Four hundred and seventieth chapters arrow piercing through the sky to rob food and grass
The wind was gusts of cold wind, like thousands of ghosts crying, circling and howling on the ancient road!
The horse whistled, raised the rolling dust and smoke, falling with the wind, bent the green grass on both sides of the ancient road...
"Report to the general, a rebel army was found ten miles ahead, including about 5,000 cavalry and 20,000 infantry!" A scout ran to Lin Yu's face and reported respectfully.
Lin Yu nodded slightly and said, "Afeng, you lead five thousand cavalry to the rear of the rebels to prevent them from being defeated and fleeing. We, Lin Yong, led the remaining 10,000 cavalry, charge head-on and launch an attack.
We attacked both sides!"
"Okay, Brother Lin, I understand, please do it!" After Afeng responded, he led five thousand cavalry toward the rear of the rebels!
Ten miles away, a scout rushed to a bearded general, saying, "General, I found a group of Ming cavalry ahead, and were coming towards us with great momentum!"
"What, a group of Ming cavalry, how many of them are there?" The bearded general asked in surprise.
The scout replied: "Report to the general, the number is about 10,000!"
When the bearded general heard the scout's report, he couldn't help laughing and said, "I dare to come here to act wildly. Today, I will let them go without a reply and send orders to prepare for battle!"
However, as soon as the bearded general finished speaking, a rapid sound of horse hooves had already heard.
"Show me an arrow!" The bearded general knew that he had only five thousand cavalry, so he did not directly let the cavalry fight, but first let the infantry shoot the war horses and enemy cavalry with arrows.
However, Lin Yu led the cavalry and suddenly stopped at 300 steps. The average bow and arrow range was 150 steps, so it was difficult to shoot a distance of 300 steps. Even if it could barely shoot, the arrow would still float.
There is no lethality at all!
Seeing that the Ming general had seen through his intentions, the bearded general couldn't help but curse angrily and shouted: "Come on the bow and arrow!"
The bearded general's sharp arrow broke through the air and passed through three hundred steps, and went straight to Lin Yu's throat!
Bang!
Lin Yu waved his sword and directly slashed the bow and arrow that was about to exhaust his lethality to the ground, and then he also ordered his personal soldiers: "Get the bow and arrow!"
When the bow was placing a string, the bow and arrow broke through the air with a "whirlwind" sound!
Bang!
The bearded general also shot another arrow, and two long arrows collided violently in the air.
But it is obvious that Lin Yu's long arrow had the upper hand. However, although the bearded general seemed very shocked, he was not convinced. If this long arrow did not collide with his long arrow in mid-air, it would be better if it were the first time he would not have collided with his long arrow in the air.
It will have some lethality. Even if it flies over and shoots on a person, it will be like itchy and it will not be able to wear out his iron armor at all.
Whoosh!
Puff!
However, the sharp arrow penetrated his throat in an instant, causing him to suddenly spit out another mouthful of blood!
The bearded general was thinking just now. The long arrow that had been before had no chance of shooting himself. He just flew to the front of the war horse and fell down softly. Another sharp arrow shot to kill him.
Just as the two arrows collided violently in the air, Lin Yu took advantage of the bearded general's attention and was on it, and then shot another sharp arrow.
As expected, the bearded general was not prepared. To be precise, he was not prepared for his sudden cold arrow and was shot to death on the spot!
"General, general..." Several deputy generals and the personal soldiers of the bearded general came forward with a shocked expression when they saw that their general was shot and killed.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Lin Yu put three sharp arrows on the bowstring and shot three figures with the appearance of ten thousand men around the bearded general.
"Brothers, rush with me and kill!" Lin Yu suddenly raised the Qingfeng Sword and shouted loudly.
Before the rebels could react, Lin Yu's ten thousand iron cavalry came to his sight from three hundred steps away.
With a direct charge, the five thousand cavalry of the rebels were defeated like a mountain collapse. Not to mention the twenty thousand infantry, they fled around.
"Retreat, withdraw..." The only surviving commander, immediately shouted at the top of his throat when he saw this.
"kill!"
However, before he turned his horse's head, there was another shocking shout of killing from behind!
Seeing the situation, Lin Yu suddenly jumped up, and waved the Qingfeng Sword in the air. Before the captain understood what was going on, he was surprised to find that his head had rolled under the horse's hooves.
Lin Yu picked up the bloody head of the captain and shouted anxiously: "Your general is dead. Anyone who surrenders with his weapons will not be killed! Swear to resist to the death and kill without mercy!"
The rebels were basically the highest generals left, and there were only the commanders of the thousand men. Several commanders looked at each other in a glance, hoping that the other party would start first, so that even if they went back in the future, they would be very good.
An excuse to justify yourself.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
Seeing that several commanders were hesitating, Lin Yu was not polite at all. The Qingfeng Sword broke through the air, and the remaining six commanders all rolled down to his feet.
"I have tried dozens of times, and anyone who has not put down his weapons will be killed without mercy!" Lin Yu raised the Qingfeng Sword again and shouted suddenly.
"ten!"
When they shouted "Ten", all the rebels, cavalry, infantry, all took a breath of air conditioning and looked around with horror.
"Nine!"
"eight!"
"seven!"
When Lin Yu shouted "Seven", some people had already put down their weapons and started to take off their armor!
"six!"
"five!"
"Four!"
Just when Lin Yu was about to shout "Three", most of the rebels' weapons had been put down.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
"Time is up, those who surrender without putting down their weapons will be killed without mercy!" Lin Yu shouted suddenly. Before he could finish his words, the Qingfeng Sword had already flew out of the air and directly pushed a centurion who was still holding the weapon tightly.
Kill.
Then he rode his horse and rushed into the rebels with a thousand-man cavalry.
Before the rebels could react, more than 500 soldiers who had not put down their weapons were completely killed in an instant.
The remaining rebels who were still holding weapons in their hands and their necks were still on their heads were so scared that they hurriedly threw away the weapons in their hands and began to take off their armor.
Seeing that all the rebels had put down their weapons, Lin Yu shouted anxiously: "All the centurions and above who participated in the massacre of the people in Zhongmu City will stand up automatically!"
After Lin Yu's intimidation and temptation, 127 centurions, thirteen deputy commanders, five thousand men and one deputy commander, were all beheaded.
At this time, the more than 20,000 rebels, whether they were the high-level command system or the grassroots command system, were completely paralyzed. In order to achieve the goal of controlling this force, Lin Yu placed his personal soldiers in it and served as a 100-year-old.
A position of chief. Some centurions with command experience are promoted to commanders of thousands of men.
Lin Yu had just put all this in place, and a rush of sound of horse hooves came over.
"General, the rebels' 200,000 stones of food and grass were all intercepted. The 5,000 rebels and a thousand coachmen who were responsible for escorting the grain were all captured!" The sound of horse hooves was still ringing, and Zhao Yanhui's voice was already there.
It came over.
Seeing this, Lin Yu nodded slightly and said, "General Zhao is doing a good job. By the way, have the rebels' food and grass be handed over to Xu Zhanjun and others?"
Zhao Yanhui responded respectfully: "General, don't worry, more than 5,000 prisoners and 200,000 stones were all handed over to Xu Shenjun. At this time, they were rushing towards Zhengzhou City."
Lin Yu nodded gently and said, "At this time, Jun Buhui and Liang Cheng don't know that their food and grass have been robbed. Now we have 35,000 cavalrymen and more than 18,000 infantrymen.
With more than 53,000 troops, we took the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters and killed them. We must not let Kaifeng Prefecture follow Zhongmu City and become the second ghost creature on earth."
"Yes, General!" Zhao Yanhui was so excited that he couldn't speak when he heard Lin Yu's words. No matter what, he had a chance to avenge his previous shame and avenge his brothers.
Just as Lin Yu and others were about to raise the sword of revenge and stab Liang Cheng and Jun Buhui's heart, they were leading nearly 300,000 soldiers under their command to attack Kaifeng Prefecture!
Originally, they thought that the prefect Liu Xushou, the prefect of Kaifeng, was a military idiot, with a large army of 100,000, just a group of mobs. So naturally, they thought that the 50,000 Ming troops who stayed in Kaifeng City were also vulnerable.
However, at this time, they were very wrong. First of all, although Liu Xushou was a military idiot, he was not stupid. Generally, fools could not become such a high-ranking official as the prefect of Kaifeng.
Kaifeng Prefecture is located on the bank of the Yellow River. It is the prefecture that suffered severe damage to the Yellow River this time. In addition, Kaifeng Prefecture's economic prosperity and the surrounding areas have millions of people.
Liu Xushou was another honest and honest official, so almost all the food in stock was distributed to the people. This is also the important reason why Kaifeng Prefecture suffered a disaster, which was much greater than Luoyang, but it did not appear like Luoyang, with the tragic phenomenon of floating corpses everywhere.
The grain warehouse has no grain, so naturally I can't afford to raise these more than 100,000 soldiers who have to open their mouths to eat. Usually, they can let them have half farming and half soldiers, and self-sufficiency is no problem. However, in this war, there is a serious lack of military sources, so naturally it is
It can't be like usual.
So Liu Xushou remembered a good way to kill two birds with one stone. He drew 50,000 elite troops from Kaifeng Prefecture and surrounding troops, and left behind Kaifeng Prefecture, and led the remaining 100,000 soldiers.
Sent to Zhengzhou City. First, it was to respond to the call of the emperor, and second, it could fundamentally solve the food problems of the soldiers of Kaifeng Prefecture.
Although Liu Xushou believed that killing two birds with one stone harmed himself and 100,000 soldiers, it also left a tough bone for Jun Buhui and Liang Cheng.
At this time, the 50,000 elite troops from Kaifeng Prefecture were led by the general Peng Tianchong and the guard Liu Zetong, and used the power of Kaifeng Prefecture's strong city to resist to the death!
Originally, Liang Cheng and Jun Buhui thought that Kaifeng Mansion could be defeated in two hours. However, three hours have passed, but they have not even touched the city gate. They were so angry that they killed them in succession.
Several commanders who led the team to charge were just the first to rush forward. Liang Cheng was once again furious, causing his chrysanthemums to bloom and had to go down to recuperate...
