Night slowly fell on the desolate border land, and the stars twinkled, creating a peaceful atmosphere.

There was no night breeze in the air, only a bit of heat, which made people feel irritated involuntarily.

Midsummer is here, spring is passing and autumn is coming, year after year~

"Crunch~"

The south gate of Wuguan slowly opened silently, and groups of cavalry entered the city from the secluded gate without attracting anyone's attention.

They are all tall and upright first-class horses with thick and powerful hooves and smooth manes. All the soldiers on the horses have strong backs and bulging arms.

This group of people did not wear Liangdi's standard military uniforms. They only wore thin black clothes, bare hands, and a machete on horseback.

There was a long convoy beside the cavalry column, entering the city side by side with the cavalry.

The flatbed truck pulled by war horses was covered with pieces of cowhide tarpaulin and had bulging bags. It was unclear what was being transported inside.

But it can be seen from the size of the fleet that the number of these things should be very huge.

Calm and indifferent eyes scanned the darkness, and a faint murderous aura slowly emanated from the bodies of these strong men.

It seems that even the hot air has become a bit colder.

The Liang army must be deliberately hiding something. Almost all the defenders at the south gate have been transferred out, and the remaining guards have also been given strict orders not to reveal a single word about what happened tonight.

Xue Tian and Zhuge stood at the top of the city in confusion, looking pleased that the heavy cavalry that Beiliang relied on the most had finally arrived.

Beiliang Xuanwu Army~

Two sturdy figures strode over, clasped their fists and shouted:

"Xianwu Army Xiang Jian has met Xue Duhu!"

"Wang Lingfu of the Xuanwu Army has met Xue Duhu!"

"According to the order of the Protectorate, the Xuanwu Army's 5,000 soldiers, 3,000 auxiliary soldiers, and 13,000 horses have all arrived!"

"Very good, thank you for your hard work, two generals."

Xue Tian patted the two of them heavily on the shoulders and said in a deep voice: "Let's stop chatting and discuss things in the hall!"

"promise!"

…

There were a lot of people in the meeting hall, and candles kept dancing on both sides of the wall pillars.

The generals and lieutenants of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, Red Flame Army, Xuanwu Army and other armies were all present. The iron armor was clanking in the room, and the cold light shone brightly.

Song Zhilu had returned to Liangzhou in advance because he also coordinated the distribution of military supplies in various cities so that the army would have no worries during the campaign.

Xue Tian looked at everyone and said calmly:

"General Xiang and General Wang rushed here from the Liangshan camp without stopping, and it was a tiring journey.

We were supposed to give the brothers of the Xuanwu Army a clean slate, but this time the war was urgent, so we kept everything simple.

I'll make up for the Jie Feng wine after the battle is over. I, Xue Tian, ​​owe you two a drink."

"Hehe~"

Xiang Jian grinned honestly and waved his hands: "Duhu Xue, we are not here to drink. We are here to kill barbarians."

"Lao Xiang is right, our Xuanwu Army is exhausted." Wang Lingfu agreed from the side.

The Xuanwu Army has been stationed at the Liangshan camp all year round and has been dispatched only a handful of times. The two generals are not the kind of people who can live idle.

"That's what I've been waiting for."

Xue Tian, ​​who knew the tempers of the two men well, grinned, then looked at the generals and said:

"The civil strife in the grasslands has subsided, and the elites of the five Yan and Rong tribes have already set off and are rushing to the border of Beiliang one after another. At this time, we will not only face these three to four hundred thousand enemy troops.

Everyone, everyone must be prepared for the next battle, the Yan army’s attack will be even more fierce!”

Everyone was solemn. Everyone knew the situation at the border. If another 200,000 elite Yan troops arrived, it would be really dangerous~

Xue Tian pressed his palm lightly on the map:

"So I decided to defeat Mu Yun Duankang outside Wuguan before the reinforcements of the Yan army arrived!

Try to force the Yan army to retreat temporarily and rest and reorganize the city defense. This will make future city defense battles easier."

"Okay! Fight!"

Tiger Leopards coach Yan Hongyi was the first to stand up and said:

"I've wanted to beat them up for a long time! The little fight last time was meaningless, so I'll beat them hard this time!"

"Yes! We must have a fight with Yan Jun!"

As soon as Xue Tian said that he wanted to defeat the crown prince of Yan State and defeat the strongest Yan army, the spirits of all the generals were immediately lifted.

Zhuge Muddleheaded chuckled softly and said casually:

"According to the intelligence, there are hundreds of thousands of Yan troops outside the pass, as well as two main cavalry armies, the yellow-backed Silver Wolf Banner and the yellow-backed Silver Bear Banner. Are you generals not afraid at all?"

A cold light flashed in the eyes of Qi Guang, the leader of the Red Flame Army:

"Afraid? When did Liang Jun say the word fear?"

Xue Tian and Zhuge looked at each other with confusion and satisfaction. They were determined to fight and this battle would be fought.

Xue Tian stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly:

"The Yan army was camped outside the city and had many cavalry, so there were no fancy tactics in this battle.

We just want to break through the Yan Army's siege army head-on, and then destroy the entire Yan Army camp!

Which general is willing to take the lead?"

"boom!"

"I come!"

Yan Hongyi, Qi Guang, and Xiang Jian, the three cavalry commanders, took steps almost at the same time, full of fighting spirit.

Before Xue Tian and Zhuge could talk, Yan Hongyi stared:

"This time, I, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, must be the one taking the lead. Whoever robs me will have to take my fist!"

Qi Guang and Xiang Jian immediately suppressed the words that reached their throats and closed their mouths obediently.

How dare they take action against Yan Hongyi? Their qualifications are far behind.

"Ha ha ha."

General Yan, when the war begins, the minimum task of the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry is to defeat the Yan army's siege army, and then the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry will go straight to the Chinese army's camp!"

"Last General Yan Hongyi, take the order!"

"After the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry defeated the Yan Army, the Red Flame Army took advantage of the situation and left the city.

No matter how slow the Yan army's reaction was, a main cavalry force should have assembled and rushed to the battlefield by this time.

The strength of these two banners of the Yan Army should be between 20,000 and 30,000, so one Red Flame Army is not enough to deal with them.

The Xuanwu Army hid in the Red Flame Army formation and suddenly broke out, catching the Yan Army by surprise. The task of the two generals was to defeat the main force of the Yan Army head-on.

Once the Yan army is defeated, the main force of the remaining cavalry will definitely come out in full force and start a decisive battle with us.

At this point, we will have won half of the battle."

Zhuge stood up in confusion and continued:

"When the main force of the Yan army comes out, all their attention will be focused on the frontal battlefield, leaving the rear undefended.

The Tianlang Army and Shuofeng Camp, which are marching secretly, can take advantage of the situation and rush into the battlefield from behind, defeating the Yan Army camp in one fell swoop!"

Everyone's eyes lit up with murderous intent.

This strategy seems simple and nothing fancy, but the Liang army's troops are at an absolute disadvantage, and the actual battle would be extremely dangerous.

Xue Tian took a step forward and shouted loudly:

"Comrades, we have been ordered by the king to guard the border. This battle can only be won, not defeated!

please!"

Everyone clasped their fists together, bowed and shouted angrily:
Chapter completed!
