There was also a cavalry group that attacked the Rolling Stone Barracks. Fortunately, the Rolling Stone Barracks did not fall, but it also suffered huge losses.
The last of the three cavalry groups went all the way deep into the hinterland of the empire, burning, killing, and looting. In just one day, they traveled more than 200 miles.
Because of the fall of Jiudaowan Barracks, the entire Qin Empire was in panic.
When Jiudaowan fell, it happened to be the time when Zhao Yuan destroyed the Shixiang Iron Monument.
When Tieling learned that Jiudaowan Barracks had fallen, Cinu rushed out a cavalry of about two thousand people from the black forest. The cavalry was divided into several small groups and began to chase down the deserters at Jiudaowan Barracks.
Invincible all the way.
As the saying goes, the army was defeated like a mountain. Although there were only a few thousand assassins, due to their mobility and impressive riding and shooting skills, the soldiers who were attacked and escaped in the middle of the night had no weapons and equipment at all, let alone war horses. Commander
They didn't know where they were going, and they couldn't organize effective resistance at all. They collapsed one by one in the vast darkness, trying to escape for their lives.
When Zhao Yuan heard that Jiudaowan Barracks had fallen, he was suddenly not surprised.
Zhao Yuan still clearly remembered Lan Xin's activities on the edge of the Black Forest. Now thinking about it, she should be spying on the intelligence inside the Black Forest. With Lan Xin's noble status at the time, she personally spied on the intelligence. It can be seen that the assassination
The slaves' sneak attack on the imperial barracks through the dangerous Black Forest was premeditated and not a temporary decision.
There is no doubt that this is a well-arranged sneak attack!
Because the news of the destruction of the Ten Elephants Iron Monument has not yet reached the imperial capital, General Wu is still the top commander of the Tieling training camp.
General Wu's voice was low as he introduced the news of Jiudaowan's fall.
It was already late autumn, and there was a hint of chill in the early morning air.
The hundreds of students gathered on the playground did not make a sound.
"Right now, the intelligence is extremely confusing. We have lost contact with Blackwater City. There is news that the Great Hammer God is forming elite troops to pursue the assassin cavalry. There is also news that there are hundreds of thousands of assassin slaves outside Blackwater City. No matter what
How about it, we can't sit still and wait for death, because we are Tieling training camp, and every student who can enter this training camp is an elite of the Qin Empire!"
General Wu's voice was low, but full of determination to move forward.
General Wu didn't seem to be good at words. After briefly arranging some matters, the mobilization meeting ended quickly. Everyone was taken to the armory, where they each received their armor and began to take action.
After a group of students received a set of armor, Zhao Yuan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It takes more than ten hours to go from Tieling Training Camp to Jiudaowan Training Camp, even if you go non-stop. Here, the number of war horses is extremely rare, and they are all kept for the defense of Tieling. Only some ponies for carrying supplies can be borrowed.
, if everyone walked to Jiudaowan Barracks, they would be exhausted before the battle even started.
Besides, there were no supplies, no reinforcements, no intelligence, nothing. They were only two hundred people, and even if they rushed to Jiudaowan, they would die.
Of course, General Wu didn't mean to let everyone die. He hoped that everyone could find the scattered Jiudaowan soldiers and organize them to resist the assassins' rangers.
In fact, General Wu had no better way or better choice, because, except for a few hundred students, he had no soldiers at all. However, he had to do something. After repeated deliberation, Wu
The general decided to give these elites a chance. This opportunity has unlimited possibilities.
If they were ordinary soldiers, General Wu would not think so. However, these people are not ordinary soldiers. The lowest combat value among them exceeds 500, and there are many masters with a combat value of 2,000. They are elites, and they all
He is a master who can stand alone.
When General Wu made this decision, he was actually a little proud.
Release these elites and give them a broad platform to develop, whether they are dragons or worms, and the results will be immediate.
It has to be said that General Wu is also a man with military foresight. There are only less than 500 elite students in the Tieling training camp. These 500 soldiers without horses cannot change the situation of the war. However, if these nearly five hundred soldiers are placed on the battlefield,
Hundreds of people dispersed, forming countless wedges to pry into enemy-occupied areas. Even if only one wedge worked, then this was a successful operation...
…
"Each one fights"
This is General Wu's purpose.
When Yang Cheng and Lu Feng saw Xiao Mazi disappearing into the darkness with a group of his students, they both had wry smiles on their faces.
what to do?
Both of them looked at each other with a look of inquiry on their faces.
Lu Feng was from Jiudaowan Barracks. Although he was very skilled, he had no combat experience. Among Zhao Yuan's group of students, only Yang Cheng had field combat experience.
The important responsibility naturally fell on Yang Cheng.
Yang Cheng is worthy of having rich combat experience. He does not monopolize power, but pools wisdom. Elite students believe that their physical fitness is generally not as good as that of Xiao Mazi's group. If they rush all night like them, even to reach the destination,
They would also be half exhausted. In the end, everyone unanimously decided to borrow some pony horses and awning carts in Tieling. Not only could they save physical strength, but they could also bring some weapons and food with them. When they met those soldiers who were not defeated, they could also help
They distributed weapons and armor.
When soliciting opinions, Zhao Yuan did not say much. Leading troops to fight was not his strong point.
Immediately, Yang Cheng personally negotiated with the Tieling side. The Tieling side was generous and did not make any difficulties. They allocated all Tieling's twenty awning carriages and seventy pony horses to Yang Cheng and his group of students.
After two hours of preparation, twenty carriages drove out of Tieling in a mighty manner.
Before leaving, Zhao Yuan thought of the dozens of masters imprisoned in the prison. If they were brought to the battlefield, wouldn't they be invincible? Immediately, Zhao Yuan thought of getting them out legally in a short time.
It's extremely slim. It seems that we can only find a chance next time.
There is another reason. Those masters are too powerful and Zhao Yuan has no way to control them, so the risk is too great.
…
"General, this Yang Cheng is very thoughtful and can be reused!" A group of officers surrounded General Wu.
"Yes, they are thoughtful and well prepared, but they are too conservative in their thinking and lack the spirit of adventure. Moreover, such a large convoy has an obvious goal. Whether they have war horses or not, it may be difficult to avoid the assassins' rangers... I hope
They can handle it..."
"General, it's a bit strange that the Cinu people suddenly launched an attack without warning. Moreover, they seem to know the Great Qin Empire very well... they are suspicious of the low position... they suspect that there are spies. Moreover, with so many Cinu cavalry, supply itself is a problem.
, I speculate that they have many scattered secret supply bases in the Great Qin Empire..."
"There are definitely spies, but we can't make a definite conclusion yet. However, the Cinu people rely on a few cavalry... bad!" General Wu's face suddenly changed.
"General!"
"These cavalry groups are a tactic to divert the tiger away from the mountain. They are intended to disrupt the layout of Heishui City and prevent several large military camps from rushing to the aid of Heishui City."
"What should we do?"
A group of instructors suddenly looked anxious. If thousands of assassin cavalry, no matter how powerful they are, cannot shake the foundation of the empire, the most they can do is to kill a few people. After a few barracks have calmed down, they will immediately close their doors and fight.
Dogs will be strangled mercilessly, but Blackwater City is different. Once Blackwater City falls, the southern gate of the empire will be completely opened, and the assassins can use their cavalry advantage to advance straight in. By then, the empire will be in danger
