Chapter 950: Medium Scheme
In the dark night, a large army was rapidly marching towards the Qin army stationed outside Xiaopei City.
About to arrive at the place where the Qin army was stationed, Li Ji raised his arm and stopped the march of the army.
"Crossbowman!" After the army stopped, Li Ji shouted behind him: "Launch rockets into the sky!" ”
"No!" As soon as Li Ji gave the order, an officer immediately answered, and then the officer raised his arm and shouted to the crossbowman at the back of the line: "Crossbowman, launch the rocket!" ”
The officer conveyed Li Ji's order, and more than 1,000 crossbowmen in the team immediately tied oilcloth to the arrows, lit the oilcloth, picked up the crossbow, and aimed at the sky.
Flame-burning crossbows were aimed at the sky, and after another order from the officer, all the crossbowmen pulled off their springs.
The Qin army's strong crossbowman slashed off the machine spring, and more than a thousand flaming arrows flew into the air.
The crossbowman fired arrows into the sky, which was negotiated between Li Ji and Wei Yan earlier.
The Qin army in the barracks had already quietly made arrangements, and the barracks at this time were already empty, and there was not even a single soldier guarding the barracks.
The Qin army that stayed outside Xiaopei City, as long as they saw the rockets in the sky, knew that the time had come to attack Xiaopei.
Pieces of arrows flew into the air wrapped in flames, and in a field only a hundred steps away from the Qin army's military camp, Wei Yan pressed the hilt of his sword with his hand, looked up at the rockets in the night sky, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He was too young, and this mature smile on his face made his expression feel very strange.
At the same time, Le Jin and Li Dian on the city wall of Xiaopei were also full of joy when they saw the rockets in the sky.
The two glanced at each other and said almost in unison: "It's coming!" ”
"Pass the order, leave a thousand people to defend the city, and the rest will go out of the city with the two of us later!" After the rockets outside the city fell, Li Dian saw the Qin army's barracks shining in flames from a distance, and hurriedly gave an order to the soldiers behind him.
After ordering the crossbowmen to fire rockets into the sky, Li ordered them to fire ignited arrows at the barracks.
Before attacking Cao Hong, Li Ji and Wei Yan had a private discussion, and when they set out on the expedition, Wei Yan would make corresponding arrangements, leaving them with an empty military camp.
Since the barracks are empty, in order to capture Xiaopei, it is nothing to throw away some tents and baggage!
When the Qin army's crossbowmen fired arrows, they did not follow the Qin army's previous habit of firing them in echelons, but shot the crossbows into the empty barracks in pieces.
"The cavalry rushed into the barracks, and when they entered the barracks, they shouted loudly and touched each other's weapons!" The crossbowman shot the rocket for a while, and Li Ji gave another order to the officer behind him.
The officer answered, and after conveying Li Ji's order, the two thousand Qin cavalry waved the Pu sword in their hand, let out an earth-shattering cry, and rushed towards their own military camp.
The cavalry rushed into the barracks, and sure enough, they found that the barracks had already been empty.
The arrows fired by the crossbowmen set fire to the tents in the barracks, and the tents burned with raging flames, reflecting the faces of the cavalry soldiers red.
The fire in the barracks was raging, and the cavalry of the Qin army struck each other with their swords, making bursts of gold and iron resonance.
Not only that, but they also let out a burst of shouts while hitting each other.
Although the Qin army's camp was already full of fires, the Cao army on the city wall couldn't really see who was fighting, and thought that Cao Hong's army had launched an attack on the Qin army from behind.
Looking outside the city, listening to the bursts of shouting and killing, Le Jin swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said to Li Dian on the side: "The Qin army is really strong, it is not chaotic when it is attacked like this!" ”
"It's just that if you are attacked on one side, you will not be in chaos!" Compared with Le Jin's surprise, Li Dian was much more indifferent at this time, and said to Le Jin: "Once I wait out of the city, it will be difficult for the Qin army to stay out of chaos!" ”
As he spoke, Li Dian couldn't wait any longer, and turned around to go down the city wall and lead the army out of the city.
"Wait a minute!" As soon as Li Dian turned around, Le Jin grabbed him and said to him: "Although there are shouts and kills outside the city, the sound of killing is not very loud, I think General Cao Hong has not yet attacked on all fronts!" ”
Pulled by Le Jin, Li Dian stopped and listened carefully to the shouts and killings outside the city, and sure enough, he felt that the bursts of killing did not match the fighting of tens of thousands of people.
At this moment, the shouting and killing sound from the Qin army's barracks suddenly sounded a lot, just listening to the sound, you could hear that there were several times more people rushing towards the Qin army.
Hearing the shouting and killing sound intensified a lot, Li Dian and Le Jin glanced at each other, and the two of them didn't say anything more, and ran side by side towards the steps of the lower city wall.
Inside the city gate, the soldiers had already brought war horses for the two.
When they each arrived at the war horse, Li Dian and Le Jin turned over and stepped on the horse, and took the blade from the hands of their own soldiers, Li Dian raised his hand holding the blade, and shouted to the four thousand Cao troops who were already waiting in line: "Our army outside the city has already ambushed the Qin army, and in a battle tonight, we must wipe out the Qin army!" The army stepped forward bravely, waited until the Qin army was annihilated, and judged the merit according to the head! ”
With Li Dian's shout, the four thousand Cao troops all raised their swords high in their hands and shouted in unison.
The city gate slowly opened, and when the city gate only opened a gap, Li Dian couldn't hold back his temperament and rushed out.
Li Dian rushed out of the city gate, and Le Jin followed closely behind him.
Behind the two of them were the four thousand Cao troops running fast.
Leading four thousand Cao soldiers out of the city, Li Dian and Le Jin did not delay at all, and rushed straight to the Qin army's military camp.
The gate of Xiaopei City opened, and Wei Yan, who had already led the army to wait more than a hundred steps away from the barracks, was sitting in the grass quietly waiting for the arrival of the fighter plane.
Seeing the black shadows out of the city, Wei Yan stood up violently.
As soon as he got up, a partial general ran to him, pointed in the direction of the city gate, and said to him: "General, Cao's army is out of the city!" ”
"Pass the order down, intercept and kill the Cao army out of the city, and capture Xiaopei!" As soon as the general's words fell, Wei Yan gave him an order.
The military camp built by the Qin army outside the city was only two or three hundred steps away from the Xiaopei city wall.
Le Jin and Li Dian led the Cao army out of the city, but it was only a moment, and they were killed near the Qin army's military camp.
Before rushing to the barracks, Li Dian and Le Jin suddenly saw the patches of bright red armor in the barracks, and were taken aback, and hurriedly reined in the war horses.
The two of them reined in their horses, and the soldiers of the Cao army who were charging behind them were unable to catch their feet, and actually rushed past them.
"Kill!" Although the shouting and killing sound of the Qin army was loud before, if you listen carefully, you will find that there is no strong killing intent in the shouting and killing, but this time, the shouting and killing sound of the Qin army is strong.
Seeing that Li Dian and Le Jin led the army to the front, the 10,000 Qin troops under the Li Department hurriedly stopped and played, and the tide rushed towards the Cao army.
It was only at this time that Li Dian and Le Jin secretly shouted in their hearts not to, and understood that they had fallen for the Qin army.
"Withdraw to the city!" The Qin army was overwhelming, and if they fought in the field, the Cao army would not be able to get any benefit, and after Le Jin reacted, he hurriedly issued an order to retreat to the Cao army behind him.
The four thousand soldiers of the Cao army also understood at this time that they were caught in the encirclement of the Qin army, and they turned around one after another and ran towards the gate of Xiaopei City.
As soon as they turned around, they took a step when a rain of arrows flew from their side.
The black pressure pressed a piece of Qin army from the left flank to kill head-on, and the Qin army's strong crossbowmen who rushed to the front charged while putting arrows on the strong crossbows, and fired a rain of deadly arrows at the Cao army.
Patches of Cao troops fell in the arrows fired by the Qin army's strong crossbowmen, and just as the Cao army just remembered to guard against the left flank, there was a sudden shout of killing from the right flank, and a Qin army with the same number as the left flank quickly outflanked them while firing arrows.
The Qin army that rushed out from the two wings did not fight in parallel, but went head-on towards the Cao army.
Suddenly attacked head-on by the Qin army, the Cao army was suddenly in chaos, but on the battlefield, the god of death was by everyone's side at any time, and they were in chaos, and only the god of death was more favored by them.
Two thousand cavalry of the Qin army rode their horses and quickly followed behind Cao Jun and rushed towards them.
The Qin army, which was killed head-on, was already close at hand.
A soldier of the Cao Army who ran at the front, seeing that the Qin army had arrived in front of him, and he had no will to fight at all, his heart suddenly moved, and he hurriedly bent his legs, raised his weapon high above his head and surrendered to the Qin army.
The tide-like Qin army ran past him, and countless people ran past him in a row, and the soldiers of the Cao army breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that this time he saved his life.
But before he could rejoice, a rushing Qin army spotted him, jumped in front of him, raised his foot and kicked him in the chest.
He was kicked in the chest by the Qin army, and Cao Jun, who had surrendered with his blade in both hands, fell to the ground.
Before Cao Jun could understand what was going on, Qin Jun, who had raised his foot and kicked him in the heart, had already stepped in front of him, stepped on his front door, held the Pu knife in both hands, and stabbed him fiercely into his lower abdomen.
The sharp Pu knife pierced through the leather armor on Cao Jun's body, inserted through his lower abdomen, and penetrated from behind.
Cao Jun, who was pierced by a knife, lay on the ground, his legs convulsed spasmodically twice, and then he kicked abruptly and cut off his breath.
More than 10,000 Qin troops flocked to the Cao army led by Li Dian and Le Jin from three directions, and another Qin army, which only had a few thousand people, took advantage of the chaos and night outside the city to rush towards the gate of Xiaopei.
"Close the gates!" The officer guarding the city gate noticed that something seemed to be wrong outside the city, and was looking out, when he suddenly saw a Qin army of thousands of people rushing over, and he almost changed his tone in panic, and shouted to the Cao army inside the city gate.
