On the march for one day, Bai Xi led more than 700 soldiers under his command, and he was always in front of the large army thirty miles away. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

I have to say that the prestige of the Red Turban Army has indeed been high these days. Not to mention anything else, just today, when the archers of the inspection department of various towns and villages in Yuzhou saw the banner of the Red Turban Army that Bai Xihe had raised, none of them dared to stop it, and they could all be said to flee in despair.

However, for such a "bad phenomenon", Bai Xi was not too anxious to get angry. Because, such a scene Bai Xi had actually expected it a long time ago. Don't forget, although Bai Xi is only a pioneer officer this time, there are seven or eight hundred soldiers under his command.

In the face of such a force, how could the inspection department of those townships dare to touch his tiger whiskers.

But Bai Xi is not in a hurry, in fact, it is not only that he expected this scene, but the more important reason is that the time has not come.

Yes, the hour has not yet come. If you think about it, you will know that Fangcheng is the north gate of Nanyang, and it is the seat of Yuzhou, whether it is geographical location or political reasons, Fangcheng is a very important city.

Therefore, for such an important city, it is impossible for Nanyang Prefecture not to pay attention to it.

Therefore, Bai Xi expected that the officials of Nanyang Mansion and Yuzhou must have assembled a large army in the Fangcheng area. After all, it has been almost a month since his family came to Nanyang, and with such pressure, it is impossible for the officials of Fangcheng not to recruit people for defense.

And as long as they recruit the men and horses to defend, then tomorrow, it will be impossible for them to let their side easily lead their troops to Fangcheng.

After all, the place of Fangcheng is nothing more than a county seat. With a single county town, it is simply impossible to resist the attack of nearly 3,000 men and horses on their side.

Therefore, in addition to Fang Cheng, the place they focused on defending must be the security station in the northwest of Fang City.

If Fangcheng is the north gate of Nanyang, then the security station is the gateway to Fangcheng.

As mentioned earlier, Fangcheng is a city built on the back of Fangcheng, and its north is Fangcheng Mountain, although Fangcheng Mountain is not a big mountain. However, this mountain undoubtedly formed a natural barrier during the war, protecting the northern part of Fangcheng.

Therefore, Zhang Shihua and the others could only take a detour if they wanted to attack Fangcheng. And in this way, the security station naturally became the only way for Zhang Shihua and them to attack Fangcheng.

Therefore, as long as the generals on the Tartar side are not stupid, they will definitely focus on the security station.

And now, Bai Xihe is very close to the security station, almost thirty or forty miles away. So, tomorrow at noon, Bai Xi will definitely be able to arrive at the security station.

And tomorrow evening, Zhang Shihua and his large army are expected to arrive at the security station. In this way, Bai Xi undoubtedly has a time difference of half a day. In other words, whether Bai Xi can complete his pioneer task well this time depends on whether Bai Xi can take the security station in half a day tomorrow.

……

Early the next morning, as a pioneer officer, Bai Xi hurriedly let his soldiers finish breakfast.

Then, after reporting the news to the rear brigade as usual that "there is nothing to do", Bai Xi led his soldiers and rushed straight to the security station thirty or forty miles away.

"Hurry, hurry, speed up the march. Everyone, after an hour and a half, be sure to get me to the security station. In the team, Bai Xi, who was riding forward, was surrounded by the guards and soldiers, and he couldn't stop urging so loudly.

After all, if he dared to hit the security station earlier, Bai Xi would naturally be more sure, and in such a situation, Bai Xi would not be in a hurry.

I have to say that after devoting themselves to Zhang Shihua's command and going through Zhang Shihua's special training, the soldiers under Bai Xi's command have indeed grown a lot.

Although it is said that these soldiers cannot be compared with the backbone team under the command of Zhao Jiu and Guo Yu and others. However, under Zhang Shihua's strict military regulations and super-intensive training, these soldiers under Bai Xi's command have at least one soldier.

Therefore, when Bai Xi asked his soldiers to speed up the march, these guys did not embarrass Bai Xi, that is, after an hour, they rushed to the northwest of the security station ten miles away.

And at this scene, Bai Xi couldn't help but nod with satisfaction, because in this way, the soldiers under his command undoubtedly bought him half an hour of siege time.

"Give the order to go down, rest in place, and after a quarter of an hour, march again." Looking at the soldiers under his command, some of his faces were already tired, and considering that there was still a war to fight later, Bai Xi couldn't help but give an order to his subordinates like this.

"The general has an order, rest in place." A hundred household officers and platoon commanders named Zhang Shihua promoted from among the old soldiers under his command couldn't help but give orders to the soldiers under Bai Xi's command like this.

That's right, the soldiers under Bai Xi's command were actually the soldiers he brought from Xizhou at that time, and this has not changed. However, the generals under his command, except for his brother-in-law who was his deputy Qianhu who was not broken up by Zhang Shihua, the remaining hundred household officers and platoon commanders were all promoted by Zhang Shihua from the old soldiers under his command in the name of military training.

In this way, these grassroots generals, their loyalty is undoubtedly Zhang Shihua. And this undoubtedly avoids the possibility of Bai Xi rebelling again, because as long as Bai Xi dares to rebel, these grassroots generals promoted by Zhang Shihua's veterans can put Bai Xi in the air in an instant, and let Bai Xi die without a place to be buried.

As for Zhang Shihua's approach, Bai Xi is naturally very clear, but he is very cooperative in this regard. Because he knows that if he wants Zhang Shihua to truly accept him, he must do so, so that Zhang Shihua can treat him as his own.

Otherwise, he can only be like Xu Ming, who was suspected and excluded by Zhang Shihua, and thus became a waste that was not a person inside and out, and was completely emptied by his subordinates.

And now, when Bai Xi ordered his corporal to rest in place, the scout battalion officer who was transferred to Bai Xi's command by Zhang Shihua and temporarily obeyed Bai Xi's order couldn't help but come to Bai Xi at this time with the information of the security station.

According to the smoke from the cooking stove this morning, the number of officers and soldiers stationed at the security station is expected to be around 1,000. With the General's current strength, the Admiral suggested that it would be best to wait for the Shogun's large army to arrive before attacking. ”

However, when Bai Xi heard this, his face couldn't help but sink, and he scolded the scout Baihu: "You are a scout, just do your part, whether to attack the city or not, you don't need to guide the general." After saying this, Bai Xi turned to the guards beside him with a calm face and shouted: "A quarter of an hour has come, continue to march, and after half an hour, start preparing to attack the city." ”

After giving this order, Bai Xi didn't look at the scout Baihu, but turned over his horse, led his soldiers, and continued to attack the security station not far away. Seeing Bai Xi ignoring him like this, the scout Baihu couldn't help but flash a trace of anger on his face, but thinking of the military law promulgated by his own general, "Whoever commits the following offenses, no matter who commits it, will be executed", he also had to suppress the anger in his heart, and took the two soldiers of the scout camp and turned over and left.

Half an hour, ten miles away, for these officers and soldiers who have undergone new training, it is not a problem, that is, about three quarters of an hour, less than half an hour, Bai Xi led more than 700 soldiers under his command, and they have already rushed to the outside of the security station.

The security station, just listen to the name, you know, this is a small pass, you must know that this place is only a small township even in the later generations. Therefore, although today's security station is a pass, this small pass has absolutely nothing to do with the word grandeur.

Even, the area of this place can garrison more than 1,000 people at most. This is actually the reason why there are a thousand officers and soldiers stationed in this gateway place. It's not that I don't want to garrison more soldiers, but I can only garrison so many people, and no more people will be stationed outside the security station.

However, although this place is small, it still looks like that.

At this security station, facing northeast, that is, in the direction where Bai Xi led his army, stood a stone wall almost four meters high. This stone wall looks short, but because of its geographical location, it happens to block the road leading to the periphery of Fang City.

In other words, this stone wall is the only way for Zhang Shihua and Bai Xi to attack Fangcheng, and if they want to attack Fangcheng, Zhang Shihua and Bai Xi must lay this stone wall.

However, in the face of such a small stone wall, Bai Xi naturally didn't take it to heart. After all, even a big city like Ruyang City, which is famous in the world, he Bai Xi has led people to kill it, how could he put such a small broken wall in his eyes.

Therefore, when Bai Xi led his soldiers to the security station, Bai Xi first waved his hand and asked a high-voiced guard to go out and call for battle. Of course, Bai Xi didn't expect the city guards at the security station to be really stupid enough to go out of the city to fight him, he did this just to hit the morale of these officers and soldiers guarding the city.

"Listen to the Tartars in the city, my general is the Red Turban Army, thousands of households in Nanyang Mansion Zhang Shihua and Lord Zhang's tent, and today my general is here to go south to ask for Tartars on the orders of Lord Zhang. My generals and other guards of the city are all Han Chinese. ”

"Therefore, my general said, "Wait, if you are willing to take the initiative to open the city gate and let my army enter the city, then you will wait for the abuse in the past, and my general will not be guilty of the past." If not...... Hmph, you will die without a place to be buried! ”

Then, after seeing the loud guards shouting these words, the hundreds of soldiers under Bai Xi's command also shouted in unison: "Kill!" Kill! Kill! Three shouts of killing, like thunder, suddenly played the role of the first to seize people.

When the officers and soldiers on the security wall who had never been through the battle formation saw this, they couldn't help but be shocked and their morale was greatly depressed.

But this is not to say that there are no brave people in this city. No, just after the Red Turban Army shouted three times to kill, a man dressed as a hundred households of officers and soldiers on the city wall he saw picked up the strong bow in his hand and pointed an arrow at the pro-guard who came out to call for battle.

This arrow was shot at the end of the fierce and tricky, and fortunately, this pro-guard soldier was wearing heavy armor and reacted quickly, so he grabbed this hidden arrow, otherwise he would have to be shot on the spot. But even so, the pro-guard soldier couldn't help but turn his horse's head and retreat in horror.

When the archery officer and soldier saw this, he sneered loudly: "Who I was at that time, it turned out that I was just a gutless bandit." That thief, do you dare to be so rampant again? After saying this, the hundred household officials couldn't help but let out a disdainful laugh.

Seeing this, Bai Xi outside the city couldn't help but flash a touch of anger on his face, and then saw him pull out the war knife at his waist with his hand, raise the knife and point at the security wall not far away and shouted: "Soldiers, give me a siege!" ”

"Kill!" Hearing Bai Xi's words, hundreds of soldiers under Bai Xi's command all shouted in unison, and then they saw these people carrying the siege ladder that had been prepared a long time ago, roaring angrily, and killing towards the security station not far away.

"Kill the thief!" Seeing Bai Xi and them coming, the Baihu official who shot arrows was the first to let out a roar. Then he saw him bend his bow like a full moon, and shoot the arrows in his hand at the red turban soldiers who had been killed outside the city. It has to be said that this man is a master of archery, and in this case, he still shot a red turban sergeant wielding a war knife with a single arrow.

The rest of the security guards were encouraged by him, and they all roared angrily and shot the arrows in their hands at the red turban sergeant outside the station. However, these people are much worse, just by virtue of their blood and bravery, without unified command, the arrows they shoot are not lethal at all.

The arrows shot by almost two hundred soldiers only killed and injured more than ten red turban soldiers, such an offensive could simply be ignored for the hundreds of soldiers under Bai Xi's command.

Therefore, after such a wave of arrows was fired, not only did it fail to stop the soldiers under Bai Xi's command, but under the effect of blood, the soldiers under Bai Xi's command became more and more crazy.

"Kill!" Soon, Bai Xi's soldiers roared and erected the siege ladders on the stone wall of the security guards. Seeing this scene, Bai Xi's face couldn't help but show a smile, but what happened after that made the smile on Bai Xi's face disappear instantly, as if to tell him that you were happy too early just now.

So what's going on? It turned out that it was just now, when the soldiers of the Red Turban Army had just erected a series of siege ladders on the stone wall of the security guard. On the city wall, a famous defender sergeant, under the loud roar of the hundreds of households, lifted a huge stone, picked up a basin of gold juice, and attacked the red turban sergeant outside the security station who was preparing to attack the city.
