Chapter 3: The Shura Battlefield
Late at night, after camp.
There was a snoring sound in the tent, and Xu Tian was used to sleeping soundly in this environment.
But he wasn't asleep at this time, he listened to the sound of neat footsteps outside the tent, the sound of rubbing against the armor.
sighed in his heart, he had been here for more than a month, and in this month, he had seen many scenes that he couldn't even imagine.
Many soldiers who were hit by arrows died alive in tents because there was no way to save them, and some of them festered and died, and people were dying here every day.
Xu Tian suddenly rose into despair, he knew that maybe he didn't know when he would be carried out like them!
The last time he was called to carry the body, he vomited alive for half an hour. Xu Tian's character is originally a little cowardly, as long as he can find a reason to convince him, he will go with the flow and go against the grain.
But now, he felt the extreme fear of death, and an impulse suddenly rose in his heart!
He can't do this, even if he dies here in the end, he can't die in this back camp!
He made a bold decision, he was going to go to the front, see the battlefield, see the ancient wars, and even if he died, at least he would look like a man.
Early in the morning, Xu Tian woke up early, and he took advantage of the gap between the two tents on the side to run out of the gap between the two tents on the side.
It's a pity that this place is too big, and just as he walked through a tent in the center of the back camp, a cold snort came from behind him!
"What, I'm tired of waiting in the back camp, do you want to come and see the general!"
Xu Tian turned around in shock and saw Deputy General Zhang with a gloomy face, and hurriedly clasped his fists and bowed: "I've seen General Zhang!" Vice General Zhang snorted coldly again, slowly pulled out his sword with his right hand, and spoke again:
"You're trying to escape?!"
Xu Tian's soul flew away, and he bowed again and said as fast as he could:
"No... No, people are dying every day in the back camp, I don't know when it will be my turn, I am not willing to die here like this, I have never done anything big in my life. I don't dare. That's also scary. I don't want to do that anymore. I want to go to the battlefield and die like a man! ”
After saying that, Xu Tian bowed again, a trace of appreciation flashed in Vice General Zhang's eyes, his face softened slightly, and he took out half of his sword and pressed it back.
"You really want to go?"
"Yes!!"
Vice Admiral Zhang turned around.
"Come with me."
Xu Tian silently followed Deputy General Zhang, all the way to the back hill of the back camp, although Xu Tian was puzzled in his heart, but did not speak, kept following, half an hour later, the two of them came to the top of the back mountain. Vice General Zhang pointed ahead, and Xu Tian immediately looked at it, which made Xu Tian's heart tremble. A heart-shaking image appeared in his eyes...
The rear camp was only a tenth of the entire barracks.
In front of the entire barracks, there was an endless plain.
At this moment, the two sides are arranging their troops, dense figures shuttling, the sound of killing is shocking, and the sound of war drums is loud.
It was like a drop of water in a pan of oil, and the whole battlefield exploded. Countless people fought together.
I saw a sergeant in black armor being the first to rush forward, and was stabbed in the chest by a spear of the opponent, and fell to the ground and died.
On the other side, a general on a black horse was holding a big sword, and when the knife fell, a figure fell, and the Grim Reaper brandished his death scythe on the entire battlefield at this moment, harvesting human lives...
Suddenly, a feathered arrow rushed forward with a screeching speed, piercing the throat of the general with the broadsword in his hand.
For a moment, blood sprayed, the man fell off his horse and died, and in an instant, many feathered arrows rained down.
I saw that in front of Yuan's camp, there were several high platforms on several sand dunes the size of small hills.
There were countless archers standing densely on the high platform, frantically pouring down the arrows in their hands, like rocket artillery, and for a while, Cao Jun's side suffered countless casualties, screaming again and again...
At this moment, Cao's military camp was opened, and dozens of wooden chariots with a height of two stories were pushed out by hundreds of sergeants.
The shout shook the sky, this huge chariot, I don't know what method was used, it could throw hundreds of zhang of stones of several zhang in size. For a time, the rocks were flying. The rain of arrows was pervasive, and in just a few breaths, hundreds of soldiers were killed, just like the battlefield of Shura.
Deputy General Zhang looked at Xu Tian, who was obviously on the spot, and slowly spoke:
"Our army only has 70,000 horses, and there are 300,000 people against Yuan's army, if we continue to fight like this, do you still think we will win?!"
Vice General Zhang looked at Xu Tian, and Xu Tian was stunned, although he was already shocked by everything in front of him at this time. But when he heard Vice General Zhang's words, he still tasted some taste, seemed to understand something, and said:
"All this is just the surface, the war is not only based on numbers, the most important thing is to look at the will and strategy of the commander, since the general asked me, I will tell the truth, this time, the Yuan army will be defeated!!"
Vice General Zhang glanced at Xu Tian meaningfully, in his opinion, from the appearance of the person in front of him to the present, everything is full of weirdness, he doesn't know why, he has a trace of trust in this person, Zhang Quan sighed secretly, and said secretly in his heart:
"Whether this person is right or wrong, I have both hands ready and it is best if he is right. Wrong, I also have a back hand. ”
Thinking of this, Zhang Quan's expression softened even more, and he turned to Xu Tiandao:
"You don't have to go back, follow me from now on, be my guard, the military camp has been unstable recently. Follow me, it doesn't hurt! ”
Xu Tian hurriedly clenched his fists and said yes, and suddenly, Xu Tian thought of something and said:
"General, this mountain will not become a breakthrough for Yuan's army to attack at night, I see this place..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Quan's voice came:
"It's been surrounded by heavy troops for a long time, don't worry."
Xu Tian was silent and followed Zhang Quan down the mountain...
