The starry night is quiet.

The vanguard of the Japanese invaders quickly and quietly advanced in the darkness in the field outside the west gate of Hirono Prefecture.

Similar to Guo Jia's expectations, in this sneak attack, the Japanese gathered more than 5,000 high-level special arms forwards, led by the main general Miura Eisuke himself, and quickly advanced in the front;

With the remaining nearly 60,000 intermediate special troops as the Chinese army, led by Deputy General Watanabe Yoto, they slowly followed as a response force.

In order to ensure the success of the sneak attack, all the Japanese soldiers basically achieved the horse rank and the human rank.

Tonight, the sky is clear and the road is white, the climate is cool, and it is suitable for marching.

Along the way, the Japanese army advanced quickly and efficiently, until the scouts who were exploring the way ahead, and in the dark night, there was a terrible scream.

"Alert!" Eisuke Miura shouted in a low voice.

Before the words fell, the sound of bows and crossbows firing sounded all around, followed by screams!

"Damn, it's ambushed!" Eisuke Miura scolded in his heart as he struggled to knock off a thick crossbow arrow with his waist knife.

He looked around, but there were no torches around him, and he couldn't tell how many enemies were in ambush. I just vaguely felt that there were crossbow arrows shooting from all directions.

The only thing that can be judged is that almost every tree has become an arrow tower guarded by the enemy!

In the plains, the hazy figure of the Japanese under the starlight has become a living target.

"Bend down, retreat!" Looking at his subordinates who kept falling, Eisuke Miura's heart was like a knife! This is a high-level special class, each of which is extremely expensive, and must not be consumed on this battlefield where even the shadow of the enemy cannot be seen.

To the horror of the Wakos, they had just begun to retreat when a wave of rockets struck!

When a rocket with a burning cloth tied to the fire oil was fired into the group of pirates, it fell to the ground and burned, and the cat's waist became a clear target.

"Retreat! Fall back! Hurry up! Hurry up! Eisuke Miura couldn't take care of the cat's waist anymore, so he took the lead and turned around and ran backwards!

The rockets of the Zhenbei Army did not stop, and after three consecutive rounds, more than 100,000 burning rockets not only made the strikers of the Japanese Invaders clearly exposed to the field of vision and range of the Zhenbei Army; Even the ranks of the Chinese army that came to support them were burning with rockets.

Now it can be seen clearly, it turns out that the Zhenbei army is ambushed on both sides, and the Japanese are surrounded on three sides in a U-shape. Now, with the U-shaped base retreating, how can they avoid attacks from both sides?

Under the orders of the Japanese generals, the Japanese army successively adopted countermeasures such as bending down and retreating, retreating while extinguishing fires, and resisting with shields, but after little success, there were not many options left for the Japanese invaders.

Either hasten the rout, or simply pounce on the enemy in the darkness, in an attempt to die and kill the enemy.

At this time, there is only about half an hour before dawn, if the whole army breaks and flees, in this flat field, the enemy will be chased all the way from dark to dawn, and under the demoralization and exhaustion, the whole army is likely to be annihilated!

If you lunge at an enemy in the dark, you are not sure how many enemies you can kill, but in terms of the killing effect alone, it is definitely much better than fleeing all the way.

If each is described in one word, the rout can be described as "embarrassed", while the counterattack can be described as "tragic".

Thinking about this, Eisuke Miura made up his mind: "Stop retreating!" Rocket fire back! Find your own target and kill the enemy! Never die! ”

This group of pirates is indeed fierce!

Following Eisuke Miura's orders, the remnants of the Japanese army also fired rockets at the perimeter in order to expose the enemy forces.

It should be said that this move still achieved a certain effect, and the occasionally exposed Zhenbei army was soon set on fire by the Japanese invaders.

At the same time, several Japanese people cooperated, two or three people covered with shields, and two or three people hid behind to shoot arrows, and quickly forced towards the ambush of the Zhenbei army on the left and right sides of the darkness.

There were also some archers who shot at the Zhenbei Army in the canopy, and fought back with dense bows and arrows.

In the darkness, the screams of casualties of the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army began to be heard.

…

Whether the Japanese invaders fled or counterattacked, it was all within Guo Jia's expectations.

Therefore, according to the pre-planned tactical arrangement, the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army still methodically hid in the small bunker, using bows and arrows, bed crossbows, etc., to shoot at the fierce pirates!

At this time, the traps, trenches, low fences, and small obstacles that the Zhenbei Army had arranged in advance in front of the ambush place all played a great role in delaying the enemy! At least give the ambushed Zhenbei Army two more rounds of shooting opportunities!

Although the Japanese have already paid considerable attention to defense, it is still possible to suffer two or three casualties after ten arrows. You know, this is a high-level special class, an intermediate special class, not an ordinary cannon fodder soldier! Two more rounds of firing will certainly greatly reduce the casualties of our officers and men in the event of a short hand-to-hand encounter after a while.

The vanguard of the Japanese Kou were all high-level special soldiers, because they were worried that their close combat would lead to a large number of casualties among the Beiwei army, so when they saw that they killed about twenty meters in front of their own position regardless of casualties, Dian Wei was the first to pounce and shouted: "Kill!" ”

"Kill!" Thousands of Iron Eagle Warriors put away their bows and arrows, shields in their left hands, and broadswords in their right hands, and pounced on the Japanese Invaders.

And the Beiwei army led by Zhao Yun, Cao Xing and other generals still hid behind and gave the enemy an arrow. In particular, Zhao Yun and Cao Xing, who have master-level archery skills, directly named the generals of the Japanese Kou.

It wasn't until the enemy's middle-level special troops also rushed to more than ten meters in front of the ambush position that Zhao Yun, Cai Hui, Wan Hao, Cao Xing and others rushed out of the ambush and fought to the death with the enemy!

…

At the same time, Guo Jiazheng, Gao Shun, Zhou Tai, Xu Huang, Zhang Liao, etc., stood on the tower of the West Gate City, paying attention to the fight outside the city from afar!

"This group of robbers is really fierce, they were ambushed in the dark, they didn't collapse, and they dared to fight back!" Zhou Tai sighed.

"If this continues, the casualties of our army will not be small." Zhang Liao was worried.

Being prepared to fight unprepared, and causing a large number of casualties, is indeed not the outcome that Guo Jia and others want to see. Although the casualties of the Japanese may have been several times that of the Zhenbei army.

At this time, the sky was already dark, and the sound of killing in the distance became louder and louder.

Feeling that the eyes of all the generals were looking at him, Guo Jia's thin body straightened, and his voice was solemn: "Zhang Liao, Zhou Tai listen to the order!" The two of you each led 10,000 cavalry of the Weiwei Army, and pursued all the way out of the West Gate, and if the enemy escaped from the border, he would directly collect his troops and not chase again! ”

"No!" Zhang Liao and Zhou Tai excitedly hugged their fists and went down to the city.

The cavalry of the Beiwei Army, who were waiting to be answered, were already waiting behind the West City Gate.

Zhang Liao and Zhou Tai each rushed to a 10,000-strong formation, took the reins from the guards, turned over on their horses, and shouted, "Brothers, follow me to kill devils!" ”

"Kill the devil! Kill the devil! "The sound of killing in the city shook the sky!

The West City Gate was opened, and Zhou Tai took the lead and rushed out.

Immediately after, the sound of thousands of galloping horses filled the wilderness.

The Japanese who were fighting were terrified, and finally some people couldn't help but turn around and flee.

The embankment of thousands of miles was destroyed in the anthill, and in this bad situation, some people took the lead, and naturally some people followed, even if Eisuke Miura and other generals slashed and killed a few fleeing soldiers in a row, they could not stop the rout. In the end, he had to turn around and run away with the crowd.

At this point, the entire Zhenbei Army has formed a momentum of pursuit by the whole army!

The die is cast!

It was already dawn, Guo Jia was on the head of the city, looking at Gao Shun, Xu Huang and other eager soldiers, lazily covered his yawning mouth with his right hand, and said: "These widows are really tormenting, so I haven't slept all night!" Well, I'll go catch up on sleep, you guys step up your vigilance, and then send some people out to clean up the battlefield. ”

With that, he dragged his thin body and slowly descended the city tower.

Huang Xu followed closely behind.
