Chapter 59: Night Attack (Two Chapters in One)

South of Dulong Mountain, northwest of Liangshanbo, shrouded in the night, a little bit of fire presents the shape of plum blossoms, sitting under the light of the stars and moon. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

These sparse and stretched fires are the camps set up by Lin Chong.

There was a small battalion of 500 people, and the people of the two villages of 1,500 people were grouped into three battalions in the middle.

With the drainage ditch, the deer and the horse are the boundary, and then set up a fence more than five feet high outside the wall, and there is a ditch buried with bamboo sticks outside the fence, which can be described as heavily guarded.

The 3,000 recruits of the Liangshan Army set up six camps in a battalion unit, which were distributed in a hexagonal shape on the six corners of the periphery, and tightly guarded the three small battalions in the middle.

If one can take a bird's-eye view from mid-air, they will see that the whole camp has a very nice plum blossom shape.

The bonfires and the stars in the sky complement each other, giving people a fantastical beauty.

However, Luan Tingyu, who was in a camp in the east of due north, had no intention of appreciating this beautiful scenery at the moment, but was anxious.

God forbid, Zhu Biao, I wish the two muddy balls of the tiger don't be enthusiastic tonight, come to rob the camp!

Luan Tingyu can be regarded as a five-body surrender to the "Lin Leopard".

To say that he didn't regard Zhujiazhuang as an opponent at all when he said to Lin Bao before, and stepping on Zhujiazhuang was as simple as picking up things, Luan Tingyu was still a little skeptical.

But since seeing the three hundred cavalry and one hundred heavily armored and heavy axe soldiers coming down from Liangshan, Luan Tingyu completely changed this idea.

Straight lady thief, the weapons and equipment of this Liangshan Army are too good!

Three hundred cavalrymen, all of whom wore helmets and armor, were neatly tied, and their equipment was luxurious to the extreme.

Let's talk about war horses first, each of the three hundred war horses is a high-shouldered, broad-backed, muscular high-headed horse, which is more than a head taller than the mounts that everyone usually sees used for transportation.

It's even better than the horses that the Zhu family spent a lot of money to ask for from the Liao Kingdom in the north, I really don't know where this forest leopard is sacred, and he has such the ability to get so many BMW horses?

These mounts are all armored, although they are only leather armor, but they will also cover the whole body tightly, unless they are engaged in close combat, otherwise ordinary bows and arrows are not afraid at all.

However, as a light horseman, it is natural that they will not easily fight the enemy in close hand-to-hand combat, not to mention, there will be three hundred elite knights wearing iron armor and fully armed to the teeth.

These three hundred knights, all of them are dressed in iron armor, chest guards, arm guards, leg guards, iron boots, heart covers, neck guards, hoods, iron masks, all available.

This is when the horse battle rushes into battle, it covers the complete heavy armor, and when the battle is engaged, it is like a moving fortress.

But what shocked Luan Tingyu even more was that the armor leaves used in these armors were all extravagant and cold-forged, and the leaves were densely covered with scabs, which made people feel terrible at a glance.

Qingtang Poor Son, Qingtang Poor Child! It turned out to be a fake Qingtang Monkey Armor!

Rao is Luan Tingyu doesn't know much, and he also knows that these cold-forged armor leaves are far stronger than ordinary armor, and the armor leaves are half thinner than the standard step armor of the Great Song Dynasty.

The defense is higher, but the armor is much lighter to move, which is an unparalleled advantage in the battle array.

Each of these armors is enough to be used as a heritage treasure of a family of military generals, but in the Liangshan army, it is the standard armor of the cavalry!

Luan Tingyu was almost stupid at once, but this is not over, excluding the armor, the weapons of these three hundred knights are also luxurious to the point of madness.

Needless to say, the long weapon is either a spear or a big knife, or an iron rod and mace, but the secondary weapon is a unified Uzi steel treasure knife!

Lin Bao also deliberately asked someone to take one of his swords to show him, it was really not an ordinary hand knife, nor was it a hundred refining knife, but an Uzi steel treasure knife that was better than the iron sword!

Each one is at least a few hundred times, and the Uzi steel treasure sword, which ordinary warriors can't buy with money, is just a cavalry standard secondary weapon in the Liangshan army!

Luan Tingyu suddenly had an illusory and unreal feeling, Liang Shanjun's equipment was too good.

But that's not all that shocked him.

In addition to these long and short hand-to-hand weapons, each knight was also equipped with two divine arm bows, a riding bow with eight buckets, a pot of tailless short arrows with a divine arm bow, and a pot of long arrows with white feathers used for riding bows.

Divine arm bow, the Great Song Dynasty military weapon divine arm bow, the entire Yunzhou official army doesn't know if there is a god arm bow, and the Liangshan army is equipped with two of them!

Luan Tingyu couldn't believe his eyes, he was a thief, he was only afraid of the official family's personal soldiers, and he didn't necessarily have such luxurious and luxurious equipment!

In addition to the cavalry, there are also a hundred heavy axemen, although there are not many, but these hundred heavy axemen are fully equipped with two layers of heavy armor, using the long-handled heavy axe special for the elite forbidden army of the Great Song Dynasty.

The warriors of these heavy axe soldiers are all tall men like iron towers, and at first glance they are powerful, with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and they can run horses on their arms, and they can stand up in their fists.

Luan Tingyu even felt that with these 400 elite soldiers, the Liangshan army didn't even have to fight, just lined up these 400 elite soldiers in front of the Zhuang guests in Zhujiazhuang.

It can scare these rabble, who have never undergone formal training and have never experienced real warfare, so that they can't afford to resist at all!

If you can, Luan Tingyu really wants to rush out immediately, rush to Zhujiazhuang, and tell Zhu Biao that they must not come to die.

But at this time, he was tied up by Lin Chong's order, stuffed with cloth in his mouth, and sent two soldiers to guard one left and one right.

"I said brother, we have been in ambush for so long, so the birdmen of Zhujiazhuang won't dare to come, right?"

In a dense forest near the northeast of the campsite, Lu Zhishen was wearing a Qingtang Monkey Armor and a hood on his head, and said a little impatiently.

"It should come, that Zhu Biao is a character who refuses to suffer, now that he has lost the advantage of Lin Pantuo Road, and I have taken away so many tenants and people at once, I think with his character, he will definitely come."

In the original Water Margin story, Zhujiazhuang likes to engage in night attacks.

After Yang Xiong, Shi Xiu, and Shi Qian set fire to Zhujia's store, it didn't take long for countless Zhuang guests to arrive and catch Shi Qian by scratching the hook trap; After that, Song Jiang beat Zhujiazhuang, and Zhujiazhuang attacked at night, making Song Jiang cry and call his mother.

His own team passed through the villages on the outskirts of Zhujia, and the 3,000 people were all recruits, and the equipment was not good, and the people along the way looked at it; In addition, there are more than 1,000 people, women and children.

With Zhu Biao's proud temperament, if he didn't dare to come, then Lin Chong would be impressed by him.

"Actually, if you want me to say, why bother with such trouble, brother, you should write a letter to ask us to take all the elite soldiers down the mountain and directly step on this bird Zhuangzi!

Why do you have to wait a month, but you are not in a hurry to die? ”

Lu Zhishen was an impatient, and he didn't understand why Lin Chong did this, in his mind, with the current equipment and training level of the Liangshan Army, it was completely possible to fight directly in one battle.

After Lin Chong left, Lu Zhishen worked very hard to train recruits during this time, and he could take this opportunity to show Lin Chong the success of the training, but he didn't know that this junior brother was a chronic son.

Lin Chong smiled, and the entire Liangshan, Lu Zhishen dared to complain to himself.

For this senior brother who is a little rude and impatient, but has a kind and enthusiastic temperament, Lin Chong also patiently explained to him: "Senior brother, it is simple to defeat Zhujiazhuang, but after defeating, isn't it prematurely exposed to strength?"

Moreover, most of the recruits on the mountain are now recruited, so we can just attack Zhujiazhuang for training, so that every recruit has the opportunity to come to the battlefield in advance......"

Before Lin Chong's words were finished, he heard a rapid and subtle footsteps coming from the direction of due north, Lin Chong quickly stopped to explain and looked up.

I saw a thin scout running towards this side like a fly, and in front of Lin Chong, who came not long ago, he gasped and said, "Lord, here!" ”

"How many are there?"

"I can't see it clearly, but there are three or four thousand people in Wuyang, to say the least......"

Lin Chong came to the spirit at once, so many people, since they can come to participate in the night attack, they must be strong and healthy young men, if they can be caught, the Liangshan army will be able to have a lot of soldiers.

As for those with the surname Zhu, they were sent to Liangshan to do hard labor, just as Liangshan had a new foundation, and it was necessary to build various fortifications, open up wasteland, and build ships...... There are too many people needed, and these hardest and most tiring tasks are left to these people to do well.

"The order goes down, everyone begins to check the equipment, weapons, cavalry on horseback, ready for battle!"

One by one, the heralds whispered orders, and the four hundred elite soldiers in ambush moved at once.

The cavalrymen got on their horses with the help of the auxiliaries, and these carefully trained horses and horses were also excited when they were about to fight, and many of them wanted to neigh, but found that the horse's mouth was strangled.

The horses became more and more irritable, but they were pressed down by the crotch of the horseman, and they held on to the reins, so they had to raise their heads and hooves impatiently, and spew long white gas in their noses, and they wanted to rush out immediately.

At this time, the army of people, Malekou, and 4,000 Zhuangke had also quietly approached the camp where the Liangshan army was located.

Zhu Biao, Zhu Hu rode two good horses from the north and walked in the front, seeing that in addition to dozens of soldiers standing guard on the wall, the entire camp was quite quiet, and it was obvious that the other people had fallen asleep at the moment.

Zhu Biao's heart couldn't help but feel a little proud, the art of war is cloudy, and it is unprepared to attack it unprepared, isn't this just a surprise attack on it? The art of war is only essential!

Everything is foreseen, and if you don't prepare, you will be wasted, with no intention to calculate, sneak attack in the dark, set fire to the wind, and kill him by surprise, if you don't win, it will be unreasonable.

Seeing that the two hundred archers had quietly approached less than a stone's throw from the wall, they had begun to bend their bows and arrows.

But the soldiers standing guard on the wall seemed to be asleep, and they didn't notice it at all, and Zhu Biao's heart jumped up with excitement.

"Ignite, attack!"

With an order, Zhu Biao had already begun to anticipate the next script in his heart, two hundred archers first shot the soldiers standing guard with arrows, and at the same time, thousands of torches were lit together, and then rockets were launched downwind.

The wind helps the fire, and the whole camp will fall into a sea of fire, and then take advantage of the chaos to kill from three directions, and will definitely be able to kill this gang of Liangshan thieves......

Thousands of torches were lit together, and in front of them, the two hundred archers were all as open as the full moon, and the arrows were like shooting stars, and the soldiers standing guard on the wall were shot one after another.

Zhu Biao was overjoyed, but then he chuckled in his heart, and an ominous premonition arose.

Wrong! How is it that an arrow strikes a man and there is no scream? How is it that none of these soldiers, who were hit by several arrows, fell?

"Oh no, we've been tricked, it's a scarecrow!" The banker who was shooting arrows in front also noticed that something was wrong and shouted loudly.

The crowd panicked, and Zhu Biao was also stunned, he didn't expect that the Liangshan dog thief would be prepared for it at all......

At this moment, the sound of shouting and killing was heard shaking the earth, and countless people suddenly appeared from behind the wall, and then crossbow arrows rained down.

The two hundred most elite archers of Zhujiazhuang suddenly fell like wheat harvesting.

When Zhu Biao was shouting not to mess up, he heard a sudden rumbling sound from the diagonal rear on both sides, which was as frightening as summer thunder.

The earth trembled, Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu were suddenly shocked, and hurriedly turned around to look, only to see two teams of knights rushing towards this side like two unstoppable torrents.

Immediately, the knight was dressed in heavy armor, tightly wrapped, and the mount under the crotch was vigorous, spitting out a long white gas, and the whole knight was like a moving steel fortress, just ignoring it, and rushing towards it with murderous energy.

Zhu Biao and Zhuhu stared blankly at the two rushing steel torrents, looking at the killing machines wrapped in steel one by one, and an unstoppable fear was inexplicably born in his heart.

Although they haven't tried it, the two of them just feel like this, and they can't afford to resist at all!

Zhu Biao and the others were still like this, and the other villagers, who were actually farmers in essence, were even more unbearable, and before these knights could rush over, a terrified shout suddenly erupted among them.

"Ahh~~"

Before Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu could give an order to restrain the team, these thousands of villagers rioted.

Some people unconsciously threw away the weapons in their hands, turned their heads and ran back, even if there were the camps and archers of the Liangshan Army behind them, they couldn't care about it at this time, but they subconsciously wanted to stay away from these steel torrents.

Others were completely frightened, just standing still, shouting in horror; A few quick-minded ones are running out in both directions with all their might, roaring loudly and hysterically with the same hysterical in their mouths.

"Zhu Xiao'er, quickly dismount and be bound, so that you don't die!"

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Lin Chong was also excited, he took off his face armor, pointed at Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu with the eight snake spears in his hand, and shouted loudly.

"Third brother, what should I do?" Zhu Hu asked in horror.

"What else can I do, run!"

Zhu Biao's eyes turned red, and his anger almost burst out of his head, but he was not completely brainless.

He knew that everyone on his side had lost their hearts, the enemy was in ambush on all sides, and he could not win the battle, so he had to run first.

The two brothers didn't care about the lives of their subordinates, so they fled west with fifty or sixty horsemen around them.

When Lin Chong saw it, he raised the snake spear in his hand and shouted: "Kneel and don't kill!" The rest will be killed! ”

"Kneel and don't kill! The rest will be killed! ”

The three hundred cavalry, as well as the hundred heavy axemen who were lined up behind the three hundred cavalry and advanced like a wall, echoed in unison.

"Kneel and don't kill! The rest will be killed! ”

On the wall, there are also young recruits who rushed out of the wall, and they roared excitedly like thunder, and the sound shook the sky.

Lin Chong kicked the horse's belly violently, and the crotch of the horse raised the speed to the maximum, and chased after Zhu Biao and Zhu Hu in the direction of escape.
