"General, don't be rash. The tempers of practitioners are always weird, so don't force yourself. When the time comes, I will go there in person to show my sincerity!"
The emperor seemed to be about to touch that level, and couldn't help but smile. As he finished speaking, a figure was riding over.
"Why does Your Majesty want to go there in person? The general also wants to take a look."
At this time, majestic words came from not far away. Chen Qingzhi was riding a white horse, dressed in military uniform. When the horse's back shook, the individual armor leaves rubbing against each other made a unique sound of metal.
"Hush!"
He reined in his horse and stopped, turned over, maintained proper etiquette, raised his hands and saluted, "Chen Qingzhi pays homage to His Majesty."
"Master Wudu is exempt from the gift."
Yuan Hao was always polite to General Liang, so he did not hide anything. He told what the small school had said, and also told him that he wanted to visit the Taoist temple in the mountains.
Chen Qingzhi frowned slightly, then clasped his fists heavily.
"Your Majesty, no, if we can conquer Xingyang, we should take advantage of the victory and capture Luoyang in one go, instead of stopping to look for a way in the mountains. If we miss the opportunity, Er Zhurong, Yuan Tianmu and other Wei armies will most likely rush ahead of us.
Rescue Luoyang and set up heavy defense lines. If we attack again then, it will be difficult to break through."
On the horse over there, Yuan Hao was stunned for a moment, staring at Chen Qingzhi who was bowing his head and clasping his fists. Then he laughed: "What Mr. Wu Du said is true. I am too impatient. It is better to attack Luoyang."
Thinking that the emperor's desire to find a way out was extinguished, Chen Qingzhi also breathed a sigh of relief, then left, quickly returned to the front, and rushed to Xingyang City east of Luoyang with his troops. This city must be conquered no matter what, so he could go around and attack Luoyang.
You will be attacked from both sides.
Under the flying flag, Yuan Hao looked at the white horse going away, and his smile gradually turned cold.
"If you don't lack, that's because you have it. But as an emperor, how can I let a general compete with me? How can I convince the people when I get to Luoyang?"
However, he looked as if nothing had happened and just waved his hand, asking Qiu Daqian to supervise the army to set up camp and help build siege equipment.
That afternoon, when they arrived in Xingyang and visited the important town with strong walls and high walls, both Chen Qingzhi and Yuan Hao felt extremely heavy.
Under the "Yuan", "Yang" and other flags flying at the top of the city, the figures of soldiers were full of energy. They patrolled by, and there was a smoke of energy. It was not comparable to the 20,000 imperial guards in the previous field battle. In addition, it was an important town, and they wanted to attack it.
Going up to the top of the city, the casualties incurred must be horrific.
Even more serious news was delivered to Chen Qingzhi at night.
The army of Shangdang Wang Yuantianmu was already on its way back. He sent his hussar general Erzhu Tumuer to lead five thousand Hu cavalry, and his cavalry general Lu An led Xiazhou's nine thousand cavalry to reinforce them. They arrived at the boundary of Xingyang in less than two days.
.
After listening to the guard's report, Chen Qingzhi clenched his fists and walked back and forth in the tent, his brows almost watering. He took off his cloak and hung it on the shelf, holding the White Dragon Sword presented by his husband and looking at it.
"If reinforcements from the Wei State are allowed to arrive, there will be no need to fight at all, and they will drag us to death."
"For the current plan, we can only attack the city in one go within two days, occupy Xingyang to capture Wei's reinforcements, and then find an opportunity to fight in the field."
He stood at the tent and looked at the night outside: "But if we want to attack the city in one go, I can only lead the troops in front..."
This is an extremely difficult choice. As the commander-in-chief of an army, it is reasonable to lead the cavalry to the front in the field, but it is different in the battle on the city. If you are not careful, you will be hit by an arrow and fall down the ladder to your death. This magic sword is in your hand.
I won't stop the arrow from missing for him.
When he was looking at the night in trance, the soldiers guarding the camp gate were shouting: "Who?!"
A sentry arrow shot into the sky.
There were dense figures in the wilderness, and the cloth wrapped around the soles of their feet was approaching silently. While clearing the hidden whistle, they fired whistle arrows and exploded in the night sky. The lurking figures got on their horses, raised their spears and launched a charge. This is from Xingyang
General Yuan Xianggong of the Fu army came out quietly and led two thousand cavalry, all of whom were elite.
He had often heard that the Liang general had a magic sword that was invincible on the battlefield, so he launched a night attack to avoid its sharp edge and catch the opponent by surprise.
Once successful, on this night, they can storm the camp and kill the pseudo-emperor Yuan Hao and the Liang general!
He pulled out the sword from his waist, listened to the whistle arrows exploding in the night sky, and shouted in a low voice: "Kill!"
Densely packed figures rode war horses and galloped through the night, stepping on tufts of grass in the field and rushing towards the Liang Kingdom military camp with a bonfire ahead.
…
At this time, Liang Jun's camp was already agitated. They pushed their horses against the camp gate. A large number of soldiers poured out of the tents and assembled in an orderly manner. Chen Qingzhi had not yet fallen asleep. He was already riding a horse with a white dragon sword and his personal guards.
In the former army camp, Liang soldiers were ordered to set up defenses in the camp and even pile tents on the ground. Once the camp gate was breached, they would light these flammable things to block the advance of the war horses.
Qiu Daqian was guarding the emperor in the Chinese army camp, and the troops descending from other directions were also coming quickly.
"coming!"
Feeling the ground shaking slightly, Chen Qingzhi tightened the hilt of his sword. In the sight of thousands of Liang soldiers, the rockets fired from the sentry tower streaked across the night sky. The firelight in a small area reflected the rushing torrents, and the rockets fell on the ground, followed by
It was stamped out.
"Prepare--"
Chen Qingzhi turned on his horse and tightened the reins. Amidst the sound of the horse's cry, he roared, "Get ready to meet the enemy!"
The gun array suddenly came forward, and long spears were used as buffers to hold up the Juma. On both sides were teams of shield soldiers holding steel knives to guard the gun array behind them. The archers were also protected and arranged in front of the front military camp.
As the last line of defense, they all have melee weapons on their waists. Once the enemy gets close, they will draw their blades and fight with them.
To become an archer, one's arm strength is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary soldiers, and one's endurance is sufficient. He is no worse than most elite infantry. Otherwise, how can he hold his bow for a long time and participate in the entire battle.
Rumble——
The sound of horse hooves shook the earth, and the wilderness outside the camp gradually became clearer. The next moment, arrows were flying and raining down on the sentry tower. The soldiers above were struck by arrows and fell, or they hid behind the shields hanging on the fence, and stood up from time to time to hold on.
The bow retaliates.
"Three hundred steps!"
In front of them, Colonel Liang Bing visually inspected the distance of the enemy in the dark night and shouted loudly, maintaining the gun formation behind the horse. Soldiers pressed the barrels of their guns in their hands, listening to the sound of iron hooves getting closer and closer, opening their mouths and breathing heavily.
, in the dark night, the sound of running turned into reality, and he could clearly see the Wei cavalry rushing in like a tide, charging at high speed.
"Seventy steps!"
In just a few breaths, they almost reached the camp gate. In the gun formation holding the front line, General Liang Junbing was extremely nervous. His pores were dilated, his hairs stood up, and his eye sockets were burning.
"Hold the gun and face the enemy!" was the final shout of a general.
The moment the rushing iron hooves exploded in front of the camp gate, countless soldiers heard different sounds as if they were hearing hallucinations.
"Everyone, please listen to the dragon's roar."
Roar——
Dragons roared across the fields, interrupting the roaring sound of iron hooves, making people's scalp numb.
A huge long shadow meandered in the quiet moonlight, and its scales brushed against the branches and leaves, making a soft rustling sound.
More than a dozen Wei cavalrymen who were about to hit the camp gate were suddenly turned upside down and slid on their sides for several feet.
The law——
The war horses roared loudly, slowed down, and stamped their hooves on the spot in fear, not daring to move forward.
