Sergeant Registration:

"Jiangcheng Taishou sent someone to inform that the southwest had found the reincarnation thief, and asked us to meet the enemy quickly!"

Everyone in the room was so shocked that they couldn't speak, and Lan Ziyi felt a cramping pain in his stomach, and he was about to vomit.

The sergeant stood still and looked up at the generals in the room, at a loss.

After a long time, Wei Qionglou asked:

"How many thieves are there?"

The sergeant replied:

"There are a lot of thieves who come to say, and I can't tell how many."

Wei Qionglou gritted his teeth and scolded:

"Shit, shit!"

Then he said to the sergeant:

"You go out first."

The sergeant asked:

"Do you want to inform the brothers in the camp to prepare?"

Wei Qionglou thought for a while and said:

"Wait a minute."

Seeing this, the sergeant did not dare to continue to ask, and retreated with a fist.

Hearing the sergeant's footsteps walking away, Wei Qionglou said:

"Is there a thief's eyeliner near Jiangcheng? Isn't it necessary to kill us when we come here at this time? ”

桃淚虎 says:

"If there really is a thief, why wait until we come? Jiangcheng was also undefended, and took out the strength to fight Yiling to the east, and now Jiangcheng has already been defeated. ”

桃扵鹿 says:

"As far as I know, the reincarnation demon art is very widespread in the countryside, and there may be thieves in the surrounding villages."

魏qiong楼 says:

"In other words, the thieves know the current situation of our army?"

桃扵鹿 says:

"Unless there are thieves in the army, it can't be. In just two days, it was still raining heavily, and it was impossible to find out the military situation through the supply situation in and out of the barracks. “

桃淚虎 says:

"In that case, why are you attacking Jiangcheng now?"

Tao Zhulu was speechless when asked like this.

Wei Qionglou said at this time:

"Whether the thieves know it or not, our army is not suitable for attack. Although there are supplies of horses, most of my men are sick, and look at your guards, the horses can't get up. Besides, under the rain this way, all the horn bows with the belt were soaked in glue and could not be used. Why don't you get your bow back when you get the horses? “

Tao Zhulu replied:

"Although the imperial court prohibits crossbows and bows, and forbids armor and knives, what you want is thousands of bows! Our Lan family is in the business of selling horses, and we have hidden so many bows, and we have been sued by a high-level conspiracy. “

桃淚虎 says:

"Jiangcheng is empty, and not attacking now is equivalent to revealing the truth to the thieves. If the thieves are ruthless and take Jiangcheng, we will inevitably be punished for the crime of fearing the enemy! “

Wei Qionglou replied:

"So we should immediately enter Jiangcheng and defend it now. You have also seen the situation in the camp, the men are sleepy and the horses are tired, and there is no bow, and if they go out, they will be sent to death. “

桃扵鹿 says:

"Although Jiangcheng is not as good as the capital, it is also a big city, how can five thousand people defend it? What will we do if we go in and go outside the city? If the surrounding people rushed into the city, where would they find food to prepare for the city's defense? What's more, the Jihu battalion is cavalry, and fighting in the field is its forte. The thieves are all infantry, and they have attacked countless cities and villages along the way, so won't we attack the enemy's strength with our own shortcomings when we enter the city? ”

Wei Qionglou listened and said angrily:

"The brothers in the camp are not your brothers, of course you don't feel sorry if you die!"

Peach Tiger roared:

"After I came to the capital, I practiced riding horses with the soldiers in the battalion all day long, like brothers and sisters, what does it mean to die and not feel distressed?! We marched here in a hurry to kill the thieves, and now that the thieves are close at hand, you want to escape? ”

Wei Qionglou said angrily:

"When I take the whole battalion of brothers out to die, it is called heroic and good fighting? They are all dead, and Jiang Cheng will still be lost when the time comes! Can't you see what is going on? You Beizhen soldiers don't use their brains to fight? “

Tao Zhuhu and Wei Qionglou didn't speak after yelling at each other, and sat on the stool with their heads turned and gasped.

Seeing that no one in the room finally spoke, Lan Ziyi spoke:

"There are clouds in the art of war: the real is the virtual, and the virtual is the real. Our current situation is that we can't fight, we can't defend, we can't even escape. This rapid march has exhausted the vitality of our army, and now it is empty to death. “

魏qiong楼 says:

"Wei Hou, don't say that we all know it."

Lan Ziyi felt that his fever seemed to be better, and his body was also strong, so he got off the bed with the help of Tao Zhutu, stood on the ground and said:

"General Wei, I only ask you, since the main force of the thieves is still besieging Yiling, where do you think the people who are attacking Jiangcheng now come from?"

Wei Qionglou perked up when he heard this, and said:

"Wei Hou, what do you mean ......?"

兰子义 says:

"We are not false, and in my opinion the thieves are even more false! Why wait until the Beijing army arrives to fight Jiangcheng? Can't show what you can, that's all. ”

Wei Qionglou nodded, but after thinking about it, he pouted and said:

"Wei Hou has a point, but it's just speculation."

Lan Ziyi said while getting dressed with the help of Tao Zhutu:

"If General Wei is the leader of the thieves, and now there are 5,000 cavalry rushing to Jiangcheng, what do you think he is doing?"

Wei Qionglou replied:

"It must be the vanguard cavalry."

Lan Ziyi asked again:

"Then now that your main force is besieging Yiling, Jingzhou is empty, what are you going to do with these five thousand people? Let them pioneer to the city of Jingzhou? ”

Wei Qionglou suddenly realized when he heard this, and said:

"So the thieves take offense as defense, skillfully deploy suspicious soldiers, as long as we can be deployed outside Jiangcheng and wait for the main force to meet, they will win. We didn't garrison for one more day, so we gave the thieves an extra day to attack Yiling, and also gave the thieves in Jingzhou time to calmly transfer to Yiling. ”

兰子义 says:

"There is more rain near Jiangcheng than in the capital, and these hardcover Chinese characters in the camp are lying sick, I don't believe that the thief Kou is really a god descending from heaven and earth, and all poisons are inviolable!"

Wei Qionglou nodded vigorously, but still asked with a little weakness:

"What if Wei Hou miscalculates?"

At this time, Lan Ziyi had already dressed and signaled to Tao Zhutu to put on his armor.

桃追兔 says:

"Wei Hou, you are so sick, how can you go out?"

Lan Ziyi listened, turned his head to Wei Qionglou and said:

"We Beizhen soldiers just don't use their brains to fight! We're using our lives! Are you afraid of your brother's death? No problem, I'll lead my brother to die with you! ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was enthusiastic, and the peach and the tiger and the rabbit strode out of the house and returned to their own house to prepare.

Wei Qionglou stomped his feet when he listened, dispelled his doubts, and yelled outside the door:

"Command the whole army! Those who are not dead will be put on the horse with armor on my horse, dare to be one step late, and the military law will deal with it! ”

Lan Ziyi said while wearing a helmet:

"If you don't have it, you can go out in one breath, as long as you can scare the thieves back, you will win."

After a while, the whole battalion had been assembled, and although the soldiers were sallow-faced, they were victorious in high morale.

Lan Ziyi also felt a lot more relaxed when riding on the horse, although the rain was cold and seeping on his body, but this could not stop Lan Ziyi's determination.

After the order was given, except for a few soldiers guarding the camp, the whole army rode out of the camp.

When I went out, it was Shen Shi, although the dark clouds in the sky were still black and pressed on the head, but the rain had become smaller, only a few drops of sparse pulling were still falling, although the road was a little slippery, but it was still relatively porcelain, and the horse's hooves would not sink when stepping on it.

It seems that the omen is good.

The forbidden army camp where Lan Ziyi and the others were stationed was in the southwest of Jiangcheng, on the side of Da JX, which happened to be the direction of the thieves reported by Taishou.

Lan Ziyi and they have been walking along the road to Jingzhou City after they went out, there are mostly paddy fields and ponds on both sides of the road, such a heavy rain is pouring down, and there are no farmers busy in the fields.

After walking for half an hour, the scout in front came to report, and found that the thieves were also moving along this road to Jiangcheng, but after discovering the scout in front of the Jihu camp, they began to retreat.

Wei Qionglou asked the scouts, and it turned out that there were only 3,000 people who invaded the thieves, with ragged clothes, no armor, no bows and arrows, and most of them only had shuttle darts, not even knives.

桃追兔 says:

"As Wei Hou expected, the thief is really a strong outsider, and he has already fled when he sees our scout."

兰子义 says:

"It's hard to say now, our situation is not much better, as long as we can drive the other party back to Jingzhou."

魏qiong楼 says:

"According to the scout's report, in the case of thieves, we can take the lead and fight his mother."

兰子义 says:

"General Wei, don't be impulsive. As you can see, in addition to this road, there are paddy fields next to it, which are natural horse traps, and the cavalry rushing into them is a live target. We only need to drive the thieves back to Jingzhou and make them think that we have the intention to fight, and the Jingzhou thieves will naturally be in turmoil, and the resistance to our attack will be much smaller, and maybe we will be able to surrender without a fight. ”

Wei Qionglou said with a smile:

"In the end, he is a reader, and what he says is reasonable."

Then he ordered the sergeant to give an order, and the whole army was divided into three teams, and the knights on the newly transferred 2,000 horses were led by Tao Zhuhu, and walked behind as a reserve.

The other 2,000 people were divided into two teams, Wei Qionglou and Lan Ziyi led a team in front, Tao Zhulu and Tao Zhutu guarded Lan Ziyi around him, and the deputy general of the Jihu Battalion led a team in the middle.

The three groups of cavalry did not spread, but walked on the avenue in a marching formation, so as not to fall into the paddy fields on both sides of the road. Keep a proper distance between the team and the team's view, so as not to be unable to start after a battle.

Lan Ziyi and Wei Qionglou led the team forward for a while, and saw the loose team of thieves and Kou Song, without any ranks, and the pace was disordered, and at a glance they knew that it was improvised by some untrained peasants.

When the thieves saw the team of the Jihu Battalion, they were obviously flustered, and a man with a disheveled hair and colorful paint on his body did not listen to the beckoning thieves to speed up his pace.

The scout who was exploring the path just now said to Wei Qionglou;

"General, there is a bridge and a creek further ahead, the stream is not deep, even if it has rained heavily recently, people can wade through, but it will definitely take more effort to wade through. There is a bridge along the road, and after crossing the bridge, the road now turns east-west to the southwest, and there is a forest on the north side of the road, and the thieves are all infantry, and if we let them into the forest, we will not be able to do it. ”

Wei Qionglou nodded and said:

"Order the front team, speed up the pace, we must grab the bridge in our hands, and cut off their way before the thieves burrow into the woods, so that they can obediently return to Jingzhou City."
