Domination of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 681 Night Surprise Attack 1
On the eastern grasslands of Xianbei, Gongsun Zan was preparing for the final dispatch of troops.Just a few days ago, news came from Yanmen Pass that Gongsun Xu would lead an army to a decisive battle with the Xianbei army.While rejoicing for his son's safe return, Gongsun Zan was also worried about the upcoming decisive battle.

Now Gongsun Xu has no more than 30 troops around him. Even including the soldiers accompanying the army, it is estimated to be just over 30, while the Xianbei Army has reached 40.

In fact, there are not many troops in the entire northern border. Gongsun Zan now knows the strength of his son's management for many years. If the northern border is given another month, more soldiers and horses can be gathered at Yanmen Pass to fight against the enemy. However, time wait for no one.

To be honest, the overall strength of the Northern Xinjiang Army actually far exceeds the current 40 people of the Xianbei Army. However, the geographical conditions of Northern Xinjiang are relatively special, which makes the distribution of the Northern Xinjiang Army more scattered.

The northern area is full of grasslands, and Gongsun Xu had to deploy soldiers and horses to defend the Great Wall defense line. Only Hetao, Jiuyuan, and Yanmenguan had more soldiers and horses, but the total was only about 20.

There are Yuan Shao, Cao Cao, Lu Bu and other princes in the south of Jizhou, so most of Jizhou's troops are used to defend against foreign enemies, and under normal circumstances they cannot be mobilized at all.

The east and north of Youzhou are also grasslands, and the frontier needs to be defended by troops. Other places, such as Liaodong and Sanhan, cannot be defended without a large number of troops.

Xu Rong indeed transferred 10,000+ troops from the Sanhan area, but at the same time, in order to ensure the safety of the Sanhan area, he still left more than 5 horses to guard it. Leave enough troops to guard this place.

"Taiwei, the troops are assembled." Yan Liang walked into the big tent and reported to Gongsun Zanhui: "The army is 20, ready to go at any time, just wait for the Taiwei's order."

"Wen Heng, I can't command you this time." Gongsun Zan nodded and said, "I have to go to Jizhou as soon as I finish my work here.

The matter of fighting the enemy is all up to you. I will not ask you how to fight next. You can decide for yourself. "

"If that's the case, then the general will not be polite." Xu Rong stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Taiwei, I have discussed with Yuanzhi that if we want to help the Lord in the shortest time, we must first defeat the nearby Xianbei army." big camp.

Wen Heng has already found out that the Xianbei Army has more than 12 troops stationed near our army. Although not all of them are elite, they cannot be underestimated.

The enemy army should be trying to hold us back. If our army wants to defeat these 12 people, it must be taken by surprise.For now, our army has the following advantages.

First, the enemy army does not know the real strength of our army. Up to now, the enemy generals have thought that our army strength does not exceed [-]. Hehe, as soon as a war starts, I guarantee that the enemy army will suffer a lot.

Second, our army is superior to the enemy in terms of the quality of soldiers and equipment and logistics. The enemy has an army of 12, but it cannot exert the strength of the 12 army.

Third, some units of our army are good at surprise attacks, which will be the key to our army's victory over the enemy.

The last general believed that if he wanted to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, he had to use a surprise attack to disrupt the enemy's arrangement first, and then overwhelm the enemy's defense with an overwhelming force. In this way, the war would end within half a month. "

"You are all veterans in the army. Since you have already negotiated, there is no need for me to participate in the war." Gongsun Zan said, "When will we do it?"

"Tomorrow night." Xu Shu, who hadn't spoken much, stood up and cupped his hands and said, "Tomorrow night is suitable for our army to make a surprise attack. After dawn, our army will be divided into four divisions to attack the enemy at the same time. At that time, the enemy army will definitely be killed." one strike."

"Then I'll wait another five days." Gongsun Zan nodded and said, "I'll go to Jizhou after your side stabilizes, and I'll start tomorrow. Hmph, it's time to start revenge."

Gongsun Zan knew that these people's talents were not low, and the plans they planned would definitely not be far behind, so he wisely did not obstruct or change the plans.

In the afternoon of the next day, Yan Liang led his troops into action. For this surprise attack, Yan Liang used all the power he had stored for many years. When the enemy army found out, they would definitely be surprised.

"It's getting dark, general." Yan Liang's lieutenant galloped to Yan Liang's side and said, "The surprise attack troops are ready and can attack at any time."

"Wait another hour." Yan Liang nodded and said: "The enemy army is still very vigilant, and it is not appropriate to launch an attack at this time."

"promise."

Tens of miles away, in the camp of the Northern Xinjiang Army, Xu Rong and others were waiting for news in the big tent. Yan Liang was in charge of the surprise attack, and they were in charge of the big battle after dawn.

"Is this possible?" Gan Ning looked at the sky outside and said, "Although our northern army is good at night battles, it's too dark now, you can hardly see your fingers."

"Don't worry, Xingba." Huang Zhong said with a smile: "Wen Heng has been preparing for a long time. Besides, the vision of animals is different from ours. We can't stretch out our hands, but our surprise attack troops can definitely see it."

Seeing that it was past midnight, most of the soldiers in the Xianbei army camp should have fallen asleep, and Yan Liang knew that the time had come for him to launch an attack.

"Let's do it." Yan Liang ordered: "The forward troops attack."

Strangely, after Yan Liang's order was handed down, instead of tens of thousands of cavalry charging forward, a group of logistics personnel with falcons and dogs came forward.

Thousands of pairs of bright eyes suddenly appeared on the pitch-black grassland, accompanied by the sound of barking dogs.From time to time, there were a few raptors neighing in the sky.

If someone came closer and looked carefully, he would definitely find that the periphery of the Xianbei army camp was already covered with mastiffs, and there were many birds of prey such as eagles and golden eagles circling in the sky.

This is Yan Liang's surprise attack force. After Gongsun Xu took over the eastern grasslands of Xianbei, some tribes offered mastiffs and raptors. Since then, Gongsun Xu has ordered the domestication of mastiffs and raptors to serve the troops.

Over the years, mastiffs have not frequently appeared on the battlefield, and Yan Liang generally does not use his own mastiffs to fight. As for the raptors, the northern army knows most about the fact that Costin can spy on the enemy.

The most terrifying thing on the prairie is the prairie wolf. When the number of prairie wolves gathers to tens of thousands, it can basically be said to be a wolf disaster. The general army is basically powerless to resist. Even the prairie cavalry will be eaten by the wolf disaster A lot of losses.

At this moment, there are nearly [-] mastiffs around the movie emperor of the Xianbei army. It is said that one mastiff is against three wolves. There are so many mastiffs, enough for the Xianbei army to drink a pot.

"Ah,,,,,," the silence of the night was broken by a scream, and a Xianbei soldier who was dozing off suddenly found himself bitten by something on the arm. Mastiff, before he could shout for help, he was already torn to pieces by the mastiff.

Soon, tens of thousands of mastiffs were active in the Xianbei army camp, and there were nearly a thousand raptors in the sky, and they were also attacking the Xianbei soldiers and horses of the Xianbei army who were alone.

"What's going on, what's going on..." a commander of the Xianbei Army led dozens of his own soldiers and ran over on horseback and shouted: "Don't make a mess, don't let the enemy army come in yet chaos."

"It's a wolf, a lot of wolves,,,,,,"

The panicked soldiers exclaimed as they ran away. The commander of the Xianbei Army was not afraid after hearing that it was a wolf. He just led his subordinates forward to drive away the so-called wolves.

However, when a mastiff running over quickly threw down the commander's horse, these soldiers realized that they were wrong. This is not a wolf, it is almost like a lion.

Prairie wolves did dare to attack all natural enemies, but few prairie wolves would knock down a war horse at once, and the knocked down war horse basically had no resistance.

"How could this be, what are these,,,,,,"

No one came to answer the commander's question, because the mounts of his personal soldiers were also knocked down, some of them had already died, and now no one could take care of anyone else.

"The enemy's camp is already in chaos." Yan Liang watched the battle outside the Xianbei Army Movie Emperor, and he immediately ordered: "Send five thousand cavalry to expand the results of the battle, and make sure to disrupt the enemy's camp."

Five thousand elite cavalry followed the mastiffs and rushed into the Xianbei army camp. Along the way, these northern soldiers saw many mutilated corpses of the enemy and some injured mastiffs.

Of course they knew that it was all thanks to these mastiffs that they were able to rush in so easily, but when they saw many mastiffs injured and howling on the ground, these soldiers also held their breath, and now they want to vent their anger on the Xianbei army.

"Send another 5000 people up to cover the retreat of the mastiff and rescue the injured mastiff..."

Yan Liang continued to give orders based on the situation in front of him. The mastiff had completed the mission of the surprise attack, and the enemy camp had been breached. At this time, part of the Xianbei camp had fallen into chaos, and the previous five thousand cavalry had begun to prevent fire in the enemy camp. , Next, it depends on how to expand the results on your side.

Amidst the trainers' whistles and slogans, the mastiffs retreated from the dangerous area, and another five thousand elite cavalry stepped forward to attack and harass the remaining camp of the enemy.

10,000+ Xianbei troops stationed the camp together, so the camp is quite large. However, a large camp is not necessarily a good thing. For example, once the fire is burning now, it is difficult to stop it.

In addition, there are still so many soldiers of the Northern Xinjiang Army galloping in the Xianbei Army camp. Those Xianbei Army who wanted to stop or fight the fire were attacked. From the beginning of the fire to the present, the Xianbei Army has suffered heavy losses up.

It is impossible for Yan Liang to give the enemy a chance to fight back. The [-] Northern Army soldiers have already disrupted the enemy. Seeing the fire in the enemy camp, Yan Liang ordered another [-] soldiers to attack the enemy from another place. camp.

More than two hours later, the fire in the enemy camp was still going on. Yan Liang looked at the rising sun in the sky and said, "It's almost dawn, let's attack with the whole army."

The remaining more than 2 soldiers and horses launched attacks from around the Xianbei army camp at the same time. The Xianbei army, which had already been fighting hard, now had to suffer more attacks from the Northern Xinjiang army.
