Chapter 341: The Artillery Is Captured



Li Kui, Bao Xu and others, because they were not afraid of death, dared to take a hot air balloon into the air, made great achievements, became the focus of the wine field, and took turns to drink with everyone. After a celebration banquet, Li Kui and Bao Xu drank and let the soldiers carry them down, and Yuan Lang and Liu Tang were also drunk. Lu Fang and Guo Sheng only drank a little because they took turns on duty. These days are really tired, the soldiers who are not on duty are drunk, and they sleep messily in the field.

In the first half of the night, nothing happened, and just after the end of the night, a bloodied outpost soldier came on horseback to report that the No. 28 outpost in the northeast and northeast direction had been attacked, and the black wolf rode hundreds. After saying that, the soldier died, and he was hit by four black werewolf feather arrows, and he didn't know how to hold on, and he didn't die until the end of the letter, which was completely an idea.

There are really not many soldiers who have not drunk high, just the two thousand cavalry under the jurisdiction of Lu Fang Guo Sheng, and one hundred Chao Gai's own soldiers.

Chao Gai arranged for Liu Tang, Yuye, Yuan Lang, Pang Wanchun and other generals to guard the camp, and took Lu Fang Guo Sheng, a total of 2,100 cavalry, to the No. 28 outpost in the northeast in the dark.

Heilong Island is a vast land, not a small island like New Jeju, the camp is more than fifty miles away from the outpost, and the army marches all the way, and when it is an hour later, the outpost becomes a scorched earth.

The battle here was fierce, with the outpost as the center, and there were more than a dozen black wolf riders lying in all directions, some of the black wolf riders were killed by the lying bull cannon, and some were killed by bows and arrows. The black werewolf slammed open the door and eventually killed him. None of the thirty soldiers survived.

Chao Gai checked the situation of the fallen soldiers, his face was gloomy, and he said anxiously: "The two lying cow cannons are lost." ”

Chao Gai was surprised: "The black werewolf is barbaric and backward, and he can't even master the iron weapon, what are you doing with the Sleeping Cow Cannon, you must not lose it, chase it." ”

Chao Gai was also really angry, and just after winning the battle, he wanted to take it easy and let the black werewolf sneak attack an outpost and snatch two cannons. Chao Gai was worried that this group of black werewolves would imitate it if they took the artillery, and then they would not be facing barbarian cavalry who could only ride and slash and kill.

Judging from the traces left at the scene, there are at least seven or eight hundred war horses, and the black werewolf is generally used to bring two war horses, which means that this group of people is at most three or four hundred people.

Chao Gai led the team all the way to the north, galloping all the way, and when the morning dawned, he had already chased out more than a hundred miles.

"Rest in place." Chao Gai arranged for the army to rest in place. The centaurs are tired and need to eat and drink to regain their strength.

Chao Gai was on duty with Jiao Ting, Luo Yun and his own soldiers, and on the eastern horizon, a round of red sun erupted from the sea of clouds, and the sunrise on Black Dragon Island was so beautiful.

Chao Gai is full of energy and does not show any fatigue.

At this time, the forward sentinel cavalry came back and reported: "Ten miles ahead, a group of cavalry was found, about 300 people. ”

"But the black werewolf?" Chao Gai asked.

"It's far away, and I can't really see it. The sentinel is still watching. ”

Chao Gai said: "Lu Fang, you lead a thousand people to stay and restore their horsepower, and I will take Guo Sheng to pursue and keep in touch at any time." ”

Lu Fang said, "Yes." ”

Immediately, Chao Gai rushed over with more than 1,000 cavalry from Guo Sheng's department. After a short rest just now, the horse's strength was restored. Ten miles is just a blink of an eye.

It is said that these more than 300 people are the black werewolves who escaped from the war, and the leader is none other than Hallehu.

Yesterday's battle, the black werewolf was playing ball, and Hallehu understood that even if he returned to the black werewolf's own territory, it would be difficult to gain a foothold, and those tribes that had been oppressed by the black werewolf would not let the black werewolf go because of the decline of the black werewolf, they would only take advantage of the fire to rob.

The black werewolf has no way out, so Halehu decided to surrender to the Black Dragon City Lord, this Xiao City Lord is said to be a descendant of the Great Liao royal family, with five or six thousand elite soldiers, a city, four or five fortresses, and relatively strong strength.

As soon as Halehu thought that he might not be taken seriously in the past with such a small number of soldiers, that is, he should be a petty officer, and if he wanted to be valued, he had to make meritorious contributions, so Halehu thought of the cannon, and got a sample of the cannon and sent it back to the city lord of Black Dragon City, so that he could get attention.

Just do it, Halle Tiger is really bold enough, sneaking back and sneaking back, raiding a sentry post in the middle of the night, but what I didn't expect was that this outpost was very alert, and as soon as the black werewolf came, they found out. The sneak attack turned into a strong attack, the black wolf was overwhelming, and there was no dangerous terrain to defend this outpost, and more than 60 black wolf riders were eliminated under the death battle, and the thirty soldiers guarding the outpost were all killed.

When Halehu looked south, a large group of cavalry, it seemed that there were at least two thousand people, waving flags and roaring horns.

"Withdraw, don't engage in battle." As soon as the whistle sounded, Hallehu fled north with his soldiers, he did not intend to engage in battle, and he did not have the strength to do so. Less than 400 cavalry entangled 2,000 cavalry had only a dead end, and the numerical superiority would make up for the disadvantage in quality.

One chases in front and one runs behind. The horses on both sides were the same, they were tired all night, but the black werewolf had spare horses, so the speed was slightly faster.

The cavalry desperately urged the horses, but they couldn't catch up, and they always maintained a distance of nearly two miles.

Chao Gai said, "You follow behind, and I will go up and grab the cannon back first." ”

"Brother be careful, don't get entangled with the black werewolf." Jiao Ting shouted.

Chao Gai's dark clouds stepped on the snow, it was a BMW that was one in a million, and it accelerated like black lightning and rushed forward, and in a few minutes, the distance was shortened to about 200 meters. Chao Gai bowed and arrows in his hand, wolf tooth arrows swished, four arrows in succession, and four black wolves rode off their horses. shot over more than a dozen black werewolves one after another, and the black wolf ** was shocked, "That archer is here again, run." ”

Originally, it was a defeated army, and the morale was relatively low, but now when I heard that there were sharpshooters coming, there were still people who dared to fight, and those who fled faster than rabbits.

Halehu saw sweat on his forehead, and this pursuit was more than ten miles, and it seemed that he was chasing to death.

"Leave the cannon for them, leave the cannon alone." Hallehu shouted.

The two black wolves rode down the two horses carrying the cannons, and Chao Gai found the cannons, and stopped fighting anymore, stopping the horses.

Jiao Ting, Luo Yun, Guo Sheng and others led 1,100 cavalry to catch up, Chao Gai said: "They gave up the artillery, don't chase it, they marched in a hurry all night, and the horsepower ran out." ”

The cavalry rested in place, and Lu Fangbu slowly followed, resting here for a long time, and the war horses ate grass and drank water to recover their strength. It wasn't until lunchtime that Liu Tang and Yuan Lang came up with two thousand cavalry.

Liu Tang Yuan Lang said ashamedly: "I also ask my brother to punish him, he drank too much and made a mistake last night." ”

Chao Gai said: "It was me who ordered the celebration yesterday, if it wasn't for Cui Ye's reminder, I'm afraid I would have been drunk, and the idea of fighting smoothly in this interrupted time is a little contemptuous, and the mistake is mine." ”

Liu Tang was very moved, and Chao Gai dared to admit his mistake. Liu Tang said: "Cui Ye, Li Kui and others led the infantry to stick to the camp. Pang Wanchun led 500 cavalry archers to check on the tribes, and Yuan Lang and I came to support. ”

"Well, you arranged it well, the two of you came in time, the black werewolf fled north, let's hurry up and pursue." Chao Gai said.

The army was marching out, and more than 4,000 cavalry marched to the north, and after more than ten miles, the sentry in front came to report: "There is a fortress in front, one hundred and fifty meters long and wide, and it seems that hundreds of infantry are stationed. ”

"Oh, there's a fortress, let's go check it out." Chao Gai said.

The army rested in place, Chao Gai, Liu Tang, Yuan Lang, and Yan Kuohai, and a group of several people went to watch. The fort looks like it was built for a long time, and the stone walls are as high as six meters. In these years, such a high wall has to use a ladder, which belongs to a high wall, and there are battlements and arrow holes on the wall, and flags of various colors are inserted, and soldiers are on guard with bows and arrows.

Chao Gai said: "Yan Kuohai, what is this place called?" ”

Yan Kuohai said: "I came to explore some time ago, it is called Zhennan Fort, it is the auxiliary city of Black Dragon City, this fortress is actually a small town store, there are dozens of merchants and inns in it, and hundreds of soldiers are stationed, we didn't hear how much we didn't hear at the time." The city defense facilities are very good, and the battle is good. ”

Chao Gai nodded frequently, Yan Kuohai is not a professional scout, it is good to be able to scout like this.

Liu Tang said: "This fortress is also a enlarged outpost, and it is very fiercely defended, if the opponent does not have heavy weapons, six hundred infantry can resist the attack of more than a thousand people." For example, now, it is not easy for our 4,000 army to attack this fortress. ”

Chao Gai said: "It seems that the Liao State has worked Heilong Island, this fortress is indeed strong, if there are more soldiers, and then equipped with artillery and giant crossbows, it will be completely impregnable." It's just that it's different when we meet us, our artillery can raze them in an instant. ”

Liu Tang said: "I'm in a hurry, I didn't bring artillery, this is not easy to do, let's wait for Cui Ye to go north." ”

"Okay, herald, immediately transfer Cui Ye to lead his troops to come with a hundred tiger squat cannons." Chao Gai gave the order.

"Yes." The herald went back to give the order.

Yuan Lang said: "Let's kill the past in one go and take the entire Black Dragon Island." ”

"That's more risky, we don't know the strength of the Black Dragon City Lord, not to mention that we have just arrived at the Fierce Bull Grassland, and we haven't fully mastered it yet, so it takes time to digest it. Let's fight here for the time being, take this fortress, and wait for the counterattack of Black Dragon City, when the time comes, it will depend on the situation. Chao Gai said.

Looking at the fortress, who knew that the war drums of Zhennan Fort roared, the city gate opened, and fifty or sixty cavalry were divided, and the goose wings were opened, and the first general rode a red horse and held a big sword, majestic.

He shouted: "Who dares to come and peep into the city, and he will not get off his horse and die." Chao Gai and the others looked at each other, what is the situation, the small city of the projectile saw that thousands of troops were coming, and they got to defend the city, and they came out to challenge.
