Chapter 36: Night Attack
The weather is bad tonight.
Before the time came, a light rain began to fall in the sky.
By the time of the third watch, the rain had turned from small to heavy, and it had become a pouring down.
In the four guards of the North Ya, which had just been rebuilt, all the soldiers held their breath.
If you want to wash away the shame of your incompetence, you must also be worthy of the military salary you receive today.
So in this pouring rain, no one complained, and no one made a single sound.
Thundered......
Thunder rang out.
It's like the beating of a war drum.
Lu Bu dragged Fang Tian's halberd, looked at the city wall of the black hole, and counted the time.
Behind him was the elite of the heavily armed trap camp.
The original white helmet and white armor have been covered with black cloth.
Because from time to time there is lightning streaked across the night sky.
"Rush!"
Lu Bu let out a low snort.
Thundered......
Immediately afterward, another muffled thunder sounded.
The soldiers who were a little farther away could not hear the commander's instructions clearly.
But they could also see a tall figure in the darkness.
This figure is Gao Shun
He was running towards the city wall with a sword and shield in hand.
The warriors in the camp hurriedly raised their feet to follow.
Rear.
The 15,000 people of the North Ya and the four guards also slowly groped towards the city wall.
This era.
The number of people infected with night blindness is very high.
Among the four guards of the North Ya, there are more than ordinary people, and they can't even see the road clearly.
He could only stagger forward in the darkness with the voice of the robe.
Fortunately, the trapped camp soldiers are all cyborgs produced by the system.
There was no such thing as night blindness, and with the lightning that pierced the sky from time to time, they could see the roads on the ground.
Now.
Li Mao stood on top of a nearby restaurant and watched from afar.
He didn't have any guards with him, and he didn't wear a dragon robe.
With his skills, the guards of the palace did not find out that the emperor had secretly escaped from the palace.
Even the staff of this restaurant did not notice that there was one more person in their house.
Upstairs in Mingde Gate.
The muffled thunder was very deafening.
Pei Kuan couldn't sleep at all, so he climbed the city tower to inspect the defense.
Under the heavy rain, the sense of hearing is completely useless.
However, vision is also limited.
The raindrops were dense in lines, like a curtain hanging in the sky.
Pei Kuan looked far away, and he couldn't see the situation ten zhang away.
"General, the rain is so heavy that even the city walls are waterlogged, it is impossible for the enemy army to come to sneak attack, go back and rest early!"
The guards came up and persuaded.
Pei Kuan looked down.
Because of the heavy rain, an inch of water had accumulated on the ground.
This is still on top of the three-zhang high city wall.
Pei Kuan judged that there was at least a foot of water on the ground.
"You're right, it's raining too much tonight for the enemy to ......"
The words are not finished yet.
Pei Kuan's mouth opened wide as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
The guards followed Pei Kuan's gaze.
I saw that above the battlements, a ladder suddenly appeared.
"Enemy attack!"
At this time, Pei Kuan finally reacted and turned his head and shouted to the rear.
Thundered!
There was another muffled thunder, which happened to cover Pei Kuan's voice.
Except for the two guards around him, the other soldiers on duty nearby didn't even hear it.
Pei Kuan looked at the unresponsive soldiers, and his heart was anxious.
"You go and inform Your Majesty that the enemy army is attacking at night!"
"You go to the barracks and inform the generals of the guards, so that they can quickly bring troops to support."
After Pei Kuan assigned the tasks of the two personal guards, he turned around and approached the city wall.
He wanted to push the ladder down.
However, the walls are only ten meters high.
This means that a trained warrior can climb in just a few seconds.
In the few seconds that Pei Kuan delayed, Gao Shun had already jumped into the city tower.
"Kill!"
With a loud shout, Pei Kuan raised his long knife and greeted him.
Gao Shun saw that he had been discovered by the enemy army, and he no longer remained silent.
He raised the sword and shield in his hand and shouted: "The will to fall into battle, there is death and no life!" ”
In an instant, more than a dozen warriors from the trap camp climbed the tower.
They came to the winner and behind Gao Shun, formed a formation, and shouted in unison: "The will to fall into battle, there is death and no life!" ”
The shouts of more than a dozen people were already like thunder.
The enemy troops on the city walls immediately panicked.
The two forces were fighting, if they hadn't seen the main general Pei Kuan still there, maybe they would have abandoned the city and fled.
It will be a gall in the army!
Pei Kuan also knew his role, and he didn't dare to show the slightest timidity at this time.
After taking a deep breath, he shouted at the soldiers of the Sixteenth Guard of the Southern Ya, who were already too frightened to move.
"There are not many thieves who climb the tower, everyone go up with me and drive the enemy off the city wall!"
Everyone looked at each other.
The first wave of people did not come up much, less than twenty people.
If you look around you again, you can count it roughly, and there are at least hundreds of people.
With the enemy outnumbered, the soldiers of the sixteen guards of the Southern Ya all showed courage.
"Kill!"
A loud shout.
Pei Kuan rushed towards Gao Shun.
Gao Shun did not face the enemy head-on, but squatted down, raised his shield, and shouted to the soldiers under his command: "Don't fight the enemy hard. ”
"Everyone raised their shields and covered each other."
The trapping soldiers did as they were told, and all of them hid their bodies behind their shields.
Pei Kuan's knife slashed firmly at the shield.
The huge force of the shock made his arms numb.
Look at what looks like a turtle shell in front of you.
Pei Kuan couldn't think of a countermeasure even if he broke his head.
It's easy to break through the formation, but to break it within tens of seconds, there is no other way than dozens of brave men charging into battle.
But now, Pei Kuan lacks brave men in his hands.
Gao Xianzhi's defeat wiped out the spirit of the sixteen guards of the Southern Ya.
It's okay to let these defeated armies defend the city, but it's almost impossible to get them to charge.
Pei Kuan also knows this truth very well.
Therefore, in the case of the superiority of troops in hand, he still retreated here, just to rely on the city wall to defend.
Seeing more and more enemies ascending the tower.
Pei Kuan knew that this city wall could no longer be defended.
"Withdraw!"
Gao Shun didn't expect the enemy army to be so vulnerable.
There was no official battle yet, and the main general actually fled directly, leaving only ordinary soldiers with bewildered faces.
"The enemy general has fled, everyone rush down with me and open the city gates!"
Gao Shun shouted.
Take the lead and pursue the enemy.
The current marching path is made of makeshift giant trees.
The fleeing enemy troops, in a panic, from time to time someone falls.
From time to time, lightning streaks across the sky.
reflects the tragic situation of these people.
The stubble of Mori Bai's bones pierced the flesh and skin, making everyone who saw it feel cold.
Gao Shun looked at the crowded fleeing enemy troops, and the road had been completely blocked.
Very anxious, he hurriedly shouted: "Put down your arms and surrender immediately, I will guarantee that you will not have to worry about your lives!" ”
"I surrender!"
"I surrender!"
"Don't kill me!"
"I have an eighty-year-old mother and a three-year-old child."
Hearing that there was no need to die, most of the people raised their hands and knelt directly in surrender.
