Chapter 985: Night Attack!

Crunch!

The south gate of Tunzhen suddenly opened, and more than 2,000 people held their breath, swarming out under the cover of night, entering the small woods in the south, and rushing straight towards the barracks of the Daijun soldiers!

They walked lightly, and before leaving the city, each of them was instructed by their own team leader and leader to take as little as possible and at the same time try their best to get close to the enemy barracks!

Wei Xiong spent two days studying the inspection rules of the Daijun barracks, briefly summarized the approximate exploration range of the enemy army, and selected this dark moon night to attack.

Coming out of the walls of Tunzhen, the soldiers ran in small steps, like a converging river, and soon crossed a clearing in the middle, where the grass was thick, and there was still some distance between it and the station of the Daijun soldiers.

However, as soon as they came out of the meadow, they were confronted by the patrol generals of the camp.

"Who?"

With a question, the scout in charge of hitting the front station suddenly burst out, and with a flash of cold in his hand, the dagger had already cut the throat of the patrolman.

The latter didn't even have time to scream, and fell to the ground, and the torch in his hand fell with it.

Not only this one, this person, on the same inspection line, at the same time, seven or eight inspectors had their throats cut, clearing a wave of obstacles, and at the same time, avoiding the risk of Wei Xiong and them being exposed immediately.

Behind the scouts, the soldiers who followed behind were silent and secretly praised, marveling at the ability of these scouts, and even more strongly admiring Wei Xiong, who had trained such characters.

Weixiong's troops and horses are mainly composed of Xianbei people, but it is difficult for Xianbei people to train scouts of such quality, not because they are not good at people, nor because they are negligent in training, but because they specialize in art and are good at field warfare, and they are not exquisite.

These scouts, after Wei Xiong's careful cultivation and training, used the Wei family's heirloom skills, and took out the means used to train the guards and dead soldiers in the family, which was the Wei family's advancement in the alien tribe.

With such a foundation, the power of these scouts can be imagined, not only the timing is accurate, but the movements are even more neat, without the slightest drag, to ensure the smooth progress of the army.

Soon, the second batch of inspections of the military guards fell down one after another.

"With these scouts here, we rushed to the barracks of that generation of county people, and they are still in a sweet dream!"

In a whispered discussion, the march of this army of night raiders and raiders became faster and faster.

It's just that Wei Xiong, including the leader of the army, didn't know that almost at the moment when the first batch of patrol soldiers fell, he had already been discovered by the Daijun military guards!

It turned out that the communication between these inspections was mostly based on the waving of torches in their hands, and different swinging movements and angles could be used to communicate, and the inspectors would confirm each other every once in a while.

However, relying on Chen Zhi's cultural education of the soldiers in the military camp, the thinking ability of ordinary soldiers has been improved, so a set of communication codes can be derived on the basis of this torch communication.

When the first patrols fell, the torches fell to the ground, either extinguished or dimmed, and this change was discovered when the next communication point arrived, and then it was fed back to the barracks, followed by the order from the Daijun camp.

If it weren't for the distance and the speed of Weixiong's soldiers and horses was not slow, I'm afraid that the second batch of fallen patrols would have been withdrawn.

On the other side, in the Daijun barracks, Chen Zhi, who had not slept for a while, summoned his staff as soon as he got the news, and at the same time ordered all the soldiers and horses to prepare for the attack.

Lieutenant Colonel Ran Zhan was even called directly to the main account.

"This group of thieves, not only did they not surrender, but they dared to attack the camp! What a fat gall! Even if it's that Tuoba Shan Yu, it is estimated that he doesn't have such a big courage! This Wei Xiong, what a guts! ”

Before Ran Zhan entered the tent, he couldn't help but shout, after all, he was woken up from his sleep, and the resentment in his heart was so strong that he could imagine it.

"Captain, be quiet, don't talk this nonsense later, ask the general for war directly, don't say anything else!" Gao who followed behind reminded loudly, "This night attack is not to be feared at all, the prince of the house has already had a backhand, not only is there no danger to me in the battle at this time, but it can also be valued by the king, and the merits of the war are even more good, for the captain, there is no harm!" ”

"Well, okay, so-and-so remembered!" When Ran Zhan heard this, he immediately agreed, he was obedient to Gao and could be said to be obedient, very trusting and respectful, knowing the ability of this subordinate, and sincerely assisting himself.

When the two of them walked into the camp one after the other, they heard the noise inside, and many staff members were talking, some were analyzing the situation, and some were giving strategies-

"If the enemy army moves at night, it must be attacking the camp."

"The order of Tuoba Shan Yu has not yet come, Wei Xiong will not retreat, nor surrender, there will be luck, our army reinforcements continue to come, blocking the road before and after, the more pressure Wei Xiong is in the city, if he does not take advantage of this time to act, there will be no chance."

"Such a dying struggle is simply self-defeating, as long as the two Qipin Xianbei soldiers and horses guarding outside attack, they can be disintegrated immediately!"

……

Everyone knew that time was urgent, and they spoke quickly.

Ran Zhan walked in quickly, looked around, and didn't see the figure of the beggar and bald rail, so he couldn't help frowning, worried that the two of them would go out to fight for merit.

At this moment, Chen Zhi, who was sitting at the top, waved his hand.

Immediately, the tent fell silent, and everyone looked at Chen Zhi intently, waiting for his instructions.

"You don't need to panic, the general has already made arrangements, just wait for that Wei Xiong to lead the troops to throw himself into the net, if he is stable and stubborn, he may have to delay for a few days, since he wants to do a surprise soldier, it is self-inflicted, it is indeed self-defeating."

When this sentence fell, everyone who was still a little flustered immediately calmed down, and the atmosphere changed.

Glancing at Ran Zhan and Gao Ju, who had just arrived, nodding slightly, Chen Zhi continued to everyone: "The enemy's night attack is not a bad thing, Tunzhen is the residence of the Tun soldiers, which is owned by Shanggu, it is the land of Youzhou, where the people and soldiers live, and many people fall into the hands of Wei Xiong, these are innocent people, if it is not necessary, I don't want to use the weapon of breaking the city, but besieging the city, the loss of troops will be inevitable, this camp is full of warriors who follow me out of the fortress, even the Murong clan has to bow their heads in the face of them, and they can still fall on their own land?" ”

Everyone nodded one after another, knowing that the siege weapon mentioned in Chen Zhi's words was actually the Pingxing cannon, which was like the power of heavenly thunder, many people had experienced it personally, even if they had not seen it, they had heard it described by others, and they longed for it.

In their opinion, if such a sharp weapon is against the low city wall of Shangtun Town, it is a knife to kill chickens, which is really a bit wasteful, and the Murong clan is a foreign clan, and the army is the first, it is logical to fight them, but the land of the troops is already the land of Youzhou controlled by Chen Zhi, if it is bombarded, it will be rebuilt afterwards, which is psychologically different.

"Ran Zhan, you go to rectify the men and horses, when the enemy army is defeated, lead the army to pursue, if you can capture Wei Xiong, you will be credited with a great achievement!"

"Huh?" Ran Zhan was stunned for a moment, puzzled in his heart, why was the enemy still on the way, so let me lead the army to pursue? But he was accustomed to obeying Chen Zhi, and he didn't say much, so he nodded and took the order, turned away, looked high and nodded secretly, although he didn't take the initiative to ask for battle, but this attitude was very good, and he saw the general's weight, and it was also a gain.
