Chapter three hundred and ninety fifth arrow rain cover
Fifty huge cowhide drums on top of Yingzhou City made an ear-splitting sound that went straight to the outside of the Great Wall. https:
The Turkic army suddenly panicked: "Tamur, gather the soldiers, the southerners have begun to attack."
"Haha, General Tuomuhua, these southerners have fallen into the king's trick of luring the enemy. Has the defender of Yingzhou City been replaced? They are so stupid."
Tens of thousands of Turkic cavalry began to get on their horses and draw scimitars from their waists to prepare for battle. As long as these southerners dared to go out of the city to fight, they would never come back.
At about the time of tea, the Turkic army did not hear any sounds of killing except for the sneezing of their horses. Outside Yingzhou City, no one came out to meet the enemy except for a few thousand men of Mo Dao team with bright armor.
.
Tens of thousands of Turkic troops looked at each other with big eyes and small eyes, a little confused.
Tomuhua waved the riding crop in his hand fiercely and said with a gloomy expression: "Tamur, these southerners are playing tricks on us. They have no intention of leaving the city."
Tamur put the scimitar back into the sheath with the same depressed expression: "These southerners are just a bunch of cowards. They don't dare to go out of the city to meet the enemy. They are cowards."
"Tamur, you continue to lead the soldiers to set up camp. I will report to the king and see what the king's orders are."
"I understand, children, continue to set up camp and ignore those cowardly Southerners."
Zhang Kuang looked at the Turkic army who had dismounted and continued to set up camp: "After half a cup of tea, I will continue to beat the drum. This general will make the Turkic people exhausted physically and mentally and have no intention of resting."
"yes."
"General, what you are doing is too bad. The Turks have to travel long distances. Now you are using a frightened strategy to deal with them. They must be paying their respects to your ancestors."
Zhang Kuang didn't care: "Since you can't wait for work in leisure, then let the troops get tired and let these Turks relax and tense up. It is best not to set up camp. It is freezing outside and there is no tent to keep warm. They will freeze into popsicles at night."
Believe it or not."
Zhong Qiang laughed loudly: "I believe it, of course I believe it. This winter in Northern Xinjiang is really not a good life for people. If you urinate slowly, a bird will freeze."
As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of drums was heard again, and the Turkic army immediately dropped their belongings and trotted to the side of the war horse, turned over and stood up in formation.
However, after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement in the direction of Yingzhou City. Apart from the rumbling drums, no soldiers were seen charging towards them.
"Bastard, bastard, cunning Southerner, coward."
Tamur looked frantically as he looked at the snowy field without any trace of humans or animals except for the howling wind and the heavy white snow.
"Continue to set up camp and ignore these timid southerners. They are deliberately disrupting our military morale."
Tens of thousands of cavalrymen once again jumped off their horses with confused expressions and began to set up camps.
"Haha, General, look, these Turks are just like fools."
Zhang Kuangya also had a chuckle on his lips: "After drinking tea, continue to beat the drum and let the soldiers on the city wall shout and charge to kill."
Zhong Qiang couldn't help but look at the busy Turks outside the city: "General, you are going to destroy them completely."
"You can visually check how far away the Turkic camp is!"
Hearing this, Zhong Qiang raised his finger to make gestures. After a few breaths, Zhong Qiang lowered his arm and said, "General, you must be at least five miles away and no longer within the range of the eight-niu crossbow."
Zhang Kuang shook his head regretfully: "These people are really cautious. The Turks still have some brains."
Accompanied by the rumbling drums, bursts of fighting sounds spread towards the Turkic camp.
"The enemy attack is real this time. Mount your horse to meet the enemy."
The Turks got on their horses again in panic, quickly drew out the scimitars from their waists, clamped their legs tightly around the horse's belly, and were ready to charge.
Tens of thousands of war horses also began to flap their hooves restlessly.
What made them confused was that there were only shouts of death in Yingzhou City, but no one appeared at all.
Tamur's face turned purple and he was breathing heavily: "Bortie, you lead the children to set up camp, and I, the general, go to see the king. These southerners are bullying others too much."
"yes."
Dulu King Ashina was listening to Tamur's report with a Turkic woman in his arms, looking equally depressed.
"These southerners are really insidious and cunning. They know that we are exhausted after a long journey, and they deliberately use tactics to destabilize our troops. This is their strategy to tire out the troops. They tell the children to continue setting up camp and ignore their plots."
The eldest prince Ashinamo stood up and said: "Father, why don't you let me lead five thousand elite soldiers to attack the city first and try to kill their vigor? How long will it take for our camp to be set up after they have been harassing us like this?"
Ashina hesitated: "Those southerners are deliberately tempting us to attack the city. If we attack the city, wouldn't we fall into their trap? This is inappropriate."
"Your Majesty, the general also agrees with the eldest prince's suggestion. Babol is willing to serve as the eldest prince's vanguard officer to kill the arrogance of the southerners."
"Your Majesty, give me the order. Turkic warriors are not afraid of death."
"Please give the order, Your Majesty."
Ashina took a deep breath: "Ashina, obey the order."
"My son is here."
"I order you to lead five thousand elite troops to attack the city. Remember, if the attack fails, retreat immediately and do not quarrel with the southerners."
"Follow orders."
"Babor, Zhegushu, you choose five thousand people to accompany me to attack the city."
"Follow orders."
A long and deep sound of horns came from the Turkic camp, and three thousand cavalry and two thousand siege infantry began to slowly advance towards Yingzhou City.
Zhong Qiang's expression became solemn: "General, the Turks are trying to attack the city!"
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhang Kuang's mouth: "If you're not afraid of them attacking the city, I'm afraid they won't attack the city. Zhong Qiang will obey the order."
"The end will be here."
"The Eight Oxen Crossbows were all strung up and divided into two teams. Within 6300 steps, one team shot the Turkic cavalry and the other team shot their siege infantry. The Eight Oxen Crossbows fired three volleys, followed by thousands of strong archers.
A volley of arrows were fired, covering them with rain of arrows, so that these Turkic dogs would never come back."
"It's an order."
"Bang the drum!"
A long and deep horn sound and a rumbling drum sound began to negotiate in the air.
Hearing the sound of drums on the city wall, Ke Yan, who was under the city gate, waved the command flag: "Mo Dao team, five-element chain formation, set up the formation. Sword and shield hands will cover to prevent Turkic arrows from killing the Mo Dao hands."
The two thousand soldiers of Mo Dao Team are all powerful. These two thousand people are the best soldiers among the carefully selected soldiers.
Zhang Kuang kept in mind what Young Master Liu said, Mo Dao Shou must be strong and powerful in order to bring out the essence of Mo Dao. When Zhang Kuang selected Mo Dao Shou, he was very careful and without any carelessness...
The Modao team looked at the endless Turkic vanguard cavalry, which was several times their own, without any fear, and began to arrange their troops in an orderly and orderly manner, as if the five thousand cavalry coming from the opposite side were not the notorious Turkic cavalry but a group of unrelated people.
Like an important beast.
"Children, those cowardly southerners have stretched out their necks to wait for our sabers. The city has prepared fine wine, beautiful silks, and beautiful women waiting for us to come. Do you want to go and see them?
ah."
"think!"
"think"
"attack!"
Three thousand cavalry took the lead and galloped towards Yingzhou City. The snow flew under their horses' hoofs and their scimitars were shining brightly. The black mass attacked Yingzhou City, leaving the infantry far behind.
Zhong Qiang looked at the five thousand mighty cavalry with disdain and sneered: "Throw aside the infantry and use the cavalry to attack the city. This is a fool's command."
When the Turkic cavalry entered the effective shooting range, Zhong Qiang suddenly waved the command flag in his hand: "Generals, listen to the order and fire arrows."
The constant sound of breaking the air came from the top of Yingzhou City, and the arrows flew towards the Turks like dense raindrops.
"Why is it so dark?" Ashinamo raised his head in surprise.
Looking at the rain of arrows that covered the sky, Ashinamo looked horrified: "Wolf God, it's an arrow! Charge sideways."
