The Invincible Sixth Prince
Chapter 1255 Perfect Raid
While Yun Zheng was making intensive arrangements, Jia Yao had already been hiding with his troops for several days.
While Jia Yao was patiently waiting for the enemy navy's movements, he was also brewing a bolder plan in his mind.
However, that more daring plan must be carried out only after the enemy's reinforcements have been destroyed.
Jia Yao collected his thoughts and turned to ask Qi Qi Ge, "Is there still no movement from the enemy troops in Longqing Prefecture?"
"no!"
Qi Qige replied: "The spies reported that the gates of Longqing Prefecture are tightly closed, and they have no intention of blocking our feint attack from the front."
"They are so patient!"
Jia Yao snorted, "Send more people to explore the direction of Black Turtle! Also, tell the troops in front to continue to build catapults in the camp! The bigger the noise, the better, but we must not let the enemy's spies get close and find out the true situation of the camp!"
The greater the movement on the front, the more it can paralyze the enemy.
She wanted to make the enemy firmly believe that they would attack Longqing Prefecture by force.
"Yes!"
Qi Qige immediately took the order and left.
As Qi Qige left, Shen Kuan came to report: "Madam Jiayao, we just captured a few people from the Li Dynasty who went into the mountains to collect herbs. We learned from them that there is a valley forty miles ahead with a relatively large town. Should we…"
"Need not!"
Jia Yao shook his head and interrupted Shen Kuan, "It's just a town. It won't make any difference whether we take it or not. If someone escapes, the enemy might guess our intentions!"
"We can ensure that no one escapes!"
Shen Kuan said: "Once we get there, Madam will have a better place to rest."
"You don't have to worry about me." Jia Yao understood Shen Kuan's good intentions. "In order to catch the white wolf, I slept in the open air for countless days and nights. I was a leader. I'm not as fragile as you think!"
The environment in the wild is really not that good.
But when it comes to marching and fighting, there aren't so many things to pay attention to.
Besides, it's much better here than on the grassland.
In half a month, there will be so many mosquitoes on the grassland that if you sleep in the open air on the grassland, the mosquitoes will probably bite you to death.
"All right!"
Seeing Jia Yao's insistence, Shen Kuan could only smile helplessly.
Jia Yao smiled and ordered: "Deal with all those people we captured! We can't leave any hidden dangers for the army!"
"Yes!"
Shen Kuan took the order.
At noon the next day, Jia Yao received the news brought back by the scout.
A large group of enemy troops had left Xuangui and were heading towards Longqing Prefecture to reinforce.
After receiving the news brought back by the scout, Jia Yao instantly perked up.
"How many troops does the enemy have?"
Jia Yao asked with burning eyes.
The scout replied: "Preliminary estimation, at least more than 10,000 people!"
More than 10,000 people?
Jia Yao was overjoyed.
This must be the main force of the enemy navy!
After lurking for so many days, I finally caught this big fish!
Suddenly, a cold light flashed in Jia Yao's eyes: "Come here, tell the army to get ready immediately! In two quarters of an hour, the whole army will set out!"
After giving the order, Jia Yao immediately ordered the scouts to intensify the investigation of the enemy's movements.
We finally managed to fish out this big fish, the navy. We must not let the enemy navy escape!
Half an hour later, all the war horses were fed with beans. At Jia Yao's command, the army set off immediately.
As dusk approached, the scout came to report again.
The enemy was resting near a village about fifty miles away from Xuangui. It seemed that they were planning to sleep outdoors like them, and there was no sign of setting up camp.
"Fifty miles?"
Upon hearing this, Jia Yao suddenly broke into a bright smile on his face.
It would probably take another half an hour for it to get dark. The enemy had already traveled fifty miles in such a short time. It must have been a forced march.
After such a march, the soldiers must be very tired.
If they attack at this time, the enemy will definitely not have much resistance!
As soon as he thought of this, Jia Yao immediately shouted: "Order the entire army, attack at full speed!"
As Jia Yao's order was passed down, the army's marching speed suddenly increased.
On the other side, the navy of the Le Dynasty was resting outside the village.
There are less than a hundred households living in this village, and they have no intention of staying overnight in the village.
There are thirteen thousand of them.
There is no way a village like this could accommodate all of them.
Instead of doing this, it would be better to rest near the village, and later have someone go to the village to find a few big pots, and make some summer heat-relief soup with the water from the stream, which would be good enough.
After the rapid march, these people were already exhausted.
They stopped to rest at this moment, and everyone took off their armor, sitting or lying down to allow their sore bodies to recover.
Some people couldn't wait to eat the dried food with the water in the water bags, while others picked up firewood and lit bonfires under the general's order.
Just when everyone was resting after a day of forced march, a rumbling sound suddenly sounded in their ears.
Along with the sound, the ground beneath their feet seemed to begin to tremble.
This sudden movement made many Le Dynasty soldiers who had never seen thousands of horses galloping unable to react and they just stood there stupidly.
Even the general leading the army was stunned for a moment.
Is this an earthquake?
But the general soon reacted.
This is not an earthquake, it's clearly a galloping of thousands of horses!
"Enemy attack!"
"Quick, put on your armor! Quick!"
"Form a battle array! Form a battle array..."
The general came to his senses and roared loudly.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack..."
As the general roared, those around him who heard the sound also started roaring along.
It was not until the repeated sounds of "enemy attack" were heard that the resting soldiers finally reacted and began to put on their armor in a panic.
However, in the panic, many people couldn't even put on their armor.
Now everyone just wants to put on armor quickly, and no one helps those around them put on armor.
The originally well-trained naval forces fell into chaos.
At the same time, a large group of cavalry appeared in their sight.
Looking at the cavalry rushing towards them with murderous intent, the soldiers, who were already panicked, became even more panicked.
However, there is no point in panicking now.
As the enemy cavalry approached, a rain of arrows directly covered them.
"what……"
"help me……"
"Run! Run quickly..."
Under the rain of arrows, many Le Dynasty soldiers who had not even put on their armor fell down instantly.
Immediately afterwards, a second round of arrow rain came down, and again a large number of Le Dynasty soldiers fell.
"kill!"
Immediately afterwards, the cavalry in the front went around to the two wings and launched a ranged shooting attack, while the large group of cavalry in the rear rushed in with murderous intent, madly reaping the lives of the Le Dynasty soldiers.
Jia Yao held a strong bow and scanned the battlefield with a cold gaze.
A general of the Le Dynasty was about to chop at the oncoming cavalry with a broadsword when a sharp arrow pierced his neck with a "whoosh".
Then, the cavalry held up their muskets and shot through his body...
