Chapter 178 Night Attack

Soon after Fusu got rid of the spy sent by Zhang Han to disturb the morale of the army, the food shipped from Sanchuan County arrived. At this time, the problem caused by the lack of food in the Fusu army was solved, but Fusu will

This news was sealed very tightly, and the impression given to the Qin army in the city was that the Fusu army had been short of food for several times.

The army was about to retreat within a few days. Then Fusu cleverly spread the news about the people from Shangjun City among the army. The situation in Shangjun was in danger and the morale of the army was in chaos. Fusu was not allowed to let the Qin army in the city know about the news that the people from Shangjun City were showing their heads to the public.

, this made the Qin army defending the city even more confident that the Fusu army would retreat in a few days.

But secretly, Fusu had already prepared his troops, preparing to take down Xianyang with his own army once the Qin army fell into the trap. But for some unknown reason, those Qin soldiers had no intention of leaving the city. Apparently they just wanted to

Fusu retreated, but they didn't care about going out of the city to defeat the enemy at all. This puzzled Fusu and Meng Tian, ​​who was concerned about their coming out of the city.

It turned out that when the news reached Xianyang, the people who got the news concealed it and did not let Ziying know about it. In the past few days of hard fighting, not only the people who were forced to go up the wall to defend the city could no longer support it, but also those who were forced to defend the city.

Their Qin soldiers are also exhausted. Now they just hope that the Fusu army will retreat as soon as possible, so that they don't have to fight or bleed. As for taking advantage of Fusu's

When the army is in trouble, they dare not even think about it. Firstly, these soldiers know that their combat power cannot compete with the Fusu army. Secondly, even if they have the upper hand, some people will die.

If it was in the hands of the enemy, he might be one of them. So those people tacitly forgot the news, and Ziying didn't even know about these two things.

The strategy set by Fusu, Zhang Liang and others was "broken" by the Qin army, and they didn't know it yet. However, once the food from Dangdang and other places arrived, the Fusu army would still try their best to attack the city.

Yes, this is what the defenders in the city don't know. There is a temporary confrontation between Xianyang City and the city, and they are just waiting for the arrival of food.

However, great changes have taken place under the city of Shangjun. This change was unexpected by Fusu, because he was not in Shangjun and did not know the situation there. Zhang Han was also unexpected by Zhang Han, because he had no idea that Fusu had transferred the flying pigeon hundreds of years later.

Passing letters was used in this era, so when he saw that he had surrounded Shangjun City on all sides and had not let anyone out of the city, he thought that no reinforcements would come to Shangjun. Even if they came, they would only be deceived by himself and hurriedly brought them with him.

Fusu's army came to the rescue.

But at this time, in the northeast of him, an army of more than 10,000 people under the leadership of Meng Yi was approaching him. This army was painstakingly trained by Meng Yi in Beidi County and fought on the plains.

Their ability is not inferior to that of the Huns. Meng Yi has since surrendered to

After taking over Fusu, he has been guarding Beidi County. He has not been able to catch up with several major battles. Although he has never complained to anyone, he always wants to show off his skills in his heart. Perhaps it is because of his

Because his elder brother Meng Tian is too outstanding, he has been obsessed with it since he was a child.

Yi is not much valued by others, but in fact, in terms of military skills, he is not much worse than Meng Tian. The only advantage of being less valued is that when Hu Hai wanted to get rid of all the people who were leaning towards Fusu, he

I was able to escape and come to Shangjun. But this time

But he will not be silent again. He will use this battle to let Fusu, Mengtian, and everyone in the world know that Meng Yi is not an incompetent general, not a general who only knows how to defend the city. So he will make Beidi County

The most elite soldiers and horses were brought outside Shangjun City.

In the northwest were ten thousand people led by Zhou Xing. After several battles with the Xiongnu, Zhou Xing had made great progress in using troops. This time he discussed with Meng Yi and Chen Ping in the city.

, decided to besiege on three sides. Looking at the troops under his command that had become more elite due to fighting with the Huns for days, Zhou Xing was full of confidence. He was confident that in this battle, the invading Qin army would be as good as the Huns before.

The same comes and goes.

After Chen Ping received the news that the two armies had arrived at the rear of Zhang Han's army, he agreed with them on a time for a joint attack and a sign to identify each other, which was a piece of white cloth wrapped around his left arm. The time was set at

Three days later at night, using Zhou's marching army to raise fire as a signal, the three armies attacked at the same time, catching the Qin army by surprise.

Three days passed quickly. At dusk, Chen Ping had already fed and drank enough for the soldiers, and then ordered them to dress neatly. Only two thousand of them were allowed to guard the city, while he and the rest waited quietly.

At the city gate, as soon as the signal of attack came from Zhouxing, he immediately opened the door and led the army to rush over.

The soldier on guard in the city suddenly saw a little red light shining in the darkness in the northwest. The red light waved in the air several times, which was the agreed signal, so he immediately went down to the city to report to Chen Ping. As soon as Chen Ping knew

After hearing the news, he immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and said: "Open the city gate, and the whole army will cover up the enemy until they reach the Qin army camp before launching an attack."

With deliberate and careful movements, the city gate was opened silently, and more than 10,000 people filed out, quietly moving towards the direction of Zhang Han's garrison. Everyone's left arm was wrapped with white cloth, which stood out in the darkness.

, and they

His right hand was holding various weapons tightly, ready to slash at the invading enemy. Half a mile away from Zhang Han's camp, everyone had already seen a few lights, which were bonfires that had not been extinguished in the camp. Chen Ping knew that he would go up again

Will know before

They were noticed by the Qin people's sentries, so they made a gesture to the soldiers. Several crossbowmen immediately strode up, aiming their crossbows at the dozing sentries, and followed by "swish".

Sound, several crossbows are accurate

The shot was accurately shot in the vital parts of the several sentries. They only let out a dull cry and fell to the ground. When one of the sentries fell, he just hit the brazier in front of him, knocking the brazier over, and let out a cry.

A sound.

"Who is there?" a voice asked, but it was the patrolling Qin soldiers who heard the sound and came over to check. As they walked over, they opened their mouths and asked. But before he could say a second voice, an arrow had already hit him.

chest, he groaned and fell on his back. But at this time, Qin Bing who was with him had already realized that the situation was different.

Miao, hurriedly opened his mouth and shouted: "Oh no, come here, there is an enemy sneak attack on our army!" The voice spread far and wide in the quiet night, and it seemed loud. For a moment, the entire Qin camp exploded, and some

The Qin soldiers rushed out of the camp with their weapons and asked, "Where is the enemy? Where is the enemy?"

Chen Ping was not polite. He waved the sword in his hand and said: "Come on, take advantage of the chaos of the Qin army to disrupt their position. The crossbowmen should pay attention to shooting those holding torches or those standing on high places. Be sure to shoot them."

They shot and killed them at the first opportunity!" During night battles, commanding is not as convenient as during the day. In addition, the Qin army was suddenly attacked, so the generals must rein in the troops, otherwise it will easily lead to a situation of killing each other.

This time we need soldiers

Once the pawns are restrained, the daytime method will no longer work. It is difficult to use messengers to be effective in chaotic situations. If you raise the flag, you cannot see it in the dark, so there are only two ways to command: torches and musical instruments.

The Qin army could not find this instrument for a while, so the quickest way was to use the torch. But this was also the easiest way for the enemy to judge and deal with it, so Chen Ping ordered the soldiers to kill him and at the same time, he

received this order.

As expected by Chen Ping, the Qin army was suddenly attacked. The first reaction of the generals was to defend their camps and prevent their soldiers from disordering, so they lit torches one after another. Under the shouts of all the generals,

They danced continuously, causing the soldiers to return to their own troops. But at this time, crossbow arrows broke through the air, because those people had weapons in their hands.

The torch was lit, so it became the best target in the dark. It could be said that one shot was accurate. Those people fell to the ground, and some torches were crushed by their owners after they fell to the ground, or were extinguished, or

This caused the corpse to emit a burning smell, and some torches were dropped elsewhere, such as on the tent, because the person could not hold them firmly when he died.

Those camps were all made of cloth or leather, and it was very dry in autumn. They burned quickly when exposed to an open fire, and soon the entire camp was in flames. Qin Bing didn't know what to do for a while.

Okay, look at the intensity of the fire. If you don't save it, it will easily burn to the place where the food is stored. Then the trouble will be big. But at this time, the enemy

They have already attacked. Because these Qin soldiers woke up hastily from their sleep and did not put on their armor. Some of them still had empty hands and no weapons. When they encountered the enemy who had been prepared for a long time, they were in a state of panic.

The sound of burning tents, the shouts of soldiers fighting, and the screams of soldiers dying suddenly spread in the Qin army camp.

At this time, Chen Ping had led his soldiers to rush back and forth among the Qin army for a while. Those Qin soldiers who had no command and were just spinning around like headless flies were quickly wiped out by them. When Chen Ping

When they wanted to kill the central army in one go, cut down Zhang Han's banner, and completely demoralize the Qin army, a well-dressed Qin army stopped in front of them. The person in front of them was Zhang Han, the chief general of the Qin army.

It turned out that Zhang Han already knew about the chaos when it broke out, and he also knew that he could not get all the sergeants to obey the command at this time, so he had no choice but to abandon the front army and personally issue orders to the middle and rear armies.

He gathered the troops together and rushed forward, just in time to see Chen Ping leading his army. As the saying goes, enemies are extremely jealous when they meet. Although Zhang Han didn't know who was coming,

But he was sure that they were sneak attacks on his camp, so with a wave of his hand he ordered the sergeants to rush forward and attack Chen Ping and his soldiers head-on. The two armies were inextricably killed for a while, although Zhang Han had the upper hand in numbers.
