Chapter 222: The passing year is unfavorable

The deafening sound of gold made the soldiers who were running away gradually come to their senses!

The soldiers looked at each other with expressions of disbelief written on their faces!

Zhang Liao ordered Zhang Xu and Zhao Kai to bring the helpless soldiers to safety for a temporary rest!

Half an hour later.

Zhao Kai and Zhang Xu came to the tent temporarily built by Zhang Liao's people.

After the two saluted, Zhang Liao asked with a gloomy face, "What are the casualties of our army?" ”

Zhao Kai and Zhang Xu glanced at each other, Zhao Kai nodded silently at Zhang Xu, signaling to him, Zhang Xu shook his head helplessly, and sighed: "There are more than two thousand casualties, and the army's combat strength is less than eight thousand!" ”

Zhang Liao frowned and asked, "Is there a specific number?" How many died, how many were injured? ”

Zhang Xu stubbornly said: "More than a thousand people died!" More than 1,000 people were injured! ”

Zhang Liao slapped the case and said angrily: "Bastard! A bunch of useless rubbish! ”

Zhang Liao was obviously so angry that he hadn't been angry and scolded for a long time, and he scolded the street like a shrew.

The generals have not seen Zhang Liao so angry for a long time, and now Zhang Liao suddenly came out like this, and everyone was so scared that they didn't even dare to breathe!

Zhang Liao swept the faces of the generals one by one and asked, "Is there any need for this night battle to continue?" ”

Zhang Xu shook his head slowly when he heard this, and said, "One blow, then decline, three and exhaustion!" Our army has lost the opportunity, and it is futile to continue fighting, so it is better to let the soldiers rest for a good night, and it is not too late to fight again tomorrow! ”

Zhang Liao sighed helplessly and said, "It seems that it can only be like this!" ”

Zhao Kai suddenly had an idea, so he stepped forward and took the initiative to offer a plan: "I have a plan, I don't know if I should talk about it?" ”

Zhang Liao glanced at Zhao Kai, and forcibly held back his anger and said, "But it doesn't hurt to say it!" ”

In the face of adversity, he can still humbly accept advice, this is Zhang Liao's excellence!

"Although the night battle is over, we can't let the soldiers in the battalion sleep soundly, the general can order people to go to the enemy camp every other time to beat the drums for a while, so that they are always in a state of tension, not to eat well, let alone sleep well, this is a tired soldier's strategy!" Zhao Kai said!

"This ...... Is it feasible? Zhang Liao was skeptical of Zhao Kaijin's strategy.

"Try it and you'll know!" Zhao Kai said confidently.

After a short period of hesitation, Zhang Liao finally agreed to Zhao Kai's suggestion!

An hour later! It's three quarters of an ugly time!

Under the cover of night, 500 soldiers led a mule cart carrying a cowhide drum and a gong in their hands, and came to a place more than 35 paces away from the front of Han Bao's camp, which was just outside the range of Liaodong's strong crossbow.

The soldiers lined up the cowhide drums, and then each stood in front of the drum, and when the commander gave the order, they could beat the drums and gongs, so as to disturb the dreams of the soldiers in the battalion.

Everyone looked at the pitch-black camp with a silly smile on their faces, as if the trick was about to succeed.

When the soldiers were happily making the final preparations, there was a group of people crawling more than two hundred steps away from them, two hundred people on the left and right sides, and the leader of the team was surnamed Han, with a single name and a Peng character.

Han Peng's father died on the battlefield with Li Man, and his mother raised him with hard work, and then died of illness, and Han Peng has become a helpless orphan since then!

Han Bao took pity on his life experience and chose him as his personal guard!

Han Peng is loyal to Han Bao and has won Han Bao's trust, and has now been promoted to the position of a pro-soldier lieutenant under Han Bao!

Han Peng is calm and measured, and he can complete the military orders laid by Han Bao to the letter!

Han Bao is far-reaching, he is a rare all-round talent in civil and military affairs, Zhang Liao's army has just retreated, and Han Bao immediately considered the possibility that the opponent may take a tired strategy!

So, Han Bao ordered Han Peng to lead the troops to ambush on both sides of the camp, and wait for the opportunity to move when the enemy army appeared!

Three long and two short bird calls sounded!

Han Peng took two hundred Youzhou soldiers armed with strong crossbows, hunched his waist and quietly touched in the direction where the enemy army was.

When he reached a hundred and fifty steps away from the enemy, Han Peng shouted loudly and said, "Release the arrow!" ”

After Han Peng gave the order, the soldiers under his command hurriedly raised their crossbows and shot the crossbow arrows forward.

After hearing Han Peng's roar, the enemy soldiers, who were originally happy, knew that the situation was not good, and they were exposed.

However, Han Peng did not give them any chance to escape.

The sound of swishing crossed the silent night sky, shooting into the body of the enemy soldier like a Hades sticker, mercilessly harvesting the lives of the enemy soldiers.

Everyone was once again stunned by the Youzhou soldiers, and when they were suddenly attacked, a situation similar to the camp roar actually happened again.

I have to say that this group of second-hand goods really remembers to eat and not to fight.

When the soldiers saw that the robes around them were killed and wounded by the crossbow shots, some of the cowards immediately made the choice of turning around and running away, and they rushed towards their own camp at a speed of 100 meters.

The more experienced veterans chose to continue beating the drums, what they wanted at the moment was that they could disgust the Youzhou soldiers, because they knew that they couldn't escape, and they couldn't outrun the crossbow arrows of Liaodong with two legs.

Fortunately, there was no stampede in Yingxiao this time, and there was no situation where Pao Ze waved his knife and slashed each other!

There are also benefits of fewer people!

A quarter of an hour later.

The 500 soldiers in Zhang Liao's army were all shot into hedgehogs without exception.

Han Peng ordered people to clean up the battlefield, and the soldiers were not used to the wounded enemy soldiers, they ignored the wails of the wounded soldiers, and directly pulled out the crossbow arrows that were still usable from their bodies, those soldiers who were already dead were fine, but those soldiers who were only wounded, but not dead were completely tragic.

No matter how they pleaded, the Youzhou soldiers seemed to turn a deaf ear, they stepped on the body of the wounded soldier with one foot, and with a slight force of the hand holding the arrow shaft, the crossbow arrow was pulled out along with the flesh and skin of the wounded soldier.

The wails of the wounded and sick were constantly heard all around, but their wails and cries did not bring the slightest sympathy and pity.

The Jin soldiers, who were wounded by the crossbow shots, finally died in agony after being tortured.

Most of them died of blood loss, which can also be understood as the fact that they were painful to death.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the Youzhou soldiers returned to their camp with the captured booty.

On Zhang Liao's side, among the five hundred soldiers, less than ten escaped from Shengtian.

When Zhang Liao heard this very bad news, he just said lightly: "Pass my order!" No one is allowed to leave the camp, and everything will be said after dawn! Violators will be killed! ”

Looking at the stars outside the camp, Zhang Liao sighed helplessly, and said secretly: "When you meet the evil star of Han Bao, it is really unfavorable!" ”
