The Eldest Daughter Is Beautiful and Saucy
Chapter 434: In the middle
Chapter 434: Falling into a Trap
“Black sail and white python flag! It’s the black sail and white python flag! Come to the right quickly!” The Liang soldier howled as if he had seen a ghost.
“Report…” The soldiers who were blinded by the heavy rain rushed to the commander’s tent and shouted with fists clasped, “Report to the commander! The Jin army is attacking from three sides. The commanders of the Jin army, Liu Hong and Lin Kangle, are leading the troops personally. On both sides are the black sail, white python flag and the Fu character flag!”
The soldiers kneeling outside the general’s tent looked back and said, “Commander-in-chief, please leave the camp immediately to prevent any accidents!”
It will be too late if you are any later!
The commander-in-chief Liu Hong, Lin Kangle, Fu Ruoxi, and one more person… Bai Qingyan, the person Xun Tianzhang fears the most, the most powerful generals of the Jin army are all here!
Xun Tianzhang suddenly caught the inspiration that he always missed, and his face turned pale in an instant: “Oh no! We’ve fallen into a trap! Quick! Send someone to quickly catch up with General Xun who is heading to Pingming Road, and have him turn around and rush to the rescue immediately. The main force of the Jin army is attacking the camp! Quick!”
The moment he heard the black sail and white python flag, Xun Tianzhang knew what the inspiration that had eluded him was. He was too careless and fell into the trap!
He thought he saw through the war situation and believed that Bai Qingyan had noticed that he had sent people to monitor the grain route and knew his intention to divide and devour the Jin army that was robbing the grain route. That was why he destroyed the rest of the grain routes except for one. His main purpose was to cut off the Liang army’s food supplies and make them lose without a fight.
Especially when he heard that Bai Qingyan and Fu Ruoxi were leading troops to Pingming Road, Xun Tianzhang became more certain of his idea, so he sent his son to lead a large force to Pingming Road, intending to defeat the main force of the Jin army in one battle. Unexpectedly, the Jin army actually lured the tiger away from the mountain and turned to attack Liangying!
Xun Tianzhang thought he was the one who was waiting behind him, but he never expected that a python would appear behind him!
Xun Tianzhang felt a chill down his spine and his pupils, which were filled with red bloodshot, trembled. He was afraid that his son would not be able to bring his troops back in time, and that part of the Liang army’s strength would be lost in this battle.
What’s more terrifying… Daliang has been intimidated by the Bai family army for decades and dared not make any rash moves. Now, the granddaughter of Bai Weiting, the commander of the Bai family army, Bai Shuai, has arrived. She defeated the enemy in three moves and captured the Liang army’s fierce general Zhao Tong alive, which has frightened the Liang soldiers! If they win this battle again, the morale of the Liang army will definitely drop greatly. How can they win if they are afraid of the black sail and white python flag again? !
“Commander, please leave the camp first and reunite with General Xun!” The Liang army generals outside the big tent were still pleading.
Xun Tianzhang thought it through and calmed down. He gritted his teeth, put on his helmet, walked to the sword rack, picked up the sword, and strode out of the tent.
He was the commander of an army, how could he escape when the enemy attacked his camp? !
If he ran away, it would mean he had admitted defeat! The morale of the Liang soldiers would surely plummet, and there would be no possibility of winning!
Seeing Xun Tianzhang’s desire to fight ahead of time, the generals of the Liang army outside the tent hurriedly stopped him and said, “Master, you can’t do that!”
Xun Tianzhang ignored the obstruction and came out of the general’s tent in the rain, shouting: “Tell the generals in the camp to come immediately!”
Xun Tianzhang calmed himself down and immediately summoned his generals to make quick adjustments and arrangements. The Liang camp, which had been in chaos due to being caught off guard, gradually became orderly again.
“General Liu, General Li, lead the troops to defend the right side! General Shi and General Sima defend the left side! The heavy cavalry immediately put on their armor and gather in the camp for orders! General Qian will lead the infantry to surround the heavy cavalry, wait for my order, and go out of the camp with the heavy cavalry to kill all the Jin army! We must let the Jin army know that we Liang army are wolves! Not sheep! We must make the Jin army afraid! Let the Jin army see the flag of our Liang army and be so scared that they will hide in the city and dare not fight!”
“kill!”
“kill!”
“kill!”
The Liang army was in high spirits, and all the generals quickly made preparations in an orderly manner according to Xun Tianzhang’s arrangements.
Liu Hong was sitting on a tall horse at the rear of the army. The rain was too heavy and visibility was extremely low, so it was obviously impossible to send orders using military flags. In this battle, they could only rely on messengers.
Before leaving, Bai Qingyan had specifically told Liu Hong that in this battle… if he wanted an old general like Xun Tianzhang, who had fought all his life, to believe that the Jin army was really trying to lure the tiger away from the mountain to attack the Liang camp, he needed to fight with the posture of not returning until the Liang army was destroyed. Don’t be lucky enough to think that this battle was just to lure the Liang army into Longyang City. Any mistake would result in all the previous efforts being wasted.
Liu Hong understood this principle, but if Bai Qingyan had not reminded him before leaving, Liu Hong would definitely not be willing to spend so much money to fight.
At the command of the commander Liu Hong, the messengers rode their horses and rushed to the front in the storm, shouting, “Heavy Shield Battalion, get ready!”
“Heavy Shield Battalion, prepare!”
“Heavy Shield Battalion, prepare!”
When Xun Tianzhang climbed up to the observation tower, he heard the Jin army’s messenger shouting orders on the fastest horses at the front of the Jin army.
The Jin army’s archery battalion, which was shooting arrows at the Liang army’s camp, retreated quickly. The heavy shield battalion raised their shields and marched forward with heavy and orderly steps. The heavy black iron shields fell to the ground one after another, splashing countless blood-red mud.
The heavy rain washed away the bodies of the fallen soldiers, and the current scene was probably a river of blood.
The soldiers of the Jin army’s heavy shield battalion roared and advanced steadily towards the Liang camp. All the arrows shot by the Liang army were blocked by their shields.
The Heavy Shield Battalion was approaching first, which was not a good sign. Xun Tianzhang turned around and said, “Heavy Cavalry, prepare!”
In the Liang army camp, the heavy cavalry had already assembled according to Xun Tianzhang’s instructions, and only Xun Tianzhang needed to give the order.
The horses of the heavy cavalry battalion were wearing chain mail, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed, and the heavy cavalry were completely covered in thick armor.
The sound of war drums and horns from the Jin State opposite was very urgent.
Xun Tianzhang gritted his teeth and took the opportunity to boost morale: “Comrades of the Heavy Cavalry Battalion! You are the sharpest blade of our Liang State! You must help the Liang Army’s elite soldiers behind you to break through the Jin Army’s heavy shields! Just like an arrow piercing the Jin people’s chest! As long as the Jin State loses its heavy shields! Our Liang Army’s elite soldiers can kill all of their Jin soldiers like slaughtering pigs and sheep! I… will beat the drum for you here! Whoever kills the most enemies in this battle will be credited as the first meritorious! Kill!”
“Brothers of the Heavy Cavalry Battalion! Charge!”
Led by the generals, the Liang army’s heavy cavalry battalion rushed out of the camp with horses neighing and people roaring. Countless horse hooves stepped into the blood-red mud and splashed countless mud.
“The Liang army’s heavy cavalry is attacking! Get ready! Get ready!” the messenger shouted on horseback.
Xun Tianzhang gritted his teeth, grabbed the archer who was shooting arrows on the lookout, and shouted, “Shoot down the Jin army’s messenger!”
“yes!”
The archer took aim at the messenger, held his breath and shot his arrow!
With one arrow, he shot down the Jin army’s messenger who was running wildly in the heavy rain.
“Good job!” Xun Tianzhang patted the archer’s shoulder vigorously, “After this battle, if you are still alive, go find General Xun!”
“Yes!” The archer’s eyes lit up, and he was immediately eager to fight and worked even harder.
But before the archer could draw his bow again, a feathered arrow suddenly pierced the archer’s throat and pierced into the log of the lookout tower, and the bloody arrow feathers trembled.
