Fengnan County and Tangshan County are only seen as a vast plain area, Muyuan is the name of the local people to call this plain, from today, this ordinary plain will be destined to go down in history!
There was no sunshine on this day, it was overcast, and the dark clouds were so low that there was no doubt that it might not be long before it would be a downpour. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Liu Chen rode his horse and walked at the forefront of the 70,000-strong army, looking at the black and oppressive enemy army a mile away, but his heart calmed down.
Three days ago, he received a war letter from the enemy army in Tangshan County, Liu Chen also ordered all the soldiers to actively prepare for the battle, this morning, after all the generals had a full meal, 70,000 regular troops under the leadership of Liu Chen, all in the plain of Muyuan Bai Kai formation.
In the center is the Han army's guard battalion and land battalion, in front of it are 6,000 crossbowmen, there are more than 20,000 foot soldiers on the left and right, on the far left is the 5,000 cavalry of Tianjin County, led by Han Shizhong himself, and on the far right is the 5,000 cavalry of the two armies of Fengnan County and Yutian County, and the commander is Yang Rong, the defender of Yutian County.
On the opposite side, standing at the forefront were tens of thousands of foot soldiers, but not the foot soldiers of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, but those soldiers who followed Pan Bao to surrender, and they were placed on the front line by the Jinliao Alliance.
It was followed by more than 20,000 Jin-Liao coalition troops and a small number of Goryeo soldiers, on the right were thousands of iron cavalry of the Jin State, and the iron cavalry on the left belonged to the Liao State, which was only a lot more than the cavalry on Liu Chen's side.
Da-da-da-da! After the two armies set up their formations with each other, they saw dozens of horsemen suddenly rushing out of the enemy's formation, and the flags of Jin, Liao, and Goryeo were fluttering in the wind, and they stopped in the middle of the battlefield.
"Xiahou Ying!" Seeing this, Liu Chen suddenly shouted, "Lead thirty elite horsemen with me!" As he spoke, he rode his horse toward the middle of the battlefield.
Afterwards, Xiahou Ying pointed his spear, and thirty cavalrymen belonging to the Marine Battalion walked out of the position and caught up with Liu Chen's footsteps, which was also a three-pole banner, centered on the military flag of the Donglong Empire, and on the left and right sides were the Zhenbei Hou Banner with the word Zhenbei written with the word Zhenbei, and the Han Army military flag with Chinese characters written!
"Contemptible Pan Leopard, who is coming?" Liu Chen and dozens of other horsemen had just stopped in the middle of the battlefield, and under the three-pole banner on the opposite side, a military general wearing the battle armor of the Eastern Dragon Empire rode his horse and took a step or two and shouted at Liu Chen.
Hearing this, Liu Chen's face became gloomy, he looked at this military general with cold eyes, and said in a cold voice: "You are Pan Bao, the rebel general of Tangshan County?" ”
Pan Bao is in his thirties, younger than Zhang Shuyedu, is a hereditary nobleman of the empire, so he became the highest guard of Tangshan County, before that, high above, the sudden arrival of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, so that Pan Bao's good life was shattered, after seeing the combat power of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, Pan Bao in order to survive, thought twice, and chose to surrender.
Pan Bao is the general of the Donglong Empire, and he is very clear about the current situation of the Donglong Empire, and now the Donglong Empire is in the midst of civil strife, and the military power is extremely high, and the army of the Three Kingdoms Alliance is not able to catch it.
In order to survive, Pan Bao had to make a choice, at least surrendering may not necessarily die immediately, but if he does not surrender, once the Three Kingdoms Alliance army enters the city, he will definitely die.
After surrendering and becoming a member of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, Pan Bao felt more and more that he was not wrong to surrender, because he had witnessed the strength of the Three Kingdoms Alliance, and even he thought that it was very likely that the Three Kingdoms Alliance would be able to destroy the Eastern Dragon Empire, so Pan Bao was now a desperate departure from the Eastern Dragon Empire.
Not to mention, Pan Bao is very talented in pleasing people, and the generals of the Three Kingdoms Alliance will be comfortable in the future, Pan Bao's status in the Three Kingdoms Alliance is also rising, and there are not many Donglong generals who surrendered to the Three Kingdoms Alliance, but when it comes to status, in the Three Kingdoms Alliance, there are really few imperial generals who surrender as high as Pan Bao.
Over time, the commanders of the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army in Tangshan County trusted Pan Bao very much, so they often took Pan Bao with him, because Pan Bao was there, they did not worry about the good-looking Donglong woman, and they also did not worry about huge wealth, it was precisely because of this that between the two armies, Pan Bao could replace the generals of the Three Kingdoms Alliance Army and ask Liu Chen.
However, as soon as Liu Chen's words came out, Pan Leopard's expression changed, what he hated most now was that some people said that he was a traitor, and if the people told him this, he would destroy him, and if the soldiers under his command said this, they would bury him alive, and when he heard Liu Chen say this, his eyes were full of murderous intent when he looked at Liu Chen!
"You're going to die, I promise, you're going to die ugly!" A look of resentment flashed in Pan Bao's eyes, and he said to Liu Chen.
Liu Chen turned a blind eye to this, if it weren't for the fact that the two armies would not fight and not be killed, with Liu Chen's strength, at such a close distance, he could be killed with a wave of his hand, so for a person who was bound to die, Liu Chen would not have the same knowledge as him.
"Ben Hou is the Northern Marquis of the Imperial Town, and the momentum of the Three Kingdoms Alliance is like a rainbow, so do you need a rebel general from our country to say something? Could it be that none of you in the Triple Alliance can speak human words? Liu Chen said loudly, he was not afraid that the people of the Three Kingdoms Alliance would not understand what he said, because these countries were all subordinate countries of the Donglong Empire before, and they were more or less able to understand the language of the Donglong Empire.
"Arrogance!" Seeing that Liu Chen didn't pay attention to him at all, Pan Bao felt a burst of humiliation in his heart, and roared angrily to draw his sword.
"Stand down!" Suddenly, a middle-aged man in his forties, wearing a Jin Guo general's uniform, spoke, and saw him take two steps on his horse, wave his hand, and signal Pan Bao to retreat.
Seeing this, although Pan Bao wanted to behead Liu Chen under the horse now, he had to obey the express order of this golden general, so he glared at Liu Chen fiercely and retreated to his original position.
"It turned out to be the Marquis of Zhenbei of the Eastern Dragon Empire, what a disrespect! Disrespectful! This golden general said disrespectfully, but his demeanor was extremely disdainful of Liu Chen, and he only heard him say, "I am Jin Bo, the owner of the Great Gold Inlaid Blue Flag, this is Xiao Heda, the general of the Great Liao State, and this is the general Han Yuanming of Goryeo!" ”
As soon as Jin Bo's voice fell, two more generals rode out, one was dressed in Liao State battle armor, in his thirties, with facial expressions, and the other was also in his thirties, wearing Goryeo military armor that Liu Chen was very familiar with, and was looking at Liu Chen with a gloomy face at the moment.
Liu Chen has long known that the surname of the royal family of the Jin State is the surname Jin, in the Jin State, except for the royal family who can be surnamed Jin, no one else is allowed to use this surname, the Liao State and the Jin State are almost the same, in the Liao State, the Xiao family is the largest surname in the Liao State, but unlike the Jin State, in the Liao State, civilians can also be surnamed Xiao.
The army of the Jin State has eight banners, each flag has 50,000 people, the eight banners army is all the army of the Jin country, these eight flags are yellow, yellow, white, white, red, red, blue and blue, Liu Chen did not expect that the attack on Tangshan County was one of the eight flag owners of the Jin country, the blue flag owner, this is the high-ranking and powerful big man of the Jin country!
Xiao Heda, Liu Chen is not very familiar, but Liu Chen can feel that the top generals of these three countries here, Xiao Heda's strength is the strongest, and he actually has the strength of the early stage of the innate stage, which makes Liu Chen a little surprised.
As for the last Goryeo general who didn't have a good face for Liu Chen, Liu Chen knew why the other party didn't have a good face, the number of Jin, Liao, and Goryeo in Tangshan County was not much different, but Liu Chen annihilated nearly 20,000 Goryeo soldiers in one battle, which made it only a few thousand soldiers left under Han Yuanming's command now, and it would be strange if he had a good face.
