Chapter 571: A Heaven-Sent Opportunity

In the darkness of the night, most of the soldiers in the Haw Par Army were cured of their night blindness, and something could be seen faintly. However, even so, Zhao Yun, as the main general, did not dare to attack directly at the Tartars in the night, joking with the lives of the soldiers under his command.

Of course, what Zhao Yun was worried about was not that his soldiers would fall into chaos in the night battle, or even bomb the camp.

In Zhao Yun's eyes, after the night battle really broke out, the most dangerous thing was not the night, but his opponent Tartar, especially the war horse under the crotch of Tartar.

In the chaos of the battlefield, in the dark night when you can't see your fingers, the Tartars and the war horses under their crotches are not the enemy or the enemy.

Especially the war horses, as long as they go crazy, but also in the night. Even their masters, the Tartars, have no way to control them in the night.

In this case, these warhorses, which have already fallen into madness and are numerous, will go on a rampage on the battlefield without distinguishing between the enemy and the enemy.

On the battlefield completely shrouded in night, thousands of war horses rushed back and forth on the battlefield. No matter how much you pay attention, no matter how strong the combat effectiveness of the soldiers under your command is, you can't beat the crazy war horse.

In this way, the soldiers under his command will have many casualties beyond their expectations in the chaos.

And this is definitely not what Zhao Yun wants to see.

So, the officers and men of the garrison division lined up in a dense formation and carried dozens of heavy artillery. As soon as he advanced to a position two miles from the Tartar barracks, he stopped.

Ordinary musketeers, quickly in front of the military formation, with the wooden stakes they carried with them, tied up in rows to block the cavalry charge.

Hundreds of artillery sorties were made with the musketeers. then under the cover of the musketeers. Very neat erection of artillery.

Soon. More than 50 heavy guns with a range of more than two miles were erected. Of course, box after box of flowering shells was also sent to the side of the heavy artillery.

Under such circumstances, the eyes of all the subordinates, as if they had been discussed, gathered on Zhao Yun at the same time, waiting for the military order.

After glancing at the Tartar barracks, two miles away, illuminated by bonfires. Zhao Yun didn't hesitate for long,

Under the simultaneous gaze of more than a dozen pairs of eyes, he directly opened his mouth and ordered.

"There is still an hour before dawn, and we will cool the Tartars for half an hour to polish their already low morale. Half an hour later, the heavy artillery regiment immediately launched an artillery attack on the Tartar barracks two miles away. If I do not give the order to stop the shelling, the artillery fire on the Tartar barracks cannot be stopped......"

"The last general ordered to ensure that the Tartar barracks were razed to the ground in the shortest time and with the least number of shells......" A pair of eyes of the commander of the heavy artillery regiment. After quickly shooting out two rays of fine light, he assured Zhao Yun with a hot face.

Seeing Zhao Yun, he only nodded. He raised his binoculars again and looked at the Tartar barracks, and it seemed that there was no follow-up. The faces of the three garrison regiment commanders directly showed an expression full of anxiety.

In particular, Chen Zhangming, the commander of the garrison division, directly asked Zhao Yun at the instigation of several regiment commanders.

"Commander, what about us, there are so many people in our garrison division, are we just here to watch the play...... Besides, there were so many Tartar cavalry, and artillery alone could not wipe them all out. The last general's idea was that as soon as the shelling was over, the three musket regiments would take advantage of the chaos to attack the Tartar barracks. The last general believed that the Tartar barracks at that time, even if it was a turtle shell, would be pried open by us. ”

Facing the few pairs of eyes that looked at him beside him, Zhao Yun shook his head without hesitation and said, "No, before dawn, the entire battlefield is a one-man show of the heavy artillery regiment. As for you, Senior Commander Chen, you also said just now, that is, be a good spectator, and without my order, no one is allowed to attack the Tartar military camp. ”

Just when everyone's gaze was slowly covered with doubt, Zhao Yun spoke again: "As for the specific reason, your Division Commander Chen also said just now, after the shelling is over, the Tartar military camp will definitely fall into chaos. One is not good, it is possible to bomb the camp directly. At this time, you launched an attack on the Tartar camp and joined the battlefield, didn't you fall into chaos with the Tartars? ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Yun's words suddenly changed and continued: "Of course, before dawn, although you are just spectators. However, after dawn, you will become the protagonists of the battlefield. When the time comes, when it's time for you to attack, if you can't fight well, then don't let me use military law against you......"

In the face of the rag and leopard army, the Tartars, who were ready to face the battle, did not wait for the attack of the tiger and leopard army in the barracks.

As time passed little by little, outside the barracks, there was still no time to see the shadow of the Haw Par Army. Tartar officers, although they know the specific movements of the Haw Par Army from the mouth of the scouts. However, it is not clear to the ordinary Tartar soldiers, who occupy the vast majority of the barracks.

In addition, they experienced high-intensity combat during the day, and they were woken up less than two hours after resting at night. All sorts of tired expressions, as time went on, began to slowly appear in the eyes of ordinary soldiers.

What's more, some Tartar cavalrymen, with their superb horsemanship, rode directly on horseback and began to sleep.

Of course, most of the Tartars still resisted the drowsiness that kept hitting their whole bodies in their minds, and they didn't sleep. However, their morale and courage have been consumed little by little under this exhausting constant attack.

Compared with ordinary soldiers riding on war horses and blowing cold winds, Tartar generals are much more relaxed.

However, as time passed little by little, the Tiger and Par Army, which they were anxiously waiting, still stopped two miles away from the barracks, when there was no sign of attack. The faces of several Tartar generals finally changed slightly, and they began to be a little restless.

At this time, a Tartar commander really couldn't bear this waiting atmosphere, and shouted to the chief general sitting on the main seat without the slightest tone of discussion: "General, whether the Tiger and Leopard Army will attack or not, we have been waiting for half an hour." In more than half an hour, the sky will be dawn. If the warriors continue to wait like this, after dawn, they will be tired and there will be no way to break through......"

"In my opinion, the Haw Par Army, which is hiding two miles away, must not be able to launch a night battle that we are all very afraid of. Instead of waiting here, it is better for the fat warriors to go back to sleep, replenish their bodies, and prepare for the breakout after dawn. ”

"That's right, the strength of the Haw Par Army is theirs. At night, however, their firearms were reduced by at least 30 per cent. Under such circumstances, as long as the generals of the Haw Par Army were not fools, they would not have attacked us at night, otherwise, the Haw Par Army would not have been standing motionless for two miles...... General, I think you're too worried and nervous. Could it be that because of the daytime battle, you were scared by the Haw Par Army......" Another Tartar general, directly with a mockery of the main general, loudly agreed.

After finishing speaking, it directly caused a burst of echoes from colleagues.

Seeing the subordinates in front of him who were almost in unison, facing their ridicule of himself. Although the heart of the chief general is very angry, and very aggrieved. However, in order to prevent his limited forces from going down the path of division, he held back, and with a hint of a very bad premonition, agreed to everyone's request.

However, what he didn't expect was that it was because of his momentary concession that gave the Haw Par Army a god-given opportunity to eliminate them. (To be continued......)
