The night was deep and silent, pitch black and no fingers could be seen, only a few bonfires were still burning cracklingly at the pass of Yingzui Peak.
"Will they really attack at night?"
Behind a crossbar, two Qinghe Army brothers were wrapped in battle robes and cats in the darkness, staring vigilantly at the mountain road on the south side.
"Your Excellency has already passed down the message that the militiamen will not be willing to just throw away the mountain pass like this. They are at least 50% sure that they will counterattack in the dark." A soldier lowered his voice.
"It's already midnight, they won't come."
Another soldier looked at the dark mountain pass and couldn't help guessing.
"The general said they will come, and they will definitely come." A soldier said confidently.
"What if the general guesses wrong?"
"Do you want to bet?"
"If you bet, just bet, whoever is afraid of whom."
"Shhh¡ª"
When the two of them were talking in a low voice, a soldier suddenly fell silent.
Another soldier also looked vigilantly towards the mountain road on the south side, but it was so dark that he couldn't see anything.
"Here they come."
The soldier who had been staring at the darkness became serious.
"But I can't see anything."
"I smell it."
The mountain wind blows from the south, and the cool mountain wind is mixed with some sweaty smell. The brother with a good nose thinks there are people over there.
"What if I smell it wrong?"
"Crack¡ª¡ª"
At this time, there was a sound of a dead branch being trampled in the darkness in the distance.
The other brother could hear clearly this time, and stopped talking, and his face became serious.
"Go, go and report to your lord."
The two of them quickly turned around and ran back to the banner leader Zhou Ba who was waiting under the cliff not far away.
"Master Banner Head, there is movement over the mountain pass, and it is estimated that the militia has come over." They lowered their voices to report to Banner Head Zhou Ba.
Zhou Ba was wrapping up his battle robe, leaning on a stone and dozing off with his eyes closed. Hearing this, he stood up abruptly.
"Ready to fight!"
Zhou Ba stared at the dark mountain road in the distance, turned his head and said.
"Get ready to fight, don't make any noise¡ª"
The officers tiptoed to remind the soldiers who had been on guard for most of the night. The soldiers also touched their weapons and began to move their muscles and bones, ready to fight.
Groups of soldiers from the Qinghe Army arrived behind the fence and ditch on the south side of the mountain pass under the cover of night, staring at the darkness in the distance with bated breath.
On the dark mountain road, rustling and crackling sounds were soon heard, and occasionally there were the collision and muffled sounds of weapons.
Obviously, the militiamen really took advantage of the night to touch it. Hearing the movements that came from time to time at that time, Zhou Ba, the head of the banner, showed a sneer on his face.
Chen Ziang confessed that the civilian army might counterattack at night, so he should be more vigilant. At first, he felt that the civilian army had just been defeated and their morale was low, and it was dark at night, so the civilian army did not counterattack so quickly.
Now hearing the movement from the south side of the mountain pass, Zhou Ba admired Chen Ziang too. It seems that it is always right to be cautious.
Although the civilian army led by general Qin Lie wanted to counterattack the Yingzui Peak Pass at night, the idea was good, but their civilian army had not received strict training for overnight battles.
Qin Lie selected 2,000 elites as the assault force. These 2,000 elites were all from the family soldiers of their Qin family. They were not only well-equipped, but also well-trained.
Qin Lie's idea is very simple. He will personally lead two thousand elite troops to attack, and then the large army will lie in ambush in the distance, and will follow closely when the time comes.
If more than 10,000 militiamen were engaged in a sneak attack together, untrained troops would easily be discovered before they approached.
Qin Lie, the fierce general of the 20th Corps of the Civilian Army, won many victories, not only because of his bravery.
Many people are often deceived by his big waist and thick waist. In fact, he knows how to fight and rush when he fights.
Qin Lie walked in the team carrying a jet-black black iron long spear. From time to time, he raised his head and looked towards the mountain pass.
The mountain pass was quiet except for a few bonfires and Qinghe army sentries standing guard. He reckoned that the defenders had fallen into a deep sleep.
? When he was in Jiangbei province, Qin LieHe once conducted a night attack, when he led 500 elite troops directly into the lair of the rebel army, so he has experience.
Now they are only a few hundred steps away from the mountain pass, and there is no reaction from the defenders. Qin Lie knows that they can make an assault if they go a little further.
Thinking of his hapless second brother, Qin Yun, who was still lying there unable to move, Qin Lie couldn't help a sneer from the corner of his mouth.
As long as he counterattacks and takes down the mountain pass of Yingzui Peak, his prestige will be even higher at that time. In the 20th Corps of the People's Army, he will be number two under one person and over ten thousand people.
"Phew!"
Just when Qin Lie felt that the winning ticket was within his grasp, the whistling sound of arrows suddenly sounded in his ears.
A rocket shot from the mountain pass, and the faint light of the fire illuminated the surrounding darkness, and Qin Lie's complexion suddenly changed.
Those militia soldiers who were slowly moving towards the mountain pass did not expect a sudden rocket to fly, and they all tried to hide in the darkness.
Zhou Ba, the head of the banner, stood at the mountain pass, watching the rocket's light illuminate the darkness, and he saw countless black shadows dodging, forming a large area of ??darkness.
The soldiers of the Qinghe Army also saw clearly a large number of militiamen in the darkness in the distance, and they took a breath.
If they were unprepared, once these militiamen approached them, their lives might be lost.
"Bow and arrow, step-by-step shooting!"
Zhou Ba had already confirmed that a large number of militiamen had reached the front with an arrow, and immediately gave the order to attack.
Zhou Ba called up all the four thousand-man archers of the First Banner Regiment. In the dark, he really didn't want to fight the opponent in melee.
Following Zhou Ba's order, the archers hidden in the darkness quickly lit their torches, bent their bows one by one, and countless rockets covered the mountain road on the south side.
"Whoosh, whoosh!"
Countless rockets, trailing scarlet marks, cut through the darkness, terrifying the militiamen hiding in the darkness.
The two thousand elites of the civilian army came up lightly. They only carried the blade, and the shield was too heavy, so they didn't carry it.
Now facing the raindrop-like arrows, they don't even have anything to resist.
"Puff"
Sharp arrows shot towards the sky, and in the cloud of blood mist, countless black shadows screamed and fell to the ground.
"Well!"
"ah!"
"My thigh!"
There were screams and shouts one after another in the darkness, and the militia soldiers fell down like ripe wheat.
"Rush, rush up!"
Qin Lie had already recovered from his shock, he fired an arrow with a single shot, and raised his arms and shouted.
They are now very close to the mountain pass, and they can pounce on it with a single charge. Instead of being baptized by arrows here, it is better to rush forward and fight.
"Shhhhhhh!"
Some veterans of the civilian army were the first to react. Holding their swords, they jumped up and rushed towards the mountain pass.
However, they underestimated the defensive strength of the defenders at the mountain pass. They had just run more than ten steps away when the second round of arrow rain roared in. Countless people screamed and fell on the charging Lu Province.
The thousands of archers fired in turn, hardly giving the militiamen on the mountain road a chance to breathe. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
