Chapter 532: Accident
However, this night without moon and stars, reaching out and not seeing five fingers, but it didn't seem to block Li Fuzai's sight, he clenched his fists and looked at the Yongzhou city wall in the distance, only to feel that his face was dry and hot, even if the cold wind blew, it couldn't extinguish the restlessness.
The generals behind were discussing, and someone asked: "Is Yongzhou going to send a letter for help, or is he going to lead the troops out of the city?" β
Another person replied: "The seven or eight thousand troops in it are all relying on the Divine Arm Bow, and now that it has rained for so long, the Divine Arm Bow is no longer powerful, and you didn't see that when you attacked the city this morning, you couldn't shoot people at a distance of a hundred paces?" Where do you dare to lead troops out of the city in the middle of the night! I think it's asking for help! β
Another humane: "It's hard to say, the Jin people have always been cunning, I'm afraid that they are going to use some surprise plan, and they want to attack in the middle of the night, seeing that we are not guarding against it." β
The man in the lead said: "No matter how you raid, you can get three thousand at most, how can you fight?" β
A group of people were talking in a whisper, and it didn't take long for the previous soldier to come back in a hurry, and said: "Tai Lieutenant, there seems to be a sound of horses on the Yongzhou city wall!" β
Li Fuzai calculated the distance in his heart, and felt that half of the way forward was not within the range of the Divine Arm Bow, so he couldn't wait any longer, and while walking forward, he said to the soldier: "Let Cao Erman keep an eye on it to see what they are planning!" β
The soldier ran away at a brisk pace.
Li Fuzai hurriedly walked forward, but before he could reach the front, he saw several figures coming over.
In the middle of the night, everyone was afraid of startling the guards in Yongzhou City, and none of them raised torches, until everyone got closer, Li Fuzai finally recognized that it was Cao Erman who came to greet him personally.
He was about to speak, but he heard Cao Er say solemnly: "Taiwei, it seems that a lot of things are hanging down in the city!" Because they were far away, and it was dark, they couldn't see clearly, but only those who were close said that they seemed to be many large baskets, and horses could be heard barking in them! β
Li Fuzai was taken aback, and then confirmed: "Horse barking? β
Cao Erman hurriedly said: "Exactly!" Captain, isn't there a night attack in the city? β
Li Fuzai sneered and said, "Forgive them for not having the guts!" The city of Yongzhou is full of Yunnan horses, and it is difficult to carry a woman, but it is not difficult to eat meat, where there are many war horses, at most three or four hundred can be made......"
As he spoke, he couldn't help but feel a little empty in his heart.
Guangnan is mountainous, Jiaozhi marches, generally encounter infantry, rarely see cavalry, last time outside the city of Yongzhou by Wang Miyuan led two hundred soldiers to kill for a while, many people died, has provoked a lot of soldiers to chill, at this time if the real city and put two hundred cavalry down, everyone comes and goes like flying, if it is killed into the camp, this midnight, even if the lamp is lit, it is inevitable that there will be a time when you can't see clearly, how can you stop it?
But his own family was standing in front of the battle, and if he was careless, he couldn't hide in time......
He paused for a moment, and suddenly shouted, "Cao Erman!" β
"The last general!" Cao Erman hurriedly stepped forward.
Li Fuzai immediately ordered: "You take those 2,000 soldiers, put on shields, go to the south gate of Yongzhou, take a longbow and shoot them!" Don't give the Jin people to come! β
Cao Er hurriedly clenched his fists and said, "The last general will obey orders!" β
Sure enough, as he spoke, he went to lead the troops in front.
In the middle of the night, when I wanted to come to the Yongzhou city wall, I was afraid of raising a torch, so I wanted to tell Jiaozhi in the distance to see that something was wrong. And in the Jiaozhi camp, in order to make the city think that he had not noticed it, he did not reveal a word.
Both places are quiet.
Li Fuzai has led the troops for many years, quelled the rebellion in Jiaozhi country, and also attacked the city, and has seen a lot of big scenes, but I don't know if it is too quiet at the moment, he is actually a little nervous, he only feels that his palms are a little sweaty, and his heart beats two beats faster than before.
He swallowed his saliva and was about to take two steps forward, when he suddenly heard an order from someone in the distance, shouting from afar: "Shoot arrows!" β
As soon as the sound came out, the sound of ten thousand arrows breaking through the air could be heard, and I don't know where they all went, only the sound of arrows hitting objects was heard, and a few scattered neighing of war horses.
I was hit!
There was a lot of excitement before the Jiaozhi formation.
In front of him, he hurriedly gave another order, and another wave of arrows could be shot again.
At this time, the Yongzhou city wall seemed to have finally reacted, only to hear a human voice, followed by the familiar sound of wooden feather arrows breaking through the air.
For more than half a month, the Jiaozhi soldiers were already very afraid of this sound, and hurriedly hid behind their shields.
It has been raining for days, even if it is deliberately preserved, the Divine Arm Bow still has no power in the past, and the power of shooting down is only a few points more powerful than ordinary arrows, as long as it is well hidden, the shield is enough to stop it.
Dodging the invincible bow of the divine arm, the soldiers of Jiaozhi seemed to be greatly excited, and the commander in front of them shouted loudly, and ordered the arrows to be released, half of the soldiers raised their bows and shot at the head of the city, and half of the soldiers shot at the men and horses who were hung down from the city.
Cao Erman was in the middle of the formation, and when he heard the wailing of the horses under the city, he couldn't help but be a little excited, but he felt as if something was wrong.
After seven or eight volleys, he finally sensed that something was wrongβso many arrows were fired, and all he could hear was the neighing of horses, and there was no sound at all.
It doesn't make sense!
Unless only horses are put down in Yongzhou City, but why is this?
The two have been shooting at each other for a long time, and the sky is gradually turning white.
It has rained for seven or eight days in a row, and today is a rare omen of a sunny day.
Cao Erman took a few steps forward with wide eyes, but sure enough, he saw that he was not dreaming, and something under the city wall was slowly hanging again.
It was still dark and he couldn't see clearly, and it wasn't until the things were raised high that he finally confirmed it.
By this time, not only had he discovered it, but many of the cochin soldiers in the formation had also discovered it.
It was vague and vague, one after another large baskets, half a zhang long, half a person high, I don't know what material it was made of. The basket was full of arrows, but there were scattered horses inside, and the horses were very short, not like war horses, but ordinary Yunnan horses for carrying goods......
Cao Erman couldn't wait to change his name at this time, calling it Cao Khanman, and sure enough, he was full of sweat, soaked in sweat in his armor.
After wasting so many arrows and shooting for a long time, don't say that not a single soldier in the city was injured, and even the war horses were fine!
This Dian horse may have been slaughtered, but when it is pulled up, it will be marinated to make the condiment in the rice noodles!
His head was covered with cold sweat, and he hurriedly grabbed a soldier behind him and said, "Go and report to the captain!" β
