Even looking at the sky snake, there are clouds like snakes, indicating heavy fog.
The heavy fog that arrived as expected became the best cover for the Pingjing army to cross the river. Now the visibility of ordinary soldiers was only about a foot.
Such thick fog greatly increased the difficulty for Pingjing's army to cross the river, but it also greatly increased the difficulty for Zhao Wang's army to conduct reconnaissance.
Zhao Wang Zhu Kai also felt the difficulty of the matter at this moment.
He originally wanted to take advantage of Zhou's vanguard force to cross the river and attack halfway across the river. It would be best if he could trap the general Zhao Tianlin on the north bank of the Baigou River.
However, the heavy fog this morning was unexpectedly thick, which had an impact on the Southern Army and even more on King Zhao's Army.
The scouts could not clearly see the situation of Zhou's army crossing the river, which directly caused King Zhao to be unable to accurately execute the half-crossing and attack strategy according to his previous plan.
"Your Majesty, what should we do now?!"
As long as this heavy fog lightens up a little, the plan can proceed smoothly.
King Zhao also fell into silence. His right hand subconsciously rubbed an ancient jade in his hand. Zhang Wenbi on the side knew that this was a subconscious action that King Zhao only made when he was thinking and hesitating.
Before deciding to launch an army to appease the enemy, King Zhao spent a long time caressing the ancient jade.
Everyone in the military tent breathed softly, as if they were afraid of disturbing King Zhao's thinking and decision-making.
About half a quarter of an hour later, King Zhao opened his eyes and said, "The plan remains unchanged. We will implement it according to the original plan. Immediately send someone to inform the people upstream and start taking action!"
…
-----------------------------------------------
On the south bank of the Baigou River, the Pingjing army had begun to gather, and Zhong Yaqi became the vanguard of the army.
The vanguard army is the forerunner of the army. Although it has the greatest chance of gaining military exploits, it is also the most dangerous.
Among the Pingjing army, only Zhong Yaqi led the guards to sneak across the Baigou River at night. He was also the only one with actual experience in crossing the river, so he led the army to cross the river.
The soldiers of the Pingjing Army had all taken off their underwear, shoes and socks, and then wrapped them in oil paper that had been prepared long ago.
It is also difficult for Ping Jing's army to find so many oil papers in such a short period of time. Although each person only has a small piece of paper, it is an astronomical figure for an army of 100,000 people.
Under the leadership of Zhong Yaqi, the first batch of Pingjing soldiers descended into the cold and biting river water.
One morning, it was definitely one of the lowest temperatures, and there was already a thin layer of ice on the river.
The only good thing is that the water in this section of the Baigou River is very shallow, barely above a person's knees.
"hiss!"
"call!"
As the soldiers descended into the river, voices began to sound. When they suddenly came into contact with such cold river water, most of them were not mentally prepared and couldn't help but scream.
Fortunately, Zhao Tianlin was well prepared. All the soldiers involved in crossing the river held coins in their mouths. Even if they wanted to shout, they could not make too much noise.
Everything went smoothly. Zhong Yaqi's troops at the forefront had already crossed the Baigou River. Once they reached the other side of the river, Zhong Yaqi and the soldiers of the Pingjing Army wiped their bodies with cloth and quickly changed into pants and shoes.
socks, and then went into alert.
The war horses of the Pingjing Army crossed the river together. Compared with people, the war horses produced by these northern pastures are much more cold-resistant. The river water at this level is not a big problem for the war horses.
One hundred thousand Pingjing troops began to cross the river one after another.
On both sides of the Baigou River, there were patrols by the Pingjing Army's rangers, which was a common practice of the Zhou army during battles.
A small number of Ranger Sentries are deployed within five miles of the battlefield. These Ranger Sentries are roaming outside the battlefield. Their main purpose is to prevent the army from being attacked by surprise during battle.
Of course, these ranger sentries also serve the purpose of monitoring whether there are deserters.
The front army had already crossed the Baigou River, and then Zhao Tianlin personally led the Chinese army to begin crossing the river. Everything went more smoothly than expected. In less than half an hour, 70,000 soldiers and horses had crossed.
So far, no one has suffered non-combat casualties due to the cold water in the river.
Just after the Chinese army crossed the Baigou River, Zhao Tianlin seemed to hear something rushing from upstream.
Although he is old, he is skilled in martial arts and his hearing is still better than that of ordinary people.
So what if King Zhao's cavalry arrives? Now Pingjing's army has 70,000 soldiers and horses crossing the Baigou River and fighting in formation. Who will win and who will lose is yet to be known!
But soon, Zhao Tianlin discovered that the person who came was not a human being...
In the Pingjing Army camp, Zhao Wu has been obeying Zhao Tianlin's orders and leading an army of 100,000 to guard the camp and serve as a reserve force for the army.
Although there were a lot of people, the real Royal Forest Army and the elite Longwu Army were all taken away by Zhao Tianlin. Eighty thousand of these 100,000 troops were second-line troops drawn from the preparation troops and city defense troops in various places, and their combat power was completely
It cannot be compared with the Sixth Army of the Emperor.
Just when Zhao Wu was worried about the war, he noticed that the ground began to tremble slightly.
He immediately fell to the ground and listened, and the sound reached his ears clearly.
Cavalry, a large group of cavalry is approaching here.
The sound is getting louder and louder, and the human ear can already hear it.
The thunderous sound of hooves was extremely shocking in the thick white fog, as if some unknown monster was approaching.
There was no need for the scouts wandering outside the camp to report it. Zhao Wu, who had been staying in the camp, knew that a large group of enemy troops was coming as soon as he felt the ground tremble.
The main cavalry of the Pingjing Army are by the Baigou River at this moment, and it is impossible for them to return to camp at this moment.
Everything went as Zhao Tianlin expected. King Zhao indeed sent cavalry to make a sneak attack. There was no trace of panic on Zhao Wu's face. They had already been prepared for defense.
Although there are many plains and flat terrain in Jizhou, Zhao Tianlin's camp is built on several connected rolling hills.
This is his old habit of building a stronghold.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The camp of 200,000 warriors stretches for nearly ten miles. The camp faces south and is divided into four separate and interconnected camps in the southeast, northwest, and northwest.
In the middle of the camp is the main camp of the Chinese army.
In front of the Chinese army camp is a huge school field, and a hundred steps in front of the school field is the camp gate. The front of the camp is densely covered with horse traps, horse piles and other things. There is only a road more than ten feet wide in front of the camp for entry and exit.
.
If King Zhao's cavalry dares to attack without thinking, then this camp will become their burial place.
As soon as Zhao Wu put the army on alert, a group of cavalry broke through the white mist and appeared in front of Zhao Wu.
But I saw that the leader was extremely vicious.
The iron helmet is rippling with dark clouds; the camel leather armor is made of scales. The appearance is strange, like a black lion shaking its head; the body is majestic, like a ruthless Suan Ni wagging its tail. The two hammers dance, mistaken for Li Yuanba's rebirth; the horse roars, but like a black lion
Qilin appears. The truth is: if a country is born, it will be the death of the family, and the white tiger god comes to the Central Plains for the first time.
This person is none other than General Houjin, Wanyan Jinpinzi.
Before Hou Jin was destroyed by Zhao Tianlin, Zhu Kai took him under his command in advance.
Although he is ambitious, he is worthy of being a hero of his generation. Even his former enemies like Wanyan Jindanzi are now willing to work for him.
During this battle, after learning that the enemy he was facing was Zhao Tianlin, one of the enemies who destroyed his motherland, Wanyan Jindanzi took the initiative to ask for a fight.
Although King Zhao was suspicious, he still dared to employ people, and even handed Zhu Quan's most elite three thousand whirlwind magic sword riders to the command of Wanyan Jinpinzi.
A group of soldiers were wearing crimson embroidered moon armor, riding on horses with colorful brocade saddles and bridles. They rode with arrows straddled, held swords to clear the way, and led the way with tassels. As expected, the flags were bright, red tassels and brocade bridles, the cavalry galloping, and the sound of bells.
The ground was shaken like thunder.
Wanyan Jindanzi, who was riding in the lead, suddenly stopped his black horse when he was 200 steps away from the camp, beating drums and urns with a golden hammer in his hand, followed by the three thousand whirlwind magic swords that galloped behind him.
The horses stopped immediately.
From speeding to stillness, there was no panic between movement and silence, and everything was neat and orderly. Zhao Wu in the camp could clearly see the movements of King Zhao's rebel cavalry, and his heart sank slightly.
With such orders and prohibitions, only the most elite Tiance cavalry in the Zhou army can do this.
Among the remaining soldiers and horses, even the elite Weiyang Sword Cavalry in the Royal Forest Army may not be able to do this.
The Three Thousand Whirlwind Divine Sword Cavalry are the most elite cavalry under King Ning Zhu Quan and are the most heroic cavalry in the world.
In the land of Daning, a lot of accumulation was spent on equipment and training. These three thousand whirlwind sword cavalry have the best equipment and the best treatment. Only the most elite and brave cavalry among the three guards of Wuliangha can
Selected among them.
The actions of the Confederate Army in the camp did not make them feel timid, but instead added to the bloodiness of their battle. Even the Confederate Guards could only tremble under their iron hooves. The invincible three thousand whirlwind sword cavalry were the grassland.
Above the real eagle.
When Wanyan Jinpinzi saw Zhou Jun, he couldn't help but feel violent in his heart.
These people were the ones who destroyed his homeland. His uncle, his brothers and sisters all died at the hands of these people.
The princess of Hou Jin Dynasty, Di Ji, was rewarded as a concubine to the general of the Jinyang Army, and the nobles became slaves of the Zhou people. Thinking of this, the murderous intention of Wanyan's golden marbles came to his heart, and he wanted to smash all these people to death.
But he still resisted the violence in his heart, and the destruction of his country made this talented general mature.
He is not the commander-in-chief of the army this time. The real commander-in-chief is King Zhao's second son, Zhu Chi.
Not long after, a large group of people arrived.
Another figure came to the front of the formation. The figure was very brave and majestic. At first glance, he was a general.
This man was Zhu Kai's second son, Zhu Chi. Compared with his eldest son Zhu Kang, Zhu Chi was more favored by King Zhao and was brave and good at fighting. At the age of sixteen, he followed King Zhao to fight against Hou Jin in the north.
"Whoosh!"
Dozens of feather arrows suddenly shot out from the Pingjing Army camp.
Although he could only see a vague figure, Ping Jingjun also knew that this must be an important figure in the enemy's army.
Zhao Wu immediately ordered the arrows to be released.
Just when everyone thought they could hit, Wanyan's golden marbles immediately blocked Zhu Chi's way.
But seeing Wanyan's golden marbles, his complexion suddenly turned golden, and he caught the dozen or so feather arrows without dodging.
Even if he was hit by an arrow in his face, there would be no change at all, and the arrow that hit him would even be shattered by his face.
Not only his face, but Wanyan's golden marbles' hands were also the same. The other parts were covered by armor and difficult to see, but presumably they were also turned into gold.
Wanyan Jinpinzi is a descendant of Tianchi Weixia. After Gu Santong, he is the second person to have mastered the indestructible magical power by himself.
The appearance of the human body is like wearing golden armor, which can resist all attacks from external forces, strengthen the whole body into a golden body, and become an indestructible person who is invulnerable to weapons, water and fire.
The golden body is indestructible. Except for masters who far exceed their own skills, they are invincible and can lift mountains. They do not need any internal strength and can remain invincible by relying only on their own terrifying strength.
Such a person is an absolute killer on the battlefield, and a master of the same level must control his actions. Otherwise, he will cause huge damage to the enemy.
Even warriors in the realm of Fa Tian Xiang and Earth are not as terrifying as Wan Yan's golden marbles on the battlefield.
Zhu Chi stood on his bay-red horse, quietly observing the Confederate camp. He was just brave and good at fighting, not a foolhardy man.
Even if a frontal charge could break into the Confederate camp, it would still come at a huge cost, which was obviously unacceptable to Zhu Chi, whose military strength was inferior to that of the Confederate army.
"Wang Yang, where is Kui'an?!" Zhu Chi suddenly said.
"The end is here!"
"The general is here!" Two of the eighteen knights who had been standing quietly behind Zhu Chi suddenly rode out, clasped their fists and bowed.
These eighteen people are the eighteen captains under Zhu Chi who are capable of fighting, and they are eighteen heroic men from the land of Youyan. All of them have extraordinary martial arts and superb riding skills.
"You two will each lead a thousand of my elite cavalry and attack the enemy camp with rockets. Be careful not to rush in with the whole army. Be careful with powerful crossbows and focus on harassment!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "General, I will obey!" After Wang Yang and Kui An bowed to obey the order, they immediately clapped their horses and stepped forward slowly, each leading a thousand elite light cavalry.
Then Zhu Chi called the remaining six people to whisper a few words, and then the six people separated. Without each leading a thousand fine cavalry, they slowly submerged into the white mist again and disappeared in front of the camp. The sound of hoofbeats was like thunder and gradually became distant.
go.
Wang Yang and Kui An led two thousand elite light cavalry in a line, slowly approaching the front of the Pingjing Army's camp.
The horse-rejecting stakes and horse traps in front of the camp are all distributed within 200 steps in front of the camp. After these 200 steps, there will be a smooth plain without any obstruction.
Looking at the approaching cavalry of no more than three thousand, Zhao Wu felt a bad feeling in his heart.
Of course, it was not because of the two or three thousand cavalry, but because of the movement of thousands of cavalry who had not moved the enemy's main force and had just left.
The unknown always makes people feel worried.
Of course, he was not worried about Zhao Tianlin's troops. Zhao Tianlin led a total of fifteen armies this time, including fifty thousand elite soldiers as backup. These soldiers and horses were all the elites of the Royal Forest Army and were not comparable to the second-line garrison troops.
Thousands of cavalry cannot shake its foundation, and they will not pose much of a threat to Zhao Tianlin's troops.
"Ho Lie, Pingfeng! You two immediately lead 10,000 infantry each to support the east and west battalions. Be careful to prevent the rebels from breaking through from the flanks. If there are rebels attacking the camp, you must not let the rebels break the camp! If the two battalions on the left and right are lost.
, I’ll see you soon!” Zhao Wu’s commanding voice was filled with unshakable determination.
The two battalions on the left and right originally had more than 10,000 garrison troops each, and with the addition of these 10,000 reinforcements, even if they were to attack by force, it would be difficult to achieve a breakthrough in a short time.
