Volume 1 Chapter 601 The Night Attack Failed
The night was dark and the wind was howling.
In the grass in the distance outside the city of Qibei, the yin wind is gusting, towering and moving, and it seems that someone is among them.
At the top of the city wall, there are soldiers patrolling back and forth.
Deep in the grass, Optimism is sitting quietly on the back of a red horse, waiting for news.
But after a while, the grass shook somewhere among the prostrate soldiers in the front row, and in a moment, a soldier-like figure quickly lowered down from it.
With an optimistic look on his face, as soon as the soldier walked to the horse, he bowed his head and asked.
"How?"
The soldier clenched his fists, did not dare to raise his head, and said in a low voice.
"Everything is normal, nothing unusual is found."
Optimistic was overjoyed when he heard this, with a dark smile on his face, and whispered.
"Hmph, they can't guess that the emperor will attack Qibei at night."
After speaking, he waved his big hand around him and whispered: "Pass my order, attack the city." ”
As soon as the words landed, all the soldiers immediately rushed forward, but in a moment, they had reached the outside of Qibei City.
Upstairs in Qibei City, because the night was deep, some soldiers were already a little drowsy, and the captain who was patrolling the corridor inadvertently swept towards the outside of the city, and immediately shouted with alarm bells.
"There is an enemy attack, there is an enemy attack, there is an enemy attack!"
Everyone in the city tower woke up instantly, everyone put on a posture of resisting the enemy, and the patrol captain first shouted: "Meet the enemy!" ”。
Then, he pulled the soldiers on the side and commanded in a low voice: "Go and tell the prince that the enemy has arrived." ”
The soldier took the order and left.
On the other side, after the optimism shouted to meet the enemy, he gave the order to release the arrows.
In an instant, countless arrows rained down on the city wall, because at night, the people on the city wall could not see the arrows clearly, and the screams were one after another, and the torch line on the city wall was erratic.
As soon as the patrol leader saw the offensive and knew that it was menacing, he immediately sent people to replenish his manpower and went into battle himself.
Under the city, optimistic stood outside the battlefield and watched, and saw that the city wall was already overturned by people on their backs, and there was chaos, so he immediately ordered.
"Ascend to the city!"
In an instant, countless soldiers carrying escalators rushed out, and under the cover of archers and infantry, they reached the bottom of the city wall and set up the escalator.
As soon as the soldiers in the city saw the situation, they immediately met the enemy in phalanx and threw down the boulders that had been prepared for a long time.
The enemies under the city, there are many people, and there is an endless stream of people who want to climb the city wall, and the stones on the city are in short supply, and the frequency of pushing and smashing is gradually reduced.
Standing in the distance, Optimistic looked at the several human stairs on the city wall, and smiled mockingly.
"Hmph, Fu Moyu, you're just like that."
When the generals who accompanied him heard this, they also echoed and replied: "It's all the second prince's clever calculation, so no matter how powerful Prince Fu is, he will not be the opponent of the second prince." ”
"Yes, it's still the second prince's chess master, and my subordinates admire it."
"Admire, admire."
Optimistic did not say anything when he heard this, but the corners of his mouth hooked up a smug smile.
The people who climbed the ladder had already climbed the city wall, and the hearts of the few people who watched silently were suddenly relieved, the battle situation was good, and the overall situation had been decided. 8090 Chinese
Just when a few people were relaxed, suddenly, a group of people and horses emerged from the east and west south, and rushed into the city wall in an instant, and a miserable scream rang out in an instant.
The optimistic expression tightened, and he pulled the horse god, and said solemnly: "What's the matter?" ”
Several generals beside him also spoke out in surprise, and they didn't know each other.
At this moment, a soldier quickly ran from the front and reported loudly: "Report, there is an enemy suddenly coming from the southeast and west, there are many people, and the leader is suspected to be the prince of Qi Beicheng. ”
As soon as the words landed, everyone was shocked, and asked optimistically, "What?" You repeat. ”
The soldier bowed his head and repeated: "There is an enemy suddenly attacking from the southeast, west and west, there are many people, and the leader is suspected to be the prince of Qi Beicheng. ”
Hearing this, his optimistic face turned blue, Fu Moyu? How could it be him?
After optimism, several generals glanced at each other, their faces were in ruins, and before they could open their mouths, they heard someone report again.
"Report, the enemy is menacing, and our army has suffered heavy losses."
Looking up at the battlefield optimistically, he saw that the situation had changed abruptly, the human ladder on the city wall of Qibei had disappeared, and the chaos on the wall seemed to be a little lower than just now.
"How so?" Optimism looked at the city walls and muttered to himself.
Behind him, an old and solemn general stepped forward, clenched his fists and whispered: "Second prince, I'm afraid we have fallen for Fu villain's tricks, at this moment, it's better to retreat first." ”
Optimistic glanced up at the general, his eyes were gloomy, like a poisonous snake, which made people feel frightened, and the general was remorseful when he was looked at
fell, but could only continue hard.
Looking back at the battlefield optimistically, the voices on the field were torn, and the soldiers on the other side fell in pieces, and for a moment, Optimistic turned the hemp rope, took the lead in running back, and said in a loud voice: "Order, retreat." ”
In the next moment, a sound of retreat resounded across the battlefield.
Barrack.
In the night, a figure rode straight to the gate of the barracks.
The guards immediately drew their spears and shouted.
"The army returns to camp and opens the door to greet you."
As soon as the soldier heard the voice that it was the second prince, he immediately put down his weapon and opened the door to salute.
Optimistically rode his horse and galloped all the way to the chief account in the depths of the barracks.
In front of the main account, the sound of horses' hooves stopped, and immediately a soldier went up to lead the horse, Yueqing walked out of the tent, saw that he was optimistic and came back, and asked quietly: "How?" ”
Optimistic turned over and dismounted, saw Yueqing in front of him and asked, snorted angrily at him, and passed by without saying a word.
Seeing this, Yueqing knew it from the bottom of his heart, so he didn't follow in angrily.
As soon as the account was entered, a commotion was heard, and the tea dish next to the tent owner was thrown to the ground, and Yueqing looked at the initiator.
Optimistic was looking at the ground with anger on his face, Yueqing rolled his eyes, walked nearby, and asked softly: "The attack failed?" ”
Le watched to the questioning place, his big fourth emperor brother, was concerned about the result of this righteousness, hum, what do you care, you obviously want to see him laugh and mock him, don't think he doesn't know.
Optimistic sneered in his heart, but he didn't hide his anger on his face: "Hmph, was attacked by a place? ”
Yueqing was relieved when he heard this, but he still pretended to be surprised and asked, "Was it a sneak attack?" How so? But the news leaked? What about the losses? ”
Optimistic walked to the main seat and sat down, glanced at Yueqing, and said angrily: "The army has withdrawn, and the loss will be reported in a while, but it should not be small, hum, that Fu villain is insidious and cunning, taking advantage of our full strength to attack the city suddenly from somewhere else, the army that hit was caught off guard, hum, this revenge, I must revenge." ”
Yue Qing saw that he was optimistic and ruthless, with a fierce look in his eyes, knowing his temperament of retribution, he would definitely find a chance to take revenge next time.
But if the two countries want to live in peace, they must not fight any longer, Yueqing stepped forward slightly, and smiled optimistically: "Brother Huang doesn't have to be angry, victory or defeat on the battlefield is a common thing in soldiers, we have a surprise attack plan, maybe they don't have it, the body is the most important thing, Brother Huang should pay more attention." ”
