26. Deal with sudden attacks

After receiving the order, the general immediately ordered his subordinates to dig a trap in front of the commander's tent, and arranged a tripwire on the way in and out of the camp, everything was in order, and it was already dark.

The general ordered all the tents to be lit up, especially in the marshal's tent, which increased the brightness of the past, and the entire barracks were brightly lit and bright.

The general climbed up to the watchtower, glanced around, the low clouds covered the not very bright crescent, looking at the crescent moon to the west, he concluded that it was in his twenties today. In the faint light, you can only see the outlines of the surrounding woods and mountains. The whole world is hidden in this swarthy atmosphere.

His piercing gaze was fixed on a point in the darkness of the night, and by the impression of the day, it was as if he had seen the enemy sneaking into the creek in front of him, and burrowing into the woods......

At this moment, five or six pheasants flew out of the opposite woods, and they didn't know where they were going.

The cry of the pheasant suddenly tightened the strings of the general's vigilance. His right hand rested on the handle of his sword, and as long as there was any movement, he could give orders according to the situation, and direct his men to fight the enemy.

But remembering the arrangement of the marshal, "You can only call the military camp that the enemy enters to come to attack, and you can't go out of the military camp to meet the attack." "I had to go down the watchtower. He said to the sentry: "Pay attention to the movement around you and report the situation in time." Only then did he get off the watchtower and prepare to meet the enemy.

The general told the marshal about this, and the marshal was drinking with several generals in the big tent, and when he heard this, he immediately laughed happily, "Good! He poured the wine from his glass into his stomach and said to his subordinates: "We will meet the enemy at once, and when we have destroyed the enemy, we will drink the celebratory wine!" ”

Suddenly, everyone went into combat readiness. I waited for a moment and didn't move. One of the generals couldn't hold his breath and shouted, "What's going on?" After waiting for a long time and not seeing anyone, I definitely won't come. ”

When the marshal heard this, he also felt reasonable, and secretly thought, this group of enemy troops must have known that we had an ambush, went elsewhere, or canceled the operation. He said to everyone: "Except for the patrols and sentry posts, the rest of the people sleep. ”

As soon as the marshal lay down, the general ran over and said to him: "Dashuai, hurry up, there is a situation!" ”

At this moment, it is the third watch, and people are trapped and haunted.

"What's the matter?" The handsome man yawned, a little unhappy, and scolded in his heart: "Why did I use such a waste, and come to me for anything." But he didn't curse it.

"There is a situation. Two more pheasants flew out of the woods. "The general was out of breath, and he had run down from the watchtower.

Helplessly, the big marshal got up, came to the outside of the tent, and immediately called the sleeping people again, and the nerves of preparing for war tightened again.

After waiting until the fourth watch, there was no news, and the marshal suddenly came to the fire and gave an order, "Except for those who patrol and stand guard, the rest of the personnel sleep." ”

When it was almost the fifth watch, the marshal was awakened by the sound of the commotion outside the tent and the sound of the horn of the alarm. The handsome man got up in a hurry and put on his armor. The general came running in out of breath, he had just run off the watchtower.

"Big marshal, it's not good, there are dozens of people surrounding our barracks."

When the commander heard this, he had long forgotten the plan he had planned, and hurriedly shouted: "Order the archers to shoot the enemies who are surrounding the barracks, and never let them come near." ”

The general immediately ran out and gave the order, "All archers ready, shoot the enemy who is coming around!" As soon as he finished speaking, the archers fired their arrows at the figures that had surrounded them.

The figures fell and came up, and shot four or five batches until they were gone.
