please make me king

Chapter 1330 Night Attack
"Boom, boom, boom!" The sound of huge artillery resounded through the dark night, making the quiet night equally noisy.

From time to time, three or five shells hit the wall of the camp or the tents of the camp, and then there was a dull impact and the screams of the Jin soldiers.

It turned out that after the failure of Ashan's "persuasion" in the morning, the "Shun Thieves" mobilized forty "large red barbarian cannons" and bombarded them all day long, leaving Houjin's defense facilities riddled with holes.

Originally, Abatai wanted to take advantage of the cover of night and let the soldiers take the opportunity to repair the wall, but now he can't go.

He couldn't help standing at the entrance of the tent, looking at the flickering fire outside the camp with a cloudy expression, while thinking about what Ah Shan said during the day.

"Hey, my Lord Baylor, why are you still standing at the door of this tent? Come in, come in!" Just at this moment, Yan Yechen's voice sounded in real time after all the red flags were in place.

"Ah? I just checked the movement of 'Shun Thief'." Abate explained while letting Wanyan Yechen in.

It turns out that in order to avoid being targeted by the artillery of the "shun thief", fireworks have already been banned in the Houjin camp.

Even if you have to use it as a last resort, it should be tightly wrapped with three layers inside and outside, so as not to be discovered by "shun thieves".

Just now, Abate opened the curtain to investigate outside, which is actually a relatively dangerous thing.

Before that, Abatai's large tent of the Chinese army was destroyed by the "shun thieves" because of Ah Shan's "betrayal".

Fortunately, Abatai and Wanyan Yechen had also expected it, so they escaped a catastrophe.

If this time, because of the willingness of the light, he was killed by a shell from the "Shun thief", it would be a pity.

After the two sides entered the camp, the upper and lower ranks were determined, and then Abate asked, "How is it outside?"

"What else can I do? I'm going to be beaten passively!" Wanyan Yechen said with a wry smile, "Just now the 'Shun thief' charged twice tentatively, but we beat him back, so he's fine for the time being."

"Ye Chen, that's what I think." Abatai hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"The two of us are grasshoppers on the same rope, so I will speak openly if I have something to say."

"Master Baylor, please tell me." Wanyan Yechen replied calmly.

"We...we can't go on like this anymore, we have to fight back, we have to fight out!" Seeing this, Abate frowned, retracted half of the "open and bright" words, and replaced them with another set of rhetoric.

"Master Baylor, let's." Wanyan Yechen didn't understand what Abatai was thinking, and seeing him take back what he shouldn't have said, he felt relieved.

Even though Wanyan Yechen is the commander of Xianghong Banner, he actually belongs to Xianghuang Banner, one of the upper three banners.

His master is Hong Tai, the current emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and he is a chess piece used by Hong Tai to weaken the rights of the banner holders inlaid with red flags.

As a pawn, he certainly understands his status.

No matter what Abate thinks, he must not participate in the struggle between these masters.

Otherwise, no matter which one wins, his real master "Hong Tai" will not spare him.

And as the representative of the Wanyan family in the "Great Qing Dynasty", obviously as long as he doesn't commit suicide, under normal circumstances nothing will happen.

A "Raoyu Baylor" Abate is not enough for him to take risks.

Although Abatai was annoyed by his slippery hands, there was nothing he could do.

He finally shook his head and said with a smile: "Although my nephew Azig, king of Yingwu County, left, the 'shun thief' turned a blind eye and still besieged us here."

"Nowadays, we can't count on anyone, we can only rely on ourselves."

Although what Abatai said was subtle, there was no need to worry about whether Wanyan Yechen understood or not.

To put it bluntly, it means that Azig ran away with an army of [-], and we were tailed by the tail-docked gecko who is still here. Don't expect anyone to rescue us, we can only escape by ourselves.

In fact, Wanyan Yechen still had doubts about Ah Shan's remarks.

But now that the rebel army is not moving at all, Azig's plan of "leading the army into the belly of the 'shun thief', attacking them must be rescued, leading the army south, and breaking the siege by itself" has completely come to naught. Wanyan Yechen had to think more layer.

Perhaps at the beginning, Na Azig had no intention of leaving them behind and running away.

However, if the plan to "lure the thief" fails, there is no guarantee that he will not "dock his tail" to survive.

"Then what does Lord Belle plan to do?" Wanyan Yechen frowned and asked involuntarily.

"I plan to attack the camp tonight and destroy the 'Shun Bandit' artillery!" Abate said bluntly.

"I'm afraid this is a narrow escape, let Ye Chen lead the troops!" Wanyan Ye Chen couldn't help recommending himself after hearing Abatai's words.

What a joke, a slave is a slave, and a master is a master.

If Abatai died in this battle, and Wanyan Yechen returned alive, the other princes and Lord Baylor would definitely take the opportunity to attack "His Majesty"'s eight ministers and sixteen ministers.

The so-called "eight ministers", that is, Hong Tai set up a minister in charge of government affairs under each banner owner, called Gushan Ezhen, that is, they all have the same post.

As for the "Sixteen Ministers", Hong Tai set up two ministers for each banner to set up directors and litigate army under the capital, and they were called "Sixteen Ministers".

Although these [-] ministers are still subordinate to the banner masters, their positions have nothing to do with the masters. It is Hong Tai's special strategy to divide the power of the banner masters, so the banner masters are quite dissatisfied.

They were worrying that they would have no excuse to attack Mrs. Hong, if Wanyan Yechen really handed them a knife, maybe even Mrs. Hong would want to chop him up by then.

"That's it. That's fine, but please be very careful!" Although Abatai was brave, he also knew that this attack was close to death, so he generously gave this opportunity to Wanyan Yechen.

The two agreed that no matter how much the rebels yelled at and beat them, they could just hide in the camp.

We only waited for the first watch, the second watch, and the third watch. It was not until the fourth watch that we heard the bombardment of the rebel artillery, which began to become intermittent.

Abatai couldn't hold back for a long time, and couldn't help urging: "It can be hit!"

"No, today is the first night of the battle between the two sides. The 'Shun Bandit' has already set up a net, but wait for me to leave the camp." Wanyan Yechen shook his head and said.

"Now, we should do the opposite, but it won't be too late to attack when the 'thief' ambush soldiers are exhausted."

Abatai couldn't resist him, so he could only suppress his impatience and continue to wait.

It wasn't until the fifth watch, when the cannons of the rebel army were exhausted, that Abatai was dizzy and yawned, Wanyan Yechen nodded and said: "It can be hit!"

After that, it took about an hour or so to bury the pot for cooking, put on armor and hold weapons, before Wanyan Yechen finished putting on his clothes and led two thousand elites to touch the camp.

Most of the elite Houjin were born as hunters in the mountains, and they are quite good at robbing sentries and touching camps.

Not long after, he robbed and killed seven or eight people from the rebel sentry, and touched an artillery position of the rebel army.

Wanyan Yechen took a look under the moonlight, and saw that although the rebels' positions were dark and not very clear, they could barely see a ditch enclosing several giant cannons in front of them.

Beside the giant cannon, there were several piles of bonfires and tents. There were more than a dozen sentries sitting beside the bonfire, and an unknown number of artillerymen were sleeping in the tents.

"Sure enough, it's a good method, easy to arrange!" The Jin army was also proficient in artillery, so Wanyan Yechen also saw the power of the artillery position at a glance.

"Listen to my orders for a while, the head of the cow will clamor loudly, but feigns to attack from the left; the second cow will lie in ambush on the right, but when the 'shun thieves' gather to the left, you will rush over. The others listen to my orders and are ready at any time Attack!" Wanyan Yechen couldn't help but hastily assigned tasks.

After receiving the military order, the left and right went separately.

Not long after, only a whistle was heard, and then the sound of fighting rang out from the left.

Wanyan Yechen suppressed his nervousness and excitement, and waited for a while, and sure enough, there was another fighting sound on the right side.

"It's done!" Wanyan Yechen couldn't help but smiled and said, "And prepare to go to the next position."

There are more than a dozen artillery positions like the Rebel Army, and each has only three to five hundred soldiers. He can basically solve it by sending two full-staffed Niu Lu.

The top priority is to destroy as many of the opponent's artillery as possible before the "Shun thief" reacts.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao.

Just when Wanyan Yechen thought of the word artillery, a cannon resounded through the silent night sky, making people's ears buzz.

"what happened?"

"It's not good, 'Shun Thief' has been prepared for a long time, we fell for it!"

"Did it fall into the trap?" Following the sound of seven or eight consecutive cannon shots, a rush of horseshoes sounded from behind.

It turned out that after Na Ashan described the temperaments of Abate and Wanyan Yechen to Zhang Shun in detail, he concluded that Wanyan Yechen would attack tonight.

Therefore, Zhang Shunzao ordered the soldiers to load their guns and cannons with ammunition, and mobilized Yang Chengzu and Zhang Dashou to support them at any time.

Although Wanyan Yechen came later this time, it did not affect the "catch" of his "big fish" by the rebel army at all.
