Chapter 236: Big Hole and Small Hole

After all, this area is the place where the Yellow Turban Army is stationed in the camp, when the site was selected, it was specially sent to the nearby radius of dozens of miles to investigate, basically every more obvious terrain has been recorded, and it is not fun to play peek-a-boo here.

The defeated army of the imperial camp was not familiar with the surrounding terrain, although two teams of men and horses were left behind during the period, but the players with the highest rank of the fifth order could not outrun the Yellow Turban Army of the sixth and seventh orders, and they were still caught up by the Yellow Turban Army after dodging all the way, and a duel broke out between the two sides in a valley.

Knowing that there is no way back behind them, the players will fight to the death with the Yellow Turban Army under the command of the main general, because the player's death is not a real death, so everyone is determined to fight with the Yellow Turban Army, anyway, they can be resurrected after half a day, if they can replace a sixth-order Yellow Turban Army before they die, the reward they get can make up for the loss of the level. In the end, the Yellow Turban Army spent a lot of effort to annihilate this imperial army, although the Yellow Turban Army's losses were not much, but in the middle of the night they were temporarily ordered to fight, and they pursued for more than an hour, and fought with the imperial army in the valley for nearly two hours, even the Yellow Turban elite of the sixth or seventh order was also sleepy.

After cleaning up the battlefield, the Yellow Turban Leader asked the Yellow Turban Elite under his command to rest quickly, this time the pursuit battle was too long, if the Yandu County Order sent players to attack at night was just a bait, then their situation was very dangerous now. After the war, the Yellow Turban leader also felt that this pursuit was too risky, and sent many scouts to patrol around to ensure that they would not be ambushed by reinforcements from the imperial army.

After resting for less than three hours, it was already more than seven o'clock in the morning, and the Yellow Turban Leader led the Yellow Turban elite back after the rest, and paid attention to the surrounding movements at any time.

But the strange thing is that they annihilated several small-scale imperial army along the way, but these imperial army were not the remnants of the army that were scattered last night, but marched towards the Yellow Turban camp in an integrated manner.

However, they quickly got rid of this idea, the Yellow Turban Army has three camps, except for the camp that was attacked by night last night, the other two camps are intact, and hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban troops are stationed inside, and there are strong bows and crossbows to defend it, even if someone sends hundreds of thousands of troops to besiege it, it is impossible to break through the camp without a day or several days of fierce fighting.

But when they advanced to the base camp, the more frightened they became, because they met a lot of lone court players on the way, you must know that this is the territory of their Yellow Turban Army, and there is usually no one from the imperial court camp, so at this time, they actually regard this as the territory of the imperial court camp, and wander unscrupulously.

After less than half the journey, the Yellow Turban scout in front came back to report, saying that he had encountered his own soldiers in front, but it was several Yellow Turban generals fleeing with the remnants of the soldiers, looking embarrassed and wanting to see the Yellow Turban leader.

The leader of the Yellow Turbans hurriedly asked people to bring those Yellow Turban generals over, he had almost guessed that something had happened to the base camp by now, but he wanted to know what happened to the base camp during the time of pursuing the imperial army? How did it happen? What is the current situation of battle damage?

These Yellow Turban generals are all high-level or high-level players in his guild, and their combat strength and leadership ability are recognized by everyone, but when they meet today, they have a very depressed and panicked expression, as if they have suffered a great blow in the early hours of this morning.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

"President... Our three battalions have all been lost. Several Yellow Turban generals lowered their heads and did not dare to see people.

"Let's talk about what happened, our camp was not so easy to break, there must have been some accident during the period." The Yellow Turban Leader had a gloomy face, and if it weren't for the words coming from his men, he couldn't believe that the two well-arranged camps would be breached overnight.

Several Yellow Turban generals told what happened last night from their perspectives, but the overall context of what happened was not very different, and the story began after the Yellow Turban leader led the Yellow Turban elite to pursue the remnants of the imperial court.

It turned out that after the Yellow Turban Army set up an ambush in the camp and severely damaged the imperial army, they sent a lot of people to clean up the battlefield and repair the camp, but they were also worried that there would be a second wave of imperial army taking advantage of the chaos to attack at night again, so they also sent a lot of Yellow Turban troops to patrol. According to the Yellow Turban Army who took turns guarding last night, the wall of the camp was destroyed by throwing siege weapons, and when the enemy sneaked to about a thousand meters away from the camp, they were assembling siege weapons, but because the distance was too far away, and the vision at night was not good, the guards could not observe what siege weapons were.

During the Yellow Turban Rebellion, everyone also had a certain understanding of props such as siege weapons, the attack distance of small catapults was about 400 meters, and the attack distance of giant catapults was within 1,000 meters, and the attack distance of ballistas was not much different from that of catapults. In the common sense of ordinary people, it is very rare that siege weapons attack at a distance of more than a thousand meters, because this is too much deterrent on the battlefield, except for those rare and extremely high-quality props. The siege weapons encountered by the Yellow Turban Army at two or three o'clock in the morning exceeded one thousand meters, and it was estimated that it was between 1,100 meters and 1,200 meters, and the ultra-long attack distance made it impossible for the Yellow Turban defenders to make any counterattack.

Since the opponent used siege weapons at about 1,000 meters, he could directly throw items within two or three hundred meters of the camp, and the first to suffer was the place where the Yellow Turban Army rested. Although there was a night attack at ten o'clock last night, the imperial army of the night attack had been defeated, and the Yellow Turban Army of the two camps went back to rest, but when they were still asleep, dozens of cans of tung oil fell from the sky and spilled a large area. There was so much tung oil that fell that some of it spilled on the tents or wooden sheds, and some of it shot down the stove, and the tung oil splashed after the clay pot was broken, instantly igniting the combustibles within a few meters nearby. The tent stained with tung oil ignited a fire in an instant, and the Yellow Turban Army, who had woken up from their deep sleep, had just gotten up, and the fire had already spread, devouring their lives.

Even though the fortifications outside the two camps were well done, because of the spread of the fire, the Yellow Turban Army inside was in chaos, and the tung oil in the sky was still falling, stimulating everyone's amygdala at all times. A quarter of an hour later, the Yellow Turbans, who went to fight the fire, found that the fire had not been alleviated, but that the area on fire had become larger. Seeing that this camp was about to turn into a sea of fire, some Yellow Turban generals made a quick decision and quickly gathered 10,000 or 20,000 troops to kill them, wanting to stop the other party from continuing to throw tung oil, at least they couldn't give the other party a pressure-free output.

But at this time, the enemy changed their strategy and began to attack the wall of the camp, the lethality of their siege weapons was really perverted, only a boulder, the Yellow Turban Army's painstaking and careful reinforcement of the wall could not withstand it, and the affected wall of several meters collapsed. Where the boulder fell, the Yellow Turban Army within more than ten meters was either smashed into meat sauce or flew out upside down under the influence of the shock wave. What's even more frightening is that the hit rate of this siege weapon is a bit ridiculously high, and after two or three rounds, basically a wall has fallen.

The Yellow Turbans, who went to stop them, failed to complete their mission and were violently attacked and annihilated. Later, the enemy army took advantage of the chaos of the Yellow Turban Army and sent several troops to attack the Yellow Turban Camp, because of the loss of the effect of the wall, the enemy army quickly occupied the position on the periphery of the camp, and advanced step by step, trying to trap the Yellow Turban Army in the sea of fire.

Speaking of this, a yellow turban general showed a look of horror on his face, and the picture a few hours ago was still vivid, and said: "At that time, it happened that I led the army to resist the enemy's attack, but the other party was too powerful, especially one of the opponent's generals, it was like a tiger entering the flock, and several of our special generals were killed in a blink of an eye, and forcibly tore a hole in the defense line, and then basically had no power to return to the sky." ”

"You can at least fight them, and I'm even more aggrieved here." Another yellow turban general who was wearing several wounds complained, "A camp is stationed with hundreds of thousands of people, covering an area so large, but in fact, it is only a small area that is on fire." But at that time, there was an invasion of foreign enemies outside, and there was a fire spreading inside, and many of the Yellow Turban troops inside were in chaos, fleeing and trampling in all directions, and with the remnants of the front line retreating, they flocked to the other side, which made people on my side panic. The other party took advantage of the fire to rob and continue to set fires, and too many people poured in the area I was responsible for, causing the fire themselves, and I had no choice but to order the camp to be abandoned. ”

"As you know, President, the area I'm in charge of happens to be in the opposite direction from the camp next door, and you need to make a big detour if you want to escape to another camp." The general gently put his hand near the treated wound, looked at the scrapped armor again, and said indignantly: "The other party is really a good plan, deliberately forcing us in the opposite direction of another camp, but they have set up a net there, and the spearmen and crossbows are all available, and it is conservatively estimated that more than fifty crossbow carts are used. If I hadn't been lucky and better equipped, I had only been hit by a few arrows, otherwise I wouldn't have been left with these holes, but with a large hole that had been pierced by crossbow arrows. 2k reading network
