487th Battle of Thang Long City 5

However, the 300,000 troops of the Great Song Kingdom were still unable to touch the edge of Thang Long City, and in the rainy season and the plague, there were countless diseases and deaths, and the famous general did not throw down the corpses of the soldiers and fled in a hurry.

Not to mention, what about other countries like Champa and Dali?

Moreover, if it is really like what his subordinates say, no one has sent any war alert at the border gate until now!

Even if a large number of pirates came from the sea, and they wanted to make a fortune in the country of Dayue, but the entire waterway of the Red River was not completely undefended!

There has been no news of an enemy attack on the eastern side, and during the day, not even the flames of war have been seen.

However, Wu Yanjiao knew that his subordinate had always been very clever, and he would never dare to joke about this kind of head-off event, and the fire just now was indeed strange.

In fact, this is the little colonel who reported the news deliberately concealed the fact that he burned down the hidden house in a hurry. After all, it's a public house.

For the sake of prudence, Wu Grudge sent his subordinates to immediately go to investigate the true situation at the east gate.

As a result, the three groups of people sent by Wu Grievance Fake one after another were all heard from. These people were naturally arranged by Cai Dao as a secret sentinel, and if they could be captured alive, they were captured alive, and if they couldn't be captured alive, they were directly shot by the Song army's secret sentinel with a hard crossbow on the spot, and they were also given nearly ten good horses for nothing.

In this way, a lot of time was delayed, and it also won a lot of time for the completion of a series of tasks assigned by Cai Dao.

By the time the martial grudge came back, it was already too late.

After a few deep thoughts, Wu Yanjiao decided to report the matter to the higher authorities immediately, but before that, he finally made up his mind, and a very important thing to complete - that is, he would first send his clever subordinates to Huangquan Road.

Because, he knows, once the upper hand knows that he hesitates and delays time, the result will definitely be eight words.

Instead of reactive, there were.

Killing the head is still a trivial matter.

Wu Yanjiao knew in his heart that if Master Li Changjie knew about this, his entire family would fall into a situation from which he could not recover, and the murder could not be known to his other subordinates. This is because, as an espionage organization of the Great Yue Kingdom, it is basically the norm for one's own people to spy on their own people.

Even Wu Yanjiao himself has already noticed that among his subordinates, there are always people secretly monitoring his every move.

You must know that Li Changjie, a ruthless guy, is now the big leader of this spy organization similar to the Imperial City Division in the Dayue Kingdom, and it is no wonder that Li Gande trusts him so much.

Who made Li Changjie a eunuch and outstanding in the military?

After the idea was set, Wu Yanjiao recruited the little school who reported the news into his study and closed the door. After waiting for a long time, the people outside heard the fierce shouts of the martial arts in the room: "Someone! Go and call the military doctor to come over, so-and-so is seriously injured, come on, go find Lang Zhong and come over! ”

By the time Lang Zhong in the army came, it was already too late, and the little colonel who reported the news had already fallen in a pool of blood.

So, before dawn, Da Yue lost a loyal minister who was originally meritorious to the country, but had a humble official position, and no one knew about it, so he was assassinated by his top boss.

That's it, Wu Grudge still refuses to give up, and he also took the opportunity to kill the subordinate who has been monitoring him with a knife, and the excuse is very simple. That messenger was assassinated by the man he had just killed, otherwise how could an uninjured person suddenly die in good shape?

Speaking of which, this martial grudge still has a certain right in his hands, and after passing the news, he led all his subordinates and immediately rushed to the forbidden army camp in Dongcheng.

However, what Wu Yanjiao didn't expect was that even he himself would not be able to mobilize all the troops stationed in Thang Long City in the east now. This is because Wu Yanjiao found that the camps he went to in person, and his generals all seemed to have made an appointment, and they all went to drink flower wine at the same time last night. Haven't you returned to camp until now?

After turning around most of the eastern city, in the end, Wu Yanjiao still found a general who was still loyal to his duties, and he told the other party everything he knew. In fact, all the things he knew came from the dead little school.

This general, named Li Zhongbao, is still Li Changjie's own nephew, his official position is not low, and there are many soldiers under him, including 5,000 forbidden troops. But it is precisely because of such an identity that Li Zhongbao could listen to the words of a secret sentinel officer?

Helpless, Wu complained and begged for a long time, swore an oath, and finally, he also made a note with his own hands, which moved Li Zhongbao.

The forbidden army under Li Zhongbao is still elite, while the soldiers under Cai Dao are mostly recruits as the backbone, except for the team of sword and axe men who have been charging ahead.

Moreover, Li Zhongbao's team had 1,500 more people than Cai Dao's men.

In this way, the two teams met unexpectedly on the long street.

Whether it is in terms of the individual ability of the soldiers or the number of people, the team to which Li Zhongbao belongs is sure to win. But Cai Dao was not in a hurry at all when he saw this situation, and waved his hand behind him, Cai Ban immediately understood, and rode a pony to immediately let Xie Feibao act according to the established plan.

The soldiers of the Song army stopped without saying a word, stood their own positions, and looked ahead.

In the center of the Song army's formation, there were pikemen, standing in three rows. They picked up the spears in their hands, held the handles tightly with both hands, and silently pointed at the Da Yue army in front.

On both sides are sword and shield soldiers, and they are led by those bloodthirsty sword and axe men in Yongzhou. Compared to the spear formation, the formation on both sides is a little loose. However, this is exactly the street fighting strategy deliberately arranged by Cai Dao - the center is defended, the two wings are assaulted, and the back is roundabout.

Behind the pikemen, there were the archers. Compared to the sword and shield soldiers and pikemen in front of them, the number of archers is more than twice that of the other two classes, and this time, these archers are not holding ordinary bows and arrows, except for crossbow arrows, which are divine arm bows. In order to make this southern expedition smooth, Cai Dao has invested enough.

After his subordinates found out the specific number of the other party, Cai Dao breathed a sigh of relief, the number of five thousand people is just right for his team to let the troops practice.

If the opponent's troops were more than 10,000 people, then the Song army would feel strained.

On the surface, the other party is really an elite army.
