Chapter 493: Night Attack

The current situation is really in a hurry, and everyone is in a hurry. The troops of the Saigus Empire have been suffering from artillery in the main city for a day, although the city wall is still strong and has not been penetrated, but the current situation is also full of holes, as if it may fall at any time, of course, they are still waiting for Ye Junwen's side to retreat, and they still believe that Ye Junwen's side will not last long.

Ye Junwen is also very anxious here, after all, there is an accident in China, and the city wall has not been opened for a day, so it is really a headache.

But there was someone who was more anxious than them, and that was the Earl of Berford. He is now leading the 40,000 troops he had just rescued to the west of Ye Junwen's garrison, and Ye Junwen estimated that their current situation was a lack of food, supplies, and everything. The equipment of 40,000 people is simply impossible, he took out all the weapons and equipment, and it is comparable to being able to arm 10,000 people, not to mention the armor, and the rest of the people do not even have weapons. And the more serious problem is grain and grass.

Originally, Bai Ford thought that he could wait for Ye Junwen's reaction, and it was impossible for the other party to directly give up besieging the main city to attack them, so that he would wait for the other party to send troops out, and then find a way to solve these troops, and then he could get some supplies of weapons and food, but what he didn't expect was that Ye Junwen actually ignored them.

Yes, the reason why he is anxious now is not only these, he doesn't know about Ye Junwen's domestic accident, they haven't been in contact with the people in the city yet, and the people in the city don't know about their army, and of course they don't know the situation in the city. So Bai Ford didn't know that Ye Junwen was actually in a hurry to return to China, he felt that Ye Junwen was still very stable and besieged the city with peace of mind over there.

Naturally, Berford was even more anxious. At this time, their food and grass were almost exhausted, and these captives Ye Junwen naturally would not kindly prepare too much food for them, just just give them a little to barely let them live, they were starving to death, but they escaped without anything to eat, where could they withstand it. Bai Fu realized that if he waited like this, his troops might be hungry to the point of collapse, and after thinking about it, there was only one way, and that was to attack Ye Junwen's troops, and only there would be food and grass for them.

However, Bai Ford also knew that this was not a wise move, the other party did not send troops to chase them, it is estimated that he had already guessed their situation, that is to say, he was waiting to find him, this is a trap. However, the question now is ...... Do they have any other options?

Without grain and grass, their troops either disbanded by themselves, or went to grab Ye Junwen's grain and grass, just these two ways, Bai Fu naturally did not want to disband on his own, not to mention his ambitions, the current situation, the empire is in need of troops, can this be disbanded?

Thinking of this, Bai Ford began to gather troops, explained the current situation to them, and called on everyone to launch an active attack on Ye Junwen's military camp.

Not to mention that these soldiers really listened to him, now Berford's reputation in the army is quite high, although there are generals with much higher ranks than him in the army he rescued, but no one can shake the current position of Berford's leadership. This prestige mainly comes from his record, you must know that Ye Junwen is a person who has never been defeated so far, the god of the Continental Army, and although Bai Fu did not defeat Ye Junwen head-on, he can be regarded as defeating his troops, and this record alone has made other soldiers obey him. What's more, only 600 people defeated 20,000 people in this kind of battle, and the gold content is still very high.

And now it is indeed a national disaster, they also know that now the soldiers in the country are basically finished, and the main city is in danger, Yu Gong said, they are also contributing to the country, Yu private, they have no other way, what are they going to eat if they don't fight? Coupled with Berford raising his arms and shouting, all the soldiers' fighting spirit was stirred up for a while, and they decided to rush this wave.

Of course, if you want to rush, you can't rush blindly, Bai Ford showed that he sent scouts to reconnoiter a little and determine the situation in Ye Junwen's military camp. Although no enemy ambush troops were found, the location of the attack was roughly determined. Yes, the location chosen by Bai Ford is the location where the artillery camp is located, according to his thoughts, Ye Junwen must be on guard against them, after all, they are famous generals in the world, and their location has long been discovered, you say that it is impossible to ignore it at all.

Since this is the case, no matter where the impact will be found, then directly impact the artillery camp. During the day, Berford had already seen the power of these cannons with their own eyes, and they were shocked from a long distance, the walls of the main city were crumbling, and sooner or later they would be breached, and if they wanted to help, it would be the best to destroy these cannons.

If the cannon is destroyed, the crisis in the main city will be much reduced, and then they have another option, which is to go directly to the main city and join the troops on the main city. Naturally, there is food and grass over there, and with the cannon destroyed, they should also be able to rely on the main city to defend for a while.

Why don't they join the forces in the main city now? Of course, this question is too stupid, if you go during the day, it won't be a live target, Ye Junwen's artillery unit will bomb you casually. If you go at night, do you think the troops in the main city will open the door? It was pitch black, and a large army appeared under the city, and the people of the main city did not know their existence at all, so they might have shot them with arrows. Besides, if there are cannons, even if they converge with the people of the main city and enter the main city, what can they do, they are not waiting for the city to be broken, so Bai Ford thinks that they can be regarded as an advantage outside, at least they have a chance to destroy the cannon.

If the cannon is destroyed, they will at least not be shelled when they go to join up with the troops in the main city, and the people of the main city will also cover them on the walls, and their chances of survival will be greatly improved.

After the discussion, Bai Fuding made a plan. The time of the attack was set in the early hours of the morning when it was almost dawn, this time was the most sleepy time for people, and the possibility of the enemy having a flaw was very high, and secondly, after the attack was at dawn, they could go directly to the main city and join the troops in the main city, which was also part of the plan.

Because there was no supply of food and grass, at this time, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers would drop by one more day, and Bai Ford could not wait any longer, so he decided to start the operation tonight. So the troops rested for a while hungry, and in the middle of the night everyone began to assemble, and the troops began to march to the southeast, sparing the most likely ambush positions in the east, and heading to the artillery camp to the south.

However, it is a pity that as Bai Ford expected, Ye Junwen is waiting for them here. The amount of grain and grass on the other side Ye Junwen also counted, and the other party will definitely come to attack them Ye Junwen also said, and the time is estimated to be tonight, so Ye Junwen didn't open artillery to attack the city overnight tonight, he was just waiting for them.

As soon as Bai Ford's troops moved, Ye Junwen had already received the news, and the scouts in the unit could find out their movements without Slater and them. has been prepared to this point, if the other party can still attack, Ye Junwen said that it is better for him to lose.

"You say, this Berford itself is not bad?" Ye Junwen asked the general next to him, yes, this general is the general who was beaten by Ye Junwen with eighty lashes before, of course, although this general seems to have been beaten very seriously, but in fact the matter is not big, just take a little healing medicine, it is almost fine, it is all skin trauma. The soldier in charge of the execution also knew that if Ye Junwen wanted to kill someone, he would be killed directly, and the whipping was sparing his life, and he would not put too heavy a hand, so after a day of treatment, the general was alive again. Now I take the initiative to ask for my life, naturally for the sake of shame.

"Yes, he is also very strong personally." The general here replied, "Ordinary soldiers are not his enemies, and I was almost killed by him, and the marshal wants to ......."

"I didn't obey him." Ye Junwen hurriedly said, "In my troops, loyalty is the most important, although this guy has some military talents, do you think he will surrender?" ”

"I don't think so." The general here immediately said, "Marshal, if nothing else, if you want to be loyal, I am definitely the most loyal to your lordship." ”

"I know, that's why I'll spare you once." Ye Junwen said, "But if you want to be ashamed, I guess you don't have this opportunity, I'm not in a good mood today, and I want to cut someone with my own hands to relax." ”

"My lord, it's that guy's honor to do it yourself." The general immediately said, "I wish you good luck and prosperity." ”

"Hmm." Ye Junwen nodded, yes he wanted to go back again, this time when he went back, Ye Junwen wanted to get Keseromino back. He thought about it, the lizardman problem, maybe it would be most convenient for Xeromino to deal with it. Yes, although the involvement of the saint-level in the war will attract the attention of the saint-level alliance, but the problem is that there are exceptions, such as the case of Xeromino, he himself was hunted down by Dragon Valley, and it seems that he has also provoked a lot of saint-level, he is not worried about these problems at all. Now there are not many people who at least have a relationship with Xthromino, saying that the lizardmen's forces disturbed Xthromino and then were completely wiped out by him, this has nothing to do with the war, the Holy Alliance should pursue them and let them pursue it.

Then since he wants to go back, naturally Bai Ford, who is sent to the door now, is the best choice, but Ye Junwen has not seen it with his own eyes, and he doesn't know if this Bai Ford can kill him.
