Chapter 269: Blitzkrieg - Decisive Battle at the Top of the Golden City

Just when the Dong brothers were actively preparing for war, another army also slowly began to act, they came from the distant Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, bid farewell to the vast Dafei River and Qinghai Lake, along the stream at the source of the Yellow River, swaying to Longxi County under the mountain, for their group of people, this road is really unfamiliar, due to the relatively backward productivity, the local natives do not have enough ability to go far away, so there are very few people who can guide them.

Therefore, Xue Rengui could only reconnoiter while walking, trying not to delay the task assigned to them by Suning, but in Suning's original plan, they were originally the last to appear.

Earlier than them, it should be the first column led by General Arnold, including Hou Cheng, who had followed Suning's expedition to the east and west, and now they are regarded as the absolute main force under Suning, and they are used on the frontal battlefield, but I don't know what kind of wonderful performance they will dedicate to the entire Liangzhou in this battle.

The two brothers of the Song family didn't know that at this time, some people had already used them as background boards for wonderful performances. They were still actively preparing for the war, and in three days' time, they would go to Geumseong-gun, through which they would go straight to Hanyang-gun.

I heard that Longxi County and Hanyang County also have a junction, but the two sides have been facing each other for many years, and Suning has always been good at building fortresses, if they attack from the front, they will not achieve any excellent results, so the two brothers still think that they should adhere to the strategy of retreating back then, starting from Jinchengyun, the so-called get up from where they fall, if they don't outflank them, they may run into a nose under Suning's iron walls. What they want to do most now is the shame of Yixue, how could they waste the troops they had worked so hard to accumulate on the fierce battle on the frontal battlefield.

However, they didn't know that Song Ning had already sent his most elite first column out of the northwest side of Hanyang County, and then south to Jincheng County, preparing to attack Longxi County, where they were located, after crossing the Yellow River.

The first column marched very fast, and although most of them were infantrymen, the physical strength they had accumulated back then was still showing effect today, and they had not stopped training over the years. And at each military exercise, they were able to show the results of their years of training to the brother troops, and later, because they ran fast on their legs, and sometimes even caught up with the speed of cavalry, they were caricatured as running on two legs out of four, but they were content and embroidered the portrait of Hermes on their flags at the suggestion of some Roman soldiers in the squadron.

This time, the speed of their march was still not lost, and their characteristics, it only took two or three days for them to make a big circle from Hanyang County and came directly to the bank of the Yellow River.

After the simple pontoon bridge was built, they were ready to cross the river and go south, but at this time, there were several scouts shouting in the distance, and everyone looked at them with some confusion, but they soon learned from their next words that it was inevitable that there would be an army, numbering no less than 50,000 people, and the number of cavalry teams that opened the way was quite large, and they looked menacing. At this time, they remembered that the purpose of their southward trip this time seemed to be to eliminate Long Xijun's Song family, and the order given to them from above clearly required that they should try their best to make a great deal of momentum to cover the friendly forces attacking Longxi County from the east and west.

In other words, if they don't encounter the enemy's obstruction on the road, they have to take the initiative to expose their existence, instead of quietly touching the enemy's nose and giving the enemy the most painful blow as originally thought, but this is fine, at least they no longer need to worry about their whereabouts being exposed, after all, there are a lot of people in their group, and it is actually very difficult not to be discovered by the enemy.

However, under the new plan, in order to make a show of their own momentum, and in order to ensure that victory came earlier, they were equipped with some new weapons as a last resort, although their infantry obviously had some obvious rejection of these new things, and now it was the soldiers who learned from the officers that these things need to be cared for like treasures on the road, and must not be exposed to the wind and rain, and they began to complain even more dissatisfied, are these weapons more delicate than their soldiers? Then again, since ancient times, what kind of weapons have not been made of copper and iron, and their hardness is actually comparable to that of fragile humans, and I can't imagine that this thing is even more squeamish than humans, how can this kind of thing kill the enemy on the battlefield? However, when the 500 soldiers were uneasy, a secret rumor began to circulate among them, and several Pangu disciples suddenly remembered one thing, saying that when the lord was fighting against the enemy on the grassland of Beidi County, he had used a very powerful weapon, and later General Zhao had also used a similar magic weapon near Liangzhou City, but he didn't know what it was at the time, and now it seems that it is probably this thing in their hands.

This statement made most of them excited, and it was still their dream to be able to use what the Lord Gong and General Zhao had used back then, however, the enemy army obviously did not know much about their situation, and when the two sides first encountered, the enemy army swarmed and launched a crowd tactic, hoping to use the numerical superiority to defeat them on the spot.

However, just as they rushed up, a light smoke began to rise in the first column, and Ji'er, one by one, yellow packages, as if they had been thrown by something, flew towards them in a round circle, the soldiers of the Song family had obviously not seen this kind of thing, they thought that this was some kind of treasure, something that the enemy had thrown over to bribe them out of fear, however, when those things flew in front of their eyes, a feeling of uneasiness began to spread in their hearts.

Knowing that Suosuo's voice came from nowhere, they watched it for a long time and did not come to a conclusion. Just when they wanted to ask some well-informed officers, a violent sound instantly resounded in the surrounding fields, and when the two brothers of the Song family did not hear this sound, they came to the Heavenly King on the battlefield in the distance in horror, only to see puffs of smoke rising from the ground, and their soldiers had already fallen in pieces.
