After receiving Huang Zhong's order, the entire army also speeded up instantly and rushed towards Lou Baisha.
Just as Huang Zhong requested, the 50,000-strong army marched for two days in one and a half days, and marched directly to Baisha in the afternoon.
"General, something bad has happened. The Chinese army has arrived."
When the Chinese army arrived, the Kushan army in the city immediately responded and came over to report to Enter.
"They came so quickly. As expected, they are still that vigorous and resolute Chinese army. Follow me immediately to the city wall."
Enter was a little surprised when he heard that the Chinese army was coming, but he was also prepared. After all, the Chinese army was an elusive party in his thoughts. The scouts reported that they would arrive in two days, and he had even done so.
Prepare for the Chinese army to arrive at the city within one day.
One and a half days gave him an extra half day, and he should be grateful that God gave him an extra half day to prepare.
Soon Enter led a group of soldiers to the city wall. Naturally, they could not see the Chinese army now, so he could feel the atmosphere of the battle in advance.
"The army has arranged the barracks. These are left to Generals Zhou Tai and Jiang Qin, General Wei Yan, and General Xu Chu. Come with me to Loubaisha City to see what the highest capital of the Kushan Empire looks like."
When the army arrived, Huang Zhong did not think about launching any lightning attack. Now that the army had nothing, it simply did not meet the conditions. Moreover, the army was tired and needed a rest.
"I'll go with the general too. I've long heard that Loubaisha is prosperous. I want to see how it works."
Hearing that Huang Zhong was going to explore Lou Baisha, Zhou Yu also became interested. He also wanted to see what Lou Baisha was like.
"Okay, then Staff Officer Zhou Yu will come with us."
Huang Zhong nodded, and then led Xu Chu, Wei Yan and Zhou Yu to the gate of Lou Baisha under the protection of his personal guards.
As the capital of the Kushan Empire, Loubaisha occupies a large area. However, because it is located in the Guishan Fortress, the city wall is not high, only about eight meters. Compared with the walls of those fortress-type cities that are often more than ten meters long, it is indeed a bit difficult to see.
Eye.
"This is Lou Baisha, that's what it looks like."
Wei Yan glanced at Lou Baisha in front of him and couldn't help but curl his lips slightly. It was simply impossible to block him.
"Well, Lou Baisha's city defense is indeed not strong, at least not as good as those powerful cities we captured. So it seems that your Majesty made the right move."
Zhou Yu also nodded. To be honest, he didn't expect the situation here. He had already made a plan. Even if the other side's city wall was really like those fortress cities, more than ten meters high, he didn't expect it to be only that high. It was really rough.
.
"Then should we go back and arrange soldiers to prepare to attack the city?"
Xu Chu glanced at Huang Zhong, and the current situation was like this. Since God was going to give them this opportunity, it would obviously be against heaven not to seize it.
"Well, there's nothing more to see. Let's go back to camp and get ready."
Huang Zhong also nodded, there is nothing more to say now, just do it.
"General, what do you think that is?"
Huang Zhong and others were exploring the Loubaisha city wall. The Kushan garrison on the city wall also discovered the other party's presence, and someone immediately came to report to Enter.
"How many cavalry are there in the city?"
Enter also saw Huang Zhong and others outside the city. He immediately understood that this must be the leader of the Chinese army, coming to investigate the situation in Lou Baisha. If this was the case, then don't blame yourself for attacking first.
"Report to the general, most of the cavalry in the city have been taken away by your majesty. There are only about 300 cavalry in the city now. If we count the 200 cavalry you brought back, there are now 500 cavalry available to fight."
Kansak glanced at Enter and saw that the other party was now his immediate superior. He immediately changed his attitude and told the current situation of the soldiers and horses.
"Five hundred cavalry, only five hundred cavalry?"
To be honest, Enter was only focused on entertaining the princes and ministers these days, and he didn't have a clear grasp of the troops and horses in the city. When he heard that there were only 500 cavalry in the huge Loubaisha, he was stunned.
"It is true that there are only so many, but these are just the cavalry in the military camp. There must be war horses in the houses of the ministers and princes and ministers. If the general needs it, he should be able to send some more."
Kansak was also depressed for a while. He only had such little strength, and these three hundred cavalry were regarded as treasures. Vesudeva I left in a hurry and basically took away everything he could. There was nothing he could do.
"Five hundred, let's go to five hundred. Immediately gather the troops and horses to follow me out of the city. I want to intercept those Chinese generals. In addition, you take my military orders to the mansions of the ministers and princes and ministers, and gather all their horses. In addition, the people who are good at horses
We must also charge them all into the army."
Now Enter couldn't care about anything else. There were only 500 cavalry among the tens of thousands of troops. He was also drunk, but the time was right. He also decided to lead his army to attack and snipe the opponent's general first.
"yes."
Soon the five hundred cavalry were ready, and Enter also got off the city wall and straddled the horse.
"Kaicheng, attack and capture them."
Lou Baisha's heavy city gate slowly opened, and Enter led five hundred cavalry directly out of the city gate, running wildly in the direction of Chao Huang Zhong.
"Um?
Is the city gate open?
No, it’s the enemy’s cavalry.”
Huang Zhong and the others were about to leave, but they saw the city gate of Loubaisha opened, and immediately understood that they must have been discovered by the Kushan people, and they were going to be beheaded.
"General Huang Zhong, you lead the people to retreat first, and I will lead my personal guards to stop them."
Xu Chu also saw the opponent's cavalry running out, and a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes. He asked Huang Zhong to leave, while he wanted to resist the opponent.
"If you want to go, let's go together and leave quickly."
At this time, we can't talk about heroism. They don't have many cavalry, and the only horses they have were captured from a caravan. There are only a few dozen cavalry. Now they have to fight the opponent's cavalry, which is obviously a soft attack.
"Yes, General, you retreat first and leave this place to me."
Huang Zhong's head of bodyguard Huang Chen took a look at the current situation and directly asked the other party to leave first, while he led his bodyguard to resist the other party's attack.
"General Xu Chu, leave quickly. You are the commander-in-chief of the Xiaohu Army. You must not be impulsive."
Zhou Yu also spoke to Xu Chu. Although he didn't know how many cavalry the other party had, since they dared to come out, they must be prepared to capture him. If he fought hard here, he would definitely suffer the loss.
"Huang Chen, I leave this to you. We must ensure the safety of the soldiers to the greatest extent."
Huang Zhong didn't care about anything else and directly rode away towards the camp.
"You guys go, I'm going to meet these Kushan barbarians first to see how much skill they have."
Xu Chu is a stubborn person. Except for Yuan Shu who can stop what he decides, it really doesn't matter to anyone else.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Chu had already galloped away from the formation and rushed towards Enter.
"General Xu Chu, I will accompany you on a journey to meet the Kushan cavalry."
Seeing how fierce Xu Chu was, Wei Yan was aroused to fight. He left Huang Zhong directly and followed Xu Chu to kill him.
"What's going on with these two people? They rush into battle now without risking their lives. General Huang Zhong must stop them."
Seeing Xu Chu and Wei Yan charging in the opposite direction, Zhou Yu was immediately stunned. Charging in this situation was really something only a fool could do, but this kind of thing was indeed the most likely to happen in the army. He really had no choice.
"Huang Min, you escort Staff Officer Zhou Yu back to the camp, and I'll stop them."
Huang Zhong nodded to Zhou Yu, then galloped towards Lou Baisha, following the two of them.
"Advisor Zhou Yu, let's go."
Huang Min didn't want to be the one rushing over now. It was exciting to think about it. It was so exciting to rush into the battle alone. Unfortunately, he could only send Zhou Yu back with difficulty now.
"Let's go."
Zhou Yu also knows the current situation. He also wants to be willful and impulsive, but his own conditions are really limited. Now he can only return to the camp obediently. Not adding burden to the other party is the best he can do now.
Excellent choice.
Huang Min led several scouts to escort Zhou Yu back to the camp. Guard captain Huang Chen led his guards to set up defenses while retreating. Only Huang Zhong, Xu Chu and Wei Yan were moving forward against the current.
"General Huang Zhong, why are you here too?"
Xu Chu was not surprised that Wei Yan followed him. After all, they were all brave men, but he was a little confused when a veteran like Huang Zhong followed him.
"Why, you are allowed to ride alone into the formation, but Huang Zhong and Lao Ji are not allowed to stand still. Stop talking nonsense and charge them first."
When Huang Zhong came over, he didn't intend to stop the two of them, because he knew that these two people were troublesome, and he couldn't stop them at all. Instead of doing this, he might as well join in, and he could help the two of them share the burden to some extent.
Also try how deep the water in Kushan Cavalry is.
"Haha, then let's compete to see who can kill more people. I must beat you two."
Hearing what Huang Zhong said, Xu Chu also laughed. A real man should carry a three-foot sword to achieve unparalleled achievements. This is the time for him to perform meritorious deeds. If he can ride more than a thousand people, come to Baisha Tower.
It's not all in vain.
"Then let's compete. Whoever loses will be treated to a drink."
Wei Yan also laughed and rode forward directly.
Huang Zhong didn't say anything from behind, but silently took off the war bow hanging on the horse's belly. Since he was going to compare, as the commander of the fifth army of Shesheng, if he lost to Wei Yan and Xu Chu, what would happen to his face?
I can't stand it either.
"General Enter, look, there are still people who dare to attack us?"
Seeing Huang Zhong, Xu Chu and Wei Yan riding towards him in a single formation, Kansak also saluted Enter directly.
"Chinese people have always been like this. They are brave and fearless. They are not afraid of life and death. If you fight with them for two more times, you will know. This is what we Kushan people lack. If possible, capture them and give them a way to survive.
Bar."
Enter also saw the three people going upstream. What he most admired and hoped for on his side was the Chinese people's quality of living toward death.
From his summary of past battles, the reason why he has been defeated by the Chinese is of course due to strategy and general trend, but also because of the quality of the Chinese soldiers.
Our own people cannot fight a tough battle or fight against a headwind, but the Chinese people are like chicken blood during the war. No matter whether it is a tailwind or a headwind, as long as the war starts, they dare to fight with their lives. Facing such an enemy, how can they
Maybe you can beat others.
"yes."
After hearing Enter's words, all the soldiers on the side nodded, and then continued to gallop towards the three of them.
With Enter's order, all these cavalrymen gave up their bows and arrows. Since they wanted to catch people alive, they naturally couldn't use bows and arrows. After all, these things were not controllable at all. But five hundred people faced three people, and they couldn't capture the opponent if they wanted to.
