Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 761 The Battle of the Night Attack
As Tu Qiuju was devoured by the flames, the original rammed earth city walls also became brittle under the baking of the flames, and many places collapsed on their own.

It can be said that this ancient city has completely lost its meaning of existence, and it cannot continue to be a stronghold for garrisoning troops. Tai Shici ordered people to tear down the not-so-thick city wall, and turned the tuqiu into a piece of flat land, so it would not be too difficult. More attention to it.

Next, Tai Shici first led his troops back to his own camp, and then sent a large number of scouts to investigate the defense situation of Yuan Tan and Zang Ba's army in Liangfu County, as well as the situation of Liu Bei's army who had evacuated Tu Qiuju.

It's a pity that Tai Shici didn't know where Huang Zhongjun had gone, so he also sent some scouts to look for Huang Zhongjun near Juping County, and waited for Huang Zhongjun to attack Yuan Tan, Zang Ba, and Liu Bei's coalition forces.

However, when Tai Shici was looking for a fighter, Yuan Tan, Zang Ba, and Liu Bei seemed unwilling to just defend and not attack. Therefore, at night, Zhu Weijun, who camped in the western area of ​​Mengshan, also encountered There was a night raid.

I don't know when Yuan Tan and Zang Ba had secretly mobilized four or five thousand troops. They made a circle from Liangfu County, and took advantage of Zang Ba's army's advantage of the bandits from Mount Tai to search for mountain roads in Mengshan and quietly sneaked to Zhu Weijun. near the camp.

After it was almost dark, bonfires were lit everywhere in Zhu Weijun's camp that was arranged like plum blossoms, which inevitably made the camp very obvious in the mountains.

Several bandit spies in Zang Ba's army saw Zhu Weijun's unprepared appearance from a high place, so they gave him to the generals of Zang Ba's army, Yin Li, Chang Xi and Yuan Tan, who led the attack. Zhang Nan, his general, sent the message that troops could be sent.

For a while, Zang Ba's Taishan bandit army and some mountain militia soldiers selected by Yuan Tan from the Qingzhou army moved towards Zhu Weijun's direction under the night sky.

Led by bandit soldiers who were familiar with the terrain of the mountain roads on Mengshan Mountain, this sneak attack coalition army reached the outskirts of Zhu Weijun's camp before midnight.

Afterwards, nearly a hundred elite bandit soldiers from the Taishan bandit army took the lead to touch the periphery of a military camp in Zhu Weijun's camp. Obviously, they were going to go there first to check the situation, and get rid of Zhu Weijun's night sentry, so that the soldiers behind Can rush over.

These more than a hundred people came to the wall of the military stronghold under the cover of night like tigers and wolves running, and then a few people climbed up the wall with their hands on their hands, and they easily touched the inside of the military stronghold.

Soon they separated a few people and climbed up the two sentry towers near the camp wall. They silently killed the three sentry guards who were in charge of night duty. Then, under the shaking of the torch, they informed People can attack.

So Yi Li, Chang Xi, and Zhang Nan led four or five thousand soldiers, and rushed over here quickly.

It's just that the hundred or so Taishan bandit soldiers came over smoothly before, but now that so many soldiers rushed over, they somehow touched some traps on the way.

Suddenly, some people's feet were pierced and injured by bamboo thorns, some fell into the cave, and some were hung up in the air, completely revealing their traces of the night raiders who originally wanted to hide their tracks.

At this time, alarm bells were ringing in Zhu Weijun's stronghold. The Zhu Weijun patrolling soldiers in charge of night duty detected the news of the enemy's attack, and quickly informed the generals on night duty.

As a result, the entire Zhuwei army village was gradually getting ready for the battle before the enemy's attack came.

At the same time, the elite bandits from Baidotai Mountain who had sneaked into Zhu Weijun's camp originally planned to sneak into the depths of Zhu Weijun's camp and set fire to it after killing the sentries in the arrow tower and calling for the army from behind to attack.

But before they had sneaked far into Zhu Weijun's stronghold, suddenly, a crossbow arrow was shot out from several tents in front of them.

Before these Taishan thieves could react, they had already died under the continuous crossbow arrows. After they were all overturned, nearly a hundred sword and shield fighters came out of these tents to check their bodies. corpse.

It turned out that Tai Shici and Xu Shu had long been prepared for night attacks, so each military camp was set up according to a special route. It can be said that the enemy troops who entered Zhu Weijun's camp often had to follow different roads to a place where there was an ambush Area.

There are one hundred crossbowmen and one hundred sword shieldmen who are on guard at night. All places that enter their field of vision are illuminated by bonfires, so if there are foreign enemies, they will naturally be able to spot them at the first time.

What's more, Bao Long and Chen Ying, who were born as hunters, also set up alarm bells and traps outside the army village and in the inner peripheral area. Therefore, when these Taishan thieves climbed over the wall and entered Zhu Weijun village in the dark night, they had already triggered the alarm. Alarm bells, let these crossbowmen and sword shieldmen who are ambushing at night get ready.

It's just that the sentry on the arrow tower couldn't notify for a while, but as a sentry, he failed to detect the enemy's attack.

So tonight Zang Ba and Yuan Tan sent people to attack at night. Although Zhu Weijun didn't realize it until they triggered the alarm, but now the various camps have begun to mobilize preparations for a counterattack.

Of course, it will take some time for Zhu Weijun to wake up from a deep sleep, and then gather to prepare for the battle.

Therefore, after the one hundred crossbowmen and one hundred sword shieldmen in ambush killed the sneaking Taishan bandits, they quickly ran towards the camp wall, and then some crossbowmen climbed up the arrow tower, and some people Climbing up and pushing the mobile arrow rest, he began to shoot crossbow arrows at the enemy troops charging outside.

Outside Zhu Weijun's stronghold, Yin Li, Chang Xi, and Zhang Nan led the troops to hide at a location about 2000 steps away from the army's stronghold in order not to be noticed by the sentries on Zhu Weijun's arrow tower. There is no way to fully let go of the speed in the dark night.

What's more, during this process, some soldiers encountered traps set by Zhu Weijun or something, which slowed down their charge a lot.

Therefore, when they rushed to the front of Zhu Weijun's camp, there were already crossbowmen here to block them, and there were also sword and shield hands leaning against the camp wall to guard, and some sword and shield hands picked up their spears and went out through the gap in the camp Stabbing and stabbing to prevent the enemy troops outside from approaching and pushing against the wall of the village.

"Go! Kill!"

The surprise attack at night turned into a strong attack. The Zang Bajun and Yuan Tanjun who rushed over carried wooden pillars and rushed into the wall of the camp, trying to make a breach and rush in.

As long as they can enter the camp, they can cause a large amount of chaos before Zhu Weijun reacts, and if they start a fire, they can naturally burn Zhu Weijun's camp to a lot of losses, and they can be regarded as completing their night attack mission...
