Chapter 217: An End No One Expected

The night is coming quietly, not only the single thunder in the gate is counting on the arrival of night, but also the shock outside the gate is also looking forward to it.

After the scout returned to report the situation in the pass, this anticipation became more and more urgent. Because of the situation in the city, she vaguely felt that it was not impossible to win this battle.

As soon as night fell, Shan Lei came to the gate of the city, and not long ago, he received a reply from Mo Wuji.

Mo Wuji claimed: Whether to fight or not to fight is all up to Shan Lei, and now he is in the city with a single thunder, and the grasp of the fighter should not ask him that Mo Wuji, who is far away in Dongling Mountain, is.

The soldiers are eager to fight, and it is impossible for Shan Lei not to ignore this, since Mo Wuji is not opposed to fighting a battle, with his absolute superiority, he has no reason to be cowardly.

Shan Lei looked at the dense tents between the city and the checkpoint, and his confidence was high.

There is no way to hold an army of 500,000 people in the city, so Shan Lei let them camp on their own between the checkpoint and the city, once Mo Wuji orders the general attack on the Chu King City, they can go to the battlefield as soon as possible.

The soldiers were still very familiar with this supreme commander who had left the city, but they were used to falling into the grass, far less cramped and cautious than the other soldiers were when they saw their commanders, and some of them were bold, and even talked to Shan Lei about their favorite nonsense on weekdays.

Shan Lei also knew the nature of their urine, and laughed it and walked towards the depths of the tent group. It was already dark, and the soldiers were fast, so he had to hurry up and arrange manpower to fight this battle.

Even if he felt that this battle could be completely crushed, there was no need for any arrangement.

Zeng Shaoqiu led a group of large and small officers to sit in the tent, looked at Shan Lei who was sitting in the first place with a slightly cruel smile, and said, "I'll arrange people, this time I'm going to have a good time." ”

Shan Lei nodded: "I still want to remind you, even if you have an absolute advantage, don't take it lightly, I have already found out that the woman who led the enemy is a woman who even Mr. praises her intelligence." ”

When this group of people heard Shan Lei and others mention the so-called gentleman many times, their ears were almost cocooned, and they said disapplaudedly: "Yes, I want to see what she can turn over from 10,000 to 500,000." ”

Shan Lei also wanted to admonish them again, they should not underestimate the opponent at any time, but there was a commotion outside the tent, Shan Lei frowned, the bandits are always like this, unorganized and undisciplined, if it weren't for Mo Wuji's request, he really didn't

I want to lead such a team.

"Someone. ”

The person who came in was Shan Lei's own soldier, obviously knew Shan Lei very well, and as soon as he entered the door, he announced: "Many lights suddenly rose outside the gate, and the soldiers were amazed and gathered together to watch. ”

Shan Lei's brows furrowed even deeper, there were Chu soldiers stationed outside the gate, and the lights were on? Shan Lei didn't know what they were doing, so he immediately said to everyone: "Everyone, follow me out to have a look." ”

As soon as he walked out of the big tent, Shan Lei saw a little spark in the sky, which was still far away, and the lights were looming, but they also covered the entire sky.

At this time, one of the officers who came out with Shan Lei said: "I heard that the people of Chu love to worship the dead souls with the lamps of the ascending heaven, do they know that their time is short, and they pay tribute to themselves in advance?"

There was a burst of laughter, not only the officers, but also many soldiers, but Shan Lei did not laugh, he faintly felt that things were not so simple.

"Huh, the fires are coming, and they're so fast. ”

When Shan Lei heard this, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly asked, "What kind of wind is it tonight?"

The soldier replied honestly: "Southwest wind." ”

"Oops. Everyone, tell everyone to leave the camp and take refuge in the city. Shan Lei looked extremely anxious, he suddenly understood what the other party was going to do, if the other party really succeeded, he would become a laughing stock and a stepping stone to achieve the prestige of others.

If it were any of the other troops under Mo Wuji's seat, I am afraid that as long as Shan Lei just spoke out, the order would be well executed, but it was this group of bandits, and the order was forbidden, which had never been their style, so that they didn't feel the anxiety in Shan Lei's tone at all, and asked casually: "General, what's wrong?"

An invisible anger erupted from Shan Lei's heart: "If you are told to go, you will go quickly! What are you doing? Didn't you hear the order?"

The person who had just asked was obviously not convinced, and was about to refute a few words, but was stopped by Zeng Shaoqiu: "Yes, general, let's do it." ”

"Quick!" Shan Lei said hurriedly, turning around and walking to the tent behind him.

There was no time to waste, or it would be too late, and he kept praying in his heart, hoping that it would be too late.

"Big brother, look at him like that, he really thinks of himself as a general?

Whose territory is this. Big brother, why did you stop me just now?"

Zeng Shaoqiu looked at the back of Shan Lei leaving, and said: "General Shan rarely has such a gaffe, it seems that something big has really happened, go, do what he says." ”

Zeng Shaoqiu's prestige in this group of people is still not small, and what he said is much better than Shan Lei, and immediately some people walked towards their respective tent groups.

It's just that the wind is blowing very tightly tonight, and the lights will soon be approaching the sky above Shan Lei.

Shan Lei had already climbed the high wall of the checkpoint at this time, and behind him was a row of archers, about 2,000 people, all of whom were his own soldiers, and all the troops he could mobilize now.

The lights floating from Chu Bing's side were getting brighter and brighter, and Shan Lei could already see clearly what those lights were.

The Chu soldiers carried cloth supported by branches, as if they were equipped with a pair of wings, and glided quickly through the air, and the firelight was the torches they held in their hands.

Shan Lei glanced behind him ugly, his order was not carried out decisively, the soldiers swallowed slowly, not knowing that the danger was coming, Shan Lei's heart was cold to the extreme, sighed, and muttered: "If it is any other team here, it will not make your plan succeed." ”

Then, he was shocked and shouted, "Everyone, wait until the enemy is close before shooting." ”

The enemy is at a high altitude, and the range of the bow and arrow is greatly reduced, and only when the enemy is completely close can he have a chance to shoot them down, but at that time, with these 2,000 archers, how can he stop them? Shan Lei has understood at this moment, but he is just doing his best, the outcome has been decided, and he will eventually become a stepping stone and a laughing stock for others in the future.

Finally, the people below the level also discovered the figure hidden in the fire in the starry sky, and at this time, even the most stupid people know what the enemy is up to, and the tents are connected everywhere, and it is a good time to set fire.

Zeng Shaoqiu shouted suddenly: "Everyone, hurry up and leave the tent and go to the open field, the enemy will attack." ”

The scene is even more chaotic, they are bandits, they are in the grass for their lives, they care most about their own lives, once their lives are threatened, they completely forget that they are numerous, they can fight back, but run around, angry, like a flock of lambs to the slaughter.

Shan Lei sighed heavily, I am afraid that leaving the city will be lost in a situation that no one expected.
