Chapter 35: Raid on Yingze
Wang Sheng's preparation was to make a time difference, first let Xu Mao lead the army to attack Surabaya Yishui, attract the princes to go together, and then take the opportunity to surprise Yingze.
After agreeing on the time with Xu Mao, Wang Sheng ordered people to gather 3,000 vine armor troops and 7,000 elites. Let these people have a full feed and rest.
In order to succeed in this surprise attack on Yingze, Wang Sheng was already preparing to use the Heavenly Mandate Artifact.
At the same time, Xu Mao also fed the army, and then recuperated, this time the army will definitely go through a hard battle, but fortunately, this army will follow him to win consecutive battles, break Chu, destroy Zheng, and be invincible. This is also the reason why he has the confidence to resist the coalition forces of the Confederacy and Zhou.
There are only more than 10,000 people in Surabaya and Yishui, and he is confident that he will defeat them.
Soon the time came in the evening, Wang Sheng directly ordered the army to carry three days' rations, and took advantage of the night to bypass the camp of the Qi coalition army and go north.
The 10,000-strong army moved very quickly, and after a thirty-mile detour, it headed north.
Wang Sheng's army marched very fast, and in order to allow the army to travel quickly at night, Wang Sheng used a human-level prop Divine Talisman.
The effect of the Divine Talisman is simple, it increases the speed of marching by 30% and reduces the physical consumption by 30%. With this magic talisman, Wang Sheng commanded the army to attack a hundred miles in one night, and it was not a problem to go into battle again.
That's why he did it himself, because only he was sure of success.
Wang Sheng used the Divine Talisman, and a strange force instantly merged into the army, and everyone in the entire army felt that their bodies were much lighter, and the heavy armor and weapons seemed to have become lighter.
The army moved forward quickly, although it was night, but because of the moonlight, it was not dark, and along the way, there were always groups of soldiers with torches to lead the way.
Huai attaches great importance to night warfare, and the elite soldiers have basically undergone field training. It is almost unique in this period.
Because Huai is rich, he has the money to train elite soldiers in night combat.
Just after Wang Sheng led the army away, Xu Mao also began to reorganize his army for battle. The place where the dam was built in Surabaya and Yishui was only thirty miles away from Xiapi City, and the time agreed between Xu Mao and Wang Sheng was dawn.
Xu Mao led a large army to attack, attracting the allied forces of the princes of Qi, delaying the time for him to rescue Yingze, and creating conditions for Wang Sheng to burn the grain and grass.
Xu Mao's army made food on the third watch, set off on the fifth watch, and the army rushed to Surabaya and Yishui at night. The places where the dams were built in Surabaya and Yishui have long been clearly investigated by the Huai army, and there are scouts to lead the way, so there is no need to worry about getting lost. Thirty miles was not a long journey, and the army marched quickly.
It only took an hour or so to rush to the bank of Surabaya and Yishui, where Hu Rui built the city at the beginning, Surabaya and Yishui are very close, and it is also because of this that when the embankment is dug, the water sources of the two rivers are added together to flood the next Pi.
Xu Mao saw the camp in the dark night, and did not rush to attack, but let the army rest. Then let the camp go first and find out the trap in front of the camp. When the sky was about to dawn and the soldiers on the night vigil were also the most difficult, they suddenly ordered an attack.
The first camp to run away from the rejection of the horse, the army immediately attacked, and the archers, who had long been prepared, immediately fired rockets. Thousands of rockets streaked across the sky and landed in the camp, setting the tent on fire in an instant.
The flames were everywhere, and the shouts of killing were endless. The soldiers on the night vigil did not have time to react before they were killed by the Huai army, and the army directly broke through the camp and began to set fire to all directions, causing chaos.
It was only a matter of moments, and the whole camp became chaotic. There were killing cries everywhere, and a large number of princes' coalition troops ran out of the camp tent without even having time to put on their armor, and then were easily killed by the Huai army.
One by one, tents were set on fire, and the light of the fire reflected in the sky, which was clearly visible more than a dozen miles away.
The two camps were attacked, the flames soared into the sky, and the sound of killing and fighting shook all over the world, and the coalition camp in the distance soon found out.
"Qi Hou, it's not good, the Huai army took advantage of the night to sneak attack the Surabaya Yishui Dam!" Qi Hou, who was resting in the tent, was woken up by Dr. Qing.
"Damn!" Qi Hou saw the flames in the distance, and his face was very ugly.
"How did Zhang Qi guard the dam?"
γ
Your Majesty, the water storage will be completed in a few days, and if it is destroyed by the Huai Kingdom, it will be a failure!"
"Where is Wang Qing?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Wang Chengfu stepped forward and knelt down on one knee.
"Lead your troops to the rescue immediately!" The Marquis of Qi immediately ordered Wang Chengfu to lead a large army to the battle: "Remember to keep the dam as much as possible!"
"Whoa!" Wang Chengfu immediately led the army to the bank of the Yishui River in Surabaya.
The army marched quickly and rushed all the way over.
The fighting on the banks of the Yishui River in Surabaya continued, Xu Mao did not put all his troops into it, but just let people set fire to create chaos, and the archers took turns to rain arrows to cover, so that the princes and the coalition troops trampled on each other because of panic. This is to conserve physical strength, in order to deal with reinforcements.
At the same time, dozens of miles away. Near Yingze, Wang Sheng commanded the army, and after a hundred miles around in one night, he came to the vicinity of Yingze.
The army did not attack immediately when they came here, partly to regain their strength, and partly to wait for Surabaya Yishui to attack.
After calculating the time, Wang Sheng took out a prop card again. This time, he chose a ground-level item, Divine Soldier Descending from the Sky.
I saw a flash of inspiration, the props disappeared, and in the tent, fifty strong men with strong bodies and armor appeared. These strong men were all seven feet tall, with big shoulders and round waists, and with the armor they were wearing, they looked like a bear.
Each of these warriors has a combat power of 95, which is almost invincible in the world, plus the armor and weapons on their bodies, the battlefield is almost a killing machine, and what is even more surprising is that these people are not afraid of life and death, unless they are fatally wounded, they will not die at all.
The only downside is that these warriors are not permanent, and their duration is eight hours, which is less than a day.
Although the time is short, but in eight hours, these fifty fierce generals are enough to hammer an army to the ground.
Wang Sheng led fifty warriors directly to the front of the battle, and then said to the Yingze camp not far away: "Attack Yingze, Huai Kingdom for ten thousand years!"
"Break through Yingze, Huaiguo for ten thousand years!"
The morale of the army was Wang Sheng, and Wang Sheng launched an attack under the escort of the guards.
The mist of the morning light had just dispersed, and the soldiers of Yingze's battalion were preparing to eat, when suddenly a killing cry sounded, followed by the sound of rumbling chariots, and they saw a warrior with a big waist and a round waist waving their hands to sweep away the horse.
Fifty fierce generals were like fifty wild beasts, tearing the camp apart in an instant, everywhere they passed, there were stumps and broken arms everywhere, corpses were everywhere, and the army's attack was unexpectedly smooth!
"Beacon Smoke, hurry up Beacon Smoke!" In Yingze's camp, several generals shouted loudly. The soldiers guarding the beacon immediately lit the beacon.
LΓΌ Hong summoned the guards, ordered someone to erect the big sword, and then sent a herald to organize the army. At the same time, he ordered people to shout loudly and make people line up.
Lu Hong's way of dealing with it could not be said to be incorrect, under the chorus of the guards, the originally chaotic battalion actually had some order, and a large number of soldiers began to gather around him, and soon thousands of people gathered around him.
At the same time, under Lu Hong's loud shouts, more and more soldiers began to form a military formation on their own. If he ran into the armies of other vassal states, this approach was likely to save the entire army, but unfortunately he ran into the Huai army led by Wang Sheng.
When he saw that some soldiers were gathered in one place, he immediately ordered people to rush forward and crush the soldiers. Fifty fierce men from the sky attacked like bamboos, and there was no enemy at all in the place they passed. The halberds were swirled, and the soldiers were broken in two even after they were armed.
Colorful internal organs were scattered all over the place, chariots galloped, invincible, and everywhere they passed, corpses were strewn all over the field, a large number of soldiers were killed, and the battle formation that had just been formed was directly dispersed. The Huai army continued to attack, and set fire to the camp, and the grain and grass hoarded in the camp were ignited.
At the same time, the beacon smoke rose up, and soon the battalion of the princes' coalition army dozens of miles away also saw the beacon smoke warning.
"Your Majesty, when the smoke of Ying Ze is ignited, it must be Huai Guo who sent troops to sneak attack, this
The land is related to the safety of our coalition forces, and I ask you to send troops to rescue!" The secretary who found the beacon smoke hurriedly came to report.
"What?" Qi Hou's face changed suddenly.
"Lu Hou, you immediately take someone to rescue Yingze!" Qi Hou hurriedly ordered. Lu Hou also knew that the situation was critical, and immediately led people to the rescue.
It's just that at this time, the strength of the army is already a little stretched, except for 100,000 people, 50,000 and Xu Mao are facing off, and in order to maintain the advantage of troops against Xiapi, only 30,000 people can be sent to support.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid that we have all fallen for the plan of the Huai Kingdom!" Guan Zhong beside him said with an ugly face.
"Zhong Qing means that Yingze?" Qi Hou also reacted at this time.
"The two scouts caught the day before yesterday must be the dead of Huaiguo!" Guan Zhong said.
"Huai Guo should not have discovered the place where our army was storing grain at all, so he used this method of death to make me mistakenly think that they already knew where to store grain. Then let's send a large army to defend, or shift. And they will be able to follow the reinforcements to the place where our army is stockpiled!"
"It's careless!" Qi Hou's face was not good-looking.
"It's not the fault of the king, the person who uses this strategy has a very terrifying understanding of people's hearts! Even if you try again, you will have to hit the trick!"
"Bang!" Qi Hou slapped the case table hard.
"Huai Guo should be damned!"
"Your Majesty, for the sake of today, please make plans early!" Guan Zhong said.
"Zhong Xiang means to store grain..." Seeing Guan Zhong's solemn expression and nodded, Qi Hou's face became even more ugly.
......
Yingze.
Lu Hong is still constantly gathering the defeated army and forming an army formation. The fire broke out in the camp, and Wang Sheng commanded fifty divine soldiers to continuously break through the battle formation, and then disperse those routs.
The Tengjia army and the elite of the Huai State followed behind and killed and drove the defeated soldiers in the large camp. At this time, Wang Sheng also discovered Lu Hong, who was gathering the defeated army in the camp to reorganize the battle formation.
The big su behind Lu Hong has been erected high, although the princes' coalition army has been killed and defeated in large numbers, but it has not been defeated, and one of the important reasons for this is that the big jun has always been.
Seeing that thousands of people had gathered here, they formed a battle formation and wanted to resist stubbornly. Wang Sheng sneered, and then directly ordered the divine soldiers to attack.
The army was spearheaded by fifty divine soldiers, followed by the Tengjia Army and the elite of the Huai Kingdom, and the army charged. Fifty divine soldiers were like gods descending from the heavens, the unusually strong general formation crashed away, the halberd swept, the copper hammer hit, the big shield of the princes' alliance was directly hammered into pieces, and the soldiers behind the big shield broke their arms, and the blood in their mouths hit wildly, and they flew out directly.
Immediately afterwards, the halberd swept away, interrupting all the Changge of the princes' coalition army, and then the whole person rushed up directly, blood spilled, flesh and blood flew sideways, and the complete military formation was directly dented for a while. It was just a matter of moments, and the military formation that Lu Hong had high hopes for was easily broken.
Fifty divine soldiers are like a sharp knife, invincible. In an instant, the general formation was torn apart, and the vine armor army swarmed up, completely tearing open the gap in this military formation, and the elite of the Huai State who followed it rushed up, and this military formation immediately fell into the quagmire.
The Huai soldiers were on a rampage, and the coalition soldiers did not have the slightest power to fight back, and under the blows of fifty divine soldiers, they were like cutting wheat, and they kept falling.
The Huai army continued to attack, and the fifty divine soldiers rushed forward like savage beasts. Seeing this situation, Lu Hong, who was under the command of the Chinese army, looked extremely ugly. Hurriedly mobilized archers to shoot at those divine soldiers, and did not care about the alliance of princes who were fighting with them.
A large rain of arrows fell, covering the divine soldiers. Lu Hong could already imagine these people being shot like hedgehogs, but in the next second, something terrifying happened to him. I saw those divine halberds waving, dialing left and right, and actually picked most of the arrows away, and the rest of the arrows fell on their armor.
This wave of arrow rain not only killed a divine soldier, but the princes and coalition troops around the divine soldier were killed and wounded.
The surroundings of those divine soldiers were empty in an instant, and the next second, I saw these divine soldiers rushing forward quickly.
whereas
Seeing such an astonishing scene, the morale of the Huaiguo army was great, and a super-strong teammate boosted the morale of the soldiers beyond imagination. In the same way, how much they boost their own morale, how fiercely they suppress the morale of the enemy.
When the princes' coalition saw that the rain of arrows in the sky was easily blocked by these people, their morale dropped directly to the freezing point.
The coalition of princes who were still struggling to resist fled one after another, and seeing this situation, Lu Hong's face was ugly. Fifty divine soldiers rushed towards him quickly, and the surrounding guards saw those divine soldiers who were like fierce beasts rushing towards him, and their faces changed drastically, and they wanted to flee when they set up Lu Hong.
It's a pity that it's too late, the nearest divine soldier roared angrily, waved his hand and threw the halberd in his hand, the sharp halberd blade of the halberd tore through the air, and with a scream, he instantly crossed a distance of dozens of meters, and stabbed Lu Hong fiercely, the guard next to him changed his face greatly, and hurriedly stepped forward to block the halberd.
However, the halberd instantly pierced its body along with the armor, and continued to penetrate Lu Hong's body, piercing it into a string and sinking into the ground.
Lu Hong's body struggled slightly, and then there was no longer any life. Immediately afterwards, the divine soldier rushed forward and directly cut down the thigh-thick Daxu with an axe.
