[Chapter 1009 Night Attack]

“Let all the machine gunners prepare, they should launch a night attack at night.” Standing on a raised mound, Guan Tong observed with a telescope for a while.

Seeing that the Piaoman army did not make any further moves, he made a judgment.

When Piaoman attacked Yunzhou last time, he had already suffered a loss at the hands of the Suzaku army, and he knew how powerful the Suzaku army was.

Attacking during the day, not only would they not be able to achieve their plan to push the Suzaku Army into the Great Swamp, but they would also suffer heavy losses.

And use the night to weaken the accuracy of the Suzaku army’s guns and artillery, and only then can the attack be successful.

This point, he believed that the Pyu barbarians would definitely be able to figure it out.

“Yes, general.” There were three generals standing in front of Guan Tong.

Their names were Yan Heng, Nie Yun, and Xue Yuan, and they commanded the first, second, and third armies of the Suzaku Army.

After giving a military salute, they turned around and left to deploy troops against the Humberman army.

During the confrontation between the armies of the two sides, the sun gradually set on the western mountain.

The mountains turn from blue to red, and are finally engulfed in darkness.

At this moment, the location where the Phuman army was stationed lit up, and it turned out that it was the Phuman soldiers who lit the torches.

Under the light of the torches, the Hussar army moved, and the elephant soldiers composed of 500 elephants were arranged in the front row.

The other hussars followed behind the elephant soldiers, ready to charge the Dasong army.

“Hahaha, the Dasong people will definitely be scared to death, and our elephant soldiers will trample them into a pulp.” Said the hustler general beside Yong Ya.

Yong Ya looked towards the place where Da Song’s army was stationed, and there was also a bonfire lit, which could be seen faintly.

Hearing this, he showed a cruel smile.

When he led the troops in Yunzhou to fight the Dasong army, he realized that his own guns and artillery were quite different from the Dasong army.

Except for rifled guns that can play some role, flintlock guns and matchlock guns are equivalent to nothing.

Under such circumstances, it is natural to sneak attack at night.

Moreover, he also made all the soldiers involved in the sneak attack carry swords.

The darkness is not conducive to the shooting of the Dasong army’s guns and artillery, and naturally it is not conducive to the shooting of their own guns and artillery.

Therefore, it is better to fight directly and use numbers to annihilate this big song army.

Thinking of this, he became more and more complacent, as if he saw that victory was just around the corner.

After the elephant soldiers lined up, Yong Ya gave the order to attack.

The hustlers steered the elephant into the darkness.

Although the camp was littered with torches, the hustlers responsible for the sneak attack were operating in the dark.

They spread out on the five-mile-long front, with one elephant soldier every five meters, and moved forward.

Before the Humans attacked, the Suzaku Army sent out scouts and set up bells 200 meters in front of the camp.

The bell is small and convenient, and it is a sharp weapon against night attacks. Naturally, scouts carry it with them.

After nightfall, the Suzaku Army placed key forces on the south side, and only a small number of troops were placed on the east, west and north sides, and no machine guns were arranged.

Because although the Great Swamp is a Jedi, it has also become a wall for them at this moment.

Except that the tens of thousands of hussars who lured them might take the opportunity to kill them after the battle started, there would be no more troops.

The east and west sides belong to the edge of the Everglades.

This is why Guantong chose to stay here.

It is to use the edge of the swamp to build a favorable location.

In this way, they only need to focus on defending against the hussar army in the north.

At this moment, 180 machine guns are distributed on the front line.

Soldiers were placed between machine guns.

The soldiers untied the grenades from their waists and placed them in front of them so that they could be used at any time during the battle.

The artillerymen were also ready to bomb the attacking Humbug army after the flares were fired.

For a moment, the battlefield was eerily quiet, save for the sound of insects.

Guantong did not sleep.

Instead, he walked back and forth in the camp, and he was also a little nervous.

I’m afraid that Piaoman has seen through his intention and didn’t fall into his trap.

In this way, he will have to spend a lot of time to wipe out the Hussar army.

The generals stared at Guan Tong, their eyes following his figure.

About half an hour later, there was a sudden loud sound of bells.

When Guan Tong heard the sound, he immediately shouted, ”

Flare!”

Under the light, the husky elephant soldiers and infantry were exposed in front of the Suzaku army.

“I’ve been fooled!” Zhou Yi cheered up and clenched his fists tightly.

He used the bell to prevent sneak attacks early on against the Beidi people.

Now that it succeeded again, it was obvious that Piaoman had no relevant experience, so he fell into the trick.

As the first flare was launched, more and more flares were launched along the front line, and the width of the attack formation of the entire Humbug army was also exposed.

“Fight!”

At this moment, Guan Tong shouted and issued an order.

“Da da da…” At

almost the same time, the machine gun spewed out flames.

One hundred and eight machine guns poured out a large number of bullets in an instant.

The soldiers also shot at the hussars in various postures.

The artillerymen pulled the matchlock, and the shells flew out of the muzzle one by one, and fell into the Humbug army.

In order to attack the Suzaku army, Yong Ya invested a lot of troops.

The open space between the Suzaku army camp and the Pumman camp was full of Pumman soldiers.

Facing machine gun fire and artillery bombardment, they had no way to hide.

When the flare was raised to control, the hussar army was startled by the sudden bright light.

The elephant sitting down by the elephant soldier was even a little uneasy. He took a few steps forward and then backed up a few steps.

When the Suzaku army’s machine guns, rifles and artillery fired at the same time.

The elephant with the largest target was immediately injured.

And the sudden loud noise also frightened the elephants. They no longer listened to the command of the elephant soldiers, and ran around screaming.

This made the barbarian soldiers around the elephant soldiers unlucky, and they were immediately trampled to death by the elephants.

Soldiers who were not trampled to death by the elephant were also shot and fell in a pool of blood because they were not covered by the elephant.

“Da da da…”

“Bang bang bang…”

Due to the full preparation, the machine guns and soldiers fired wildly.

Under the heavy rain of bullets, the hustler soldiers fell one by one.

“Get on me!”

“Don’t back up, go!”

“…” The

Humbug soldiers in the front row were suddenly attacked and suffered heavy casualties. They were frightened by the sudden light, and some Humbug soldiers fled out of fear.

Seeing this, the Human generals immediately stopped the soldiers from fleeing.

For this night attack, their emperor Yong Ya made up his mind.

As long as they can scare the Dasong army with a fearless night attack and force them to flee south, they will win.

Therefore, even if they are discovered by the Dasong army, they will carry out the night attack to the end.

After all, they had come to a position 200 meters away from Da Song’s army.

Under the urging and coercion of the general, some hustler soldiers turned back and joined the charging team again, rushing towards the formation of the Vermilion Bird Army, howling.
