"Empire Hegemony" Chapter 124
In the cold and dark night, the campfire of the Dynasty army camp was burning like a thunderbolt, and the snoring sounded one after another in the army tent.
The soldiers of the Imperial Guard fought from sunrise to nightfall. They were exhausted and slept deeply. They needed to recharge their batteries and face tomorrow's battle with the best posture.
These well-born Imperial Guard soldiers quickly matured in the brutal fighting.
This is like a knockout match for the survival of the fittest, and those who can return to the camp alive are the best among them.
At this moment, the corpses of those weak Imperial Guard soldiers were already frozen and stiff, lying without dignity in the field outside the city wall of Qingyang Mansion.
Unless they win this battle, they might be able to collect the bodies of the Janissary soldiers who died in battle, so that at least they can be buried in peace.
If they lost this battle, the dead Janissary soldiers would become food for vultures and wild dogs.
Those Imperial Guard soldiers who used to gamble and have fun at night now no longer have the mind to have fun. What they think about now is how to have a good rest.
The Fourth Prince's practice of fighting instead of training is quite effective. At least these living Imperial Guard soldiers have learned to rest well and have plenty of physical strength to improve their survival rate in the brutal battle.
The brightly lit dynasty army camp was extraordinarily dazzling in the wilderness, and patrols in strong armor passed by from time to time, and the weapons and armor made a crisp sound of collision.
In the night near the Dynasty Army camp, black shadows appeared quietly like ghosts.
This group of soldiers who appeared near the Dynasty Army's camp wore red armbands uniformly. They belonged to the military police unit under the command of Military Judge Li Lang.
The gendarmerie is the most elite unit under Chen Ziang's command. All soldiers are carefully selected and loyal to Chen Ziang.
They are responsible for cleaning up military discipline on weekdays, and they also charge into the battle during wartime. Their combat style is tough, which makes the soldiers of Qinghe Army particularly afraid.
It's just that Chen Zi'ang has always used the gendarmerie as his trump card, and he usually won't let them take it easily.
But now the rest of the troops in Chen Ziang's hands have their own missions, so he can only let the gendarmerie come out to carry out the missions.
"My lord, all the secret whistles have been resolved."
The military judge Li Lang and others hid in the darkness, and soon a nimble soldier Mao Yao came back, moved to Li Lang's side, and reported in a low voice.
These returned soldiers smelled like blood, and they had just silently killed the secret sentry placed by the Dynasty army outside the camp.
"Do it!"
Li Lang raised his head and stared at the sentry of the Dynasty army walking on the sentry tower in the distance, and lowered his voice to give the order to attack.
Amidst the creaking sound, the hard bows were drawn one by one, and the sharp mace arrows hit the bowstrings.
The sentinel of the dynasty army on the sentry tower vaguely heard the abnormal noise in the darkness, but the sky was too dark in the second half of the night. He rubbed his eyes, but his vision was still dark.
"Phew!"
Suddenly there was a piercing whistling sound in the darkness, and a spiked arrow suddenly appeared.
"Pfft!"
With the dull sound of piercing into the flesh, the sharp mace pierced through the throat of the dynasty army sentry.
The dynasty army sentry swayed, his head went black, and he fell down from the sentry tower more than ten meters high.
Several soldiers of the dynasty army standing guard with spears were also startled by the loud plop, and suddenly lost sleepiness.
They subconsciously turned their heads and looked towards the place where the sound came from, just in time to see the sentinel whose life and death were unknown.
"Shoot! Swoosh! Shoo"
Before the sentries could figure out what happened, there was a piercing whistling sound in the darkness.
"Puff!"
"ah!"
These sentries didn't even make any reaction, they were shot into a sieve by the dense arrow rain, and nailed to the ground.
Many military tents near the camp also suffered disaster. Sharp spiked arrows pierced through the military tents, and many soldiers went to see Lord Hades while still asleep.
"Enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
Under the intensive attack of spiked arrows, the sentries and patrols of the Dynasty Army were killed and wounded, and there were mournful shouts in the camp.
"Kill!"
in dynastyWhen the sentinel roared loudly, there was also a loud cry of killing in the darkness, and a large number of military police of the Qinghe Army rushed towards the camp of the Dynasty Army like tigers uncaged.
"The bandit army is coming!"
"Quick, get up!"
The quiet Dynasty army camp suddenly boiled like a frying pan dripping with water.
In the chaos, countless disheveled soldiers rushed out of the military tent with swords in their hands, and hurriedly lined up amidst the yelling of the officers.
There are also many dynasty soldiers who have never encountered such a thing at night. For a while, they ran around like headless flies, exacerbating the chaos in the camp.
"What's going on outside?!"
The Fourth Prince was sleeping soundly, but was awakened by the noise outside, and his face was full of confusion.
"Your Highness, it seems that bandits have attacked the camp, and the front camp is already in chaos."
The dedicated chief guard led a group of elite guards to guard around the fourth prince's military tent. When he heard the shouts of killing in the distance, he concluded that it was the Qinghe army's night attack.
After the fourth prince was stunned, his face was ashen. He hadn't troubled the Qinghe army yet, but the Qinghe army actually started the attack first, it was simply too arrogant!
"Order the battalions not to be on strict alert, not to act rashly, and order Yang Hao to lead his troops to support the front battalion!"
In such a dark night, there was a sudden attack. Without a clear understanding of the situation, once a large-scale deployment of troops was made, it would be easy to blow up the camp in chaos.
After all, the fourth prince is also a man who knows how to fight. Although there is a fire in his heart, he can only hold back.
Yang Hao is also a heroic general of the dynasty army. After he received the military order from the fourth prince, he personally led a cavalry to reinforce the front battalion.
Seeing that Yang Hao led the cavalry arrived, Li Lang, who had already led the gendarmerie troops into the front camp of the Dynasty Army, chose to retreat without hesitation.
These gendarmerie troops are also elite troops. They are as quiet as virgins, they come and go quickly, and they are all withdrawn in the blink of an eye. They all fled into the darkness, leaving behind a messy dynasty. Army camp.
"These bastards, I'm going to tear them up!"
Seeing the flames of the front battalion soaring into the sky, with casualties everywhere, Yang Hao also became angry, cursed angrily, and led the cavalry to chase after him.
But not too far after chasing, the cavalry in front were tripped by the horse rope one after another, and screamed one after another.
"Kill!"
In the darkness, there was another shout of killing like a mountain roar and a tsunami, and Yang Hao's complexion also changed drastically.
"Withdraw! Withdraw quickly!"
The dark Yang Hao didn't know how many Qinghe troops were ambushing in the darkness, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he immediately turned his horse's head and retreated.
But what Yang Hao didn't expect was that just after he led his troops back to the camp, the overwhelming rain of arrows attacked them again. He was caught off guard, and many soldiers of the dynasty who were rescuing the wounded were killed and injured again.
Li Lang and the others are like annoying flies. With the help of the cover of darkness, they always surround the camp of the Dynasty army, pounce on them and bite from time to time.
The fourth prince and the others had already dressed neatly, and all of them had arrived at the main camp of the Chinese army. They were extremely uncomfortable facing Li Lang's style of play.
"Your Highness, I am willing to lead an attack and destroy them!"
Seeing Li Lang and the others approaching to shoot arrows arrogantly, many grumpy generals of the dynasty army could no longer hold back their anger.
"This must be a conspiracy by the bandits. Maybe they have ambushed heavy soldiers outside. We must not be fooled."
"Yes, the bandits know they are not our opponents, so they only dare to play this kind of conspiracy!"
"As long as we strengthen our vigilance, the bandit army's conspiracy will naturally fail."
The fourth prince didn't know the situation in the dark, so for the sake of being cautious, he finally chose to stay still.
When everyone's attention was drawn to the vicinity of the Dynasty Army camp, it was in the south of the city.
Under the cover of night, more than 20,000 Qinghe troops rushed towards Qingyang Mansion, each carrying a bag of grain. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
