The first thousand two hundred and eighty chapters night attack under the star city
Chapter 1,280 Night Attack on Star City
There must be no problem with Gao Shun. He is now afraid that the other party will give up going to Star City and directly attack Taishi Ci's tribe going south.
Although the opponent only has about ten thousand cavalry, if the opponent seizes the gap between Taishi Ci's attack on the city wall, directly makes a sneak attack, and cooperates with the troops in the city, Taishi Ci will be defeated.
Several people on fast horses left Zhongxing City and ran wildly in the direction of Lower Star City.
Taishi Ci's more than 40,000 troops attacked Xia Xing City for a day and then retreated. It was not that he did not want to take Xia Xing City, but that he was not in a hurry at all. He knew Xia Xing City's defenses very well and the city walls were high.
Hou, it is simply impossible to attack violently. This is just an appetizer.
At dawn the next day, the army came out of camp again and surrounded Xiaxing City. It was still the same. The attacks were sparse, as if they were acting, and they did not put any pressure on the enemy at all.
"General, why did you do this?
As long as we focus on attacking, it shouldn't be a problem to take down Star City."
Seeing that Tai Shici still had not decided to launch a forceful attack, the captain under his command also frowned, wondering what he was going to do.
"The first priority is to attack the city, and the first priority is to attack the heart. I know better than you how tough Xiaxing City's defense is. Although a strong attack can defeat the opponent, our losses will also be huge.
The reason why I ordered the army to attack in the same way is just to paralyze the opponent. Tonight is the time to take down Star City."
Taishi Ci was indeed unhurried. The ultimate reason why he did this was to paralyze the opponent and make them relax their vigilance, and wait until night to cooperate with the secret passage to completely capture Xiaxing City.
It was Labilaqua again. On the day of the attack, seeing that the time was almost up, Taishi Ci directly ordered the soldiers to withdraw their troops and return to camp.
"General, the enemy has withdrawn."
When the enemy was seen retreating, someone immediately reported to Bental.
"It is said that the Chinese army is powerful, but it is nothing more than that now. The army is resting."
Bantar also nodded when he heard the news. He originally thought that the other party would be such a powerful existence, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that. Compared with the second-rate garrison troops in the Kushan Empire, they are still inferior. If he wants to rely on
With such a force, it is simply impossible to capture Xiaxing City that they are defending.
Since the other party was nothing more than that, Bantar had nothing to worry about. He directly ordered the army to rest and went down to rest himself.
"General, what should we do?"
While Taishi Ci's army was resting in the camp, Hariwan also led 10,000 cavalry to the outside of Xiaxing City.
"What do you think?"
Harrivan glanced at Enter and asked him what he thought.
"I don't recommend attacking the camp at night."
When Enter heard Harrivan asking this, he knew that he wanted to attack the camp at night, so he directly spoke out his thoughts.
"Why?"
A trace of doubt flashed in Harrivan's eyes. They also explored the situation in Lower Star City. The other party must not know about our move south, otherwise they would definitely not lead their troops to attack the city. This would not be the right time for a sneak attack.
"What I said again is that we don't know what the other party's situation is. What if all this is just for show?
We only have these 10,000 cavalry now, if we really turn in, we will lose completely."
Enter's current calmness does not look like that of a young man at all, but rather like that of a veteran who has experienced many battles. Now he would rather miss than be ambushed.
"Do you want us to rest temporarily and wait for the enemy to attack the city tomorrow, and then directly attack their rear team and defeat them in one fell swoop?"
Hariwan is not stupid. There are only two ways in front of them. One is to attack at night. Before Taishi Ci has received the news that his cavalry is going south, he will attack the camp at night and defeat it.
The other option is to wait temporarily until he leads his army to attack Xingcheng during the day tomorrow, then directly send troops to defeat him in one fell swoop.
Now Enter didn't agree with attacking the camp at night. It was obvious that he wanted to take the second route.
"That's right. I think we would rather let it go now than make a mistake. I hope the general will think twice."
Enter saluted directly to Harrivan and told him his suggestion.
"Okay, then tell the soldiers to rest temporarily and prepare for a decisive battle with the enemy tomorrow."
"The general is wise."
Hearing that Hariwan had adopted his suggestion, Enter was relieved. Fortunately, the other party hadn't gone crazy yet, otherwise he was afraid that it would be a disaster if there was a night attack.
As soon as the second watch came, Taishi Ci opened his eyes and looked at the moon hanging in the sky, with a smile on his lips.
"Command the army to move."
Following Tai Shici's order, more than 40,000 soldiers and horses in the camp instantly left the camp and tiptoed towards Xiaxing City. At the same time, a 3,000-strong Tiger Army soldiers quickly
Arrive at the location of the secret passage and walk toward the city through the secret passage.
The choice of the secret passage was still at the corner of the city. The attack in the past two days was indeed effective. The enemy did not look down on Taishi Ci's army outside the city. This would indeed underestimate the enemy. There was no defense against the inside of the city, and it was even more unexpected that the enemy would
There is a sneak attack through a secret passage.
The Tiger Army marched very fast and quickly arrived in Xiaxing City.
"Let's go, take the east gate."
Captain Yuan Che saw the three thousand tiger troops rushing out of the secret passage. Without hesitation, he directly ordered the east gate to be captured to open the passage for the army.
The three thousand fierce tiger troops moved like the wind, killing from hiding places and running directly towards the east gate.
"who?"
Although Bantar and the soldiers of Xiaxing City disdained the Taishi Cijun outside the city, it did not prove that they were blind. It would be really strange if such a group of people came and could not see them.
"kill."
Seeing that he was discovered by the enemy, Yuan Che did not hesitate and directly ordered his soldiers to speed up the attack.
"The enemy is attacking, the enemy is attacking, beat the drum quickly."
Hearing the shouts of death and the beating of drums, Bantar, who was resting, was awakened directly and rushed outside to ask for news.
"General, do you listen?
General Yuan Che launched."
Not only the people in Xiaxing City heard the beating of drums and shouts of death, but Taishi Ci's side in the distance also heard it, and someone immediately came to report to Taishi Ci.
"All of them, kill them."
Taishi Ci nodded and directly ordered the soldiers to charge to Xingxing City.
"Reporting to the general, there is enemy information."
As soon as Taishi Ci's army moved into action, Hariwan's scouts over there immediately turned back to report to Hariwan.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing the scout's words, Hariwan jumped up in excitement.
"The enemy army suddenly came out of camp and attacked Xiaxing City. I suspect they are planning to attack the city at night."
The scout directly told the news that Taishi Ci's army had left the camp.
"Haha, you can't blame me for seeking death. I ordered the whole army to prepare for the attack."
Hearing that the opponent was actually planning to attack Star City at night, how could Hariwan stay still? He directly ordered the cavalry to prepare for the attack.
"General, think twice before you act. The other party suddenly decided to attack at night. We still don't know why. If the other party has got the news about our going south and deliberately staged this drama in order to lure us out, then we will
It’s over.”
When Enter heard the news, his eyes were full of anxiety. The enemy suddenly launched a night attack. He didn't know if they were doing it on the spur of the moment or if they wanted to lure him out.
If it was an impromptu move, it would naturally be an opportunity. If it was really a trick by the other party, these 10,000 cavalrymen might be finished immediately.
"How long has this been? You still have so many worries. I have told you long ago that it is good to be cautious, but if you are too cautious, you will lose many opportunities. I have made up my mind and the whole army will attack."
Hariwan also had a headache. Originally, he felt that these few defeats had made him grow a little, but now it seems that this is no longer growth, but a backlash. The other party has now lost courage. Everything is a conspiracy, too special
My balls hurt.
"As commanded."
Enter also knew that what he said was a bit exaggerated, but these were very possible situations, but Hariwan was the general. If he wanted to attack, he could only sacrifice his life to accompany him.
There was still fierce fighting in the city. The Kushan army fought in a hurry and was directly attacked by the Hu Lie army. The east gate was opened and the city gate was opened, opening the passage for Taishi Ci's army.
"Take back the city gate for me."
Bantar finally led his men to the city gate. Looking at the opened city gate, his head was about to explode.
The enemy's sneak attack on the city gate must be to open a passage for the army outside the city. Now that the city gate has been captured, I believe that the opponent's army is rushing here. If he cannot seize the city gate immediately, then Xiaxing City will be finished.
.
"Fire the arrow."
A hail of arrows appeared instantly and shot at the Tiger Soldiers stationed at the city gate.
"Shield, defense."
Seeing the rain of arrows coming, Yuan Che directly ordered the army to defend with shields.
"Charge forward and kill."
After withstanding the rain of arrows, a cold light flashed in Yuan Che's eyes and he directly ordered the soldiers to charge forward.
"kill."
The Tiger Army charged forward and directly entered Bantar's army. As the first-class army in the Chinese Empire, their combat power was naturally the best.
Two thousand people faced nearly 10,000 enemies without the slightest hint of cowardice. With their pure jade swords and iron shields, they killed the Bantar army in a hurry.
"Idiot, stop me. They are only one or two thousand people. We have more than ten thousand people. Kill them."
Seeing that his more than 10,000 men were being beaten back by 2,000 men, Bantar was almost angry to death. He didn't understand what kind of medicine the enemy had taken and why he suddenly became so fierce.
"kill."
Hearing Bantar's words, the remaining soldiers were also stunned. Yes, the opponent only has 2,000 people, and he has more than 10,000. He will fight to kill them even if he fights hard.
Just as the two sides were fighting for control of the east gate, Taishi Ci finally led his army to the bottom of the city wall.
"rush."
Looking at the east gate that was still open, Taishi Ci gave an order for the soldiers to enter the city through the gate.
"Rumble."
Taishi Ci's army of more than 10,000 troops entered the city, but suddenly the sound of hooves rumbled outside the city, and Hariwan finally reached the battlefield with his cavalry.
"Armored cavalry in front, light cavalry behind, crush them."
Seeing that the enemy was entering the city through the city gate, Harrivan knew that the time was urgent and gave an order directly, ordering the armored cavalry in front and the light cavalry in the rear to attack the enemy.
The strength of the armored cavalry was naturally extraordinary. They charged like a tank and directly defeated Taishi Ci's rear team, and then continued to advance without stopping.
"What's going on behind the scenes?"
Hearing the sound of horse hoofbeats from behind, Taishi Ci couldn't help but frowned. The sound was the sound of galloping war horses, but he had no cavalry at all.
"General, nearly ten thousand cavalry suddenly rushed out from the rear. They led with the armored cavalry. The light armored cavalry behind them have been defeated by the enemy and are now heading towards the city gate."
Soon someone reported the news to Taishi Ci in front.
"No, close the city gate. Close the city gate quickly and order the soldiers in the rear to disperse immediately to avoid the enemy's cavalry."
Taishi Ci felt that his brain was about to explode. He was about to take down Star City. Who knows how such a cavalry suddenly appeared, which really made him very depressed.
This city gate cannot be opened as soon as it is opened, or closed as soon as it is closed. The gate of the city is already marching quickly, and the enemy's cavalry will rush it, and the city gates will be blocked in an instant.
"General, the city gate cannot be closed at all now. The soldiers have been blocked together. The enemy's cavalry is about to attack. What should we do?"
Another captain came to report to Taishi Ci about the situation at the city gate. It was now impossible to close the city gate. If we didn't think of a way, it would probably be broken through by the enemy's cavalry.
"Instruct all the soldiers to go to the city wall immediately, then transfer the army through the city wall to the North City, evacuate from the North City, and retreat into the woods."
