Early the next morning, Xiao Chen was awakened from his sleep by the desolate sound of horns outside.
He quickly got dressed and ran out, only to see Yan Luo, Lu Fei and others already dressed neatly and guarding outside the tent.
"The enemy is coming?" Xiao Chen asked hurriedly.
"Well, the battle report just received shows that the enemy is already ten miles away." Lu Fei said.
"We're finally here, how many people are there?" Xiao Chen took the imperial gold armor from Yama and put it on his body. He was inevitably a little nervous and a little excited.
"It's not clear yet, but there are always tens of thousands of people." Lu Fei suddenly smiled, "Boss, why are you nervous?"
"Nonsense, why am I nervous?" Xiao Chen said loudly.
"You're wearing your armor backwards..." Lu Fei said, holding back his laughter.
"Huh? What the hell is this broken armor! There is no distinction between the front and the back...Yan Luo, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and help me turn over, just watch me make a fool of myself!" Xiao Chen lowered his head to see if it was true, and became angry with shame.
After that I was happy too.
By the time he arrived at the mountain pass, Zhuge Xiaosheng, Wei Yuntian, Lin Yue and others had already formed a formation.
Hundreds of brand-new ballistae were all rolled out and placed on the narrow mountain pass, forming a semicircle.
Behind the ballista was a joint combat group consisting of a thousand spearmen, a thousand hook and sickle spearmen, a thousand swordmen, and five hundred archers.
On the high ground in the forest on the left are 500 musketeers and 1,000 light cavalry covered by 500 infantry. On the right, the most elite 1,000 heavy armored cavalry are hidden in the forest.
Three thousand infantrymen composed of people from Yanyun County have also arrived. Zhuge Xiaosheng asked them all to serve as a reserve mobile team and stand by in the rear.
Hundreds of meters in front of the battle formation were densely packed Juma stakes, which were all made by craftsmen led by Gongsun Ban within a few days.
With their skills and various handy tools, it is really not easy to do such a simple horse rejection.
In order to guard against enemy fire attacks, Zhuge Xiaosheng also ordered people to dig a deep fire prevention ditch around the camp and fill it with stream water. This not only prevented fire, but also provided another barrier.
This formation is completely defensive, because with their current strength, they really cannot launch an attack against the Xianbo cavalry. They can only stick to their position and kill the opponent's effective forces as much as possible.
Zhuge Xiaosheng is now worried that the opponent will have a catapult. Once this extremely destructive attack weapon is put into use, it will bring catastrophic damage to them.
Therefore, he is considering setting up a volunteer death squad. If he discovers that the opponent has a catapult, he must destroy it at any cost and never let them use it.
"We wing guards are going! We move quickly. They can't stop them when we go in, and they can't stop us when we come out." Duan Linger arrived in front of the formation early, fearing that he wouldn't be able to play in the fight. He heard that a death squad was to be formed.
, hurriedly took the initiative to ask for help.
The reason is considered sufficient, because this is also a surprise attack mission. In terms of speed, no one can beat her one hundred flying wing guards.
"I'll go for it." Xiao Ye was purely aggressive and would get excited at the sight of blood. People would be a little nervous when facing a battle, but he was really happy.
And the one hundred heroic cavalry guards under his command are indeed the most capable group in the army. Coupled with his personal leadership, the success rate may reach more than 50%!
But they are all heavily armored cavalry. It is okay to charge into the formation, but it is relatively difficult to escape. Therefore, if the Cavalry Guards enter, they will never return.
"I think our Yulin Guards are the most suitable for this task." Lu Fei also took the initiative to ask for a fight, "We don't have to get too close, as long as we are within the shooting range of my bow and arrow, we can get it done."
How to do it? Use rockets.
The catapult is made entirely of wood. It is very heavy and has little mobility. It is just a living target. With their arrow skills, they can hit it from hundreds of steps away without any problem.
But of course, the Xianbo people will also send heavy troops to strictly protect them and will never let them get close easily. They are afraid that they will be surrounded and annihilated before they can get close.
Their success rate is very low if they act alone, but if they act together, the success rate will be high.
But the higher the success rate, the higher the risk. That’s why they are called death squads. Once they go into battle, it will be difficult to escape unscathed.
"They are all my guards, let me lead them." Xiao Chen's adrenaline gradually began to surge.
My brothers and even my younger sister are joining the battle. How can I, the boss, be so timid?
nonexistent.
Don't tell me that nonsense about a coach not being able to take risks. It's not the first time that I, your boss, have taken risks!
We are here to risk our lives. Only by risking our lives can we have a chance of victory. If we lose, everyone will die!
"Okay, let's do it!" Zhuge Xiaosheng nodded in agreement without thinking.
Because the best chance of winning is to let the Knight Guards, Flying Wing Guards and Yulin Guards jointly carry out this mission, for the sake of the overall situation, this is the only way to do it.
Doesn't he know the temper of the eldest Xiao Chen? He will never watch Xiao Ye, Duan Linger, and his two younger brothers and sisters go through life and death while he watches from behind.
And the boss is right, everyone has to risk their lives in this battle, otherwise they will all be destroyed and no one will survive.
In addition, the boss, as the coach, personally led the death squads to the front, which was also a great boost to morale.
If there's something wrong with the boss here, then why don't we all fight and die together with him?
Anyway, from the moment they left Yanyunguan, everyone was already in a state of death.
If you want to survive, you have to risk your life and survive!
"Why don't you take me as the coach seriously?" Zhuge Xiaosheng agreed immediately, but Xiao Chen was a little unhappy.
"Boss, you must remember that your mission is to destroy the catapult. After the mission is completed, you must not be reluctant to fight. You must retreat immediately, but remember not to run back directly. Everyone must spread out and would rather be bitten by them.
, and you must not be surrounded by them, I will send someone to help you when the time comes." Zhuge Xiaosheng said.
"It depends on the situation. Maybe if your boss becomes self-killing, you might be able to directly seize the head of their coach among tens of millions of soldiers!" Xiao Chen's words are not completely bragging.
"Boss, if you think so, then you can't go!" Zhuge Xiaosheng said coldly, "I'd better go."
"Okay, okay, okay, why don't I just listen to you!" Xiao Chen immediately gave up.
"General Zhuge, we all listen to you!" Duan Ling'er was very happy that he succeeded in the battle, and flattered Zhuge Xiaosheng, "You are our marshal. In fact, in the planning of the battle, the victory will be won thousands of miles away.
I am talking about you!"
"Where's your armor?" Zhuge Xiaosheng didn't want to talk to her.
"I don't need it, give me my brother's silkworm clothes! Don't glare, he still has one more." Duan Linger smiled proudly.
"Hmm..." Zhuge Xiaosheng glanced at Xiao Chen and thought to himself, silly girl, don't you know that Duanmu's family only has three ounces of natural silk?
I could only cut out three silkworm clothes, one for the emperor, one for the queen mother, and this one I gave to you.
