The night was dark and the wind was howling. The temperature at night is even colder than during the day. There was silence inside and outside the entire Kelu city, except for the fire on the city wall and in the Shule ** camp a few miles outside the city.

In the night, the gates of the city were slowly opened, and after the ice melted, the doors were silent. A group of men and horses quietly went out of the city, and in the howling cold wind, they slowly ran towards the Shule ** camp a few miles away from the opposite side of Keluo City.

The east side of Kedu City is in the shape of a trumpet, and the closer it is to Kedu City, the narrower the spatial distance is because the two mountains in the north and south are slowly approaching. Therefore, the camp of the army of Shule is located seven miles away from Kelu City, and it is more than five miles deep.

After a series of battles, whether it was the Zhao army defending the city or the Shule ** team besieging the city, they were all exhausted. Especially in recent days, the number of wounded soldiers of the Shule State who besieged the city has increased dramatically, which has greatly affected the morale of the army.

Today's battle has caused a 'surge' increase in the number of wounded soldiers in Shule Kingdom, many soldiers who were drenched in ice water fell to the ground and died soon after returning to the camp, and many more were confined to 'beds' due to the cold, unable to fight again, adding hundreds of wounded to Shule Kingdom. The most important thing is that the morale of the soldiers of Shule fell suddenly.

After the king of Shule lost his temper in the camp, he could only let the army repair for the night and fight again the next day. After all, it has been many days since the continuous siege of the city.

The night was deep, the wind was howling, and there was no moon in the sky, making the whole land dark. Two thousand soldiers quietly approached the camp of Shule State.

"It's a cold day!" After Zhao Jie sighed secretly, he gave an order to the junior colonel beside him: "Send someone to get rid of the guards in front of the camp 'gate', be careful." ”

"Whew...... Sigh ......" Several crisp sounds were drowned in the howling cold wind, and more than a dozen soldiers of the Shule country yawning and stamping on duty near the camp 'gate' 'shot' to the ground, and the corpses fell to the ground, until a slight muffled sound was made, but in the sound of the cold wind whistling, it was inconspicuous.

Subsequently, dozens of Zhao soldiers immediately pounced, climbed over the camp gate, and crossed in. Next to the campfire around the camp 'gate', dozens of guards were again slashed. At this point, the 'door' of the Shule camp has been opened to the Zhao army. Dozens of soldiers slowly opened the 'door' of the battalion, opening the way for the Zhao army to attack.

Although there are still many camp tents not far from the camp 'gate', which are also the resting places of the soldiers guarding the camp 'gate', the Shule soldiers inside do not know that Zhao Jun has been killed. Because of the several days of fighting, the soldiers of Shule were exhausted, and the Zhao army was trapped in Kelu City and could only defend the city, they never thought that the Zhao army would go out of the city to attack. In addition, in this kind of weather, even if they are prepared, these soldiers do not want to freeze at the camp 'gate'. Therefore, Zhao Jun easily opened the camp 'door'.

Therefore, at this moment, the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom are sleeping extremely deeply, and their vigilance against 'sex' has also been reduced to a minimum.

Seeing that the camp 'door' was opened, Zhao Jie's eyes flashed with cold light, waved the spear in his hand, waved it forward, and shouted softly: "Kill with me!" "The 'fine' war horses under the crotch rushed out and rushed towards the big camp. The 2,000 soldiers, who were already ready to charge, immediately lit torches and rode forward.

"Poof...... Poof...... "Several parchment bags filled with fire oil were thrown out and remained on the camp wall, where they were immediately lit by torches. Suddenly, fiery red flames rose into the air, illuminating the entire front camp.

Immediately afterwards, more soldiers of Zhao lit the torches in their hands when they passed through the camp 'gate' and rushed straight towards the Shule State camp. The camp tent guarded by the battalion 'gate' less than a mile from the camp 'gate' was also ignited by the galloping Zhao army's fire oil, and the hundreds of Shule soldiers inside were immediately buried in the flames, and the terrible screams and cries for help spread throughout the silent night.

At this time, the defenders of the Shule State in the front camp discovered the abnormality, and immediately got up and came out to investigate. Many Shule soldiers who were awakened from their sleep scolded one after another, but the experienced soldiers among them suddenly knew from the rumble brought by the running horses and the slight vibration of the ground that it was not their own soldiers who had a problem, but an enemy attack.

"Enemy attack! Zhao Jun is here......"

Suddenly, some soldiers who came out to check in their clothes and armor suddenly saw the Zhao soldier who was rushing over, and immediately screamed bitterly.

However, at this moment, their shouts could no longer bring them good luck, but instead made them the target of Zhao Jun's attack. However, most of the Shule soldiers who had just woken up from their sleep still didn't understand what was going on.

"Dead ......" The spear in Zhao Jie's hand flickered like starlight, and instantly stabbed to death dozens of Shule soldiers who were not in good armor, and picked them aside. Immediately, sheepskin bags filled with fire oil were thrown out and remained on top of the tents. Several rockets and torches were thrown, and in an instant, huge torches appeared.

Ignoring the Shule soldiers who had just gotten up, they were surrounded by flames, ignited by the flames, struggling in the flames, and finally, unable to reach the end, turned into ashes......

"Who are you? Dare to break into my camp! "The general of the former battalion of Shule State, who had just put on his armor with the help of the 'guards', rushed out of the camp tent and shouted angrily at Zhao Jie and others.

"I'm the Commander of the Castle! Kill! For this Shule general's question, Zhao Jie smiled coldly, waved his gun to meet him, and secretly despised the other party in his heart, the situation in front of him was already obvious, and it was naturally the enemy who came to raid your camp, and he asked what he wanted.

Although he thought so, he also replied, but Zhao Jie did not pause at all, the spear slipped in his hand, and with a loud shout, he stabbed the former camp guard and fell under the horse.

The entire front camp of the Shule State camp suddenly burst into flames, and the soldiers guarding the camp ran out to put out the fire.

The cavalry of the Zhao army took out the crossbow hanging on the side of the horse, put it on the crossbow box, and began to exert its might. The crossbow arrows roared through the air, and a little cold light flew out, and the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom who were close around were all 'shot' through it. The horizontal knife carried a cloud of cold knives, slashing and slashing in the 'chaotic' army for a while.

A moment later, the entire front camp of the Shule State camp fell into a sea of fire, thousands of Shule soldiers were killed by the Zhao army, and more Shule soldiers were directly burned to death in the camp tent by the fire. Of course, there were also many soldiers who fled in all directions, running towards the rear.

Seeing that the soldiers of Shule were scattered and fled, Zhao Jie naturally would not stop there, and the army continued to push forward, and wherever he went, the soldiers of Shule suffered heavy losses, and all the camp tents were turned into a sea of fire. Although there were no Shule soldiers in the back tents to continue to stay in them and die, Zhao Jie believed that burning these tents was enough to make King Shule anxious. It's winter, and there are no tents, so why should they sleep in the snow?

King Shule, who was in the middle army, finally learned about the situation in the front camp. Of course, at this moment, as long as there are many fools and blind people, they can see the flames and shouts of killing in the front camp.

King Shule's face was blue at this moment, and he learned from several soldiers who came back from the front camp to report that the situation in the front camp was actually caused by the night attack of the Zhao army in Keluo City. He couldn't attack for a long time, and now he was attacked by the other party at night, how could he endure this situation?

Immediately, King Shule ordered the officers and men of the Chinese army to enter the front camp to meet the battle, and they must leave these Zhao troops behind. He knew that there were not many Zhao troops in Kedu City, and even if all of them attacked, there would not be too many men and horses. As long as these people are left behind, then most of the defenders of Coro City will be destroyed. At that time, the city will definitely be able to attack in one go.

Under the order of the king of Shule, 5,000 and the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom rushed out together and rushed towards the front camp, preparing to leave behind these enemy soldiers who attacked the camp and could not rest well.

Five thousand Shule soldiers rushed from the middle army, and Zhao Jie had already heard it from his voice, and immediately made arrangements. Some of the tents were picked up by the soldiers of Zhao and lay across the road in the camp, so that the passages that could have been straight to the camp were blocked by scattered fireballs. If the soldiers of Shule want to come back, they can only make a detour from left to right.

In the rear of the Zhao soldiers, sheepskin bags filled with fire oil were still on the ground, lined up, waiting for the moment of final retreat. In addition, among these sheepskin bags, there are dozens of Skyshaking Rega.

Among the 5,000 Shule soldiers, 2,000 cavalry and 3,000 foot soldiers, all of them were all in unison. The Zhao army, with only 1,700 cavalry at the moment, and the remaining 200 or so people had already driven more than 2,000 captured war horses back to the city. Although the Shule Kingdom was attacking Kedu City, when the soldiers of the Shule Kingdom came, they all had war horses. Moreover, because the siege of the city was not used, the livestock were raised together, which happened to be cheaper for the Zhao army.

"General! They're coming! ”

"Coming? Then let them taste our awesomeness! Zhao Jie said coldly, "The whole army is ready!" Put! ”

The 1,700 Zhao soldiers who had already been prepared and assembled raised their bows and arrows in their hands one after another, and relaxed their fingers pulling the strings under Zhao Jie's order.

"Whoosh ......"

The dense bows and arrows suddenly slashed through the flames and flew down above the Shule soldiers who were about to bypass the fire in front of them.

Arrows rained down, arrows flew like locusts, and the dense rain of arrows immediately covered the soldiers of the Shule country at the front, and their advance stopped in the path of flames. Some of the Shule soldiers 'sticked' five or six arrows in their faces alone. I can't make out the human body. The most unfortunate thing is the war horse, the war horse is not like a person, you can bow down to dodge, you can swing a knife to block, the arrows are constantly whistling past, and some war horses are 'inserted' with at least a hundred arrows up and down. But he was still running forward by habit, until he fell down fiercely and slid on the ground, and as a result, all the arrows were pressed deep into his body, until he ran into the fire, and let out a dying wail......

Looking at the piles of flames on the road ahead, the captain of the Shule State led the army suddenly understood that this Zhao army had already prepared, and this seemingly bypassable road was simply a trap that the other party could leave behind. Although there are more soldiers on his own side than on the other side, he cannot directly kill the opponent through this distance of two hundred meters.

Although the Zhao army only had about 2,000 soldiers, the first round of arrow rain knocked down the speed of the Shule soldiers' advance, and also 'messed up' their formation, some advanced, some wanted to retreat, and suddenly 'chaos'. As a result, the second and third rounds of arrow rain had a greater effect, and more Shule soldiers fell to the ground. Because of the hurried arrival of the Shule soldiers, many of them only brought long knives, and did not bring bows and arrows and improvised wooden shields at all. As a result, in just a few moments, under the cover of dozens of arrow rains from the Zhao army, in front of the flame fence, six or seven hundred Shule soldiers had already fallen.

The soldiers of the Shule Kingdom and the soldiers of the Zhao Army yearned for it across the flames, and the faces of several generals of the Shule Kingdom were 'pale', but they could only take a detour. Otherwise, there is simply no way to get close.

"General, the arrows of the brothers are almost 'shooting', and besides, the flames in front of you are almost burned out, so it's time to withdraw."

Zhao Jie looked ahead, then at the rows of sheepskin bags behind him, and nodded: "Pass the order, and the army will retreat immediately." General Ben himself waited for them to approach. ”

As the flames blocking the road gradually weakened, the Zhao army quickly withdrew. However, the soldiers of Shule were not stupid, so they naturally saw that Zhao Jun was going to escape.

"Rushing over, the flames are about to be extinguished, and there is no way to stop us. Zhao Jun is about to escape, warriors, kill me and leave this group of 'bastards' behind! The leading general shouted angrily.

Suddenly, the remaining 3,000 Shule national infantry knights rushed out together, and the cavalry was in front, wading through the remnants of the fire, completely extinguishing the fire, and the infantry followed closely behind, chasing after the Zhao army.

"Haha...... The general was like a god, and they really chased after him, this time, let them taste the power of the earth-shaking thunder again. Zhou Qing, who followed Zhao Xun last, laughed and laughed.

"Then what are you waiting for, 'shoot'!"

......Dozens of rockets flew backwards and 'shot' out, landing at the feet of the Shule soldiers who followed closely.

"Just a few dozen? Zhao Jun is already panicking, they have no arrows, kill me! "The leading general saw that Zhao Jun only 'shot' dozens of arrows, and immediately shouted excitedly.

"Damn it!" Immediately, the general scolded loudly, because his war horse was ignited by the flames that suddenly rose on the ground, and the mane 'hair' of the entire war horse was burning, and a scorching smell came to his nose. The general found that on the ground, which was more than 100 meters long and tens of meters long, there seemed to be these sheepskin bags piled up among the debris, and these sheepskin bags were the root cause of the fire.

"Fooled......" General Shule scolded angrily, and before he could give a military order, he felt a shock all over his body, as if he had flown up, and then lost consciousness.

In the eyes of the soldiers in the rear of Zhao Jun and Shule State, they heard a loud sound of "booming ......", accompanied by clusters of firelight, and streams of black smoke bloomed in the pursuit team of Shule State, and the black 'color' smoke set off the snow even whiter. When the black smoke drifted, it changed its shape, like a flame burning in hell. The black smoke gradually drifted away, leaving pools of blood on the snow, staining the snow that remained not far away, as well as mutilated human limbs. The snow on the ground was completely shattered by the impact of the explosion's air 'waves', and the face was covered with all kinds of debris, making the vision hazy. The soldiers of the Shule State who were chasing after him in the rear suddenly felt a buzzing sound in their ears, and they could no longer hear other sounds, and even, some people who were close to each other began to shake, and their ears and noses were oozing blood......

After a long time, the soldiers of Shule who were running slowly in the rear came to their senses, and when they saw the scene in front of them, they all trembled. At this moment, they already knew that this was the weapon that Zhao Jun used in defending the city. It's just that when defending the city, it doesn't have such great power. That's because, when defending the city, it was used piecemeal, and this time, it was dozens of small countries used together.

On the ground, there are all kinds of mutilated corpses, some weapons are casual, fragments of armor can be seen everywhere, a hand, a 'leg', and the parts of various people and war horses can also be found everywhere. In the center of the explosion, large craters appeared in the same place, and not far away, there were a large number of wounded, who were either stunned or blown out of the ground, and the torn wounds, blood gushed out and gradually penetrated the earth. What's more, all kinds of iron beads and nails wrapped in the earth-shattering thunder exploded into the body, causing many wounded to die slowly and wailing.

A few days ago, when the city was attacked by the daylight, these Shule soldiers knew that once they were hit into their bodies by these iron beads and nails, they would definitely be hopeless, because they did not have the ability to take them out. Of course, it is possible to take it out, but the wounded are bound to play hard.

"Haha...... Well, fried well! Sergeant Zhao couldn't help laughing when he looked at the scene in the rear during the retreat. And at this moment, the soldiers of the Shule country have long lost the courage to continue the pursuit. In addition, the general of Shule State, who was ordered to pursue, was also killed by the earth-shattering thunder of the Zhao army. As for the remaining soldiers, where do they dare to continue the pursuit?

Zhao Jie and others led the army to retreat, and the guards of Kedu City were already waiting near the city gate. Even the young men and women of the city flocked to the city walls to watch. The soldiers of the Zhao army naturally knew the situation to the west, and the two thousand and the young and strong naturally learned from the war horses that were driven back by more than 200 soldiers that the Zhao army actually went out of the city to attack the enemy camp outside the city at night.

This time it can surprise these young people a lot, especially the seven or eight hundred captives, who are even more surprised. They know how many Shule troops there are outside the city, and the army they have become are all the 'elite' of Shule country.

And the return of the two thousand and the war horse let them know that this Zhao army had succeeded. This made those of them who took refuge in Zhao Jun can't help but settle down. Zhao Jie and the others were right, because the repeated battles had gradually reduced the materials for defending the city, and these young men also began to worry about whether Kedu City could hold on.

And the sky-high fire and earth-shattering explosion of the Shule State camp outside the city immediately wiped out their worried hearts. When he saw nearly 2,000 soldiers returning, he made all the Zhao soldiers and young men cheer.

"General Mu, arrange people to strengthen the sentry, this battle has caused a lot of losses to the Shule country, one is not good, if the king of Shule is angry, maybe he will continue to fight with us at night. Now, King Shule is vomiting blood in anger. Zhao Jie laughed. Of course, the big victory of the night attack did not make him careless because of this.

The deputy general Mu Feng also looked extremely happy, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, general, we are not soldiers of Shule country, if they want to fight at night, we will accompany him." Presumably, they are not in the mood to attack us at this time. ”
