Chapter 404 Fight
"Who said we need to use all our strength? Our goal is to help drive away the Jin people, not to defeat them."
Song Chunlin wondered: "Is there any difference between the two?"
Gu Fengyue smiled and told him: "Of course there is a difference. To drive them away, we only need to stop them from attacking the tribe for a short period of time. To defeat them, we need to annihilate all the Jin soldiers and make them never dare to invade this land again."
Song Chunlin seemed to understand: "So, they haven't reached an agreement yet."
"Of course not. If it weren't for the urgent military situation here, there would probably be a quarrel."
Song Chunlin didn't understand the twists and turns in the court, but Gu Fengyue's meaning was very clear, which was just one word: drag!
At least we have to delay until Dajing reaches an agreement with those grassland barbarians, otherwise Quemeng Mountain will not be peaceful in a short time.
There would be a tough battle the next day, so Gu Fengyue asked his men to rest early, leaving only a dozen people to patrol and stand guard. The rest went into the tents early to rest, so as to be in the best possible shape to fight the enemy tomorrow.
Song Chunlin did not sleep. He was responsible for the vigilance tonight. His invisible mental power turned into a cage and directly covered the entire Jin army camp, ensuring that if anyone came out, Song Chunlin would know it first.
This is much more convenient than simply guarding our own side, and it solves the problem at its root.
After doing all this, Song Chunlin got into his sleeping bag and put on an eye mask. On the surface, he was sleeping, but in fact, he was working with his supernatural powers without stopping for a moment.
Gu Fengyue was worried about him keeping watch alone, so she would wake up every once in a while, feed Song Chunlin some spiritual spring water, and then fall asleep again. She repeated this until the second half of the night. Seeing that it was not long before dawn, Gu Fengyue finally let herself fall asleep.
The Gu family's army arrived an hour earlier than Gu Fengyue expected. After Gu Fengyue learned that the army was very close to them, he immediately went to notify the Turks in the tribe. When the Turks were ready, they heard the rumbling sound of horse hooves.
A Turkic warrior couldn't help but grab the clothes of the people around him, shouting in surprise: "It's reinforcements, the Han people didn't lie to us, they really sent reinforcements!"
Unlike the Turks who were ecstatic, the Jin people were so shocked that they couldn't recover for a long time.
"Are those reinforcements from the Turks over there on the hill?"
However, some sharp-eyed people recognized that the clothing looked very different from that of the Turks, and was more like that of the Han people.
"They seem to be from Dajing. How could they... how could they..."
"They are all wearing armor. This is definitely not an ordinary army. Damn it, the Dajing people actually sent the Gu family army over!"
"So what if they are Gu's army, as long as they are not Zhu's army."
The people around him couldn't help but spit at him: "You must be a fool. Dajing no longer has the Zhu family army. The two people from the Zhu family have been dead for many years."
"Stop arguing, they are coming for us, fight them quickly!"
Upon hearing this, the Jin soldiers immediately hurriedly took up their weapons and formed a battle line. They were indeed the most valiant army of the Jin people. Even without anyone in command, they could adjust themselves to the battle in the fastest time.
The army on Dajing's side soon joined up with Gu Fengyue and his men. After a brief handover, everyone rushed towards the Jin army camp with roars, without even having time to rest.
The Turks also followed suit and rushed forward. They had been surrounded by the Jin soldiers during this period, and they were shouted at and demonstrated at the gate of the tribe. Later, they almost slaughtered all the people in their tribe. This anger had been suppressed in their hearts. Now they had finally got the chance to fight back against the Jin people. If they didn't fight now, when would they fight?
Seeing the two groups of troops coming at them aggressively, the Jin soldiers did not dare to underestimate the enemy. They also sent out their strongest forces to fight. However, when the two groups of troops were still a long distance away from the Jin soldiers' camp, a feather arrow broke through the air and took the life of a cavalryman standing in the front row.
Another Jin soldier beside him was shocked by the death of his companion and broke out in a cold sweat. He looked at the distance between the two sides in disbelief. It was so far that they were not even within the archers' range, at least not within the range of their archers.
"Impossible, how can they have a bow with such a long range."
Song Chunlin sneered. What was impossible? The two thousand archers they brought this time were all Song Chunlin's soldiers. Each of them was equipped with an improved compound bow with a longer and more stable range. Before they got close to the Jin army camp, arrows fell like raindrops. Almost all of the Jin soldiers standing in the front row were shot off their horses. In the chaos, many people were even trampled to death by their horses.
Before the two sides fought, the Jin soldiers were already on the verge of defeat. People in the front row fell down, and those at the back didn't even dare to fight back, for fear that they would be the next to die.
When the cavalry led by Gu Fengyue rushed to the front, the formation that the Jin soldiers had originally arranged was immediately shattered, and those Jin soldiers who were left alone were quickly hacked to death. However, they had their backs against the military camp, and there was a steady stream of Jin soldiers to reinforce them from behind, and for a while they were able to barely fight to a draw.
