496, the strangeness of the camp stealing war
Zhou Yu was naturally suspicious of Pang Yanxiong's strange performance.
But Zhou Yu knew that this was not a means that Pang Yan's rough temper could come up with, so he quickly realized that Pang Yan might have a strategist around him to guide him, and maybe it was the talent that Zhu Wei obtained in Jingzhou.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help frowning, because the scouts he sent out were blocked by Zhu Wei's army, and he couldn't get too close to Zhu Wei's army, and now Zhou Yu didn't know what changes and movements Zhu Wei's army had at all.
At the same time, the suspicious Zhou Yu had another guess in his heart, whether all this would be a ploy by the strategists in Pang Yan's army, just to trick himself into sending troops to rob the camp, so as to prepare some means to wait for him in Zhu Wei's army village.
Thinking about it like this, Zhou Yu's heart was even more unpredictable, so in Zhou Yu's hesitation, another day passed.
However, in the early morning of this day, the city gate of Youquan County suddenly opened, and then a large number of Zhou Yu's soldiers and horses quietly left the city, and went in the direction of the military village where Zhu Wei's army was located.
By the light of the cloud, Zhou Yu personally commanded the army in battle armor, he couldn't wait any longer, and was ready to sneak attack Zhu Wei's army village to break the current deadlock.
For a time, everyone in Zhou Yu's army was wrapped in cloth under their feet, biting wood in their mouths, except for some commanding officers above the rank of military marquis, no one else was allowed to speak easily, so as not to expose the traces of the army.
The military village of Zhu Wei's army was built on a wasteland next to the river, and the original trees around it had long been cut down and became the raw materials for the construction of the military village.
This also broadened the vigilance vision of the soldiers in Zhu Wei's military village, after all, there was an empty area within a radius of thousands of steps around the military village, and as long as there was an enemy attack, it would soon be able to warn the military village.
However, now the sneak attack army brought by Zhou Yu can still hide its figure under the cover of the dark sky in the early morning.
In this way, when Zhou Yu led his troops to a mile away from Zhu Wei's military village, he sent more than 1,000 elites in the army as the forerunner, secretly went over to clear the scout eyeliner that Zhu Wei's army might have sent on the periphery of the military village, and was also responsible for moving away the antlers and horses around the military village as obstacles.
Then Zhou Yu divided the troops brought out this time into several groups and made some arrangements.
In the end, Zhou Yucai sent two more generals with nearly 5,000 soldiers to sneak in the direction of Zhu Wei's army village, preparing to rush into it after more than 1,000 soldiers in front of him sneak attack and open the door of Zhu Wei army village.
In this way, as time passed, more than 1,000 elite soldiers sent at the front had already approached Zhu Wei's military village, and a road was cleared in front of the gate of the military village that could be passed by the follow-up army.
As for the soldiers on duty above Zhu Weijun's village, they didn't seem to notice anything, and they still stood rigidly on the bridge of the gate tower, as if they had fallen asleep, almost motionless.
But at this moment, the more than 1,000 soldiers at the front didn't care about anything else, and quickly set up a human ladder to climb into the military village, and then sneaked to the front of the village gate, and opened the gate of the military village with a "squeak".
It's just that with the opening of the gate of Zhu Wei's army, as if something was pulled, the alarm bell of "jingle bell" suddenly sounded in Zhuwei's army, and it was obvious that the sneak attack of Zhou Yu's army had been detected.
But at this time, since the gate of the military village has been opened, it seems that there is no way to stop the sneak attack of Zhou Yu's army, so Zhou Yu's soldiers who opened the gate quickly beckoned the follow-up more than 5,000 soldiers to rush over to the side of Zhu Wei's army village.
But in front of the military village, Zhou Yu's soldiers suddenly found something strange, "It's not good, these are straw people!" Could it be an empty village? Hit the trick? ”
"Be careful, be careful!"
It turned out that the so-called police sentry soldiers standing on the gate tower of the military village were actually straw men pretending to be straw people, which means that this Zhu Wei military village must be strange, or have some precautions, and the sound of the alarm bell is also a little weird.
Therefore, the Zhou Yu soldiers who found the straw man couldn't help shouting and warning at their own army that rushed over, but at this time, there was no turning back for the soldiers who rushed to kill the soldiers who entered Zhu Wei's army's village.
Anything else has not happened, they can't just go back.
What's more, the two generals of Zhou Yu who led the troops had also been advised by Zhou Yu before they came, so they didn't seem to be afraid of the traps here, and one of the generals just shouted in their mouths, "Kill it!" Kill it! Burn down this military village! ”
"Kill! Kill! ”
The more than 5,000 Zhou Yu soldiers who rushed over and the 1,000 soldiers in front of them also had the courage to rush into the depths of Zhu Wei's village.
But before Zhou Yu's soldiers rushed into the Zhu Wei army village and set it on fire, suddenly a fire had already burned in the area of the front camp of Zhu Wei army's village, as if it had been prepared to ignite the fire, and when these Zhou Yu soldiers arrived, the flames burned in all directions.
This inevitably made Zhou Yu's soldiers who rushed in stunned again, and many people slowed down the pace of rushing and killing, and then saw that there was fire in front of them and all around, and they didn't dare to rush and kill at will.
"The enemy army has been tricked, kill!" "Kill them, kill!" ”
At this time, the sound of shouting and killing also sounded inside the Zhu Wei military village, and then one after another feather arrows shot at the Zhou Yu soldiers who were illuminated by the flames, but the Zhou Yu soldiers who rushed in trembled one by one.
"Withdraw... Withdraw..., it's a trick! ”
At this time, a general who had been instructed by Zhou Yu also shouted urgently, and then beckoned the soldiers who had not really seen Zhu Wei's ambush to retreat, as if they were preparing to withdraw from Zhu Wei's army village like this.
"Knock knock...... Bell Bell Bell ......"
For a while, there were also drums and gongs in Zhu Wei's army, as if Zhu Wei's army was really in ambush and was about to rush over to chase Zhou Yu's army to steal the camp.
Then, in the chaos, the nearly 6,000 stolen camp troops sent by Zhou Yu to the front also escaped from the Zhu Wei army village and withdrew in the direction where Zhou Yu was ambushed at the moment.
This is also Zhou Yu's strategy, he brought so many troops out, but only divided part of the troops to steal the camp, just for a backhand.
If there is an ambush in Zhu Wei's army, then lead Zhu Wei's army to where his ambush is, so that he can use the ambush to kill Zhu Wei's pursuers, or maybe he will win in the chaos.
However, the nearly 6,000 soldiers of the stolen battalion who escaped from Zhu Wei's army village withdrew not long after being led by the two generals, and soon discovered some abnormalities, and none of Zhu Wei's soldiers chased them out.
Therefore, these two generals couldn't help but stop again, and looked at the Zhu Wei army village with firelight and gongs and drums shaking the sky, which was really a bit strange.
Could it be that the ambush soldiers in Zhu Wei's army were stopped by the flames that burned in their own house, so there was no way to chase them down?
But that's unlikely......
