Chapter 7 Leaping Action (2)
The Black Diao Army raided Maling Village, without any information leaked. The Shu army in Xianhe Village to the north and Zijin Village to the south did not find that Maling Village had been lost, and Wang Jing, the commander of the Great Zhou Army, could not get the whereabouts of the Black Diao Army.
Under Wang Jing's supervision, Zhou Jun launched an attack on Huangniuzhai.
The terrain of Huangniu Village is dangerous. The heavy weapons such as flying cloud ladders, stone cannons, bed crossbows, etc. that are commonly used to attack cities cannot be transported. The only heavy weapons are the crossbows and the waist-induced crossbows. These two weapons are extremely powerful in field battles, but they are a little powerless to the strong military camp.
Zhou Jun ordered a thousand crossbowmen to approach the gate of the village under the cover of the big shield and shoot fiercely at the gate. The dense rain of arrows caused heavy casualties in the Shu army. The Great Zhou army took advantage of the suppression of the Shu army by crossbows and did not dare to appear at the gate of the village. The two thousand infantry soldiers carried the ladder and flocked to the gate.
Shu general Zhang Cun looked at the flag floating in the wind. The mountain wind followed the terrain and blew towards the direction of the Great Zhou army, and ordered: "Put the gray and mixed bran". There were more than a dozen large baskets on the gate of the village. The Shu army uncovered the covered cloth cover and lifted the basket to pour the fine gray and mixed bran out along the wind. The gray and mixed bran followed the wind and covered the attacking Zhou army like snowflakes. The gray and mixed bran were very thin, covering the eyes of the soldiers. The soldiers either closed their eyes or had their eyes clear and had already drifted into the gray and covered their tears, and could not open their eyes.
The gray mixed bran effected, and the Shu army's crossbowman took the opportunity to stand up and shoot fiercely at the Zhou army.
Seeing that Zhou's army was in chaos, Zhang Cun ordered: "Put the wooden crossbow."
The Shu army installed eight relatively fixed wooden crossbows on the commanding heights of the mountain village. The wooden crossbows were made of Yang Zhesang, which was 1 2 feet long, 7 inches in the middle and 2 slight three inches in diameter. They were opened with winches and were roaring like thunder, which was specially used to attack dense teams.
With Zhang Cun's order, the wooden crossbow roared and flew towards the Zhou army. The Zhou army was in a dense and chaotic state, and each of the eight crossbow arrows caused the Zhou army to fall down. Then, the Shu army released prepared round stones, and the huge rocks rolled down, killing many Zhou army soldiers.
Zhou Jun attacked three times in a row, losing nearly 300 soldiers. There seemed to be endless weapons in the village, which caused the Zhou army to suffer heavy losses every time it attacked.
Wang Jing received the battle report and pondered: "Huangniu Village has been built for many years and has complete defensive facilities. We must find a way to transport the cannon trucks and crossbows, otherwise it will be difficult to attack."
Xiang Xun said: "No wonder the Black Eagle Army has not attacked for a long time. They do not have heavy weapons, so it is even more difficult to succeed."
Wang Jing said: "What the hell is the Black Eagle Army doing? There is no news at all."
After the Black Eagle Army occupied Maling Village, it carefully interrogated the surrendered Shu army soldiers.
Qian Xiangnandao: "How many people are there in Zijin Village and how is the defense situation? To be honest, if you talk nonsense, be careful of your dog's life."
The soldiers of the Shu army said tremblingly: "The guards of Zijinzhai, Maling Village, are almost the same, with more than 600 people. The guards are extremely cautious. Every night he arranges a team of people to patrol the village. This is how it is every day, and the soldiers complain."
Qian Xiangnan asked several other Shu troops separately, and the situations they got were basically the same. After discussing with Qian Xiangnan, Hou Dayong, Shi Hu and Qian Xiangnan decided to dress up in Shu troops to attack Zijinzhai at night.
Qian Xiangnan asked in detail about the contact code between the military camps, selected several soldiers from the Shu army, threatening to tempt them, and asked them to help open the Zijin Village Gate. No one in the Black Eagle Army could speak Shu language, and if there were no Shu army soldiers, they could not open the village gate. Faced with the bright sharp knife and a heavy plate of coins, several selected Shu army soldiers agreed to help open the village gate.
Zijinzhai is only more than twenty miles away from Maling Village. Fifty Black Diao Army soldiers dressed up as Shu troops. Under He Wulang's leadership, they came to the Zijinzhai Village Gate. Hou Dayong led two thousand Black Diao Army to follow closely behind, hiding outside the sight of the Shu army.
He Wulang stood behind the Shu army soldiers, holding a sharp knife. If the Shu army soldiers did not follow the rules, they would immediately kill him.
Fifty people came to the gate of the village in a dignified manner. The Shu army soldier said, "I am Qiu Balang from Maling Village. The general asked us to go back to the city to do business. The elder brother is standing guard, so open the door."
The sentry inside the village gate said: "A cage of pigs intestine."
This was the agreed silence, and the sergeant of the Shu army replied: "Half a bowl of old white gantry."
The sentry inside the village gate met with the silence and said, "Damn it, son of the turtle, you're looking for death when you run so late. The general has an order. No one will open the village gate when they come tonight. You can play outside for a while, and I'll open the door at dawn."
The Shu army soldier was unable to do so, so he turned his head to look at He Wulang. He Wulang nodded. The Shu army soldier said, "Damn your mother, next time you go to Maling Village, I will let you freeze outside."
Fifty members of the Black Eagle Army sat outside anywhere, always keeping alert. On May night, the mountain wind blew, making everyone very cold.
It was finally dawn. When the guards in the village heard that fifty people came from Maling Village, they didn't realize it was a little strange and said, "How could they come from Maling Village so late?" So they went to the gate of the village and asked about the situation in Maling Village. The soldiers of the Shu army answered one by one. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, the guards were still worried, so they said, "You five people come, and the rest retreat."
He Wulang, three Black Eagle Army soldiers and the Shu army who answered walked closer to the gate. The gate opened and there were ten Shu army guards at the gate. He Wulang and five others entered the gate. When the Shu army who answered saw that there were few Black Eagle soldiers, they suddenly pushed the Black Eagle Army soldiers beside them and shouted: "They are."
Before he finished speaking, He Wulang had already taken action, pulled out his waist knife and killed the Shu soldiers. The other three Black Eagle soldiers also pulled their waist knife and chopped towards the Shu army guards. Seeing He Wulang taking action, the Black Eagle soldiers shouted and rushed towards the village gate together.
After nothing happened overnight, the Shu army completely relaxed its vigilance. Before there was time to shoot arrows, the Black Eagle Army had already rushed to the gate. He Wulang and four Black Eagle soldiers fought with ten Shu soldiers. He Wulang had great martial arts skills and used the He family's sword skills to kill three Shu soldiers in succession. However, the reinforced Shu army arrived quickly. Fortunately, the gate was not wide and there were many Shu soldiers, but there were only more than ten people fighting head-on.
The Black Eagle Army was outnumbered. One soldier was stabbed in the abdomen. After falling to the ground, he slashed with more than ten swords. Soon, two other soldiers were also cut down. Only He Wulang fought bloody battles and fought alone in the Shu army. Although he was hit by the sword one after another, he still fought hard and fought hard. The Shu army that was close to him cut down three people.
The generals of the Shu army concluded that the enemy's large army was behind. While asking the deputy general to lead people to block the gate, they organized archers to go to the gate.
He Wulang was already hit by nine swords. When he saw that he was about to fall to the ground, the other soldiers of the Black Diao Army rushed into the gate. The Black Diao Army dressed as the Shu army, and the weapons and clothes used were the same as those of the Shu army. Now they were mixed together, and they were unable to tell the enemy and us in a hurry, which became a complete melee. The Shu army wanted to close the gate, but the Black Diao Army wanted to guard the gate, and there were corpses buried at the gate.
The Black Eagle Army Observation Post saw the attack inside the village gate from afar. Dozens of Black Eagle Army soldiers rushed towards the village gate and sent a signal.
Because the mountain road was rugged, the Black Eagle Army soldiers did not ride horses. With Hou Dayong's order, two thousand soldiers rushed towards the gate with all their strength. At this time, the long-term hard training of ten-mile armed off-road was effective and soon rushed to the gate of the gate. Seeing that the Zhou army was rushing up, the general of the Shu army organized crossbows to shoot at the Zhou army without having time to use a winch to launch a crossbow.
A thousand Black Eagle Army members arrived at the Nei Crossbow, took out the Huanghua crossbow, and shot against the Shu army in the village. Another thousand people held shields and long swords, and rushed towards the village gate in the rain of arrows.
There were only more than ten people left in the Hei Diao Army at the gate, and all the others fell to the ground and were still slashing against the Shu army. Although the Shu army was large, the terrain at the gate was not wide and the troops could not be expanded, so the Zhou army that had attacked the gate was never killed.
When the generals of Shu saw that the Zhou army had been damaged, the crossbowmen of the Shu army were suppressed. The Zhou army was extremely tenacious at the gate of the village and fought to the death, so they let fifty crossbowmen turn around and shoot the Zhou army who was attacking the gate of the village. At this time, the Zhou army and the Shu army were still fighting at close range. Fifty crossbows came down, and the Shu army and the Zhou army fell down. He Wulang was shot by crossbows on the abdomen and shoulders.
