Chapter 349 Night Terror
Chapter 349 Night Terror
The sun is approaching Xishan, and night is coming.In the camp of the Huns, there was still chaos.Today is another bitter battle, not to mention the generals of the commanding army, even the generals of the Di and Qiang troops are all exhausted.
"Buddha is in charge, how can he win? I want to go home and stop fighting..." a Qiang man rubbed his wound and muttered.
No wonder he said that.It has been ten days since the two armies confronted each other, but they haven't even hurt the fur of the Bingzhou soldiers and horses.The coach was so anxious that he began to use a large number of Qiangdi troops.These people are short of food and horses, and more than [-]% of them are infantry.On the battlefield, it is the life of filling the trench.
After rushing into the battle again and again, retreating and failing again and again, it is hard to tell how many people were injured and died.With the war, rumors also began to run rampant.Those Qiang people who believed in Buddhism couldn't hold back any longer and talked about the Buddha's children.It also found an invincible reason for the indestructible camp and the ominous creature that could throw huge stones.This rumor even shakes the morale of the army more than the war.
Hearing his nonsense, the companions on the side quickly covered his mouth.It is strictly forbidden to mention Buddha in the two Japanese army. If those Huns heard about it, they don't know how to punish them.
It's just that the mouth can be covered, but the heart can?
"We must never sit still and wait for death!" In the big tent, Liu Yao was also devastated.He didn't know that the people in the army were unstable, but the enemy camp on the opposite side was as indestructible as an iron barrel.
What's even more frightening is that the enemy began to avoid fighting!
After a small loss in the first battle, Liu Yao changed his formation, no longer surrounded by cavalry, but mixed infantry and cavalry, and launched a fierce attack.Although still not victorious, it is not hopeless.He has many soldiers under his command, so he can exchange troops and take turns to fight.But Bingzhou has few soldiers, even if it is good at fighting, it is impossible to withstand such an offensive.
But I didn't expect that as soon as the wheel battle was launched, the Bingzhou camp would turn from offense to defense and stay behind closed doors.
The original simple camp was repaired within a few days, and the huge Thunderbolt Cannon also appeared after rejecting the horse.Any means of attacking the camp would turn into a bloody massacre.It can't be attacked, it can't be broken, and even night raids to disturb the enemy can't achieve its due effect.The enemy was not worn down by his tactics. On the contrary, the long and fierce battle drained the morale of the army.Those miscellaneous beards whispered the names of the Buddha's disciples, and the food and fodder also decreased visible to the naked eye.
Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted.
Liu Yao is good at fighting, so he naturally understands what he is facing.Today's Bingzhou Daying is not far from Anyi city.And that Bingzhou Buddha is a poisonous bait that cannot be swallowed.Just getting ready for battle can make all the Qiang Hus feel timid and cholera the army.
You must never follow the other party to lead you by the nose.
"Liu Bao, you lead [-] cavalry around the battlefield and go straight to Anyi. Cut off the enemy's rear!" Facing his confidant and beloved general who is good at fighting, Liu Yao was still worried, and carefully told him, "This raid is of great importance. It is best to cut off the food roads of the Bingzhou camp in one fell swoop, and mobilize the soldiers! Once the Bingzhou soldiers retreat, it is the time for our army to defeat the enemy!"
It was risky, but there was no other way.With the army of Bingzhou outside, there must not be many defenders left behind.With [-] fine horses drawn out to attack, the possibility of success is extremely high.After success, it is possible to break through the enemy's camp by attacking from both sides.
"Your Majesty, if the enemy camp finds out about the division of troops, it might be a bad idea." The counselor at the side remonstrated.
With [-] cavalry, the strength of the battalion dropped sharply.If the enemy reacts, I am afraid they will attack aggressively.
"It's okay, if they avoid the war, we can also hang up the flag of avoiding the war." Liu Yao said coldly, "Order, the pots and stoves will not be extinguished, and the camp tents will not be withdrawn. Even if the scouts come to the front of the camp, we will not be able to find out the depth of our army. !"
The two camps were separated by a long distance, and they were also covered by the terrain.As long as troops are sent out at night, and the original number of camps and stoves remains unchanged, it will be extremely difficult for the convenience to detect the gap of [-] cavalry.It's too late when the back road is attacked!
All the generals under his command took orders together.Liu Yao also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.It is the best way to do it now without storming the Bingzhou Camp.Just look at whether this method of breaking the game will work!
That night, the cavalry quietly left the big tent.On the second day, the attack for several consecutive days also stopped. The two armies faced each other across the battalion and stood still.

"The Huns have finally ceased fighting, are they going to attack my rear?" In the commander's tent, Liang Feng also sat in front of the sand table early.
"There is news from the watchtower that although the smoke from the stove in the enemy camp has not diminished, the number of soldiers eating has decreased by more than ten thousand. It must be a surprise attack by dividing troops." Zhang Bin replied affirmatively.
The Xiongnu occupies a favorable location, and it is really difficult to detect if they want to secretly deploy troops.But no matter how much you pretend, you can't hide it from the telescope on the watchtower.It must be concealed when sending troops, it must be to sneak attack the rear.The staff battalion had anticipated this possibility long ago, and had drawn up no less than five tactics to deal with it.
"To attack Anyi, one day is enough time." Liang Feng asked, "How is the wind direction these two days?"
Zhang Bin understood: "It's all downwind, and it's windy at night."
With a smile on his face, Liang Feng nodded his head: "It seems that this time, I will take advantage of the wind."
No one can understand the stalk that everything is ready and only owes the east wind.But when the sky was completely dark, the banner on the watchtower was agitating in the direction of the Huns camp.All the people in the commander's tent stood on the platform.
The new moon is like a hook, and the sky is dark.Looking at the Huns' camp from a distance, it's like hiding in a gauze tent.This is an excellent opportunity for a night attack, but no troops were mobilized in the camp, only a small team rushed out of the camp.
Another half an hour later, in the wilderness, a fire suddenly appeared.Hundreds of white lamps fluttered up with the wind and rose into the air.
Who has seen this scene?Not to mention the soldiers in the camp, even the generals on the high platform couldn't help but gasp.Don't the lanterns just drop when you let go?Why can uncharacteristically fly straight into the sky?A spectacle of this scale is simply horrifying!
Looking at the continuous sky lanterns in mid-air, Liang Feng also narrowed his eyes.Even in later generations, the release of sky lanterns will cause a burst of surprise, let alone the present more than 1000 years ago.The staff battalion has arranged more than one night attack method, but this is undoubtedly the most effective and the most labor-saving one.
Turning his head, he said to the people around him: "It will take some time for the Kongming lantern to work. Let the soldiers rest first and stand by for orders."
Yiyan's eyes were not attracted by the lights all over the sky.He has seen countless wonders and tried countless miracles.However, everything was brought by the person in front of him.Compared with the astonishing sight, the indifference in that person's expression made him unable to hold back.
"My lord has a wonderful plan, and the general will live up to it." Under the shining lights, that figure was also imprinted in his eyes.Yiyan didn't reach out to touch it, but formed fists with both hands, and answered firmly.
With such a shocking array of lights, are you afraid that the Huns will not be in chaos?

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty is not good!"
He had to guard against the enemy all day, and finally stayed up until night. Liu Yao went to bed early, only looking forward to the good news tomorrow.
However, the letter came earlier than expected.In the middle of the night, he was awakened by his own soldiers. Hearing that there was a vision in the sky, Liu Yao ran out of the camp barefoot without even wearing his boots.
Could it be that Bingzhou used some tricks?Is it thunder or meteor?He also thought about a lot of ways to deal with it, so that the camp would not explode... All his wild thoughts came to an abrupt end.When the starlight came into view, Liu Yao's mind buzzed, and he almost lost his footing.what is that?lamp?Sky lanterns falling from the sky?
Who can make the lamp float into the air?Why are there so many lights?What's the use?
Although the huge earthquake disturbed his mind, Liu Yao still choked out a sentence: "They want to set fire... set fire to attack the camp!"
As if grasping at the last straw, Liu Yao raised the volume: "Quickly organize the crossbowmen and shoot down those lights! All battalions are on alert, and the tents must not be burned down. There is still food and grass... Yes, this direction , I want to destroy my food and fodder! We must not let them succeed!"
Buzzing in his mind, Liu Yao didn't want to think about why the fire came from the sky.And what kind of divine power can make thousands of lights float above their camp.Now he can think of only how to get rid of panic!Never scream!There must be no civil strife!Never let the enemy break through the camp!
"The whole army is in armor to guard against night attack!" Liu Yao's voice oozes hysteria.He must not let those Jin dogs succeed!
That night, countless sky lanterns flew over the Huns camp.Some were boundless and floated higher and higher, while others staggered and fell into the camp.Arrow feathers kept coming, roaring endlessly, and there were countless voices of chanting Buddha. The whole camp was like a huge boiling cauldron, ready for battle, and the bonfire was brightly lit.
Liu Yao did try his best to block the camp change, but the expected enemy never appeared.
When the first ray of sunlight crossed the sky, his face was ashen, and he looked outside the camp.Dozens of thunderbolt guns tore off the black cloth covering them, revealing the ferocious gun mounts.Innumerable spear points, shining brightly in the morning light.
The enemy did not attack, but they had come to the side unknowingly.After a night of panic and exhaustion, do his soldiers still have the strength to resist the attack?Do you still have the courage to compete with the powerful army led by Buddha?
No one could answer his question.
The huge Thunderbolt Cannon screamed, and bullets tore through the sky one after another, attacking the enemy camp!
