Chapter 201: Empty Camp Strategy
The sound of the horn shook the sky, and the war clouds gathered.
The sharp formation, like a sharp sword, rushed down the steep mountain road.
The athletes of the shrine, everyone is brave and mighty.
Condescending, like splitting bamboo.
Behind them was a raging fire.
The camp in the rear has been set on fire by Su Can's order, and once defeated, they will have no way back.
The mountain pass was blocked by layers of deer villages and moats, but it could not stop the footsteps of the Shindo samurai.
When everyone descended the mountain, they were carrying a full load of dirt sacs, facing the trench, throwing the soil bags into it, and suddenly felt relaxed, and they could throw themselves into the bloody battle with all their might.
The sappers also acted in an orderly manner, clearing the ground of roadblocks such as thistles, tripping horses, and rejecting horses, so as to make room for the comrades behind them to attack.
On the embankment, Shenxiao's archers rained arrows, as if they didn't want money, and they rained down on the priests of the shrine.
Every moment someone bleed or even died, but no one flinched.
The samurai of the shrine were not only men, but also a few women. With a blazing fire of hatred burning in their eyes, they stepped on the corpses of their comrades and charged at the enemy's front like a raging wave crashing on the shore.
The news that the Takezu Taisha had been burned down by vicious enemies made them weep and be filled with anger.
The warriors who were full of vigor jumped up in the face of the tall causeway, but they did not have the slightest fatigue, and immediately launched a white-edged confrontation with the Shenxiao soldiers above.
The layers of fences were destroyed by the roaring gangmang, and they collapsed with a bang, and one after another poignant blood flowers bloomed on the chests of the soldiers of the two armies.
Speaking of which, some people may not believe that in the face of a dense rain of arrows, if you charge quickly with the courage not to be afraid of death, you can effectively reduce casualties.
No matter how dense the rain of arrows is, it can't really be as dense as raindrops. No matter how good a bow is, it can be blocked by armor.
In the indomitable and rapid charge, the enemy archers often miscalculated, and the high-speed moving target was often able to avoid a sharp long-range attack.
Although the lethality of the bow and arrow is that the closer the enemy, the more powerful it is. But when the enemy foot soldiers are completely killed in front of the archers or even in the ranks, the archers will lose their combat effectiveness.
Now, the warriors of the temple swept away the weak infantry line on the enemy's fortifications like a whirlwind of clouds, like sharp knives plunged into the Shenxiao Bow team.
The tactics of flowering in the center made the blood of the Shenxiao soldiers flow in every direction.
When the brave meet on the narrow road, they have surrounded the mountain for many days, and they have long been slack, but they never thought that the soldiers of the temple who were considered to be waterless for many days could still be so brave, like divine soldiers descending from the sky!
Thundered!
The boulder was thrown down from a tower, and where it landed, the flesh and blood of the temple soldiers were splattered.
Along with the fall of the boulders, there are also crossbow arrows as thick as children's arms, which are amazingly powerful.
"Fire!" Zuo Chengzheng's eyes were cold, and he ordered resolutely.
The trigger clicked, and a dense tongue of fire focused on the tower, and flames rose up from the bottom, only to collapse in a few breaths as the towering tower turned into a massive torch.
There was a terrible scream and the smell of barbecue.
Watchtowers, stone cannons, bed crossbows, traps, and all kinds of obstacles and facilities could not stop the unstoppable attack of the temple warriors.
I have been depressed for many days, and now I am venting my resentment, it is the morale that is like a rainbow and unstoppable!
The fortifications were breached one after another, and the Shenxiao soldiers retreated one after another, letting out heart-rending cries.
The probe horse rode over and came to Su Can's horse in the array.
"In front of us is the enemy's battalion, and the demolition of these fortifications has also consumed a lot of physical strength and sharpness of our army, and I am afraid it will not be easy to chisel through it......"
Just then, a second spy also rushed back.
"Report! There seems to be a commotion in the rear of the enemy's camp! ”
Su Can showed a happy expression, raised his hands, and said loudly: "Brothers, cheer! Our elite cavalry in ambush has endured for many days, just to join forces with everyone today and defeat the enemy army. ”
"The two armies will fire in unison, hit their heads and tails, and the enemy will have no way to escape, and the corpses will be strewn all over the field under the knife of our army, and the blood will flow like a river!"
"After this battle, we will pile up the enemy's heads into a Jingguan, sacrifice to the Martial Ancestors, and burn the shame of the Taisha with snow and fire!"
The soldiers finally understood why they had to endure hunger and thirst in the mountains for so many days.
Despite the humiliation and indignation, it was all worth it for the sake of victory in the war.
Endure until now, all the anger must be repaid with the blood and soul of the enemy!
The cries of killing the enemy were thunderous, echoing and reverberating among the mountains and rivers, and the soldiers shook their spirits, drove away the fatigue and pain, and continued to pounce on the towering gate of the enemy camp.
At this time, the back door of the defenseless Shenxiao military camp had been broken through by a group of elite cavalry, and the brave cavalry was unstoppable as they were driving through the camp like a flood.
The dense hooves of the horses crushed the thistles and the horses, turning them into sawdust and raising them with the mortar, filling the sky with dust and smoke.
Dancing in the dust and smoke are the blood and bones of the Shenxiao soldiers.
"Report ...... The enemy has broken through!"
"The second camp gate is breached!"
"The third camp gate is breached!"
As the Shenxiao soldiers retreated like a tide and fell into chaos, one by one the good news reached Su Can, making him happy.
In the distance, the soldiers of the main array of the Divine Hall could already see the team of knights who were as strong as a dragon, although there were only a few hundred people, but they carried the oppressive force of Shen Xiong like steel.
The two troops had already penetrated the Shenxiao military camp and successfully joined the enemy camp.
Although there are several mountain passes, so there is more than one Shenxiao military camp, but if one camp is breached, it will inevitably cause other camps to fall into panic.
"The battle has reached this point, and all that remains is the pursuit of the dead. Su Can concluded: "The key now is to find the location of the enemy's main general and cut off the heads of Gu Taineng and Yang Bofu......"
He thought to himself that when morale was available, this battle would be easy.
Before the words fell, Su Can suddenly saw a blazing light surging on both sides of his field of vision, spreading in an instant.
"This ...... What's going on?"
Su Can changed color.
"Oh no! The enemy set fire!" Lin Tonggu exclaimed: "Damn, we have been tricked, this is an empty camp plan!"
Su Can's face also turned pale: "In this way, what we defeated were all weak soldiers used to lure the enemy, no wonder it was so easy...... It's so vicious that it even burned ...... your own soldiers."
"The enemy used weak soldiers to drain our strength and lure us into this battalion, and now we are in a desperate situation!" Lin Tonggu continued.
The soldiers of the shrine, who were originally high morale, immediately became in a commotion.
They fought valiantly, but they only fell into the trap of the enemy!
Su Can barely maintained his calm: "Don't panic, everyone! This camp is very large, and there are quite empty roads in it, not every position can be burned, let's organize the team, we can choose the way to kill it, and then take the enemy by surprise!"
"Stupid. ”
A voice as calm as a mountain came from afar, from the direction of the rear camp.
Gu Taineng rode a war horse like a baby elephant, led the Shenxiao army, surging from behind, and directly scattered the cavalry team of only a few hundred people, scurrying around the camp, and the sound of horse neighing came and went.
"Yes, on the plains, the camp is open, and setting fire can only have the effect of blocking the road. But if you can think of a two-way attack, how can we not think of it?"
Su Can gritted his teeth: "Damn...... But your forces are scattered across a few mountain passes......"
Yang Bo Fu beside Gu Taineng stroked Wuliu's long hair and smiled slightly: "You can only break through from this direction, because there is a big mountain range not far away." To flank inside and out, you need an ambush area that is sufficiently concealed. ”
Su Can began to tremble all over, his scalp was numb, and cold sweat trickled down his neck.
In this way, the army of Shenxiao had already assembled in this mountain pass, lay in ambush outside the camp, and just waited for them to enter the camp, then lit a fire, and then surrounded them in the camp.
At this time, the deviant division that Wu Feng had ambushed would also be lured into the camp, and none of them could escape.
Only by fighting a war of annihilation on flat ground can we have the highest efficiency.
Wu Feng's strategy turned out to have such a huge flaw!
The temple is over!
Su Can shouted frantically in his heart, he was completely at a loss for what to do.
Gu Taineng laughed loudly, urged the war horse, and pounced on a knight who was riding his horse and running.
The knight rode a yellow horse, carried a red sword, and wore a blood-colored cloak, and had a heroic countenance.
He was the leader of the cavalry team of the Shentang Division, but in the face of such a situation, he could only flee in a panic.
"Wu Feng'er, die!"
Gu Tai Neng's palm burst out with a starry light and hit the knight's chest with a bang.
The knight screamed unwillingly, bleeding from his chest, and was knocked flying from his horse, his body torn apart.
His head slammed to the ground, and that clear face was indeed the master of the Divine Hall, Wu Feng!
Seeing that Wu Feng was killed, the soldiers of the Divine Hall fell into a panic and became more and more frightened and lost their will to fight. And the Shenxiao side was thunderous.
Old friend Xuezhai, I, Gu Taineng, have taken revenge on you today!
Gu Taineng secretly shouted, but there was a panic in his heart.
Why--I always feel that killing Wu Feng shouldn't be so easy.
This damn boy, even the Zen master Xuezhai who has no last resort, is also planted in his hands.
And Gu Taineng himself and Yang Bofu combined, Zhiluo will definitely not be able to compete with Xue Zhai.
It's just that the war has already reached this point, what else can not happen?
