Ruan Zhengyu nodded afterwards, thinking of the four elephant taming guards and the four horse leisure guards he had established over the years, he was also full of confidence.

What kind of troops are the four guards of the elephant and the four guards of the horse?

As the name suggests, the four elephant tamers are four war elephant-based troops, each of these four troops leads 200 war elephants, once these elephants are impacted, they are simply ancient tanks, which are indestructible.

Ruan Zhengyu relied on this army to fight in the south and the north, and the small countries in all directions were all beaten by him, but he did not meet an opponent for more than ten years.

The four guards are a rare cavalry unit in the south, with a total of 10,000 cavalry in each unit, and it is also a rare shock force in the southern countries.

For the sake of the four guards of the horse and the four guards of the elephant taming, Ruan Zhengyu spent almost half of their military expenses on the two troops.

And these two troops are also Ruan Zhengyu's trump cards, and it is easy not to use them, this time he wants to concentrate all these two troops, go north to compete with Jia Ke, and strive to break Jia Ke in one fell swoop, so that he is afraid and does not dare to look south.

Ruan Zhengyu made up his mind and immediately sent an order: "With the four guards of Shenwu, the six guards in front of the palace, the four guards of the elephant taming, and the four guards of Ma Xian as the central army, 150,000 soldiers are gathered in various places, and then they will meet in Thang Long Mansion, and the soldiers of our relatives will go north to fight with the Northern Dynasty." ”

These ministers below felt a little difficult to accept after listening to Ruan Zhengyu's order.

How much grain and grass do these hundreds of thousands of soldiers need? And Annan Elementary School, although it is said to be three crops a year, the oppression of the people by the nobles also exceeds that of the Celestial Empire.

Now, if so much grain and grass are collected, the people are afraid that they will make trouble.

But they looked at Ruan Zhengyu above, and they didn't dare to come out to stop it with firm eyes.

So under Ruan Zhengyu's order, the entire Annam took action, and two or three hundred thousand horses gathered in Thang Long Province.

Among them, there are 40,000 Shenwu four guards, 60,000 six guards in front of the palace, four elephant taming guards, four horse leisure guards, plus reinforcements from all over the country to attack 260,000 people.

And the grain and grass needed by these soldiers and horses are naturally raised from the people's families, and those princes and nobles will not take out their own family funds for Ruan Zhengyu to waste.

So the people of Annam complained, Ruan Zhengyu lived in the palace, and he couldn't hear this. When he saw that the army had been assembled, he did not delay, and immediately led the army north.

Knowing that Ruan Zhengyu had just stepped out of the gate of Thang Long City, he saw a person on the side of the road, wearing a hemp crown and a linen robe, holding an air merchant gang waiting for him there.

Ruan Zhengyu looked at it, and it turned out to be the Ruan Tiande who was driven out of the court by him.

When Ruan Zhengyu saw this situation, he knew that this Ruan Tiande was here to make himself unhappy.

So he ordered someone to bring Ruan Tiande to his horse and asked, "You don't retire in the city, what are you doing on the side of the road?" ”

Seeing Ruan Zhengyu kneeling on the ground, Ruan Tiande said with tears in his eyes: "The old minister asks the king to immediately suspend the war and surrender like the Central Plains Heavenly Dynasty, so as to protect the design of my Annan Kingdom and the mausoleum of my ancestors." ”

"Shut up, I've made it very clear to you in the court, I didn't expect you to dare to stir up trouble here, go back quickly, and you can save yourself, otherwise don't blame this king for being ruthless."

After Ruan Zhengyu said this, he ignored this Ruan Tiande and continued to urge the army to advance.

Ruan Tiande watched Ruan Zhengyu move forward with the soldiers, and couldn't help but cry: "The country of Annan is dead, ancestors and ancestors, open your eyes and take a look." ”

Ruan Zhengyu, who had already walked a long way, immediately became furious when he heard this.

"Come on, put this madman in prison for me, and then deal with it when I return victorious."

Ruan Zhengyu ordered all his life, and immediately a few soldiers came, tied up Ruan Tiande and sent him to a cell in the city.

After Ruan Zhengyu dealt with this matter, he was still upset, but he received a report that nearly 300,000 horses led by Jia Ke, the king of Yan of the Northern Dynasty, had come to the border and could attack the border city at any time.

Therefore, Ruan Zhengyu did not dare to slack off, and immediately urged the army to go to the border, and when he arrived at the border, Jia Ke had been waiting here for a long time.

Jia Ke knows the terrain of the south very well, the rainforest here is dense, humid and hot, if these people scatter into the dense forest and don't fight against themselves, it is really enough to drink a pot of their own.

So Jia Ke led 300,000 men and horses, amplified his momentum but acted slowly, just to let the king of Annam gather forces to fight against him, and then defeat him in one fell swoop, saving these people from fighting guerrilla warfare with him.

Ruan Zhengyu also responded to Jia Ke's idea, and came to the border with hundreds of thousands of horses, and then went to Jia Ke's camp ten miles away.

Jake was overjoyed when he received the news that the king of Annam had come with a large army.

Early the next morning, Jia Ke came to the camp of Annan with 50,000 horses to fight the enemy.

When Ruan Zhengyu, the king of Annam, heard that Jia Ke was coming to fight against the enemy, he did not show weakness, took the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and then went out of the camp with a full guard of honor.

Jia Ke looked at the opposite side in front of the formation, and saw that the gate of the camp of Annan Kingdom was opened, and the first to come out were 10,000 cavalry, these cavalry came to the front of the formation, ran in all directions, and suppressed the formation.

Jia Ke couldn't help but smile sarcastically when he saw these 10,000 cavalry showing off their might in front of the battle, these cavalry are also a force to be reckoned with in the south, but compared to the grassland warriors in the north brought by Jia Ke, these people are really not enough.

Tens of thousands of infantry poured out of the battalion, all of them in good health, but many of them were even naked, and even their weapons were not very complete. As for the armor, except for a few generals sitting on horses, almost no one wore armor.

Jia Ke snorted when he saw this, in ancient times, iron was the most important strategic material, even the annual output of iron in the Central Plains Celestial Dynasty was only 10 million catties, and according to the current measurement method, it was only five or six thousand tons, not to mention Annan.

However, Jia Ke frowned when he saw the last few hundred elephants coming out, but Jia Ke immediately relaxed again.

If he had been rushed by these elephant soldiers before, his own army formation might have been scattered, but since Jia Ke got the book on making weapons from Jia Mu, he began to make those war weapons according to the description in this book.

Among them, there are Zhuge repeater crossbows, divine arm crossbows, and the pinnacle of ancient weapons three-bow bed crossbow (eight-bull crossbow).

If the elephant soldiers on the opposite side dare to charge, they will immediately turn into a sieve in the face of the powerful crossbow arrows such as the three-bow bed crossbow.

And the king of Annam, Nguyen Zhengyu, was also in front of the battle, looking at Jia Ke's side.

Seeing this, Ruan Zhengyu's heart immediately became apprehensive, and he saw that the army directly opposite Jia Ke was straight one by one, like wooden stakes.

If it's just like this, it's just well-trained, and these people are wearing armor every drama, and they are elite divisions at first glance.

Ruan Zhengyu turned around, and then looked at these soldiers beside him, there were almost no armor, and some didn't even have clothes.

This made Ruan Zhengyu feel a shadow over his future.

Jia Ke saw that Annan had already lined up the big array, so he urged his horse forward, came to the front of the big array of Annan and shouted: "Jia Ke, the king of a certain Yan family, is also, let the lord of your family come to talk immediately." ”

Ruan Zhengyu did not show weakness when he heard Jia Ke's summons, so he wanted to lift the horse forward, but Li Guangqing next to him hurriedly stopped: "Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, and you can't get into danger." ”

Ruan Zhengyu couldn't help but be furious after hearing this, "The enemy commander will call for battle in front, if you are alone and cowardly, it will not only make the other party laugh, but also weaken our momentum." ”

So Ruan Zhengyu didn't listen to the dissuasion, and came to the front of the battle with a few generals.

This is also because Ruan Zhengyu doesn't know Jia Ke, if it is the great Khan of the Tatars, Arslen Khan, who meets Jia Ke in front of him and scolds, he will definitely not come out, but he knows how powerful Jia Ke is, once Jia Ke catches the opportunity, his life is in danger.

Jia Ke rode alone carrying Fang Tian's halberd, and saw a middle-aged man in a yellow robe coming out on the opposite side, followed by several generals with helmets and crowns, and knew that the lord of Annan on the opposite side had come out.

When Ruan Zhengyu was one or two hundred steps away from Jia Ke, he stopped his horse's hooves, and then pointed at Jia Ke with a horsewhip and said, "You are the Yan King of the Northern Dynasty?" ”

"Yes, it's Jia."

"I will not invade each other with you, how can I bring soldiers to invade my territory."

After listening to this, Jia Ke smiled coldly, and then said: "You are the vassal king of my dynasty Taizu, so you naturally want to respect the Central Plains Kingdom, why do you repeatedly send troops to invade?" ”

When Ruan Zhengyu heard Jia Ke ask, he also tore his face, and said directly: "Since ancient times, the strong have been kings, and the weak have been cowards. ”

After hearing that the lord of this small country was so ignorant of the heavens and the earth, and he didn't want to talk to him anymore, so he said: "That's it, see the high and low on the battlefield." ”

After Jia Ke finished speaking, he turned his horse back and wanted to return to his formation.

Who knew that there was a general who came with Ruan Zhengyu and dared to come to his own formation when he saw Jia Ke riding alone, thinking that this was a godsend.

So he didn't say hello to Ruan Zhengyu, urged the blue-maned beast under his crotch, and went straight to Jia Ke.

Jia Ke had just returned to the horse and walked for a long time, when he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a big man with an iron helmet on his head, an iron armor and a mace in his hand.

Jia Ke still doesn't know that the other party is coming to sneak attack, and wants to capture the thief and capture the king first.

Jia Ke pretended not to know the details, and when the other party was connecting the horse's head and tail with his horse, he suddenly pulled the fire dragon horse, which was a good horse of the horse, fast and agile, and immediately flashed to the side.

General Annan, who had caught up, had just raised his mace when he saw the opponent's horse, and suddenly jumped to the side, and the two sides immediately hit each other.

Jia Ke didn't give the other party any chance, Fang Tian's halberd fell from the sky, and he went straight to the opponent's head with a force splitting Huashan.

The Annan general didn't even have a chance to react, so he was split in half by Jia Ke's slanted shoulder strap, and even the war horse that sat down was chopped to death on the spot.

Jia Ke killed this sneak attack general, turned around and smiled at King Annan: "The barbarian small country doesn't know etiquette, only knows sneak attacks, and today I will ask you to steal chickens and rice." ”

Ruan Zhengyu originally saw that his generals went straight to Jia Ke's heart, and he still had some hopes to kill the opponent's main general at this moment, so that he could lay a big country when he returned to the north, but he knew that his generals would be killed by Jia Ke just as soon as he joined together.

Jia Ke is now laughing and scolding in front of the battle, where has Ruan Zhengyu been insulted for so many years in the southern and northern wars? Immediately, he said to the general beside him: "Chen Tai, you took this person's life and vented my anger." ”

Chen Tai is also a warrior in Annan, but just now he saw Jia Ke kill a general who is similar to himself in one round, and he is very worried now, but the king has made him disrespectful, so he can only slap the horse forward.

When Jia Ke saw that the other party had rushed out of another general, he wanted to raise Fang Tian's halberd again to meet him.

Who knew that at this time, a young general ran out of his formation, and this person was not someone else, it was Xiao Yue.

Xiao Yue has been very important to Jia Ke since he followed Jia Ke, and now he is now a general who commands 50,000 horses, but he has not followed Jia Ke to make any contributions, so he always feels inferior to others.

Xiao Yue came to Jia Ke's horse and said to Jia Ke: "Lord, kill chickens with a cattle slaughtering knife, don't work for the lord to go in person, it is enough to go in the end." ”
