The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1475
"Let the arrows!" Halfway up the mountain, the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army Navy began to bend their bows and set up arrows, shooting arrows downward.

At the same time, the people beside the catapult also poured oil on the stones and lit them with torches, and the stones on the catapult roared and flew towards the camp.

There were a lot of igniters in the camp. Under the continuous throwing of burning stones by the catapult, a fire broke out in the camp soon.

"You bastard, how dare you come to ambush us, with only 500 people, you really don't know what to do!" Sitting on the horseback, Wang Xiwei said, "Rush up and kill them!"

"Kill~~~"

Wang Xiwei gave an order, and the 2000 people behind him began to kill towards the halfway up the mountain, while the officers and soldiers of the Tang Army on the halfway up the mountain were still bending their bows and setting arrows, shooting downwards, although the number of people was small, the arrows they shot were also difficult A rain of arrows formed, but under wave after wave of arrows, Wang Xiwei's men were still damaged a lot, but compared to the total of 5000 people, this damage was almost negligible.

"retreat!"

After the explosion in the camp below, taking advantage of Wang Xiwei's stunned efforts, the captain of the navy quickly gave the order to retreat. Their task is not to confront Wang Xiwei recklessly, as long as they hold them for a while, they can cause some damage to them. Damage, even if it is earned, the most important thing is to divert the tiger away from the mountain and create opportunities for Liu Renyuan's army.

Wang Xiwei left the camp with [-] soldiers and horses. After Liu Renyuan got the news, he led his people towards Wang Xiwei's camp, and arrived at Wang Xiwei's base camp earlier than Wang Xiwei arrived at the naval camp.

After arriving, without further ado, he ordered the soldiers to attack.

Because of the superior terrain, Wang Xiwei's camp did not put much effort into defense, and now that Wang Xiwei is not in the camp, half of the troops in the camp have been withdrawn, and the guards in the camp are not as attentive as before.

"Give me the fastest speed to take down this camp. The people inside will live or die before surrendering." Liu Renyuan ordered.

"Yes!" Shen Haoqing replied.

Afterwards, Shen Haoqing personally led the people and began to rush towards the camp. There were nearly 2 sailors and soldiers in the camp, and there were only 7000 guards in the camp.

When the people of the navy attacked from the back camp with the weakest defense, the guards of the front camp began to move towards this side, and after the people from the front camp came over, the soldiers of the navy had already entered the camp using various tools Among them, the back door of the camp was opened, and more comrades were let in.

Wearing heavy armor and holding sharp weapons, the sailors entered the camp, like wolves entering a herd of sheep, and fought with the guards in the camp.

Under the attack of nearly 7000 elite naval officers and men, the [-] guards retreated steadily, and finally couldn't withstand the offensive of the naval officers and soldiers, and chose to surrender.

So far, Liu Renyuan took over Wang Xiwei's camp as quickly as possible.

Afterwards, Liu Ren was willing to let Wang Xiwei's men leave the camp to report to Wang Xiwei, but he was only allowed to say that the camp was under attack, and he was not allowed to tell Wang Xiwei that the camp had been taken by naval officers and men. Otherwise, he would be in the camp. The family members will all be decapitated.

Liu Ren wanted to do this in order to protect the five hundred soldiers from being chased by Wang Xiwei's men, and let Wang Xiwei know that he was fooled, so he hurried back to the camp to support him.

When he comes back, he will find that he has been fooled again, because the camp is no longer his.

Wang Xiwei now has only [-] people left under his command, and in front of the [-] Great Tang Navy that has already occupied the camp, he can't do anything well, either surrender or die.

Liu Renyuan now has a clear understanding of the situation on the island, so he is determined not to be merciless, and to keep Wang Xiwei waiting for him to come back and cause trouble for the Tang army on the island.

Liu Renyuan stood on the wall of the camp, looking at the scouts leaving in the dust, the smile on his face could not be stopped.

Although everything was planned, Liu Renyuan couldn't help being proud of taking Wang Xiwei's camp so easily.

It's really too simple, a small trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain deceived the general out of the camp, this Wang Xiwei's brain is really not very smart.

However, even if Wang Xiwei stayed in the camp, it would be useless. The attack of the navy officers and soldiers was too sudden. The camp was so big that he had no time to dispatch troops. With the advantage, it is not a problem to win this camp.

"Where's Shen Haoqing?" Liu Renyuan turned to look at the soldiers beside him and asked.

"Go back to General, General Shen is now in the camp, dealing with those guards who surrendered."

Liu Renyuan nodded, it seems that Shen Haoqing can't spare any time now.

"Then you go, and pass on the order to let those who are idle now, and those who can spare time, all go up the city wall, and Wang Xiwei's people will have something to do soon." Liu Renyuan said.

"Yes." The soldier responded.

Letting people who can spare their hands go up the city wall is also to deter Wang Xiwei. After all, rather than directly destroying Wang Xiwei, Liu Renyuan still hopes to keep Wang Xiwei's troops. After all, the newly discovered gold mine cannot be dug without someone.

As for the people from the other three forces, we still don't know what the outcome will be for the other three forces, so we must preserve the island's resources as much as possible.

Including the people on this island can be considered a resource.

If Wang Xiwei saw so many well-equipped soldiers on the city wall, would he be desperate and just surrender, don't even struggle.

If Wang Xiwei's men hurried back to the camp, a quarter of an hour would be enough.

It's just that Liu Renyuan still overestimated Wang Xiwei's marching speed. Where can they find war horses on this island?There are not many pack horses, and they are all sitting under the general's buttocks.

So about half an hour later, Liu Renyuan saw the shadow of Wang Xiwei's soldiers and horses, still standing on the city wall.

In the camp, Shen Haoqing also finished dealing with the prisoners of war, went up to the city wall with a long knife in his hand, and stood with Liu Renyuan.

"General, the city wall is not safe, you should go down first, and leave this place to the last general. If you have any orders, you can let the messengers come up to deliver the message." Shen Haoqing said.

Liu Ren is willing to be the leader of an army. Once there is a fight, it is most unsuitable to charge forward. Although sometimes this method can improve morale, but the leader of an army is the brains of the army, and there is no room for loss. , there is no one in charge in the army, sooner or later there will be chaos, that's why Shen Haoqing persuaded Liu Renyuan not to stay on the city wall.
