Chapter 445
Jiaxi said that he wanted Gu Feng to return to the barracks, but his attitude was extremely tough and he did not give Gu Feng any room to maneuver.TXT download. At this time, Gu Feng broke out in cold sweat. Tang Yin sent out hidden arrows to force himself to stay in the barracks. What does this mean? Did he see through that he was faking surrender?
impossible! Gu Feng secretly shook his head and immediately rejected this inference. If Tang Yin really saw through him, he would not let him stay in the camp. Instead, he would send someone to capture him for interrogation or directly execute him. Besides, Tianyuan It is absolutely true that the army's food and grass are being transported to Beiying. I saw it with my own eyes!
He was still thinking over and over in his mind, and Jiaxi said again impatiently: "General Gu, please!" Gu Feng came back to his senses, smiled dryly at Jiaxi, turned around, and slowly retreated to his barracks. middle. The hidden personnel stayed outside the tent and surrounded Gu Feng's tent. Jiaxi followed Gu Feng into the tent. He did not go inside. When he came closer, he sat down at the door of the tent, closed his eyes, and Silent.
Seeing Jiaxi's appearance, Gu Feng secretly smiled bitterly. Dark spiritual cultivators are really annoying. The man in front of him is almost exactly the same as Jiang Fan! Jiaxi sat there like a rock, motionless. Gu Feng originally wanted to check the breath from his mouth, but he swallowed it back before the words came out.
On the other side, Tang Yin is making final arrangements.
There are famous generals like Zhan Wushuang in Zhangyu City, and it is not easy to get the enemy to counterattack one's own plan. All deployments must be done carefully and without any negligence. Now, Tang Yin has prepared an ambush at the Chinese Army Camp, but this does not mean that it is over. Now Tang Yin is considering who to send to the North Camp to stage a feint attack.
If you want to seduce the enemy, you must first make the enemy think that you have fallen into the trap. Therefore, you still have to fight to attack Zhangyu North City, and you must fight fiercely to make the enemy think that you have used all your strength. What they faced was their own main force.
Who will command this battle that is not a real attack but must show a real attack posture? Naturally, there are two candidates, Xiao Muqing and Ziying. From the heart, Tang Yin is more assured of Xiao Muqing. After all, the Pingyuan Army's combat effectiveness It was too strong. When they attacked fiercely, the momentum displayed was basically the same as that of an all-out attack by one's own army. However, Tang Yin also had to consider that since the enemy army led his own army to attack Beicheng, there must be heavy guard and sufficient troops there. No matter who attacks the city defense equipment, they will be subject to fierce counterattack by the enemy and the losses will be considerable. The Pingyuan Army is our own elite and should not be used as cannon fodder. If the soldiers suffer large-scale losses, it will be very harmful to our own side. The overall combat effectiveness also has a huge impact.
After repeated consideration, Tang Yin finally decided to let the Sky Eagle Army led by Ziying conduct a feint attack.
After hearing Tang Yin's order, Ziying could also understand Tang Yin's approach. As the core force of his own side, the Pingyuan Army was indeed not suitable for a feint attack.
After receiving the order, Ziying didn't waste much time and dispatched all the tens of thousands of Sky Eagle troops to the northern camp at night. At present, the strength of the Sky Eagle Army is not large. With successive battles and losses, the overall strength of the Sky Eagle Army has been reduced sharply from the original 150,000 to 60,000 to 70,000. Even so, there are still many People are injured.
It took a lot of thinking for Ziying to make these tens of thousands of people pretend to be an army of nearly 200,000, but he was quick to react and quickly thought of a countermeasure.
He asked people to bring a large number of helmets and spears from his own military inventory, and then distributed them, giving each of his soldiers a helmet and a spear.
The officers and soldiers of the Sky Eagle Army were quite surprised. They already had helmets on their heads and weapons in their hands. What did it mean that the general was handing out helmets and weapons at this time? Everyone is a monk who is two feet tall and confused.
Ziying didn't explain. He silently picked up a spear and hung his helmet on it. After looking at it twice, he felt something was wrong. He put the spear down, pulled out his sword, and slashed hard at the spear body. .
Click! The wooden shaft of the spear was split in two by the sword. Then he picked up the half-meter-long tail end and hung the helmet on it again. This time, as long as he raised his arm a little, the helmet on the half-spear could be Level with the top of your head.
At this time, Ziying nodded with satisfaction, rolled his eyes again, stretched out his hand to call a group of soldiers, and asked them to imitate him, cut off their spears one after another, and hung their helmets on them. Then he asked them to stand together. , and he kept retreating, and he didn't stop until he was more than fifty meters away.
He raised his eyes and looked at the group of soldiers. The night was dark and visibility was limited. At this time, he could only vaguely see a dark group of people in front of them. Their helmets were swarming with red tassels standing on top, and he couldn't tell the number of them.
After reading this, Ziying secretly laughed in her heart. We are below the city, and the enemy is above the city. Looking from top to bottom, and with the cover of night, if our position is a little more relaxed, all the enemy can see is probably the dense pressure. A piece of red tassel, in this way, the strength of one's own troops will be doubled invisibly. It would be strange if the enemy didn't think that one's own troops were all out!
At this time, Ziying's subordinates also basically understood his intention. The corps commander and the lieutenants came forward and asked in unison: "General, are you going to use the strategy of confusing the enemy?" "That's right!" Ziying raised the half-spear in his hand and smiled: "Using this thing, our 70,000 soldiers can instantly become 140,000. Such a large number of troops will concentrate on attacking the north city of Zhangyu. Even if the enemy is well prepared, they will be scared to death!" "Ah, yes..." The corps commander and the lieutenants looked at each other, and finally their eyes fell on the half-spear in Ziying's hand. It's really amazing that the general could think of it. This is simply like a child's play!
Ziying didn't care what his generals thought, and ordered: "Let the brothers below do it according to my method, and then rest together. Wait until the fourth watch, and follow me to attack the city!" "Yes! General!" The generals took the order and left.
That night, Zhangyu City and the Tianyuan Army camp were exceptionally quiet, strangely quiet, and terrifyingly quiet, but beneath the surface of calm, undercurrents were surging, and both sides were hiding murderous intentions. The most critical battle that would determine the fate of both sides quietly began.
Time passed by minute by minute, but for the generals on both sides, the time now seemed unusually long and difficult.
At four o'clock in the morning, Ziying was resting in the tent with his eyes closed. At this time, Le Tian came in from outside, took out the command arrow, handed it to Ziying, and said: "My Lord has ordered that General Ziying attack the northern city of Zhangyu immediately!" "I obey your order!" In the army, the commander's command arrow is extraordinary. Seeing the order is like seeing the person. Ziying stood up, knelt on one knee, carefully took the command arrow, then stood up and said to Le Tian: "General Le Tian, please go back and report to my Lord. I will lead the army to attack!" Le Tian nodded and was about to go out, but he still stopped, turned around halfway, and whispered: "General Ziying should also be more careful!" As a messenger, he should not say extra words, but Le Tian was really worried about Ziying.
Ziying looked at Le Tian gratefully and said seriously: "General Le Tian, don't worry about me. It's the adults who are in danger. It's also a tough battle. General Le Tian must protect the adults!" Le Tian looked solemn, nodded heavily, and said: "I understand! General Ziying, I'm leaving!" After Le Tian left, Ziying immediately sent people to summon all the generals and conveyed the order for the whole army to attack.
At the command of the commander, the whole army moved, and about 70,000 Tianying soldiers poured out of the north camp of Tianyuan Army like a tide.
At the fourth watch, when the sky was the darkest, the Tianying Army was covered with black helmets and black armor, almost blending into the night. People held shields in one hand and half a spear in the other, with an empty helmet hanging on it. They left the barracks silently and approached Zhangyu North City quietly.
The movement of 70,000 people, even if the movement was careful and slow, would still make a lot of noise.
On the other side
It can be said that as soon as there was any movement in the north camp of the Tianyuan Army, Zhan Wushuang and other generals lurking in the north city discovered it.
Looking out from the city, a large group of people poured out of the Tianyuan Army's camp. Even the soldiers in front were more than a mile away from the camp, and the soldiers behind were still going out continuously. Zhan Wushuang hid behind the arrow stack, staring with wide eyes, and said in a concentrated voice: "The Tianyuan Army is indeed attacking with its entire army!" Zhong Tian, who was half asleep and half awake, sitting on the ground next to Zhan Wushuang, heard the words, as if he had an electric shock, and suddenly shuddered in fear. He hurriedly got up, exposed half of his head, and looked out. It would have been better if he didn't look. After watching, Zhong Tian's face suddenly turned pale. He knew that the Tianyuan Army had a lot of troops, but he didn't expect there would be so many. He saw that less than two miles away from the north city, it was full of Tianyuan Army. It was impossible to tell the number of people. He could only see a piece of red tassels, as if an endless reed had grown out of thin air outside the city, with no edge.
"Tian... Tianyuan Army... is coming! General Wushuang, hurry... hurry up and send the order to shoot arrows..." Zhong Tian was shocked and scared at this time, and he couldn't even speak clearly.
Zhan Wushuang laughed out loud. The Tianyuan Army came out in full force. This was a good thing, indicating that his plan had succeeded! He smiled at Zhong Tian and said softly: "Your Majesty, don't worry. It's not too late to shoot arrows when the enemy is closer to us!" Now, although there are 40,000 soldiers on their side, there are not many real archers among them. Most of them are a mob that has been temporarily trained for a few days. Not to mention the distance of two miles, even if the enemy is close at hand, it is a question whether the soldiers on our side can shoot people to death!
"How close... how close do we have to wait?" Zhong Tian asked with a grin.
Zhan Wushuang said faintly: "Sixty feet away is the best!" Puff! Zhong Tian almost fainted after hearing this. Sixty feet away, doesn't that mean they have already rushed to the front? If the enemy makes a little more effort, they can directly rush to the city and set up ladders to attack the city. He wanted to say something, but Zhan Wushuang waved his hand to call a messenger and said to him: "You immediately ride a fast horse to the south city and find the three generals Zhan Wudi, Hao Zhao, and Jiang Fan, and pass on my military order, saying that the enemy has fallen into the trap, and the three of them will immediately lead their troops out of the city and attack the enemy camp!"
