At night, Xuanjun camp.
"Report~~~~"
A spy hurried in, knelt down on one knee, stepped in and saluted.
"Your Majesty, we noticed a sudden movement of the enemy troops!"
"Pretend not to know and everything goes as planned."
"promise!"
After he left, Wang Su took the lead and said: "It seems that the ghost army saw that my camp was slack and was ready to launch a surprise attack."
"Well, then let's ambush him." King Xuan nodded.
Wang Su added: "However, I beg your Majesty to move temporarily. This place is somewhat dangerous. You are the king of a country. If anything goes wrong, the country will be in danger."
"Yes, Your Majesty, Your Majesty is right. After the ghost army's surprise attack, there will definitely be chaos. If an enemy attacks the Chinese army's tent, things will inevitably change." Xie Hongling said worriedly.
When King Xuan heard this, he was not pretentious, but looked directly at Yan Qi: "That's fine, the war here will be left to General Yan Qi. Make sure the ghost army never comes back!"
"Yes! Please rest assured, Your Majesty!" The latter immediately bent down and clasped his fists.
On the other side, the ghost general Kaduo, under the orders of the Ghost King, led 40,000 ghost troops and was quietly ambushing the Xuan Army camp.
If the Ghost King wants to lose his soldiers to protect his chariot, he can only abandon these 40,000 horses. If the number is small, it will not be able to contain the enemy.
There was nothing unusual along the way, and he easily arrived outside the Xuanjun camp. Kaduo Mao crouched in a secret place, looked at the camp gate in front, and said excitedly: "It seems that His Majesty the King is right, Xuanjun really didn't Any defense.”
As he spoke, he also gestured forward.
The crossbowmen behind him understood, and immediately bent their bows to nock the arrows, drawing them to full length in an instant.
Flutter, flutter, random arrows shot out. In front of the camp gate, Xuan Jun seemed to have fallen to the ground. Cardo immediately straightened up and drew out his scimitar: "Warriors! Charge -"
"Kill--"
The strange screams of the ghost army instantly echoed through the night sky.
It was only then that Xuan Jun finally reacted: "Enemy attack! There is an enemy attack -"
But in Kado’s view, it’s already too late!
He held a scimitar and took the lead in the charge. Near the camp gate, he stood up and pointed his scimitar: "Charge! Charge quickly! The Xuan army is defenseless!"
Behind them, there were countless ghost soldiers. After hearing what they said, they screamed with excitement. They all held their scimitars high and poured into the village gate crazily.
The Xuan troops nearby screamed in surprise, threw away their weapons, turned around and ran away.
"Haha! Kill them all! Kill them all——"
Kaduo looked up and smiled when he saw this. He didn't expect that the battle would be so easy and he broke through the Xuan Army's camp gate.
More and more ghost soldiers rushed in.
Some of the Xuan army officers and soldiers fled for their lives, while others fought and retreated. In just a moment, they were already in a rout.
Cardo became more and more excited and kept yelling at his command. Not only him, but also the ghost soldiers below. Seeing that the enemy was vulnerable, his arrogance increased.
As for the size of the camp where hundreds of thousands of troops were stationed, it could be said to stretch for miles, with tents one after another.
In the camp, there were ghost soldiers everywhere holding torches in their left hands and scimitars in their right hands. I don’t know how long it had passed, and Cardo didn’t know how deep he had gone. But when I looked up again, there was no one else around except my own soldiers. A Xuanjun soldier arrived.
"Where are the people!? Where are the people!?"
As Cardo shouted loudly, everyone began to look around blankly, with confusion on their faces.
Obviously, they had all been dazzled by the victory before and did not realize it at all.
Someone also opened the camp tent nearby, checked, and shouted back: "General, there is no one in the tent!"
"There's no one here either..."
"How come these Xuan troops suddenly disappeared..."
Hearing the responses from the soldiers around him, Cardo's heart suddenly sank, and his expression suddenly changed: "Not good!"
But now I realize something is wrong, it’s too late!
As soon as he finished speaking, countless soldiers of the Xuan Army stood up on the walls of the village on both sides, and the clattering sound of armors almost became one continuous sound.
"Fire the arrow!"
A general shouted loudly, and with an order, all the soldiers released their fingers, and the sharp arrows left their strings, dense as rain, from the walls on both sides, gathered in the middle, and shot down hard.
Plop, plop!
The sound of an arrow entering flesh was heard instantly, mixed with one after another miserable howls.
Before any of the ghost soldiers could react, they were shot to the ground and nailed into hedgehogs.
In an instant, a large piece of it had fallen.
But how could this end? After Xuanjun shot one round of arrows, another round followed.
Hitting the low with high, and shooting arrows from both sides towards the middle, the effect can be imagined.
The arrows kept flying, and the ghost army suddenly became a mess amidst the howling that never stopped. Many people began to wave their scimitars desperately and block randomly.
Ding-ding sounds filled everywhere, and a ghost army general hurriedly approached Cardo, shouting urgently: "General! We have fallen into a trap! What should we do now!"
That’s what he said! Cardo was not blind. He stared and roared, pushed the general away, then raised his sword and roared: "Warriors! Kill! Kill back! Fight out of the Xuan army's ambush circle-"
Under his command, the ghost soldiers finally found the backbone and began to follow him, rushing towards the gate of the camp.
The walls on both sides of the village were lined with soldiers of the Xuan Army, and the random arrows never stopped. It could be said that Kaduo ran all the way, leaving behind corpses along the way.
At the same time, the village gate was closed and blocked by more than a dozen resisting horses. Then, rows of infantry soldiers appeared out of nowhere and stood in formation near the village gate.
The heavy shields hit the ground, and the halberds were facing forward like thorns behind them.
The ghost army is still charging this way, and countless people have been shot down along the way.
This is really a case of beating the dog behind closed doors.
After finally escaping to the village gate, Kaduo was not only dumbfounded when he saw the scene in front of him, but all the ghost soldiers also stopped subconsciously, and then became panicked.
But before they could react in the next step, with the thunder of war drums, countless Xuan army soldiers came from all directions. Then the front row squatted half-crouched, their bows and crossbows were raised, and the back row drew their bows and loaded arrows.
Around the walls, countless people were waving weapons and shouting.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
Under such circumstances, the ghost soldiers all turned pale, held scimitars in their hands, and involuntarily rubbed their backs.
Right in front, Xie Hongling smashed his spear on the ground, looked at Cardo and smiled coldly: "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
The latter's Adam's apple slipped first and he swallowed hard. Then he looked left and right. Seeing that there was no way to escape, he immediately gritted his teeth and roared fiercely: "Come! Fight them -"
Under his order, the ghost soldier could only shout, mustered up his courage, and charged forward.
Another round of dense arrow rain!
Under direct fire, the ghost army fell down in a row instantly.
Earlier, they had been shot by arrows from both sides along the way, and the number of casualties could be imagined. Now with just this few people, it was completely suicide.
Even if they can break through the arrows, what awaits them is a heavy shield and a halberd.
