When the bright moonlight shone on the head of Suzhou City, Lao Wang, the captain who was guarding the city pass, slowly opened his eyes, tightened the cold armor on his body, and glanced at his companions around him with a confused gaze.

He blinked his eyes a few times, stretched his waist, and then glanced nonchalantly to the west.

After the Song army pressed the border the night before yesterday, the general Li Jingjun ordered the soldiers defending the city to be on duty day and night, keeping an eye on the direction of the west anytime and anywhere, in case the Song army suddenly arrived by surprise.

Lao Wang and his companions continued to keep vigil in turn, but the Song army did not rush to attack the city, but drove from sixty miles away to camp in the wilderness ten miles outside the city.

The scouts outside the city were one after another, and the scouts sent out did not come to report the news. The various sentry posts on the city tower were also wide-eyed, always observing the movements of the Song army outside the city.

Therefore, Lao Wang, like other soldiers defending the city, in addition to being tired and unbearable, his vigilance against the city has gradually relaxed.

Lao Wang subconsciously glanced westward, but he didn't expect that when he looked at it, his body suddenly stiffened!

After only being stunned for a moment, the battle-hardened old king woke up in an instant, pointed to the moving fire in the distance, and shouted loudly: "What is that, the Song army is here!" Song Jun is here! Everyone, hurry up! ”

Hearing Lao Wang's almost heart-rending shout, mixed with some inexplicable language, the more than 10,000 party soldiers at the head of Ximen City woke up in an instant.

As soon as the words fell, news also came from the Tanma sentry posts in the distance, and in just a few breaths, the city suddenly became chaotic and lively.

"Quick, go and tell the general!"

"Brothers, do a good defensive position!"

In the face of the movement of the Song Dynasty army outside the city, the defenders of Suzhou were organizing the fortifications in an orderly manner after a short period of intense drumming.

At this moment, in the general's mansion in Suzhou City, Li Jingjun has never taken off his armor, because he has always been an extremely cautious person.

Li Jingjun guarded the side of the Western Xia royal family in Suzhou, so that the Western Liao army had not achieved a large number of achievements for many years, which is enough to show that he is shrewd and steady.

"General!"

Just when Li Jingjun was meditating under the lamp with a solemn face, the deputy general Jian Hetai hurriedly walked in.

"Did the Song army start attacking the city?" Li Jingjun slowly stood up, and then asked in a solemn tone to the kneading Tai who came in.

"Exactly, Captain Wang came to tell you that the Song army outside the city had rushed to the city!"

"Well, it's the most sleepy in the middle of the night, this Ye Yu will choose the time, go, this general will meet this Nanban myth for a while!"

Li Jingjun picked up the exquisite scimitar on the table and walked straight out of the general's mansion.

……

Outside the city of Suzhou, in the Song military camp.

The sound of horses' hooves was like thunder, and the earth-shattering sound of war drums broke the silence of the wilderness.

With the sound of war drums, a group of Song soldiers with bright armor walked out of the barracks and began to attack in front of the barracks.

In front of the three armies, Ye Yu sat on top of the chasing wind, wearing a white cloak that looked very elegant, and the killing momentum of the current Song army felt incompatible.

Because he is too much like a weak scholar!

Perhaps only the Wentian Sword worn on his waist somewhat set off a little killing aura.

"Your Highness, everything is ready!"

Although Xin Qiji is a scribe, he is also a veteran of the frontier, and in the face of Suzhou City in front of him, he is already high-spirited.

Ye Yu nodded slightly, and then said in a calm tone: "Jiaxuan, let's start then!" ”

"Yes!"

Then Ye Yu smiled at Wu Yuechan on the side: "Yuechan, let your Wu family's 30,000 troops line up, and take a serious look at how Zhan Yunqi is accustomed to using firearms!" It's good to learn this way, and provide a model for your father's siege in the future! ”

"Your Highness, you are wrong, there is no Wu Jiajun here......"

Ye Yu just smiled meaningfully, and said without commenting: "Since that's the case, why don't you go?" ”

"The last general obeys!"

Staring at Suzhou City in the distance, Ye Yu did not follow the routine of calling the battle before the battle on the ancient battlefield, but directly ordered the army to prepare firearms to attack the city.

Because in his Ye Yu's eyes, a qiē tongue is fearless nonsense, he doesn't think that everything can be solved with just two lips.

There are only 20,000 people left in the original team of the current Zhanyun Iron Cavalry, and the remaining 10,000 cavalry are newcomers who were reabsorbed in the war.

The name of the current Zhanyun Cavalry can be described as the ultimate yearning of the soldiers who joined the army at present, which is equivalent to the high yearning of ordinary soldiers for special forces in later generations.

Therefore, the 10,000 newcomers absorbed, although they cannot be compared with the original people who have been tempered for thousands of years, are also the elite of the Song army.

However, this time the grenade was used to siege the city, and the 10,000 newcomers were also left aside.

I saw that outside Suzhou City in the wilderness, the 20,000 Zhanyun cavalry automatically formed a team of 1,000 people, and then quickly divided into twenty horizontal queues.

Xin Qiji then immediately raised his gun and immediately entered the military formation, commanding the twenty queues.

"First team, out of line!"

At the sound of an order, a thousand cavalrymen at the forefront of the formation straddled their horses.

"Shoot long!"

As soon as Xin Qiji's high-pitched voice fell, the first team of thousands of iron horsemen galloped towards Suzhou City!

The galloping horses rolled up bursts of dust, as if to hide the bright moonlight, and the sound of horses' hooves made the ground tremble violently.

On the city of Suzhou, Li Jingjun had already climbed the city tower, looking at the cavalry rushing outside the city from a distance, and he suddenly felt that his thinking was a little short-circuited.

Because of this first battle of attacking the city with cavalry, it was the first time that he Li Jingjun encountered it.

Li Jingjun really didn't understand what kind of tactics the Song army had, could it be that the Song army could still ride a war horse to cross the moat, and then jump directly onto the city wall about a few feet high?

This kind of situation is a fantasy when you think about it!

There are many types of warfare, cavalry is good at charging and chasing in the wilderness, while infantry is good at fighting in small spaces. In the same way, there are naturally infantry who specialize in siege to attack the city!

Cavalry, no matter which country it is, is an expensive type of army built with real money, and it is even more of a luxury for the Song army, so how can it be so consumed?

"General, Song Jun is ......"

The adjutant general on the side was even more puzzled than Li Jingjun, and said in his heart Is there something wrong with this Song army's head, and this dignified cavalry is going to be so bad?

The two of them looked at Song Jun's actions with doubts, and as these soldiers defending the city, they were temporarily stunned at first, and then many people began to laugh.

"These Song barbarians are really turtles, they can't use them if they have cavalry, and they actually let the cavalry attack the city, it's ridiculous!"

"Song Manzi has always had a problem with his brain, what's so strange about this, haha!"

"I thought that Song Manzi would use more soldiers, but now it seems that it is nothing more than that, the last time the emperor drove the expedition in person, he must have fallen into the trick of the Song army, otherwise it would be with this group of Song Manzi with a head and pig brain......"
