Chapter 686: Fierce Army

Zhou Shangwen has led the army for decades, how could he not guard against a sneak attack when he broke into the vast Western Regions for the first time?

The 40,000 soldiers and horses scattered on this yellow sand land are actually very vast, and there is movement in one point, and the other parts may not be felt yet.

Ma Sheng climbed the man-made tower and looked into the distance, and saw a little spark and the sound of fighting in the southwest direction in the darkness.

At this time, the generals in Zhou Shangwen's tent also came out: each go back to his own camp, and the camera will meet the enemy!

Bang!!

Suddenly, fireworks went off in the southwest.

"Right there, that's the signal from the Dark Sentinel!"

Of course Ma Sheng recognizes.

When the army is out, there are two basic precautions to prevent a sneak attack.

First, the dark whistle.

These people were scattered around the barracks, lurking, and as soon as they heard movement, they immediately released the signal.

Second, patrols.

As the name suggests, there are special squads that patrol all night.

Before leaving, Ma Rong said hello to his eldest brother Ma Sheng, "The big battle is about to start, brother take care of your body!" ”

"Don't be afraid! Unafraid! ”

After a while, three younger youths all ran in front of him, "General Ma! ”

Of course, Ma Sheng recognized his subordinates, "It's just right to come, go back and call the rabbit cubs, get on the horse, and go with me!" ”

"Yes!!"

Sneak attacks are not afraid.

There have been rehearsals before.

This is even more true for Wu Yongfei, a small flag of 10 people, who is on patrol.

There was nothing to be seen in the night, only the flames of the three iron pots illuminated the soldiers.

Gradually, there was a 'boom', 'boom' sound.

It's the sound of horses' hooves!

Choke!

Wu Yongfei pulled out the knife, he didn't see anything, but the combat experience told him what to do, "Be careful with the bow and arrow!" ”

This sentence landed, but in fact, there is no follow-up.

But after a few breaths, there was a 'whoosh', 'whoosh' sound of breaking the air.

"Raise your shield! Raise your shield! ”

Wu Yongfei kicked the soldier who was in a daze next to him, "Everyone, listen to me!" The signal has been lifted into the air, and the general must know that there is a sneak attack by the enemy here, and all we have to do is to slow down the enemy with all our strength and buy time! Don't panic, don't mess around! ”

This is an experienced elite unit that will not foolishly face the enemy's initial rain of arrows and not know how to dodge.

Whether it's blocking, crouching, or looking for cover, these people are trying all kinds of ways, and it's not easy for them to easily throw their lives here.

Not only that, but after the initial danger, two rows of shield-raising men immediately appeared, and behind them, the archers were ready.

"Put!!"

The enemy must have been a cavalry charge, so the time was very tight, and what about the night, and there was no way to aim, so it was true to shoot all the arrows quickly.

With a scream, the Ming soldiers also judged the distance of the enemy.

The night was a cover, and these people rushed out of hell as if they had come out of hell, and they rode their horses and brandished scimitars, and they rushed straight ahead!

"Kill! Fight the enemy! ”

Ji Shan was a little nervous, but the atmosphere at this time didn't allow him to think too much, and none of the comrades around him were flustered, scared, or retreated, so he couldn't be like that.

Bang!!

The flow of people and the flow of fire finally collided together.

At the same time, the drums of 'dong dong dong' began to appear in the tent of the Ming army's camp.

All the blood exploded at this moment.

Ji Shan is a relatively tall soldier, it should be said that the soldiers of the first class guard are not weak, the enemy led the horse to step on him, Ji Shan quickly rolled and dodged, and at the same time cut the horse's leg with a twist of the scimitar!

"Well done, I'll come!" Wu Yongfei shouted hello, and at the same time flew up and kicked away the Turpan soldiers who wanted to sneak attack Jishan.

Ji Shan stood up again, as if he felt that his whole body was moving, "I killed one!" Refreshing! ”

The blood of men is completely awakened at this moment.

……

Ya Mulan had some bad premonitions in his heart, and he felt very different from Ming Jun as soon as he came into contact.

These people are not straw bales, these people are very brave and good at fighting!

He has been fighting for many years, and at a glance he knows that people's methods of dealing with sneak attacks are orderly.

Not only that, but they also woke up these 40,000 people.

Standing slightly higher up in the distance, he could see two fast-moving fire dragons.

It was supposed to be Ming soldiers with torches, and they came around from behind, and were rapidly approaching here.

That's right, it was the brave Ma Sheng and his 3,000 cavalry.

"Credit to you! Credit to it! ”

The trampling horses gradually rose from the yellow sand, and the vast wasteland sounded the shouts of the Han people, and the soldiers followed the generals to gallop here at will.

Ya Mulan has never seen a Ming army like this, even Hamiwei has never been in the city.

When did the Ming army have such cavalry with a certain wild feeling?

Ma Sheng ran to the place where the flames were at its deepest, and he soon saw the enemy reflected in the firelight.

After many days of immobility, his hands were very itchy, so he began to bend his bow and arrows on his horse, aiming carefully, and then put his palm down, and an enemy soldier in the distance answered the voice.

"The general is good at archery!"

"Let's come too!!"

"Up! Slow and no soup to drink! ”

This is the real army built with silver and the flames of war.

The enemy is in front of them, and they charge except for the charge.

I don't know how many Turpan troops are disturbing this way, anyway, there is a piece in the eye, Ma Sheng quickly led the men and horses to rush in.

Once inside, there is a collision of blood and fire.

One of the foot soldiers in the patrol, Ji Shan, had already snatched a horse, and he was wearing heavy armor and wielding a spear like a fierce tiger among the enemy troops. Behind him there seemed to be countless warriors rushing towards him, slaughtering their captors one by one.

The bravery and ferocity of the Ming army were concretized at this moment, and it didn't take long to suppress the originally sneak attack of the Turpan army.

Ya Mulan quickly became nervous, "Prepare to withdraw, prepare to withdraw." ”

The Ming army's reaction was so fast that the sneak attack had lost its meaning.

However, it is not so easy to withdraw, and the Ming army has horses.

In the center of the army, Zhou Shangwen used a thousand miles of mirror tube to observe the battle situation in the southwest, and said to Ling Weifeng beside him: "Didn't you say that Sutan Mansuer is a strong master?" Could it be that his talent is not leading the troops? ”

Ling Weifeng didn't know what to say, who knew that all the cavalry under your command were such fierce cavalry, they didn't panic when they encountered the enemy, and they were extremely sharp when they charged.

Everywhere, it's a tiger army.

"It's the general who leads the troops well, and it's better than full speed."

Zhou Shangwen only listened to such flattery words, and he was still calmly ordering, "The night is not good for us, and the terrain here is strange, it is easy to get lost, and Ma Sheng is ordered not to chase him alone." Let's just say what General Ben said, no matter how hot your brain is, calm down Lao Tzu. ”

"Yes!"

Ling Weifeng was curious about what Zhou Shangwen had in his hand, "General, what is this?" ”

"Oh, Your Majesty gave it, once Your Majesty discussed with some people in the Gewu Academy, saying that there is such a thing. Qi Cheng, the secretary of the military department who had already sent a message, felt that it would be of great benefit to make this thing on the battlefield...... However, the first time I used it, I didn't see it very clearly, and it may be a prototype. But at the moment of the big war, it is one point that can play a role. ”

Saying that, he also gave Ling Weifeng a try.

The latter looked into his eyes and was amazed, "There is such a strange thing!" In this way, you can see the battlefield dynamics in time from here! Sure enough, it's a rich battle! ”

"These treasures have been delivered, which shows Your Majesty's expectations." Zhou Shangwen muttered silently, and then clenched his fists tightly, "Wei Feng, your people are more familiar here, since they appear tonight, they must touch their main force." ”

Ling Weifeng didn't dare to be careless, "Don't worry, the general, since the last general guessed that Man Suer would sneak attack, the preparations in advance must have been sufficient." ”

"Good! Ben will believe in you. ”

The Han people are actually very good because we are very good at organizing. As long as the Central Dynasty puts enough soldiers, enough supplies, and the right generals here, we will not fail easily.

What's more, there is still such an army of tigers!

"Turpan has retreated!"

Zhou Shangwen was still expressionless, he turned around and entered the camp.

He was secretly happy only in a place where no one was around, and when he first engaged in the battle, he already had some understanding, and this Mansuer was also the king and hegemon here, and in fact, it should not be able to stop the Ming army in his hands at all.

"General!" Ma Rong and Ling Weifeng both walked in, "They have indeed retreated, it should be a small victory." ”

"Yes." Zhou Shangwen turned around, "But there is nothing to be proud of, tomorrow's army will continue to march towards Turpan." Everyone, let's also go and see the ancient country of Gaochang! ”

Ling Weifeng was puzzled, "Aren't you going to find the main force of Turpan?" ”

Ma Rong explained with a smile, "The way of using soldiers is virtual and real, and it is unpredictable. We're going after them now, that's too direct. Let them think that we are going to Turpan, and wait until they really believe it, and then give them another blow! ”

The fact that it is not a good idea does not mean that it does not talk about how to use troops at all.

Zhou Shangwen's plan is to make the other party uncomfortable, if you don't believe me, then the Ming army can really go, if you believe it, then give you a real surprise.

Famous generals, famous generals, how can this word be said so lightly.

Soon after, Ma Sheng returned from a victory.

This person's personality is a little reckless, Ling Weifeng saw that he completely obeyed the military orders, and knew that the general was strict in governing the army.

With such a commander and such an army, why not win?
