night.
Between the mountains, apes and tigers roar constantly.
The Goguryeo army secretly gathered together and then divided into two parts. One group was commanded by Li Yunchong, and planned to take advantage of the night to head east with food, grass and baggage.
One unit is commanded by Zhao Mancheng and has tens of thousands of elite troops, planning to attack Wu Nian's camp.
Withdraw troops and make a comeback without delay.
Although they were defeated one after another, the number of Goguryeo soldiers was still 36,000, and the area was dark and filled with a murderous atmosphere.
They passed through the afternoon and took a break in the middle of the night. Morale, physical strength, and condition have all recovered, especially the more than 10,000 elite soldiers led by Zhao Mancheng. They all voluntarily followed Zhao Mancheng to attack Wu Nian's camp.
They are soldiers who fight fiercely and have courage.
Under the banners of "Zhao" and "Li", Li Yunchong said goodbye to Zhao Mancheng.
Although it was dark night, Zhao Mancheng was still wearing white armor. Under the moonlight, the armor reflected dim light. With a silver spear in hand, you can dominate the world.
Li Yun Chong was the commander of an army, and he was also very powerful.
"General Zhao, take care." After saying goodbye, Li Yunchong straightened his back and said with his hands clasped in his fists.
"General, take care, too." Zhao Mancheng clasped his fists and bent down.
Li Yunchong nodded lightly, then got on his horse, reined in the horse, and shouted: "Let's go."
The 20,000 to 30,000 Goguryeo troops escorted a lot of grain, grass, and baggage. Under the leadership of Li Yunchong, they headed east along the road.
Target, Yalu River Goguryeo.
Zhao Mancheng did not waste any time. He got on his horse, raised his silver spear, and said to the more than 10,000 warriors behind him: "My sons. Rather than being slowly eliminated, it is better to give it a try."
"Together with me and Qilin, we will pierce the sky and kill the fierce tigers of Liaodong. Kill."
The Goguryeo soldiers did not respond, but their eyes lit up and they raised their right hands in response to Zhao Mancheng.
Give it a try.
Pierce the sky and kill the fierce tigers of Liaodong.
For the Goguryeo army at this moment. Wu Nian is equivalent to the Meng Yuan Emperor. It was so powerful and terrifying that it made them unable to breathe.
The weak draw their swords on the weaker.
The strong one draws his sword against the stronger one.
Follow our general. Following the snow unicorn, the silver spear pierced the dark night, poking a hole in the sky and letting light illuminate the earth.
kill! ! ! !
Under the command of Zhao Mancheng, more than ten thousand elite soldiers headed for Wu Nian's camp with the determination to fight to the death.
.............
The military camps of Wu Nian and Zhang Sheng. Since there is no large flat land in the mountains, the camps are distributed in valleys and hills. There are four camps in total, and each camp is defended by at least two thousand households.
The fort is high and well fortified.
Despite the victory. But Wu Nianjun did not dare to slack off at all. There is a lot of defensive strength that should be available. There are soldiers everywhere, neatly dressed, armed with swords and guns, standing guard and patrolling.
They were extremely vigilant, as if tigers were coming out of the mountains at any moment.
Even though they had just won. Although the Goguryeo people suffered heavy losses, it was almost impossible to attack their camp at night.
suddenly.
The sound of warning pierced the sky.
"Enemy attack!!!!!!!!"
In an instant.
Everyone who was sleeping in the camp opened their eyes.
"Don't panic. The soldiers on guard can stop them for a while. Put on your coats and armor first, and pick up your weapons."
Inside a tent. A general flag officer calmly got off the bed and loudly ordered his soldiers. Under his command, the soldiers moved in an orderly manner.
The armored soldiers moved quickly and turned around to help the armored soldiers penetrate the armor. After dozens of men under his command were ready, the chief flag officer lined up the soldiers in front of the camp, waiting for the superior officer to mobilize.
"Go and guard the North Camp Gate." A member of the Hundred Households came to the Chief Flag Officer with another team of flag soldiers, greeted him, and then headed to the North City Gate.
"Yes." The flag officer responded and immediately led his soldiers to follow.
The soldiers of Wu Nian's army in this camp defended in an orderly manner. Just like they do during normal training.
Flowing clouds and flowing water.
The same goes for the other three camps.
In the camp where Wu Nian is located.
Inside the Chinese army's tent. Wu Nian woke up immediately. After listening to the sound for a moment, a look of surprise appeared on his face. Then he smiled and said: "Zhen Yijixiongji is just playing against me."
"He's still a little underheated."
Wu Nian knew without guessing that the one leading the attack was [Snow Qilin] Zhao Mancheng.
Zhao Mancheng's courage, martial arts, and ability to lead troops. Wu Nian had learned the lesson during the day.
There is only one person like Zhao Mancheng.
After being defeated during the day, the Goguryeo people were tired from marching, and they still had many wounded soldiers. Zhao Mancheng unexpectedly led his elite troops to attack his camp at night.
Wu Nian didn't expect it.
But Wu Nian didn't show any flaws, and Zhao Mancheng was destined to make useless efforts.
proud?
He was never proud.
Lax?
As long as he is on the battlefield, he never relaxes. Whether it is marching, forming a formation, or fighting. Wu Nianjun's actions were completely like Sun Tzu's Art of War.
It is as fast as the wind, as slow as the forest, as plundering as the fire, and as motionless as the mountain.
"Come here, prepare armor for me. Pass the order. Our fortress is very strong and the defenses are very tight. As long as we follow their usual training, there is no way we will lose."
"Take it easy."
"Also. Allocate some personnel to guard the captives. Don't let the captives interact with the Goguryeo people inside and outside."
Wu Nian sat up, bent over and put on his shoes, and said loudly.
"yes."
The soldiers outside the tent responded loudly. Someone came in and lit the lamp in the tent, and someone went down to deliver the order. When Wu Nian walked out of the inner tent, the outer tent was brightly lit, and a group of fully armed soldiers were already waiting with Wu Nian's armor.
Wu Nian was served by his own soldiers, dressed neatly, but he did not leave the tent. Instead, he sat on the Taishi chair, lying on the camp with a tiger, motionless.
After a while, Zhang Sheng, who was also neatly dressed, walked in from outside. After cupping his fists and saluting Wu Nian, he came to the seat on the right and sat down.
"General. The matter is clear. There are Goguryeo people attacking all our camps. There is no news from each camp yet. But the soldiers took a look and found that no camp has been breached."
A soldier walked in from outside and bent down to report.
"Hahaha. It's the same as what I thought. The Goguryeo people are just wasting their efforts. If our camp was so easy to capture, we would have died by the Mengyuan people's swords long ago." Zhang Sheng sneered and raised his head. At first, he was very conceited.
"That's good. If it were so easy to break through, we would be dead bones a long time ago." Wu Nian laughed, but soon calmed down and said: "So guarding the camp is just a basic skill, there is nothing to be proud of or proud of."
"What do you mean, general?" The two brothers knew each other very well. Zhang Sheng heard the implication and narrowed his eyes and asked.
"If my guess is correct, Zhao Mancheng is in charge of the attack. And Li Yunchong, I'm afraid, has already led a large group of troops along the road. Taking advantage of the silence of the night and the cool weather, he quickly headed east."
"Immediately send someone to notify Tieniu and Wang Gui, and send troops to pursue them. Just in case, send a few more waves of messengers."
"However, the Goguryeo people are still capable. They can't see clearly at night, so let them be cautious and be careful about ambushes. If you have a chance, do it. If you don't, forget it."
"The Goguryeo people are more tired than us, and there is still a long way to go back to the Yalu River. We have plenty of opportunities."
Wu Nian chuckled and took his time.
