Night Attack
Chapter 21:Night Attack
In late October, the grassland chill grew stronger, under the whistling of the north wind, the grass that was originally yellow completely lost its vitality, and there was a large gap, some of the dead grass was even rolled into the air by the wind, fluttering and not knowing where it would fall.
At this time, the situation of the Rahab Department is also similar to the unreliable decay, and it is completely unknown where to go.After being far from the familiar environment, the spirit of the whole horse has been far less than before, coupled with too many old and weak women and children and many families, so that their speed has become extremely slow.
Lu Wei, who was in it, did not feel that he was thinking about things too simplistic until a few days after leaving.I thought that in the face of such a situation, there will be a lot of people thinking out of the team, another way to make a living, when they mixed in these people to get away should not be too difficult.
But the truth is not at all like that, and these days, almost no one leaves the Ministry.This is not because of how united the people of the Rahab department are, it is really forced by the situation in the grasslands.Because of the harsh environment, so that the herdsmen can only survive here by being united and supporting each other, and when they come to a strange place, this is even more important, if they leave the tribe in such situations, the next life is difficult to be guaranteed, almost in the self-seeking death.So even knowing that the situation is difficult and dangerous, the people of the Rahab Ministry are still firmly united.
And in this way, Lu Shu wants to take advantage of the chaos to get out of the plan completely can not start.Another reason that he dared not try to escape was that in the first two days, he found that someone was secretly watching himself, and I was afraid that as soon as he had plans to leave, they would block it, and even soon it would alarm everyone.In addition, Lu Wei is also afraid that when he leaves this team, he will be attacked by the attackers, and his own safety will be difficult to be guaranteed.
Yes, although it was only ten days, the Rahab Ministry had been attacked from other tribes, not once, but four times.And this attack was fiercer than once, and many ethnic groups have died for it.
Leaving their homes, all the way to migrate, they have become a target of the activity, in the absence of adequate defense measures, and not too familiar with the surrounding environment, they can only harden a field attack, for which is naturally to pay a heavy price.
The security of a whole tribe obviously bound the hands and feet of other young and strong men, so that they can only passively defend, which makes the combat effectiveness of the Mongolian cavalry who defend the good attack greatly, even if it is a victory, it is difficult to pursue the enemy, because they have to protect the people around them.
Although it is said that the men, women and children can be recruited as soldiers, but really on the battlefield, these people are still only a drag of young men, especially when they face the same fierce grassland cavalry, they have a greater negative impact.
If they were in the original station, they could still play a role by the advantages of the terrain or the previous defense preparations, but now they have no effect at all.Many times, they are only the target of being slaughtered, and many people have given their lives in these circumstances.
Such an unbearable encounter, and some desperate thoughts about the future, so that the atmosphere up and down the Rahab department is somewhat depressed, even if now temporarily stopped, not many people are ready to eat, just quickly set up a simple tent, and then prepare to sleep after eating some dry food.
In such a team, Lu Wei is also very heavy in his heart.There is even a hint of regret, because he knows very well that these people are actually killed because of their own calculations.
Even if it has been considered before, it is also known that this is an inevitable result, but he will still feel guilty when he sees many innocent herdsmen dying around him.After all, he was not a cold-blooded soldier or a killer, but just an ordinary man.
But the bow did not turn back the arrow, things to this point, Lu Wei can only be in accordance with their own established plan to implement, we must find out the opportunity to leave as soon as possible, otherwise I do not know when they can be killed by the Mongolian cavalry constantly killed.
Thinking about these, Lu Wei, who was in the dark tent, couldn't help but turn up, and put on the most ordinary sheepskin robe and then knelt on the front curtain and looked out.In the eyes of the night, except for the night outside, only a few of the clans who patrolled the night were young and strong - in these cases, they dare not take the slightest light.
"In this case, it is difficult for me to leave, let alone I must ride away."Lu Wei thought, and turned his eyes back to the backpack around, he wanted to take the running things into the bag, but on the grassland, if there is no horse to walk, the back of such a bag can not go too far.
“Do I really have to go back with them?”Not to say that this is not my wish, and as things stand, they do not seem to have the command to reach their destination.”Lu Wei quickly turned his thoughts in his heart, and he could see that the cavalry who attacked the Rahab Department was not a bandit on the grassland, but the elite of the ministries, and I was afraid that they should have been killed by the first order.
And the enemies before are only pioneers or temptations, and perhaps when the real terrible and powerful enemies will be killed.At that time, with the strength and morale of the current Rahab Department, it may be a complete collapse in a battle.When you are in it, you are in danger.
“I have to leave as soon as possible, before it all comes.”Even if they are staring at it, they have to fight hard.”After considering the current situation, Lu Wei quickly made a decision, but when to go, but still need to consider.
At this moment, Lu Wei, who had just wanted to lie down again, suddenly moved his ears, and then alerted his head to the ground and listened carefully.A few months of grassland life, so that he also learned some of the means of survival, this place to listen to the art is one of them.
Only listened, Lu Wei's look quickly condensed, which is a large number of people and horses are approaching their side of the movement, although the other side deliberately slowed down, but the tremor on the ground still clearly told him to feel.
"Not good, after a few days of inaction, they actually used the night attack!"Lu Wei a chorus of rummaged up from the ground, and from the movement he heard, this time the other side was wrapped up here on both sides of the left and right, which is bound to bring extremely terrible threats and casualties to the rattle part that has been rested!
There is no too much thought, and Lu Shu subconsciously will give out the account and give a loud warning.Although this does not seem to be much of a role at present, it is still better than nothing.But just as his hand touched the curtain, a thought came to mind again: “This is not my great opportunity to leave them.”When they encounter attacks in the night, they must be in a mess, and then they are among the people who are scattered, and it should be very hidden!"
Thinking of this, Lu Yi immediately shrunk his hand back and quickly carried the backpack to himself, which in addition to the camera and waiting for his own crossing, there are some food accumulated in the weekdays, which is the guarantee he used to return to the Central Plains!
Then, Lu Yi quietly opened the curtain, gently touched the outside, came to his own mount, and prepared to leave once the chaos began.
Just as he was ready for everything, a tent in the center of the hezha also rushed out, and then shouted: "There is an enemy!"He also noticed the problem and gave a warning at the first time.
The other people in the account had fallen asleep because of their toil, and when they heard this, they all woke up from their dreams, and many people were even more dazed, and they did not know what was going on.Of course, there are some high vigilance, and flexible-minded people have flown away while putting on clothes, while taking weapons to the outside of the account.
Only in the blink of an eye, the whole piece was very quiet, the Rahab headquarters was chaotic, people shouted horse hiss, several torches have been erected, more people rushed out of the tent blankly, which has a cadre among the leaders.
"Shut up..." the long, harsh trumpet suddenly sounded from the darkness, making the people who had doubts about it a stir, which was convinced that the big thing was not good.
And just at the moment of the sound of the trumpet, the sound of the north wind that was already scratching was changed, and it seemed that there was something more pointed howling to cover the wind.
“It’s a bow!”Soon, someone understood and shouted.
And just in the moment of this sound, countless arrows on the left and right fell like rain, and instantly shot down the trumpet-free man who was wandering around like a headless fly, and the screams were louder, and people began to scramble around, and the entire station of the Rahab Department was completely chaotic.
And at the moment of the fall of the arrow rain, there was a drum-like dynamic on both sides, which was the sound of the horseshoes hitting the ground when they rushed.With the sound of horseshoes, there was a roar of roar, and since it had been done, there was no need to hide itself.
Because before touching the distance between the two sides had only one arrow, the raider killed the speed of the rapid, only in a blink of an eye, they had broken through the fences used to block the beasts, and the horse killed the people who had already confused the heart, and the knife in their hands had broken the past without hesitation.
All this came too fast, even the warriors in the department of Heza, who also felt that they were caught off guard, and only had time to cut the reins to meet the enemy, and others were only ready to die.
The attackers who killed the same division of labor, in addition to the continuous killing, there are people who have just set the torch in the surrounding tent, which will be quickly ignited.
Under the bulge of the north wind, the fire spread rapidly and reddened the whole camp.
Under the fire, a shocking massacre officially began...
