Chapter 30 The Wind Blows and the Light Shines at Night

On a snowy night, the ground was freezing and the weather was cold, and under the thatched hut behind the barracks, the soldiers in armor and wrapped in bedding were tossing and turning, and they were so noisy that they could not sleep.

There are bows and arrows, swords and cards beside him, and a spear in his arms.

They did not wait for dawn to attack, but waited until dawn to end their night duty, and they could go back to the camp to rest, and the enemy might come to attack at night, so someone must be ready at all times and react immediately if there is a movement.

There is no way to prepare in this way, the generals said, the reinforcements of the traitors suddenly ran away for some reason after approaching the distance of about thirty miles from the hanging gourd, this move is too strange, probably to trick the officers and soldiers to relax their vigilance, so everyone must take turns to be on duty these nights, just in case.

So the generals said so, and then they rested in the warm tents, and only the hapless soldiers were arranged to spend the night behind the barracks, wearing iron armor, and the cold was unusually cold, even if they were wrapped in bedding, they could not warm up.

Everyone slept with A, where to sleep well, plus someone snored, snoring like thunder, many people tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, so they could only cover their ears and close their eyes to recuperate.

In order to shelter from the wind and snow, they slept under the thatched hut, even if the weather was cold, they could not make a fire to keep warm, lest the sparks ignite the thatch and cause a fire, and many people were thirsty and wanted to drink water but could not drink it, because the water in the jug was too cold, and it was easy to get sick when drinking.

Fighting is like this, eating and sleeping in the open, just get used to it, you can't make a fire in the middle of the night, you can only endure it until dawn if you are thirsty, but you can't bear it if you are in a hurry to pee and urine, you have to go to the pit for a trip.

At night, it is forbidden to light lamps and make fires in the barracks at will, especially at the barracks, so as not to illuminate their own people and facilitate the shooting of cold arrows by the enemy who sneaks in, so if you want to go to the pit, it is best to go with more than two people.

One more person and one more person to take care of, lest any of them fall into the pit and drown, and they have to bother their comrades to fish.

In the midst of the snoring, several dark shadows gathered together, and then walked towards the thatched pit in the distance, they were soldiers who went to the toilet together, although it was dark but there was white snow on the ground, so they could see the road, and slowly walked forward together.

Passing by an arrow tower, the restless sentry on the top of the building seemed to see a savior, and shouted to them in a low voice: "I said, whoever will take the post, I will go to the latrine." ”

"Hypocrisy, isn't it okay to pee on it? What will you do down? ”

"I'm going to!"

"Bastard, what do you do with so much for dinner! It's really lazy and pees! ”

"Hurry up! I can't hold it anymore! ”

The sentry clamped his legs and lifted his buttocks, and said with a crying voice, for some reason, he had a stomach trouble tonight, but he did not dare to leave his post without permission, for fear of being bumped into by the patrol governor, and hung it up in public and whipped it.

It is not easy to be a soldier in these years, many people do not have a few changes of clothes, in case they are pulled into the crotch of their pants and washed, they do not have to change, and the worst thing is that they will be ridiculed by their colleagues and thrown home in shame.

So the sentry could only endure the cold arrow tower, looking downstairs to see if anyone got up at night to go to the toilet and let the other party take his place, but when he couldn't hold back anymore, he finally looked forward to a savior.

A soldier scolded and climbed up the ladder, people have three urgency, colleagues can help if they are in difficulty, maybe when it is his turn to be on duty in the arrow tower, he is also anxious, and when the time comes, he will definitely look forward to someone to replace the guard.

When he was halfway up, he saw that the sentry had come down the ladder, which was very narrow, and the two of them had to be let go up and down, and the soldier saw this and said, "You are so anxious that you will die if you fall without paying attention!" ”

"I can't help it, work, work..."

After a "poof" sound on the top of his head, the soldier only felt a foul smell rushing towards him, and when he looked up, he was smeared by a bubble of rotten that fell on his head, and at that moment he only felt his stomach churning, and he screamed angrily:

"Goddamn bastard, you dare to shit in Lao Tzu..."

Before he finished speaking, his chest hurt, and the sentry above fell, and when he looked down, he saw an arrow stuck in his chest, and he was wearing crotch armor, which could be shot through by arrows, indicating that the archer was very close to him.

Looking outside the camp, he saw that there were many figures in gray cloth in the snow approaching this side, and the strength of his body disappeared out of thin air, and he let go of his hand and fell to the ground.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!" The shout sounded, it was the sentry of the arrow tower elsewhere shouting, and then the horn was blown, and at this moment, a violent explosion sounded, it was the Anzhou army attacking at night, throwing thunder at the camp fence.

The thunder shattered the quiet night sky, and the soldiers who were waiting behind the barracks awoke from their sleep, and immediately took up their weapons and rushed up to the barracks wall, only to assemble in a few moments, and bend their bows and arrows to meet the invading enemy.

However, they were first met with a head-on attack from the other side.

Many copper basins with polished inner walls as smooth as mirrors are facing the camp fence, and in front of the copper basin are paper cylinders filled with gunpowder, which are as thick as arms, and the top is full of dazzling firelight.

The light of the fire was reflected by the inner wall of the copper basin, and the light shone on the barracks, swaying the eyes of the soldiers behind the women's wall on the barracks.

The copycat version of the Tufa searchlight has limited brightness, but it forms a strong contrast between light and dark, so that the soldiers on the camp fence cannot see the people outside the camp, while the people outside the camp can clear and see the movement on the camp fence.

After a few rounds of arrows, the Anzhou archers who attacked from the hanging gourd suppressed the enemy soldiers on the camp fence, and the sound of horses' hooves sounded behind them, which was a war horse with a spiked horseshoe galloping through the mud, snow, ice, and water fields, dragging a special trench bridge towards the enemy camp.

The enemy dug a trench and surrounded the Hanging Gourd, thinking that by this they could block the cavalry assault in the Hanging Gourd City, and the special trench bridge could make these obstacles fail, and the bottom of the trench bridge was equipped with sleds, as many as twenty bodies, which were dragged by horses in the muddy field.

This was followed by a large number of cavalry.

Special trench bridges, special tactics, trapped in the hanging Anzhou army, tonight to launch a surprise attack, not only cavalry, but also infantry, the target of the attack, is the enemy's North Battalion, and tonight's attack, not only them.

On the east side of the Beida camp, there was a continuous explosion sound, which was the Tiger Forest Army after a hard trek, attacking the enemy camp from an incredible direction.

The Hulin Army, which was fully equipped with the ability to march and fight at night, was ordered by the King of Xiyang to set up camp thirty miles from the southern suburbs of Xuanjiao City, and entered the gap on the east side at night, and spent several days marching hard in the bone-chilling wind, cold river water and muddy Pitang, and successfully detoured back to the northeastern suburbs of Xuanjiao.

Before the appointed time came, lurk on the eastern outskirts of the enemy camp, wait for the south to launch an attack, and immediately enter the battle.

In the wind and snow, Xiyang Wang Yuwen Wen rode his horse to approach the North Daying, he led the troops to set off from the hanging gourd, and it was against the wind to the north, so he wore goggles like the soldiers, at this moment, looking at the enemy camp fence illuminated by the searchlight of the cottage, he couldn't help but hold the horsewhip.

The special trench bridge was quickly erected, and over the wide trench, over the dirt slope of Changwei, and directly outside the camp fence at the top of Changwei, many demomen with thunder on their backs stepped on the trench bridge and approached the camp gate under the cover of the sword player.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded like a tide, it was the Anzhou cavalry approaching the enemy camp, Yu Wenwen took a deep breath, ripped off the goggles that reflected the fog from sweat and hung it around his neck, and looked at the enemy camp again.

Beidaying is where the Chinese army of Wei Chidun's army is located, and it is also the place where Princess Yuwenwen and the prince are located.

Set off in advance to touch the archers outside the enemy camp, and at this time they shot rockets with all their might, and the rockets flew towards the huge enemy camp in the north wind, like fireflies flying in the sky, and a little fluorescent light was swept by the cold wind, which seemed to be stranded in the air, illuminating the camp at night.

Another round of explosions sounded, the camp fence collapsed in the firelight, Yu Wenwen, whose cheeks were red by the firelight, drew his saber and pointed at the enemy camp, the herald blew the horn, and then the horn sounded in the moving cavalry group.

It was the horn of the charge.

The so-called vigorous miracle, Yu Wenwen decided, since he wants to play, he will play a big game, concentrate his forces to attack inside and outside, and decide the battle in one battle.

By the way, save your wife and children!
