Crowned the New Han Dynasty

Chapter 986: Beat the drums in front, ring gold in the back

As soon as Ran Zhan left, everyone looked at each other in shock.

Not to mention Ran Zhan, others were also confused by Chen Zhi's confident tone, but they were not wondering whether he could win, but they were thinking about Chen Zhi's plan.

But anyone who has been with Chen Zhi in the army knows that this general who conquers the north has a sense of being exhaustive, since he said so, he must be careless.

However, before everyone could clear their thoughts, there were bursts of commotion outside the camp, accompanied by the neighing of people and horses.

Everyone listened, and couldn't help but tremble in their hearts, knowing that the enemy troops had already stormed in!
Wei Xiong's troops have indeed attacked the camp, earlier, faster, and more resolutely than originally planned!

According to Wei Xiong's original plan, he would first approach in secret and then strike with thunder. However, the plan was directly rejected by him midway and was changed to a forced march. He ordered the entire army to attack and no longer hide.

In fact, marching at night cannot be hidden from those who are interested. It is only the desolation of the wilderness at this time that can hide it. But after all, it cannot be hidden. It is false to say that no information will be leaked. It depends on which speed. If the attacker is faster, the enemy will be in chaos, and vice versa.

In fact, after Wei Xiong killed the second wave of patrolling soldiers, he vaguely sensed something was wrong, because he did not encounter any patrolling people again. Looking around, he could still see dots of firelight gathering at the Chaodai County barracks——

Every bit of fire represents a torch, and more importantly, a patrolman.

In this situation, how could Wei Xiong still not know the fact that he was exposed?But he was not confused at all, because before attacking, he had already planned many countermeasures in order to have a strategy for any situation.

Seeing that he was exposed, Wei Xiong immediately issued an order for his troops to attack.

The general has been with him for a long time, and has carried out night raids and hijacks of camps more than once. He has rich experience and knows that even if the other party knows the news, it will take time to assemble troops, reorganize the army, and resist counterattacks. The time difference is critical. The key for their group to exploit.

Before the enemy troops are assembled, as long as the enemy camp can be disrupted, the result will be that the enemy troops are in chaos and cannot form a system. They will then trample on each other and collapse without a fight.

In fact, night attacks are not uncommon for military strategists. When the two armies fight and set up camp, of course each has their own plans and plans, and they must be prepared for the other side's night attacks.

But this kind of prevention is not that easy, because soldiers have to sleep after all, otherwise they will have no energy, and their morale will collapse before they start fighting. There is no way to prevent it every night. After all, you don’t know what day the opponent is. Come and attack.

However, Chen Zhi knew very well that with Wei Xiong's cautious temperament, he must first observe the trajectory of the barracks inspection. In addition, he knew that there was a force within Tuoba urging Wei Xiong to make it difficult for him to hold on, so he should choose a Dark night action.

It is a dark night, and there is often strong wind. In ancient times, military advisers sometimes saw strong winds blowing flags, and expected that someone would rob the camp at night. This was not a mystery, but a plan and reasoning.

Tonight was the opportunity that Chen Zhi was optimistic about, but after all, he was not 100% sure, so he ordered the soldiers to rest and made other arrangements.

Now Wei Xiong led his soldiers and horses to charge in. He didn't encounter much resistance at first, and chaos gradually broke out in the camp.

But this chaos did not last long, and organized resistance soon emerged.

"That's not right!" Wei Xiong was so powerful that he rushed in with his soldiers, like a torrent hitting the coast, intending to strike with thunder. However, when he came in, there was no violent chaos as expected. Instead, he was blocked and entangled by some scattered soldiers. Dou seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, and the momentum of rushing to camp suddenly plummeted.

Under such circumstances, Wei Xiong even had the illusion of rushing into the empty camp. He felt that the layout inside the camp was very strange, and he became more and more uneasy. However, as a general, he could not show doubts, otherwise the whole army would be confused. So we can only move forward according to the original plan.

But as soon as a small number of soldiers and horses rushed into the camp, they heard the sound of "dong dong dong" drums, coming from all over the camp, gathering together, and resounding through the night sky!

"not good!"

Wei Xiong, who was fighting, immediately thought something was wrong when he heard this voice. He turned around and saw that many of his troops were hesitant and hesitant!
"There's drumming ahead, Han'er is about to fight back!"

"How could it be so fast? Even if they all sleep with their clothes on, they shouldn't just get up and form a team and follow the sound to kill them, right?"

"The enemy must have prepared their troops and horses a long time ago. They are just waiting for us to come over and capture them in one go!" There were many doubtful comments, which made Wei Xiong couldn't help but sigh.

"Chen Zhi is really no ordinary person, he actually came up with such a method!"

He could tell that the sound of these drums was unusual and extremely loud. It was obvious that more war drums were used than in the battle formation. I am afraid that even the spare war drums were taken out and they were beaten together to build momentum. .

The foundation and majority of the soldiers led by Wei Xiong are still people from the grassland tribes such as Xianbei. Their cultural level is not high. Not to mention compared with the Daijun military soldiers who have undergone simple literacy, even compared with other soldiers in the Central Plains, they are deficient in training. At that time, Wei Xiong could only teach them some simple command symbols.

Among them, marching by beating drums and withdrawing troops by shouting gold are considered the simplest two and are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

At this moment, when they heard the sound of the drum beating, the soldiers led by Wei Xiong immediately reflexively thought that the soldiers of the Chen family had already made preparations and ambushed in advance, just waiting for them to enter the barracks before they started their formation. Beat the drums and march over there, catching turtles in the urn!

"Send the order to the entire army! Don't retreat!" Wei Xiong is experienced after all, and he can immediately see the truth behind the voice. Whether it is a real ambush or a temporary countermeasure, the essence is a combination of fiction and reality. , To shake one's military morale, there is no reason to retreat. "Having entered the enemy's camp is half the battle won. As long as you fight bravely, the enemy will respond, so there is nothing to be afraid of!"

This is giving a death order to attack by force.

After the order was conveyed, relying on Wei Xiong's prestige and past achievements, he was able to suppress the commotion and reunite people's hearts.

Deep in the Daijun barracks, Chen Zhi stood outside the tent, looking into the distance, with gold flowing in his eyes. He could see two entangled claws above the camp, one representing himself, red in color, only on the edge. There are a few hints of green everywhere, one represents Wei Xiong, and the whole body is blue.

The two claws clashed, reflecting the fierce battle between the two armies, regardless of victory or defeat, just like two people wrestling with each other, not giving in to each other, but Chen Zhi could see that the claw of destiny, which represented Wei Xiong, actually had a shallow foundation and no follow-up. It's like someone has cut off your arm, and you are alone. Once you retreat, there is no buffer.

On the other hand, on my side, it is connected to the whole, with endless supplements.

"If the delay continues, Wei Xiong will naturally have no reason to win. He does not dare to compete with me, and because of the pressure from the clan, he cannot surrender. He still wants to achieve certain results and leave with dignity, so he must resort to dangerous tactics. Unfortunately, in this discussion, In a war of attrition, you are no match, and even this surprise attack by a surprise attack will not give you the upper hand!"

Chen Zhi turned his eyes and looked towards the distant village.

"Calculating the time, it's almost time to launch..."

As he finished his thoughts, the sound of ringing gold suddenly sounded in the distant night, continuously and intensively!

"not good!"

As soon as the voice came, Wei Xiong, who had just appeased the soldiers and continued to lead the attack, changed his face suddenly!

He looked in the direction where the sound came from, wouldn't it be where Tuncheng was?
"Could it be that Chen Zhi had a plan and was waiting for me to attack at night and take down our army without any bloodshed?"

As the thought turned around, Wei Xiong saw that all his soldiers were in a daze, and many of them stopped charging.

Beat the drums to march, and shout the gold to retreat.

The Daijun barracks was beating drums, but the rear of the Weixiong infantry was ringing with gold. Anyone who came here would think that their own army was ambushed, the offensive was unfavorable, and there was an order to retreat!

The soldiers who were close to Wei Xiong were okay, but those who were far away, as soon as they heard the sound of gold ringing, the doubts that they had suppressed with great difficulty resurfaced again, and they either stopped charging or turned around and retreated, and the army formation was suddenly scattered!
All around, the assembled military soldiers of Daijun had gathered around. Several people formed a small group, advancing and retreating in an orderly manner. In an instant, even Wei Xiong was surrounded by the soldiers of Daijun, getting closer and closer.

Wei Xiong looked around and sighed sadly, knowing that the situation was over.
