Chapter 628: Kill you if you say it

The sky gradually became gloomy and the snow stopped quietly. After dinner, the heavy city gates in Longxing Mansion were closed, and even the suspension bridges on the moat were lifted up. The whimpering north wind blew. At this time, the gate of the Song army camp opened wide, and teams of cavalry came out one after another.

The target was at the Shenwu Army camp not far away. The teams quickly dispersed, and the rumbling horse hooves stepped on the snow, leaving behind muddy lines. The flags and the night color were one. Only the sound of the hustling sound could make people judge the location.

In fact, from the beginning, the responsibilities of each team have been clearly distinguished, and what we need to do now is nothing more than follow the steps.

Blood debt and blood repayment!

Facing the strong wind, although they were wearing thick cotton armor, the coldness like a knife still penetrated into the lieutenants' bodies through the gap. The lieutenants did not feel cold, at least their heartbeat was still so hot.

Chen Ao led a team of personal guards to play horses in the team. Although he was the commander, he never took action in person. This was the first time, and perhaps the last time. Since the game had been started by Li Dan, what would it become in the future is no longer controlled by Li Dan.

Chen Ao held the reins with one hand, as if he had held the ending of the game tightly. Shangfang sword on his waist was cold and cold. Chen Ao pressed it with his other hand, but he could feel a hint of warmth. This sword, the sword of kindness, is used most of the time to cultivate sentiment, must have blood tonight.

The team gradually gathered one mile in front of the Shenwu Army's tent. The teams were not messy. They condensed from a long dragon into a circle with Shenao as the center. The war horses were chirping and neighing, and were quickly covered by the whimpering sound of the north wind. Shenao squinted his eyes and faintly saw the lights of the Shenwu Army's camp in the darkness and the contours that lasted for several miles.

It's here, Chen Ao growled: "First Battalion, be ready for battle!"

At this time, the Shenwu Army had discovered the sudden cavalry. Li Dan was not stupid. Although he was arrogant, he still increased his defense. The scouts sent had already noticed the Song army's actions from the moment the Song army left the camp and immediately reported the news.

Li Dan received the reward and just smiled grimly and said, "I want to attack? Chen Ao is just like that!"

He didn't expect that Chen Ao chose to act at this time, just to take advantage of the closure of the city gate to cut off the connection between inside and outside the city. Since he wanted to kill, he had to kill him happily and prevent all those who disrupted the situation.

Just as the lieutenants gathered, the lights of the Shenwu Army camp were rising, and teams of Shenwu Army emerged from behind the fence. The horse pits had been dug in front of the fence and horse-resisting horses were arranged. There were even a group of archers waiting for them. Even the cavalry of the battalion of 500 people had already made perfect preparations in the battalion, and when the Song army was capturing the camp at any time, they would go around and attack the Song army from the flanks.

Such an arrangement is foolproof, and it is enough to deal with at least one thousand cavalry. If it weren't for the darkness, there would be only five hundred cavalry in the Shenwu Army, and Li Dan had already set up a formation outside the camp.

A lieutenant sat on the horse, took a horn from his back, and whimpered in the north wind, making a long bass sound.

This is the command to prepare for the battle.

The first battalion's counter-official officials were already cheering up and shouting: "Calling fire!"

A little bit of fire illuminated the hidden earth, and the flames became more and more dense. It was not a torch that lit up, but a cluster of fire lit up on the clusters of arrows. The clusters of arrows were soaked with tinder oil. Once lit, it would never be extinguished before the tinder oil was burned.

The first battalion had already escaped and rushed towards the Shenwu Army camp with the cluster of arrows that led to fire.

Rumble... Rumble...

The earth was trembling, and in the dark, cavalrymen who were attracting fire leaped out of the thick fog.

The Shenwu Army warriors in the camp were stunned for a moment, and then the sound of drums spread. After the fence, teams of archers began to draw bows.

Li Dan came out with a knife in person, and his drunkenness suddenly woke up. Although he was talking wildly, the Chen surnamed really dared to take action, which surprised him a little. However, at this time, since the Song army dared to come, he had no reason not to fight.

A vassal general stumbled over and said, "Mr. Military envoy, the Song army launched an attack."

Li Dan had heard the sound of the war horse rumbling on the ground and curled his lips: "We are in charge of the camp, what are we afraid of? Fight back with a bow and arrow."

The vassal general said in a frustration: "The Song army deliberately chose the direction of the wind, and the bows and arrows are afraid that they will not work."

If such a strong wind is fired against the wind, the range will be greatly reduced, while the Song army is in the wind. Compared with the two, the Song army's range can be at least twice that of the Shenwu Army. This is the benefit of taking the initiative. The Song army's main attack can adjust the attack direction according to the time of day.

Li Dan sneered: "Don't be afraid. As long as you can't break through our camp, they will die without burial at dawn!"

At this moment, the iron cavalry approached, and the flag officer leading the team first stopped his horse and rushed forward. When he reached a certain distance, he suddenly ran in parallel with the Shenwu Army's camp. A hundred feet away, the lieutenants of the team began to turn a bend and ran around the Shenwu Army's camp.

"shoot!"

Rockets broke out from their strings and flew toward the Shenwu Army camp!

The Shenwu Army in the camp began to fight back. The Shenwu Army behind the fence was blazing with fire, bent its bow and arrow, and its head was black and its lightning figure was scattered.

The strong wind blew, and the arrow clusters first shot out, then reached mid-air, but began to sway. They were only fifty feet away, and they had fallen one after another. They didn't even touch the enemy's fingertips.

There were also several lucky ones who rushed through the wind that was sweeping across the wind, but when they landed, their strength was already extremely small.

Rockets were shot into the camp. The Shenwu Army camp was originally made of felt cloth and wood. After the arrows with tinder oil hit the target, they would not be extinguished immediately, but would continue to burn until the wood and felt cloth were ignited.

At this time, Li Dan discovered the intention of the Song army. They were not going to attack, but wanted to use rockets to force the Shenwu Army out of the camp. Once the camp fired, the Shenwu Army would have to be buried in a fire except for going out to fight the Song army to decisively.

Li Dan shouted loudly and said to his guard: "Hurry up, put out the fire, this is tincture oil, don't use water, use sand and soil to bury it!"

But it was too late. Hundreds of rockets landed everywhere. The rockets pierced into the tent ignited the felt cloth in an instant. With the wind, the smoke and dust rolled in. When the camp was blown by the thick smoke, each other's cough immediately came out, and the sight of them was even more unclear at night.

Some fire points were extinguished in a hurry, but the strong wind helped the Song army. A tent ignited, sparks splashed everywhere, and fell on the nearby tent. Immediately, another smoke and dust rolled everywhere, and there were fires everywhere. The Song army outside the camp was still venting the fire rain. Countless rockets fell from the sky. The Shenwu Army soldiers who were hit by the rocket roared shrillly and kept rolling on the ground, causing some inexplicable panic.

Li Dan was guarded by a team of personal guards and arrived at an open space. Although he was not afraid of the fire spreading here, the rolling smoke seemed to be suffocating.

A vassal general shouted: "The Southern Barbarians are cheating, and the military commander is the master. This camp cannot be stayed anymore. You must leave the camp immediately!"

Li Dan was also a little panicked at this time and said anxiously: "Hurry up, report the message to the city and ask Long Rangwei for rescue."

The general of the vassal closed his mouth and nose and said in a muffled voice: "The city gate is closed and the news cannot be sent out. Even if an abnormality is found in the city, he will never dare to open the city gate without the order of the Ministry of War."

Li Dan fought a cold war and immediately realized that the city gate had been closed. Even if the shouts and fires outside the city were found in the city, the city would never open the city gate easily. Longxing Mansion is the important place in the capital. At this time, I don’t know how many soldiers and horses outside the city, nor do I know whether it was a mutiny between the Shenwu Army or a civilian in chaos. Once the city gate was opened at night, it would have to bear the danger of the chaos entering the city. Therefore, I would rather sacrifice the Shenwu Army, and there would be no rescue before dawn.

Li Dan gritted his teeth and said, "Fight with the Southern Barbarians. With the force, you can quickly lead the cavalry to rush out to disperse the Southern Barbarians who were shooting arrows outside the city. I will lead the troops out to respond."

In any case, this camp cannot stay. The only chance is to go out to the camp and fight the Song army to the death in this wilderness. The Shenwu Army has 6,000 people, and they are all elites from the Longxing Mansion of the Imperial Guard. They have the power to fight against a thousand Song army.

After making up his mind, Li Dan became a little calmer. After all, he was a warrior. Although he encountered sudden changes, he was not too panicked. He immediately said to his personal soldiers around him: "Blow the horn and prepare to leave the camp."

The gate of Xixia Camp was wide open, and the strong wind blew a team of Shenwu cavalry who were eager to try, so that they could not even open their eyes. However, in this dark night, the sight was not very useful to the cavalry. Behind them, although the fire light illuminated the sky, the road extending out was still dark.

A vassal general raised his knife and shouted loudly: "Kill the Southern Barbarian!"

"Kill the Southern Barbarian!" With a sense of unwillingness and anger, the Shenwu Cavalry burst out with a thunderous momentum, and then quickly rode their horses, and the five hundred cavalry team rushed out of the camp.

The Shenwu Army is indeed the elite of Xixia. At this time, the infantry gathered together and did not worry about putting out the fire. Driven by the vassal generals, they rushed out with big swords and spears.

With the cavalry team in front, they would not be blocked and killed by the Song army. As long as they rushed out, stood firm and the infantry formed a formation, they would have the opportunity to turn the situation around.

The dark people rushed out frantically and shouted to kill him loudly, and they were also full of momentum. They thought that the Song army cavalry outside the camp would take the opportunity to harass him, but Li Dan miscalculated. When the cavalry rushed towards the Song army cavalry unstoppable, these cavalry did not connect with them, but a whimpering horn. Everyone hid into the dark night and disappeared all of a sudden, and only the sound of rumbling horse hooves gradually drifting away.
