Chapter 136: Night Attack on Rongshan (Ask for Subscription!) )
Rongshan Pass
On the third night of the Western Army, the defenders of Rongshan Pass continued as usual, and after dinner, they began to relax, leaning against the wall of the barrier in twos and twos and began to brag and fart.
Most of them are captured people, and it is impossible to keep them on such high vigilance for twelve hours a day like professional soldiers, and the regular army of Rongshan Pass also knows this, so they don't dare to oppress them too tightly, otherwise it will be very dangerous if there is a conflict, after all, they are too short of people now.
"Have you heard, Yun Ye, the leader of the Western Army, has had a big wedding in the past few days, and he has invited the people of the entire Qinzhou City to eat, and he has invited the people to eat for three days."
A folk man said to his companion who had just finished eating and was still picking his teeth, his eyes full of envy.
"So what, since we have done this errand now, guarding the court here and eating the rice and grain of the imperial court, it is the opposite of the Western Army, if they want to come, we still have to fight with them, you kid, don't think about that, do you think you think about that, the Western Army will not kill you when it comes?"
The big man looked at the man who had just spoken contemptuously, although he was also captured by the strong man, but he was different from those people who could only farm, he had been mixed in the rivers and lakes, so he was especially respected by everyone, and everyone listened to what he said, thinking that he was more knowledgeable.
The man patted the man on the shoulder, comforted him, and went to another place where the crowds gathered and chatted, as he did every night when he was bored, and went to various places to express opinions that were different from those of others, to show that he was more knowledgeable than the despicable peasants.
And now he is not too worried, the chief general of the Western Army is still getting married, maybe the wedding celebration in Qinzhou City has not ended, and the Western Army will not run out to fight at this time.
"If it's me, how good it would be to drink wine and eat meat at home, then I would run out to fight if I had nothing to do!"
Fifteen miles outside Rongshan Pass, Yun Ye's face was as calm as water, the big war was coming, he firmly believed that he would be able to win the victory, this is also a kind of belief, the obsession with victory, but also a kind of self-confidence, a great self-confidence in the combat effectiveness of the Western Army.
"Everyone rest for two hours, take care of their horsepower, and after two hours, wrap their horses' hooves and slowly approach Rongshan Pass, and be sure to attack before dawn when the enemy's defense is the weakest!"
Yun Ye calmly said to the herald beside him, after two days and two nights of running, the soldiers and war horses were already very tired, although two hours could not make them fully recover, but at least they could keep them in a good fighting state.
Two hours passed quickly, and not long after now, most of the soldiers in Rongshan Pass had already rested, and only the soldiers on duty at night were still patrolling and sentry.
Because of the wedding of the chief general of the Western Army, they relaxed a little, and many people casually found some places to lean on to take a nap, only a small number of people looked around from time to time, saw that there was no movement, and put their minds at ease and continued to nap.
The western army had already set out from the valley at this time, and in order not to alarm the enemy, their movements were very secretive and slow, and the horses' hooves were also wrapped in a thick cloth, so that the war horses would walk on the land without making a single sound.
Everyone was very quiet, or it would be better to say calm, when this person was most likely to be sleepy and slept the most sweetly, the Western Army had quietly walked to the place not far from Rongshan Pass.
Yun Ye raised his hand and motioned for the soldiers to stop, and the cavalry was at the end, because in a siege like this, without opening the city gate first, the cavalry would not have much effect.
"Zhao Hu, you lead the selected elite soldiers, go up and kill those guard sentries, we will follow behind, and we will send a signal immediately after killing them."
After Zhao Hu got the order, he took a team of more than 100 elites and began to slowly touch forward, looking at Zhao Hu and others who disappeared into the vast night, Yun Ye also began to lead the infantry to move forward slowly, as long as Zhao Hu and they killed the guards and opened the city gate, they would be able to control the city tower as soon as possible, and then the cavalry would rush in later, even if the Jin army reacted and planned to counterattack, it would be suppressed.
A figure gently turned over from a slightly darker place on the side of the city wall, and then, several Western soldiers followed, but those Jin soldiers who were still napping still didn't notice it, and some were still smashing their mouths and talking in their dreams, as if they were reminiscing about the few pieces of meat they ate tonight.
Maybe dying in their sleep, less painful, is still a good thing for them.
The sword glowed with cold light, quietly stretched out to the necks of those guards, and then took advantage of the situation, and the guards left this world with a trace of confusion and ignorance.
Countless city tower guards were killed like this by the soldiers who sneaked up from the Western Army, and they still didn't know it.
"Crunch!"
The gate of Rongshan Pass was slowly pushed open from the inside out.
"What sound?"
A Jin soldier heard the sound of the city gate opening, and opened his sleepy eyes, but saw the cold and shining sword, beckoning to his neck.
"Poof!"
Heads on the ground!
At this moment, many soldiers of the Jin army have been awakened by these noises, because, Yun Ye led the infantry of the Western Army to kill in!
"Dangdang, dang, dang!"
The gongs and drums sounded rapidly, warning all the Jin troops in the pass and asking them to support the city gate.
But the fighting is often brutal and does not give any respite. Especially the Western Army, as long as it bites you, it will definitely bite you to death before stopping, and in the meantime, if you are still delusional about other things, it is simply impossible.
Although the sound of gongs and drums startled many soldiers defending the city, most of these people were farmers, and when they saw countless Western soldiers rushing in in the dark night, they turned around and fled, and they had no heart to resist at all.
They were originally captured by the strong men, and there is no need to throw their lives here for the sake of the court.
Only a few people, seeing that there was no hope of escaping, brandished their sabers in a vain attempt to resist the Western army, but all this was in vain.
The combat effectiveness of them and the Western Army is simply the same as that of the sky and the ground, and the three hundred soldiers of the Western Army will be sure to defeat three thousand such farmers. What's more, now, it is the Western Army that has the advantage in numbers, so there is no need to play.
The castle tower was quickly controlled by the troops sent by Yunye, and it was effortless, those farmers almost fled, and the only ones who really resisted were only a few hundred people.
But the real lord hasn't come out yet, and now Yun Ye is just waiting for them to come to the door by themselves, and they will definitely come.
The general of the Jin army watched with a gloomy face as these temporarily captured farmers continued to rout, and his soldiers were now regrouping those farmers together, letting them use them as meat shields to attract the firepower of the Western army, and then they were making a move, although the result was unknown, but at least the chances of winning this were better, even if some farmers died, so what?
No one expected that the Western Army would be killed at this time, shouldn't they celebrate Yunye's wedding in Qinzhou City? It's only been two days, and I've already killed here.
The imperial court has already made it clear that as long as their guards here, anyone, no matter who they are, as long as they lose the city they are guarding to the hands of the Western Army, they will be directly removed from their posts and investigated, and even beheaded!
And their families are all guarded by the imperial court, they have absolutely no chance to escape, rather than go back and be beheaded, their own families will also be implicated, it is better to concentrate on fighting with them, when the time comes, although the court will not chase anything, but at least it will not affect their families.
Taking a deep breath, the Jin army general pulled out the saber in his hand and pointed in the direction of the city tower, and the Jin soldiers pushed those people to walk in front and kill in the direction of the city tower.
Yun Ye saw the Jin army rushing out of their barracks on the city tower, and they were very despicable to use those people as human shields, and they couldn't help but feel murderous. Originally, he thought that there were only 1,000 Jin troops, and he would never dare to fight them, and he would definitely run away, and if he was then, he would not force them to death, and he could properly let them live.
But now, they all have to die!
A soldier of the Western Army waved a torch on the tower a few times, and then the sound of horses' hooves trampling the earth was heard.
The cavalry of the Western Army, which has been waiting outside the pass for a long time, got the signal at this moment, and they are all cheering and rushing to the pass, because the Western Army has captured the city pass, so they have almost unloaded the cloth on the horse's hooves, and now the rumbling sound of the horse's hooves resounded in the sky, in this quiet night, it is even more shocking.
The information they got from the signal they had just waved was that there was a group of enemies left for them to deal with.
Cheering and waving their swords, the people of Bianxi are natural warriors and have a special love for fighting.
The night was very heavy, but his tranquility was broken by the slightest restlessness, indicating that what was about to happen would also be unpeaceful.
