Chapter Eighty-Three: Fighting
The camp of the Jin army is not large, but it is not small for the team of hundreds of people, although it was built in a hurry, but the layout and defensive measures are complete.
The shouts of killing exploded the moment the gate opened, and the excited Jin sergeant stared at the bloodthirsty eyes and ran inward with his blade held high, like a feast.
But soon everyone's voices faded until they disappeared.
There are still steps.
Du Tan and Liu Dong, who were in the second echelon, changed their expressions greatly, and they didn't have to think about the situation to know that it was definitely the vanguard who rushed in and encountered an ambush.
It's just that I don't know why there is no shouting for killing.
The golden soldiers who entered the camp went much more smoothly than expected, and there was nothing in the front camp except for some wagons, scattered baggage, and some fires.
There was no panic, no screaming, and no Jin army general came out to pretend to say: I have been waiting for you for a long time.
The preparations for this night attack on Du Tan were relatively sufficient, and even informed everyone of the various situations they might encounter, including an ambush.
Moreover, officers at all levels did not dare to hide when they went down to convey it, and they used 1,500 elites to raid and defeat the old and weak soldiers, even if there was an ambush?
Because of this, whether it was Du Tan or Liu Dong, even if they were strongly uneasy in their hearts, they still ordered an attack.
But the situation in front of me was unexpected.
Is this an empty camp?
Don't you even have a patrol soldier?
The scene was terrible for a short period of silence.
No, it can't be said to be completely quiet.
At this time, the hustle and bustle of the Jin army's rear camp began to appear and gradually increased.
It was the Jin army that began to react, and the shouts of the enemy attack resounded throughout the rear camp.
Du Tan and Liu Dong soon came to the front, and the Jin soldiers made way of a path and gathered again.
The situation that caught their eyes puzzled both of them.
No ambush?
Nothing?
But the movement of the Jin army made the two of them quickly come back to their senses.
It's all come to this point, it's all here, just quit like this?
No way.
It's simply impossible!
Moreover, the movement of the Jin army in the rear camp was obviously a little flustered.
There is no room for much hesitation at the end of the arrow, and even if it is too late to retreat now, there are already sporadic arrows shooting over.
The bronze long sword in Du Ran's hand waved domineeringly and said loudly: "Brothers, kill me~"
Hearing the order of the commander-in-chief, the Jin sergeant, who had been stunned for a while, suddenly burst out again with a passionate shout of killing and rushed forward.
Du Tan naturally wants to be in the rear, and there is no need to charge forward at the moment, otherwise what if there is an accident that is not long-sighted, and the son of the lord of the country is still by his side.
In order to prevent accidents, Du Tan not only arranged ambushes in the direction of the rear camp, but also arranged interceptors in several places around where it was possible to break through and run away.
More than 700 people were not crowded in the front camp of the Jin army, but they were almost paved at a glance.
There are Jin soldiers who climb the wall in a group, and pick up the bow and crossbow is to shoot.
From time to time, Jin soldiers screamed and fell, but this attack and casualties were not worth mentioning for the Jin army.
Liu Dong and Du Tan, who were supervising the battle in the rear, also looked at the charging subordinates with solemn expressions at this time, and this battle was of great significance.
The men and horses who rushed to the front had already carried ladders on top of the wall, and the shouts of killing began to be mixed with cheers, and more and more torches lit up the wall, and also lit up the light in the eyes of the golden soldiers.
The Jin army was obviously short of troops, but the Jin army didn't know that they had to climb the wall when they came in, so they only brought a limited number of long ladders, so they fell into a stalemate for a while.
"General, it's time for the rest of the men to move!" Liu Dong turned his head and said.
Although he was a little puzzled by the current situation, and it was too relaxed, Du Tan nodded heavily listening to the voices and panic in the Jin army camp.
The resistance of the Jin army was still fierce, and people kept pouring up the wall, shooting more and more bows and crossbows and arrows.
As Du Tan's head nodded, the direction of the Jin army's rear camp also sounded with earth-shattering shouts of killing.
There were two companies and an attacking force of more than 400 men.
"There are Jin soldiers in the back, quickly transfer people, hurry up~"
The panic in the Jin army camp clearly reached the ears of Du Tan and Liu Dong, and the two looked at each other and smiled, something big could be done.
The Jin army was already small and had to be forced to divide its troops, and the Jin soldiers who were attacking head-on suddenly felt a little less pressure, so they were even more excited.
Seeing that the offensive was going well, Du Tan's heart finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"General, why don't you add more strength?"
Liu Dong was full of energy, and his eyes were full of eagerness.
"Wait a little longer, don't worry, it's enough for more than 300 people to spread out in such a big place in the front camp of the Jin soldiers, and wait for the rest."
Liu Dong thought about it, and turned his head to look at the wall of the fight, several flames were flying, like tarsal bones, skewered on the wall, but in Liu Dong's eyes, there was a different scene.
"I'm afraid Your Highness won't be able to stop it, so you'd better withdraw quickly."
Wu Chengju half-knelt in front of Guan Cheng, who was neatly draped all over his body, and almost cried.
But Guan Cheng was unmoved, his face was full of fortitude.
Wu Chengju gritted his teeth and said: "If Your Highness does not withdraw, the minister, the minister can only kill himself." ”
Guan Cheng seemed to have just reacted, and lowered his head and asked, "Why do you want to withdraw?" ”
Wu Chengju hurriedly said: "Your Highness, the front camp that the enemy has broken through is attacking the wall at this time, there are thousands of people in front and behind, several times more than me, and they are well-equipped, and have the power of overthrowing. ”
"Wu Chengju."
Guan Cheng's voice floated down faintly, but it shocked Wu Chengju's heart, and it was never a good thing to be called by His Royal Highness's name.
He has been following Guan Cheng for more than ten years, how can he not know that Guan Cheng is already a little angry at this time.
"The minister is here!" Wu Chengju replied in a trembling voice.
Guan Cheng just looked at him like that, and the calmness in the sound of the battle made Wu Cheng's heart frightened.
There was even sweat already on his forehead.
After a while, Guan Chengfang asked again: "Gu once said that you have followed Gu the longest, and Gu hopes that you will always be the highest person in the Jin army, do you remember?" ”
"The minister doesn't dare to forget, and he doesn't dare to disappoint His Highness."
Guan Cheng's voice was still very flat: "You are good at martial arts, but the master of the army is not only force, Lone knows your loyalty, but Lone also hopes that your ability can make Lone's grace worthy of your loyalty." ”
These words made Wu Chengju surprised.
"What you have to do now is to block the attack of the Jin soldiers, don't worry about the rest, take a good look and find out, get up."
Hearing Guan Cheng's words, Wu Chengju didn't dare to hesitate, what he said just now had already explained a very serious problem, and he was a little disappointed by Guan Cheng.
A stronger sense of crisis made Wu Chengju's nerves tense, and at the same time, he didn't dare to persuade anymore.
"Go ahead, do what you have to do, Lone is still watching you."
Wu Cheng's heart was shocked, he clenched his fists heavily, pursed his lips and paused for a moment before resolutely turning away.
Guan Cheng shook his head and sighed, a little helpless, he had no choice, there were too few people in his hands, and the current Wu Chengju was obviously unable to take charge alone.
The sound of fighting is becoming more and more intense, and there are already Jin soldiers attacking the walled wall from time to time, if it were not for the small number of long ladders of the golden soldiers, and the limited space on the wall, I am afraid that there is already a danger of losing it.
"Golden thief, your Grandpa Wu is here! Death! ”
A loud shout filled the battlefield, and Wu Chengju showed invincible courage as soon as he came up, killing several Jin soldiers one after another, and the morale of the Jin army was slightly boosted for a while.
"This should be Wu Chengju. I have long heard that the original Donggong Wei led Sima to be a skilled ranger, and when I saw it today, this voice was not small. ”
Du Tan was quite disdainful of Wu Chengju, and ordered without looking back: "Go up again, work harder, I want to see what confidence this King Jin has." ”
How much role can individual martial arts on the battlefield be, counting on a martial arts move?
Du Tan and Liu Dong are very disdainful of this, and this is not a duel between the countryside.
With the addition of the new force, the offensive of the Jin soldiers became more violent, and some long ladders were temporarily made in the rear of the Jin soldiers, which made the already difficult situation even worse.
"It's a pity that if only there was fire oil, these wooden doors would have burned him to ashes."
Du Tan's tone was a little calm, but the situation made Liu Dong very happy.
"The Jin army can't take care of each other, a mere camp must be breached soon, and my son is here to congratulate Du Sima in advance."
Du Tan waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, the king of Jin has to be escorted to the son." ”
Liu Dong smiled and said, "This is a beautiful thing. ”
The two talked happily as if everything was under control.
And Guan Cheng, who was like a lamb to be slaughtered in their mouths, was riding on a horse at this time, looking at the fifty elite soldiers in front of him with a ruthless face.
If Du Tan and the others were here, they would definitely be surprised, the situation was so bad, Guan Cheng even dared to leave fifty armor soldiers, and it seemed that they were still preparing to ride horses.
"Your Highness, you're all ready."
Guan Cheng nodded solemnly and said softly: "Send a signal, let's start." ”
The soldier took the order and left.
In the blink of an eye, an arrow shot straight into the sky in the Jin army camp, dragging a long tail of fire.
The sound of the arrow quickly attracted the attention of Du Tan and the others, and the hearts of the two of them tightened for no reason, this must be some kind of code.
Guan Cheng even has a backhand?
The two of them were shocked.
Du Tan hurriedly ordered the remaining 200 elites around him to be on alert, and at the same time urgently ordered the front army to break through the camp as soon as possible.
But there was no movement except for the sound of fighting, Du Tan's brows were furrowed, and he was a little puzzled, this battlefield is not very big, although it is night, it can be seen completely, and there can be no more ambushes in the camp.
Could it be that there are still strange soldiers outside the camp?
The speculation in Du Tan's heart is getting bolder and bolder, if this is the case, what about the people and horses he has arranged outside?
Except for the rest of the attacking rear battalion, will there be any surprises for the squads guarding the various directions?
As if to confirm his conjecture, there was a sudden noise from the normally orderly attack of the rear battalion.
"What's the situation? Spy fast! Du Tan shouted loudly, and the uneasiness in his heart began to stand out again.
The noise grew louder and louder, and cries for help were heard.
Du Tan looked nervous, there were more than 400 people and horses attacking the rear camp, what kind of back hand did Guan Cheng have that could make that army show signs of defeat.
As a battlefield veteran, Du Tan has already begun to hesitate whether to have hope for the more than 400 people.
When Du Tan was thinking, the front gate of the village made a creaking sound, and it slowly opened in the surprised eyes of Du Tan and Liu Dong.
For a moment, even the attacking Jin soldiers were a little stunned.
Guan Cheng took the lead, and the bronze long sword in his hand pointed forward, and it was majestic.
"Brothers, at this moment, I am alone with you! Kill~~~"
Fifty-one horses urged the war horses to shout out at the same time, and the murderous aura was awe-inspiring.
And the Jin soldiers, who had lost their minds for a short time, looked overjoyed when they came back to their senses, and the enemy commander was actually sent to the door, and he still rode out on horseback.
A Jin soldier company commander raised his long sword and shouted: "Brothers, seize the King of Jin and get promoted!" ”
For a moment, it was like a piece of carrion that woke up the vultures everywhere, and in Du Tan's puzzled eyes, Jin Bing began to go crazy!
