Chapter 662: Snowstorm and Cold Blade (14)

The moon is dark and the wind is high, the sky is full of murders and arson. Tonight, not only that, there was also countless falling snow. The snow took advantage of the wind, and demons danced all over the sky. It was difficult to see beyond a few feet. Water dripped outside and turned into ice. Inside the big tent, even with the firewood burning, it was bone-chillingly cold. Still passing through the tent and crawling through the felt blanket, the Donghu soldiers trembled.

Compared with the soldiers who were armed to the teeth and conquered the East, the Donghu people were really poor. Although they did not lack fur, their exposed faces and hands were so cold that they cracked and had bloody cuts. Chilblains were what the Donghu soldiers faced. The biggest problem.

Tongwanchengbuli was not the main force of the Eastern Marching Army, and the commander of the Eastern Marching Army was stationed in the Pioneer City dozens of miles away. Shooting people first, shooting horses, and capturing thieves first, capture the king. This was Yan Qi's idea. He wants to concentrate on attacking Pioneer City. As long as Gaoyuan is captured, the battle of Hetao will be decided. If he divides his troops too much and attacks in all directions, it will be absolutely impossible to capture all these strongholds when spring comes tomorrow. of.

Since Tongwan City is not the focus, the Donghu soldiers stationed here to monitor do not have much fighting spirit. More importantly, the Donghu soldiers are still convinced that they are invincible in the field. The Eastern Expeditionary Army huddled within the city walls and fought with them. There is still the strength to fight, but if you dare to go out of the city to fight in the wild, you are courting death.

Now that Donghu has strong military strength, the Dongzheng Army will naturally not rush out of the city to challenge. With this thought, the vigilance of Aziz, the Donghu general stationed here, was naturally reduced to the lowest level. Although he also sent sentries, they were only routine. Most of the watchtowers in the camp were concentrated opposite Tongwang City. And it’s hard to say how useful it can be in such a winter.

Although the Donghu people are brave, they have won seven or eight out of ten battles with the Central Plains. However, when it comes to the conspiracies and tricks on the battlefield, it is difficult for them to predict the enemy's opportunities. The back of the neck of the Central Plains people. When Gao Yuan decided to fight the battle with the Donghu people in Hetao. Everything revolved around this strategic purpose, and Yan Peng started preparations from the first day he entered Tongwan City.

One of the most important things is to dig a tunnel from Tongwan City to more than ten miles outside the city. The excavated soil is used to strengthen the city wall and cover the roofs in the city. Although Donghu Sentinel has been spying on Tongwan City, Wancheng's intelligence, but they never imagined that it was under their feet when they were running on the wilderness. A group of soldiers were wielding hoes and shovels, digging into the soil to open a passage that would send the Donghu people to hell.

This passage leads to the back of the Donghu people's camp. Here is a pine forest.

Luo Weiran stood at the end of the tunnel. In front of him, only the last thin layer of soil was left. He pulled out the knife, took a deep breath, inserted the knife into the wet soil in front of him, and made a chirp sound. The knife came out easily, and with a turn of his wrist, a large ball of soil fell off, and a biting chill penetrated directly from outside the cave. Luo Weiran couldn't help but shuddered.

Along with this cold war, he was extremely excited, and he turned to look at a soldier beside him.

"Well done, you are worthy of the guy who has been digging graves for half his life. This tunnel line is measurable and extremely accurate. After this battle, I will take credit for you, and from now on, you will be the special battalion directly under our division." "The battalion commander, the First Army has established a special brigade, we can't fall behind."

"Thank you, sir!" The soldier's eyes sparkled, he picked up the shovel and began to dig out the hole in a few clicks. This guy named Wu Hai had been engaged in the disgraceful business of tomb robbing for the first half of his life, but he never thought that his profession would... It actually shone brightly in this war. This tunnel, which stretches for more than ten miles, is the masterpiece he led a group of soldiers in the past year.

Luo Weiran ducked out of the hole. Chill instantly enveloped his whole body, but along with the chill was an incomparable heat in his heart. Not far in front of him, through the gaps between the pine trees, he could clearly see I could see the lights in Donghu camp. The two sides were actually only a few hundred meters apart.

The soldiers of the Eastern Expedition Army came out of the hole one after another and formed a neat formation behind Luo Weiran.

"Clean the pine forest and be careful of spies." As soon as he came out of the cave, Luo Weiran's first order was to ensure the secrecy of this operation.

"Clean weapons."

"Liu Yimin, after the attack is launched, you lead your troops to attack the stables of the opponent's cavalry camp. No matter what method you use, disperse the horses for me. I will leave their cavalry with no horses to ride on. I would like to take a look at these The Donghu people, who claim to be invincible in the world, are still unparalleled in their ferocity even without their horses and their feet on the ground."

"yes!"

"Kong Ergou! You lead your troops and attack the Chinese army's tent. Don't worry about anything else. If you can kill Aziz with one blow, the first victory in this battle will be yours."

"After the other troops rushed into the opponent's camp, they immediately set fire to me and caused chaos. When Commander Yan in the city saw the fire, he would immediately lead his troops to come out and attack from both sides. We want to defeat Aziz. , let me leave his three thousand cavalry and five thousand infantry under Tongwan City," Luo Weiran said solemnly.

"Yes!" Many generals bowed in unison.

This time, Luo Weiran brought out a total of 5,000 soldiers from the city. It took Luo Weiran an hour just to crawl out of the cave and assemble.

Looking up at the sky, Luo Weiran suddenly slashed down with his big hand, "Every unit, attack!"

Countless arrows shot out from the pine forest, a distance of hundreds of meters, and they arrived in an instant. From the pine forest, local materials were harvested. The felled pine trees as thick as the mouth of a bowl were just the branches that were cut off hastily, and there were still knots on them. Carrying the ice chips, they were carried by the soldiers and rushed towards the fence in front of them. When countless tree poles hit the fence heavily, and a section of the fence several miles long collapsed, five thousand soldiers of the Eastern Expeditionary Army A loud roar broke out from the ground, and they descended the mountain and charged into the Donghu people's camp like tigers.

In an instant, the entire camp fell into chaos. Fires broke out everywhere, and the sound of killings was loud. Every tent was overturned and set on fire. Countless Donghu soldiers who were awakened from their sleep had not yet figured out the situation. He was stabbed by Dou Tou, cutting him to the ground.

Liu Yimin's troops were like sharp spears, charging straight at the opponent's cavalry camp. The Donghu cavalry were indeed brave and reacted quickly. When Liu Yimin arrived, many soldiers had already rushed to the horse corridor and were preparing to He led out his war horse and rode to fight.

"Crossbow!" Liu Yimin yelled, and countless crossbow arrows hit the horse gallery head-on like rain. The screams of people and the neighing of horses immediately rang out.

"Fight in!"

Liu Yimin took the lead and rushed into the horse gallery. He slashed with the knife in his hand and cut off the railings of the horse gallery. Then he rushed into the horse gallery and stabbed at the horse gallery with his knife. The horses immediately started to frighten and neighed. Rushed out before the railing collapsed.

"Drive the horse and charge forward!" Liu Yimin shouted loudly, and more than a thousand of his men chased behind the frightened horse and followed it all the way.

On Tongwan City, Yan Peng, who had been extremely nervous, finally saw the sudden flames rising into the sky from the Donghu camp. He couldn't help but be overjoyed, "Open the city gate, open the city gate, the second army, the whole army will attack!"

The gates of Tongwan City were opened wide, and the five thousand soldiers who had been left behind in the city and had been prepared for the battle shouted, rushed out, took steps, and rushed madly towards the camp in the distance with flames soaring into the sky.

"Quick, the faster the better, forget about the formation, spread your legs, move forward, move forward!"

Aziz woke up from his sleep. His tent was naturally much better than that of ordinary soldiers. The double-layer tent was warm enough, and the firewood inside made the tent feel as warm as spring. Therefore, he could sleep well. It's very fragrant. In his opinion, this battle is easy for him. He only needs to contain the Eastern Expedition Army in Tongwan City.

Therefore, he was suddenly attacked. He rushed out of the tent with bare feet. When he looked at the fire burning in the back camp, he couldn't help but feel confused. There was a vast plain around Tongwan City, and it was impossible to hide soldiers and horses anywhere. When they were stationed in the camp, there would be routine searches and sentinels every day. How could the Eastern Expeditionary Army attack the camp come out from behind?

Standing with bare feet in front of the big tent, he heard the thunderous shouts of killing, the galloping of frightened horses, saw the light of the sky, and saw that the inside of his camp was like a pot of messed up porridge. He couldn't help but despair. Turning his head to look at the direction of Tongwan City, countless torches were rushing towards him.

It’s over! Aziz thought desperately.

"General, the whole camp has collapsed!" When the Zhengdong Army from Tongwan City broke through the Donghu camp from the front, the situation was irreversible. Aziz's soldiers finally controlled it. After gathering some horses, they swarmed up and put Aziz, who was in despair, on the back of the horse, protecting him and breaking out. Although there was no saddle on the horse at this time, for them, there was Without a saddle, the difference is not big. At this time, it is not a battle, but an escape.

Not long after Aziz escaped, Kong Ergou killed the Chinese army tent with one strike. When the soldiers came out of the Chinese army tent in disappointment, Kong Ergou paused in annoyance. This is such a shame. Gone so fast. Looking at the soldiers under his command, he roared: "What are you still doing here? Go kill the enemy. If you can't catch Aziz, then catch more dogs. It's better than empty-handed!"

When the sky was dimming, the Donghu camp, which was still majestic yesterday, had been turned into ruins. The green smoke curled up and was blown away by the strong wind without a trace before it rose. On the entire battlefield, Donghu people were lying dead, and soldiers from the Eastern Expeditionary Army were cleaning the battlefield. All the injured Donghu soldiers were patched up, and only those who were intact would be strung up with a rope. After the battle was over, they It is the best kind of coolie. For Luo Weiran, who has been a coolie, there seems to be an invisible pleasure in repaying others with his own way. (To be continued...) ()
