Chapter 1062 The Demon Soldier Approaches the City
In front of the Youshou Pass, Lin Xiaoyun, who had just taken over the military affairs of the entire army, immediately began to prepare for war without stopping.
In addition to the 1.2 million Yin and Yang Guards she brought here, there are also 800,000 standing troops who were stranded at Youshou Pass during the previous war.
The composition of the standing army stationed at Youshou Pass is extremely complex!
Most of the troops are organized Yin soldiers drawn from various places.
Because of the defeat in the first war, various soldiers suffered heavy losses.
Although some troops still bear the designation of a hussars battalion, their number is less than a hundred.
What's more, a small flag officer actually has to perform the duties of a school captain.
There are so many problems that it has become a trouble that must be solved now.
In order to completely resolve his worries before the war, Lin Xiaoyun had to reorganize the two groups of people.
The important task of assisting in the defense of the city naturally fell on the Black Flag Army.
On the tower of Youshou Pass, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, who were seconded under orders, were patrolling the tower.
Because of the need to combine forces for training, the current Youshou Pass city defense can only be defended by the two of them.
As soon as we boarded the city tower, dust was flying outside the city, dark clouds covered the sky, and densely packed armored troops came all at once.
"It's his fault. He didn't come early or late, but he came just when I was busy training. He really knows how to pick the time."
Zhang Fei stared at Tong Ling and clutched Zhang Ba Snake Spear tightly in his palm.
"Forget it, after I poke ten thousand holes in him first, I want to see how many of them in the camp are not afraid of death."
The news that the demons are about to raise troops to conquer the underworld has spread, and the Beilan Army, as the vanguard, is the focus of attention.
Now that the army is coming, you don't need to guess to know that it must be the Suzaku Banner Army attacking the city.
"Don't be reckless in Yide, it's more important to defend the city!"
Zhao Yun grabbed Zhang Fei's clothes in time and persuaded him.
"Yide, all the armies are busy training at the moment. The only defense for the city is the Black Flag Army brought by you and me. Once something goes wrong, we will never be able to atone for our sins even if we die."
Zhao Yun knows how powerful it is!
At this time, it is really not advisable to open the city gate rashly and let Zhang Fei go out to fight.
If follow-up reinforcements are not sent in time, there may be a risk of losing the city at any time.
However, after hearing this, Zhang Fei disagreed!
"Don't worry, Zilong. Second Mistress is in the city. Once she learns that the troops outside the city are approaching, she will definitely send people to support her."
Zhang Fei patted his chest and said loudly and confidently.
"Furthermore, there are only 40,000 troops of you and me stationed at the gate tower of Nuo. How can we defend against the hundreds of thousands of tiger and wolf troops outside the city?"
"In my opinion, we should disrupt their position while they are still on a weak footing, and perhaps frighten them to buy time."
What Zhang Fei said is certainly reasonable, but Zhao Yun has a different view on this.
After all, it was the Suzaku Army who came!
As the vanguard of the rise of the demon clan, Chonglou will definitely not send just a few troops to knock on the door.
The tens of thousands of Black Flag troops brought by the two of them alone were indeed a bit stretched.
"That's true, but after all, there is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ours. Once you leave the city and are surrounded, I don't even have the men and horses to rush to your rescue."
Zhao Yun patted Zhang Fei on the shoulder and sighed: "Now that my lord is trapped, if there is another mistake in the underworld, you and I will become unforgivable sinners."
"this..."
Zhao Yun's words really spoke to Zhang Fei's heart!
Ever since Cao Ning was trapped in Hunyuan Bell, the Black Flag Army suddenly fell into a dead situation without a leader.
If it weren't for Xia Shihan's strong support and the support of a few of their diehards, the Black Flag Army would have disbanded long ago.
And now that the war is imminent, they really can't afford to make any more mistakes.
"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have brought more people over!"
Zhang Fei sighed in annoyance!
At this moment, he was no longer in a hurry to fight, and just stood there with his eight-foot-long snake spear in his hand and glared.
What Zhao Yun said makes sense!
Tens of thousands of black flag troops are not enough to defend the city, how can they still fight with others?
If you rush out rashly, wouldn't that mean you're going to kill the other party?
But even if they don't leave the city, can they defend it with just a few people?
All this is unknown!
Just when the two were having trouble defending the city, a scout investigating the military situation suddenly came to report.
"Report! Report to the two generals that the enemy's vanguard of 300,000 troops has arrived at the city."
"Three hundred thousand?"
Hearing this number, Zhang Fei frowned unconsciously.
Although this number is far lower than the troop strength they expected!
But compared to the number of men and horses they currently have available, there are still too many more.
"Niang Xipi, you are all a bunch of cowards and stinky sweet potatoes. If you don't dare to fight alone, you will just rely on your own numbers." Zhang Fei beat the city wall angrily.
"General, it seems that is not the case!"
The soldier who sent the message looked at Zhang Fei dully and said awkwardly: "General Zhou Yu divided the 300,000 forwards into ten groups, each group has 30,000 people, and lined up in batches to guard the pass. It seems that they are going to use wheel fighting.
.”
"What, the vanguard general leading the army is Zhou Yu'er? Hehe, you really get whatever you want!"
When he heard that it was Zhou Yu who was leading the army, Zhang Fei was as excited as a three-year-old child.
Zhang Fei jumped up and down excitedly, then patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.
"Zilong, this time the trouble is solved!"
"Solved? What can Yide say? Could it be that you have a personal relationship with Zhou Gongjin?" Zhao Yun asked doubtfully.
"I have a shitty personal relationship with him!"
Zhang Fei carried Zhangba's snake spear and said excitedly: "Zilong, you don't know how arrogant this Zhou Gongjin is. When the military advisor made a little plan, he was half angry to death. I think he divided his troops this time just to try it out first."
Test the waters.”
"After all, he has been tricked so many times by military advisors, so it is inevitable for him to be more cautious."
"But the military advisor is not here, how can we make him be on guard and not dare to act without permission?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Hehe, this is easy to handle!"
Zhang Fei bared his teeth and grinned, waving his arms and immediately summoned several younger brothers.
After he whispered a few words in his ear, the group immediately headed straight out of the city.
