0067 Surprise Attack on Stone Cave

Wen Yi is full of theoretical knowledge, and occasionally he can think of good ideas in a flash of inspiration, and his actual military ability is a little stronger than ordinary people who have not read military books.

Xie Daoyun was very clear about this, so how could he leave with the soldiers so relieved.

She placed her main force in a valley dozens of miles away, and she hid with a platoon of guards to observe the situation.

If Wen Yi makes a major mistake in defending the city, she will change her plan and lead people to raid the Slang rear army.

She was confident that she would defeat the slang in front of her head-on, but doing so would cause a lot of casualties on her side, and she was unwilling to do so unless she had to.

At first, the defense on the city wall could only be said to be decent, which can be seen from the first few rounds of bows and arrows were concentrated on one point.

This is not much of a problem, but it will cause a lot of waste of arrows, which experienced generals will avoid.

But soon there was a change in the head of the city, and the archers were grouped, always able to find the enemy's weak points and attack, inflicting maximum damage on the enemy with the least attrition.

When the enemy changes formation, the direction of the archers' fire will also change.

She couldn't help but think of four words in her mind: like an arm and a finger.

This is a master of using soldiers, and her actual combat ability is even above her.

She was very curious, why did such a master of soldiers suddenly appear in the city? Why haven't I heard of it before, where did Wenyi find it?

But in any case, since there is someone who knows how to preside over the overall situation, she doesn't have to worry about Wen Yi's safety, and she can concentrate on implementing her plan.

Their first target was the Stone Cave.

After spending a day touching the Shiyan Cave camp less than five miles, they found a woodland and lurked in.

Xie Daoyun called all the officers at and above the level of company commander together and held a pre-war meeting.

The participants included Zhao Zhengzhi, Li Zhong, Wei Ran, Wang An, Liu Meng and others, all of whom were trained and discovered people with relatively military talents.

When the people arrived at Qi Xie Daoyun, he went straight to the topic:

"Stone caves are easy to defend and difficult to attack, but once this kind of terrain is opened, they will become turtles in urns."

"According to the information sent back by Yue Shan, most slang people have night blindness, so we chose the time of the attack at night."

"Today is the twenty-first, and the moon will rise in the second half of the night, so we will choose to attack at two o'clock, so everyone will eat early and rest early tonight."

"Yes." The people answered.

Xie Daoyun continued: "Zhao Zhengzhi, your reconnaissance company will work hard, touch all the slang sentinels, and clear the way forward for the army. ”

Zhao Zhengzhi said: "We are not familiar with the terrain here, and we don't know where the slang people will set up secret sentinels, and it is too difficult to touch them all quietly." ”

Xie Daoyun also knew the difficulties, so he didn't force it, but just said:

"If we can touch a few, we will be able to move a safe distance and die fewer brothers."

Zhao Zhengzhi said: "I have a way to bypass the slang sentinels and directly touch their gate. ”

Xie Daoyun asked in surprise, "What's the way?" ”

Zhao Zhengzhi said: "Next to the gate of the slang people is a cliff, and we can climb up from the bottom of the cliff. ”

Xie Daoyun said: "That cliff is very steep, seven or eight zhang high, how can you go up?" ”

Zhao Zhengzhi said: "When we first arrived in Langhu, Brother Xiao Yi let us train our climbing skills, and also built a lot of special tools for climbing, and we often climb cliffs of this height. ”

Xie Daoyun believed it as soon as he heard that it was cultivated by Wen Yi in advance, and other people would not doubt it, so the matter was settled.

Until nine o'clock in the evening, Zhao Zhengzhi set off with the reconnaissance company and touched the bottom of the cliff all the way.

Then two thin men climbed up the cliff at nearly ninety degrees.

Their movements are very skillful, although the speed of crawling is not fast, but every step is very steady, sometimes there is no suitable foothold, and they will borrow each other's strength.

Tools are also important, such as the palm-sized pointy-beak pickaxe, which can be tucked into small crevices in the stone to give them a point of strength, and claw hooks.

There was no danger, the two climbed to the top of the cliff smoothly, threw the rope from it, and the others climbed up one by one along the rope.

The slang people never imagined that the enemy would climb up from what they regarded as a moat, without the slightest defense.

They killed the night watchman and quietly took over the gate, and then raised the gate.

Xie Daoyun, who had already prepared outside the cottage, immediately led his troops to kill him.

Halfway through the march, a dull horn sounded from the trees on the side, and Xie Daoyun knew that he had been discovered by the secret sentinel.

At the moment, he didn't care about hiding his tracks, and shouted: "Full speed ahead." ”

The army suddenly picked up speed and rushed towards the gate.

The person in charge of the left-behind camp was sprinting with Dong Dana's seventh concubine in his arms, and when he heard the sound of the horn, he instantly withered.

He knew the meaning of this voice, and he didn't care about the complaining expression of the woman under him, so he jumped up, pulled a piece of clothing, put it on casually, and ran out.

As soon as he arrived outside the door, he met a henchman who came to find him, and hurriedly asked, "What happened?" ”

The cronie said, "This is a warning from the secret sentry outside, there is an enemy." ”

The name shouted: "Hurry up and inform Mulu and let him lead the troops to support the Zhaimen, as long as he guards the Zhaimen, it is useless to let him come." ”

The cronie said: "On the way here, I saw that Mulu had already led people to the Zhaimen. ”

The heart of the name relaxed slightly, and he was very satisfied with Mulu's reaction, but the next moment he sensed that something was wrong.

For he heard shouts and killings from the gate.

"What's going on? How did the enemy get to the gate so quickly? ”

The cronies were also taken aback and said, "I don't know either." ”

Fame said: "What are you still doing in a daze, hurry up and take a look." ”

"Yes." The cronie hurriedly ran to the gate of the village.

"It's stupid." He was very dissatisfied with the reaction of this cronie, and he was still thinking that he would be replaced when the matter was over.

At this time, he thought that the enemy had killed the walled gate, and he did not realize the seriousness of the matter.

I originally wanted to go back to the house, but after thinking about it, as the person in charge of staying behind, it would be difficult to explain if I didn't show up, so I pulled out my legs and walked to the gate of the village.

As soon as he was halfway there, he found out that something was wrong, why did the gate seem to be open?

He thought he had seen it wrong, so he quickly rubbed his eyes, and when he looked at it again, his old face instantly became bloodless.

At the gate of the camp, when he heard the sound of the horn, Zhao Zhengzhi knew that the large army had been discovered, and immediately organized everyone to defend.

After a while, a group of slang people rushed over and made a double kill.

These slang people also know the importance of the walled gate, and they don't rush up like their lives.

Zhao Zhengzhi was very clear about his mission, and did not pursue killing the enemy, but quickly ordered everyone to shrink the formation and defend with their backs to the gate of the camp.

Even so, more than two dozen people were hacked to death and slashed in the blink of an eye.

This is the first time that the reconnaissance company has suffered so many casualties since its establishment, and Zhao Zhengzhi's eyes are red.

He wanted to break the enemy in front of him into pieces, but he knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, and guarding the city gate was the most important thing.
