Dynasty Conquest

Chapter 465 Night Attack on Barstow

In the dark night, in the Barstow area at the junction of the province of Silia and the province of Durant, the sentry tower stands tall, and the dim lights sway in the night wind. Zhongbai chatted in a low voice, bored.

"Hey, brother, do you think Wang Jing's girl is really as beautiful as the officer said?" A sentry pushed another sentry on the smoking grass and asked curiously.

Another sentry took a deep breath of the tobacco in his mouth, with longing on his face: "That's not true, do you know the maids of Yuwang's mansion? They were all brought by Yuwang from Wangjing, tsk tsk, That beautiful water spirit..."

Hearing this sentry's description, the other sentry's face was full of longing. Thinking of those juicy girls, the young sentry suddenly wanted to go to Wang Jing urgently.

"Boy, stop drooling, and work hard with His Royal Highness the Rain King. When we hit Wangjing, you can pick whatever girl you want." Another sentry saw the saliva at the corner of the young sentry's mouth, and patted him on the shoulder. laughed and cursed.

"Why don't you two keep watch! Do you want to be whipped again—" When the two sentries were discussing excitedly, the officer who got up easily came over, rubbing his sleepy eyes and swearing at them .

The officer was from aristocratic background. Although he did not have a title, the family behind him was not to be offended. The conversation of the two sentries stopped abruptly. They nodded and bowed, quickly extinguished the tobacco in their hands, and ran back to their post.

The officer returned to the military tent after cursing and expiring, and not long after, there was a loud snoring sound from the military tent.

"What's his mother's air? He didn't become an officer because of his family relationship. He really thinks he has great abilities." The sentinel complained dissatisfiedly after the officer fell asleep.

"If we get to the battlefield, I'll give him a knife first, and watch him bully us." Another sentry complained angrily.

After the King of Rain set up the banner on the side of the Qing emperor, those nobles who opposed the emperor Long Han came to vote one after another, and the marquis and dukes of the entire province of Silia walked everywhere for a while.

In order to win over these nobles who came to seek refuge, when Rain King Longjing reorganized the army, all the officers were all descendants of nobles.

These dandy aristocrats on weekdays don't know how to lead troops to fight at all. They show off their power in the barracks and beat and scold the soldiers at every turn. The soldiers dare not speak out and have a lot of resentment.

Although Rain King Longjing knew that these noble children were not good at leading troops to fight, what he needed now was the support of the nobles, so he could only turn a blind eye to the smog that the noble children made in the generals.

"Who is it!" Suddenly, a sentry heard a noise in the bushes outside the trench, and immediately vigilantly held the bayonet in his hand and asked loudly.

The Barstow area is located at the junction of Durant Province and Silia Province. It is a strategic location. It can attack Durant Province, which is loyal to Emperor Longhan, and retreat to guard the gate of Silia Province.

As the Rain King raised the anti-flag, this was already the front line, so the soldiers guarding here were always vigilant, fearing that Emperor Long Han's army would come.

Time passed by, and there was no more sound in the bushes.

"Brother, don't be so nervous, maybe it's the movement made by wild animals." Another sentry smiled and comforted the young sentry when he saw the nervous appearance of the young sentry.

The young sentinel stared at the dark bushes with doubts on his face. He clearly heard the noise. He waved to another sentry and said, "I'll go and have a look. Be careful, there's nothing wrong."

Seeing the young sentry walking towards the bushes with a lantern, the other sentry shook his head helplessly, lit the tobacco in his hand, and did not follow.

Although it has been a week since Rain King Longjing raised the anti-flag, but according to intelligence, Wang Jing's army is still distributed in more than 30 provinces to carry out reforms, so the sentinel did not believe that Wang Jing's army would appear in Bath support.

What's more, there are more than 3 garrison troops under the command of Rain King Longjing in Barstow, which can be described as heavily guarded, so they don't worry at all that Emperor Long Han's army will foolishly attack a heavily guarded place.

"Pfft—" The cold light flickered in the darkness, and a sharp spear suddenly shot out from the bushes, piercing through the body of the sentinel holding the lantern.

"Enemy..." The young sentinel swayed, but before he could utter a word, he fell down in the trench with a thump, and the lantern fell to the ground, burning blazingly.

Another sentry who was smashing and smoking tobacco heard the noise, looked up, and saw his companion fell to the ground, and countless helmets shining with cold light emerged from the bushes, and the sentry's expression froze instantly.

"Whoosh—" A sharp arrow whizzed in, shot from the left side of the neck of the sentry with tobacco in his mouth, and flew out from the right side. At the last moment the sentry fell, he felt his neck was cold and painful , Then his body tilted, and his consciousness became blurred.

Heavy and dense footsteps sounded in the darkness, and near the outer edge of Barstow's garrison camp, black Zhenxi soldiers rushed out and rushed towards the sleeping garrison camp.

Faced with the surprise attack of the [-] elite soldiers of the Western Town Army led by Lin Chuan, the tens of thousands of garrison troops stationed at the Barstow camp were unprepared in the dark and were caught off guard.

The valiant soldiers of Zhenxi, with their sharp spears and flashing knives, kept rushing deep into the garrison camp. They were like wolves, fierce and powerful, and kept waking up the garrison in a hurry from sleep. The soldiers beheaded on the spot.

The barstow camp burned into the sky, turning half of the sky red, the tents of the guarding soldiers were burning, and the entire camp turned into a sea of ​​flames.

The bare-handed garrison soldiers stood up in the chaos, yelling and shouting. The officers couldn't find the soldiers, and the soldiers couldn't find the officers. Facing the elite raid of the Zhenxi Army, they didn't even organize a decent resistance.

"Run, run." The noble officers appointed by Rain King Longjing were like frightened rabbits, fleeing in disheveled clothes.

There are shouts of killing everywhere, and there are soldiers of the Zhenxi Army with indifferent and fierce faces everywhere. The garrison soldiers stationed here are extremely panicked. They fled to the west after being killed, howling.

There were brave garrison soldiers who took up weapons and prepared to resist, but facing the brave soldiers of the Zhenxi Army, they were cut to pieces before their individual bravery could be displayed.

Ten thousand Zhenxi soldiers quickly tore through the defense line of Barstow's garrison camp from three directions, broke into their camp, and immediately launched an almost one-sided massacre.

"Open a hole and let them escape." Lin Chuan, the head of the Supervision Office with a cold face, gave the order while looking at the noisy battlefield surrounded by the generals of the Zhenxi Army.

The battle song of the general of the Zhenxi Army was very puzzled: "My lord, why did you let us make a hole, we can completely wipe them out."

Lin Chuan explained with a smile: "Our army's victory in this battle has been determined. It is not a concern for us to let go of some routs. These routs will bring back the panic of defeat and help us break down the morale of the enemy."

After hearing Lin Chuan's explanation, Zhange had to obey. He has always fought for a city and a place, showing courage for a while, but Lin Chuan raised a simple night attack to a strategic level, not only Not only to destroy the enemy physically, but also to attack the enemy morale. This kind of foresight is not available in Warsong at present.
