Chapter 119: Attack on the Camp

Li Xia frowned and said, "I don't understand. Anyway, it's all ambush. What does it have to do with who leads the army?"

Gu Du replied: "If someone else leads the army, we will panic as soon as we fight him. Then we will take advantage of it, but Ju Fazheng will not. He must have received the order to use these 30,000 people to fight the ambush. Even if all these 30,000 people are destroyed, as long as we can consume the maximum number of our soldiers."

"The Spirit Emperor came from thousands of miles away just to exchange his life for his life. I wanted to fight his former army to boost morale, but his former army had 30,000 people, which could no longer be considered a former army. He just lured me to ambush and consumed field battles."

"Oh!" Li Xia blinked and then smiled sweetly.

Dongfang Xia Lan rolled her eyes and snorted.

Gu Du said: "The princess should go to protect the emperor, why don't she leave?"

Dongfang Xia Lan said angrily: "Do you care about me?"

Gu Du said, "I am ordered to command the army. If the princess does not obey the orders of me, please leave the military camp and find your third brother."

After Gu Du said that, he stopped looking at her and said to the messenger: "Promote the tent."

Li Xia did not coax Dongfang Xialan this time and followed Gu Du away.

Dongfang Xialan frowned slightly, Mo Xuan touched her with his nose, Dongfang Xialan turned around and asked softly with a grievance, "Are he particularly tired of me?"

Mo Xuan bent down, Dongfang Xia Lan raised her hand and wiped her tears, rode on the tiger's back, and said, "Let's go, go to the imperial city."

Ma Chongren came back on order, entered the tent and said with a fist, "Master, the last one is back."

Gu Du said, "Sit down."

Ma Chongren sat down and asked, "Master General, why did General Mo come back? Although General Mo only brought five thousand infantry troops, the enemy was tired from afar. If he was not stable in the attack, he could also severely damage the enemy."

Gu Du replied: "Although the enemy is coming from afar, it is not necessarily exhausted. Besides, the enemy has 30,000 people. If you are guarding the camp, you can at least exchange one for five. If you fight in the field, it would be great if you can exchange one for two. If you have few people, you can't afford to die. If you can save, you have to save."

Ma Chongren nodded, and then said hatefully: "The enemy's former army commander is Ju Fazheng, and the old general Cao died at his hands!"

Gu Du said: "Don't be angry. The two armies are facing each other. The most important thing is to be impatient. Go and rest for a while. If we don't ambush the enemy, the enemy will definitely attack the camp at night."

Ma Chongren was stunned and asked, "Attack the camp while the night?"

Gu Du nodded and said, "We have deep grooves and high bases. If we attack the camp during the day, their casualties will be extremely heavy. If I were the leader, I would attack the camp at night, and I would also use bows and arrows to help, regardless of damage."

At dusk, the sentry provoked the reward and Ju Fazheng led his army out of the camp and came to the west camp.

Gu Du ordered the defense from three sides. One hour later, the soldiers on the Arrow Tower reported: "Master General! The enemy has reached three miles away, stopped and did not raise a fire!"

Gu Du said loudly: "Prepare to meet the enemy! Take the sword and shield, and walk forward! Archers go on the snail!" (Phaeal: a low wooden wall built on the camp wall.)

A quarter of an hour later, Ju Fazheng ordered the march to advance. He knew that in the battle of Lancheng, he actually lost the battle, but the emperor could not blame him, because on the surface, he defeated the enemy and seized Lancheng. This was a good news for the people.

So this time the Spirit Emperor asked him to lead the front army to attack the camp. He knew that he had to wear a horse and wrap his body to repay his kindness, otherwise the whole family would have no way to survive.

However, Ju Fazheng strangely, everyone believed that Gu Du's ambush was fighting, but he did not, which made Ju Fazheng extremely uneasy.

Gu Du is a genius, and after Chu Qin for more than four years, he has learned all the skills of Chu Qin. Moreover, according to Chu Qin, Gu Du and Li Xia have already seen the path of the Great Soul-Reigning Master. Such a genius will definitely have other tricks when he is unstable to defeat the enemy.

But it doesn't matter. Anyway, Ju Fazheng did not plan to go back alive when he attacked the camp. He died in front of the enemy camp in battle, which was his only destination.

The Arrow Tower reported: "The enemy has reached one mile!"

Gu Du said loudly: "Splash water!"

The military workers picked up the bucket and poured water on the camp gate, camp railing, and tents within the distance.

Opposite, Ju Fazheng shouted loudly: "Rise the fire!"

The camp lit the torch, illuminating the night instantly. Gu Du looked up at the other side and saw that it seemed like a sea of ​​fire.

Ju Fazheng once again shouted: "Attack the camp!"

"Kill..." The moment the camp rushed out, a thousand soul troops roared towards the camp, and Li Xia and others immediately released the soul troops to fight with him.

The soldiers on the stoop were collided by the enemy soul army, and most of them twitched all over. The captain of the camp shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"

Arrows shot across the sky, and countless soldiers fell from the scepter. Even holding shields and rows of shields on the upper and lower sides were shot by the stray arrows, either injured or killed.

Gu Du stood on a separate tower and watched. The enemy was also rushing in front of him, resisting the arrows. The two rows of people following behind him had only swords and no shields, but each of them seemed to be holding something in their arms.

Gu Du knew that the enemy's arms must be turbulent tanks, and the best way to attack the camp was fire attack, so Gu Du ordered the laborers to pour water on the camp gate and the camp railing in advance, and selected 500 strong shooters in advance to wait for the enemy to set off rockets in the back formation.

The trenches blocked the enemy's large-scale charge and all gathered in front of the camp gate, but the turbulent oil tanks were thrown into all directions.

Gu Du saw the enemy's rear formation lit up again, with the faint and neatly arranged fire, and ordered: "The strong shooter is ready... let go!"

Before the enemy set off the rockets, five hundred arrows shot into the night sky. While the rockets were shot out, countless enemy archers fell to the ground.

Corpants quickly piled up in front of the camp gate, and the enemy pushed their bodies into the trench and gradually spread to the camp railings on both sides.

The shouts of killing and screams mixed together. Even the camp gate and battalion that had been poured in water in advance also caught fire after several rounds of rockets.

The laborers rushed up with buckets to put out the fire, and countless people fell to the ground by arrows.

Li Xia and four spirit masters commanded the soul army to fight with the enemy. Gu Du also gave his soul army to Li Xia because he had to focus on the overall situation and could not command the soul army to fight.

The enemy rushed up one after another, and the rockets shot over one after another. Gu Du waited patiently because Ju Fazheng had not yet rushed to the camp, and because the camp had not yet filled the trenches, the entire army could not charge.

Dongfang Xialan and Zedi stood on the tower together, looking at the firelight in the distance, feeling restless. At the critical moment of life and death, he could not stay with Gu Du or see the situation of the battle with his own eyes. This was a great torment.

Emperor Ze also seemed uneasy. This was a battle that was related to life and death. The two armies were facing each other. Even if they were defending, they could not be harmed. After this battle, how much military force could Zeguo have left?

If there is not much left, will the Ling Kingdom invade again? After all, there are still defenders in the three passes of Ling Kingdom, and even if half of them are divided, it is enough to drive Ze Kingdom back to the ice field.
