Chapter 738: Night Attack
Guo Tuchong Yuan Shang said: "Third son, we have no choice, if we don't do anything and sit in Zhuo County, then there is only one way to perish waiting for us."
Going out of the city may be risky, but it is controllable, whether Guo Jia's troops are going north or not, we will send someone to investigate.
Guo Jia and Cheng Yu pretended to be generous, since they only stationed troops in Nancheng to give us convenience, why don't we use it, that is, to explore in Dafangfang, we just want to go down the road set by Guo Jia, only at the critical moment we suddenly change our strategy, who is the host and who is the guest, who designs and who is unknown. ”
"This ...... Well, now that Guo Gong has made a decision, Shang also supports it. Yuan Shang thought about it and found that there was no reason to refute and deny Guo Tu.
Here he only has Su You and Yin Kui and a few 2,000 soldiers and horses, all of whom are Guo Tu and Zhang Jaw, and they all obey Guo Tu's commands.
Although Yuan Shang is the son of Yuan Shao, he has not been able to get the power of Yuan Jun in Youzhou for the time being, although he has opinions, he can only agree with a smile.
Waiting for Yuan Shang and the others to leave, he opened his jaw and said: "Gongzhi, the third prince seems to be a little reluctant and unhappy." ”
"The third prince is still young, and it is normal that he can't see through things, and he will understand after a while." Guo Tu looked at the direction in which Yuan Shang and the others were leaving, and whispered to Zhang Jaw:
"You're out of town tonight, so ......"
After nightfall, the gate of Zhuoxian County was opened, and then a group of men and horses quietly went out of the city and touched the Donglai army camp in Nancheng.
When approaching the city camp, he suddenly stepped on the cordon outside the camp, and the night patrol team of the Donglai Army in the city immediately issued a warning and hurriedly blew a whistle, and the Donglai Army in the camp immediately got up and rushed out of the camp, and then defended.
Yuan Jun tried to break in, but he didn't want the ground to be full of dug holes, and buried spikes or iron coils of no length.
Yuan Jun, who had no idea, was recruited one after another.
"Kill!"
Soon the camp gate of the Donglai Army opened, and Zang Ba led a team of people from inside to rush out.
The generals of the Yuan army retreated with a shout, and then ran towards the county town of Zhuo.
Zang Ba did not chase too far, intercepted and killed a small part of Yuan's army who had come to retreat in a hurry, and then returned to the base camp.
Soon the Yuan army, who went out of the city, returned, and it was Zhang Jaw who led the army, and Guo Tu asked when he returned to the city, "How is the situation?" ”
Zhang Jaw said: "Cheng Yu and Yu Ban were really prepared, they set up a lot of traps outside the camp, and the camp wall was discovered without touching it, and the Donglai army also chased out of the camp, and our army lost five or six hundred people. ”
"So in that hour you are attacking the camp." Guo Tu nodded slightly. 】
Zhang Jaw said: "If you go, Yu Ban's defense will definitely not be relaxed, and it will hurt morale too much to lose troops like this." ”
Guo Tu said: "It's okay, don't get close when you attack the camp, and you don't need to attack the enemy camp, it's just harassment and paralysis." ”
Zhang Jaw seemed to have a hint of enlightenment, but he didn't say much, and he hugged his fists to lead his life.
An hour later, he went to attack the camp again.
This time, he did not break in, but began to beat gongs and drums and set fire to disturb within a certain distance.
The Donglai army was immediately alerted and sent troops to counterattack.
Seeing the situation, Zhang Jaw retreated.
Zang Ba had no choice but to go back to the camp to rest.
Another hour passed, and Jaw opened again.
This time, the Donglai army only counterattacked a little and shot arrows out of the camp, but Zang Ba did not lead the troops to pursue it.
In this way, the open jaw came and went, tossing back and forth.
Tossed until the second half of the night, it was disturbing, and no one was so fierce in the counterattack of the Donglai army.
"Mr. Zhongde, there are people outside the camp who ask to see you."
Cheng Yu asked people to bring in the visitors.
When the visitor saw Cheng Yu, he said: "Mr. Cheng, I am a person from Tianluo Net, and I received special information from our secret son tonight, and I had to go out of the city to report the matter urgently." ”
"Tell me, what's the matter?" Cheng Yu asked.
The person replied: "Guo Tu wants to paralyze Mr. Guo and General Yu, they mainly attack and harass in the first half of the night, and they will change their strategy in the second half of the night, and then wait for our army to really attack the camp after being paralyzed."
At midnight, they will attack after half an hour. ”
Cheng Yu said: "Is the news confirmed?" Make no mistake. ”
"Mr. Cheng, rest assured, the news is true, this is what we have collected through several channels, unless Guo Tu does not want to send troops out of the city tonight, he will definitely launch a night attack half an hour after the arrival of Yin Shi."
Cheng Yu nodded slightly, and then said that he understood.
The messenger left the camp overnight, Cheng Yu found Yu Ban and Zang Ba, and then gave a few instructions, and the two went down to prepare.
More than half of the time Zhuo County was opened, and then the night attack on the military camp came again, and this time there were more people.
But he was only halfway there, when suddenly an army was killed from the left flank.
This is exactly the army that Zang Ba has ambushed in advance.
Now that they received the news, of course they didn't want to be harassed passively, so they took the initiative to attack and come to a counter-ambush.
However, the Yuan army who sneaked up didn't seem to be much panicked, and the two armies fought for a while.
When the battle was not long, I saw the same shouting and killing sound coming from the direction of the Donglai army camp.
A heavily armed elite Yuan army rushed along the main gate of the camp.
Yu Ban, who was guarding the camp, hurriedly commanded the army to counterattack, but the attacking Yuan army was the most proud soldier under Zhang Jaw.
They held halberds or heavy shields in their hands, and then formed a diamond-shaped shuttle formation to move forward, and the shield soldiers surrounded the general formation to protect it.
The halberd warrior held a halberd in the middle, and countless arrows shot at him, which could not do any damage to these diamond-shaped shuttle arrays.
Soon these halberds advanced to the camp gate.
Then the battalions began to push inward.
On the gate of the camp there was a forbidden pedestrian wall, which was originally full of crossbowmen, but the bows and arrows were useless to the halberders.
Yu Ban had people replaced with spearmen.
The spearmen slammed their spears into the gap in the Euphorbia's shield below.
Not to be outdone, the Euphorbia also stuck the longer Euphorbia out of the connecting gap and stabbed it upward.
The two sides came and went, you stabbed and stabbed, and the battle was also quite fierce.
Screams rang out from time to time.
Of course, in this contest, the Donglai Army suffered some losses.
Because the place where they stood was being pushed by the halberds, the camp gate was unstable, and the soldiers of the Donglai Army standing on it were very easy to fall when they leaned over.
One moment you wrestle, you will be stabbed by a halberd.
So this contest is a small victory for the Euphorbia.
"Click...... Boom ......"
The originally strong camp gate was finally pushed down by the halberd warriors with full strength, and smashed into the camp.
The shield soldiers of the Donglai Army, who were originally preparing to block the Euphorbia, retreated one after another to dodge, and if they did not dodge, they would inevitably be hit and injured.
"Kill!"
As soon as the camp gate was broken, this was the greatest encouragement to the halberd warriors, and it was something that gave them chicken blood.
One by one, the will to fight was high, and one by one the diamond-shaped shuttle formations drilled in, and then divided into three directions: left and right wings and center, and rushed to kill all parts of the camp.
