The Beijing army has indeed been corrupted for too long.
There are not many veterans who have fought in the war, and most of the new faces have almost never fought in the war.
Moreover, there are reasons for taking empty pay.
The team establishment may not even be full.
Just like this team of sentinels in front of me.
Although they are nominally five hundred people.
But the actual number of people was only over four hundred.
After they were stationed, they never thought that the defenders in the capital would dare to sneak attack them at this time.
They thought that they were here to guard and they would be on the same mission as usual.
Just for show.
Therefore, when they found out that Zhao Xiaole suddenly led people to charge into the camp.
I couldn't believe it at first.
The second time was to count the number of people on the other side.
The third time was spent laughing and joking with each other.
Isn't it funny that more than a thousand people dare to rush into the camp?
After they finished laughing, they thought about whether it was time to send a signal?
Yes, no matter what, this is their responsibility.
A notification must be given.
So, they began to rummage through the equipment to find the ringing arrow.
Because Xing Zhang's soldiers had just arrived here, they hadn't had time to set up camp yet, and everything was in a mess.
When Zhao Xiaole rushed far away, they hadn't found anything yet.
In the eyes of future generations of historians, this matter has also become an unsolved case.
That is, why didn't the sentry send a signal at that time?
Some people speculated that it was because Chang Kun's team was so perfect in sneak attacks.
As a result, they had no time to send a signal.
However, people who really understand war sneer at this.
Why?
Even if your comrade is next to you and is hacked to death by the enemy, you still have time to shoot a loud arrow.
And the reason why Xing Zhang's sentries didn't shoot any sounding arrows.
The biggest reason is the corruption problem of the Beijing army.
They no longer have the basic qualities that an army should have.
In addition to not finding the sounding arrow, the sentries also panicked when the Imperial Guards suddenly attacked.
They simply cannot form an effective defensive formation.
I have never considered how to deploy defensive tactics if the enemy launches a sudden attack?
If they had another chance, they would definitely use a fire to burn down the woods on the hillside.
If it weren't for this damn forest, how could they let the enemy sneak into such a close distance?
After the Yulin army met the Beijing army, they started a brutal massacre. Their soldiers were all good soldiers in the army.
Fighting these people is as easy as an adult fighting a child.
The Sentinels are no match at all.
They were forced by the Royal Forest Army all the way to the front of the cliff. At this time, they had no retreat.
Chang Kun has also climbed up from the bottom of the cliff with everyone.
The sentinels of the small universe who were supposed to break out in a desperate situation were instantly deprived of this opportunity.
They are now under attack from both sides.
At this moment, everyone lost their will to fight.
Many people were so frightened that they knelt down and surrendered.
But how could these imperial guards talk nonsense with them?
They are still rushing to strive for greater achievements. What's the use of taking you in alive to them?
Kill them without mercy.
Along with the screams and shouts of killing, the cliff quickly became quiet, leaving only the sound of brisk footsteps and the sound of blood dripping.
Occasionally there will be the sound of one or two blades clashing.
Apart from that, there is only the sound of wind.
The Imperial Guards massacred the enemy.
There was no joy on their faces.
Killing these losers is not a gratifying thing for them.
Instead, it feels more like humiliation.
The humiliation of not being taken seriously.
Therefore, they have more important things to do.
That is, to grab the credit.
Everyone turned their heads and looked towards Xing Zhang's camp.
At this moment, the place was still brightly lit, but it soon became chaotic again, because Zhao Xiaole and Jin Yiwei had already arrived.
…
Zhang Huai led a group of cavalrymen and jumped to the high slope to look towards Xing Zhang's camp.
I saw that the camp seemed to be endless.
Spreading for miles.
Can't see beyond.
In the camp, lights danced.
Looking from a distance, you can only see lights.
The light was like looking at the stars in the Milky Way.
The night sky at this moment is more like a mirror.
What is reflected is the endless human fireworks.
At this moment, a group of cavalry were rushing out towards the sea of stars. They were murderous and had an indomitable momentum.
As sharp as the white rainbow that will penetrate the sun.
However, they were not attacking the sun, but the sea of stars that was far larger than the sun. However, in front of that sea of stars, they still seemed too small after all.
Perhaps, their efforts will be in vain after all.
Zhang Huai and others stood on the high slope and couldn't help but sigh.
They couldn't help but cheer for the Jin Yiwei's unstoppable momentum.
But, so what?
It is difficult to escape the ending of complete defeat.
Compared with Xing Zhang's several-mile long camp, this number of people is still too small and too fragile.
Like a moth to a flame, or a mantis trying to catch a chariot.
Now, those imperial guards are getting closer and closer to the camp.
Everyone seemed to have imagined what was about to happen.
The sentries of the Beijing army discovered them in advance.
Then, the Beijing army's bows and arrows were immediately prepared, and they used the horse fence to fire arrows at Zhao Xiaole's men and horses.
Under the dense arrows, most of the Jinyiwei were killed or injured.
The remaining people successfully rushed into the camp, but were either tripped by the horse rope or stabbed to death by the spearmen.
Even though, this group of Jin Yiwei are highly skilled in martial arts.
Zhang Huai also believed that they could indeed have a certain impact on Xing Zhang's camp.
But in the end, it was just like a stone thrown into the sea.
Although it will create waves and movement.
But the sea will eventually return to calm.
How many hundred people can they kill?
five hundred?
Six hundred?
No matter how many people there are, facing the vast sea of Beijing troops, they are still just rocks.
There is no way to escape the fate of being killed.
These analyzes were all correct, but they overlooked one thing, that is, Xing Zhang's troops had just set up camp.
It can even be said that the camp has not yet been set up.
Even the fortifications are not perfect.
Now is also the time when the opponent is weak.
It can be said that it is the best time for the cavalry led by Zhao Xiaole to launch an attack at this time.
Finally, when Zhao Xiaole's cavalry almost arrived in front of the camp.
Zhang Huai and others finally realized something was wrong.
That is, why did Xing Zhang's military camp not respond?
"Where are the sentries? Where are Xing Zhang's sentries?"
"The enemy has already reached here, why didn't they warn us?"
"Where have all the archers and spearmen in the camp gone?"
Zhang Huai and the people behind him couldn't help but look stunned.
But the fact is right in front of us, that is, almost when Zhao Xiaole rushed to Xing Zhang's camp, the other party did not respond effectively.
Then came the tragic scene of horses trampling the military camp!
