Chapter 222: Working in Collusion (400 Monthly Tickets)

(PS: 400 monthly tickets plus updates in advance, thank you for your support!!!)

Yongye Town, Lord's Mansion.

While Ouyang Shuo was busy working for the Gufeng Medicine Garden, Shapojun and Black Cloak were connected by Dichen, and they finally came together and began to work hand in hand, forming a temporary alliance.

"How many troops has Shanhai County deployed to the west?" Sha Pojun asked. In order to retaliate against Ouyang Shuo, Sha Pojun spent a lot of money this time, spending 2,000 gold coins, and sent over 2,000 troops, all of whom were elites.

The black cloak did not do nothing, and said: "I have already investigated clearly. There is only one garrison in the west of Shanhai County. It is a full-strength brigade with 2,500 people."

Sha Pojun frowned, "In this case, the two of us alone are not enough to kill this brigade, right?" Although Sha Pojun hated Ouyang Shuo, he did not lose his mind.

"Brother Kill, don't worry, I have contacted Xiaofeng Canyue and Chengfengpolang from Tiandao League, they will be there immediately." The black cloak said confidently.

"Good!" Sha Pojun was overjoyed.

Xiaofeng Wanyue was originally an advocate of inviting foreign aid, but Riding the Wind and Breaking the Waves was cold-hearted. Like Yongye Town, it was directly threatened by Shanhai County. The black cloak stated on the alliance channel that he had invited the Shapo Army, and that the Shapo Army had brought two thousand troops, and the three of them hit it off.

Xiaofeng Wanyue was also ambitious, knowing that he could not hesitate at this time, and directly brought all the 1,000 elites in the territory; riding the wind and breaking the waves broke the boat and brought 500 elites.

Although Ba Dao and the others did not come, they promised to cooperate with this operation and launch an attack in the east to contain the army of Shanhai County and make Shanhai County suffer from enemies on both sides.

Everyone knew in their hearts that if this operation was unsuccessful, it would become benevolence. Once they fail, they will face crazy revenge from Shanhai County, and there is no room for compromise.

Even if they kill the army, they will not be able to organize a second reinforcement in a short time. For two thousand troops, the cost of one round trip and one round trip is 4000 gold coins, which is not a small sum for Shura County.

The black cloak is also a ruthless person, in order to protect his own territory, he will not hesitate to drag his allies into the water together.

On the afternoon of September 2, four thousand troops secretly assembled in Yongye Town.

The 4,000-strong army is dominated by swordsmen and archers, and there are less than 1,000 light cavalry.

At one o'clock in the morning, taking advantage of the darkness, the army quietly set off from Yongye Town, aiming directly at the West Camp of Shanhai County. Yongye Town is less than 20 kilometers away from Daying in the west of the city.

The army wears stars and wears the moon, and the night is as dark as ink. The soldiers had to light torches to see the road under their feet clearly. The dots of flames formed a winding and undulating fire dragon in the wilderness. Jackals, tigers and leopards that came out to hunt at night in the wilderness had no choice but to retreat when they saw such a large army.

At three o'clock in the morning, the army arrived at the border of Shanhai County. In order to avoid being discovered by the sentinels, the army had to extinguish the torches in their hands, and continued to move forward through the gradually dimming night.

The border area, because it is a newly added territory, Shanhai County has not had time to set up settlements here. Along the way, you can occasionally see empty villages or small towns, which are player territories that have not yet settled in after being occupied by Shanhai County.

Seeing these occupied territories, the black cloaks feel even more sympathetic. If they don't unite and resist together, the scene in front of them is the foreseeable future.

Because he had just won a battle, Shi Wansui, the commander of the west camp, was also careless and did not arrange night patrols. In Shi Wansui's mind, it would be good if he didn't bully others, whoever had the guts of a bear, dared to go deep into the territory, and came to stroke the tiger's beard in Shanhai County.

At 5:30 in the morning, the 4,000-strong army suddenly appeared outside the camp in the west of the city like a group of ghosts. At this time, the sky was already twilight, the moon was sinking to the west, and a round of red sun was trying to jump out from the horizon.

As a high-level military camp, the camp in the west of the city is very complete, with thick wooden walls and arrow towers. There was a sentry on the arrow tower, and the soldiers who stood there were sleepy and couldn't concentrate. When the army appeared in front of the camp, they were shot to death before they had time to raise the alarm. The last sentinel was lucky enough to be shot in the abdomen by an arrow and let out a scream before dying.

"Ah~~~" The shrill cry cut through the silent wilderness, and blew the horn of death.

There was a sudden commotion in the camp. The patrol team in charge of night patrol in the camp was the first to react, and immediately rushed towards the gate of the camp. At the same time, a small team was sent to wake up the soldiers of each battalion.

As the commander-in-chief of this operation, Sha Pojun saw that the enemy had been alarmed, completely dispelled the idea of ​​sneaking into the camp, and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

More than two thousand soldiers with swords and shields, like a pack of hungry wolves, rushed straight to the gate of the camp. The soldiers carried huge logs and slammed into the gate, because the gate was not guarded, and it was about to be smashed.

Fortunately, at this time, the patrol team rushed over in time, and the soldiers pressed their bodies against the gate, and at the same time found a log to support it behind the gate, trying to buy time for their comrades.

It's just that a patrol team of ten people is tantamount to a mantis holding a cart in front of an army of two thousand. In less than a few minutes, the gate was broken down, and the patrol members behind the gate were knocked to the ground.

The captain of the patrol team, an eighth-rank elite soldier, with a solemn face, tightly held the spear in his hand, stood in front of the door, and shouted loudly: "Kill!"

The enemies who broke into the door raised their big knives one after another, and slashed them mercilessly. The captain's spear stabbed forward and immediately stabbed an enemy in the abdomen. It's a pity that the enemy's knives were also cut down one after another, and the captain was killed immediately, including the members of the patrol team lying on the ground. The troops following behind directly trampled the bodies of the patrol members into meat paste.

The sword and shield troops began to divide into squadrons, like a pack of hungry wolves, rushing towards the camps one by one. Some of the soldiers in the tent who were awakened by the sounds of killing and sirens had already put on their armor, but some had not had time to put on their armor. They could only hurriedly raise their weapons and fight with the enemies who rushed into the camp.

The soldiers of the first brigade are the elite of the Shanhai County Army, all of them have experienced hundreds of battles, even if they are not wearing armor, they are not timid or inferior. While repelling the enemy troops that rushed into the camp, they gathered together, trying to rush out of the camp and join the main force.

The following cavalry, under the leadership of the Shapo Army, shuttled between the camps in several groups, and specially selected the assembled troops to charge and kill, in an attempt to prevent the soldiers of the first brigade from gathering together. The sporadic assembled troops were rushed by a large group of cavalry, and immediately dispersed and began to fight on their own.

The last group of archers who followed was lined up in front of the camp. Wave after wave of arrow rain aimed at the top of each tent, pouring down mercilessly.

All of a sudden, the Shanhai County First Brigade was in chaos, with an empty army, but was divided by the enemy and could not gather together. The shouts of killing, the neighing of war horses, the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air, and the cries of the wounded for help came together. Flooded over the camp, forming a human elegy.

As a super general, Shi Wansui's vigilance is very high. After the patrol team found something unusual, he woke up immediately. As an experienced general, Shi Wansui did not run out of the camp directly to check what was going on, but began to put on the armor with the help of his own soldiers.

After dressing up, Shi Wansui walked out of the tent with his spear in hand. At this time, the enemy was still storming the gate of the camp. Upon discovering the enemy attack, Shi Wansui's first thought was not to think about why or who the enemy was. His first reaction was to gather troops quickly.

Shi Wansui sent out all his own soldiers, sounded the alarm, assisted the patrols, woke up the soldiers of each battalion, and ordered each battalion to gather their own troops and gather at his place.

While waiting for the troops to assemble, Shi Wansui ordered his personal guards to send out an early warning signal.

The sentry towers set up along the way saw the early warning signal sent by the camp in the west of the city, and did not dare to neglect at all, followed by sending out the early warning signal, and passed it all the way to the base camp. The city wall defenders, that is, the soldiers of the city defense battalion, saw the warning signal emitted by the sentry tower, and immediately divided into two groups to report. All the way into the military camp, notify the city defense battalion; all the way straight to the Hou Mansion, notify Ouyang Shuo.

The first to gather was the first battalion. Shi Hu hurried over with five hundred soldiers. The location of the first battalion is at the rear of the camp, so there is enough time to gather troops.

Seeing the first battalion rushing over, Shi Wansui felt certain. With the presence of the First Battalion, he has confidence.

Seeing more and more sounds of fighting in the camp, Shi Wansui made a decisive decision, knowing that he could not wait, he must take the initiative to attack and gather troops along the way. He ordered the 1st Battalion to form a defensive formation and began to advance towards the 2nd Battalion's quarters.

Along the way, they encountered a small group of cavalry, unable to break through the defense line of the first battalion, and were cut down to the ground. The troops continued to advance, and when the soldiers along the way saw the first battalion, they immediately rushed out of the camp and joined the army.

Therefore, Shi Wansui relied on the first battalion to open the way and gather more and more troops. At the back, no one dared to provoke him. When the troops arrived at the second battalion camp, it had expanded to thousands of people.

The second battalion was at the front of the camp. Because the infantry armor was troublesome to wear, the helpless mountain barbarians could only rely on the shields and swords in their hands to fight the enemy and suffered heavy losses.

Seeing the large troops coming for reinforcements, the surviving soldiers were overjoyed. The soldiers of the first battalion took over the line of defense and bought time for the second battalion to put on their armor. At this moment, Li Mingliang led the third battalion and finally came to reinforce them.

Seeing that the opponent's troops were gradually assembled, the Shapo Army did not dare to neglect, and ordered the scattered troops to regroup to avoid being defeated by the opponent one by one.

Both sides began to gather troops, and the final decisive battle was coming.

Shi Wansui made a brief count, and in less than an hour, the first brigade lost more than 700 soldiers, and he couldn't help being very angry. Such a large loss is unprecedented. Seeing that the opponent's troops gathered more and more, Shi Wansui did not dare to neglect, let alone be brave, and ordered his personal guards to send a distress signal to the base camp.
