Journey to the West begins with a full-level Tang monk

Chapter 1401 The Sneak Attack Failed
The dragon and tiger gates were closed, and the third prince took advantage of the night to stand at the gate and look southeast.

It was pitch black there, and with his eyesight, he could only see what was beyond Li Xu clearly, and beyond that, it was basically a vast expanse of darkness, and he couldn't see anything clearly.

At this moment, he was still secretly suspicious in his heart. The sound that suddenly rang in his ears made him feel a little creepy.

But as a prince, he is not uninformed.

There are many strange people and strange things in the rivers and lakes, and it is not uncommon to see this kind of magical sound transmission technique. I have heard of it before, but I haven't heard it with my own ears.

What surprised him was that he didn't expect to meet such a great supernatural being on the Dragon and Tiger Pass.

The third prince felt that things were a little complicated.

I hope it's someone from my own side, not someone from the Jin Dynasty or someone sent by the First Prince or the Second Prince.

His Royal Highness the Third Prince could only pray like this in his heart.

Upon receiving such news, His Highness the Third Prince will definitely not turn a blind eye.

But he still has reservations, just as Tang Seng guessed.

At this time, the city tower was silent, all the manpower arranged was in place, and the archers were also ready.

A few stand in the open, and most of them are hidden in the dark!

If you find the enemy, you can immediately go into battle with the strongest firepower, and deal a heavy blow to the soldiers and horses of the Jin Kingdom.

Time passed bit by bit, and there was still no movement outside Longhu Pass.

At this time, the officers and soldiers who were transferred to the top of the city by the third prince also felt a little baffled, but they also noticed the scene of the third prince overlooking the city.

It seems that all this shows that the third prince has already sensed that something will happen tonight.

They also all concentrated on looking outside.

In their eyes, the night outside was also dark, and they didn't find anything unusual.

Moreover, as the defenders of the pass, they also knew that no scouts had returned from outside the Longhu pass tonight.

In other words, it is impossible for the Third Prince to get any news about the Great Jin Kingdom from the outside, and all sources of news should be obtained from the top of the city.

Could it be that the third prince had some kind of reaction?
Many officers and soldiers knew that if the third prince had not received any news, he would never have reacted like this.

But if they got the news, it might be the third prince's intuition about the war, and everyone can only guess like this.

Just when the third prince and many mobile phones were thinking secretly in their hearts, finally there was movement from outside the Dragon and Tiger Pass.

Countless dark figures came here in the dark, and when they appeared, they were only less than three miles away from Longhu Pass.

At this distance, not only can you see the soldiers and horses of the Jin Dynasty from the Dragon and Tiger Pass.

And from the Jin side, one can also see the situation of the dragon and tiger closing.

It can be said that the troops and military equipment of both sides have surfaced above the water.

When the two sides could see each other, the men and horses on the Jin side began to jump on their horses and gallop towards Longhu Pass.

Originally, when they used sneak attacks, they always brought war horses, but in order not to expose the target, they led the horses.

The horse's hooves were wrapped in cloth, and all the bells on the horse's neck were removed, so that even if it was walking, there would be no much movement.

Now that both parties are visible to the naked eye, there is no point in hiding any more.

The soldiers and horses of the Jin Dynasty used the fastest sneak attack, so this time the sneak attack on Longhuguan, with the horses, played this role.

The dragon and the tiger are closed, revealing the soldiers and horses.There is only one battalion, and the rest are all hidden in the dark.

This is the arrangement made by the third prince.

When the soldiers and horses of the Jin Dynasty rushed towards Longhu Pass, it was natural that Longhu Pass also responded accordingly.

Boom, boom, boom, a burst of violent drums sounded, resounding throughout the Dragon and Tiger Pass.

There is nothing wrong with this kind of reaction. In the eyes of the Dajin Army, it would be hell if there was no such reaction.

The distance of about three miles was reached in an instant under the gallop of the war horse.

According to the thinking of the officers and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty, in such a short period of time, even if the Daxia army beat drums and poems as a warning, they would not have enough time to mobilize people to defend the city immediately.

Because it was night at this time, the officers and soldiers of Daxia in the camp should still be asleep.

This is the time when people are the most sleepy. I am afraid that there will be some delay in getting up, and then I will rush to the Dragon and Tiger Pass sleepily, basically I will not explode too much fighting power.

And by that time, the Great Jin Army should have climbed to the top of Longhu Pass and captured one of the most important passes of the Great Xia Kingdom.

However, what the officers and soldiers of the Jin Dynasty did not expect was that when the army and horses of the brigade raided to a place within a stone's throw of the Dragon and Tiger Pass, suddenly there was a rush of clappers on the city wall.

Then on the city wall where the defenders were sparse, countless sharp arrows shot out from the wall of the city wall.

The next moment, countless feathered arrows burst out, shooting towards the advancing army like a torrential rain.

From the sound of clappers to the shooting of the rain of arrows, the cavalry of the Great Jin Dynasty had already run a certain distance.

This distance is within the most effective range of bows and arrows, the arrows are strong, from the violent shooting of Arrow Rain.

The cavalry who were running in the front fell off their horses one after another, and the horses became ownerless, and they ran wildly in all directions, and the scene suddenly became chaotic.

People shouting and neighing, like a pot of porridge boiling in the dark night.

The rain of arrows never stopped. After one round, the second round of arrow rain came one after another, then the third round, and the fourth round.

Obviously, judging from this situation, the generals of the Great Jin Army can already know that the troops closed by the Great Xia Dragon and Tiger are fully prepared.

There is not only a wave of archers who shoot arrows, the number of archers is much more than they imagined, and only a part of them are showing up now.

Sure enough, as the generals of the Great Jin Army expected, the rain of arrows did not stop at all, and wave after wave fell, they shot towards the Great Jin Army, pressing down on the Great Jin Army.

In the blink of an eye, two or three thousand soldiers of the Great Jin Army were killed by the rain of arrows.

As a result, the Jin army wanted to respond with strong bows and crossbows, but it was unable to form an effective attack power.

Under such circumstances, if they wanted to forcibly attack Longhuguan, the Jin army would definitely have to pay a high price, but the result is still unknown.

Because they want to attack the crown of Longhu, they need to use small tools such as hooks, lassoes, and flying claws, which are difficult to form a response.

With Da Xia already prepared, even if he could attack, he would still be killed by the chaos.

Moreover, the opponent didn't use the Rolling Wood and Striking Stone, so how easy is it to attack?

Once the strong attack continues, the strong attack will fail at that time, and the loss of the army will be immeasurable.

"Withdraw the army..."

All of a sudden, there was a loud shout in the Great Jin army, followed by the crisp sound of gongs from the dark night.

This was the signal for the withdrawal of the army. With the sound of the gong, it was announced that the surprise attack of the Jin army on Longhu Pass had failed completely.
