Chapter 366 There is an inner ghost in our army?

Immediately, some archers hurried down the city wall, and hurriedly reported this matter to the lieutenant general.

The guard fell down, and he is currently the deputy general director. In view of what happened to the guard on the city wall yesterday, the deputy general did not go up the city wall this time, and only ordered the archers on the city wall to report the military situation at any time.

After the deputy general knew this, he couldn't sit still, his face was ugly, and he fell into hesitation.

Looking at the posture of the enemy army, I am afraid that they will continue to smash stones continuously. They must have seen something on the city wall, and they will adopt such tactics.

Could it be that they came to investigate in the dark last night?

The lieutenant quickly dismissed this thought from his mind, probably not, since they were under martial law last night, they started to set up traps five miles outside the city gate, if someone sneaks up and investigates at night, they will definitely found by them.

If they are allowed to continue throwing stones, once the city wall breaks, they will be exposed to the rebels, and the two sides will inevitably fight.

But if they don't want them to continue throwing stones, they can only go out of the city gate to fight, which is inconsistent with their original defense order, and the two sides are still fighting.

So the lieutenant was in a dilemma.

Originally, he could discuss it with the guard, but now the guard is still in a coma, and he can only carry it alone.

I have never felt a heavy burden on me at this moment.

Yanmen Pass is a very important place. Once Yanmen Pass is lost, it is equivalent to putting the capital under the eyes of rebels. The Holy One will definitely not let go of those who lost Yanmen Pass. The guard is unconscious. Now he is the one who decides. He made a wrong decision and lost the Yanmen pass. Perhaps the guards could escape, but he had only one death.

At this time, the deputy general really wished that he was the one lying on the bed.

The lieutenant general's complexion fluctuated, and it took him a long time before he made up his mind, "You guys continue to guard and report the situation at any time. If the cracks in the city wall are getting deeper and deeper, you must report back in time."

He decided that since he would fight the enemy no matter what, it would be better for them to strike first.

If the city wall doesn't break today, he is going to lead people to sneak attack at night!
The enemy army must have never imagined that they would not only attack, but also attack at night.

The lieutenant carefully calculated the strength of the two sides. They are a battle-hardened army with sufficient experience in night raids, while the opponent is a mob who doesn't have experience in dealing with such night raids. This gives them an extra chance of winning.

Taking advantage of the unprepared night attack and catching them by surprise, there will be more chances of winning.

The person in command of the other side is the magistrate of a county, and she is just a little lady, she is just messing around, not to be feared at all, and there are no generals worth being afraid of, and lack of experience, when they attack the door at night, they will definitely fail in panic. This is another one-point chance of winning.

Furthermore, what they have always been afraid of is the opponent's [-] cavalry. Except for the cavalry, they don't pay attention to the others, and the time they choose for their night attack happens to be in the middle of the night, when people are sleeping soundly. At that time, the reason why the cavalry was powerful was because they had horses. He didn’t believe that those cavalrymen slept on horses. In this way, it was impossible for the cavalry to move out when they opened the door. Even if the cavalry touched the horse, forgive them. Running around in Yingzhong, otherwise they will not be able to use it well, and they will easily trample on their own people. In this way, they will lose the biggest support of the rebels.

With their ability to charge into the trap following the late emperor, one fight with five is not a problem, even if they end up killing or injuring a lot of people, it is still their victory.

After all the calculations, the lieutenant felt that the decision to attack at night was very good, and it could suppress the other party's support by surprise. Maybe they didn't have to wait for Master Wang to arrive, and the rebels would be wiped out by them.

The lieutenant general made up his mind and waved his hand to let the archer go out, just waiting for the report. If the city wall breaks today, it's his turn to worry about the possibility of the opponent's night attack at night.

Until the evening, Jiang Yuanxi called Jin to withdraw his troops again, but the defenders did not feel relieved, and felt even more uneasy.

Because there are more and more cracks in the middle of the city wall, the deepest one has even reached a depth of ten feet.

When they removed the stones that had piled up on the city wall, they were very anxious, for fear that the movement of their own moving would deepen the crack.

When all the stones were removed, the defenders felt more tired than fighting. They looked at the city wall worriedly, and did not dare to send too many people to guard the city wall, lest they would crush the city wall.

After dinner in the evening, the defenders got their order to attack at night. Most of them felt that they finally didn’t have to be aggrieved and worried. Follow the general's orders and continue to defend the city.

But the guard has not yet woken up, and the lieutenant general is in charge of all matters in the army. The sergeants who are accustomed to obeying orders, even if they disagreed in their hearts, did not refute the order, and began to prepare for the night battle after dinner.

At the third watch, [-] sergeants were already ready to go, and the lieutenant left [-] sergeants to stay behind. With a wave of his hand, he took the lead out of the city.

The gate of the city was opened to allow only five people to pass through. There was not much movement, and the people in the city hardly knew that the gate that had been closed for several days was opened.

The sergeants filed out, assembled outside the city, and rushed overnight.

They have been stationed at Yanmen Pass for a long time, and to put it bluntly, they can walk back and forth with their eyes closed in the surrounding terrain.

They had a clear goal, and there was very little movement along the way. When they touched Jiang Yuanxi's camp two miles away, all of them felt excited in their hearts.

The dimly lit lantern hanging at the gate of the camp was like the dawn of victory, making bloodthirsty smiles appear on the faces of these soldiers.

They couldn't wait to see those rebels screaming and begging for mercy under their swords.

Hurry up, soon, we will arrive at the camp of the rebels.

"Such a large group of people came to my place secretly, this is not the way to visit my house."

A clear and lazy voice sounded.

This voice scared the defenders out of their wits.

Immediately afterwards, torches were lit up all around, and the flames grew more and more, and the defenders gradually saw the surrounding situation clearly.

Looking at it this way, it was as if they had fallen into an ice cave, and it was so cold that their fiery hearts felt a chill instantly, and their bodies shivered slightly.

There are people in armor all around, and there are cavalry on both sides ready to go, covering the horse's mouth, and the spears are shining coldly under the firelight.

In the rebel camp behind them, rebels holding shields and long knives soon poured out, densely packed, innumerable.

Except for the back road when they came, they were already surrounded by people.

And there are cavalry, as long as the cavalry on both sides are surrounded, they will be made dumplings.

The lieutenant turned pale, looked at the person who spoke just now, and slightly raised his head to look at her, with a gloomy heart, "There are spies and ghosts in our army?"

If not, how could the rebels have been prepared to wait here?
Jiang Yuanxi smiled lightly, "No."

The lieutenant obviously didn't believe it, he gritted his teeth, the corners of his eyes were cracked, and swore, "If I survive, I will definitely find out that inner ghost, quarter his body by five horses, and put him to death."

Most of Jiang Yuanxi's profile face could not be seen in the darkness, and she could only hear her whisper: "Then it seems that you have no chance."

With a wave of his hand, he shouted loudly, "Kill!"
