Chapter 2043 Ambush and Wait

By the moonlight, a cavalry team of a thousand people was hiding by the river five miles away from Bashui County.

The densely packed cavalry brigade of a thousand people with no end in sight made Diao Jun feel particularly unreal.

"Don't be nervous!" Cen Pei said softly, probably hearing the rapid breathing next to him, "We are only responsible for the response and are not directly involved in the battle. The worst-case scenario is that the enemy comes out of the city to attack our feint attack team. I will be there at that time If you're lucky, nothing will happen to us!"

"Yeah!" Diao Jun put his right hand on his racing heart, trying to calm himself down.

"Boom! Boom! Boom..." Suddenly, a dull sound of drums pierced the night sky, accompanied by the horn, waking up the defenders in the city.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!!" The soldiers of Gao State on the city wall quickly gathered together, looking nervously at the long dragons composed of flames in the distance.

Sha Yihe, the prefect of Bashui County, Zhuo Yan, the general of Pingnan, and Moriko, the general of Miao County, woke up in panic and immediately rushed to the city gate with their generals.

"What's going on?" When they reached the top of the city gate, Pingnan General Zhuo Yan looked nervously at the approaching fire in the distance.

"General Zhuo, there is no need to worry!" Sha Yihe said immediately, "If the enemy dares to attack at night, let them never come back. Our Bashui County has high walls and strong cities, so we are not afraid of them!"

As he spoke, the fire was very close.

"Archers!" Sha Yihe quickly ordered, and the archers on the city wall all drew their bows and nocked arrows, preparing for battle.

The opponent's army was about to enter the shooting range, and Sha Yihe's raised hand was ready to be waved forward.

At this moment, the opposing army suddenly fired countless rockets, forming dazzling sparks all over the night.

It's just that the distance of these rockets is not enough, and they can't reach the top of the city wall at all. They draw a beautiful parabola in the air and fall directly to the ground outside the city wall.

Sha Yihe was confused and turned around to find that Zhuo Yan and Moli Ke were also confused.

Just as he was thinking about the opponent taking a step forward, he immediately fired his bows and arrows. However, the next moment, he suddenly found that the densely packed torches began to retreat, and it didn't take long before they completely disappeared from the horizon.

"What's going on?" Morico's eyes widened, "You're withdrawing now?"

“The enemy is afraid that he may want to attack him unprepared;

But they didn’t expect that we were well-defended. Zhuo Yan said, "I hit a wall and had to run away!" "

"I always feel something is strange." Sha Yihe ordered the archers to put down their weapons and looked into the distance with a frown.

"It's just that the night attack failed. What's wrong? It's a false alarm. Let's all go back and rest! Recharge your batteries. There will be a big battle tomorrow!" Zhuo Yan's sword was sheathed.

"The two generals will go back to rest first, and I will watch for a while." Sha Yihe was still more cautious, so he chose to stay.

After Zhuo Yan and Moli Ke left, there was no movement for a while. Sha Yihe also felt relieved and ordered the soldiers to patrol vigilantly before turning around and returning.

Not long after I fell asleep, there was another roar of gongs and drums outside, and horns sounded.

Sha Yihe, Zhuo Yan, and Moriko led their troops to the city wall in a panic. When they saw the enemy attacking again, they immediately ordered to prepare for the attack.

However, it was the same this time. The opponent stayed outside the range of the archers, fired a meaningless rocket near the city gate, and then slowly retreated under the questioning eyes of the defenders.

Forget it once or twice, and then come every once in a while. They don't really attack the city, they just shoot meaningless rockets and run away.

The defenders here are very angry. If you want to fight, just fight hard. You guys are always on the edge and can't get in. It's too much! Or just go back to sleep and see you on the battlefield tomorrow. You don't sleep, but you keep harassing us and not letting us sleep. Isn't it disgusting?

"What are these bastards going to do?" After being woken up several times in a row, Zhuo Yan had dark circles under his eyes and couldn't sleep well at all.

Not only him, Sha Yihe, Morico and other generals were also exhausted.

"I can't stand it anymore!" Morico waved his sword angrily, "If they still dare to come, I will go out of the city to fight!"

"No!" Sha Yihe hurriedly advised, "The enemy's intentions are unknown, so don't move lightly!"

"If this continues, I will be annoyed to death by them!" Morico said angrily, "Are you going to let them rest?"

"I understand!" A civil servant behind Sha Yihe suddenly said, "Master Taishou, two generals, this should be the enemy's plan to weaken the army!"

"What do you mean by the strategy of exhausting the army?" Everyone turned to look at the civil servants.

"I'm afraid there is a small group of enemy troops outside the city, beating drums and trumpets and shooting arrows. They are just harassing us and preventing our troops from sleeping peacefully." The civil servant replied respectfully, "But the main force of the enemy troops is resting and recuperating in a camp far away. In this way, Tomorrow our army will be exhausted, but the enemy will be full of energy. If we attack the city again then, the situation will definitely change. "

"It's so insidious!" Zhuo Yan puffed his beard and glared, "Are you just kidding us? Are you not letting us sleep?"

"Then how should we respond?" Sha Yihe turned around and asked.

"Report it to the prefect!" the civil servant replied with a smile, "Since you know that the other side is a plan to exhaust the army, you can't follow it. You can send a partial division to ambush outside the city, wait for the enemy to harass again, surround and kill from both sides! Even if you can't Total destruction will also make them fearful and afraid to do it again.”

"Wouldn't it be better to just guard the entire army outside the city and wait for the enemy to come and kill them all?" Morrico snorted.

"That's not right!" said the civil servant. "The enemy's intention is to tire me out. If I take advantage of the enemy's plan, the gains outweigh the losses! Furthermore, the movement of the army is too noisy and can easily be noticed by the opponent, which will scare them away."

"It makes sense!" Sha Yihe, Zhuo Yan, and Moriko looked at each other and nodded.

"Then I will lead 1,000 cavalrymen to ambush outside the city!" Morico said, "If he dares to come again, I guarantee that he will never come back!"

"Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken?" A deputy general in silver armor came out from behind, clasping his fists, "I am willing to lead the troops!"

"I am willing to follow the army!" Another young general stood up, all of whom were Morico's capable generals.

"Okay!" Morico laughed, "Since that's the case, I will send you two to lead 1,000 troops to ambush outside the city, and wait for the enemy to arrive, and kill them without leaving a single piece of armor!"

"Yes!!"

"Since the two generals are willing to fight, there is no time to lose!" Sha Yihe immediately made arrangements, "Please leave the city and ambush quickly, and don't let the enemy notice."

The two deputy generals of Morico immediately went down the city wall, mobilized their respective armies, and just gathered 1,000 cavalrymen, and asked them to open the city gates and rush out at night, rushing to the groves on both sides of the city.

"Then we will go back to the camp to rest. Don't worry about the enemy's drums and horns. Have a good rest tonight and fight the enemy tomorrow!" Sha Yihe turned around and said.

"It should be so!" Zhuo Yan and Morico nodded, each took their generals to leave the city wall and return to the barracks.

The large army in the city rested and returned to silence again.

Morico's two lieutenants were ambushed in the woods on both sides, hiding in the dark green shade.
