By the light of the moon, a thousand-strong cavalry team hid by the river five miles away from the city of Bashui County.

The thousand-man cavalry brigade behind him with no end in sight made Diao Jun feel particularly unreal.

"Don't be nervous!" Probably hearing the sound of rapid breathing around him, Cen Pei said softly, "We are only responsible for the response, and we are not directly involved in the battle. The worst-case scenario is that the enemy will come out of the city to attack our feint team, and I will be in front of the company, so you just have to keep up. If we're lucky, we'll have nothing to do!"

"Hmm!" Diao Jun pressed his right hand on the mouth of his wildly beating heart, trying to calm himself.

......Suddenly, a dull sound of drums pierced the night sky, waking up the defenders of the city.

"Enemy attack! enemy attack!!" The soldiers of Gao Guo on the city wall quickly gathered, looking at the long dragon of firelight in the distance and nervous.

Bashui County Taishou Sha Yihe, Pingnan General Zhuo Yan, and Miao County General Mo Like woke up in panic and immediately rushed to the city gate with his generals.

"What's going on?" Above the city gate, General Pingnan Zhuo Yan looked at the approaching firelight in the distance, and his expression was nervous.

"General Zhuo doesn't need to worry!" Sha Yihe immediately said, "If the enemy dares to attack at night, let them have no return." I am not afraid of them!"

As he spoke, the firelight was already very close.

"Archer!" Sha Yihe quickly ordered, and the archers on the city wall brushed their bows and arrows, ready to fight.

The opposing army was about to enter the firing range, and Sha Yihe's raised hand was ready to wave forward.

At this moment, the opposing army suddenly shot countless rockets, forming dazzling sparks in the night.

It's just that these rockets are not far enough to shoot above the city wall at all, drawing a beautiful parabola in the air and falling directly to the ground outside the city wall.

Sha Yihe was puzzled, and when he turned around, he found that Zhuo Yan and Morrico were also confused.

Just as he was thinking that the other party took a step forward, he immediately fired a bow and arrow, but the next moment, he suddenly found that the dense torches began to retreat, and it didn't take long for them to completely disappear into the horizon.

"What's the situation?" Morricot's eyes widened, "and that's it?"

"The enemy was afraid that he wanted to attack him unprepared, but he did not think that we were well defended. Zhuo Yan said, "I hit a nail, so I had to run!"

"I always feel a little weird. Sha Yihe ordered the archers to lay down their weapons and looked into the distance and frowned.

"It's just that the night attack failed, what's the strange thing? There is a false alarm, everyone should go back and rest! Recuperate, there will be a big battle tomorrow!" Zhuo Yanbao returned his sword to the sheath.

"The two generals will go back to rest first, and the officer will look at it for a while. Sha Yihe was still more cautious, so he chose to stay.

After Zhuo Yan and Morrico left, there was no movement for a while, and Sha Yihe also relieved himself, ordered the soldiers to be vigilant and patrol, and turned back.

Not long after I fell asleep, there was another noise of gongs and drums outside, and the horns sounded in unison.

Sha Yihe, Zhuo Yan, and Morrico rushed to the city wall in a panic, and when they saw the enemy attacking again, they immediately ordered to wait for the battle.

This time, however, it was the same, as the opponent stayed out of range of the archers, fired a meaningless rocket near the city gate, and then slowly retreated under the questioning gaze of the defenders.

Once or twice, forget it, and then come every once in a while, and don't really attack the city, just shoot a pointless rocket and run.

The defenders of the city are very annoyed, and if you want to fight, you can fight hard, and you will not come in every time you are on the edge, it is too much! Or go back to sleep and see you on the battlefield tomorrow. You don't sleep yourselves, but you keep harassing us, and you don't let us sleep, are you disgusting?

"What the hell are these bastards going to do?" was woken up several times in a row, and Zhuo Yan's dark circles appeared, and he couldn't sleep at all.

Not only him, but Sha Yihe, Morrico and other generals are also exhausted.

"I can't stand it anymore!" Morrico waved his broadsword angrily, "If they dare to come, I will go out of the city to meet them!"

"No!" Sha Yihe hurriedly persuaded, "The enemy's intentions are unknown, don't move lightly!"

"If this continues, I'm going to be annoyed by them!" said Moricot, angrily, "and won't let people rest?"

"I understand!" a civilian official behind Sha Yihe suddenly said, "Lord Taishou, two generals, this should be the enemy's tired strategy!"

"What do you mean by the tactics of the tired army?" the crowd turned to look at the civilian officials.

"Outside the city, I am afraid that a small number of enemy troops, beating trumpets and shooting arrows, are only harassing us, so that our troops cannot sleep peacefully. The civil officer replied respectfully, "while the main force of the enemy is recuperating in the camp in the distance." In this way, tomorrow our army will be exhausted, but the enemy will be in good spirits, and if we attack the city again, the advantages and disadvantages will inevitably change. ”

"It's too insidious!" Zhuo Yan blew his beard and glared, "Co-authoring is to trick us, won't let us sleep?"

"Then how do we deal with it?" Sha Yihe asked back.

"Yu Taishou!" replied the civil official with a smile, "since you already know that the other party is a tired army, you can't dance with it." You can send a partial division to ambush outside the city, wait for the enemy to harass again, and surround and kill from both sides! Even if it cannot be completely destroyed, it can still make it frightened and dare not commit it again. ”

"Wouldn't it be better to keep the army outside the city and wait for the enemy to come and sweep them all in?" Morrico snorted.

"No," said the civil officer, "the enemy is intent on making me tired, and if I take advantage of the treatment of the army, the gains outweigh the losses! Moreover, the movement of the army is too great to be easily detected by the other side, and it will scare them away." ”

"Makes sense!" Sha Yihe, Zhuo Yan, and Morrico glanced at each other and nodded.

"Then I'll take 1,000 cavalry to ambush outside the city!" said Morricot, "If he dares to come, he will not return!"

"Kill chickens with a knife?" A silver-armored lieutenant general behind him came out with a fist, "The last general is willing to lead the troops!"

"The last general is willing to go with the army!" another young general stepped forward, all of whom were Moricot's right-hand men.

"Good!" Moric laughed, "in that case, send you two to lead 1,000 troops to ambush outside the city, wait for the enemy army to arrive, and kill him without leaving a piece of armor!"

"Wow!!"

"Since the two generals are willing to fight, there is no further ado!" Sha Yihe immediately began to arrange, "Please quickly go out of the city and ambush, and let the enemy army notice." ”

The two lieutenants of Morrico immediately went down the city wall, mobilized their respective armies, and just gathered 1,000 cavalry, called to open the city gate and rushed out at night, and rushed to the groves on both sides of the city.

"Then I'll wait until I go back to the camp to rest, don't care about the enemy's drums and horns, rest tonight, and fight the enemy tomorrow!" Sha Yihe turned his head and said.

"That's right!" Zhuo Yan and Morrico nodded, and each left the city wall with his subordinates, returning to the barracks.

The rest of the city was restored to the rest of the city.

Morricot's two lieutenants lay in ambush and in the woods on either side, hidden in the dark greenery.
