Chapter 955 nuisance the enemy camp
As night falls, a crescent moon hangs on the top of the mountain, like a silver scimitar.
The Turkic camp tents were connected and opened. They did not like the people in the Central Plains. The military camps had to set up formations. They all camped according to their living habits, but there must be the most simple and practical principles in life. Therefore, the camps looked messy, but in fact they were arranged in a staggered manner and did not appear crowded. They were like families, households, people walking, horse aisles, etc.
It was late at night, except for the patrol guards walking around and patrolling, most of the soldiers had already fallen asleep.
However, the injured barracks still wailed, without anti-inflammatory drugs, and there were not enough medicines and stones to relieve the pain, so the wounded could not hold back at night and could only howl bitterly.
Someone couldn't help it and took out a reed tube. It was a musical instrument made of the stems of the reeds. It was a type of instrument played by Hu people in the Western Regions and the grasslands. When they played it, they distracted the wounded and relieved the pain.
The song is vast, melodious and melodious, with the sonorous power of the Hu people and the bold wind, but it is also sandwiched with some soft thoughts and warmth.
The sound of reeds came into the camp of the wounded, and the howlings quickly stopped. Many people calmed down and listened, endured the pain, and even forgot their injuries. They missed the happy days in their hometown of the grassland, singing and dancing, which was in sharp contrast to the pain scene at this time.
I don’t know where to blow the reed tube, and I try my best to see the hometown overnight.
Many people cried and missed homesickly, and were unwilling to fight with the Central Plains again, because in recent years they fought with the Dahua army and did not gain any advantage. They were often buried in the Central Plains.
Suddenly, outside the camp, there seemed to be a sound of horse hooves approaching, and the entire ground was shaken by the iron hooves.
The Dahua cavalry rushed over, but did not directly attack the camp because the Turks dug trenches and arranged tripping ropes, trap pits, thorns, barbs, etc. to prevent enemy soldiers from attacking.
If you rush up rashly, there will definitely be a lot of casualties in the early stage.
The cavalry stopped and some people dismounted. The two of them cooperated to support the crossbow machine. They were both crossbows, with great strength and long range. The crossbow arrows were tied with oil cloth torches. After igniting, they shot towards the camp.
The range of this kind of crossbow can reach 150 steps, which is farther than the longbow. The soft bow drawn by the Turkic horses is only sixty or seventy steps.
This is not to say that the Turkic people have little arm strength or lack of shooting skills, but because the Turkic people ride horses and shoot arrows, and it is too difficult to use long bows, and the waist strength and footsteps cannot be exerted, and it also causes certain damage to war horses. Therefore, they all use soft bows, and the horse's rushing speed will make the range get closer and closer.
On the contrary, the Central Plains archers remain in place, pull the bow and shoot the arrow, and accumulate strength for a long time. With the help of the strength under the feet and waist, it is more suitable for long-range shooting of the long bow.
"Swish swish swish!"
Arrows with turtle cloth shot down and fell into the Turkic camp to disturb the Turkic people.
Suddenly, the tent that lived in the outer camp caught fire first. Some soldiers were rolled up by flames and rolled around the ground wailing, with fire on their bodies, and kept running around, often taking the flames to other places.
The fire was rolling up and spreading, and the Turkic soldiers became panicked, and the sound of trumpets, sticks, and gongs were all heard. It was a command to assemble the team and prepare for the battle.
There were also Turkic archers shooting outside, but the range was insufficient and it was difficult to reach the Dahua cavalry team.
"Banditman, change to some places and shoot again."
"Here!" Thousands of crossbow operators began to get on their horses and shot inside around different angles of the outside of the camp.
Xue Wanren and Pei Yuanqing, with the other elite cavalry, were patiently waiting for the Turkic cavalry to come out to fight, and they could take the opportunity to ambush and intercept. If there were still good opportunities, they could also enter the camp, kick the joint camp, make trouble, and then evacuate.
Only 10,000 people came to attack tonight. The task given by the above was to disturb the Turks, preventing them from sleeping well, damaging morale and increasing trouble.
Sure enough, Turkic cavalry rushed out of the camp, with at least six or seven thousand troops, as vanguards, and came out to test and block these Dahua archers from shooting rockets into the camp.
"Kill here!"
"Run"
Pei Yuanqing held a spear and fought with thousands of people. The sound of rushing around the mountains and fields was densely filled with blackness. The sound of fighting was noisy and rushing over like a tide.
"Dangdangdang!"
In an instant, the two sides started a hand-to-hand fight, not treating each other as human beings at all. They cut their swords, guns, swords and halberds into their heads, bursting out their brains, slashing wildly at the enemy's limbs, chest, abdomen, and necks. Thick and hot blood splashed everywhere.
Rumble!
A team of cavalry came from a distance to encircle and suppress the Dahua army.
The crossbowmen shot arrows in that direction, covering a range, and killing many Turkic knights.
"kill!"
Xue Wanren held a Zaoyang horse spear and led his troops to kill from the side, and met with the Turkic cavalry who rushed out of the camp and were shot by hidden arrows. He suddenly turned over and over. The Dahua army had the upper hand because of their intentions and no intentions, but they did not love to fight, but mainly used digging and cutting.
After a quarter of an hour, the horse's hooves in the Turkic camp were loudly sounded and the fire was bright. The main army was alarmed and kept rushing out.
"Retreat."
Xue Wanren and Pei Yuanqing ordered the withdrawal at the same time. Their manpower was not enough to break into the enemy camp. More than a thousand enemies had been killed outside. With the destruction and disturbance of the Turkic camp, the mission was successfully completed. There was no need to stay again, otherwise, it was likely that it would not be lost.
After the two teams quickly merged into one, they ran wildly, and 10,000 Turkic people followed behind to chase them. However, after rushing out several miles away, passing by a forest, there were ambush soldiers, and bows and arrows flew around, blocking the Turkic pursuers. They did not dare to follow up rashly, for fear of being imprisoned, so they cursed and turned around and retreated.
