At Shantong Pass, Yang Xun was standing on the city tower looking at the coalition camp in the distance. Seeing that they had no intention of retreating, the corner of his mouth suddenly curled up.
Yang Xun was really worried that these five mice would choose to retreat if they were afraid of being beaten.
They still have nearly 300,000 troops. If they retreat together, even if the Beiyan cavalry pursues them, it will be difficult to achieve greater results.
After all, each cavalryman has a limited number of arrows. Once they are chased away, the arrows will be exhausted and cannot be replenished.
But if they had stayed outside Shantong Pass, the Beiyan Cavalry would not have to worry about running out of arrows.
Yesterday, Yang Xun asked the entire Shantong Pass army and civilians to take action and start making arrows for Zhuge Liannu. The Beiyan cavalry could return to the city at any time to replenish them.
Today is already the third day since Yang Xun and Xue Rengui separated. If nothing else goes wrong, Xue Rengui has destroyed at least three countries, and the earliest Xianbei should have sent the news back to the coalition camp.
But the coalition camp still had no intention of evacuating at all. It was obvious that it planned to make a desperate attempt to capture Shantong Pass.
If Yang Xun guessed correctly, the five-nation coalition would not launch an attack today. After all, they had just lost the battle, experienced the pain of national subjugation, and their morale was low.
If the leaders of the five countries were not fools, they would kill pigs and sheep today so that the soldiers would have a good meal and a good rest. They would take the opportunity to mobilize the morale of the soldiers and wait for the whole army to attack tomorrow to use the cavalry to contain the Beiyan cavalry. The infantry took the opportunity to capture Shantong Pass.
But what they don't know is that they will have no chance tomorrow, because the Wuhou chariot that Yang Xun transferred from Beiyan should arrive tomorrow!
But Yang Xun didn't want them to have an easy time tonight. When they were eating and drinking, it was a good opportunity for Yang Xun to sneak up on them!
Thinking of this, Yang Xun looked at Li Ping'an aside and asked: "Ping'an, how many cavalry can Shantong Pass gather?"
Li Ping'an thought for a while and said: "Not many. The land in Liaozhou is barren and there is no pasture, so there are few horses. I should only be able to make up five or six thousand."
Five or six thousand cavalry plus 40,000 Beiyan cavalry were a little less, but Yang Xun was attacking by surprise, and it was enough to just run away after the attack!
"Go and mobilize all the cavalry immediately, and join me and the king in attacking the enemy's camp tonight!"
Li Ping'an didn't ask any more questions and hurriedly went down to make arrangements, while Yang Xun also asked Xu Ai to transfer the Beiyan cavalry back to the city.
For a time, all the horses in Shantongguan gathered together. As Li Ping'an said, there were only more than 5,000 horses.
These more than 5,000 horses were allocated to some young people in the Liaozhou army who were not injured.
After all, this is a sneak attack, and the main focus is a fast, accurate and ruthless attack. The elderly, weak, sick and disabled will definitely not be able to use it.
In a blink of an eye, night falls.
When Yang Xun came down from the tower wearing golden armor, many young soldiers who originally lived in Shantong Pass were saying goodbye to their parents.
Looking around, the fathers of many young soldiers were holding the horses and giving instructions with a serious look on their faces, while their mothers were arranging the soldiers' armor, with worries in their eyes.
This reminded Yang Xun of a saying: a strict father presses the horse's head, while a loving mother sews the battle clothes.
Just like when Yang Xun went to college in his previous life, his parents were reluctant to leave him when they dropped him off at the station.
The difference is that college students can still go home during the holidays, but some of them will never come back.
Originally this was supposed to be a heartwarming scene, but it looked like the wind was rustling and the water was cold, and it was desolate like a strong man gone and never coming back.
However, Yang Xun didn't say much. He had always stood at the rear and commanded before. This was also his first time on the battlefield.
Taking out the Overlord Gun that he had just spent 5,000 points to redeem from the system space, Yang Xun jumped onto the back of Wuyun Taxue.
"The whole army obeys the order! Let's go!"
At the same time, the coalition camp.
As Yang Xun expected, the coalition camp was cooking cattle and sheep at this time, and the leaders of the five countries even brought out their own treasured drinks, intending to use this to improve the morale of the soldiers.
Soldiers from five countries sat around campfires and ate meat, looking so harmonious.
At this moment, Wanyan Lie, the leader of the alliance, stood up and shouted loudly: "Brothers and warriors, we have just experienced a defeat, and bad news came from the rear. Xianbei was destroyed! "
Everyone was not surprised when they heard this, because they had heard about it before.
The Xianbei soldiers present lowered their heads, many even wiped away tears on the spot, and the soldiers from other countries also looked sad.
Seeing that everyone's emotions had been aroused, Wanyan Lie nodded towards Yelvzhen, who immediately stepped forward and shouted: "What's wrong, our Xianbei warriors will never bow their heads, so raise your heads!" "
"So what if we lose our home? We are nomads. Wherever we go, there is home!"
With that said, Yelvzhen pointed in the direction of Shantong Pass: "What is in front of you is Shantong Pass, and it is the gateway to Daqian! I don't need to say more about the richness of Daqian. As long as Shantong Pass is captured, Daqian will be ours." , by then you will have endless gold and silver, and endless food to eat!"
"So what if our women are snatched away? Let's go and rob Dagan's women. Dagan's women are more beautiful!"
"So what if our land is gone? Let's grab Dagan's land. Dagan's land is more fertile!"
"Warriors, raise the swords in your hands, make those Dagan people tremble, make them fear, let them die under your swords, kill them all, and build a new Xianbei!"
In an instant, Xianbei's soldiers raised their swords one after another and howled like wild beasts. Everyone had endless killing intent in their eyes!
Yes, it doesn't matter if the woman is gone, they can rob it again, but it doesn't matter if the family is gone, as long as there is a woman, there is a family!
Although the soldiers of other countries did not know that their hometowns were gone, they were also moved by Yeluzhen's words. They also wanted gold, silver, and women!
For a time, the morale of the entire coalition camp reached its peak!
Seeing this, Yelu Zhen showed a satisfied smile, pressed his hands to silence the scene, and continued: "Warriors, let's eat and drink tonight. We have enough food and wine. Tomorrow morning we will attack with all our troops and capture Shantong Pass. !”
"Take Shantong Pass!"
Everyone roared a few more times, then sat down and started eating and drinking.
Looking at the soldiers drinking happily, Pu Guochang couldn't help but frowned and looked at Wanyan Lie aside: "Leader, wouldn't it be bad if we just let the soldiers drink freely? What if Dagan comes to attack the camp? what to do?"
Hearing this, Wanyan Lie couldn't help but laugh: "Old Pu, you are so cowardly. Have you forgotten how many troops Daqian has? Then Shantongguan can only hold out thirty or forty thousand people, plus The 40,000 Beiyan cavalry are only 80,000, but we have an army of 300,000, and the total cavalry still has 70,000 or 80,000, so why do they dare to attack the camp?"
"That's right, don't worry. No matter how strong the Beiyan cavalry is, they will only dare to harass around the camp. There are so many of us, so why should we be afraid?" Tuoyehan agreed.
Yelvzhen snorted coldly and said, "If they really dare to attack the camp, it will be only if our knives are no longer sharp!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Everyone laughed and kept pouring wine into their mouths, but in the next second, arrows rained down from the sky.
