Chapter 488: Decide or Win at Night

The sky was slightly dark, and Zhao Xun asked Xu Le beside him: "How far is this place from Interpretation Curtain City?" ”

"Less than thirty miles!" In addition to detecting the situation ahead, Xu Le's forward battalion also had to inspect the terrain and announce the arrival of the Xiaoguo army to the surrounding towns and villages. Because the reputation of the Xiaoguo Army is still good, at least in the hearts of many people, they have saved the people of Youbei and recovered the territory.

"Less than thirty miles! Let's set up camp here! Zhao Xun said lightly.

"Now? It's still early! Xu Le looked at the sky and whispered.

Zhao Xun said with deep meaning: "It's early, but we have to leave a chance for this Qingyang Mansion army to attack!" If you look here, there are low forest slopes thousands of meters away on both sides, which are quite suitable for hiding. ”

"The lord is going to fight back against them!"

"Of course, it's not okay to be surrounded by a swarm of annoying flies! Xu Le, let the various departments of the Pro-Guard Army go and inspect it a few more times, and place some people there. If there are any more government troops beating gongs and drums tonight, when they finally leave, cut them off. Remember, let the brethren behave well, but don't be discovered at night. Go ahead! ”

"Subordinates understood!" Xu Le is not stupid, he immediately led people back and forth to inspect the mountains and forests on both sides again and again, it seems that he was harassed last night, and he is very uneasy about the surrounding situation.

"Wei Chen, near the camp gates on all sides, dig a big pit for me and prepare something for the incoming government army."

"What if the government army doesn't come?"

Zhao Xun smiled: "Don't come? Think of it as training! In addition to relying on battle, the progress of the Xiaoguo army also has to go through strict training, which should be regarded as wartime training for soldiers. ”

Zhao Xun couldn't say whether the government army was coming, but how did he feel that this government army would not let him attack the city head-on. Once he directly attacks the city, then the banner of his Xiaoguo army is enough to cause a certain response in the city. If they were trapped in the castle, they would only need to leave half of the men and horses to watch, and the rest of the cavalry would be able to take the two prefectures of Hirokawa and Tobu lightly. At that time, whether this curtain city has been taken or not is no longer important to the Xiaoguo army, how long can the lonely city be defended?

Zhang Qinyue really gathered an army and wanted to make a last stand, because as Zhao Xun said, he had no choice. Collect and collect, and the government army that he can still use to fight against the Xiaoguo Army is less than 6,000 people. Although the number of people is only one-fifth and one-sixth of the number of Xiaoguo Army, there are countless accidents in the war, and there are countless victories with less. Of course, Zhang Qinyue did not have much hope for the probability of winning more with less. Xiao Guojun sued him last night and during the day, and the other party was not a mediocre hand. And today's intelligence has been determined, and Zhao Xun, the commander of the Xiaoguo Army, is the commander of this army. Zhao asked who he was, he personally sent troops, and the guards around him can be imagined, in addition to the nearly 20,000 Jing troops who have been fighting, among the remaining 15,000 people, in addition to the auxiliary soldiers, the rest are definitely the elite of the elite.

However, Zhang Qinyue is not afraid, as a general, dying on the battlefield is a road that all soldiers may face. He hoped that he could really deal a heavy blow to the Xiaoguo Army, and it was best to bring something to Zhao Xun.

Because the Xiaoguo army patrolled the woods on the north and south sides back and forth, Zhang Qinyue did not dare to send people too early, so he could only wait for the Xiaoguo army to withdraw and return to the camp after dark before making arrangements. Although Xiao Guojun's current actions seem to be to prevent last night's incident from happening, Zhang Qinyue is still a little extremely uneasy, and always feels that Xiao Guo Jun has other tricks besides his patrol.

The night is deep, and the sky is dotted with stars, bringing a ray of light to the earth.

Zhang Qinyue once again arranged as last night, and asked the two of them to take more than 200 people to the north and south sides, only responsible for harassment. And the Xiaoguo army camp is also the same as yesterday, the bonfire is always bright.

The sound of drums, horns, and shouts of killing is in my ears, but the Xiaoguo army camp does not move at all, what should I do! After Zhang Han and Zhang Dao beat a drum, they had to retreat.

"My lord, this Xiaoguo army is not moved at all!" One of the soldiers said breathlessly.

Zhang Han's face was worried, and with the light of the Xiaoguo Army's camp and the starlight in the sky, he looked at the young soldiers around him and said, "It's okay, they are unmoved, and it is also expected by Lord Duwei, we just need to continue to harass." ”

The second drum beat and the shouting of killing came back half an hour later. Then for the third and fourth time, the time gradually came to an ugly time, and the tasks of Zhang Han, Zhang Dao and others should also be over, because according to the plan, the following is the surprise attack of the army on the east side. When the Xiaoguo army thought it was harassment, they carried out a surprise attack.

"Everyone, take a break, we're ready to evacuate." Zhang Han said in a deep voice.

"Poof......" A slight sound came into Zhang Han's ears, in the quiet night, such a sound was very sudden, but among the more than 200 people, it did not seem sudden. It's just that Zhang Han felt a trace of blood, which made him feel very weird.

After glancing at it, he didn't find anything unusual, because these soldiers were also tired from running back and forth carrying gongs and drums, and they were either doing or lying down to rest.

Gradually, Zhang Han felt that something was wrong, his subordinates were gasping less and less, and the surroundings were getting quieter and quieter. What made him feel even more hairy on his scalp was that the bloody aura was getting heavier and heavier.

"Not good! Assemble, brethren! Zhang Han exclaimed in a low voice.

However, what made Zhang Han creepy was that there were only more than 30 people around him who responded to him, and there was silence around him, and those who were lying on the ground to rest did not respond at all.

"Big ...... My lord...... This is ......," said the soldier beside Zhang Han in a trembling voice. In this pitch-black environment, the sudden sound and the fallen brothers were enough to make people's hairs stand on end.

"We are in ambush! Damn it! Throw down what you have in your hands, take out your weapons, and we'll get out! Zhang Han shouted.

"Withdraw? I only remember it now, it's too late! You want to leave after waiting here for most of the night, brothers? A cold voice came from all around.

"Who?" Zhang Han pulled out his long knife and shouted.

"Who? Are you really stupid or pretending to be stupid, who else do you say this place! Let you die and understand that we are the members of the Xiaoguo Army, and we have been waiting for you here for one night. Brothers, kill! ”

"Sigh Sigh ......" Arrow rain came from all directions, enveloping all the surviving government soldiers.

"It turned out that we were ...... determining our position", looking at the arrow shot from a position where he was standing before, Zhang Han whispered bitterly, and the crossbow arrow on his body pierced deeply into his body. He knew that Lieutenant's operation this time was completely like a meat bun beating a dog, and there was no return. In the final scene of his descent into darkness, he sees a group of humanoids covered in blades of grass through the starlight......

On the other side, the same thing continued, and the soldiers, who had a total of only five hundred, disappeared silently, without a single wave, and it could be said that they were swallowed up by darkness.

The north and south sides are among the woods, but each has more than 100 people hidden in the personal guard battalion. The back and forth patrol of the Xiaoguo Army, in addition to arranging people here, is also to prevent the sky from being too bright to see the hidden soldiers of the guard battalion. Of course, the purpose of the twilight rounds is not to be golden.

In the dark, Zhang Qinyue led his 5,000 troops to the east under the cover of night, approaching the pile of bonfires in front of the camp that were about to be extinguished. Zhang Qinyue drew a knife and swaddled the wreckage

"Kill!" The 5,000-strong army was like a tiger descending from the mountain, heading straight for the camp.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Trumpet! The garrison immediately exclaimed, and at the same time blew his horn, and was immediately killed by the swarm of arrows.

Zhang Qinyue entered the camp gate, and the battalion sergeant was coming out of the camp tent in a panic, and at the same time, he pulled out a group of wiring regiments from his ears.

"It turns out that they sleep with their ears closed! Did they really not expect us to attack the camp? ”

The 5,000-strong army took advantage of the situation to enter the camp, but just when Zhang Qinyue thought that the other party was defenseless, hundreds of soldiers in front disappeared in an instant. Zhang Qinyue looked sideways, between the gate of the camp and the camp there was a large pit hundreds of meters long, ten meters wide, and five meters deep.

"Prepared? Or is it just a precautionary measure? Zhang Qinyue's brows furrowed again.

Just when Zhang Qinyue was in shock, the Xiaoguo sergeant, who was originally a little flustered, suddenly retreated, and from behind him came a hurried killing sound, and in the deafening shouts of killing, a group of cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army appeared in front of him. Countless soldiers surrounded a young white-armored general.

This is, one of the generals immediately crossed his spear and shouted: "Qingyang Mansion Thief Army, my Xiaoguo Army has been waiting for a long time!" ”

I was really prepared, and I thought about my plan clearly.

"Bandits?" Zhang Qinyue sneered, didn't say much, his eyes lit up, the killing intent suddenly appeared, he waved the long knife in his hand forward, and shouted coldly: "Kill!" ”

There is a pit ahead, how to kill? can only be filled by people, at this moment, he has no way to retreat, only to fight to the death!

"Kill!"

Seeing the other party's movements, Zhao Xun also took out the silver bow, pulled the bow and set the arrow, and the arrow in his hand shot out, shooting through the three soldiers. Immediately, a cold word burst out from between his teeth.

Without the slightest hesitation, and no one flinched, the five thousand soldiers behind Zhang Qinyue, under the leadership of their respective officers, rushed forward silently. When the battle comes to this point, there is nothing to say, it can only be God who prevents and kills God, and Buddha who blocks and kills Buddha!

The soldiers of the Xiaoguo army, after Zhao Xun's arrows flew, all pulled their bows and arrows and shot towards the Fu soldiers, and the arrow rain poured down, allowing the Fu soldiers to go to the next large area. This also solved Zhang Qinyue's embarrassment, no need to send people to death, the corpses of these people can already fill in a passage. But before filling in the passage, they can really only be beaten passively.

Although Zhao Xun didn't need to dig this passage at all, that would damage the soldiers, and even more so the barracks in the barracks. Xiaoguo military bows and arrows, of course, the government army also has them, but unfortunately, there are not as many as the Xiaoguo army, and there is no strength of the Xiaoguo army. You know, the Xiaoguo army camp is full of people who are good at shooting.

The east side of the whole camp was wide open, and there were torches near the entrance of the whole camp, illuminating the whole sky as bright as day. Under the rain of arrows, the government army threw the corpses of their comrades into the pit, and could be the next person to fall into it at any time. It's easy to say, but to throw the corpse of the robe into the pit with your own hands and use it as a stepping stone, you can't do it with a cold eye.

At the cost of nearly a thousand people, the passage was opened, but the soldiers and soldiers of the government were also angry. How can you not be angry that we will come by stepping on the corpse of our own robes?

"Kill! Avenge your dead brother! Countless soldiers roared frantically.

"The Turbulent Army retreats, the heavy armor soldiers, go out into battle!" Zhao Xun shouted coldly. In this new army, all four of the pro-guard troops are among them, and the heavy infantry is cavalry on weekdays, and the armor is only for logistics transportation. But tonight, it will naturally be classified as a heavy armor soldier. In recent days, the Guards have been in action, and tonight it is the Pro-Guard Army. The reason why the Evil Army has been allowed to move is to put them in order.

"Boom, boom, boom......"

"Vertical shield ......," Cao Xiong, the captain of the heavy armor soldiers, roared sharply.

"Boom!"

Three thousand heavily armored infantry were lined up in three columns of a thousand men each. Hurried forward hundreds of steps, and then slammed the heavy shield in his hand upwards. With a loud bang, three cold walls had been built, firmly protecting the cavalry and archers in the rear. Of course, the cavalry at this moment can only be said to be equivalent to the infantry on horseback, and it is impossible to give full play to the advantages of cavalry at this moment.

"Camp Fury...... Get ready! ”

More than 3,000 Furious Blade Battalion soldiers, none of whom were on horseback, trotted to the column behind the heavy infantry shield wall. Then, the soldiers of the Nufeng battalion untied the highland longbow on their backs with indifferent expressions and put it on their sides, and their cold eyes fell on the officers standing on the right side of the formation. Looking at this neat military formation and the immovable soldiers, whether it was the Yan army or the attacking Xiaoguo army, they couldn't help but be secretly shocked by the military momentum of the Xiaoguo army.
