Outside the city, the camp of the Huainan Army was full of laughter at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The tremendous power of the trebuchet during the day today made everyone present excited, and everyone had a smile on their faces.

"Ladies and gentlemen, it is a matter of time before Suzhou is taken now, why don't you have a banquet tonight and treat the soldiers?"

"Yes, since the siege of the city, everyone has taken turns to attack the city all day long, and the casualties are very large, and the morale is also a little low; Now that it is about to be successful, it is better to reward the soldiers, restore morale, and break through Suzhou in one fell swoop! ”

After returning to the camp, some generals proposed to hold a big banquet to celebrate, and it was obvious that in everyone's opinion, it was already an easy matter to take Suzhou.

Fortunately, there are still many sober-minded generals among the leading generals, such as Zhou Ben, who directly rejected this proposal at this time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, now is not the time to celebrate, you must know the major affairs of the country of soldiers, and you must not be careful! As long as Suzhou is not taken down for a day, everyone must not relax their vigilance! If something goes wrong before you are about to succeed, it will be difficult for everyone to explain to the king when you turn back! ”

After all, Zhou Ben is the main general, and he maintains the safety of his 30,000 people, so he can't be cautious.

"Yes, this banquet is still free!" Xu Wen also said: "Even if Suzhou is taken, there are still Jiaxing and Huzhou that we need to attack." If you want to celebrate, let's wait until you take Huzhou! ”

How could a cautious person like Xu Wen show a little flaw before achieving complete victory?

On the side, Yang Wu also smiled and said: "What General Xu said is reasonable, don't be busy celebrating first, besides, we have an important thing to do tonight." ”

When everyone heard this, they all looked at Yang Wu. During this time, Yang Wu's prestige in the army was increasing day by day, especially the trebuchet he took out, which made the generals admire his whimsy. At this time, seeing that he said that he still had important things to do, I wanted to hear his opinion.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you were the guard general Sun Yan, what decision would you make in the face of such a heavy bombardment of our army's trebuchets?"

"The last general will immediately open the city and surrender!" General Li Jian immediately said with a smile.

Li Jian is a native of Shangcai, brave and good at fighting, as the commander of the Ma Bu Army, he has followed Tian Yan, Tai Meng and other generals to establish meritorious careers. It's a pity that this person is cruel and easy to kill, and he is greedy, and Yang Wu doesn't like this person very much.

However, at this time, Li Jian's words made everyone present laugh suddenly, "Yes, in the current situation, what else can Sun Yan do except go out of the city and surrender?" ”

"Perhaps!" Yang Wu smiled, but immediately sank his face and said, "But if I were Sun Yan, I would definitely go out of the city tonight and attack at night to destroy our army's trebuchet!" ”

Everyone was stunned, and suddenly came to their senses, "The eldest son is talking ......"

"Yes, the eldest son is right to remind you, there is a great possibility that Sun Yan will go out of the city to attack tonight. Looks like we have to be prepared in advance! On the main seat, Zhou Ben immediately became serious.

"I wonder what advice the eldest son has?"

"The last general thinks that if we prepare well, tonight will not be a chance to inflict heavy damage on the enemy!"

"You mean ambushing enemy troops?"

"Yes, if the enemy wants to defend the city, he must go out of the city and destroy the trebuchet; As for the strength of the enemy's troops, the last general felt that it was better to anticipate the enemy as wide as possible, and estimated the enemy army a little more, and the last general felt that the enemy army might have three or four thousand men out of the city to attack. Please also prepare in advance, if you can inflict heavy losses on the enemy army in one fell swoop, it will be easier to capture Suzhou next! ”

Three or four thousand people were about half of the enemy defenders, and according to Sun Yan's courage, it was possible to send so many people to attack.

Zhou Ben nodded again and again, "Eldest son, since it was your suggestion, then your people will be responsible for guarding the trebuchet tonight, and you must not leave an opportunity for the enemy to take advantage of." ”

"The last will obey! However, the last general thinks that it is better to transfer the trebuchet overnight, lest the enemy attack desperately and destroy the trebuchet, and it will take time for us to rebuild it at that time! Yang Wu clenched his fists and suggested.

"Well, let's move away!" Zhou Ben thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement, "As for the rest of the departments, they must be prepared, just wait for the arrival of the enemy army and find a way to surround the enemy army; Zhang Kezong, your task is the heaviest, tonight after the enemy army leaves the city, you will lead your command to attack quickly, responsible for cutting off the bridge for the enemy army to return to the city, and nail it there, you can't let a single soldier go back! Do you understand? ”

"The last general obeys!"

"Go ahead and get ready! If we play well tonight, maybe we can break the city tomorrow! After I go back, I will ask you for credit; But if someone goes wrong, Hugh blame will be ruthless! ”

The generals are awe-inspiring and dare not slack off in the slightest, after all, now is the critical moment to break the enemy, and everyone will be careful.

Upon returning to his tent, Yang immediately gathered his subordinates and began to transfer trebuchets while digging trenches and arranging defenses.

Fortunately, there was no moonlight that night, and under the dark night, he couldn't see his five fingers, and the movement of the Huainan army under the city was not detected by the enemy at all.

"Childe, did you say that the enemy army will really leave the city tonight?" Seeing that his soldiers were desperately digging trenches, Fan Yu couldn't help but ask in a low voice.

"I don't know, maybe I will, maybe I won't! But I'm sure the enemy will be out of town tonight! Yang Wu replied with a smile.

"In that case, why didn't Gongzi take the opportunity to attack the city like he did last time he attacked Kunshan?"

"There is no need, if the number of enemy troops out of the city is small, then we will take the opportunity to attack the city, but I am afraid that it will not work; If there are a large number of people going out of the city, then as long as we eliminate the enemy troops out of the city, Suzhou is also ours, so why bother to do it many times? ”

Tonight's ambush was originally a gamble, but if they win the bet, they can have a huge gain, and if they lose, there will be no loss, at most, the soldiers will work hard in vain, but it is really insignificant compared to the gain after winning the bet. In that case, why not gamble?

In fact, at this time, Sun Yan in the city had already decided to go out of the city and attack at night, but there were more troops than Yang Wu thought, and Sun Yan brought out of the city tonight There were 6,000 people!

However, the night when they couldn't see their fingers not only covered their movements, but also caused them a lot of trouble.

Sun Yan originally planned to divide his troops to go out of the city through the two gates in the north of the city, but because it was too dark, he was worried that it would not be easy to concentrate his troops after dividing the troops, so he finally went out of the city through one city gate.

The consequence of this was that when crossing the moat, the soldiers crowded with each other, and many were squeezed off the bridge and fell into the water; Later, when crossing the moat and regrouping, for fear of being discovered by the enemy, Sun Yan did not dare to make a loud noise, let alone light the torches, and as a result, the formation of each battalion was chaotic.

Sun Yan couldn't help but have a headache, but he was already out of the city, and he could only go all the way at this time.

When approaching the trebuchet position arranged by the Huainan Army during the day, a rocket suddenly rose into the air on the opposite side, dazzling, like a meteor piercing the sky, followed by the war drums sounding in unison, the Huainan Army position lit a large number of torches, illuminating the battlefield as if it were daytime, before the Suzhou Army soldiers reacted, the overwhelming rockets rose from the Huainan Army position, and then fell into the Suzhou Army camp, the fire quickly ignited, and the smoke accompanied by the flames, almost instantly enveloped the surroundings.
