Chapter 615: Jungle Ambush (I)

At the curtain of the night, drums rumbled outside the city of Yizhou, and dozens of siege chariots were slowly marching towards the city pass in the pre-battle position. The chariot is the siege weapon of the vanguard army headquarters tonight, the only difference is that the vanguard army camp did not ignite an open fire tonight, and it seems that it intends to conceal the deployment of the army from the Yizhou side......

On top of the Yizhou City Pass, Qin Yu hurriedly arrived from the General's Mansion and commanded the city in person. Looking at the chariot in the dark from a distance and raising the horn of attack, although he didn't know what the enemy wanted to do, Qin Yu didn't dare to take it lightly, and ordered the defenders of each pass to strengthen their vigilance at the same time, he also maintained twelve points of vigilance.

"General, it seems that the enemy army is trying to attack the city with chariots-" The observing soldier reported to Qin Yu without stopping.

Qin Yu stared at it and said in a firm tone: "Order the defenders from all walks of life in the city to keep the pillars and fortresses! Rocket crossbowmen guard all passes, and once the enemy army has a strong attack, they will strive to stop it! In addition, the city gate orders the troops to strictly guard the gate, if the enemy chariot attacks, the rocket men along the building ignite the chariot, and the city gate guards can't let the chariot crash open the gate!"

"Yes—" When the soldier received the order, he immediately turned around and gave orders to the defenders of the city. Qin Yu's military order is not only decisive, but also its momentum is like a high-spirited trumpet, inspiring the morale of the army, which is also the key to Qin Yu's first arrival on the battlefield, but can unite the army's heart......

The chariots of the vanguard army are still approaching, and it seems that they have reached the range of long-range crossbows, and the soldiers under control immediately distribute their actions, and the bow and crossbow devices in the upper rows of the chariots are aimed at the target of the city tower...... "put-" With the military order of the leader of the vanguard army in the dark night, dozens of chariots launched an attack at the same time, and the high-headed arrow crossbow device was activated. Under the dark night, tens of thousands of arrows and crossbows flew towards the Yizhou City Tower.

In the dark night, there was a chilling dense "whoosh" sound, and the rain of arrows fell like a torrential rain. Since it's at night. There were no rockets that flew out, and it was difficult for the soldiers defending the city to see clearly. Many of the guards in the front row heard the sound of the arrow in their ears, but it was too late, and they could finally see the moment when the arrow reached in front of them, and in the blink of an eye, they fell to the ground with an arrow, or even died through their hearts......

"Ahh......h......h

"Ahh Blocking the rain of arrows that flew in, he stood alone at the front of the defenders, shouting vigorously, "Don't mess up, the defenders from all walks of life use shields to resist arrows, wait until the enemy chariots enter the range of fire, and counterattack with rockets!"

Qin Yu's military order was immediately issued, and the soldiers' shields on the city tower rose in groups, forming an iron wall. Sure enough, it effectively blocked the arrows and crossbows that flew out of the chariot. In fact, in such a situation, the vanguard army only needed rockets to continue to suppress at long range, but they did not seem to do so; The chariot units of the vanguard then continued forward, as if intending to take the risk of storming the gates.

And behind the battlebody, there are also uncountable elite cavalry units of the vanguard army under the shady scenes. Once the Yizhou city gate was breached, the vanguard troops would pour into the city like a tidal wave, and when they entered the city, they would be street battles in which the Mengyuan soldiers were not good. Qin Yu knew that when it was crucial to keep watch tonight, there must not be a trace of negligence......

By the gap in the shield array. Qin Yu saw that the chariot was approaching the city gate and was already within the range of the rocket. Qin Yu stood up from the shield array, braved the arrow array and shouted: "Rocket bows and crossbows on the left and right of the city gate, target enemy siege chariots-"

This time it was the turn of the Mengyuan defenders of Yizhou to rain down from all over the gap between the shield arrays......

Qin Yu's strategy had been successful by destroying all the enemy's chariots before attacking the city gate; on the contrary, the vanguard army under the city of Yizhou saw that the chariots were about to be destroyed, and even if the remaining cavalry troops were excellent, it would be difficult for them to raise troops to attack the city...... "Withdraw" Sure enough, the lieutenant general of the vanguard army gave an order and ordered the troops attacking the city tonight to retreat to the jungle position.

Qin Yu saw that the siege stopped, and half of his heart fell. But he didn't completely relax his vigilance, and Qin Yu's eyes moved slightly, as if he was watching the retreat of the vanguard army, and he had a plan......

"General Luo is here—" A soldier's announcement, while Qin Yu was hesitating and thinking, the main general Luo Mu only rushed to the top of the city tower at this time. Now that the vanguard army had retreated, the remains of the burning chariots were left in the sky below the city, and a brief and thrilling night raid ended hastily. Although there was a false alarm, the rocket garrison damaged all the chariots of the vanguard army, and to be honest, Qin Yu had the advantage in this battle......

"General Luo-" Qin Yu saw Luo Mu coming, and respectfully asked. Although there was a little unhappiness when he was in the General's Mansion, the enemy must unite with the outside world at present, and Qin Yu still respectfully and earnestly waited for the order of the main general.

"General Qin, I heard that the enemy's siege chariots were attacking tonight, General Qin defended it with an arrow and shield array, tried his best to keep the city gate unbroken, and repelled the enemy's main force, greatly damaging the morale of the enemy army, General Qin can be said to have made a great contribution——" Luo Mu seemed to be polite at this time, and praised Qin Yu Dao.

However, Qin Yu did not have a smile on his face, and now that the war was not long over, Qin Yu did not dare to take it lightly, and then asked Luo Mu to say: "Now is not the time to be happy, now that the enemy's chariots are damaged and their morale is greatly damaged, it is the time to flee to the jungle position...... General, the last general is willing to lead 2,000 elite cavalry in the city to pursue the enemy army along the jungle position!"

"Two thousand?" Luo Mu listened, and said a little incredulously, "Two thousand is too little, there are tens of thousands of enemy troops, and it is also the main formation of the enemy army, not to mention setting up an ambush and being attacked, even if it is a frontal battle on the plains, it will not have a chance to win......"

"Two thousand is enough-" However, Qin Yu showed a very confident expression, but Qin Yu paused slightly, and then said to Luo Mu, "But General Luo, can you forgive General Luo for the next plan and use to command General Luo's main army?"

Luo Mu smiled and said: "Haha, General Qin is the general of our army to suppress the enemy, Wen Taowu is a hundred enemies, if General Qin has a good plan, he can be honest——"

"Then thank General Luo......" Qin Yu replied, and then asked for advice, "General." The enemy is now retreating back to the jungle position, that is, in a panic. However, General Luo was defeated in the jungle pursuit and ambush before, and they may repeat their old tricks this time. Wait in front of the jungle for General Luo to be hit again...... But this time was different, the last general personally led two thousand elite horsemen to bait and trapped, went deep into the jungle and pursued the jungle with fire. As soon as the jungle burns, the enemy army will surround the last general head-on with the main army. At the end of the day, he will hold the enemy army for two hours with the oath of his life, and then General Luo will lead the main army in the city to gallop to arrive, and we will be able to win a great victory by attacking inside and out, and counter-encircling the enemy's main force!"

When Luo Mu heard this, he said awe-inspiringly: "Okay." General Qin's plan was really brilliant - according to General Qin's words, while the enemy army had not yet returned to the camp, he led 2,000 elite cavalry to pursue the victory...... When the jungle is ignited, it will be the order to send troops, and after two hours, the general will definitely lead the main force of the army to come, and the inside and outside will join forces to destroy the enemy army!"

"The last general obeys the order-" General Qin said impassionedly, and then immediately drove down the city tower without stopping. Gather your troops and go......

"Squeak - bang" The gate of Yizhou was opened, but it was not the response of the enemy attacking the city, but the clarion call of the defenders to pursue - Qin Yu was in high spirits and gathered two thousand elite cavalry in the city at the fastest speed. He is the former head of the army. The "silver jade unicorn" under the crotch hissed, holding a silver spear and an armored bow, and the military order was issued. Thousands of iron horsemen marched forward.

The flames of the wreckage of the chariot under the city had not yet burned out, and the iron-hoofed war horses pursued from the city. Qin Yu's eyes looked at death as if he were at home. One shot angrily is to break the power of the army. And in front of the jungle formation, the sound of the retreating war horses' hooves of the vanguard army has not yet subsided. "Driving-" Qin Yu raised the reins and rushed in, the "Qilin" accelerated forward, and the city tower reached the jungle in front of the battle, and under Qin Yuwei's ride, it seemed to leap in......

And at this moment, Luo Mu, who was watching Qin Yu's pursuit of the back from the top of the city tower, showed a strange smile at the corner of his mouth.

"The plan succeeded, didn't it?" At the same moment, from the steps down the edge of the castle tower, a familiar sly laugh came.

"Prince, in such a war situation, why do you want to come?" Luo Mu changed his previous tone, and turned back in a flattering tone to answer - the person who came was Wang Xin, the son of Taishou Wang Xuan.

Wang Xin smiled softly and said slyly: "Isn't it, whether the Qin family is alive or dead, now is the key...... General Luo's promise to let General Qin lead his troops to pursue the enemy army is half the battle, isn't it?"

"You are really cunning, use this method to 'justify' and destroy the Qin family......" Luo Mu replied with words in his words.

"Yes, this king is so cunning, he can make General Luo you be upright and upright, and eradicate the 'cunning' of hatred in your heart, hum ......" Wang Xin replied with a sly smile - the conspiracy is the beginning, it seems that behind this, Qin Yu will face an unprecedented calamity......

Jungle position in the dark night, vanguard camp......

"That's what it is...... Sister Jing, your plan?" In front of the camp, all units of the vanguard army were fully armed, and it seemed that there was a "big move" tonight, Xiao Tian had no combat mission, but his face seemed to be bad, and he asked Lu Jing who was about to go on the expedition with a drooping face.

"That's right, the siege chariot will be destroyed, deliberately slowing down the speed of the withdrawal of the army, and luring Qin Yu to lead the troops to pursue, this is all a strategy to lure the enemy......" Lu Jing was also ready to go on the expedition, and responded with a smile.

"I mean......" Xiao Tiancai got the news before the battle, and he continued to "ask" angrily, "The thirty-seven siege chariots that I worked so hard to build for the craftsmen, what did I say before, 'borrow me to lure the enemy', and the result ...... It was burned to the ground like this?" It turns out that this is the reason why Xiao Tian's "face is not good".

"Eh, what's this......" Lu Jing scratched her head a little embarrassed and said, "This strategy seems to be a bit negligent, I didn't consider the aftermath of the chariot, I didn't know that Qin Yu would be so ruthless, hehe...... It doesn't matter, it's not that the person is dead, and the car can be rebuilt if it's gone. It's a big deal that this battle is won, it's good to give Brother Xiao a great credit, don't be so unhappy......"

"Sister Jing, you're all ready, when will you leave?" On the side of the front camp, Murong Fei couldn't wait to ask for his life, the last time he lost to Qin Yu in front of the battle, this time he said that he wanted to save some face.

"Got it, I'll be here with the fool right away-" Lu Jing responded, and then turned to Xiao Tian and said, "That's it, Brother Xiao, you and Sister Su will stay in camp tonight and wait for our good news......" After saying that, Lu Jing immediately got on the horse and rode the horse away, for fear that Xiao Tian would mention more things on the side.

"Da - Da Da Da ......" waiting for the order of the infantry cavalry also acted with it, this time Qin Yu chased in the jungle, it seems that the vanguard army is going to fight with real swords and guns......

Xiao Tian stood at the door of the tent and did not return, the troops had been set off for a long time, and he seemed to be still on the "qitou" just now. In addition to Xiao Tian and Su Jia, there were also generals of the infantry camp such as Hu Yidi in the main camp waiting for orders, and almost all the elite cavalry in the army were dispatched, and they poured out of the nest overnight, and the camp was suddenly much cooler......

Su Jia saw Xiao Tian standing alone at the gate of the camp and knew what had just happened, so he walked up to Xiao Tian and asked with a smile: "Why are you putting on such a sad expression, and you are still 'making trouble' about the destruction of the chariot?"

Xiao Tian shook his head and said helplessly: "Jia'er, you don't know how much thought it took me to make those siege chariots...... Since taking Xuzhou and Huaibei and marching into the Northern Expedition, I have basically not slept well for a day - you don't know, Jingmei seems to be using me as a coolie, insisting that I complete the engineering drawings of the siege chariot in a short period of time, what military needs to use...... Just before setting off tonight, he put on a smiling face and said, 'Just borrow me and lure the enemy', and the result...... was burned completely by Qin Yu's fire, and my blood and sweat were burned in an instant......" When Xiao Tian said something like "borrow me", he also learned Lu Jingniang's tone.

When Su Jia heard this, she was about to laugh from ear to ear, and then said: "It turns out that this is the strategy that Jingmei said to lure the enemy out of the city again, and as a result, a fire will 'sacrifice' all your blood and sweat ...... Ah Tian."

"Do you think those chariots can be made so easily?" Xiao Tian still said unevenly, "Although I am familiar with the mechanics, I almost have a brain to make such a thing...... It's good that Sister Jing put on a smiling face in front of me, destroying my elaborate masterpiece so easily, and so completely......"

"Hahahaha......" Su Jia couldn't help it, and laughed out loud, "Look at Ah Tian, your current appearance, aren't you just like your master?"

"My master?" Xiao Tian asked.

"I mean the Demon Master......" Su Jia continued to laugh, "It turns out that when you were in Liusha Town, didn't you often say bad things about his 'masterpiece' behind the back of the Demon Master? Every time you say it, your master will be in trouble with you, now think about it, Ah Tian, isn't your temper the same as your master's? Hey, I really don't know if when you get old, will you look like ......this?" After speaking, Su Jia shook his head with a slight "mockery".

When Xiao Tian heard this, he first cast a "blame" look, but after thinking about it carefully, he really looked a bit like a demon master. As soon as he thought of the old appearance of the demon master, he limped, and he was about to beat himself with a wooden stick if he had nothing to do, Xiao Angel shook his head vigorously, gritted his teeth and said: "Don't, don't want to be like that old guy, absolutely not......"

"Hahahaha-" Su Jia looked at Xiao Tian's funny appearance, and couldn't help laughing, not afraid that the other soldiers in the camp would hear it. But to be honest, Su Jia hasn't laughed like this for a long time.

Jokes aside, tonight the main force went out to ambush Qin Yu, it is still unknown whether it will succeed or fail, Xiao Tian's heart is a little nervous. After regaining his composure, Xiao Tian looked at the complicated jungle in front of him, and couldn't help but whisper: "I don't know if the Tang Zhan brothers and Jing sisters are sure of this battle...... That Qin Yu can not only rub the good hands of our generals in terms of force, but also exchange his strategy for the main general who defends the city in times of crisis, and he can be calm, brave and resourceful in the face of our army, and it seems that he is a difficult opponent......"

"Yes, I'm afraid the two of us want to see it, that Qin clan's descendant's skills, staying in the camp with nothing to do, doesn't look like our character......" Su Jia also responded with a smile.

"What, Jia'er, don't you have anything else to do tonight?" Xiao Tian turned his head and asked.

"It's okay, the wounded soldiers in the rear camp are basically fine, I'll just leave it to a few soldiers under my command to take care of......" Su Jia's eyes lit up and said, "How about it, are you interested in going to the front of the battle to see the confrontation between our army and Qin Yu?"

"Of course there is interest, but is this really good?" Xiao Tian said with some unease.

"What's wrong, we're not going to fight in front of the battle...... Su Jia continued, "I have already studied the terrain in this area, saying that it is a jungle area, and there are still rocky mountain roads like canyons next to them...... We watched the enemy's situation on the mountain, although we couldn't see the specific battle situation, but the enemy's general Qin Yu's troops, we might be able to roughly understand a thing or two...... How about going and see tonight?"

"Just go, I really want to see how many guys who burned my 'blood and sweat' as ......much as possible" Xiao Tian also said in a high mood, obviously he and Su Jia would not obediently stand still in the camp tonight...... (To be continued.) )
