Chapter 110: Dark Chess (3)

Thundered~

In the early morning of the second day, through the mist of the morning light, a black ironclad army passed through the mountains and forests with the sound of rumbling horses' hooves, and quickly appeared outside Chenjia Town.

This cavalry team totaled more than 2,000 people, and in the procession, Sima He Badu, the cavalry battalion, took the lead, followed by 1,000 cavalrymen in leather armor, and the remaining more than 1,100 mercenary knights fell at the end of the team, carrying a large number of ordnance, armor, grain and grass and other materials.

It was the 1,000 armored cavalry under his command that he commanded, because the armored cavalry was a heavy cavalry with men and horses, and the combined weight of the armor and horse armor was hundreds of kilograms, and special horses were needed to carry weapons and armor during the march.

Therefore, in this expedition and distribution, the 1,000 heavy cavalry led by the two brothers, He Bayun and He Basheng, only 500 mercenary knights were allocated, and He Baduba was divided into more than 1,000 mercenary knights.

This battle is only for a quick victory, and it is necessary to capture the three towns leading to Heyuan Town and Chenjia Town and Dutong Town along the way as quickly as possible, and the armor of 1,000 armored cavalry has always been separated from men and horses.

"Bell Bell Bell ~"

"Enemy attack!"

"I'm going to tell the town guard!"

When the army appeared less than three miles away from Chenjia Town, the huge sound of horses' hooves woke up the soldiers defending the city in Chenjia Town, and the captain of the team guarding the city quickly ordered someone to ring the alarm bell, and personally ran to the town guard mansion to report the news.

On the day Fangjia Town invaded north, although Chen Deming led his troops to block Fang Chenwen's attack, the defenders in the town suffered heavy losses, and nearly 1,000 soldiers only left less than 400 people.

Su Dingfang led his troops to defeat Fang Chenwen in one fell swoop, and after pacifying Fangjia Town, Chen Deming, like other towns in the south of Su County, quickly surrendered to Su Dingfang.

In order to stabilize the situation in Laisu County and prepare to fight against the Yangwu Army, Su Dingfang had no time to deal with the surrendered forces, and most of the surrendered generals still maintained their original positions.

Chen Deming, who originally occupied Chenjia Town, naturally maintained his original position and served as the town guard of Chenjia Town under the command of Su Dingfang's Tang Cavalry forces.

"Report! My lord, there is a large cavalry outside the city, and I am afraid that it is not good to come! ”

In the study room of the town guard's mansion, Chen Deming had already gotten up at dawn and was dealing with Chen Jiazhen's affairs in the case.

Chenjiazhen's surrender to Su Dingfang has only been here for a few days, after the war and the change of power, the order in the town has not yet been cleared up, these days Chen Deming is busy cleaning up the town's population household registration, as well as the dead soldiers and other related matters.

As the head of the Chen family of a small force, Chen Deming has his own self-knowledge in his heart, and with the strength of the Chen family and his talents, he can't be the head of the party at all.

The reason why Chenjiazhen was seized before was just to see the situation clearly and sell at a price.

Therefore, after taking refuge in Su Dingfang, Chen Deming also sincerely wanted to do something in Chenjiazhen.

However, Chen Deming's loyalty to the newly established Tang cavalry forces of Su Dingfang was shattered in this report.

"Pedal Pedal ~"

After receiving the personal report from the guards and the team leader, Chen Deming did not dare to delay, and immediately followed the direction of the city gate.

"Not good! It's the Yang Wu Army! ”

After boarding the city tower, looking at the banner waving in the distance and the surging iron cavalry army, Chen Deming's face changed suddenly, and he exclaimed, the word Yangwu engraved on the banner fluttering in the cavalry team below clearly indicated the identity of the incoming army.

Such a powerful cavalry appeared outside the city of Chenjiazhen, and even a fool knew that the situation was not good.

Chen Deming didn't think that with more than 200 people who were uneven in his hands, he would be able to resist the cavalry of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion below.

"Take him, open the gates, and surrender the city!"

After his expression changed several times, Chen Deming decisively ordered.

"Chen Zhenshou, how can you turn your back on us so easily!"

Deng Zhicai, a squad leader under the former command of Su Dingfang, has been promoted to the deputy colonel of Chenjia Town this time to assist Chen Deming in commanding 200 county soldiers in the town.

Looking at the soldiers defending the city who came decisively to his side under the command of Chen Deming, Deng Zhicai shouted angrily ahead of Chen Deming.

After all, the 200 county soldiers in the town were recruited on the basis of the remnants of the soldiers under the original Chen Deming, and Chen Deming could naturally easily command them, while Deng Zhicai was obviously still a little behind.

"It's not what I want, but the elite cavalry of the Yangwu army is under the city, and you think that with 200 soldiers in our city, you can resist them? Instead of using the mantis arm as a car, it is better to descend early, which can also save the people of Fangjia Town from a disaster! ”

A hint of apology flashed in Chen Deming's eyes, and he explained two sentences to Deng Zhicai and ordered someone to take him away.

"Chen Deming, Chenjia Town, is willing to lead the people to surrender to the general!"

When He Batduba led the magnificent army to the city of Chenjia Town, Chen Deming led the only remaining high-ranking cadres and sergeants in the town to wait outside the city gate, and submitted a letter to He Batduba to surrender.

"Good! Good! Good! “

He Baduba, who was stunned by this sudden good thing, only had time to praise again and again, he didn't expect to take Chenjiazhen so easily.

"Chen Deming is guarding, you continue to lead the troops to garrison Chenjia Town, and we continue to rush to the two towns of Dutong and Heyuan in front!"

After taking Chenjia Town, He Baduba did not stop, and directly continued to lead his troops out of the city to Heyuan Town in the north.

At the same time that his father He Batduba led the army to quickly break through Chenjia Town, the two brothers He Batyun and He Batsheng, who attacked from the east and west, also made progress quite smoothly, and successively took Fengtai and Jutong Towns.

For a time, in less than half a day, the three-way army was like three steel knives directly inserted into the heart of Su Dingfang's army, and the target was directly approaching Su Dingfang and others who were besieging Dengjiazhai.

In the territory, some of the forces in various towns that have just been put into service, under the strong soldiers of the Xiaocai Battalion, many people have also changed their colors, and began to secretly collude with the Yangwu Army to prepare a way back for themselves and their families.

With the three-way attack of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, the situation in the entire Laisu County has also become turbulent again.

"Pedal Pedal ~"

In the Dengjiazhai camp, Su Dingfang, the leader of the Tang cavalry forces in the Danfeng Field in the Chinese army camp, was convening the generals in the army to discuss how to solve the remaining Dengjiazhai people in Dengjiazhai at the lowest cost.

There was a rush of footsteps, and a pro-soldier scout rushed in.

"Report! Checkmate! Three Towns Urgent! ”

The herald ordered his soldiers to quickly hand over the urgent report in his hand to Su Dingfang who was on the scene, looking a little panicked.

"The three towns of Chenjia, Fengtai, and Jutong have fallen, and the enemy army is coming to the house in three ways, what are they doing with it? We have to make a decision sooner rather than later! ”

Unfolding the message in his hand, Chen Deming muttered in a shocked voice.

The three towns surrendered without a fight, and the prestige and combat power of the Yangwu army can be imagined.

At present, the final general attack on Dengjiazhai is about to be launched, but I didn't expect the Yangwu army to come to this point, which really grabbed their weakness.

For a while, Su Dingfang's heart was also hesitating whether to continue to encircle and annihilate Dengjiazhai or recover the land of the three towns.

Yesterday, the news that the cavalry of the Yangwu Army might sneak into the territory had just arrived, but this morning, the enemy army had already entered the central part of the territory and connected the three towns.

The enemy army is advancing too fast! Su Dingfang sighed in his heart!
