Sneak attack
The cold on the plateau was something that the warriors of the Dragoon had never felt.
Although they were almost all born in the north, the temperature in winter rarely drops below minus 10 degrees Celsius because the world climate is currently warm.
However, the maximum temperature of the day is also minus 10 degrees Celsius.
At night, the temperature can drop to minus twenty or thirty degrees.
Such a temperature made the down jackets on the soldiers suddenly not fragrant.
This thing doesn't keep warm very well in such extremely cold conditions.
Especially at night, when the fighters have stopped exercising, they will soon feel chills all over their bodies.
Su Lie soon realized the problem.
Therefore, after the fighters had rested for two days, it was immediately decided to launch a sneak attack on the enemy on the night of the third day.
They have to grab a warm dress for themselves to wear, otherwise there is a high risk of unexpected attrition.
At night, Su Lie led the dragoons out of the mountain nest quietly.
They wrapped all four hooves of their horses in thick sheepskins.
In this way, when the war horse walks around, there is basically no sound.
A great help for their raids.
Su Lie led a team of two hundred people to sneak directly to a distance of less than two miles from the enemy army, observing the situation with a telescope.
They were responsible for sneaking into Tuyuhun's military camp to carry out the assassination.
It was getting late, but there were still many enemies warming themselves around the campfire.
These people are all night sentry.
Under normal circumstances, they were supposed to patrol around the camp.
However, due to the cold weather and the fact that there were few enemies in Tuyuhun territory, their vigilance was lowered considerably.
This provided an opportunity for Su Lie and others.
After observing for a while, Su Lie immediately led people to sneak around to the rear of the enemy camp.
There are a few campfires as well, but there are many dark corners where the fire doesn't shine.
Su Lie scattered the group, and slipped into these dark corners.
Then came the time of brutal slaughter.
Scattered in groups of five, they sneaked into the yurts and killed the sleeping enemies one by one.
During this time, they also tried to avoid a few yurts that were close to the fire.
These yurts were built to be larger, and they were supposed to be inhabited by the high-ranking generals of the enemy army.
The enemy's protection is obviously more important, so bonfires are lit in front and behind the yurts.
At first, the assassination went very smoothly, and the enemies in the yurts were quickly cleared.
However, due to the large number of enemies and the scattered distribution of yurts, problems finally arose halfway through.
When Xue Li's group was about to enter a yurt, one of the people inside just wanted to get up.
Xue Li, who was the leader, directly took a look at him.
The man was startled by Xue Li who suddenly appeared, and asked loudly, "Who is here?" ”
His shout instantly woke the rest of the room.
Seeing this situation, Xue Li hurriedly led people to rush to those people's side quickly.
But by this time it was already a little late.
Although they quickly killed a dozen of the enemies inside, the resistance and shouts of these people before they died still disturbed the yurts next to them and the sentry posts around the campfires outside.
The whole camp was in chaos in an instant.
As soon as Su Lie saw this situation, he knew that they could only fight hard next.
So he immediately took out a signal flare that the Tang Army had just equipped and quickly launched it.
Then, without hesitation, he led people to rush to the piles of bonfires.
They use their skills to quickly take out the enemies next to the campfire.
Then they started to light the yurts here and there with burning firewood.
Unfortunately, their numbers were too small, and in a short period of time they only lit a few places before they soon saw a large number of enemies surrounding them.
Su Lie led his men to rush to the enemy's camp gate first, preparing to create an opportunity for his follow-up comrades to enter quickly.
At this time, the enemy army was in chaos.
Some of them were chasing after Su Lie and the others, and some were busy fighting fires.
The whole camp was in an uproar, with screams, angry shouts and cries from those trapped in the yurts by the fire.
These noises severely affect their hearing.
So much so that when the rest of the Dragoons had already rushed to the camp, they realized through the shaking of the earth that there was another wave of enemies.
By this time, it was too late for them to react.
The warriors of the Dragoons rushed directly into the camp and, with a wave of their sabers, rushed towards the enemy.
The impact of the cavalry was on full display in front of these enemy forces, who were still in disarray.
The warriors of the Dragoons took the lives of thousands of enemies with a single sprint.
Murong Qing, who was desperately gathering his generals, suddenly turned blue after seeing the cavalry of the Dragoon Army.
He hurriedly shouted to his soldiers to form a formation, trying to stop the charge of the dragoons.
Yet he ignores a terrible truth.
That is, because the situation happened so suddenly, many of the fighters of the Tuyuhun army left the yurt in a hurry.
Many of them didn't even have time to bring their own weapons.
At this time, in the panic, these people are simply unable to put up effective resistance.
Therefore, no matter how Murong Qing shouted, there were not many people who could obey his orders.
Most of the soldiers chose to run and dodge in a panic when facing the dragoons.
They simply didn't have the courage to confront the dragoons.
Murong Qing's shouts not only failed to bring a large number of warriors together, but instead attracted the attention of the dragoons.
So a team of more than 100 people immediately separated from the team and rushed in the direction where Murong Qing was.
As soon as Murong Qing wanted to rush up with people to resist, he was immediately stopped by Murong Yunhai.
Murong Yunhai said anxiously to Murong Qing: "Right now, our side is already in such chaos, where is there a chance to fight back?" You and I should quickly evacuate with someone. ”
Murong Qing only reacted after hearing his words, so he hurriedly ran towards the stable with his personal guards.
At this time, the entire camp was already completely chaotic, and if he didn't run away, he was afraid that he would be wiped out by the Tang army.
Tuyuhun's warriors were not stupid, some of them were even faster than Murong Qing.
So it didn't take long for the Tuyuhun army that was able to run away to all mount war horses and flee frantically.
And those who have already been surrounded by the dragoons can only be killed one by one in despair.
The number of dragoons was too small for them to leave manpower to guard over the large number of captives.
Therefore, if they can't run away as their enemy, then there is only one dead end.
