Chapter 346: Night attack on Duanxi

However, Zhao Dongting shook his head and said, "I'm going there in person."

Donghe was anxious, "Your Majesty, the battlefield is dangerous, you..."

Zhao Dongting said: "I am more skilled than you in small groups of combat and firearms."

He didn't say anything polite, because this is a matter. Dongheli is a veteran and is skillful in military tactics, but the military tactics of this era still have limitations after all.

Zhao Dongting could imagine that if the Donghe army led his troops to attack Duanxi, it would be nothing more than setting up a formation outside the city, bombarding Duanxi, and then forcing it to take action.

But he wouldn't use those old methods if he went there himself.

There was bitterness in the East River, "Well, can you always let the old minister go with you?"

Zhao Dongting knew that Donghe was eager to fight, so he refused again and said, "Okay, Lord Donghe, you can lead 3,500 musket troops with me in person."

Donghe smiled and said, "I was almost sixty years old, and I was so happy that I seemed like a child."

Qin Han said: "Does the emperor plan to lead the flying dragon soldiers and the musket army to attack Duanxi?"

"No."

Zhao Dongting said: "I will take the enshrines of Wuding Hall, too."

Qin Han said: "If the emperor could take down Duanxi with less than 5,000 people, the Yuan Dynasty would have to look at the firearms more impressed."

The combination of flying dragon soldiers and musket soldiers can be said to be a modern army.

Zhao Dongting grinned, "It's a pity that the Yuan army also has thunder in the sky now. I just don't know if Boyan left thunder in Duanxi City."

He was really confused.

It was extremely difficult to attack Duanxi with less than 5,000 troops stationed by 30,000 troops. If the Yuan army had thunder bombing, it would be even more difficult. What he hoped now was that the Yuan army had insufficient thunder bombing, so it would be best if Boyan took them all to Fengchuan.

On that night, Zhao Dongting quietly set out from Huang Weidang with four hundred flying dragon soldiers, Wudingtang, and 3500 musket troops.

And Boyan had not arrived at Fengchuan Mansion at this time, and was halfway through the way.

Zhao Dongting led his troops to walk on the small road, but he rode all the horses. The army only brought dry food, and the marching speed was very fast.

It originally took about five days to get from Huang Weidang to Duanxi according to the course of the army. However, Zhao Dongting led his army to arrive within two days.

Of course, Boyan has arrived in Fengchuan.

Yesuer's army of 150,000 also drove to twenty miles north of Wuzhou City.

However, there was no news about the rest of the army and horses, and I don’t know if they were left in the camp.

Wen Tianxiang's 60,000 troops were allocated to Hanjin, ready to move, waiting for Zhao Dongting's instructions.

In Wuzhou City, on the north and south walls stood countless Song soldiers, all of whom were serious and flags were all planted on the top of the city.

Equipment such as catapults have also been pushed to the top of the city.

Five miles outside the city, it is a minefield.

Although there is no trace of the Yuan army at present, everyone knows that it will take a large-scale attack on the Yuan army.

A mere twenty miles away, it was really a fart for both scouts from both sides, and they could smell the scouts on the opposite side.

There are horse-rejecting and troughs everywhere in Wuzhou City.

Zhang Jue has tried all his strength and even considered how the Yuan army should fight the streets with the Yuan army through the city.

He also knew that the Yuan army had thunder and thunder. Under such firearms, defending the city was much more difficult than before.

Times have changed.

Since Zhao Dongting invented the Thunder, the original war style of this era has also changed subtly.

The combat method of cold weapons turns into hot and cold weapons due to the thunder of the sky.

The south of Duanxi City is the Xijiang River section of the water.

The Xijiang River is hundreds of meters wide and the waves are surging in the middle. Even in the most spacious place, the river water is not calm.

At this time, dozens of figures approached the Xihe River at an extremely fast speed in the night.

On the north bank of the West River, there are several bonfires. Needless to think, these bonfires are all Yuan army scouts in Duanxi City.

Although Duanxi City seems to be sound and the Song army has not many opportunities to attack Duanxi, sending scouts to station at points outside the city is a must-do after every general occupying the city. If the general who guarded Duanxi in the Yuan army did not do this, it only means that he is too arrogant and idiot.

Obviously, the chief general of the Yuan army guarding Duanxi is not a fool.

Dozens of people went to the south bank of the West River, leaned over to the ground, and slowly gathered together.

The person in charge was Yue Yue, the owner of the Shadow Hall of Wuding Hall. She held Xiao Lian in her hand and could not see any trace in the deep night.

Her body was tightly attached to the banks of the Xihe River, and in front was the bridge left by Kong Yuan when he crossed the river.

Looking up at the scattered bonfires opposite, she made several gestures to the dozens of Wuding Hall masters behind her, and then hurriedly walked along the crossing bridge to the opposite side.

In the night, the Yuan army could not see them at all.

Along the way, they were responsible for purges the Yuan army scouts, and have now killed more than ten Yuan army scouts.

The army led by Zhao Dongting was still behind at this time and did not get too close to Xijiang.

In the howling night wind, you can still hear the deafening waves in the Xijiang River. There are torches on Duanxi City.

But the Yuan army was afraid that the Song army would dare to attack Duanxi City, and the Yuan soldiers on the top of the city did not notice any strangeness.

In this era, there were no electric lights, let alone any alarm system. In the night, it was not an exaggeration to say that you could not see your five fingers. Naturally, you could not see the situation outside the city at all.

The Yuan army scouts who were lit with bonfires were still whispering softly in the cold night wind, not knowing that the crisis was approaching.

Scouts are definitely the hardest profession in the army. Other soldiers sleep soundly in the barracks, but they are blowing cold winds in the wild. Moreover, they have no status in the army. Usually, those who are not favored by their superiors will be transferred to the scouts camp.

But who can do anything?

Leaving the army privately is a deserter, and he will be hunted down by the military supervisory department, and few people can escape.

Some Yuan army scouts sat next to the fire, thinking about the plump bodies of the women in the kiln, and taking a nap.

Yue Yue quickly crossed the bridge with dozens of Wuding Hall masters, and his footsteps were almost unheard. In just a few minutes, he approached the Yuan army scouts more than ten meters away.

Even at such a close distance, the Yuan army scouts could not see them.

Yue Yue stopped, looked cold, and made a few more gestures before quietly continuing to move towards the fire closest to her.

The other dozens of scouts were divided into four teams, approaching the other four fires.

They cooperated very cleverly, and when they approached about seven or eight meters of the fire, they stopped and carefully cated on the ground.
