Chapter 360: Plans and Night Attacks

"Let's go!" the complacent Yu Ren announced his departure at the point of the platform.

Compared with his ugly son, Yu Ren's eyes are not so convex, the bags under his eyes are slightly smaller, and his chin is slightly longer, but his height is still a hard wound in the Yu family, as the tallest man in the family, he is only 1.65 meters.

In this attack on Zhushan City, Kamikaze City formed an army of 50,000 people, assembled in place at the junction of the two cities two days ago, and waited for the official declaration of war to enter the territory of Zhushan City.

Yu Ren personally served as the commander of the army, which was the first battle of the Yu family to conquer the affiliated nobles, and the Yu family has paid for it for several generations, and Kamikaze City has invested a lot of manpower and material resources.

The army of 50,000 people was not divided into three armies, but was held together and pressed directly towards Zhushan City, and all the baggage followed the army, and the marching speed of the army was very slow.

Kamikaze City is in the west of Zhushan City, the personnel of the two sides are relatively close, and people who are familiar with the environment of the two places abound, Yu Ren led the army to advance in a straight line to Zhushan City, and there was no intention of concealing it at all, of course, he couldn't hide it if he wanted to.

The scouts of Zhushan City were everywhere, and the situation of the Kamikaze City army was soon reported to Bai Cen.

"It seems that Yu Ren has repeatedly deduced, taking into account all the possible reactions we may make, marching in the safest way, and forcing us to collide with him, and not even let me make a small profit. Bai Cen is still hidden in the City Lord's Mansion, and as soon as he has time, he will find Ding Kui to deduce this offensive and defensive battle.

"If he doesn't send troops to harass him, he has enough time to camp outside the city, can we just watch it like this?" Ding Kui had a rare opportunity to accumulate actual combat experience, so he gave up his cultivation time and followed Bai Cen closely to pay attention to the battle situation.

"Someone, send an order to Bai Yun, lead half of the cavalry to approach the enemy, see their strength composition, and by the way, cover the special detachment to infiltrate the territory of Kamikaze City. Patzen ordered.

"Aren't you going to let the cavalry break into the territory of Kamikaze City?" Ding Kui was puzzled.

"What strength we have, the other side can guess, they came nearly 50,000 men on the first day, and they must still have men and horses to deal with our cavalry. Bai Cen smiled slightly.

Except for Zhushan Mountain, the rest of the terrain in Zhushan City is relatively flat, that is, it is a little hilly near the border of Kamikaze City, and the army of Kamikaze City crossed that hilly area not long after they set off.

50,000 people were crowded together on the march, and the distance between one end and the other was nearly ten kilometers, and Yu Ren's handsome flag was in the middle of the ranks, so that he could give orders to the troops in time.

"Report, Lord of the City, a large number of cavalry have been found in the southeast, and they are driving away our scouts. A scout came from the front of the group.

"Hehe, is it really that little girl in Zhushan City who is in charge now? Use cavalry to attack my marching team, earn if you have a bargain, and run away if you don't have a bargain, this command is decent. Yu Ren grinned, the corners of his mouth almost reaching his ears.

Mr. Cheng, who accompanied Yu Ming to Zhushan City that day to give an ultimatum, was by Yu Ren's side at the moment, and he said: "Count Yu, it is better to lure their cavalry into the military formation and destroy their mobile forces in one fell swoop." ”

"Well, no, then our elite will be damaged, so it's better to be steady. Yu Ren hesitated, but still shook his head, "Order the cavalry division to assemble and force the enemy to retreat, and the scout will move to other directions and release twenty miles." ”

Yu Ren's Chinese army suddenly sounded the trumpet, the flag waved wildly, and the cavalry cruising on both sides of the marching team spurred their horses one after another, and rushed to the southeast of the team at high speed.

There are few people in the Northern Empire who can't ride horses, knowing that there will be a large number of cavalry in Zhushan City, and Kamikaze City has also cobbled together a cavalry force of 10,000 people.

The cavalry of the two cities slowly approached, and when they were about ten miles apart, the Zhushan City troops, which were obviously less manned, stopped advancing and slowly circled towards the flank and rear of the Kamikaze City army. But the cavalry of Kamikaze City opened up the formation and pressed towards the opponent in a semi-encirclement form.

The cavalry of Kamikaze only had to entangle the opponent, and their large forces were behind them, ready to reinforce and annihilate the opponent who had lost their speed.

Bai Yun, who was hiding in the cavalry ranks, saw that there was no chance to take advantage of it, so he had to give the order to leave the battlefield quickly.

"I want Zhushan City to give in, let the Bai family obey my orders, and it won't do me any good to kill and injure them in large numbers, just drag them down. Knowing that the enemy army was retreating, Yu Ren explained to Mr. Cheng.

"Earl Yu is thoughtful, and he will become a strong arm of His Highness in the future. Mr. Cheng said with a smile.

Except for this cavalry force that was forced back, there were no other troops to harass, and Yu Ren led his army to the outskirts of Zhushan City safely, and camped about ten miles from the west gate.

"About 10,000 cavalry? That's their troops guarding the grain road. Bai Cen asserted, "The cavalry consumption is too large, and if there are more of them, they will need to send more people to protect the grain route, and Yu Ren will fight for a long time." ”

"Then find a way to get them to take the initiative to attack and force them to attack the city. Ding Kui pinched his chin and said.

"From departure to camping, Yu Ren behaved very steadily, and it was not easy to force him to attack the city. "It was the first time that Bai Czen had fought against such a familiar opponent, and he couldn't find a flaw in his opponent in a short period of time.

"Give him a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, an opportunity worth his risk. "Ding Kui doesn't have much actual combat experience, and there are a lot of battle examples in his mind, and they didn't happen in this space.

"Opportunity?" Patzen's eyes flickered, "what do you mean?"

"Surrender and sacrifice the city, without you and without Bai Yun, the general who defends the city with average personal strength takes the initiative to surrender, will Yu Ren, who has the upper hand in absolute strength, give it a fight?" Ding Kui thought of it was not new, there are basically examples of surrender in all countries, but few people use it in the aristocratic war.

"The old city lord is newly mourned, the new city lord is leading the troops outside, someone is willing to automatically sacrifice the city, and the high-end combat power, elite and military strength are all superior, no matter whether it is a real or false surrender, I will not let go of this opportunity. Bai Cen immediately deduced it, and with the military information that Yu Ren mastered, he was ten percent sure of capturing Zhushan City.

Fraud basically occurs when the strength is far inferior to the opponent, and only by desperately fighting to kill the enemy's coach can it succeed, and the risk itself is very high.

"This is also the second factor that borrows from the lord of Bai City, that is, to take the initiative and create opportunities for the enemy, and ambitious people will not miss the opportunity to grasp more than seventy percent. Ding Kui has actually deduced it many times in his heart.

In Ding Kui's deduction, the biggest variable is that the enemy also hides the master in the formation, and in the end, he will not have the advantage when he is hard, and he will be killed if he is not careful. But Yu's tenacious and steady style dispelled Ding Kui's concerns, and those who held trump cards in their hands often showed many flaws and would not be so cautious.

"Come, come, come, tonight we will deduce in detail how to deceive. "Patzen has thought of several sets of tactics, and he is also a steady man, trying to plan in as much detail as possible.

As night fell, the Kamikaze army camp was brightly lit, and the camp was surrounded by sentry posts, and from time to time patrolling soldiers walked around the camp.

"Count Yu, don't you want the enemy to come and steal the camp tonight? "Mr. Cheng was accompanying Yu Ren to play chess in the big tent of the Chinese army, and the strong man named Commander Zang was watching.

"If Bai Cen is here, I don't dare to say that if Bai Yun is in charge of the overall situation in the city, we will definitely come to try it with our investigation of her in the past few years. Yu Ren casually threw a piece on the chessboard.

Commander Zang excitedly pointed to the chessboard and said, "Hehe, Earl Yu, you made a mistake, and a rough person like Lian can see it." ”

"Zang Lian, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, Earl Yu, this is a solid foundation, let me attack first, it's wrong." Mr. Cheng said, twisting his beard.

Zhushan is hundreds of meters away from the north gate, and the top of the mountain can observe the situation within a radius of more than ten miles. Five hundred soldiers from Zhushan City are stationed here to guard this natural lookout, and if it is attacked by enemy troops, the defenders in the city can support it at any time.

A scout took a closer look at the kamikaze camp with a telescope, then drew a sketch on a blank piece of paper, rolled it up and stuffed it into a small bamboo pipe, and blew the eagle's whistle vigorously. A moment later, a black harrier eagle landed silently on his arm, he tied a small bamboo pipe to the eagle's leg, and blew the eagle whistle a few more times.

The harrier eagle flapped its wings and quickly disappeared into the dark night sky.

Midnight passed, the patrol soldiers had changed the third group, and the camp of Kamikaze City was still calm. The guards in front of the big tent of the Chinese army were yawning with their mouths wide open, and their commander was still in the tent without resting.

"Could it be that I miscalculated, or maybe Bai Yun is not in charge of the overall situation in the city?" Yu Ren frowned.

At this moment, drums and trumpets suddenly sounded outside the camp, and the braziers outside the camp were extinguished by archers one after another, and a large number of black shadows were crawling forward.

The young warrior of the tribe, who was only thirteen years old, lied about his age to join Bai Yun's cavalry unit. Now he sits on horseback and blows a trumpet, less than five hundred meters from the kamikaze military camp, while his older brother Langnu keeps shooting arrows at the braziers and torches outside the barracks.

Outside the rear camp, the guard post in Kamikaze was attacked and killed by the Langbak brothers' companions, but the cavalry detachment of 200 men did not rush into the barracks.

An officer rushed out of the tent and listened attentively, "Hmph, carving insect skills." The archers obeyed the order, mounted the rocket, and the target was outside the camp, and the full string was thrown. ”

A large number of archers came out of the tents of the rear battalion, and they threw rockets outside the camp according to the command of the officers, regardless of the formation.

Thousands of rockets were launched into the air one after another, flying more than 200 meters before landing, although they were not lined up to launch neatly, but after several rounds of rockets, the range of more than 200 meters outside the rear camp was all illuminated.

Sure enough, there were only a few kittens. The fifth largest parapet of infantry, let me out of the camp to arrest people. "The officer seems to be at the level of a division commander, and can command two brigades of different arms.

"It's coming!" Yu Ren of the military tent raised his eyebrows and walked out of the big tent.

Before he could figure out the situation in the rear camp, the sentry in the right battalion shouted: "Enemy attack!" He saw hundreds of fires approaching at high speed from a distance.

"How dare such a person rush to the camp?" Zang Lian also came to the outside of the tent, leaving only Mr. Cheng alone in the tent of the Chinese army.

Yu Ren stepped on the ground a few times and said, "No, the vibration is coming from the direction of the left camp. ”
