Chapter 172: Night Attack (Part II)

The unknown is mysterious. In the face of mysterious things, some people are afraid, and some people are curious. Most of the Wei troops were very afraid of Wei Yan's subordinates, who could come and go freely in the dark, and only a few people were curious.

Cao Zhen held on to the battlements, looked at the chaotic torches of the cavalry who had stopped the pursuit in the distance, and frowned: "Uncle Wu, can Weishenme Wei Yan's people come and go freely in the dark?" ”

Du Shu raised his head, looked at the moon that had disappeared, and frowned. When Wei Yan came, the sky was not completely dark, and there was still half a moon in the sky, but only half a moon was not enough to march, and Wei Yan's ability to fight at night was still amazing, not to mention that it was pitch black now.

But he couldn't say nothing, he knew that Cao Zhen was also very frightened now and needed someone to comfort him, while the soldiers next to him were even more frightened, and he needed someone to explain the situation with a reason, whether this explanation was correct or not.

"I think they should also take a risk, send people to survey the terrain beforehand, and then march according to the memory route."

Cao Zhen nodded, although he felt that this truth didn't make much sense, but he could only explain it like this. Before he figured out the details of his opponent, he couldn't rush into action, but just sent a lot of scouts to find out the news.

It didn't take long for Xiahou Ba to return with those heavy losses of cavalry. He also brought back a wire half the diameter of a bamboo chopstick, with sticky blood stains on the wire and a white bone residue.

"What is this?" Cao Zhen asked puzzled.

"This is the weapon of the Shu Han army between the two trees, and the cavalry was hit by this way, and the first few war horses died before they could see the situation clearly." Xiahou Ba recounted what he had just seen, and when he recalled the scene just now, he was still a little frightened. The necks of several war horses were broken in unison, as if they had been cut off with sharp weapons, and the wounds were smooth and neat. The knight on horseback was also very badly wounded, and he searched for a long time before he found this kind of wire tied to the trees on both sides. After being rammed by several horses in succession, the wire broke off, bounced back, and wrapped around the tree. If it's not an accident, it's really not easy to spot.

Cao Zhen was taken aback. In the dark, such a weapon is a deadly specter for cavalry. This is obviously a unique weapon set up against the most powerful cavalry of the Wei army, and the thought of the cavalry suddenly being in a different place in the gallop, Cao Zhen's hand trembled involuntarily, and the idea of sending someone to continue the pursuit disappeared without a trace.

"Guard the camp, count the losses, and wait until dawn to make a calculation."

"Whoa."

After being busy all night, the Wei army generals, who are now a little disgraced, agreed to the promise. Retreated. Cao Zhen held the wire tightly, looked at the dark sky outside, and was speechless for a long time.

In his heart, there was a faint uneasiness.

Just when Cao Zhen was worried at the head of the city, Wei Yan led his subordinates through a rapid march for more than half an hour. Rushed to the vicinity of Zhangyangchi. The fiery red sun had just shown the horizon, and the Wei army in Zhangyangchi was making breakfast, and the wisps of cooking smoke were swayed by the morning breeze, turning into a cloud of clear smoke in the air, and the fog above Zhangyangchi was mixed together, and the smoke was ethereal, quite a bit of immortal atmosphere.

Wei Jun was very relaxed, they didn't know about the sneak attack on Pucheng, and while making breakfast, they looked at the sun on the horizon, complaining that it was another hot day that was too hot to breathe. The cavalrymen were washing their horses by the water, and their hands and feet were quickly packing up their utensils, allowing their horses to graze on the grass on the shore.

Captain Xiao Feng rode on the back of the yellow horse in his heart, grabbed the horse's mane with one hand, shook the horsewhip with the other, and proudly showed off his jishu riding a bareback horse to the guards around him. Galloping on unsaddled horses requires a high level of horsemanship, which even the black knights may not be able to do. Xiao Feng showed this hand, which was enough to impress those barbarians.

Xiao Feng was very proud and very sad, if he had such riding skills back then, in the face of the Ma Jiajun who dominated the cavalry, he would not have left his comrades and turned around and ran. It was a time when he abandoned his comrades, and since then, he has never been a deserter again, and he miraculously survived, and because he never gave up the reputation of his comrades-in-arms, he won the respect and trust of his comrades-in-arms, accumulated military merits, and was promoted to captain.

He is very satisfied, with his identity as a white wave thief, being able to lead thousands of soldiers is already a blessing in his previous life.

Riding is Xiao Feng's headache, after more than 20 years of hard training, now his riding skills are no worse than those of the Wuhuan people, if it is placed in the past when Emperor Wu was alive, he is fully qualified to be selected to be selected to ride the tiger and leopard.

Xiao Feng galloped up a small earthen hill, looking into the distance, and was in a comfortable mood. However, the next moment, his mood sank to the bottom.

Looking into the distance, he saw a group of foot soldiers rapidly approaching the large camp by the pool. They did not raise battle flags, they moved quickly, almost wildly. In front of them, a scout who was lying in ambush outside the camp was fleeing, but only a few paces away was knocked down by a sharp arrow.

Xiao Feng was taken aback, this group of people was obviously not his own people, and their goal was also very clear, that is, the big camp on the shore. The camp had just woken up from its slumber in the early morning, and many of them were still semi-conscious, unaware that danger was approaching.

Xiao Feng didn't have time to think about where these enemies came from at this moment, he immediately urged his horse to rush down the earthen hill, and while beating his horse and galloping, he yelled at the guards in the distance: "Enemy attack-enemy attack-"

When the guards saw his appearance, they didn't understand for a while, and when they came back to their senses, Xiao Feng had already rushed to the front, he ignored those guards, and urged the horse to go straight to the camp gate. The soldiers on the gatehouse were handing over shifts, some were groggy, some were dazed, chatting at the gate of the camp, and there was no one on the gatehouse.

"Enemy attack!" Xiao Feng was furious, waved his horsewhip, and whipped fiercely at a soldier who was leaning against the camp gate to brag: "Quickly beat the drum and call the police!" ”

The soldier was inexplicably drawn, lowered his head, and was just about to salute, when he heard the word enemy attack, he jumped up, instinctively rushed to the gatehouse, put his hand on the pergola, looked around, and saw the enemy rushing wildly, and immediately gasped, turned around and picked up the drum pole, and vigorously sounded the war drum for the alarm.

"Knock knock...... Knock knock knock ......" The rapid sound of war drums sounded, which immediately knocked out the lazy atmosphere in the camp, although these Wei elites did not understand that there would be an enemy suddenly appearing in Weishenme, but they still immediately took action, rushed to their superiors, urgently assembled, and prepared for battle.

Xiao Feng jumped off the horse, and the guards ran over panting, one of them threw the saddle on the horse's back, and the others brought Xiao Feng armor and some helped him get weapons. Xiao Feng quickly put on his clothes, but looking at the chaotic camp, his heart still kept sinking.

These warriors are elite enough, but it is impossible for so many people to enter the battle state without a quarter of an hour, and the enemy has already arrived outside the main camp, it is impossible to give them a quarter of an hour, and the next moment, they will rush into the main camp and kill the killers.

It's a catastrophe!

The more Xiao Feng thought about it, the more frightened he became, and suddenly threw it at the helmet and roared: "Everyone, immediately take your weapons and stand up to meet the enemy." ”

The warrior who was putting on the armor woke up to the fact that the enemy was already in front of him, and there was still time to put on the armor. They quickly took out their weapons and followed Xiao Feng out of the camp. They had just rushed to the gate of the main camp, and the enemy had already arrived.

"Attack!" Wei Yan couldn't help but secretly praise himself as he looked at the Wei troops who rushed out of the camp without even wearing armor. He just saw the Wei army galloping wildly on a bareback horse, saw him rush into the camp, and then the war drums of the alarm sounded, announcing that the surprise attack had turned into a state of strong attack, and now he saw that in order to seize time, he ordered his subordinates to go out of the camp to meet the enemy without armor, and he was very satisfied with the reaction speed and emergency response ability of the Wei general who had never met.

However, satisfaction is satisfaction, but he has no mercy, and while running, he raised his crossbow, pulled the crossbow machine, and shot several sharp arrows.

The running Wei family soldiers suddenly dispersed, turning from a long snake formation into a fan-shaped attack formation, like a swept frenzy, surging towards those Wei soldiers who couldn't even stand in formation.

"Kill!" Wei Wu jumped up, smashed a halberd with his shield, and slashed down with all his right hand with his sword, slashing his opponent with one sword, crashing into the enemy group. The knife fell in his hand, and he killed three people in a row in the blink of an eye. The Wei soldiers were in shock, and there was a big gap in the formation, Wei Yan immediately seized this opportunity, and rushed in with his personal guards, quickly expanding the gap.

Wei Wu was like a bamboo, and it didn't take much effort to kill in front of Xiao Feng. Xiao Feng was frightened by this enemy with a bloody face, but at a distance of more than a dozen steps, this enemy actually killed eight people in one go, and every time the battle knife was waved, it would bring up a puddle of blood, and what surprised Xiao Feng even more was that he did not slow down in the battle formation, and all the soldiers who stopped in front of him were cut down to the ground by him like chopping wood.

Xiao Feng was a lieutenant who was killed by ordinary soldiers, although he was nervous, he did not mess up, he held the knife in both hands, raised it high, roared, and slashed at Wei Wu.

Wei Wu saw that this Wei general was amazing, and he suddenly came to his senses, he did not avoid it, roared in a low voice, raised the shield on his shoulder with his left hand, held the knife in his right hand, and pushed it from bottom to top.

With a loud "boom", Xiao Feng's war knife slashed against Wei Wu's shield and rebounded, and the huge recoil force hit him back a step. Wei Wu only froze for a moment, and the battle knife in his right hand suddenly appeared in front of Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng was taken aback, at this moment his war knife was shocked by Wei Wu, and the empty door in front of his chest was exposed, and he didn't have time to react at all, watching Wei Wu's war knife rise up, splitting his lower abdomen, the tip of the knife swept past his chin, and a stream of blood arrows spurted out.

Before he could react, another enemy collided head-on, and at that moment, his guards also reacted, roaring and pounced on him, blocking in front of him.

"Don't fall in love with the war, grab the water village! Burn the ship! Wei Yan let out a loud shout, stopping Wei Wu's idea of killing this Wei general, and strode through Xiao Feng's battle formation, heading straight to the water village in Zhangyang Pond.
