The midnight hour has come, and the night has become extremely deep. Whether it is the Youzhou Army camp outside the city or the heavily guarded Xiangping City, it is already dead silence at this time. Under the cloudy night sky, the earth is pitch black, except for There were still some torches flickering on and off at the top of the city and in the Youzhou Army camp, and everything seemed so peaceful, not much different from the nights that had lasted for more than half a month.
“Creak…”
It seems to be just a seeming thing, tonight is obviously different from the past. No, at three o'clock, with a slight friction sound, the north gate of Xiangping City was slowly pushed open from the inside. At the same time, , the suspension bridge hanging high on the top of the city was also gently lowered by the soldiers on duty. Before he could turn around, he saw Qi Cai, the general of the Liaodong Army, riding his horse neatly out of the city gate, followed closely by A large number of Liaodong cavalry, all soldiers and horses were bound by horses and wrapped in hooves, and they slowly turned westward in the night almost silently.
At the same time at the west gate of Xiangping City, the same scene was performed at the west gate of Xiangping City. It was Gongsun Kang who led his troops out of the city this time. His troops and horses were basically the same as those of Qi Cai, with two thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry in two groups. The armies did not join forces, but went their own way toward the Youzhou Army's camp. Among them, Qicai's troops were facing the Youzhou Army's right camp, while Gongsun Kang's troops headed straight towards the Youzhou Army's camp. Entered the Chinese army camp of Youzhou Army.
At a quarter of the hour, the sky is about to dawn, the stars and the moon are dim, and it has reached the darkest hour of the day. The huge Youzhou military camp is quiet, and only a few sentries and patrol posts are still at their posts. But it was just a matter of fact. It was obvious that after the great victory, the Youzhou Army's defense was extremely lax, and they did not even notice that a group of masked men in black were wandering around near the camp gate. It’s been a long time.
"The whole army attacks and kills!"
Gongsun Kang was very decisive. As soon as he received the report from the soldiers who went to scout, he did not hesitate at all. He led his troops forward in the dark and arrived less than 120 steps away from the Youzhou Army camp. When they were at a distance, they just let out a loud roar, and their troops rushed forward like a tidal wave.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack..."
When Gongsun Kang launched this attack, it sounded so powerful in the dark night that it was impossible for the sentries in the Youzhou Army camp not to be alerted. In an instant, the urgent horns and shouts suddenly became louder. It rang out, and for a moment, before Gongsun Kang's troops rushed to the camp, wild shouts also rang out from the front of the Youzhou Army's right camp, causing the huge Youzhou Army camp to become completely chaotic. .
"The thieves are unprepared. Rush in and kill all the Youzhou thieves. Kill them for me!"
Although it was dark and could not see clearly what was going on inside, it could be concluded from the extremely noisy noise that the Youzhou Army was not prepared at all. All the Liaodong Army soldiers who participated in the night attack suddenly arrived. At the same time, the two groups of masked men in black who were the first to lurk in front of the Youzhou Army camp also rushed to the fence in front of the camp, hacking away with sharp axes. He stood there, trying to cut down the obstructing fence before his own night attack army arrived.
"Fire the arrow!"
Although the fence of the Youzhou Army camp was thick, it could not withstand the efforts of so many masked men in black. In the end, a large section fell down. Soon, a large number of Liaodong Army soldiers rushed in through the gap. In the Youzhou Army camp, at first, the progress seemed to be extremely smooth, without encountering any interception at all, and they quickly rushed to the position near the middle camp. At this point, the Liaodong Army's good luck had run out, and then As a thunderous shout broke out, the sound of bowstrings suddenly became louder in the dark night.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The arrow rain was so dense that it had to be counted in units of tens of thousands. Poor Liaodong Army soldiers did not take any precautions at all. As soon as they were covered by such a rain of arrows, miserable howls started one after another. , a large number of infantry and cavalry were shot into hedgehogs, and the two Liaodong armies that attacked at night suddenly fell into chaos.
"No, I've fallen into a trap, retreat, retreat quickly!"
Long before the first hail of arrows came over, Gongsun Kang had noticed that something was wrong. He secretly controlled his speed and allowed his cavalry to pass by one after another, until the sound of arrows whistled loudly. Gongsun Kang quickly turned his horse and fled back. Because of this, even if the density of the arrow rain was astonishingly high, he was still unscathed, but his heart sank to the bottom. How could he dare to stay in such a dangerous place again? Dumbfounded, he shouted and rushed towards the gap in the fence, trying to lead the remaining troops to escape.
Gongsun Kang managed to escape by relying on his spiritual awakening, but Qi Cai, the leading general on the other side, was not so lucky. Qi Cai, who was bent on attacking, rushed to the forefront of the night attack army. What was the result? , naturally there will be no surprises. As soon as the first wave of arrows covered Qi Cai, his men and horses were shot into hedgehogs. He died without even letting out a miserable howl. As for his troops, Naturally, it fell into a state of collapse.
"Those who don't surrender will die, those who don't surrender will die..."
Before the two Liaodong night attack troops could wake up from the shock of the sudden attack, they saw a large number of torches suddenly lit up in the rear camp of the Youzhou Army, and countless Youzhou soldiers were roaring towards the chaos. The officers and soldiers of the Liaodong Army of the regiment rushed over, and there was a conflict. Both groups of Liaodong Army were killed, and they were all turned upside down. The casualties were countless.
"Kill, don't take away the traitor army!"
"Assault, assault!"
Just when Gongsun Kang finally led more than a thousand people to escape from the Youzhou Army camp, a fire dragon suddenly appeared on the left wing. It was Hei Yeming who came with three thousand cavalry. At the same time, Youzhou On the right wing of the army camp, Dadalgu also led three thousand cavalry to gallop out and intercept the remnants of Qi Cai's troops who had retreated from the right camp. There was also a burst of crazy killing. It was pity that Qi Cai's troops were so early because of Qi Cai's early attack. Killed in battle and without a leader, how could they be so ravaged by the Youzhou cavalry? How many people could kneel down and beg for mercy?
"This is Gongsun Kang, open the city gate quickly, open the city gate quickly!"
After struggling to fight off the rebel army, there were only more than two hundred soldiers left behind Gongsun Kang. As for the infantry, they were either dead or fled. Under such circumstances, Gongsun Kang could not He dared to turn back to rescue his soldiers, but because he was worried that the Youzhou army would follow his defeated generals into the city, he did not even dare to take Ximen back to the city, so he led his troops to the south gate. When he got to the city, he saw behind him It seemed that there were no pursuers. Gongsun Kang's frightened mood had just calmed down a little, but he did not dare to stay outside the city for too long. He quickly raised his voice and shouted towards the top of the city.
“Creak…bang!”
After using the light of the torch to see Gongsun Kang's true appearance, the generals on duty at the top of the city did not dare to show any slightest care. They quickly ordered their soldiers to open the city gate and lower the suspension bridge. At this point, Gongsun Kang's tense nerves were finally relaxed. Just when he was about to ride into the city, a sudden change occurred...
