Your fiefdom gains one soldier every second, what should you do, Queen Mother?
Chapter 12: Rain of Arrows is Coming!
After hearing the news, Zhang Fei asked Ying Xuanze: "Brother, should we close the city gate immediately? I will have the archers ambush here!"
Ying Xuanze shook his head: "No hurry, let's go check how many troops they have."
"Yide, lead a thousand elite soldiers and move forward five miles. The mountain path there is full of rocks and they are very large, which is very suitable for hiding."
"Take your men and ambush there. If there aren't many bandits coming, wait for my signal and act accordingly."
"If I light the red smoke, you block from the rear, and I will lead the army to attack from the front to complete the encirclement!"
"If you don't have any points, remember not to rush into battle! After I defeat the main force of the bandits head-on, they will definitely flee the same way they came."
"You lead your troops to attack at this time and catch them off guard!"
"Yes!" After he finished speaking, Zhang Fei went to select his men and horses to rush to the ambush point mentioned by Ying Xuanze.
A moment later, the spy came riding again.
"Report! My lord! Those who came here are definitely bandits! They number about 4,000!"
Ying Xuanze nodded. He ordered his men to close the city gates tightly, and then arranged for the archers to sit on the ground to hide their bodies.
He deployed the remaining people in the streets and alleys near the back of the city gate. In case the city gate was breached, these soldiers would be used to ambush and kill the bandits who rushed in.
As for the 500 cavalrymen, he deployed them on the avenue behind the city gate. No matter whether the city gate was breached or they were actively pursuing the enemy, the role of these cavalrymen was to break up the bandits' formation!
All that's left is to wait for the bandits to take the bait...
It was a dark night with a strong wind that blew up dust.
Xu Dali led the main force of his Duotian Village and headed straight for Gaoliu City, with him and several deputy village chiefs in the lead, and the rest of his elite subordinates following behind. There were a total of more than seven or eight hundred horses galloping on the road.
The remaining bandits followed behind them. These people were extremely fast and in neat formation, and it was obvious that they were well-trained.
It is said that the bandits in Xiliang are fierce and extremely difficult to eliminate. Now it seems that the saying is true!
Zhang Fei, who was buried in the rocks, felt the ground shaking. He asked his troops to hide themselves, and he stuck his head out to look at the situation outside.
He watched Xu Dali and his men rush over, and a moment later, he saw another group of infantry running past.
Seeing so many people, Zhang Fei felt a little worried about his lord, and thought about taking some men to block them from the rear.
"No, my lord wants me to ambush here. He must have a plan. I can't disobey military orders!" Zhang Fei quickly persuaded himself.
He retracted his head and waited quietly for his lord's signal.
On the other side, Xu Dali led his men to the outside of Gaoliu City early. Looking at the closed city gate, he laughed disapprovingly.
"Did these useless people guarding the city get their brains stuck in the door today? I brought people here, but not only did they not open the city gate to welcome me, they even closed the gate to refuse me? They are really tired of living."
"Boss, could it be that because the Marquis of Zhenxi has arrived and the people in the city feel they have a backer, that's why they closed the city gates?" Huang Yi whispered beside Xu Dali.
"Humph, what kind of trouble can a marquis without any soldiers cause? I think it's just that we haven't dealt with these people for too long. Wings won!"
Fourth boss Zhang Wei sneered and said, "Let's rush in and kill a bunch of civilians first. Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys. See if they dare to do it again in the future!"
Xu Dali had an excited look on his face, unable to suppress his inner restlessness. He was already imagining the scene of himself lying on top of the beauty and moving up and down.
"Wait for other brothers to arrive, then we'll break in! Kill them all for me! Everyone will be rewarded!" Xu Dali licked his lips and said excitedly.
"Okay, Boss!" the thieves responded loudly.
A moment later, the several thousand infantrymen arrived and Xu Dali ordered his men to rest for a while.
He asked Zhang Wei to step forward and shout to the soldiers guarding the city so that they could see the situation clearly and open the door quickly.
Ying Xuanze took the bow and arrow from an archer, then he stood up and aimed at Zhang Wei who was shouting at the bottom of the city gate in the light of the fire.
At this moment Xu Dali suddenly frowned. As a bandit leader, his sense of murderous intent was sharper than that of ordinary people.
He sensed a murderous aura on the city wall, which made him feel uneasy.
He looked up at the moon. For some reason, the moonlight tonight seemed so bright that it didn't seem real.
"Is there an ambush on the city wall? Otherwise, even if these guards had ten thousand guts, they would not dare not open the gate..."
As soon as he finished speaking, a whistle was heard in the air!
Ying Xuanze released the string in his hand, and the sharp arrow immediately tore through the air and pierced Zhang Wei's throat at an extremely fast speed.
Zhang Wei fell to the ground on horseback, and Xu Dali finally reacted.
"There are enemies! There are enemies!"
Ying Xuanze gave the bow to the archer, and then he waved his hand, and hundreds of archers who were ambushing on the city wall stood up at the same time.
"shoot!"
The archers shot the arrows in their hands, and then they took out new arrows from the quiver and shot them at high speed!
The bandits looked up and saw a large rain of arrows flying towards them.
Since the terrain outside the city is not large and they are all close to each other, the hit rate of these arrows is extremely high!
In an instant, wailing sounds resounded outside Gaoliu City, and the people in the city who were originally sleeping were awakened by the howling.
"Oh my god! What's going on outside the city? Are the bandits coming again?"
When they heard the word "bandits", they trembled all over. The fierce bandits from Yingchuan had become a nightmare in their hearts.
"Quick! Prepare the food! We'll hand it over to these bandits later!"
.......
Xu Dali grabbed a bandit and held him in front of him, and several sharp arrows pierced the man.
"Boss! There is an ambush! Let's retreat!" Huang Yi shouted to Xu Dali while dodging the sharp arrows.
"Find a place to hide! How many people does this Marquis of Zhenxi have? He doesn't have many arrows!" Xu Dali shouted.
He was unwilling to go back like this. There were a lot of treasures in this city. How could he give up the meat that was almost in his mouth?
But how could Ying Xuanze let these bandits catch their breath? He had 10,000 arrows, so why would he worry about not being able to kill these bandits?
The bandits hid for a while, but the rain of arrows above their heads never stopped.
"That's not right, boss! We've been at the fifth or sixth wave, how come the Marquis of Zhenxi still has arrows?" Huang Yi covered his injured left arm and shouted to Xu Dali again.
Xu Dali was also puzzled. Didn’t they just say in Yunqing Village that the Marquis of Zhenxi only had a few servants and guards?
Even if they have bows and arrows, plus a hundred or so soldiers guarding the city, how much fighting power can they have?
In an instant, his eyes narrowed and his whole body shook violently!
Could it be that the Marquis of Zhenxi was pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger? In fact, he brought troops with him, otherwise how could he explain the current situation?
Thinking of this, he cursed Zhao Hu, Wu Meng and Li Kui, three bastards.
"Brothers, retreat! Retreat quickly! There's an ambush! We'll fight another day!"
Xu Dali found his horse while shouting. He climbed on the horse and immediately drove away from the city at full speed.
