In the thick night, the sounds of snoring began to sound in various camps. There were not so many entertainment items in the army. In the evening, after having a good meal, these soldiers had already taken a rest.
However, outside the tents and in this large camp, the bonfires were not extinguished for a long time, and groups of patrolling soldiers walked through the camp from time to time.
Obviously, the general in this large camp was very cautious and did not relax his vigilance at all because of the night. The soldiers who should rest still rested, and none of the patrol soldiers were left behind!
However, in this dark night, a large black shadow gradually appeared in the distance.
"Stab." At this time, in this large black shadow, a general with a resolute face was standing here holding a tall horse that was blindfolded.
If there is a slightly knowledgeable person here, he may be able to recognize that these horses are the most sophisticated war horses, which can only be equipped by elite cavalry!
But at this time, hundreds of ownerless horses were pulled to the front, followed by rows of soldiers, the spears in their hands glowing with a cold light.
These are the best war horses, but now, these war horses will bring victory to tonight's night attack. And the price of this victory may be their sacrifice.
"Huh." As the command was given, these men raised their spears and stabbed forward with reluctance, hitting the horse's back butt. The horse that was stabbed immediately neighed and ran forward wildly.
"Enemy attack." The personal quality of these Dongyi soldiers is still very good, and they have always maintained the vigilance they should have.
It can be said that Dongyi has always been Beidi's younger brother, and they have a deep connection with each other. Many of them are not very familiar with the sound of horse hooves. At this time, hearing this undisguised sound, the patrolling soldiers near the camp gate quickly gathered
, wanting to deal with these incoming 'cavalry' based on past experience.
Unfortunately, they didn't expect that these war horses were not the cavalry they usually dealt with at all, but wild beasts whose eyes were covered, unable to see the road ahead, and stabbed in the buttocks, running wildly.
"boom!"
A group of Dongyi soldiers immediately hid behind the antlers at the camp entrance, raising their spears and preparing to stab.
As a result, several war horses ignored the deer's antlers and directly hit it. The huge impact force directly broke a large part of the deer's antlers. The horse was dead, but its horse corpse also knocked over several sergeants.
Another man was hit in the stomach by a broken piece of antlers and died screaming.
"Attack." After waiting for a quarter of an hour, expecting those crazy horses to have passed by, Wen Zhong led his cavalry to attack the Dongyi camp.
The rebels had just passed through a chaotic situation. Although they expected that there were enemy troops behind them, they had not completed their defense at this time. They were still facing a fierce general like Wen Zhong. They were directly penetrated and had no power to fight back. Wen Zhong
Zhong easily entered the camp gate and rushed into the camp.
Patrolling men and horses from all over the camp gathered in a hurry, and the soldiers who had been sleeping soundly in each tent were also awakened by this sudden change.
The soldiers in the camps farther away from the camp gate were relatively lucky, at least giving them a certain amount of time to react.
But the soldiers in the tents that were closer to the camp gate could only blame themselves for their miserable lives. They had just been awakened by the sudden change. A large number of war horses directly hit the tents and trampled them with iron hooves. These panicked soldiers
The fate of the confused soldiers can be imagined.
Some were even more unlucky. They were just about to pick up the weapons in the tent and rush out, but a few torches came from nowhere and flew to the tent. The entire tent was already in flames in the blink of an eye.
Sad roars kept coming.
At this time, Qiao Shefei was sleeping soundly in the tent. Suddenly he heard a loud noise outside the tent, and he immediately started to stir up excitement, and he also had some guesses about what happened outside the tent.
"General, something bad has happened. The Cang army attacked the camp overnight and set fire everywhere. They have already come to kill the general!" He put on his armor as quickly as possible. Just when he walked out of the camp, a captain panicked.
Confused, he rushed over to report it.
"How many troops are there in the enemy's army?" Qiao Shefei directly asked the most critical question.
"General, the enemy's army is so densely packed, there are at least 20,000 to 30,000 people! The brothers in the front camp can hardly hold on any longer!"
"Twenty to thirty thousand!" After hearing this answer, Qiao Shefei was determined.
According to what they said they had discovered, there were less than 20,000 enemy troops. So the so-called 20,000 to 30,000 enemy troops that appeared here tonight should be all the enemy troops they had to face.
After judging this, Qiao Shefei no longer became nervous even though he was attacked at night. The enemy troops who had been unable to capture the opponent's figure were the most troublesome before. Now that they have appeared, there is no
It used to be so troublesome!
"Quickly send a message to Li Jianyuan, Li Huaien and other generals, asking them to come to support immediately!"
"The rest of you, follow me to stop the enemy. You must hold on until the enemy arrives. Anyone who has made contributions in this battle will personally request credit from His Majesty!" Qiao Shefei quickly issued several instructions, and at the same time
, and also boosted the morale of the soldiers behind them.
At this time, the entire camp was already ablaze with flames, and there were sounds of fighting everywhere.
"Don't panic, come closer to me quickly!" A general holding a sword in one hand and a shield in the other roared in all directions with all his strength. However, the final effect was not very good!
He couldn't see the road clearly at night, he couldn't see the enemy, and he couldn't see the orders. How far could his roar reach alone?
This is not a TV show where a roar was heard by all the soldiers. On a serious battlefield, if you want the soldiers to react, you rely on the order flags or a large number of
messengers, or other methods, but it is absolutely impossible to rely on just one person's roar!
Of course, this person may also be aware of this problem and know that his voice alone cannot reach very far, let alone on this noisy battlefield.
After reacting, the general immediately asked the more than a hundred soldiers behind him to shout with him. This started to have some effect, and chaotic soldiers continued to gather here.
However, the continuous shouting attracted not only Dongyi's chaotic soldiers, but also attracted Wen Zhong's attention.
