Chapter 249: Taking advantage of the void
"What happened an hour ago, why didn't you come back to report it now?" Shen Mingling felt that his face was very heavy, and there was a chill in his eyes that made his heart palpitate, and his tone was low.
update
Everyone present looked at Shen Mingling with a hideous face, and they couldn't help but feel afraid and uneasy. But the disappearance of the golden python undoubtedly shocked them even more.
"That'...... That's because the lowly people thought that the golden python had successfully invaded the enemy camp and was in the middle of the action, so it was inconvenient for us to contact us, so we waited for half an hour before we saw them, and then we knew that something was wrong. The herald said with a pale face.
"Where did you finally get the news from them?" Shen Mingling said in a cold voice that suppressed the anger in his heart.
"We finally separated when we were ten miles from the enemy camp. They said...... Said that we were waste, and we couldn't follow them and drag them back, so I ......" replied with a somewhat embarrassed herald face.
"Hún account stuff, useless waste. Come on, pull out this becestic thing for me and cut it off" Shen Mingling suddenly shouted angrily, and two soldiers immediately came in outside, and the herald with a white face was set out.
"General, do you think about this matter......" The officers looked at Shen Mingling, whose face was gloomy, and asked cautiously.
After hearing the news from the heralds, they all had an ominous premonition in their hearts, it was likely that the golden python, which had been invincible in the past, was going to be planted in the hands of the enemy this time. Thinking that everyone was still celebrating tonight and tomorrow's victory in advance, everyone couldn't help but feel blushing and shameless to face General Shen Mingling.
But what they couldn't figure out was why the Golden Python troops, who had successfully attacked several times before, were planted in the hands of Emperor Xia Dynasty's ** team this time? Is it because they have been prepared?
It shouldn't be, Shen Mingling and the others believe that except for the Xia Dynasty Empire when the first surprise attack was unprepared, every subsequent Xia Dynasty Empire must have been prepared, but those people from the Golden Python Force still entered and exited a few times as if they were in a no-man's land, not only the plan was successful, but no one fell into the hands of the enemy.
Being able to enter a no-man's land in the barracks of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, just thinking about it, you know that the ability of the Golden Python troops is not ordinarily strong, and the Xia Dynasty Empire is helpless against the Golden Python troops. Therefore, Shen Mingling and others will have a blind trust in the golden python, as long as they are there, the victory of this war will be none other than the Xiyuan Empire.
But now, the men of the Golden Python Force have fallen into the hands of the enemy. Until this moment, Shen Mingling and the others still couldn't believe it in their hearts.
"What's going on?" Shen Mingling squinted at the officer who spoke, and his face gradually regained his calmness and said lightly, "Nothing happened tonight, everyone continued to drink." The implication was that a gag order was issued to everyone present.
Shen Mingling said it well, where are you still in the mood to drink now, everyone is holding a wine glass in their hands, but they haven't touched their mouths for a long time, and the expression on their faces looks quite solemn. Even Shen Mingling, who looked calm with a calm face, everyone knew that he was just pretending, maybe he was already angry in his heart and wanted to slaughter all the ** team of the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty.
The Golden Python Force is a jīng Ying unit created by Lord Duke Shen Cheng Ao Jīng, it is his treasure, and now it has lost a hundred people at once, which is called how Shen Mingling should be proud of Shen Cheng Jiāo. )
It's over, it's really over this time. Shen Mingling's heart was extremely depressed, as if the end of the world was coming.
This matter is related to the morale of the army, and this news must not be spread, otherwise once the army is panicked, it will no longer be able to continue to confront the Xia Dynasty Empire.
This night, the soldiers in the ** camp of the Xia Dynasty Emperor slept very sweetly, because their undefeated god of war Zhang Huaming returned to the barracks, and they finally saw their idols and jīng god beliefs, and after being excited, they fell asleep sweetly.
Qin Xiaotian and a group of officers under him were obviously in a good mood, and after discussing in detail with them the plan proposed by Zhang Huaming in the big tent, it was finally formalized. Of course, in addition, Zhang Huaming easily took down all the Golden Python troops that gave them a big headache, solved a big problem for them, and finally could sleep peacefully.
Compared with the mood of the soldiers of the Xia Dynasty Empire, the generals in the ** camp of Emperor Xiyuan could not sleep all night. The general Shen Mingling stayed in the camp tent all the time, and he was stunned for an hour, without pajamas at all, and finally because the wine jīng worked, he gradually fell asleep on the table.
Following
The sun is rising, the temperature is getting hotter, and in the dry early summer in the west, the breeze blows by, setting off a fine stream of loess spreading.
Zhang Huaming looked at the barracks fenced with wooden planks, his mood was a little complicated, for the barracks, especially the iron-blooded atmosphere in the barracks, he suddenly realized that he was actually just a dung boy who was not more than thirty years old. The barracks are surrounded by a wooden wall, two rows of tree trunks, one row long and one row short, bury half of the trunk in the soil after the bottom of the trunk is scorched, the long trunks are arranged in a tight row outside, and the short trunks are lined up in a row, and then a wooden plank is erected between the two rows of tree trunks, which is divided into two layers, so that the part of the long trunk becomes a parapet wall, the upper layer of the wooden plank can be used by soldiers to patrol and sentry, and the lower layer can store defensive weapons and let soldiers rest. Under normal circumstances, a squad of fifty soldiers, plus one captain and one deputy of the team, is the same when camping, everyone's tents are facing each other, and drainage ditches are dug around the tents and between the camps. It is strictly forbidden for soldiers to run between the camps, and tents are not allowed to run within the camp.
The military camp of the Xia Dynasty Empire was garrisoned by 300,000 people, which were divided into five regions, each of which was further divided into a number of districts, which were managed by governors at all levels. Zhang Huaming was standing outside the barracks, when he heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a gust of loess rising a few hundred meters away, and a cavalry team of about 100 people was galloping in the direction of the barracks.
"How's it going? Is there anything unusual?" asked Zhang Huaming when the team came closer.
"Nothing out of the ordinary, as if nothing had happened. Qin Xiaotian's brows furrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice.
"Hehe, this has been expected for a long time. The golden python is Shen Chengao's signboard, and it is one of the most important efforts he has devoted to the military in the past three years. If it fails, it will never be possible for the news to get out. Zhang Huaming said with a smile.
When he got up this morning, Qin Xiaotian made a bet with him to see if the Xiyuan Empire had lost a hundred members of the Golden Python Force, and whether they would take their own footing. Qin Xiaotian knew the strength of the Golden Python Force, and even more so knew its significance to the Xiyuan Empire, so he thought that the atmosphere in the Xiyuan Emperor's ** camp would definitely be abnormal. But Zhang Huaming told him in a very positive tone that he wouldn't.
So Qin Xiaotian personally took people to the vicinity of the Xiyuan Empire to check it out, and found that everything was normal in the military camp of the Xiyuan Empire, as if nothing had happened, which made Qin Xiaotian very puzzled in his heart.
"What's more, if I guessed correctly, although there is nothing abnormal in the military camp of the Xiyuan Empire, it is difficult to say that those officers, especially the great generals who led the troops to fight, must be struggling in their hearts to figure out how to report this matter to Shen Chengao. Zhang Huaming paused and added, "But I think he should hide this matter for the time being." ”
With Shen Chengao's monstrous power in the Xiyun Empire, after such a big thing happened, once Shen Chengao learned that the Golden Python had lost a hundred people, he might be furious to what extent, and even if the general did not die, he would probably have to shed his skin. At least, the position of general cannot be kept.
"Do you mean to say that the army's heart is not luàn, but the general's heart has been lost?" Qin Xiaotian understood at one point.
"Yes, the enemy leader must be in a state of panic and overwhelmed now, and this is a great opportunity for us to take advantage of the situation. Zhang Huaming nodded.
"Okay, this opportunity is rare, and you can't miss it easily, so I'll listen to you and lead a large army to attack them immediately. After thinking about it for a while, Qin Xiaotian understood what Zhang Huaming meant, and immediately said in a deep voice.
"Hmm. By the way, bring the 100 Golden Python people with you. Zhang Huaming's eyes flashed with a glint and said lightly.
"It's a must. Qin Xiaotian and Zhang Huaming glanced at each other, and laughed loudly at the same time.
Knock-knock-knock In the distance, there was a faint sound of war drums, accompanied by the sound of rumbling hooves, as if thousands of troops and horses were galloping.
The sound of a desolate horn sounded over the Western Xia Plain.
The soldiers in the ** battalion of Emperor Xiyun suddenly found that on the plain in the distance, dust and smoke were billowing up, just like a long dragon rolling up, and like a bō turbulent làngcháo coming from the sky.
"Woo woo woo enemy attack, enemy attack"
The soldier in charge of the watchtower of the Xiyuan Empire was taken aback, and hurriedly blew the horn and shouted loudly.
In an instant, there was a sāoluàn in the military camp of the Xiyun Empire, and the soldiers gathered under the organization of their respective commanders, lined up and waited.
The sudden appearance of the army of the Xia Dynasty Empire without warning made the soldiers of the Xiyuan Empire a little dazed, not knowing when these guys suddenly arrived at their home.
What made them especially depressed was that in the past, the two armies faced each other face to face, but today, it seems that the army of the Xia Dynasty Empire did not follow the rules of regular combat at all, and without even making a report, they directly led the army to the camp of their own army.
"General, general, no, the thieves of the Xia Dynasty Empire are here. In the tent of the general of the Xiyun Empire, Shen Mingling happened to be awakened by the earth-shaking sound outside, and a person who looked like an officer hurriedly rushed into the camp tent and said loudly.
"What did you say?" Shen Mingling was still a little confused, and was stunned when he heard the words.
"Killing, they're killing. The officer pointed in the direction of the tent and said, "Go and command the soldiers, or it will be too late." ”
"What" Shen Mingling finally came back to his senses from the mí paste, and when he heard that the people of the Xia Dynasty Empire had actually killed outside his military camp, he was suddenly taken aback, and he screamed in a lost voice, and secretly cursed the damn thing, he didn't care about anything else, and immediately ran out of the camp tent in a rage.
Outside the camp tent, Shen Mingling looked at it with great eyes, and sure enough, he saw that a Qing Yi sè cavalry team composed of 10,000 people was coming from the dust on the land of the Xixia Plain, like a dragon going to sea, majestic and unstoppable. After the cavalry, there was a mountain of infantry.
"Archers prepare. Shen Mingling didn't care to guess how this team suddenly came here, walked quickly to the high platform, and shouted an order to the archers and soldiers who had already assembled in the barracks.
"Knock Knock"
Another earth-shattering sound of horses' hooves sounded on both sides of the Xiyun Emperor's ** camp at the same time, which stunned the Xiyun Empire that was in a hurry to fight.
"Woo woo, enemy attack again, enemy attack again. ”
Last night's night was too relaxed, and the soldiers of the Xiyuan Empire seemed to be a little nervous, and the sudden appearance of the cavalry team in front of them made most of them panic, and now two teams of 10,000 people suddenly popped out on both sides, making them even more panicked.
"Damn, an attack early in the morning. "Shen Mingling was sad all night because of the matter of the Golden Python Army, and he drank a lot of wine, and his head is still a little dizzy. However, he deserved to be the general of the first army, and after the initial panic, he immediately calmed down and methodically commanded the soldiers to prepare for defense according to their respective arms.
Cavalry is an organized and fast force, they can quickly strike at the opponent, but also can quickly retreat when the battle situation is unfavorable, out of the battlefield, mobile xìng Xìng is extremely strong, especially in the relatively flat terrain of the plains, with extremely powerful impact and lethality.
"Oooooooo
The earth-shattering sound of galloping horses suddenly heard the shouts of soldiers, mixed with the sound of rolling drums, and jiāo weaved a thrilling battle march.
The sun is rising, and the clouds are hazy. With a loud and energetic horn, the tens of thousands of cavalry troops of the Xia Dynasty Empire arrived in an instant, and the long black sè was like a pine forest all over the field.
Under the command of Shen Mingling, he quickly organized the defense force, and the cavalry on both wings was 50,000 each, a total of 200,000 red army, just like the maple forest in the autumn sè, fiery and red, just divided into three sides to resist the cavalry outflanked by the Xia Dynasty Empire.
These are two armies with comparable strength but very different styles, not to mention that the ** team of the Emperor of the Xia Dynasty holds a broad long sword, and the ** team of the Emperor of Xiyuan has a crescent sword, and the cavalry on both wings is even different. Suddenly, the emperor of the Xia Dynasty made a big drum and horn, and the banner hunted in the wind. The cavalry on both wings of the Xiyun Emperor's ** team took the lead, and the soldiers of the Chinese army stepped in neat steps, and the mountain city wall squad advanced, shouting "kill" every three steps, and they actually rumbled into the bī calmly. At the same time, the terrible sound of the bull's horn shook the Xixia Plain, the cavalry on both wings roared to meet the attack, and the heavy infantry also unstoppably and arrogantly stride, as if the black sea was sweeping across the ground.
