In the dark night, the gate of Jian'an City quietly opened. Lin Shihong personally led seven thousand elites out of the city like ghosts and approached the Sui army's camp.
This attack on the camp was an extremely risky operation. Lin Shihong himself knew that although he accepted Lai Hu'er's persuasion to surrender, Lai Hu'er, a warrior on the battlefield, would not necessarily relax his vigilance.
But he had no choice. The Sui army had been besieging Jian'an for almost a month. The food in the city was almost exhausted, and the people's morale was loose. If the stalemate continued, changes would inevitably occur in the city. He could only place his hope in that slim possibility.
Unknowingly, Lin Shihong's troops had approached within 500 steps of the Sui camp, but there was no reaction from the Sui camp.
"It seems that God is really helping me. He is here to protect the inattentive child and the Sui camp's defenses are empty. I will be able to reverse the defeat soon!"
Lin Shihong raised a ferocious sneer at the corner of his mouth, pointed his sword, and loudly ordered: "Attack, wipe out the enemy camp, and whoever can protect the child's head will be rewarded with thousands of taels of gold!"
"Kill!"
General Wang Rong gave a long shout and charged out first with a sword in hand. Thousands of elites behind him roared out and launched a head-on conflict towards the gate of the Sui army.
The cry of killing shook the sky and the earth, and countless Lin troops in the darkness rushed toward the Sui camp like a torrent that broke a bank.
Lin Shihong immediately raised his gun and marched behind the formation. The pride on his face could not be concealed at all and was overflowing on the surface.
"Come and protect me. I didn't expect you to capsize in the gutter. After this battle, I, Lin Shihong, will definitely become famous all over the world. Sooner or later, I will go to Jiangdu and destroy the Sui Dynasty!"
Boom, boom, boom.
Lin Shihong laughed triumphantly, and the sound of the Sui camp's war drums suddenly rose up, shocking Lin Shihong and almost falling off his horse.
The originally dark Sui army gate camp wall suddenly lit up with torches, and the three thousand crossbowmen who had been lying in wait on the camp wall for a long time immediately unfurled their bows and nocked arrows, shooting into the distance.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
In the blink of an eye, three thousand sharp arrows mixed with buzzing sounds, like a dragnet, rushed toward the enemy rushing outside the camp.
Screams suddenly rose into the sky.
Under the flickering light, the soldiers in the front row, Sergeant Lin, were shot down to the ground like fragile straw by the stormy arrow net.
The sudden rain of arrows completely frightened Lin Jun, and his originally high fighting spirit was instantly reduced to nothing.
Under the rain of arrows that filled the sky, Lin Jun fell to the ground in large numbers, and the overflowing blood soon soaked the ground under his feet into bright scarlet.
Lin Shihong's expression changed in shock, and the ferocious sneer on his face disappeared, leaving only endless astonishment on his face.
Wang Rong, who took the lead in charging ahead, was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he shouted at the top of his lungs: "Retreat, retreat quickly!"
In the Sui army's camp, Lai Hu'er rode his horse and held his sword with his eyes half open and half closed, staring coldly at the rebels outside the camp. He suddenly saw signs of the enemy's retreat, and immediately sneered disdainfully, "Fight." Just leave, how can anything in this world be so cheap?"
After saying that, he suddenly clamped his legs on the horse's belly, pointed his sword at the enemy, and shouted proudly: "Brothers, kill!"
Wuwu~wuwu~wuwu~
As soon as Lai Hu'er finished speaking, the loud and loud horn sound of killing was followed by the blowing.
The soldiers of the three armies roared in unison, and the roaring sound of killing resounded through the sky. The gates of the various camps were wide open, and tens of thousands of Sui army officers and soldiers who had been arrayed for a long time swept out like a torrent that burst through a dike, carrying their long-preserved fighting spirit.
Lin Shihong's troops were originally attacking the Sui army's camp. The two armies were so close to each other. How could they escape from the battlefield in a hasty retreat?
Lai Hu'er took the lead, followed by thousands of elites. Like an indestructible giant spear, he crashed into the enemy's formation with devastating force and instantly tore through the enemy's defense line.
Lin Jun's formation was disrupted by Lai Hu'er. In addition, General Wang Rong had already issued a retreat order. The whole army resisted for a while before falling apart and fleeing in all directions.
Led by Lai Hu'er, the officers and soldiers of the Sui army frantically chased and killed the defeated soldiers. The swords ruthlessly chopped off the enemy soldiers, and the war horses ruthlessly knocked the enemy soldiers away. The tragic howls rose into the sky, extremely shrill and endless. The empty blood soared into the sky.
"Don't be chaotic, don't be chaotic, the rear army should stabilize its formation and cover the retreat of the central army!"
In the chaos of the army, Wang Rong rushed his horse and scolded his subordinates everywhere in an attempt to save the defeat, but unfortunately no one ignored his scolding.
"Will the thief continue to fight against trapped beasts? Suffer death!"
Lai Hu'er brandished his sword and killed the stubborn resisters in front of him. Through the blood mist, he saw Wang Rong who was scolding him. He immediately galloped his horse and drove straight towards Wang Rong.
A loud shout frightened Wang Rong as if he had lost his soul. No matter what state Wang Rong was in, he rushed forward. The sword in his hand whizzed out and slashed towards Wang Rong's neck with a strong and powerful force.
In the flash of lightning, the two men passed by the wrong horse. Wang Rong's headless body twitched a few times, and fell under the horse with a thud.
Lin Shihong was guarding the formation at the back, so when the situation went bad, he immediately fled towards Jian'an City with dozens of soldiers. As he fled all the way, he secretly made up his mind to burn Jian'an City on fire immediately after entering the city, and then go to defect. Shen Faxing could not make things easier for the Sui army no matter what.
After making up his mind, Lin Shihong whipped his horsewhip several times, rushed to Jian'an City, and said sinisterly: "Come and protect me. I can't defend Jian'an City, and I won't leave it to you intact. As long as I As long as Lin Shihong is still alive, I will not let this mediocre and incompetent Sui Dynasty live a peaceful life!"
About half an hour later, Lin Shihong led a group of soldiers back to Jian'an City. When he saw the city gate was closed, he immediately shouted: "Open the door!"
Two heads poked out from the top of the city and asked loudly: "Who is it?"
When Lin Shihong heard this, he became furious and cursed: "You are so blind that you don't even recognize your general? Why don't you hurry up and open the city gate!"
The two soldiers on the top of the city looked at each other after hearing this, with a trace of unnoticed joy in their eyes, and said respectfully: "General, I have not long since joined the army, but I have only seen the general from a distance. I didn’t recognize him at first glance, so I hope you’ll forgive me!”
After hearing this, Lin Shihong became a little less angry. He said that his raid on the Sui camp was full of elites. Those who stayed in the city were either the old, weak, sick, or disabled, or newly recruited soldiers after the defeat and retreat to Jian'an. These recruits may have joined the army later and were less than ten years old. God, it’s really understandable that you don’t know yourself. He waved his riding whip and shouted loudly.
"Then come and open the city gate for me quickly!"
"Yes, yes, yes!" The two soldiers responded solemnly and hurriedly walked down the city wall.
After a while, the city gate opened with a creak.
Lin Shihong immediately entered the city on horseback. Just a few steps after entering the city gate, a sudden change occurred. A large net came overwhelmingly, covering him and his horse. Suddenly, more than a dozen sergeants rushed out from beside him, shouting in unison. They all pulled the ropes of the net, wrapped Lin Shihong and his horse in the fishing net and pulled him up.
At the same time, hundreds of Sui troops poured out from inside and outside the city gate, and all dozens of Lin Shihong's soldiers were wiped out in a matter of seconds.
A Sui general rode up to Lin Shihong, smiled slightly, and said, "General Lin, Zheng Chenggong has been waiting for you here for a long time!"
