At night, a total of 5,000 people from the Ming army left the city.

The night attack is about surprise, but the number of troops is second.

At night, the more troops there are, the more difficult it is to command and control. After a melee, it is even possible for one's own side to fight with one's own troops.

Therefore, the night raid troops are more expensive than good.

Five thousand people are led by Fang Guoan's general Xu Wenwei. The risk of night attacks is too high, and Fang Guoan will naturally not go out in person.

After leaving the city, they did not light the torch, but moved forward through the night.

This kind of marching has a high risk factor. If you accidentally trip over a stone, the spear in your hand will pierce the robe.

Therefore, the advance of the Ming army was very slow, and it took only half an hour for a few miles.

Walking in the forefront is a group of elite teams, they are responsible for solving Wu Jun's open and secret whistle, to prevent the army from being discovered.

The elite team has a total of 20 people. Among them, there are also some capable people and strangers. For example, they have personal ears that are particularly good, and they can hear subtle movements.

There is also a very good look, you can see farther and clearer than others at night.

His task is to look for the sentry who discovered Wu Jun.

"There are two on the mound on the left, and two under the big tree over there."

The stranger quickly spotted four guards who were watching the night.

"Are there only four? Are there any secret whistles?"

The head of one hundred households who led the team asked, he felt that the four sentries were a little bit short, and there should be some secret sentries that had not been discovered.

"No, just these four."

The alien said.

"You can guarantee it? You can't afford it if you break the general's affairs."

The head of a hundred households gave a warning, and the stranger reluctantly observed it again, and finally determined that there were only four.

"The action must all be killed, not let go of one."

The head of the hundred households gave the order to act, and the team divided into two teams and touched the two guard posts.

These people deserved to be carefully selected elites, and they all touched a few meters to the side of those sentry posts, but those sentry posts were still not found.

Afterwards, they violently rushed to the four guard posts, slashing with knives.

No other movement was heard, and the head of Hundred Households was in a very good mood, which meant that there was indeed no secret whistle.

"Report to the army behind that the outpost has been cleared and the attack can be launched."

After finishing speaking, he promised to the stranger who made the merits that he would have a great reward after the war.

But at this time, they did not notice that one of the Wu Jun sentry who was slashed by a random knife was only seriously injured and did not die immediately.

Perhaps the Ming army was too careless, thinking that it would be safe to chop more than a dozen knives.

Unexpectedly, this soldier had better luck and was not cut to the point.

At this moment, he was shocked when he heard that the enemy was about to attack.

He knew that he had suffered a lot of knives, and he would definitely not be able to survive. Before the change, he might only wait silently for death, and the life and death of the army had nothing to do with him.

But now, he remembered Wu Changqing's care and love for them, the low-level soldiers, and he thought of doing his loyalty to Wu Changqing.

Not only did Wu Changqing personally distribute him military pay, but he also promised that he would allocate fields to the soldiers for free when the war was over. All these made him very touched.

So, he struggled to take out the fire fold and lit the fireworks around him.

This is a firework specially used as a signal flare. The sound is loud and lasts a long time.

"Beep—pop."

A strange sound frightened the head of the Ming Army's Hundred Households. Then, the sound continued, and bright fireworks began to bloom in the sky.

The head of a hundred households did not have the idea of ​​‘beautiful’ like those scholar girls.

He knew it was bad. Although he didn't know what the fireworks were, the loud noise was enough to alarm Wu Jun's camp a hundred meters away.

What's more terrible is that he has already sent someone to notify the troops behind that the guard post has been cleared. At this time, he will notify it again, I am afraid it is too late.

At Wu Jun camp, not all the soldiers have rested, and there are teams in charge of patrolling the camp.

When they saw the fireworks in the distance, they immediately knew that there was an enemy attack at night, and immediately dispersed to wake up the other soldiers.

They have been trained on weekdays, so they are not particularly flustered when encountering this kind of thing.

Soon, a large number of soldiers and generals were awakened, a large number of torches in the camp were lit, and the grassroots generals began to gather their subordinates and waited for the orders of the superiors.

Wang Dayong and several senior generals also came to the army at this time, appeared in front of the soldiers, and reassure them in time.

As long as the Lord will be there, the soldiers will feel more at ease.

The biggest reason why Wang Dayong and the others moved so quickly was that they did not wear armor.

Unlike the generals of other cold weapons troops who like to wear heavy armor, Wu Jun's senior generals generally don't like to wear armor, because they have almost no chance to fight the enemy.

Those cumbersome armors are actually very troublesome to wear, and they can't be completed by one person, and they must be worn with the assistance of personal soldiers. This process takes at least ten minutes.

As for Wang Dayong and the others, they got up and put on a coat and left the camp and took over the command.

This habit played a miraculous effect when dealing with emergencies, and Wu Jun quickly completed the array.

The night attack, the enemy was caught off guard.

But now Wu Jun is ready to go, forming a formation at the front of the camp.

When the Ming army arrived, all of them were dumbfounded.

Some people even thought they were in an ambush by Wu Jun.

"shooting."

Wang Dayong ordered.

Long-range assault soldiers have a greater advantage in this dark night. They don't have to run around in the dark, but only need to shoot in the direction of the enemy.

As the gunfire rang, various screams followed.

Obviously, someone in the Ming army was shot. With a distance of less than 100 meters between the two sides, many people can be shot without aiming and relying on luck.

At this time, Xu Wenwei had sweat on his forehead, and he no longer knew what to do.

Continue to implement the night raid plan, the success rate is not high, or it will undoubtedly be defeated.

But just fleeing in such a desperate way would have a huge blow to morale. More importantly, in the dark, once there is a panic, the team will be chaotic, and the chaos will be over.

As long as Wu Jun catches up, they may not be able to reach the soldiers who can escape to the city.

Retreating is always harder than attacking.

This situation is very difficult for any general to deal with.

Xu Wenwei is not a famous general, nor does he have any extraordinary talents. He hesitated for a moment at this time, until his subordinates urged him to give up the night attack and return on the same route.

Count as much as you can escape, it's better than continuing to attack and destroy the entire army.

Not surprisingly, Xu Wenwei's retreat order caused panic in the Ming army.

This order is equivalent to telling all the soldiers that the night attack failed.

And the end of failure, does that still need to be said, it must be a heavy loss.

This kind of panic made the soldiers hate themselves for fleeing in front. Under the scramble, the army formation immediately became chaotic.

This kind of chaos is easier to adjust and recover during the day, but at night, this kind of chaos will only get more and more chaotic.

Even the little military officers at the bottom knew that this situation could not be saved, and they were too lazy to give orders, vying to escape one by one.
