Chapter 642: Night Attack (I)
"What do you want? Everyone is happy, but you are sad. Cheng Chumo patted Chen Fei's shoulder, his mouth was grinning, obviously very happy.
"Brother Chu Mo, don't you think it's a little abnormal?"
"What's wrong?" Cheng Chumo glanced at the enemy's military camp in the distance indifferently, and said: "It's just a group of local chickens and dogs that have been put together temporarily, and now that Tubo has withdrawn, it is estimated that the rest will be evacuated in a short time." ”
"That's not right!" Chen Fei shook his head slightly, pointed to the enemy's camp and said, "Brother Chu Mo, you see, the enemy's camp is clearly stationed in a combined formation, and looking at the momentum, it is to besiege us. Obviously, I suffered a big loss today, but I don't want to give up so easily. ”
Cheng Chumo nodded: "Yes, the enemy may indeed have this kind of thought." ”
Chen Fei pointed again, pointing to the evacuated Tubo army and said: "But the Tubo army has withdrawn, and it is very suspicious if these coalition forces do not withdraw." The Tibetan army, to say the least, had 30,000 men, accounting for one-third of the coalition army. Moreover, the combat strength of the Tubo people is far from being comparable to these miscellaneous armies that have gathered together. These two or thirty thousand Tibetan soldiers may not necessarily suffer against the remaining coalition forces. Such a strong force of combat power withdrew, and the remaining enemies were actually indifferent. Don't you think it's a little weird?
They want to surround us, but with 50,000 men they will not be able to take our city. So what's the point of their encirclement? Could it be that you want to wait for the reinforcements of my court to come and destroy these people? ”
After Chen Fei's explanation, Cheng Chumo finally sensed that something was wrong, as Chen Fei said, although the remaining enemies were slightly more numerous, their combat effectiveness was not very powerful, they were surrounded and did not leave, did they still want to attack themselves? Otherwise, why keep it? It's better to withdraw together.
But with the combat effectiveness of these soldiers, it is impossible to shake the city, so the situation is as Chen Fei said, it seems very strange.
When this strange situation appears on the battlefield, it is immediately necessary to pay attention to it. At first, Cheng Chumo thought it was nothing, but after Chen Fei's analysis, he immediately became solemn.
Daddy is a generation of famous generals, as Daddy's first cub, Cheng Chumo is naturally not a military idiot, on the contrary, he has a very keen sense of military smell, and he analyzed two situations almost instantaneously.
"First, the Tibetan army is really withdrawing, as for the willingness of the Western Regions coalition forces not to retreat, maybe they still have backup, I was guessing just now that the coalition army should be more than this number.
Second, the withdrawal of the Tibetan army is fake, and it is true to confuse us, and it is very likely that this is to confuse us, and after we relax, we will kill a horse gun in the middle of the night! ”
Chen Fei nodded: "It's similar to what I thought, it seems that no matter what, tonight is very critical, we must strengthen the garrison, and we can't let the enemy sneak attack!" ”
Cheng Chumo nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I will arrange it, and I will definitely let the enemy have no chance!" ”
Chen Fei looked at the enemy in the distance and sighed: "That's the best!" This war came so suddenly, we were able to hold the city because we were lucky, and if you had come two days late, I am afraid that the situation would not have been the case at all. ”
Cheng Chumo also nodded, expressing deep agreement. "Yes, if I come two days late, the city will not be in anyone's hands now."
The two looked at each other and smiled, sometimes fate is so magical, if Yin Ping didn't have the inspiration to send someone to keep an eye on it, I'm afraid he wouldn't have caught the person who took the medicine behind, and Chen Fei naturally wouldn't report the matter of addiction to medicine and the Holy Mother Sect to the imperial court.
It is possible that Cheng Chu Mo would not have come, and if Cheng Chu Mo had not come, he would not have brought a thunderbolt, and this battle array would inevitably be much more difficult, and it may have fallen into the hands of the enemy now.
Fate is a strange round wheel, connecting all the otherwise impossible things together, and it is only amazing and wonderful.
After a short cheer, the Tang army immediately went into a state of alert, and everyone was told that the enemy was very likely to attack at night tonight, and asked the soldiers to change the guard in turn to ensure a tight defense and not let the enemy seize the opportunity.
The camp where the enemy was stationed was not far away, and it was visible from afar, and the soldiers naturally did not dare to be careless, and the people standing on the city wall were firmly staring at the open space that they had eaten, or whether there was any change in the enemy's camp.
It's a pity that until midnight, the enemy camp was pitch black, and there was no movement at all.
The soldiers on the city walls gradually let their guard down.
When it's ugly, it's the most sleepy time of the night. Friends who often stay up late to sing K must have had such a feeling, and when it comes to two to three o'clock in the middle of the night, they will inevitably be sleepy and want to sleep, but once they get through this point, the sleepiness will suddenly dissipate by half.
Now the soldiers are at this "most difficult point", standing on the city wall, under the flickering torches, looking at the dark night sky in front of them, sleepy.
Some of the soldiers who were not strong in their willpower had closed their eyes and leaned against the walls, their heads dozing off little by little.
At this moment, a faint flash of fire flashed in the camp of the coalition army, but it quickly recovered, and the soldiers on the city wall a few miles away did not notice it at all.
Under the flickering firelight, a group of thousands of soldiers was assembled, all of them changed into black clothes, and in the low shouts of the generals, the team of thousands of people quietly set off towards the city wall.
In less than half an hour, a procession of thousands of people had arrived five hundred meters below the city.
The team lined up, and the generals walked past the soldiers, whispering what to do next, and after walking through, the team of thousands of people suddenly sped up. Lined up and rushed towards the city.
When they were a hundred meters away from the city, everyone picked up their bows and arrows and unleashed round after round of arrows at the sleepy soldiers on the city wall.
"Ahh The screams of the first soldier who were hit by the arrow suddenly woke up the dozing people on the city walls.
But by the time they came to their senses, it was too late. Countless arrows were fired at them in a dense manner, and before they could react, several people were shot into a sieve, and many were injured by arrows.
The Tang army suddenly let out a wail, and the Tang army, which was still moving, immediately leaned on the city wall to avoid the rain of arrows, and at the same time shouted loudly to inform the others.
The drums on the city tower sounded loudly, and the Tang troops stationed under the city walls woke up one after another, and rushed up from below with weapons.
Because they didn't know the situation above, many Tang troops who had just rushed up did not do any protection, and faced the rain of arrows, and a number of them were killed and wounded.
The Tang army in the back was prepared to rush to the wall with shields, which reduced casualties.
Chen Fei's face turned pale, and he gave an order to the special forces: "Throw a thunderbolt fire at me and see how many enemies there are!" ”
