The night was thick, the bells were melodious, and the owls were cooing.

The fire crackled, and in the shaking firelight, Ghost Cry and Cai Wei leaned side by side under the roots of a tree, and the two of them were very tired, and they didn't care about their image, so they fell asleep with their heads on their heads.

The surroundings were quiet and sleepy.

Two soldiers of the Shu army who were on vigil sat on the edge of the cliff, chatting and passing the fatigue.

The back mountain is quiet, and the camp in front of the mountain is also silent.

The golden lion makes a loud snoring sound, which is extremely rhythmic and is the best lullaby.

The patrolling soldiers took as little pace as they could, and passed in front of the tent.

Outside the camp, on a big tree, the secret whistle listened to the bird's call, whistled in response, and then learned that Suo Suo went down the tree, but after a while, another person came up and replaced him.

At the top of the mountain, the cold wind howled.

The soldiers, covered in vegetation, looked across the mountain, looking at the place where the firelight gathered outside the mountain, revealing hatred, and then looking into the distance, the hatred in their eyes disappeared and turned into anticipation. The money has been earned, and what is needed now is to bring people back with money.

Hold on a little longer, Chang Geng Xingjun said, hold on for two more days, and someone from Shushan will come to help them maintain the situation, and then they will be much easier.

Wait until half a month later, the army of the Qin State will also arrive, and at that time, they will be able to go home.

At the foot of the mountain, it was dark.

The Foresters marched through the night, their hooves rustling on the thick leaves. Looking up at the mountain, the red light in the eyes of the warhorses and the members of the Imperial Forest Army became more and more intense.

The rope was touched by the horse's hooves, and a flame was ignited in a dark wood, and then it spread rapidly.

The Guards were exposed to the flames, and the next moment, the rapid sound of gongs resounded throughout the mountain.

"Enemy attack!"

In an instant, the silence of the night was broken. The eldest prince who slept in his clothes grabbed his weapon and rushed out of the tent, and in the firelight, the figures were staggered.

Below, the Imperial Foresters launched a surprise attack with the fires in the forest.

Their horses are strange in their crotch, and even on steep slopes, they still run like the wind.

The spear stabbed out, and the stake, which had been deeply embedded in the ground, was pulled up.

The archers were no longer short of arrows, and they all bent their bows at the Imperial Guard. The pikemen shouted in unison, and stuck their spears diagonally into the ground, the tips of their spears pointing diagonally at the rushing Foresters. The shield hand took a step forward, and watched the royal forest army oppressed like a huge wave arched his waist, and the shield in his hand was erected, interlocking with the shield on the side, and roared forward.

Rumble!

The shield shattered, and the shield hand vomited blood.

The spear pierced through the horse and snapped, and the Foresters flew out of their horses.

In the attic, the shooter shoots downward. Several of the Foresters in the crowd raised their heads and took out their bows and arrows and aimed them at the attic above.

Puff puff puff......

The archer was hit by several arrows in succession, and before he could scream, he was already exhausted, and he rolled over from the attic and fell to the ground.

The eldest prince looked at the Shu army who used his life to block the muzzle of the Royal Forest Army, and his heart was dripping blood.

Although the discipline of this Shu army is not as good as that of the old Qin army, it has a strong impact and is one of the elites in the world. Even if you are attacked unguarded at night, you can appear on the battlefield with all armor at the first time, and you can quickly organize and attack the enemy as if you were not afraid, which is not powerful.

Therefore, seeing them go to death like this, how can the eldest prince not be heartbroken.

He quickly summoned a dozen spearmen and more than thirty archers, ambushed them at the door of the second line of defense, and then shouted loudly to have people ring the gong to inform the Shu army of the first line of defense to retreat.

The Shu army in the first line of defense breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the voice of the eldest prince. After many days of running-in, they already trusted the eldest prince very much, so they retreated in batches.

The Imperial Forest Army ignored the tail of the Shu army and was soon led to the door.

The first dozen or so rushed in, and before the back could catch up, there was a bang, and the huge wooden gate fell, firmly blocking the behind.

"Kill!"

At the sound of an order, the spear thrower and the archer who had already been ambushed here exerted their strength at the same time, and the short spears and arrows flew towards the Royal Forest Army who had just rushed into the second line of defense.

People turned their horses up, and in an instant, half of the dozen or so Imperial Forest Soldiers were missing.

The eldest prince held a torch in one hand and a spear in the other, shouting loudly to make everyone notice him, and then took the lead in launching a counterattack. The Shu army, which was still retreating, saw the eldest prince, turned the spear, and launched a counterattack together.

The remnants of the second line of defense had no way to retreat, and were surrounded by numerous spear heads, making it impossible for them to dodge or fully defend.

These remnants of the Imperial Forest Army did not dodge and defend, but relied on their armor to stab with their guns, and the Shu army really couldn't take them for a while.

At the moment of the stalemate, more than a dozen locks were thrown, and the three soldiers of the Royal Forest Army were trapped, and they wanted to struggle, but they were dragged out by the soldiers of the Shu Army, and the hammer was waiting.

In the sound of Dangdang, the armor on their bodies was smashed into broken iron, and the bones on their bodies were broken for an unknown number of years, even if their vitality was much more tenacious than before, they were also beaten to death.

Among the remaining Royal Forest Army, there were also two who were in a hurry because of the lock, and then they were hit more than a dozen times and were killed by breaking their armor.

At this time, there were only five Imperial Forest Army left in the second line of defense, and the Shu army took the lead one by one, with spears, hammers and axes, and four of the five people disappeared in an instant, leaving only one of them to be particularly fierce.

A spear could not be splashed with water, and for a time it not only withstood hundreds of Shu troops, but also killed and wounded more than a dozen Shu army soldiers.

The eyes of the soldiers of the Shu army were red, especially when one took the initiative to kill the spear in the hand of the Imperial Forest Army with his chest, the extraordinarily brave Imperial Forest Army finally came to an end.

Seven or eight spears pierced his chest, arms, and thighs, and with the combined efforts of the crowd dragged him out, and then seven or eight spears pierced his body from behind and lifted him high.

Even so he was not dead, and broke five guns with a strong force.

The eldest prince squeezed to the front and stabbed him in the throat with a single shot, ending him.

All the soldiers pulled out their spears one after another, and the extraordinarily brave Imperial Forest Army fell to the ground, and the eldest prince stepped forward, stepped on the corpse and beheaded it with a knife, completely solving the trouble, and then took the head in the firelight, and immediately recognized its person, and couldn't help but lose his mind slightly.

Ma Zhongyu, this fierce general who gave Da Qin a lot of headaches, died here. Looking at his face, for some reason, the eldest prince actually felt that he was very relieved to die.

The remaining Imperial Forest Army, which was blocked in the first line of defense of the camp, was no longer a problem, and their fate had been decided in the face of the Shu army, which had fully woken up.

Arrows rained down and guns rained down.

In the firelight, the Imperial Forest Army fell one by one. After an hour, the first line of defense returned to the Shu army.

"Look, eldest prince!"

Stepping on the flesh-and-blood earth, the eldest prince came to the edge of the slope, looking at the mountains and forests below that had become a sea of fire, he seemed to hear something, and asked the people around him, "Did you hear that?"

One of them hesitated for a moment and said, "It seems...... Someone was crying. ”

"It's not people, it's a group of people. Another spoke.

"It seems that there are people in the fire, and there are many of them. ”

couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

If it weren't for his caution, every time the other party retreated, he would go to the woods to fill the trap, causing the other party to trigger the trap and set the entire forest on fire, and then the large army behind the Royal Forest Army would be surrounded by flames and intercepted, the consequences would be self-evident.

Similarly, if it weren't for the precipitous nature of the place he chose, I'm afraid that even that little bit of the Forester would have caused them to suffer heavy losses.

If it weren't for the fact that the entire camp was not built conventionally, but layer after layer, like terraces, one defense line after another, I am afraid that it would not have been possible for the other Shu soldiers who were still sleeping to wake up and gather, and they would have been dispersed.

If it weren't for the Shu army, which was brave enough, it would still be calm in the face of a sneak attack......

If it weren't for the starlight tonight, it would still be bright......

If it weren't for the fact that everyone in the Shu army was strong enough, there were few people with night blindness......

If it weren't for the trust of today's Shu army soldiers......

If, among so many ifs, one of them is not achieved, he may face a defeat, and tonight is too dangerous.
