Chapter 232: Breaking Out
Hua An led the main army, ambushed about 500 paces away from the enemy's arrow tower, and the soldiers in the front row were all dressed in white cloth to cover the soldiers behind.
After the arrangement was made, Hua An and the soldiers closed their eyes and took a nap, and in the second half of the night, half an hour in the morning, Hua An and the soldiers officially launched their actions.
Everyone first quietly touched the position of the enemy's arrow tower at 500 paces, and then lowered their bodies and hidden.
Then, Wang San and Zhao Wu led two soldiers respectively, quietly forced towards the enemy's arrow tower, the six people were dressed in white cloth, just left a few dozen steps, Hua'an was a little unable to see, it seems that the white cloth can indeed be fused with the snow.
Looking at Wang San and the other six people, gradually disappearing, Hua An's heart was always a little uneasy, although he had made sufficient preparations, but if he still couldn't avoid the eyes of the enemy sentry, he would be in trouble.
However, since it has been decided to break through the level, Hua'an will not give up, once Wang San and them are discovered, Hua'an will immediately lead the main force to kill them and forcibly break through.
Wang San and Zhao Wu with four soldiers, step by step quietly approaching the arrow tower, at the beginning, the six people gathered together and walked quickly, when less than 100 steps away from the enemy's arrow tower, the six people immediately divided into two teams, Wang San and Zhao Wu led two soldiers respectively, slowly walked towards the arrow tower in their respective charges.
The snow is no longer very thick, but people will still make a squeaky sound when they step on it, but fortunately, the north wind is blowing very quickly at this time, and the roaring wind covers up the sound made by Wang San and the others when they step on the snow.
But even so, Wang San and Zhao Wu still walked on thin ice and slowly approached the arrow tower, lest they walk fast and be discovered by the enemy sentry.
Twenty steps, ten steps, five steps, three steps, one step, after a nervous cold sweat, Wang San and Zhao Wu arrived directly below the enemy's arrow tower.
The two soldiers in charge of lassing the enemy sentry had already tied the three long wooden sticks in their hands together with ropes, and at the same time put rope sleeves on the top, and slowly stretched out to the top of the arrow tower where the enemy sentry was located.
"Twitter...... two other soldiers, who were responsible for luring the enemy sentries, hid at the bottom of the arrow tower while making the sound of birds.
The enemy sentry, who was watching the campfire in the distance, heard the sound of birds at the bottom of the arrow tower and felt curious, so he poked his head out of the fence and looked down.
At this moment, two soldiers holding long wooden poles immediately put the top sleeve on the head of the enemy sentry, and with a fierce force, the enemy sentry was dragged down from the top of the three-story arrow tower.
The neck of the enemy sentry was strangled, and he didn't even have a chance to shout, so he was unclear ** ground.
The enemy sentry, who was seriously injured with a thud, was killed by Wang San and Zhao Wu on the waiting ground before he could figure out what was going on.
Wang San and Zhao Wu were about to ask the soldiers who knew 'bird language' to inform Hua'an and ask him to immediately lead the main force to come, but they heard a surprised voice from the top of the arrow tower, obviously there was more than one sentry in the enemy arrow tower.
"Okay, how did you fall." The other two sentries looked at the base of the tower, surprised.
The two soldiers with long sticks, who were shocked into a cold sweat, immediately made a decision, stretched out the rope noose to lasso the two enemy general sentinels, and dragged the enemy sentries down the arrow tower, and the two soldiers were killed by Wang Shang and Zhao Wu when they landed.
After waiting for a while, and making sure that there were no enemy sentries on the top of the arrow tower, Wang Shang and Zhao Wu respectively looked at the soldiers who knew the 'bird language' and hurriedly informed Hua'an.
"Chirp, chirp, ......"
The two soldiers, who knew how to 'speak birds', sent a secret signal of the success of the operation to Hua'an, who was 500 paces away, in accordance with the method agreed in advance.
Hearing this, Hua An stretched out his hand and waved lightly, and nearly a thousand men and horses lined up in several columns, quietly attacking the location of the enemy's arrow tower.
At this moment, Wang San and Zhao Wu led two soldiers respectively, and gently pried open the gate at the bottom of the arrow tower with daggers, waiting for the main force led by Hua An to arrive, and they could catch turtles in an urn.
Two hundred, one hundred, fifty, and ten steps, the main force of the capture battalion led by Hua An soon advanced to the bottom of the enemy's arrow tower.
"Wang San, Zhao Wu, you did a good job." Hua An stretched out his thumb and praised a few words, and then divided a hundred soldiers to rush into the two arrow towers and kill the enemy in the arrow towers.
Hua An himself led Thunderstorm, Zhao Wu and the main force of the capture camp to attack the enemy checkpoint across the valley with lightning speed.
At this time, in the first and second floors of the arrow tower, there were thirty enemy archers, they were still immersed in sleep at the moment, and the sudden intrusion of the soldiers of the capture camp made them wake up instantly, but it was too late to resist, and before they could touch their weapons, they had been killed by the soldiers of the capture camp who suddenly broke in.
After killing the enemy archers in the arrow tower, the 100 soldiers of the capture battalion, according to the plan agreed in advance, captured the bows and arrows of the enemy soldiers, occupied the three-story arrow tower, and at the same time bent the bow and arrows, and aimed the arrows at the enemy checkpoint fifty paces away.
Due to the vigilance of the two arrow towers in front, the archers patrolling at the top of the enemy checkpoint had a fluke in their hearts, and after holding out for most of the night, the sky was about to dawn, and these tired soldiers, thinking that the beggar camp in the valley would not attack at this time, so they all leaned on the guardrail and rested, and fell asleep unconsciously.
The distance of fifty steps is very short, Hua An led the main force of the capture camp, and soon ran to the bottom of the enemy level, looking at the locked thick wooden gate, Hua An pulled out the green sword and slashed a few times, in addition to cutting out a terrible scar on the heavy wooden door, the main body of the wooden door was not much damaged, according to this cut, at least for a while, it is obviously impossible to break the door with the green sword, and the enemy soldiers at the top of the level have been alert.
Hua'an decided to adopt the second set of door-breaking plans, looked at the soldiers behind him, and ordered: "Soldiers, knock the gate open, be quick." ”
Thirty sturdy soldiers, clinging to the thick trunks of trees that had been prepared for a long time, slammed towards the gate of the enemy checkpoint.
"Boom, boom......"
The huge crash sound can be heard for at least ten miles, and the soldiers who are sleeping at the top of the level are all awake at this moment, and even in the enemy camp fifty steps behind the checkpoint, all the enemy soldiers are so frightened that they hurriedly get up, panicked to find armor and weapons.
"The Jin army is coming, release the arrows quickly." An enemy soldier who got up was looking at the dense begging battalion soldiers under the checkpoint, his eyes were about to fall out in shock, and he hurriedly ordered his subordinates to release arrows.
But he didn't know that at this moment, as soon as he leaned out, he was targeted by the archers of the begging camp in the arrow tower fifty paces away, and with a 'whoosh', the enemy army had already been hit by an arrow in the chest before he could understand what was going on, and fell from the top of the level.
The thirty enemy archers on the checkpoint, hearing the order, bent their bows and arrows, and were about to release arrows to the soldiers of the begging camp below, when they saw that their team was being shot down under the checkpoint, their hearts couldn't help but be shocked, and before they could figure out what was going on, with a 'whooshing' bow and arrow sound, thirty enemy archers were killed by arrows.
"Click......"
There was a crisp sound of wood breaking, and the heavy wooden door of the checkpoint was slammed open by the soldiers of the begging battalion.
Hua An waved the Qingyu Sword in his hand forward and shouted, "Soldiers, kill them and destroy all enemies." After saying that, the first one rushed out.
"Kill ......"
Nearly 1,000 soldiers of the capture battalion swarmed out from the gate of the checkpoint that was smashed open, killing the enemy camp fifty paces away, and the 100 soldiers occupying the arrow tower, after completely shooting the enemy archers at the top of the checkpoint, ran out of the arrow tower and attacked the enemy camp with the main force.
The strength of the enemy battalion is about 900, and the soldiers of the capture battalion are also more than 900 people, and the strength of the two sides is roughly equal, but the capture battalion is strong in combat and comes prepared, while the enemy soldiers suddenly wake up from their sleep, and have not yet recovered from their sleep, nearly half of the soldiers have not yet found their armor, and the enemy soldiers who have picked up weapons are less than 30 percent, and the most important thing is that the enemy camp is in chaos and cannot organize effective resistance at all.
"Don't panic, guard the camp for me, don't run around." The owner of the enemy battalion shouted loudly in half-clad armor, and even drew his sword, killing several soldiers who did not obey orders and scurried around.
But the captivity camp has already been killed, and it is obviously too late to organize the resistance of his subordinates at this moment, and the chaotic soldiers will not become orderly because of the commander's killing of chickens and monkeys, and the enemy camp suddenly becomes even more chaotic.
Some timid soldiers, immediately throwing away their armor and fleeing through the back door of the main battalion, the few officers of the enemy army could not stop drinking at all.
Seeing that the enemy camp was in chaos, Hua An and the soldiers of the capture battalion under his command were all excited, and everyone shouted and rushed towards the enemy camp.
"Thunderstorm, Zhao Wu, you and your subordinates are outflanked from the left and right sides, Tie Niu, Wang San, you and the rest of the soldiers will follow me to fight from the front." Hua An saw that the enemy soldiers showed signs of fleeing, and hurriedly ordered the division of troops to surround them.
"Kill, leave no one." Hua An roared, and was the first to rush into the enemy camp from the front, and slashed at several enemy soldiers who were trying to resist.
The soldiers behind him were also energetic in killing, scrambling to attack the enemy soldiers, swords and guns intersected, long swords drank blood, and the enemy camp was bleeding like a river for a while, and it was unbearable to see.
The enemy soldiers with weapons in their hands were not at all opponents of the soldiers of the capture battalion, and they were defeated once they fought, and the enemy soldiers who did not have weapons in their hands became lambs to be slaughtered, and they could not escape the fate of being killed whether they escaped or resisted.
Surrounded on three sides by nearly 1,000 soldiers of the capture camp, most of the enemy's 900 soldiers, except for a few who escaped from the camp and ran into the distance, were killed.
At this time, only the enemy battalion owner and dozens of personal soldiers beside him were left in the enemy camp, still struggling to support.
