced at Zhao Yun carefully, nodded and exclaimed: "What a dignified strong man, I am Yanbei, now is not the time to speak, let the brothers enter the village first, and when the thieves are defeated, we will sit down and talk deeply." ”
Saying that, Yanbei beckoned his soldiers to open the gate of the village.
Zhao Yun looked at Yanbei outside the camp and nodded slowly, his expression a little complicated. He had heard the name of Yanbei too many times, and his opinion of this name had changed from bad to good. If he is allowed to serve, the first choice in the world is Liu Youzhou, who is known as benevolence, but unfortunately there is no way out. Even if Liu Youzhou can't defect, among the generals and lieutenants in the north, Gongsun Zhan, the white horse general outside the Weizhen Fortress, is also the first choice...... And this traitor-born General Yan must be the last choice.
However, in the chaos in Jizhou, no one in the generals and captains in various places put down the rebellion, but it was General Yan, who was born as a rebel general, who was expected by the people of Jizhou, and really led the army out of Youzhou to quell the disaster, which made him also have a good impression of this name.
Life is always so bizarre, the one you want the most is often out of reach; And what you don't want to get, but you are sent to your eyes by the sky.
Zhao Yun thought this way at this time.
Putting aside the complexity of the heart for the time being, with Yanbei's approval, Zhao Yun ordered Xiang Yong to enter the camp, and he stood outside the village with the handle of the knife and looked around the left and right, only to wait for all his subordinates to enter the camp before following into the camp.
Yan Bei looked at this township warrior and was amazed, Lu Yi's letter said that Zhao Yun's township warrior was added by him to make up for 1,000 people, and he heard that the battle in the west was the most intense, attracting most of the enemies for the dead battalion, so that the western battalion was taken so quickly. But Yanbei looked at the Xiangyong who entered the camp, and there were more than 900 people in a rough count, and almost no injuries were made.
On the contrary, the Montenegrin army that fell to the ground under the wall of the western wall had nearly 300 people...... Can this township warrior have such a strong combat power?
Before Yanbei could ask, Zhao Yun had already surrendered his hand and said: "The elite of the general's subordinates, the captain of the koji school and the two hundred strong crossbowmen, most of the black mountains in the village were killed by the crossbowmen, so that Xiangyong had almost no casualties, and Yun was grateful." ”
Yanbei nodded and smiled, and was about to say something, when he heard the order of the soldiers, the camps on both sides of the north and south were attacked by the Black Mountain army, and Yanbei immediately ordered: "The dead soldier battalion guards the south wall, opens the north gate to let the enemy army enter the village, and the Yanzhao warriors line up and block the enemy army with a certain one!" ”
