Chapter 268 Chen Qingzhi's surprise attack
Perhaps because it is too close to the sky, the starry sky on the plateau always seems to be very different. With Chen Qingzhi's elegant personality, he will definitely be able to recite poems and sing, but now he just wants to jump and scold people. For an army that attacks at night, the dark and windy nights suitable for killing and setting fire is the best. "General Chen, the moon is very round tonight!" Walking side by side with Chen Qingzhi was Yuan Ying, who was born in a famous family in Wanzhou. As one of the four kings of the Li Ang Golden Family in the future, he is still just an inconspicuous adviser, but the poisonous tongue that makes people hate it in the future has already seen his skills.
"I'm angry." Seeing Chen Qingzhi suddenly rode his horse forward, Yuanying couldn't help but shrugging. "If it were me, I would kick you off the horse and beat you up." Xue An said from the face. He usually experienced Yuanying's sarcasm very much, and he usually suffered a loss.
"With General Chen's skills, I'm afraid I can't do it if I want to beat me, but if it were General Ran, I think I would be beaten unrecognizable." Under the bright starry sky, Yuanying was in a very good mood, at least he could still make jokes.
"Are you not worried about the next night attack at all?" Xue An looked at Yuanying, who was always smiling, and there was really nothing to say.
"What are you going to worry about? Our night attack is not about annihilation of the other party. Anyway, as long as we get the advantage, we will run away immediately. With the ability of General Chen and General Ran, do you think we don't even have a chance to escape?" Yuan Ying said with a smile, "And the boss is not a good master. Do you really think that the boss is afraid that General Ran will beat him so he agreed to General Chen's night attack?"
"After you say this, we seem to have taken a huge advantage tonight." After hearing the reasons, Xue An muttered, and said that he looked at the desert soldiers who were mixed with Chen Qingzhi and Ran Min's horse-riding infantry behind him. These desert soldiers who lived in the desert since childhood, stapled beef and mutton, and rarely ate fruits and vegetables, were suffering from night blindness at night. Without the guidance of the Qin soldiers, they could not march at all.
"We were taking advantage of the situation. We knew where the enemy was, but the enemy still didn't know where we were. What is this not cheap is." Yuan Ying also glanced at the desert soldiers behind him who could only advance with the Qin soldiers leading the way and laughed.
"Yes; he laughed and told Chen Qingzhi's plan in one sentence. No matter what, he was a general. If he couldn't even see through this, he would be embarrassed in front of Yuanying.
In front of the team, Helian Bobo stopped the team. Chen Qingzhi rode his horse to him and asked with a frown, "What's wrong?"
"The scouts report. There are enemy scouts in front of us, and it seems that this night attack is not going well." Helian Bobo looked at Chen Qingzhi and replied. In his opinion, Chen Qingzhi and Ran Min's so-called retreat without fighting was a shame, but it was just a ridiculous reason. He just felt that Chen Qingzhi's Kushan people did not know their specific situation, so they had no mistake in their judgment that they had a certain advantage and agreed to the night attack. However, from the moment, the opponent was not a fool. But he was a very tricky person, but he was not the kind of person who would give up halfway.
"General Ran has already brought the scout himself." Looking at Chen Qingzhi, Helian replied with a clear smile on his face, "Anyway, General Chen, your original plan is to launch an attack before dawn!"
"Those soldiers in the desert cannot launch an attack in the dark, so of course they can only be placed at dawn." Chen Qingzhi turned around and looked at the desert soldiers behind him. He said quietly. "Dawn is the most exhausting moment for people. At this time, the enemy sentry will react much slower. This little time is enough for us to complete the raid and take advantage of the opportunity and leave."
"How will the troops be allocated then?" Helian Bobo took advantage of the waiting period and asked Chen Qingzhi's specific command situation at that time.
"General Ran and I are the main force to attack. You try to use bows and arrows to kill the enemy. I allow you to use more than 50% of the arrows." Chen Qingzhi replied. This time he allocated all the arrows he brought to the plateau to the desert soldiers under Helian Bobo. For him and Ran Min, the only thing these desert soldiers could do was to take action. Let them be used as cavalry for assault or the main force for hand-to-hand combat, which was just a waste.
"I understand." Helian Bobo nodded. He understood that Chen Qingzhi and Ran Min looked down on the combat power of the desert soldiers, and in fact he also looked down on them. However, as the commander of these desert soldiers, he was personally responsible for the training in the past six months, so he was somewhat unwilling to accept it.
In the darkness ahead, Ran Min's burly body was extremely flexible. He was known as the God of Martial Arts in the Southern Army, not only had his martial arts skills, but also his scout's skills were far beyond ordinary.
In a sense, he is very similar to Li Ang.
Looking at the three Kushan scouts moving forward in the shape of a font in front of him, Ran Min showed contempt on his face. These Kushan scouts were so bad that they were actually moving forward in such a scattered and conspicuous formation under such an open terrain, which was simply to die. After making gestures to the two scouts beside him, Ran Min's huge body shortened and disappeared into the grass.
A sighing sound rang in the grass, and the three Kushan scouts who were moving forward stopped. The three looked at each other, and then the scout in front walked to the place where the sound was made. He approached carefully and used a long knife to push the grass away, but there was nothing inside, nothing was left. He turned around and looked at the two companions behind him. Just when he was about to tell them that there was nothing to do, he saw a horrible scene. His two companions were grabbed into the grass by something behind him. At this same moment, they covered his mouth and nose with their hands, and then he was twisted.
After throwing away the limp body in his hand, Ran Min looked ahead, and his two subordinates also stood up from the grass, "It's so weak." As he muttered, he and his two subordinates disappeared into the darkness again.
"Kill them all." Looking at Ran Min who came back, Chen Qingzhi asked. "It should be killed all of them, a total of fifteen people." Ran Min nodded.
The team began to move forward again, but there were more scouts sent in front, because Chen Qingzhi did not want the surprise attack to become an encounter, but fortunately he went forward and did not encounter the Kushan scouts again. At this time, there was a ray of light in the horizon, and dawn finally arrived. At this time, they were only less than five miles away from the Kushan camp.
"Prepare for attack." Chen Qingzhi issued an order without any hesitation. The Kushans only built a temporary camp. Although there were also fortifications, it was still much worse than the real garrison camp.
The desert soldiers who had been walking with their horses for the middle of the night got on their own war horses. Then, under the leadership of the officers, rushed out towards the Kushan camp ahead. When the sound of deafening horse hooves sounded, the Kushan sentries who had been sleepy all night were stunned for a while before they came back to their senses. They immediately rang the alarm bell, and soon the sound of trumpets sounded in the Kushan camp.
The sentries had just issued a warning. Helian Bobo had already brought 10,000 desert soldiers to approach their camp, and then bursts of rushing arrows were covering them. Under the continuous attack of arrow curtains, there were no living creatures in front of the Kushan camp. "Scatter!" Helian Bobo shouted loudly to the personal soldiers beside him, and then a sound of horns sounded. Under the command of the horns, the 10,000 desert soldiers were divided into two groups and circled the left and right wings of the Kushan camp. At this time, behind them, the heavy Qin infantry riding on horseback arrived. After they dismounted and formed an assault formation, they made way for the desert soldiers in front and began an attack on the Kushan camp.
Faced with the sudden attack, the Kushans were not too panicked. Although they were well-trained as the Eight Tribes, they were also well-trained, but they were also thanks to the method of garrisoning the camp of the Lengyan Jia Nisega. He only arranged the guard forces in the front camp. Therefore, although Ran Min easily broke into the front camp with 5,000 infantry troops, he did not kill many people. During this period, the Yasha people of the Eight Tribes gathered had already established a defense line after the front camp.
Looking at the Kushan soldiers blocking ahead, Ran Min was surprised by their quick reaction, but he still didn't take it seriously, because the Kushan soldiers in front of him were all light infantry. The Kushans actually wanted to use light infantry to block the heavy infantry under his command, which could even kill even the cavalry. It was no different from killing death.
When Lengyan Jia Nisega began to take over the command of the entire army, the Yasha people under his command who blocked Ran Min had been penetrated by Ran Min's heavy infantry, "Kufu, you idiot." At this moment, the second prince, who was called the Kushan people, was roared.
"Your Highness, I thought Yasha could withstand it." General Yasha, who was shocked by the anger of Lengyan Jia Nisega, knelt on the ground. His original intention was to make Yasha resist until Lengyan Jia Nisega arrived with his elite heavenly people, but he did not expect that Ran Min and his heavy infantry were fierce and fierce, and almost completely shattering Yasha's light infantry formation like the autumn wind swept the fallen leaves.
