Chapter 652 The King of Qi returns to Qi (continued 2)
Even late at night, the campfire in the camp was still not extinguished. Under the light of the fire, shadows of people patrolling back and forth were projected on the ground.
At key locations in the camp, campfires will burn all night, and the accompanying imperial guards will patrol in batches all night long.
However, it is impossible to take care of such a large camp - neither the manpower nor the fuel are enough to support their squandering.
Although firewood is not valuable, it is impossible to carry two carts of wood with you, and two carts are not enough...
These shadowy corners that cannot be taken care of by the light are undoubtedly the favorite flaws of the hidden people who are waiting for opportunities.
However, according to the theory of relativity, or Newton's third law, we can know that if they stare at the shadow, someone will use the shadow to stare at them.
Inside and outside the camp, hidden figures are gathering in these dark places, and a collision of fate will soon be staged.
………………
"It's getting lively." Gu Xun looked at the camp not far away where the turmoil was emerging.
Zhang Han stood aside, also paying attention to the camp, with a slightly solemn expression, "It seems that the opponent is more difficult than the general expected."
The Luo Sheng and Shadow Secret Guards in the camp were both the best among the best, but obviously, the enemy's people were not bad at all. Even though Zhang Han had made detailed and meticulous arrangements, the camp quickly fell into chaos.
.
Zhang Han didn't understand Luo Wang, but no matter how he thought about it, Zhao Gao didn't dare to send some brainless waste over to perfunctory the matter.
Gu Xun looked indifferent and continued lightly, "It's always easier to destroy than to defend. If we really fight, the opponent may not win."
Although they were not too close, both Gu Xun and Zhang Han could tell what these assassins were doing - setting fires.
They set fires throughout the camp to cause greater unrest.
This is also the most appropriate method. After all, no matter how many people defend, it is impossible to stop them from setting fire. Only when the fire is burning, it is easier to fish in troubled waters.
Zhang Han glanced at Gu Xun and asked for instructions, "National Master, let's go on..."
Gu Xun thought for a moment, "Well... go there first, but don't rush to do it, let the fire burn for a while."
"Luo Wang and the Shadow Guards can't just eat and not work. They can't expect me to perform deus ex machina every time, right?"
Zhang Han didn't know what Gu Xun meant by the term mechanical deity, but he could probably understand the meaning.
In this regard, he did not do much to dissuade him.
It makes sense. Gu Xun cannot do all the things of eating the emperor's salary and being loyal to the emperor.
Because the two of them had prepared in advance, the resting place was not too far from the camp, but they reached the place in less than half the time of burning incense.
There were already many fires in the camp at this time. Unimportant places were left alone to burn. If important items were stored, the Imperial Army was arranged to put out the fire.
Of course, these only account for a small part of the manpower, and the vast majority of the guards are facing the enemy.
At a glance, Gu Xun saw that there were about 200 or nearly 300 people in the camp who did not belong to the Qin army, divided into three categories.
The first type, wearing black clothes and covering their faces, wearing light armor and holding long swords, are the soldiers who died in the national war of Chu State.
The first type is all muscular men, tall and tall, who are obviously external martial arts practitioners of the Armored Sect.
And the last category is also the category with the largest number of people...
Gu Xun couldn't help but complained, "What kind of strange combination of arms is this? Why are there cavalry?"
The last category is clearly the cavalry riding on strong horses wearing light armor, wearing armor, and carrying bows and swords.
Zhang Han was more knowledgeable and recognized the origin of these people at a glance, "Yelin Cavalry?"
"Well, what is this?" Gu Xun turned around and asked after hearing this.
I've heard of the Yulin Cavalry...the Yulin Guard, but didn't that thing take decades to exist?
Zhang Han quickly explained, "This is the Yulin Cavalry under Zhao State General Li Mu. It is the most elite special force under his command. Most of them are former martial arts masters. After rigorous training,
As well as being honed through countless battles on the battlefield in the North, he is not only good at single combat, but also proficient in bow and horse, proficient in cavalry formations, good at riding and shooting, and also good at sneaking in for assassination."
"I didn't expect that Zhao Guo also had a hand in it, and the general never noticed it!"
After hearing this, Gu Xun couldn't help but nodded and praised, "It's really amazing."
The ones causing the most trouble in the camp right now are these hundred or so cavalrymen.
Holding a sword at close range and drawing a bow from a distance, not to mention the extremely fast switching speed between sword and bow. The accuracy of arrows is dozens of percentage points higher than that of the Qin army's crossbowmen. Even in the dark night, he can almost achieve 100% hit. The Imperial Guards on the Qin side were also elite soldiers, but facing this cavalry, they were still powerless and at a complete disadvantage.
As for Luo Wang and the Shadow Guards, they had nothing to do with this group of cavalry who were charging and killing them wantonly.
Zhang Han looked at the situation on the field, sighed softly, and said regretfully, "The general did not expect the appearance of the Yulin Cavalry, and the preparations were not sufficient. I am afraid that the people of Luo Wang and the Shadow Secret Guard will suffer a big loss."<
/p>
"I can see it, I can see it." Gu Xun was not anxious or distressed at all, and nodded in agreement as if watching a show.
If the people riding Yu Lin were knocked off their horses, the people of Luo Sheng and the Shadow Guards could still keep up with them, but when they were on horses, they were really short-handed and weak.
If you are prepared in advance and arrange things such as throwing ropes and rejecting horses in a targeted manner, the situation will be much better.
Of course, the Qin army occupies an absolute numerical advantage after all, and the embarrassment is only temporary. If it delays, the Yulin Cavalry will be wiped out sooner or later... but the battle loss ratio data may be a bit ugly.
As for the people from the Armored Sect and the National Soldiers, they were not as arrogant as the Yulin Cavalry, and they fought fiercely with the Luowang Shadow Secret Guards whose hands were partially restrained.
At present, there is only one stable area left in the camp, which is the central tent where King Qi Jian is located.
It was tightly surrounded by a large number of shield-bearing infantry, leaving no gaps open.
However, right next to the central tent is the place where the battle is most intense - the core of the battle between several top masters. No one within a dozen feet can get close.
This is not only the core of the battlefield, but also the key to determining the outcome of the assassination.
If Qin's masters have the upper hand, the balance of victory will automatically tilt toward them as time goes by.
Similarly, as long as the masters of the assassins find an opportunity, ordinary soldiers are unable to stop them from killing the king - the main reason is that the Yulin Cavalry suddenly entered and killed most of the Qin army's crossbowmen at once, without remote control.
, Ordinary short-legged infantry have nothing to do with these masters.
At the core of this battle, there are currently six people participating in the battle.
There were three people on the Qin side and three assassins on the side, so they were exactly equal.
? ?In two chapters at most, King Qi will be able to return to his country.
? Next, after writing a Confucian plot, we will start with Qin's destruction of the six kingdoms and the promotion of Canglong Qisu.
? Please don’t be offended if the timeline does not match up with the official history, because I really... It’s really a bug caused by the confusion and mystery.
? There is also the issue of the age of the characters. If you find that a certain character in my book has obviously not reached that age, but I wrote that he has reached that age, or that he has reached a certain age but has not reached that age, don’t worry about it. <
