For more than thirty miles, Wulu came very quickly.
Just as Zhou Chuang expected, at the end of the Yin hour, the sky was white, the stars were gone, and the moonlight was dim. The alarm drums in the flat valley rang loudly. Zhang Sheng, who was a little excited, led a group of guards and climbed up a hill beside the valley. He looked to the west and saw a series of torches nearly ten miles away. A long queue formed, extending towards the flat valley.
The thieves on the mountain looked at the long dragon and were silent.
I have to say, this courage alone is a bit bluffing.
Zhang Sheng looked at the swaying torch, and suddenly his heart moved.
It will be Mao hour soon, and the sky will be bright.
Wulu's manpower had to prepare and travel all night, wouldn't it be the time when they were tired? Although my own people were also nervous all night, they were not in a hurry. Comparing the two, work and rest can be seen.
Zhang Sheng made another calculation in his mind, and the corners of his mouth slowly raised.
defense?
Attack is the best defense!
Waiting for work in leisure, but not yet stable, Zhang Sheng did not want to miss such a good opportunity.
Thief, if you come here so quickly to die, don't blame me for being ruthless.
The idea of going out to attack the enemy was thrown out.
No one objected.
After everything was arranged, when it was the turn of the candidates, they ran into trouble.
"No, absolutely no way, Ah Sheng. The young and old in the valley are all counting on you to survive. I don't agree with you going out of the valley to meet the enemy, but you insist on going out of the valley. The old man can do it for you..."
After watching the enemy's situation, when Zhang Sheng proposed the idea of going out of the valley to attack the enemy, he did not expect that he would be opposed by everyone, especially Dingshan, who looked the most excited.
"A Sheng, I really can't listen to Ding Shan, so I'll go for you." Uncle Bao, an old man over sixty years old, kept trying to dissuade Zhang Sheng.
"Uncle Shan, Uncle Bao, when we go out to attack the enemy this time, I will be in the middle, with Zeng Niu in front and Uncle Shan on the left and right. It's not a big problem..." Zhang Sheng tried to fight for it.
"I can go to the Central Army in your place. I have a group of people, and the deputy commander can lead it."
Dingshan didn't wait for Zhang Sheng to finish what he said, and stopped him forcefully.
"Okay, I won't leave the valley. However, Uncle Shan, you are still the one commanding you. Zeng Niu will take my place as the central army for the time being. After leaving the valley, your actions will be coordinated with Chief Zeng. Everyone, please prepare." Zhang Sheng chose He used the word "submit", and no one noticed that he used the word "temporary generation".
"Here." Zeng Niu, Ding Shan, and Sun Fu promised loudly and went to find their own team.
Everyone then breathed a sigh of relief and started working on their own. There were only a group of guards in front of Zhang Sheng who were ready to go.
Zhou Chuang looked at Zhang Sheng's darting eyes, thought for a moment and said, "Lang Jun, I'll take Jiang Meng and the others, but you'd better stay. It's always wrong to have no one in the valley."
Depend on!
Hearing Zhou Chuang's words, Zhang Sheng withdrew his gaze and looked at Zhou Chuang with a smile on his face. However, when this guy smiled, the crescent-like scar on his face followed the wrinkled face. Instead, it was squeezed into a big, ferocious mouth, which looked particularly eye-catching in the uncertain light of the fire.
"How did you guess it?" Zhang Sheng glanced at the scar and asked with a smile.
Zhou Chuang smiled and did not answer.
"Lao Chuang, come out of the valley to attack the enemy. I still don't trust Zeng Niu. The reason why the other party dares to come so blatantly is that he must be somewhat capable. We can despise him in words, but in action, we must not underestimate the enemy. This In the battle, we need to be fierce, accurate and ruthless, use momentum to defeat the opponent with one blow. Although the people on Zeng Niu's side have been training for two or three months, after all, this is the first time they have encountered this kind of battle. Leave the secondary responsibility to him." Zhang Sheng told the truth.
"I know what you mean. I will lead Jiang Meng and the others forward, leaving Wu Hu and the others behind."
Zhou Chuang emphasized his thoughts again.
Looking at the man in front of him, Zhang Sheng was still a little moved. He understood what the other party meant. He wanted to take his original dozen brothers and leave Wu Hu and a few other old men from his past behind. Was this because he wanted to repay his kindness for rescuing him from Liu's Wubao?
"Let's go together. I won't hold you back. Huzi and the others are pretty good at it."
"You're gone, what will happen in the valley?" Zhou Chuang saw Zhang Sheng's intention and wanted to use the incident in the valley to distract him.
"Uncle Bao's stone is okay. We should be able to handle small temporary matters. As long as we hold on to the front, they won't be under too much pressure." Zhang Sheng explained...
Wulu did not give Zhang Sheng and the others any more time to talk nonsense. As bursts of exclamations and shouts rang out, a distant team of fire dragons appeared in Gushan's sight, and then the faint sound of horse hoofbeats came.
The vanguard of the Hutuo Valley arrived.
Zhang Sheng and the others came to the defense wall and saw a force that had clearly broken away from the fire dragon behind and rushed straight towards the defense wall without any scruples.
"Yitun?" Zhang Sheng visually counted a number.
"Absolutely." Uncle Fu looked at the fire.
Having a hundred cavalry as an outpost was indeed a luxury, but it was a pity to have so few horses. Zhang Sheng looked at the cavalry getting closer and closer and cursed in his heart.
Sure enough, the riding sentry had not advanced much, and everyone heard a faint neighing of horses, and then saw the fire stop in place.
"Hahahaha, let those thieves go crazy..."
"Hey, why didn't you dig a bigger hole and bury all these cowards..."
Various noises were heard near the defense wall.
Even if they are wise, they are not completely dizzy yet. It is a pity that Uncle Shitou Bao and the others have made a lot of big and small pits by picking up stones to build the defense wall.
The torches gradually accumulated until they disappeared, and the red clouds in the east filled the sky with rays of light, reflecting the red landscape in the valley.
A looming human wall filled the valley two to three hundred meters wide and marched towards the defense wall, stopping about two miles away from the defense wall. The noise was audible. The messy, dark heads were all visible, and the figures were looming. A broken flag was erected in the middle, which was particularly conspicuous. It was probably where Wulu's central army was located.
As expected!
Not long after the Wulu Bandits' team stopped, the team in front opened a passage to both sides, and a group of archers came towards the defense wall. They stopped a hundred steps away and were out of the range of the bow and arrow.
"Listen, traitor Zhang Sheng. Commander Qu has an order to put down your resistance and come out to meet you immediately. Otherwise, Commander Qu will trample through the valley and leave no chickens or dogs behind..."
The thieves' shouts rang out over and over again.
No probing attack?
Zhang Sheng looked at the dark heads outside. Many of them were lying down or lying down.
Lure the enemy? Or rest?
"Zhang Shuai, what should I do?"
As the leader who went out to attack the enemy, Zeng Niu looked at the two people waiting behind the defense wall and asked Zhang Sheng's intention somewhat at a loss. All the thieves looked nervous, waiting for Zhang Sheng's decision.
what to do?
This is also what Zhang Sheng is considering.
According to the unfortunate man's previous experience of following the Yellow Turban Army, the Yellow Turban Army would always make a tentative attack when they attack Wubao or counties. Therefore, Zhang Sheng's arrangement of going out of the valley to attack the enemy was also based on that plan.
The enemy attacks tentatively and seizes the opportunity to attack in the flat valley. In this way, the men and horses of both sides will be entangled together, and the other side's soldiers will serve as shields to block arrows.
Now, if the opponent does not attack, and we rush out of the valley to attack the enemy, the last distance will be the graveyard of the ant soldiers. At that time, when someone sets up an arrow formation, aren't their soldiers with zero armor their targets?
Not leaving the village?
Let the other party rest? Give up the opportunity to wait for work?
Not willing to give in!
what to do? What to do?
