Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 76 Eclipse
The next day, the Vietnamese army had already entered Lize, facing the opposite Wu army camp across a river.

Looking at the momentum of Wu Jun's camp, Yun Chang did not rashly launch an attack order, but asked his troops to set up camp on the spot and wait for the opportunity to move!

"It looks like Sun Wu is going to have a showdown with my army in Lize!"

Yun Chang stroked his beard and smiled lightly.

"Hahahaha! I thought Sun Wu was so powerful, but it turned out to be nothing more than that."

Grand Sima Shimai sneered, and said, "Wu's army is only a few thousand. How can we defeat our Yue army in a field car battle? If I were Sun Wu, sticking to Wu's capital is the best strategy now!"

Hearing this, He Lu and Wu Zixu felt very helpless, they could only curse Shi Mai secretly for being short-sighted!
Sun Wu gave up the strong capital of Wu and did not defend it, and instead fought against the Vietnamese army in Lize. This is not because Sun Wu is stupid, but it is a very clever approach!

Wudu is the capital city of the Wu Kingdom, so what happened to being attacked by other soldiers several times?

Detrimental to the country!

Moreover, in the capital of Wu, there are still many officials and officials who have a close personal relationship with Helu.

He Lu was already prepared to spend a lot of money, asking Yun Chang to bribe those greedy officials and officials, and to cooperate with the inside and outside to help the Vietnamese army invade the capital of Wu.

At the same time, it is also helping He Lu regain the throne!
In He Lu's view, he is the rightful King of Wu, and he should rule the Kingdom of Wu legally!
It's a pity that Sun Wu didn't play his cards according to the routine at all.

Sun Wu has long realized that it is too difficult to defend a capital city of Wu, so it is better to give it a go and fight against the menacing Vietnamese army in the wild!

"Da Sima, don't take it lightly."

With an indifferent expression on his face, He Lu said, "It's true that Qingji's main force fought fiercely with the Chu army in Zhenzi, but there should be quite a few soldiers and horses near the capital of Wu."

"Our army broke through the camps built by Sun Wu one after another, and was delayed for a long time on the way to march. Presumably, Wu Du has gathered a lot of troops at this moment. Otherwise, why would Sun Wu dare to fight?"

Hearing this, King Yunchang of Yue nodded slightly and said: "What Duke Wu said is true. Before the capital of Wu was breached, and before Qingji was defeated and killed, everything is still unknown!"

Just at this moment, the sky, which was originally as clear as a blue sky, was suddenly covered with a layer of dark clouds. The already vague winter days were gradually swallowed up by the dark clouds, adding a gloomy color to the earth.

Is it raining?

Do not!
Wu Zixu couldn't help the alarm bells ringing in his heart.

I saw that the horizon suddenly seemed to be covered by a black curtain, and it became pitch black in an instant, and gradually spread.

"Not good! It's a solar eclipse!"

Wu Zixu exclaimed and hurriedly said, "Be careful of the Wu army's sneak attack!"

He spotted the sign, but it was too late!

At this time, the ground became pitch black, and the soldiers of the Vietnamese army who were still moving materials such as stones and wood to build the camp couldn't help feeling flustered.

People are quiet and horses hiss!

Everyone has not reacted yet, unaware of what is about to happen.

The generals and soldiers of the Wu army who had been lurking on the side of the mountain for a long time rushed over silently, and didn't dare to shout loudly until they entered the camp that the Vietnamese army had not yet set up!

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

In panic, the Vietnamese soldiers couldn't help shouting loudly.

There was only the sound of rumbling horseshoes not far away, followed by the firing of arrows.

The arrows, like locusts crossing the border, were thrown unscrupulously, and they reaped the lives of a large number of Yue soldiers in an instant!

The Vietnamese army, which was suddenly attacked, was in chaos, and many people were trampled to death.

"Don't mess! Don't mess!"

"Raise the shield! Quick!"

In this dark environment, the Vietnamese army could not tell which direction the enemy was at.

The Wu army who made a surprise attack did not engage in hand-to-hand combat with them at all, but just threw arrows from a distance, shooting and killing the chaotic Vietnamese soldiers without any scruples.

Yunchang, Helu and others shouted one after another, trying to stabilize the morale of the army.

It didn't take long for the rioting Vietnamese army to stabilize, and the Wu army soldiers who launched the raid had already begun to retreat in an orderly manner.

With the withdrawal of Wu Jun, the dark clouds dissipated, and the round of winter hanging above the sky gradually emitted its own luster.

This seems to be an environment that suddenly changes from night to day, and it is really difficult for people to adapt for a while.

"Hateful! Heavenly Sun Wu! Heavenly Wu thief!"

Yun Chang looked around and saw the heavy casualties of the Vietnamese soldiers nearby, he couldn't help gnashing his teeth with hatred.

In the dozens of rounds of arrow rain just now, the Vietnamese army killed at least [-] people, and there were countless wounded!
The two armies hadn't officially fought a decisive battle, and there was no hand-to-hand combat. The Vietnamese army had already suffered so many casualties. One can imagine how angry Yun Chang must be.

"Your Majesty, calm down."

The generals of the nearby Vietnamese army stepped forward to comfort Yunchang.

Wu Zixu couldn't help sighing, "Your Majesty, there are capable men in Wu's army. Today's solar eclipse is beyond our expectation."

"Wu Jun can seize the opportunity of this solar eclipse and wait for the opportunity to move, which shows that Sun Wu has many talents who know astronomy and geography!"

"Humph!"

Sima Shimai, who was on the side, said dismissively: "What kind of talent? In my opinion, Sun Wu is just an opportunist who wanted to send troops to attack my Vietnamese army, and just now encountered a solar eclipse!"

"..."

Wu Zixu felt speechless in his heart, thinking to himself how did Shi Mai's IQ become the Grand Sima of the Yue Kingdom?
"If it is as Da Sima said, the Wu army may not be afraid. However, if the Wu army really counts the solar eclipse, they have premeditated, I am afraid they will leave behind."

"Backhand?"

Yun Chang and the others were very puzzled.

"I wonder if Your Majesty has noticed anything unusual?"

Wu Zixu frowned and said, "Just then, Wu Jun took advantage of our unpreparedness and shot them with random arrows. It seems that they didn't surprise us with short soldiers."

"However, I think that at such a great time when the sky is dark, it is impossible for Wu Jun to shoot arrows from a distance. If I am Sun Wu, there must be a deeper intention for doing this!"

"What's the purpose?"

"Please ask your majesty to send someone to count the soldiers in each battalion. It is not impossible for the Wu army to take advantage of the solar eclipse to sneak into our Vietnamese army with elite soldiers."

Hearing this, Yun Chang couldn't help but change color.

If things are really as Wu Zixu guessed, the consequences will be disastrous!
So Yun Chang didn't dare to be negligent, and immediately sent people to assemble soldiers and horses, and began to count the soldiers of each battalion in case of accidents.

There are more than [-] soldiers in the Vietnamese army. There are many people with mixed eyes, and many of them have strange faces.

The only way to identify the enemy and the enemy is to screen them layer by layer, from high-level generals to low-level military officials, and then to ordinary soldiers, one by one!

At this time, seeing a group of Vietnamese soldiers screening their own soldiers one by one, Wu soldiers who were mixed in the Vietnamese army couldn't help sweating, ready to draw their swords to face each other at all times!
