The carved feather arrow was turned in his hand, Zhu Biao shook his hands and hit the general surnamed Ma.
This group of people used the magical power of a snap of their fingers to fire an arrow so fast that no shadow could be seen. The general named Ma didn't even react. A bloody hole was drilled out of the facade, and the horse fell down.
Down.
"General, look at the arrows!"
With a thunderous shout, Zhu Biao raised his eyes and saw a group of flying cavalry approaching on horseback a hundred steps away. The leader had a general flag with the word "Tang" behind him. His eyebrows looked like Qing Jun, but what do you think now?
But there is a trace of ferocity in them all.
The war horse under his crotch was galloping rapidly, but the general named Tang was sitting steadily on the horse's back, drawing his bow and drawing an arrow. The sharp arrow clusters shone with a hint of star cold, and they were already firmly locked on him.
Tang? That’s Tang Qing? A question flashed in Zhu Biao’s mind.
At this time,
"call out--"
There was a sharp sound of breaking through the air, and with a flash of cold light, the sharp eagle-feathered arrows had already been fired close to him. This speed and force were much stronger than the arrow just now. "Tang Qing——" Zhu Biao thought to himself in his heart
This name is the commander-in-chief of the 30,000 Sizhou Army.
With a flash of the silver gun in his hand, the arrow flew away without any surprise, and then he smiled coldly at Tang Qing who was coming to kill him. "I'll settle the matter with you next time!"
"Let's go!" he waved his gun and shouted at the 500 cavalrymen behind him. No matter how brave Zhu Biao was, he would not waste any more time here. He was facing an army of 30,000 people. He looked at Sizhou, which was already swarming around him.
Tang Qing didn't just come with a group of infantry troops. Zhu Biao wielded his silver spear and effortlessly opened a gap, and led his troops to rush out.
A small city on the northern border of Jizhou, where the king of Tang Dynasty camped.
The night was deep, and blazing torches illuminated the walls on all sides of the small town. Tens of thousands of heavily armored soldiers stood solemnly on the walls of the east, west, north, and south. On the city gate tower, the leading general's vigilant eyes searched from time to time.
Looking at the vast black land outside the city, not daring to miss the slightest movement or noise.
Although there are no less than a hundred stakes hidden in this darkness, there are even top experts on guard among them.
The night wind was blowing, and there was a dead silence between heaven and earth. Only the burning torches made the sizzling sound of grease exploding from time to time——
"There is a sound!" General Beimen suddenly put up his earphones vigilantly. After listening to the sound for a moment, his face suddenly sank, and he shouted sternly to a soldier behind him, "Three beats of the drum——"
As soon as the general finished speaking, the faint sound of horse hooves came from the distance——
There are not many people, so they must be one of our own, right? Otherwise, they would have been captured by the masters who were ambushing them.
The general asked himself this in his heart, but he still did not dare to relax. There were only a dozen riders who heard the sound, but this did not mean that they were not a threat.
Around the county, there are one hundred thousand soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, who are stationed ten miles away and camped in all directions. If there were assassins in the city, it would be easy for them to get in, but it would be extremely difficult for them to escape.
"Dong dong dong -" Three drum sounds, the fierce drum sound shattered the silent and cold night, and the city wall was boiling instantly...
A military academy student was sleeping soundly in a building. When he heard the sound of drums, he immediately jumped up and, while wearing an iron helmet on his head, asked sharply: "What's going on? Why are you beating the drums?"
The soldier on guard at one side immediately replied: "Report to the captain, there are unknown cavalry approaching, about ten cavalry..."
"Huh?" The captain's face condensed, and he hurriedly rushed to the top of the dish building. He held the crenel on the top of the dish building with his hand and looked around with all his strength. He saw that the outline of a cavalry was indeed faintly visible on the dark ground outside the city.
, coming straight towards the county seat.
"Crossbowman—get ready—"
When the leading captain gave an order, more than a hundred foot archers on the city wall immediately took out sharp arrows from their quivers and placed them on the bow strings. The same number of crossbowmen also picked up their crossbows one by one, and two to three hundred people lined up along the battlements.
In the front and rear rows, long bows were fully drawn, crossbows were strung up, sharp eagle-feathered arrows were strung out on the strings, and crossbow arrows were lying in the wire troughs, all aimed at the not far away and galloping towards them.
This little band of cavalry—
This is just one foot of the city wall. On the entire north city wall, regardless of whether the shooting range is reached or not, all the crossbowmen under the captain are ready first-hand.
"Open the city gate, open the city gate quickly -" While waiting, a horse suddenly galloped out from the group of people, blowing like the wind to the bottom of the city. Looking through the blazing fire of the city tower, I saw only the horse on the horse
He is a handsome young general.
"Ah, it turns out he is the son of General Zhu's family." The captain immediately recognized the man. He was the general of the Tang Dynasty and one of the main generals of the Tang army who attacked Hu Wanwan in the north - Fenwu General Zhu Wu's son Zhu
Hong.
"Hurry up and open the city gate. I have an urgent matter to report to the king on my father's orders." Zhu Hong showed a gold medal in his hand.
A figure flew down from the top of the city. After checking the authenticity of the gold medal, his eyes swept over the faces of the dozen followers behind Zhu Hong. Without saying a word, another one got up and flew to the top of the city.
After a moment, "Major General, wait a moment, the general will open the door right now." The voice of the North City guard rang out from the city gate. After a while, the infantry archers and strong crossbowmen all retreated, chirping, chiming, and the wooden windlass turned.
With a loud sound, the suspension bridge was lowered, and then the heavy city gate opened...
If he had galloped thousands of miles to meet the king of Tang Dynasty, Zhu Wu would not have done this unless it was something important, let alone send his son to suffer such a hardship.
It was actually because of changes in the battle situation in Beiyu that the leader of Zhu Wu's "miscellaneous army" with a full strength of 100,000 people was killed.
The miscellaneous army is not a direct lineage army. If it is a direct lineage of the Tang Dynasty King, Zhu Wu can allocate the army or appoint another general of the army without reporting to the Tang Dynasty King. But the miscellaneous army is different, they are not the Tang Dynasty King's.
The army, but more importantly the army of the imperial court.
Although these troops were first transferred out of their bases by the King of Tang and incorporated into the Northern Relief Corps. Later, because all the food and grass supplies were in the hands of the King of Tang, they had to work for the King of Tang. However, their system was different from that of the King of Tang.
It has never been integrated.
Therefore, the successor to the commander-in-chief of this army became a major problem for Zhu Wu.
The King of Tang did not dare to show any ill thoughts towards these armies. It would be great fun if they misunderstood that the King of Tang wanted to annex them.
Now there is a "tacit understanding" between the miscellaneous army and the King of Tang, but this is because the King of Tang abides by a bottom line. The miscellaneous army can continue to consume the Hu and Di clan on the Beiyu battlefield, but the King of Tang must not annex the troops and pull the troops together.
Return to the Central Plains to fight with the imperial court.
Therefore, it is of great significance to influence the whole body.
"Why did Wang Renxuan die?" Among the generals of the miscellaneous army, Wang Renxuan was one of the most famous. Ji Fa was a "king on the outside but a saint on the inside". He was still thinking about when he would be included in his subordinates. How could he disappear?
Or did Wang Renxuan succumb to the enemy's death quickly when his own troops and horses were not seriously damaged?
"It sounds like you fell into the barbarian's trick of provoking generals?"
"Your Majesty, Hu Chief Uwetuo really bullied people too much and just harassed them with his light cavalry. After all, this is a common thing for military strategists. However, in order to buy Hu Di's main force a little more time, he poisoned General Wang on his way to advance.
They dig traps, destroy water sources, use all possible means, and beat gongs and drums to keep people awake day and night. These methods make people angry."
"After many days of attacks, news of our army's great victory came from the east road. Then there was news that Hu Di's main force wanted to retreat. General Wang didn't want to attack Hu Di's main force, but wanted to capture Uweituo.
To relieve the hatred of the past few days. After learning the news, I observed for another day and found that Uwetuo was very abnormal. He was harassed twice in the morning, but he disappeared throughout the afternoon. In the evening, the vanguard of the entire army was
It was hard to get a peaceful sleep.
General Wang then realized that Wuweituo had heard the news and fled far away, so he hurriedly led 10,000 cavalry in the army to pursue him. As a result, he was ambushed halfway. Of the 10,000 light cavalry, only less than 2,000 troops and horses escaped. General Wang
He was seriously injured and returned to camp, but died within two days of treatment."
"Wang Renxuan was the vanguard of the Central Route Army. If he dies, will the Central Route Army be able to reach Mount Aji on time?" Ji Fa looked better. Wang Renxuan's death was excusable. He made a series of decisions before he decided to send out Qingqi to chase.
His observation and judgment can prove that he is not a foolhardy general. His vision is not wrong, but there are mountains outside the mountains, and there are people outside the people. Wang Renxuan met a wiser person.
"This little man doesn't know. After General Wang passed away, his army was left without a master. My father did not dare to make a decision in vain, so he ordered the little man to come and see the king quickly."
But you know the result if you think about it. The East Route Army had just won the battle, and the vanguard of the Central Route Army was cut off by Hu Qi, which destroyed the general Wang Renxuan. It would be a strange thing if it could still go smoothly.
When Zhu Hong took the order to come to the Central Plains, the entire vanguard camp was boiling. The resentment in the hearts of 70,000 to 80,000 soldiers could ignite the air.
Think about how they lived in the past few days.
It's getting dark. Find a place to camp with open water. Then you will definitely see Hu Qi's dirty tricks. He either poisons the upstream of the water source, or leaves pigs, sheep, rats and other carrion corpses in the stream. This will cause harm to the vanguard army.
The loss is not huge, but it is very troublesome and disgusting.
Then when night comes, Uweituo will send men and horses to beat gongs and drums and make a lot of noise outside the Wang Renxuan military camp. When the soldiers and horses from the vanguard army camp come out, they will flee like rabbits.
Go, but when the vanguard troops returned to camp and just went to sleep, they who had escaped earlier came back again.
Wang Renxuan was very disturbed, and the soldiers in the camp could not rest in peace. In the end, he had no choice but to rely on his large number of soldiers and send tens of thousands of soldiers to keep watch at night. They even set up camps separately and used small camps to block Uwetuo.
Surround and attack the escape routes of small troops.
Under such circumstances, Wang Renxuan was able to make so many considerations and observations before sending troops, and his military quality was indeed good. It is a pity that he withered on the grasslands beyond the Great Wall so early.
Now that even Wang Renxuan is dead, the entire vanguard force is like a boiling pot of water that may explode at any time.
A general who can convince the masses must be arranged as soon as possible to lead this army and suppress the dissatisfaction and depression in the hearts of the soldiers. (To be continued. Please search Piao Tian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
