Chapter 422: Gently Shaking the Banner and Arresting Meng Shou

On the night of the Shangyuan Festival, the bright full moon hangs high.

Yonghong looked up at the bright moon above his head, and he couldn't help but curse a few times in his heart.

After thousands of calculations, I didn't count the bright moonlight tonight.

Since it is a night attack, what is important is a concealment and suddenness.

The bright moon will, to a certain extent, weaken the concealment and suddenness of your own army.

It's just that thinking of the information he got during the day, Yonghong didn't worry too much in his heart.

Many people in the world suffer from night blindness, which is especially evident among the ordinary strokes of the Han Chinese.

Although Yonghong did not know what caused the night blindness, Yonghong, who had lived in Nanzhong for many years, knew that night blindness was not obvious among the Yi people.

This is inseparable from the living habits of the Yi people.

In terms of life as a whole, the Yi people certainly did not live as well as the Han people, who had an agriculture-based lifestyle.

However, because of the completely different living habits of the Han people, the Yi people will be hungry, but they have not eaten less meat since they were young.

This difference makes the Yi people, or the aliens of the world, not easy to have night blindness.

If it weren't for this, Yonghong would not have thought of attacking the camp.

While Yonghong was observing the sky, Meng Shu, who was standing beside him, was inspiring the sons behind him.

Since it was a night attack, it was bound to bring not too many soldiers and horses, and tonight Yonghong and Meng Shu brought 3,000 men and horses.

Of course, no matter how big Yonghong is, he will not think that he will successfully take the Han army camp with 3,000 men.

In Yonghong's imagination, when the time was ripe, Meng Shu led the 3,000 men and horses to attack the Han army camp.

When their 3,000 men caused enough panic in the Han camp, he would lead the large army in the rear to defeat the enemy in the Han camp in one fell swoop.

In order to ensure the success of the night attack, Yonghong did not let Meng Shu lead his three thousand sons too close to the Han army camp.

At present, the 3,000 Yi troops are gathered in a dense forest a few miles away from the Han army camp.

The dark sky and dense forests became the most effective means of concealment for the 3,000 Yi army.

Yonghong believed that no matter how good Zhuge Liang was, he would never have expected that just a few miles away from his camp, there would be an elite army ready to attack him at any time.

Unless he can predict the prophet.

Just when he was constantly thinking about the night attack for a while, the scout sent by Yonghong before returned to the dense forest and reported a message to Yonghong:

"Not long ago, there was a lot of cheering in the enemy's camp, but now it has gradually stopped."

Hearing this information, Yonghong subconsciously clenched the steel knife in his hand.

I think that the celebration of Shangyuan Festival in the camp of the Han army has stopped, and now it is the time for the Han army to start resting.

And at this time, isn't it exactly what he dreamed of?

Thinking of this, Yonghong found Meng Shu and said to him: "King Meng, the time has come!" ”

In order to ensure the success of the night attack, it is necessary to use a large number of Yi troops.

The soldiers under the command of Yonghong are mainly Han soldiers, so most of the soldiers who participated in the night attack tonight are the descendants of Meng Huo.

This is also an important reason why Yonghong must get Meng Yu's assistance.

Since most of the people in tonight's night attack were Meng Huo's sons, the actual commander of tonight's night attack must be Meng Huo.

Hearing Yonghong say that the time had come, a solemn look appeared on Meng Huo's face.

He wasn't very much in favor of tonight's night attack, but the matter had come to this point, and even if he had a different opinion in his heart, Meng Shu had no way out.

Meng Huo nodded at Yonghong, and then he began to command his people with a special and strange gesture.

Under the command of Meng Huo's strange gestures, the spirits of the three thousand Yi troops were all lifted together.

Then, before Yonghong could react, the three thousand Yi troops headed towards the Han army camp several miles away like ghosts at night.

Originally, the sight of these 3,000 Yi troops at night was not affected, but the dark environment would cause great trouble to the army's march.

After all, during a night attack, the army could not be commanded by the sound of drums.

However, for the 3,000 Yi army, this obstacle did not have much impact.

For the Han Chinese army, their geographical composition was often very complex.

In this case, even ordinary communication between ordinary Han troops was a serious problem, so they were bound to command through the method of "watching the flag during the day and listening to the drums at night".

The Yi army led by Meng Huo was a clansman who lived together in peacetime.

They have the same customs, they have the same language codes, and they even have their own gestures.

The Yi army, with these characteristics, compared to any powerful army in the world, did not need a strict organizational structure to make their commanders command them with ease.

This is the advantage of the alien races over any Han army, and it is also the cornerstone of their ability to become some special operations forces.

Seeing the 3,000 Yi army quietly marching towards the Han army camp like a ghost, Yonghong's face appeared happy, but unlike Meng Shu, Yonghong fell at the end of the 3,000 Yi army.

Meng Shu didn't care about this, tonight's night attack, according to Yonghong's assumption, was originally his wisdom and his own efforts.

The march of the three thousand Yi troops was very fast, and it did not take long for them to reach the gate of the Han army's camp.

And perhaps the heavens were helping the three thousand Yi troops, and when they arrived at the camp gate outside the Han army's camp, the bright moon in the sky was covered by a few dark clouds.

All of a sudden, the already faint light between heaven and earth lost most of it.

In addition, the Han army may really be as Yonghong judged, and tonight's celebration of the Shangyuan Festival has minimized their vigilance.

So at present, looking at the Han army camp from Meng Shu's line of sight, there are not many soldiers on duty outside the camp gate of the Han army camp.

This scene made Meng Shu's heart reassured.

Although there were all kinds of fortifications outside the Han army camp, the fortifications that were not defended by no one could be described as nothing.

Meng Shu did not waste time, and after seeing that the defense of the Han army camp was so lax, he immediately commanded three thousand Yi troops to kill the Han army camp.

For a while, outside the camp gate of the Han army's camp, there were bursts of shouts and killings like ghost howls.

The sudden shouting of slaughter seemed to frighten the poor Han soldiers outside the camp gate, and when they saw the sudden appearance of countless enemies in the night and slaughter them, they were all so frightened that they left their posts and ran towards their own camp.

The reaction of those Han soldiers fell in Meng Huo's eyes, which filled him with confidence in his heart.

Confident in a lifetime, heroic suddenly.

Meng Shu laughed and commanded the clansmen behind him in Yi language, and rushed away from the rejecting horse that was blocking in front of him.

When Meng Shu led 3,000 Yi troops to rush to the front of the Han army camp, Meng Shu did not hesitate at all, and he and the first few generals of Chong used the big knife in their hands to split the gate blocking the road in front of him.

Under the slashing of several brute generals with big shoulders and round waists, the gate of the Han army camp fell backwards to the ground like fragile tofu.

When the wooden gate hit the ground, there was a loud noise.

The sound is particularly loud in the quiet of the night.

And when this burst of sound began to spread to the inside of the Han army camp, Meng Shu and the 3,000 Yi army led by him rushed into the Han army camp.

After Meng Shu rushed into the Han army camp, he was still screaming, and immediately noticed that something was wrong.

It's quiet, it's so quiet!

Perhaps the Han army in the camp has just finished celebrating the Mid-Autumn Festival, and most of them are now resting.

But it shouldn't be so quiet.

In particular, the noise he made just now was not small, and it stands to reason that there should not be a commotion in the Han army camp now?

Meng Huo, who had read the book of soldiers, knew about the "camp roar", and he deliberately made such a loud noise in the Han army camp, in order to trigger this happy thing.

But now the reaction of the Han army camp made Meng Shu instinctively start to doubt.

He agreed with Yonghong's night attack strategy because he thought that Zhuge Liang would also be careless.

But he doesn't think Zhuge Liang is deaf!

The same Meng Huo does not consider himself a fool.

So after realizing that it was unusual, Meng Shu immediately rejected the strategy suggested by the clansmen to set fire to the camp, and a look of panic appeared on his face, and then shouted in Yi to call out the son lang behind him to withdraw from the Han army camp.

Meng Shu's reaction can't be said to be slow, it's just that the Han army camp is not something he can come and leave as soon as he wants.

Just as the 3,000 Yi army, under the command of Meng Shu, was panicked and ready to turn around, the depths of the Han army camp resounded with drums.

The high sound of drums is particularly breathtaking in the quiet of the night.

And after Meng Shu heard this burst of drums, the panic on his face gradually turned into horror.

On that day, outside the Yandao, the Han army was inspired by such drums to defeat his more than 10,000 Yi troops.

The panic in his heart made Meng Shu urge the erlang who got up to retreat faster, but at this moment, the drastic changes that occurred in the Han army camp made Meng Shu almost frightened.

I saw that first some lights lit up in the depths of the Han army camp, and then those lights were like the brilliance of the morning sun, enveloping the entire Han army camp in it at a very fast speed.

It didn't take long for the entire Han army camp to become bright.

Meng Shu looked at the lights and found that the entire Han army camp was illuminated by countless torches and lanterns.

Colorful lanterns are hung high on the Shangyuan Festival, and there is nothing wrong with it.

And after the firelight illuminated the entire Han army camp, the Han army, which was originally hidden in the darkness, also appeared.

The sound of armor colliding from all directions, and the sound of the army's footsteps instantly broke the hearts of Meng Shu and the three thousand Yi troops.

Then a group of Han troops with sharp swords in their hands ran in the firelight, and surrounded Meng Shu and his 3,000 Yi army.

The scene that happened all around took place between lightning and flint, and this scene was enough to prove that the Han army had been prepared.

After seeing this scene, Meng Shu was already in tears.

He searched everywhere for Yonghong's figure, and the constantly jumping firelight around him made Meng Huo's gaze as sharp as in the daytime.

But now, where can he still find Yonghong's figure.

Just when Meng Huo was searching for Yonghong's figure everywhere, the Han army formation in front of Meng Huo spontaneously separated from both sides, and then in the passage separated by the Han army, a four-wheeled vehicle slowly appeared in Meng Huo's eyes under the push of a boy.

The person sitting on the four-wheeled car has a lupine scarf, with a graceful bearing, who else can he be if he is not Prime Minister Zhuge ?

When Zhuge Liang appeared in front of Meng Shu, looking at Meng Shu, who was already encircled, Zhuge Liang laughed and asked:

"King Meng, I don't want you and me to meet again so soon."

Zhuge Liang's voice was pure and powerful, and it smoothly drifted into Meng Shu's ears through the sound of the wind.

And after Meng Shu heard Zhuge Liang's greeting emotion, he almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood.

Meng Huo is not such an easy person to admit defeat.

Even if he is now surrounded by the Han army, he feels that he is not far from the gate of the Han army's camp, and he still has 3,000 brave Yi troops, so it may not be impossible to break out.

So Meng Huo began to command the formation of three thousand children.

Even if he dies tonight, he will fight with dignity.

Meng Huo's actions were captured by Zhuge Liang, and he could see at a glance what Meng Huo wanted.

As the saying goes, trapped beasts are still terrifying.

It's just that Zhuge Liang was not worried about Meng Shu's counterattack before his death.

Under the light of the fire, Zhuge Liang slowly raised the order flag in his hand.

Now the lighting of the Han army camp is like daylight, so Zhuge Liang's actions were quickly watched by the Han army.

Then Zhuge Liang waved the order flag in his hand a few times under the gaze of a group of Han soldiers, and when Zhuge Liang's handsome order was passed out, the Han army that surrounded Meng Shu immediately changed formation.

Groups of sword and shield soldiers retreated, and then groups of pikemen stepped forward, and what frightened Meng Shu the most was that archers who could not tell the number of archers appeared on the tall buildings of the Han army's camp.

Countless archers put their longbows on sharp arrows from high places, and then, taking advantage of their condescending superiority, aimed their sharp arrows at Meng Shu and his three thousand Yi troops.

A breeze blew, and when the breeze sent the woody aroma of the longbow to Meng Huo's nose, Meng Huo seemed to smell death.

He almost fell to his knees.

Seeing that the power of deterrence was enough, Zhuge Liang laughed again and asked Meng Shu: "King Meng, today's fighting generals, fighting soldiers?" ”

As soon as Zhuge Liang's words fell, he saw Zhao Yun, who was dressed in a white robe, immediately pick up his gun and come to the front of the three thousand Yi army.

Not only did Zhao Yun take action, but even the thousands of Han archers on the surrounding high-rise buildings also made a burst of bow-drawing sounds.

The prime minister of the Han Dynasty used the gentlest words to say the deepest murderous intentions.

And under this deep murderous deterrence, Meng Shu threw the long knife in his hand aside without hesitation, and then knelt straight towards Zhuge Liang.

There is still a fundamental difference between the trapped beast and the fish on the chopping board.

After seeing Meng Huo's move to abandon his weapon, Zhuge Liang smiled and asked the soldiers behind him to step forward and tie Meng Huo up.

It's as if he's just done something insignificant.

And as Meng Shu was tied to the rope by the Han army, the three thousand Yi troops behind him gradually put down their weapons.

If the situation is not there, then surrender first, the old way of survival of the alien race.

Yonghong, who looked frightened, was running wildly in the dense forest with a few relatives.

The direction in which he was running wild was Qiongdu.

Because of the division of labor with Meng Huo, he did not rush into the Han army camp with Meng Huo for the first time just now, which made Yonghong invisibly escape.

Thinking of the brightly lit scene he saw outside the Han army camp, Yonghong's heart was full of happiness for the rest of his life.

But a heavy thought unconsciously appeared in Yonghong's heart: his ally Meng Shu is over.
