Chapter 755: Levy

Seeing that several of his henchmen agreed to the strategy of feintting to attack Tiecheng and sneak attack on Zhangjiabao, Zhao Hu nodded lightly, agreed to Zhao Tian and Zao Wouji's attack plan, and carried out more detailed research and planning on the plan of the two.

In the end, Zhao Hu decided to personally lead 5,000 guards to make a detour to attack Zhangjiabao, Zhao Wuji was the commander of the attack on Tiecheng, responsible for the attack on Tiecheng, Zhao Tian and Zhao Yi assisted, and Zhao Zhong and Zhao Xin stayed in Zhaojiabao, and Yu Ziming was responsible for maintaining law and order in Zhaojiabao to prevent someone from taking advantage of the Zhaojiapu army to go out on the expedition in Zhaojiapu.

After Zhao Hu announced his decision, except for Yu Ziming who was left by Zhao Hu, Zhao Zhong, Zhao Yi and others left one after another, dispatched troops, straightened out grain and grass, and made the final preparations before the expedition.

Looking at Yu Ziming, who had a calm face, Zhao Hu pondered for a while, and said softly: "Ziming, what do you think are the chances of our Zhaojiabao winning this battle?" ”

"One hundred percent!" Yu Ziming said with a look of affirmation.

"I think so too, do you know our next plan for Zhaojiabao, and the next goal?" Looking at Yu Ziming with a look of affirmation, Zhao Hu's face showed a smile and said lightly.

"I don't know, but I can guess a little, the young master's next goal should be to unify the chaotic land!" Looking at Zhao Hu with a smile on his face, Yu Ziming hesitated for a moment and said, Wan Jianfeng, the Land of the Ancestral Wolf, and Ross City, the three of them are all great forces that have experienced hundreds of years, and their strong strength has already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, Yu Ziming does not think that Zhao Hu can destroy them to unify the chaotic land.

"Well, our next goal of Zhaojiabao is indeed to unify the land of chaos, and the next step is to enter the Qinglong Continent." Looking at Yu Ziming, who didn't quite believe him, Zhao Hu nodded lightly.

"Young Master, Wan Jianfeng, the land of the ancestral wolf, and Ross City are all great forces that have been around for hundreds of years, and they have unfathomable heritage, it is said that there are strong martial kings, and you want to unify the land of chaos, isn't it a little 、、、" Looking at Zhao Hu with a confident face, Yu Ziming hesitated a little.

"Hehe, Ziming, you have to believe me, the strength of our Zhaojiabao is not as simple as you see, even if the Martial King is strong, he is just one person, can he resist thousands of troops?" Seeing Yu Ziming's expression of wanting to speak and stopping, Zhao Hu chuckled.

After speaking, Zhao Hu waved his hand and asked Yu Ziming to leave the study. He revealed to Yu Ziming that his next goal and ambition had been achieved, as for whether he believed it or not, Zhao Hu didn't care, because facts speak louder than words, and when he completed his goal, Yu Ziming would believe it, so he honestly followed his side and became a sword in his hand.

In the early morning of the second day, the 100,000 Guards Army, the 300,000 First Army Corps, and the 5,000 Guards Army, under the command of Zao Wou-Ki, set off from Zhaojiabao and galloped towards the direction of the Iron City.

At the same time, Zhao Hu personally led 5,000 guards, after the sky was dark, with the help of the cover of night, bypassing the ears and eyes of the God of War Temple, and quietly sneaking towards the hinterland of the God of War Temple.

After receiving the news that Zhaojiabao sent 400,000 troops to attack Tiecheng, Zhang Dafa, the guard officer of Tiecheng, immediately urgently mobilized the army of Tiecheng, defended it tightly, and personally walked on the city wall to watch the situation of Zhaojiabao's army under the city.

Three days later, the 50,000 cavalry of Zhaojiabao, under the command of Zhao Yi, took the lead in arriving at the foot of Tiecheng City, set up camp, and quietly waited for the arrival of the rear army.

Looking at the 50,000 cavalry outside the city, they began to set up camp, and above the city wall, a big man wearing chain mail and holding a sharp sword said to Zhang Dafa, the guard officer of the iron city beside him: "My lord, should we take advantage of the fact that the cavalry of Zhaojiabao has just arrived and is tired, and launch an attack on it, weaken the soldiers of Zhaojiabao and boost the morale of our own soldiers." ”

"No, our task is to guard the Iron City, not let Zhaojiabao capture the Iron City, and open the door to attack the hinterland behind our God of War Temple, everything else is not in our consideration, and it is absolutely impossible to take the initiative to attack, who knows if the tired posture of the 50,000 cavalry is pretended.

Even if their tiredness is not pretended, going out of the city to fight with the opponent's cavalry is also a great attrition for our army in Tiecheng, it is far better to use the defensive measures on the iron city to resist the attack of the army of Zhaojiabao, and treat the army of Zhaojiabao as a mill of flesh and blood, if the army of Zhaojiabao dares to storm the iron city, it will have to pay enough price. Zhang Dafa looked at the 50,000 cavalry of Zhaojiabao who were camping in the distance, and said in a firm tone.

Zhang Dafa is the cousin of the God of War Temple, with the strength of a nine-star swordsman, cautious, steady, not good at great success, and is a good hand at defending the city, therefore, he was appointed by Zhang Kai as the guard officer of the Iron City.

Zhang Kai's requirements for it, there is only one, that is, to defend the iron city, not to go out of the city and fight with the army of Zhaojiabao, only relying on the advantages of the city wall of the iron city, the army of Zhaojiabao is blocked from the iron city, and when Zhaojiabao can not be attacked for a long time, the army of Zhaojiabao will retreat, and there is no need for them to go out of the city to fight, consuming unnecessary troops.

Seeing Zhang Dafa's attitude of sticking to the city, the big man wearing chain mail and holding a sharp sword stopped talking, he was just an adjutant of the defenders of the Iron City, and was restrained by Zhang Dafa, Zhang Dafa did not agree with him to go out of the city to attack the 50,000 cavalry of Zhaojiabao outside the city, and he had to dispel the attention of the sneak attack, standing quietly behind Zhang Dafa, looking at the 50,000 cavalry encamped in the distance.

Seeing that the army of Tiecheng did not have the slightest intention of sneaking out of the city to attack him, Zhao Yi, who was already ready for battle, couldn't help but show a look of disappointment, and began to honestly set up camp and arrange defense facilities.

And Zhang Dafa, who was standing above the city wall, saw that the 50,000 cavalry of Zhaojiabao, who was originally lazy and tired, suddenly became vigorous, quickly set up camp, and arranged defensive facilities outside the camp, and involuntarily whispered to himself: "As I expected, the army of Zhaojiabao wants to lure my army of Tiecheng out of the city and fight with its cavalry. ”

Hearing Zhang Dafa's words, after seeing the changes in the 50,000 troops of Zhaojiabao under the city, the adjutant of Tiecheng felt a pang in his heart, and secretly said that it was dangerous.

After another three days, Zao Wou-Ki led 350,000 infantry and slowly rushed to the city of Tiecheng, stationed in the camp built by Zhao Yi, and immediately summoned commanders at all levels to his Chinese army tent for a pre-battle meeting to arrange the task of attacking Tiecheng.

In the early morning of the second day, the war drums sounded, and a soldier named Zhaojiabao came out of the camp and formed a phalanx of 10,000 people outside the iron city, forming 39 phalanxes, and the sound of the war drums resounding through the world slowly stopped.

Zhao Wouji, who was in the big tent of the Chinese army, nodded lightly at Zhao Tian after the army of Zhaojiabao formed a formation, and saw Zhao Tian jumping on a horse, galloping towards the city wall of the iron city, and stopped at a stone's throw away from the city wall of the iron city, raised his head and shouted loudly in the direction of the iron city: "The guards of the iron city, you all listen to me, your God of War Temple assassinated our castle lord of Zhaojiabao, our castle lord was very angry, and specially raised 400,000 troops, captured and opened, in order to avenge the assassination."

And you are all innocent people, immediately open the city gate, let our Zhaojiabao army pass, we will definitely not hurt your innocent people, we have only one goal, that is, Zhangkai, as long as we capture Zhangkai, our Zhaojiabao army will immediately withdraw from the scope of the God of War Temple.

If you don't want to be in the same stream with the thief of Zhang Kai, open the city gate and let our army of Zhaojiabao pass, otherwise, we will be regarded as Zhang Kai's fellow bandits and launch a fierce blow to you, at that time, you don't blame our army of Zhaojiabao for being polite, after the siege of the city, either you die or I die! ”

Zhao Tian summoned up the spiritual power in his body when he spoke, so that his voice could be transmitted several miles away, and it could clearly reach the ears of the defenders of the Iron City, causing a riot in the defenders of the Iron City.

The assassination of Zhao Hu in the Temple of the God of War was a disgraceful thing, and in order to retaliate, Zhao Hu sent troops to attack the Temple of the God of War, and it was reasonable to capture Zhang Kai, so the defenders of Tiecheng did not have much resentment towards Zhaojiabao for sending troops to attack Tiecheng, but they felt that it was not worth fighting with Zhaojiabao's army for Zhang Kai.

Zhang Dafa, who was standing on the city wall, heard Zhao Tian's words, and then heard the small muttering of the soldiers on the city wall, and immediately knew that he couldn't let Zhao Tian continue, so he casually took a bow and arrow from a nearby city defender, aimed at Zhao Tian, and shot over, and suddenly, he only saw the bowstring like a full moon, and a sharp arrow shot towards Zhao Tian's body like lightning.

Just when the sharp arrow was about to fall on Zhao Tian's body, Zhao Tian, who was riding on the horse, flashed a trace of coldness in his eyes, and with a slight wave of the long sword in his hand, he knocked down the arrow that was shot at him, and shouted loudly in the direction of Tiecheng: "Is this the answer that your Tiecheng gave us Zhaojiabao?" ”

Seeing Zhao Tian easily shoot down the arrows he shot, after hearing his shouting words, Zhang Dafa, who was standing on the city wall, immediately said loudly: "This is the attitude of our Iron City, if you want to fight, I will fight, don't say those nonsense that is not nutritious!" ”

After speaking, Zhang Dafa shouted to the defenders on the city wall: "Release the arrow!" ”
