Chapter 329: Surprise Attack
"Brother Long doesn't seem to be in good spirits. Early the next morning, I received a notice from Zhao Yulong that Hu Yun and Meng Liang had come to the camp.
"Yes, I didn't sleep well last night, because I was woken up by a horse barking. I think Ellie should know!" As a result, the hot soup in Ellie's hand, Zhao Yulong's eyes looked over.
"What do I know?" Seemingly startled by the burning gaze, Ellie didn't say much, but her expression looked a little nervous.
"Yes, it's you! The tent you're in is the closest to the stable, are you sure you didn't hear the loud horse chirping last night?" At this time, Zhao Yulong had already taken a few sips of hot soup and put it back in Ellie's hand.
Eating and drinking like this is just to taste a taste, and naturally it doesn't take too much. Therefore, it is okay to drink one or two sips of this soup, but seeing that Zhao Yulong only drank such a little, Ellie's eyes showed a trace of disappointment.
"I slept so hard last night, I didn't hear anything, and I didn't wake up. As a result, Ellie put it on the table, and then knelt down in front of Zhao Yulong.
"Yes? I slept too hard, yes. You slept well, and the little horse chirping was nothing. It's just that I'm different, you know? Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too clear-headed, and at night I always think about all the things that happened during the day, all the people I've seen. While it makes it easier for me to be successful, it makes it hard for me to fall asleep. ”
Saying that, Zhao Yulong sighed, and in this low morning, this breath turned into white mist and drifted towards the outside of the tent.
After the white mist dissipated, Zhao Yulong stood up: "Yes, I can't sleep, some things, some people always keep me awake." Awake until the mind is clear all night, all night long...... Night...... I know all the changes throughout the camp. I heard the sound of the horse, but I didn't go out of the tent. ”
"Really, then I think it was just the horse that had escaped from here! Hearing this, Ellie secretly wiped the cold sweat from her head.
"No, no, no! He didn't run away. I went and counted them this morning, and there was not a single horse missing. All the horses were here, and even I recognized the one that chirped last night. Truth be told, it's really capable of tossing. ”
"yes! It's time to clean up with him. Ellie nodded.
"Okay, let's not talk about these nonsense things. Thanks to that horse, I stayed up all night, so I knew how to defeat the enemy. It looks like we don't have to wait for tomorrow, we can succeed today. Saying that, Zhao Yulong walked out of the tent.
"Meng Liang, Huyun, you know what you should do, so now I think we have to get up. Because I was able to drive the remnants of the Bairo Empire out of here today, and thinking that I would soon have to go back, I suddenly felt that I would be so excited that I couldn't sleep tonight. ”
"Then it seems that Brother Long, it is better for you not to sleep, but we don't know the location of their army, and the cavalry regiment has no commander, and Brother Rui can't come back now. ”
"It's okay, leave him alone. Isn't he just the commander of a cavalry regiment? Ellie, you don't want you to do anything, but you just need to follow my orders and command the cavalry regiment. ”
"Okay master, it's just that I can't even hold a weapon, will it drag you down?"
"No, you don't have to charge, you just need to command. So now let's go!" As he spoke, Zhao Yulong had already turned over and got on his horse, ready to go.
"Let's go, Brother Long, where are we going? We don't seem to have any news about Bailuo Camp yet, it's not easy for us to find such a big place!"
"It's not easy, but I think the horse should remember it. Because he had seen the garrison of the Bairo Empire last night, it was really a hidden place. If they don't attack you, you may never find their team for the rest of your life. As he spoke, Zhao Yulong pointed to the marks on the saddle.
It was indeed slashed by the heavy sword, and the only one who could use the heavy sword here was naturally the Bairo Empire. Although he didn't know what Zhao Yulong meant by saying so many words, Hu Yun was not stupid, and naturally knew that Zhao Yulong had found the enemy's residence.
As for when they were found, and by what they found, there is no way to know these lakes.
But since Zhao Yulong has found the location of the enemy army, now is naturally the best time to send troops. Therefore, Meng Liang and Hu Yun didn't say anything, and now they turned over and got on the horse.
It's just that Ellie is a little hesitant now, because there is not a single horse missing. Yesterday, however, she saw the soldier riding away on a horse. And now the soldier did not return, but the horse did, which made her a little stunned.
"What's wrong with you? Ellie, won't you get on your horse? Hurry up and get on your horse! I don't want to carry you up, we don't have much time, and now it's early in the morning, the enemy is not in good spirits, and we have a chance to raid." ”
"Okay!" Although there was something in her heart, but now that Zhao Yulong said this, she also reacted and knew what she was going to do now. So now it's on the horse in the stirrups.
This series of movements is very skillful, although wearing a skirt, but there is no moment to go. Apparently this must have been practiced for a long time, and her riding posture indicates that she was often on horseback.
Seeing this scene, Zhao Yulong smiled slightly, and ran towards the outside of the camp with his horsewhip: "Keep up, we are going to win a battle today, cheer me up." ”
As he spoke, he drove his horse into the distance, and the soldiers and cavalry behind him also maintained a certain speed and followed behind Zhao Yulong.
There is a small valley in the forest, and like other valleys, it is only a reflection of the terrain, and there is nothing unusual about it. Therefore, most people rarely pay attention to these places, but this one is a little different.
For in the midst of this valley was stationed a great army, yes, of thirty thousand. Because of the design of the camp tent, and the abundance of vegetation in the valley. Now, if you don't look closely, you really can't see that there is such an army hidden in this place less than ten miles away.
This valley, though good, is limited to hiding. If discovered, the valley will lose its strengths, and even its original advantages will become disadvantages.
"There is a gap in the east and a big exit in the west, and that's where our army enters. Ellie, you take the cavalry regiment to hold the gap in the east, and when our army enters, they will definitely come out of there, and you tell the cavalry to block them. Zhao Yulong took a general look at the terrain and began to assign tasks.
After speaking, Zhao Yulong put his mouth to Ellie's ear again and said, "In addition, the enemy may be very strong, so I don't ask you and these cavalrymen to block much." Just do your best, if you can't do it, evacuate, life is the most important thing, understand?"
"Understood!" Ellie looked at Zhao Yulong and nodded with a blush, at this time her ears didn't know if it was because of the heat of Zhao Yulong's words or what, she was already a little red.
But Zhao Yulong didn't see this, and just drove his horse towards the west for some distance: "Since everyone now knows the distribution of this battle, then I don't want to say the second time, act now." ”
"But Brother Long, what should we do, you haven't said yet. ”
"What should you do, you two have been with me for so many years, do you think I need to say it? ”
"Okay then! It's just Brother Long, you really don't have to worry about letting Ellie and a girl guard that exit. You must know that it is an army of tens of thousands! How many people are there in the entire cavalry regiment? If it is Brother Rui, I believe it when he stays there, but she, I am very worried!" At this time, the military horse had already walked a distance, and Hu Yun saw that he was already far away from Ellie at this time, so he asked Zhao Yulong.
"Don't worry, she's much stronger than you think, and she's not going to die so easily, because she hasn't seen me die yet. So rest assured, not only her, but even our entire cavalry regiment will not be injured, let alone killed. ”
"Brother Long, what do you mean?"
"You know? Sometimes, when you fight a war, you can't just look at the victory, but also the future victory. The longer this war drags on, the more soldiers we will be able to use this time to recruit and hone more soldiers. As for what to hone them for, I don't think I need to say!" As he spoke, Zhao Yulong had already come to the entrance and exit of this valley.
"Almost, then now follow me!" As soon as the words fell, almost all the soldiers rushed down the slope in front of them as if they were electrocuted. When he ran, he didn't forget to bring a loud roar, which was requested by Zhao Yulong, saying that it could boost everyone's morale.
However, Zhao Yulong himself knew very well that yelling was not just a little useful for boosting morale now. But it seems that the morale of these soldiers is really high.
At this time, there was silence in the military camp of the Bairo Empire, and they were hit hard by yesterday's defeat. Coupled with the haste of the withdrawal, they were all tired.
In addition, in this cold place in the West, almost everyone has a habit of waking up late. So when Zhao Yulong's army approached, they hadn't even woken up yet.
But now they are awake, not because they want to wake up. It's just that the overwhelming roar really made them a little sleepless, and at first they thought that someone was too idle to do this all day.
By the time they reacted, Zhao Yulong's army had already rushed into their barracks. In desperation, these Bairo soldiers had to wear pants while rushing out of the camp to meet the battle.
But it was useless, for how could a soldier who had not even had time to put on his armor be able to fight? Therefore, the first Bairo soldiers who ran out of the camp did not live long, but this was only the first batch.
Maybe the soldiers behind them learned wisely, or maybe their commander had taught them how to deal with the enemy in this way. In short, after the stubborn resistance of the first soldiers, almost all the soldiers in the entire camp were already wearing their armor.
"Array! Quick! Square Table Battle Formation!" is still that young man, just like Zhao Yulong saw yesterday, the whole team listens to him, obviously this is also a rare talent.
It is naturally a good thing that such talents can enter their own team. And if it is an enemy, it is naturally a little tricky. And now this young man is obviously the latter, after all, there are not many people who can calmly command when the enemy is near.
"It's that damn formation again!Brother Long, do you want me to go up and kill him secretly." "Meng Liang's horse is not a good horse, he originally wanted to play well, but by the time he felt that he was here, these soldiers had already formed a formation.
"No need, if he dies, this team will have no commander, and these soldiers have lost their commander, do you think they still have the ability to compete with us?"
"Naturally, you can't. Hu Yun nodded, as if he had realized.
"Just understand, he has to live. Only if he lives will our war drag on longer, and only if he lives will he be able to command a decent enemy that happens to be the best way for us to hone our recruits. After all, there is nothing in this world that can hone a strong soldier more than the battlefield, especially when the enemy army is strong. ”
"I understand, it's just that they don't want to retreat in this formation now, what do we do, withdraw the troops, or?"
"If you can't withdraw, the army will be chaotic. They don't want to run away because they feel that their formation is extremely strong, but if they find that what they are relying on is like a plaything in front of the enemy, what do you think they will do?" said Zhao Yulong and looked at Hu Yun.
"I don't know what they do, I just know that if I were in a situation like this, I would definitely run. After all, you can't beat it, so why not leave first?"
"Yes, run away, then they will run away. And I believe that with this lesson, their commander-in-chief will take it very seriously, and I think we will have a strong opponent. And now all we have to do is let them escape. ”
Saying that, Zhao Yulong used his soul power to control the soul sword, and since that realm ascension, Zhao Yulong found that the number of swords he could control was increasing significantly. Basically, I can control it more every three days, but it's a pity that after so long, there is still no sign of a breakthrough in the realm.
But come to think of it, after all, this Soul Condensing Realm is already the realm of the strong. If the breakthrough is still the same as playing, then how much point is there, so now this speed is acceptable.
I saw that only a few quarters of an hour had passed, and the soldiers who formed the battle formation had not yet been able to come into contact with the infantry on Zhao Yulong's side. At this time, Zhao Yulong already had dozens of soul swords hanging by his side.
At this time, the blades of these swords just pointed towards those battle formations, only to see Zhao Yulong clench his outstretched palms into fists, and those soul swords flew out.
These swords were held in their hands, and they successfully passed through all the soldiers and reached the front of those battle formations. Almost every battle formation had only one sword in front of it, and these swords were facing one of the square table shields.
But instead of attacking, they hung here, the blades of their swords only a few feet away from the shield, but they stopped there. Such a scene made these Bairo soldiers feel that their eyes were not spent, and they were seeing the wrong thing.
For though the sword was seen, no one took it, and he stopped there without moving. Everything seemed to freeze, except that the soldiers could hear their own breathing and those around them.
But they didn't dare to act rashly, because the sword was too strange. Although they are all battle-hardened warriors, there will inevitably be some fear in their hearts when faced with the unknown.
But such fears are not real fears, because they just stay at the level of the unknown. When the unknown becomes known, or the unknown becomes habitual, such fear naturally disappears.
And so, it didn't take long for the soldiers to realize that it was just a standing sword, and that there was nothing special except for a strange one.
So they relaxed, and in the face of the approaching infantry, they once again showed their spirits. But just when all their attention was on the oncoming enemy, the swords moved.
Yes, just for a moment, the sword stabbed at the shield. Although the soldier reacted, the sword was still too fast.
Almost at the same time, the soldier who was being targeted by the soul sword on these battlefields was pierced by the soul sword. If it weren't for the fact that they concentrated all their fighting energy and magic on that shield in time and blocked part of the power of this soul sword, otherwise this sword might not have stopped.
Although only one soldier died in each squad, it was a huge blow to the entire team. After all, not many people in the history of Bairo have been able to penetrate a shield that combines fighting energy and magic, but now their enemies have the ability to do so.
This means that they are no match for the enemy. The silver-haired young man naturally knew this, so he was also smart: "Withdraw the army, get on the horse quickly!"
The order was timely, as the infantry were only a few dozen paces away from them. But the troops, accustomed to running around, were always more skilled when they withdrew, so even at such a close distance, the infantry did not catch up with them.
Seeing these enemy troops moving farther and farther away, these infantry were a little disappointed.
"Soldiers, don't be discouraged by not being able to catch up with the enemy, don't worry! they can't run, and at the eastern exit, we have garrisons, so we just need to go now. Everyone was tired just now, so I don't think it's better to just walk over like this. With that, Zhao Yulong actually got off the horse and led him slowly towards the east.
Seeing this, Hu Yun and Meng Liang also dismounted together. When these soldiers saw the commander like this, they naturally slowed down their walking.
