Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Sneak Attack Fails

Jin Zhenglei had no choice but to gather Song Qi and Ling Xue together, and said to Song Qi: "General Song, this bone in Xuanwu County is very difficult to gnaw, it seems that we still have to use kamikaze!" ”

Song Qi thought for a while, spread his hands and said: "Marshal, although the kamikaze is powerful, but I carefully inspected the terrain and felt that there was no high ground around Xuanwu County to use, and it seemed that it was difficult for the kamikaze to exert its power. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Jin Zhenglei smiled slightly, waved his hand in the air, seemed to be in his chest, and said: "Although there is no high ground around Xuanwu County, we can make something out of nothing!" ”

"Out of nothing?" Song Qi and Lingxue were both surprised when they heard this, looked at Jin Zhenglei, and asked in unison.

"Yes. Although there is no mountain outside Xuanwu County to use, we can make the soldiers pile up a dirt mountain! Kim Jong-lei clenched his fists and pounded them in the air, and laughed.

"A mountain of dirt? How much effort does it take, and how can it not be discovered by the enemy? Once the enemy discovers it, how can we continue to build it? Song Qi asked suspiciously.

"Our army has 200,000 horses, one person and one sandbag, and it can be piled up into a mountain of dirt in an instant. How much effort does it take? It can be done in one night. How can the enemy find out? Kim Jong-lei explained, with firmness and confidence in his eyes.

After Jin Zhenglei's explanation, Song Qi and Ling Xue looked at each other and smiled, and suddenly brightened!

After leaving the big tent of the Chinese army, Song Qi was full of praise for Jin Zhenglei, and said to Ling Xue with a smile: "I can think of such a way to make something out of nothing, Marshal Jin is really smart!" ”

"As I said, Marshal Jin's martial arts and resourcefulness are unmatched." Ling Xue fully agreed.

"I think Zhuge Liang's wisdom during the Three Kingdoms period is nothing more than that!" Song Qi said thoughtfully.

"Brother Song, you open your mouth to Zhuge Liang, close your mouth to Zhuge Liang, I think it won't be long before you will become Zhuge Liang!" As she spoke, Ling Xue couldn't stop laughing.

When Song Qi heard this, he smiled, and thought to himself, according to what Kim Zhenglei said, you can use kamikaze to attack any city! In that case, what city can't be done? Why is the enemy invincible? Isn't our army able to win every battle and be invincible in the world?

For Kim Jong-lei's brain full of wisdom and imagination, Song Qi admired it so much. He said in his heart: "If Kim Jong-lei lived in the 21 st century and learned a little theoretical knowledge of physics and chemistry, he would certainly become a great inventor and scientist and create many things out of nothing." ”

According to the method agreed with Kim Jong-lei, in the next few days, Song Qi urged the soldiers to make 100 kites and recruit 100 warriors according to the method last time. With the experience of the last time, the soldiers rushed to sign up and enthusiastically participated, and a hundred were quickly recruited, and more than a dozen soldiers were persuaded to quit by the recruiters because they signed up late, and they were disgruntled and had a dispute with the recruiters.

"Didn't you say recruiting Wonder Soldiers, why didn't you let us sign up?" Several soldiers who had been denied their registration shouted wildly.

"We are only recruiting 100 people, and now the quota is full, so we are no longer accepting applications." The official in charge of recruitment explained.

"Are you trying to make things difficult for us? Don't we qualify? Dissatisfied, the rejected soldiers surrounded the recruiting officer, and the two sides argued.

The sound of the quarrel alarmed Song Qi in the big tent, and Song Qi hurriedly lifted the curtain and walked out of the big tent, shouting, "What happened?" The rejected soldiers saw Song Qi and rushed to tell him about the rejection of the registration, Song Qi listened, waved his hand to everyone to signal quiet, and then smiled and comforted: "The brothers are vying to sign up for the kamikaze, Song is very grateful." But this sneak attack is a very dangerous operation, and it is a matter of everyone's life, so we are limited to 100 people, and those who apply first are hired, and now the number of people is full. Let's go back first, there will be such opportunities in the future, and I will definitely give priority to hiring you in the future. ”

When everyone heard Song Qi say this, they all turned their anger into joy, and said with laughter: "There will be such an opportunity in the future, I will definitely be the first to sign up." ”

During the day, Kim Jong-lei sent 3,000 soldiers to feign a siege. All the other soldiers stayed in the barracks and slept with their heads covered, recuperating their spirits and accumulating their spirits. At night, under the leadership of Song Qi Lingxue, people took a sack to the mountain to dig soil, put it in a sack, and then twisted the sack to the southeast of Xuanwu County 300 meters, gently put it down, and piled up the earth mountain on the spot.

It was another dark and windy night, and with no fingers in sight, a great operation that would determine the success or failure of the battle quietly unfolded under the cover of the dark god.

With so many people coming and going, carrying bags of dirt and piling mountains of dirt, even if they are light, they will inevitably make a noise. The soldiers defending the city three hundred meters away had already heard the strange noise, but this sound had been echoing in their ears, and they couldn't see anything when they looked down, so they were used to it and didn't pay much attention to it.

At this time, the soldiers patrolling the city patrolled all the way along the city wall, and found that there was an abnormal noise here, so they leaned down on the battlement and listened to it for a long time, and became more and more convinced that the sound was strange, so they shouted to the city: "What are you doing down there?" ”

When the soldiers carrying sandbags and building the earth mountain heard the call, they immediately stopped walking and stopped what they were doing, and in an instant the sound fell silent, and the sound of falling leaves falling to the ground could be heard. Even the soldiers defending the city at the head of the city heard something strange.

"Is the enemy preparing a sneak attack?" A soldier patrolling the city asked in horror. This question alerted the crowd, and another soldier said, "Throw a torch and take a photo." ”

As he spoke, a torch was thrown from the top of the city, and with a dazzling light, it fell under the city, but its illumination was not far away. Then four or five more torches were thrown down from the city, and under the dark sky, the slightest light could illuminate a whole world, let alone six or seven blazing torches! In this way, the sneak attack hidden in the darkness is exposed to the public.

Although the light under the city is still very faint when looking down from the city, you can already see a figure of a black cloud under the city, and there seems to be a mountain of dirt looming next to it. When the soldiers in the city saw this, they were terrified and immediately exclaimed: "The enemy is ready to attack the city!" Ring the gong and ring the bell! ”

In an instant, the gong sounded, the alarm bell rang for a long time, and the mournful voice pierced the night, resounding to stop the clouds, and shaking the heavens and the earth.

When the city defense general heard the alarm, he quickly rushed to the scene with hundreds of defenders and asked in a loud voice, "What happened?" ”

"General, the enemy has gathered under the city, and it seems that they are about to attack the city!" Several soldiers rushed to report. When the general heard this, he frowned, and lay down at the battlement and looked around the city in the direction of the soldier's fingers. The general ordered: "Throw a few more torches down!" ”

Dozens of torches swirled in the air, piercing the dark night sky, shining with dazzling light, and with the sound of the whirring wind, they flew towards the city one after another, falling to the ground one after another, illuminating the surrounding scenery. The soldiers who quietly moved to build a mountain of earth under the city could no longer hide, and all of them were exposed in front of the guards on the city. When the city defense general saw this, he was shocked, and hurriedly ordered loudly: "Release the arrow!" ”

All the sergeants agreed, and they all opened their bows and arrows and shot towards the city, and immediately the arrows were like rain, swishing to the city, and landed on the grass outside the city, but they could not reach the Chen army in the mountains of soil.

Chen Jun, who was piling up a mountain of earth outside the city, stopped working when he was first discovered by the city and quietly hid. When they saw that they were far out of range of arrows, they laughed at their enemies as they worked, and cried up to the city, "Shoot at us, you fools, for we are short of arrows!" 'Prime Minister Xie Cao gave arrows! ’”

Seeing that the bow and arrow could not shoot the enemy, and was ridiculed by the enemy, the city defense general really smiled bitterly, so he ordered again: "Change the bow and crossbow!" ”

The soldiers agreed, and immediately went to the arrow tower to bring more than a dozen strong bows and crossbows, and they set up arrows with all hands and eight legs, and shot them fiercely at the place where the earth was piled up. The strong bow can shoot four or five hundred meters, and the hard crossbow can shoot five or six hundred meters, and the place where Chen Jun works is exactly within the firing range. Under a burst of random arrows, dozens of soldiers had already been shot and fell to the ground, and the surrounding soldiers saw it and were so frightened that they hurriedly retreated more than a dozen steps.

In this way, Chen Jun under the city will not be able to hold it firmly!

A small leader hurriedly reported to Song Qi Lingxue, who was commanding behind: "General, the enemy has already shot dozens of brothers to death with a strong bow and crossbow, and now there is no way to continue working!" What to do next, please show the general! ”

"Do you want to continue to build a mountain of dirt?" Ling Xue looked at Song Qi and asked anxiously. The firelight flickered not far away, and their faces flickered brightly and darkly, red and black.

"We're doing sneak attacks. Now that the enemy has discovered what we have done, even if the earth is piled up, it is impossible for the kamikaze to fly into the city in full view of them and in the midst of thousands of arrows. Song Qi shrugged his shoulders and said.

"It seems that this sneak attack can only be fruitless." Ling Xue sighed and agreed.

When the two saw that the arrows under the city were still shooting at the city, soldiers were constantly being shot by arrows, and they fell to the ground with a cry of pain.

There was no choice but to order: "Withdraw!" ”

In this way, the kamikaze sneak attack plan led by Song Qi ended in failure...
