The sentinels swirled up in billowing smoke and dust and drove from the east.

The closed gates of Huangzhou City slowly opened.

Standing outside the city tower, Su Liuyi's right hand pressed the battlement, and his left hand pressed on the hilt of the knife. On his side, more than a dozen bed crossbows are ready to be wound at any time, and the two big villages on the left and right outside the city are also flying red flags, Jiang Hao with the front compartment of the Tianwu Army on the left, Zhang Shun with the right compartment of the Tianwu Army on the right, as long as the city head gives an order, the elite of the two Tianwu Army can quickly line up.

"Report!" The sentry cavalry quickly ran up the city wall, "General Qiyu, the Tartar cavalry is less than fifty miles away from the city, and it is stopping to repair, and more than ten sentry spies have dispersed!" ”

Su Liuyi nodded slowly: "Order the left and right villages, as long as there is a sentry horse, intercept and kill immediately!" ”

The banner shook on the head of the city, and he galloped out of the city gate. Looking at the herald in the distance, Su Liuyi took a breath lightly, and he didn't know when the air around him was already filled with the breath of the battlefield, which made him couldn't help but be excited. Maybe only this long and bloody party is the destination of a good man!

Crumpled the note in his hand that he didn't know how long he had been holding into a ball, and the green tendons on Su Liuyi's palm burst out. Come on, I want to see how many capable 30,000 cavalry can break through the fortified city here. As long as he can drag you to death here, even if he makes a fuss in the west, Ah Shu doesn't have the courage to continue dividing his troops.

What's more, this fortified city is not the only one that entertains you.

A military general was draped all over, walked up to the city wall, and saw Su Liuyi standing there quietly looking into the distance, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "General Su, there are 9,000 soldiers outside the city, and there are 3,000 soldiers in the city, plus the local army, township soldiers and people, the scale of the city is already nearly 6,000 people. This is 15,000 young people, and General Su must be cautious. ”

"It is said that General Zhang's personality is cautious and meticulous, which can be seen." Su Liuyi said with a smile, but he didn't look back, his eyes just looked into the distance, "This time I wasn't caught off guard by the Mongolian Tartars, and thanks to the Jinyi Guard and the six doors operating in the center to deliver the news." ”

Zhang Cheng couldn't deny a smile: "There are a total of one hundred and twelve Jinyi guards and six gates in the city, ready to throw their heads and spill blood at any time, but please rest assured that General Su is." In fact, what the last general is worried about is still the south, this time it can be regarded as a dangerous move, and even the prime ministers of Longxing Mansion have been involved, if it fails, there is really no way to explain. ”

Su Liuyi smiled bitterly: "The west is in Luzhou, the east is in Huangzhou, the Tianwu army lives and dies, and it relies on two dangerous moves to maintain it, so that the king can be regarded as bold." If both wars are successful, thank God; succeeds and fails, and is ultimately worthy of the officials and countless soldiers; If they are all defeated, then it is really you and I who have no shame against the sky. ”

"General Su has such a discouraged look, so with the character of the last general, shouldn't he cry and grab the ground." Zhang Cheng rarely laughed, but neither he nor Su Liuyi laughed, because they both knew that what Su Liuyi said was not bad.

It's a gamble of life and death.

However, Zhang Cheng still blinked: "No matter what, I still believe in Ye Yuanjun." Since he was able to take the Tianwu Army to this point, he could naturally take the Tianwu Army further and go all the way to the end of the sky. You and I, as well as countless soldiers above and below the city, inside and outside the city, must live to redeem this heaven. ”

Su Liuyi was shocked, and immediately laughed heartily, as if he had only reacted to the smile in Zhang Cheng's previous sentence at this time.

Success, Chengren, afraid that it will do something, so it will be a vigorous battle!

A team of more than ten horses appeared in the sky, and then galloped along the gentle slope outside the city towards the direction of the camp outside the city. These men were all Mongolian bantams, and although they had no banners, they were all dressed in leather armor, black turbans, and sabers hanging from their waists.

"Here we are." Su Liuyi and Zhang Cheng looked at each other and smiled.

The speed of this horse team was really fast, like a whirlwind, swept between the left and right camps, almost the range of the bed crossbow and the god arm crossbow. Those who can serve as sentinels are naturally bold among the grassland athletes.

The back door of the camp on the left suddenly opened, and a team of more than ten light horses galloped out, also Mongolian bantams. After the battle of jute, many of the captured war horses were assigned to each compartment by Ye Yingwu, especially the front compartment, left compartment and right compartment that played in front of the striker every time, plus the original war horse, there were nearly 100 war horses in each compartment, and there were ten generals and Yu Hou who were responsible for training.

It's just that these more than ten cavalry are much worse than the Mongolian sentry horsemen. It seems that the fragility of the Song cavalry was also discovered, and this Mongolian sentry cavalry team, which was about the same number as the Song cavalry, quickly galloped forward, and swept between the left and right camps and the city walls, and engulfed the Song cavalry.

"Retreat!" The cavalry of the Song army did not mean to fight, and quickly opened a circle from a long distance, and ran straight to the edge of the moat, which was already the area defended by large bows and crossbows such as the god arm crossbow and the bed crossbow at the head of the city, although the Mongolian sentry cavalry was indignant about the opponent's timidity, but did not dare to really risk the danger to step forward, so they could only turn the horse's head and prepare to retreat in the direction where they came.

However, the camp on the right immediately opened the gate of the wall, and a group of cavalry galloped out, with thirty or forty people, and they were directly rampant on the way back from the Mongolian sentinels. How could the sons of the Mongolian steppe be afraid of these thirty or forty southern barbarians? What's more, when he saw the bantam horse that the other party was riding, he naturally knew that it was left by the brothers who died in Macheng, but how could any bloody man not feel humiliated?

There was no need to even give an order, the Mongolian sentinels urged their crotch mounts, and the horses neighed, rushing straight towards the Song cavalry.

"Kill!" There was a loud shout from the first cavalry of the Song army, which had retreated to the edge of the moat, and more than ten horsemen rolled up countless smoke and dust, and actually chased after the back road of the Mongolian sentry cavalry. The Mongolian sentinel cavalry came from a long drive, and the horsepower was naturally not as good as the cavalry of the Song army, and the two were getting closer and closer. The thirty or forty cavalry of the Song army in front of them quickly moved out of the way to the sides, and they had the posture of attacking the two sides after letting the Mongolian sentry horses pass.

And more than a dozen cavalry galloped out of the camp on the left, once again blocking the way back from the front!

"It's not good, it's surrounded, kill it from the front!" The commander of the Mongolian sentry cavalry also found that he was holding himself up, but at this time, he only had to fight desperately, but some southern barbarians who rode horses, how could they help these heroes on horseback?

"Forced!" There was a loud shout from the cavalry of the Song army at the same time, and the cavalry on the left side of the Mongolian sentry cavalry dispersed in a hurry, merging into the front, and actually formed a cavalry team of thirty or forty people, and faced the Mongolian sentry cavalry directly, while the cavalry on the right also quickly advanced forward. The cavalry in the rear also stormed from the right rear.

I didn't expect the Song army to change like this, and in shock, the Mongolian sentry subconsciously deflected the horse's head in the direction of the camp on the left, and stretched out the bow and arrow, only by exerting the cavalry can I deter these southern barbarians who don't know the height of the sky!

However, before they could even draw their bows and arrows, the dense number of arrows was already overwhelming, and a Mongolian sentry fell from his horse screaming! And the war horse that was hit by the arrow also screamed and neighed, and fell to the ground after running a short distance.

Jiang Hao, who was standing on the camp on the left, breathed a long sigh of relief, handed the divine arm crossbow in his hand to the guards on the side, and looked around the field, none of the Song troops were injured. I don't know if this counts as a victory in the first battle. However, in the eyes of Jiang Hao and others, it is more like a hunt.

"Not bad." Su Liuyi just spit out two words.

Zhang Cheng smiled and slapped the city wall hard.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Outside the city of Luzhou, a hundred battles are stationed.

I have to say that Gundam is still very kind to Ye Yingwu, an uninvited guest, although the camp of the Tianwu Army is nominally in the east of Luzhou City, but in fact it is backed by the water village of the two Huai Water Divisions, adjacent to the river bank, if there is really any change, Baizhan can directly get on the boat nearby and leave the place of right and wrong.

Ye Yingwu didn't say anything more, and pushed away the residence arranged by Gundam in the city, and lived directly in this army. The five hundred cavalry of the Tianwu Army in the Hundred Battles Capital were naturally camped in the middle, with Zhang Shijie's water village behind and the infantry horses allocated to Ye Yingwu by Gundam in front. And this large number of infantry cavalry also has a commander named Liu Xiong, who is as his name suggests, and his appearance is quite heroic, and he can't tell that he is a general who has just turned thirty.

Maybe it's because considering that Ye Yingwu's generals here from top to bottom are relatively young, so Gundam also knows each other and sends a relatively mild-tempered and relatively young person, so as to prevent the two thousand horsemen from disobeying Ye Yingwu's orders at that time, and blaming him for the Gundam's business! Of course, in fact, if Gao sent Wang Shichang over, Ye Yingwu might be happier, but this Liu Xiong can be regarded as a figure who later defended Luzhou, and it is not bad.

Contentment.

The big tent of the Chinese army was opened, Yang Xu hurriedly walked in, and only Ye Yingwu leaned on the back of the chair in the tent, and he didn't know if he was asleep. No wonder the two Tianwu soldiers standing outside the camp wanted to speak and stopped.

Gritting his teeth, Yang Xu still said: "Enlighten the envoy? ”

Ye Yingwu hummed tiredly, and slowly opened his eyes, at this time, Yang Xu came to report, there must be something big happened: "What?" ”

"Xing** quickly reported that Ashu sent 30,000 partial divisions to the east secretly, Qizhou had fallen, and the Tianwu army was forced to turn east and defend Huangzhou. In addition, the rear of the Tianwu Army and the Chinese Army that stayed behind in Xing** are ready to go out at any time to attack the rear road of the 30,000 partial divisions from the river. Yang Xu said reluctantly and calmly, the sudden change in the situation in Huangzhou in the east caught everyone off guard.

Ye Yingwu was slightly stunned, it was already expected that Ah Shu would not really attack Xiangyang, but he didn't expect that this guy really had the guts, so he avoided the truth and broke through Qizhou directly, which can be regarded as a model of striking the east and the west. Fortunately, a large number of people have been evacuated in Huangzhou, and the walls have long been cleared, and Su Liuyi is already good at guarding, so there is still not much worry about whether Huangzhou can hold Ye Yingwu.

Although it is 30,000 partial divisions, there are many Tianwu troops stationed in Huangzhou.

But at this time, what was the reason for Ashu's sudden attack on Qizhou? If it is to exterminate the Tianwu Army, is this force a little too much? Or is this another step in the process?

Although Ye Yingwu already knew that Zhang Shijie was coming west, Xia Song was heading east with a small fleet, and the remaining half of the entire two Huai Sailor Divisions were afraid that it would be difficult to control, but with Xia Song's fleet, it was still possible to make the disabled Mongolian sailors unable to eat and walk around!

Among them, I am afraid that there are still cats, but bystanders and insiders are confused.

"There is another thing, just two hours ago, the whole camp of Tongchuan Mansion Liu has begun to bury pots and make rice, and there is a steady stream of grain, grass and arrows sent into the camp." Yang Xu hesitated for a moment and then said, "And the defenders of several state capitals around Mongolia have also begun to assemble out of the city one after another, and the direction is Dazhou, an important town in Dongchuan. ”

Mongolia attacked Dazhou, Ye Yingwu already knew: "I don't care about other state capitals, I just want to know, what does Liu Cheng want to do?" ”

"Jinyiwei has not yet entered Liu Quanjun's army, and these news have also flowed out of the Tongchuan Mansion Restaurant, and it is difficult to determine whether it is even reliable." Yang Xu continued, "But the six doors and the sentry of the Jinyi Guard have been scattered, one is Dazhou, and the other is Liu Quantongchuan Mansion. ”

Ye Yingwu nodded: "Summoning Yang Bao, the sentry cavalry of the Hundred Battles cannot be idle, and the movements of the Mongolian army must be explored as soon as possible!" ”

Before the words fell, Ye Yingwu picked up the pen and wrote a few lines on the paper, sighed, and handed it to Yang Xu: "Quickly pass it to General Su of Huangzhou." ”

Yang Xu took the order and left, and Ye Yingwu sat back in the chair and gently rubbed his temples. Thousands of miles away, he can no longer do anything about Huangzhou, I only hope that Su Liuyi can be worthy of his trust to him, and bring back the Tianwu Army that embodies the hard work of himself and the entire Jiangnan West Road!

As for Xiangyang and Qizhou, how can they take care of it at this time. The Xing** base camp is firmly under control, and then talk about the rest.

After thinking for a moment, Ye Yingwu stood up abruptly and roared: "Yang Bao! Gathering! ”

There was an equally loud response outside, and then the drum of the Ju General had already "knocked and knocked". With the family background that Ye Yingwu brought here, the so-called gathering generals are actually only a few people coming over, and among them, Zhang Shijie, who Ye Yingwu can't control at all, has to be counted.

The three-way drum sounded, Wen Tianxiang, Yang Bao, Jiang Tie, Yang Xu and Liu Xiong, the commander assigned to Ye Yingwu, had all gathered, one was a civilian official, three were military generals who commanded the infantry and cavalry, plus a commander in charge of intelligence.

And that Liu Xiong is also very acquainted, Yang Bao is the same as him, and Jiang Tie is actually just a Duyu Marquis, but Liu Xiong knows that these two people are Ye Yingwu's henchmen and generals, and they also led the hundred battles to kill the corpse mountain and the sea of blood, so he stood directly behind the two people, hanging his head slightly, as long as Ye Yingwu did not command, he would not say a word.

A moment later, the curtain of the tent was lifted again, and Zhang Shijie also rushed over.

Fingers tapped lightly on the table, and everyone below subconsciously held their breath. Liu Xiong is okay, everyone else already knows, Ye Yingwu knocked his fingers on the table, indicating that he had made up his mind, and the sharp blade of the Tianwu Army, which had been hidden in the snow for too long, was about to be unsheathed!

The dust-proof curtain slipped down, and the fine wooden map appeared in front of him, Ye Yingwu stretched out his hand and knocked Dazhou fiercely: "The Mongolian army is directly aimed at Dazhou this time, and it has begun to mobilize troops." And Tongchuan Mansion, where Liu Quan is located, also began to gather grain and grass, but its movements are unknown. ”

Ye Yingwu's gaze immediately looked at Yang Bao.

Yang Bao did not shy away from prevarication, and stood up and said loudly: "Qiyu envoy, the last general thinks that Liu Quan's troops are pointing in two directions, or join forces with other state capitals, Mongolian Tatars, and attack Dazhou directly, or feint to attack Luzhou, so that there is no foreign aid in Dazhou. ”

Ye Yingwu couldn't deny it, just smiled.
