In the past three days, Ke Sin and Jinzhi, who stayed in the camp, have only shown off their military might like a routine, whether it is a general or a soldier, they are all holding an optimistic attitude at the moment, and the royal court will be broken, which is almost a consensus reached by everyone.
Outside the main camp, several night patrol cavalry roamed aimlessly outside the joint camp, alerting for possible enemies.
Farther away, in the darkness that the scouts couldn't reach, there was a crowd of horses at the moment, and tens of thousands of war horses were barely maintaining their formation in the night under the control of 5,000 soldiers.
Night battles, for Lu Bu, are already commonplace, cold and faint eyes, staring at the brightly lit camp in the distance, like a wolf staring at its prey, quietly lurking in the dark, occasionally a Xianbei knight unexpectedly approached, and would be shot by the archers lying in the dark.
"Chief, when are we going to attack?" A Xianbei general's eyes flashed with excitement at this moment, and he looked at Lu Bu.
"Don't worry, wait until the second half of the night, at that time, the awareness of precaution in people's hearts will be reduced to the lowest, and at that time, it is the best time, night raids are a science." Lu Bu shook his head and stared at Xianbei's formation.
Some people say that the Saiwaihu people are just barbarians, do not know the art of war, and are not afraid, such remarks are sometimes inaccurate or with discriminatory views, and the nomads may not be as brilliant as the Central Plains culture in terms of cultural breadth and heritage, and they do not have many such as the Art of War and the Art of War of Wu Zi left by the ancestors of the Han people, which have formed a complete system after hundreds of years or even thousands of years of inheritance, and highly summarized doctrines to teach future generations.
But it must not be said that the Hu people are really vulnerable, and the Hu people's tactics really have no merit, precisely because the Hu people do not have the art of war, these ready-made things, so that the Hu people often do not be constrained by rules and regulations, really fight, you will find that many times the Hu people fight, imaginative, will not play cards according to common sense, their combat experience, that is really summed up in actual combat again and again, in exchange for life.
Among the Hu people, the generals who are really good at fighting, the level of command and command is often above the ordinary generals of the Han people, these generals are killed from the battlefield, although they have not been studied in the orthodox art of war, but they have their own set of fighting methods, the way is very wild, but often effective.
Just like right now, the five major tribes are jointly operated, if they are in the Central Plains, let alone five families, even two joint ventures, there will be loopholes, but Lu Bu looked here for a long time, but he did not find obvious loopholes, and even the scouts who patrolled the night were arranged very well.
Thinking about the huge scale of the Eighteenth Route Princes' joint venture, Lu Bu can now understand why Dong Zhuo dared to compete with the princes of the world at the beginning.
Compared with the camp like the Hu people, the joint ventures at that time were uneven, not to mention that they still had ghosts and stumbles on each other, and the Xianbei people, even if they had contradictions in private, would not joke about the interests of the whole, they may not know how many ways to write the word survival, but they really understand the true meaning of these two words.
Of course, if you look at it from the top figures, the military strategists of the Central Plains are even better, because they are standing on the shoulders of their predecessors, summing up their own things from the experience of their predecessors, and no longer sticking to the routines of their predecessors, but the core is actually no different, this is the so-called Tao.
Cao Cao realized his own way in his later years, so with Meng De's new book, Lu Bu guessed that the new word was the core of Cao Cao's thoughts, but unfortunately, Zhang Song, the ugly ghost of the loser, this masterpiece has not been handed down.
In the previous life, Lu Bu crisscrossed the shopping mall, saying that the shopping mall is like a battlefield, which is not bad in a certain aspect, and the descendants are determined to seek innovation and change, but they really seek a circle, change a circle, and when they reach a certain height, they will gradually find that everything changes will not deviate from their origins, in fact, the new and change they seek have already been handed down by the predecessors, but they did not understand it when they were young, and when they really realized the Tao, they looked back and looked at it, but it was like a joke.
Today's Lu Bu has not yet reached the realm of Cao Cao, but in his previous life, he was used to taking the sword sideways, because in such a highly competitive era, it is almost impossible to get ahead by virtue of his grassroots background if he does not take a strange path at the age of thirty.
And after crossing into this world, along the way, he has always been small and broad, so he has his own opinions on the wonder of the art of war, or said.
But this is just a sword to go to the front, the art of war has clouds, to coincide, to win, Lu Bu in the word Qi, has almost walked out of his own way, but with the growing power of his power, the word Qi, after all, can not be held for a long time, the sword goes to the front, although every time you can get huge benefits, but as long as you take a wrong step, it is accompanied by the corresponding risk.
Thinking about these things in his heart, Lu Bu always paid attention to the movements of the Xianbei people, the route and time of those scouts had been explored by Lu Bu, and time was also passed bit by bit in this quiet, but depressing long wait.
Lu Bu is not worried about whether these 5,000 soldiers will be able to adapt to this night battle, in the past three days, under Lu Bu's deliberate arrangement, almost all of them have been out of the day and night, and they have become accustomed to marching at night, and the biological clock has also been turned upside down in these three days, which is the best state of the night battle.
After midnight, it was obvious that the soldiers who were patrolling the night began to become scattered, and the number was gradually decreasing, and at the same time, there were many fewer torches in the joint venture.
"Come closer, remember, don't make too much noise." Lu Bu said in a deep voice.
"My lord, do you want to attack?" Several Xianbei generals were already impatient to wait, and they couldn't help but feel good when they heard the words.
"No hurry, wait." Lu Bu shook his head, now is not the best time, approaching, just to better observe the situation in the camp.
Little by little, when the third watch came, many of the torches burning in the barracks were extinguished by themselves, and at the same time, there were only one or two teams of soldiers patrolling outside the camp who occasionally galloped by.
"Wudang." Lu Bu turned his head and glanced at Wudang, who took the bow and arrow on his back, and led a team of people to get off the war horse and quietly enter the camp.
The cluster of cold arrows shot through the throat of the already sleepy soldier on the watchtower, Lu Bu chose the time period with the largest interval between the patrol soldiers, and the approach of the group did not arouse alarm.
"Kill!" At the moment when the gate slowly opened, Lu Bu's eyes flashed, he raised the heaven-shaking bow, and with a high shout, the five thousand army began to charge towards the gate.
Ten thousand horses galloped, less than five miles of distance seems very far, but when the speed of the war horse is completely open, it is almost the time of tea, Lu Bu has already rushed into the gate, the heaven-shaking bow flicked, a brazier was thrown high, and fell on a certain tent, igniting the fire in an instant, and then the five thousand cavalry came with the momentum of the charge, directly broke into the tent, a soldier who had just been awakened had not time to resist, the oncoming scimitar had already wiped their necks, and more, but they were directly trampled to death by countless iron hooves in their sleep.
This time, it was not only 5,000 cavalry that came with it, but also another 5,000 war horses, and at this time, it was no different from cavalry.
"Kill!" Lu Bu hooked up a brazier and directly ignited the stables, and countless startled war horses began to run around, directly knocking over many tents, which further aggravated the chaos of the camp.
The five thousand iron cavalry did not love to fight, and directly under the leadership of Lu Bu, they rushed all the way from the south gate to the north gate, and then turned their horses' heads and charged west again.
Ke Sin and Qujin Zhitu were awakened in their sleep, each brought up a weapon, grabbed a war horse, and began to command the soldiers to counterattack, but unfortunately, at this time, the entire military camp fell into chaos, Lu Bu divided the troops into more than a dozen units, and began to continuously impact the five major tribe warriors gathered.
"Kill!" A Xianbei general saw that Ke Sin and went to Jinzhitu to gather a lot of people here, and rushed up directly with people.
"Look for death!" A touch of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, and the mace in his hand was smashed with a stick, and before the Xianbei general could react, his muscles and bones were shattered, and he vomited blood and flew out.
"Sons, kill!" Qu Jinzhi suddenly raised his mace, howling angrily, and at this moment, an astonishing chill surged into his heart, almost instinctively wanting to dodge sideways, but he felt a chill in his heart, looked down, and looked at a cold arrow protruding from his chest in disbelief.
Seeing this, Ke Sin pounced on the ground without thinking, and an arrow cluster broke through the air, and in the miserable neighing of the war horse, the thick neck was directly shot through by the arrow cluster, and the cold arrow cluster was inserted upside down at Ke Sin's distance from Ke Sin, which frightened Ke Sin cold.
"Withdraw! Fall back! Ke Sin craned his neck, and in a terrible roar, he ran and crawled in the direction of the south gate, which was the direction in which Lu Bu rushed in, and it was also the direction with the least enemy troops at the moment.
"Want to go!?" Lu Bu sneered, put an arrow cluster on the bowstring again, and as soon as his fingers loosened, the arrow cluster broke through the air again.
"Be careful, King!" At the same time as Lu Bu shot arrows, a Xianbei warrior swooped up and stopped behind Ke Sin, and the fierce arrows shot straight into his chest, passing through the hall, and the huge inertia smashed towards Ke Sin with his body.
"Poof!" The moment his body smashed on Ke Sin's back, the cluster of arrows that came out from behind also pierced Ke Sin's body, Ke Sin's eyes widened in astonishment, he looked ahead blankly, and fell to the ground fiercely under the impact of huge inertia.
"I am the general of the royal court, Temujin, you and other leaders are treacherous, attack the royal court without authorization, and kill Budugen with despicable tricks, and now that the royal court army has been killed, do you still have to resist!?" Lu Bu twisted off the head of Qujin to stop vomiting, and the tiger's eyes were full of murderous intent: "Your leader is dead, and you still don't surrender!?" (To be continued.) )
