Chen Jin and Yang Yun had just fought a big battle, both sides were exhausted from fighting, and they recuperated one after another, and Li Yao decided to start attacking the ten counties in the northeast!

In fact, the most difficult to fight is Shitai County, other counties are basically only 3,000 city guards, in addition, there is a county town that must be fought for, that is, Huxian, Huxian connects the national capital to the waterway and land of the ten counties in the northeast, Yiguo because it has not burned for a long time, and the local civil war is pitiful, so although Huxian is geographically extremely important, it is not heavily guarded, and the county city wall is also very low, so Li Yao's first stop is Huxian.

Li Yao's strategy for these ten county towns was a surprise war, and the army was divided into three routes, all the way to occupy Huxian, all the way to occupy other counties, and all the way to occupy Shitai County!

Because the geographical location of Huxian is extremely important, Li Yao is ready to let the blind man lead five divisions plus one brigade of firearms troops and two brigades of cavalry, a total of more than 60,000 troops to occupy Huxian!

It is not difficult to occupy Huxian County, the most important thing is to guard Huxian County, so Li Yao gave so many men to the blind man, and Li Yao was ready to let Li Feng lead the army to fight over in turn, while he went to attack Shitai County!

Because Huxian is in the middle of the ten counties in the northeast, the blind man is ready to use the cavalry to sneak attack first, and the cavalry is riding all the best Dawan horses, so it is absolutely advantageous in terms of speed, even if other counties see this army passing, there is no way to stop it.

Huxian is more than 300 miles away from the three northern counties, and with the speed of Dawan Horse, it will take half a day, so Li Yao will rely on this blitzkrieg to quickly occupy Huxian!

Huxian is a place where water and land routes are very developed, so it has a large population. The flow of people is also very large, even if Yiguo is now in constant war. It did not affect the economic development of Huxian County in the slightest, after all, Huxian County is only about 100 miles away from the royal capital. Even if something happens to Huxian, Wang Du can quickly send someone to the rescue!

The blind man planned to let each cavalry go with an infantryman, so that in one night, five thousand cavalry and five thousand foot soldiers could reach Huxian at the same time, three hundred miles, even if the foot soldiers forced the march would take two days, so these soldiers would have to hold out for two days anyway!

In this raid on Huxian, each soldier was equipped with three days' worth of dry food, and when the green onion cake and white-flour steamed buns were in the hands of the Yiguo native army, those Yiguo native soldiers were reluctant to eat a bite. This is food with oil and salt, kicked into the arms and preserved!

That night, 5,000 cavalry set out with 5,000 foot soldiers, and in addition to each person's armor and weapons, each person was also equipped with two grenades. The cost of these 5,000 cavalry is as great as the cost of the firearms unit, but Li Yao's heart and soul are baby!

The blind man led 10,000 troops to attack Huxian, and the blind man also arranged manpower at the scouts in Huxian early, as long as he waited until there was a rocket launch in the sky, he would quickly seize the north gate of Huxian!

Huxian is located in the heart of the heart. So don't be afraid of security, after all, there are several counties in front of them, and because of the large flow of people, there is no curfew here at night. Pedestrians can come out at will! This also created favorable conditions for a scout force of thirty people!

There are not many people on duty at the North Gate, only about a hundred people, and most of them sleep at night! But there are always awake people in a hundred. Therefore, more than thirty scouts could not be assassinated at close range. So they all took out their grenades in unison and waited quietly for the signal.

Because it's night. So it took them at least an hour from hearing the sound of the battle to gathering at the attack to the north gate, with the speed of the cavalry. You can definitely enter all of them in one hour!

The blind man led the night when he galloped ten miles from the north gate, dismounted and changed to walking, and put sacks on the horse's paw to prevent the horses from making noise!

It was almost dawn when more than 10,000 blind people rushed to Huxian, but the time before dawn was the darkest time and people were also particularly sleepy, so the 10,000 army had been quietly displayed at the north gate of Huxian, and the defenders on Huxian County did not find it, and with the rocket shooting, the scouts received the information! Shouted: "Light the fuse, throw the grenade!" ”

More than thirty grenades were thrown at the city gate and city walls in unison, and in an instant, the sound of explosions on the city walls was endless, and the howls also rang out!

The Huxian soldiers didn't know what this was, and they thought that it was the power of the heavens, even if it was in the case of broken hands and feet, they were the first to kneel and worship!

At this time, the scouts took out their swords one after another, eliminated the city guards at the gate of the north gate, and then lowered the drawbridge and let the army enter the city!

At this time, the city guards who were resting in the camp heard the cry and got up one after another, but when they were not wearing Qi armor, the blind man led the five thousand cavalry under the leadership of the scouts to kill them, and the people were particularly confused when they just woke up, watching the sound of horses' hooves, the city guards were cut down before they could resist, and the blind man shouted: "Those who descend will not die!" "As soon as the city guards heard that they had surrendered, even in normal times the foot soldiers were no match for the cavalry, and now that the cavalry was twice as large as the foot soldiers, it was even more impossible for them to resist!

After collecting the weapons of the city guards, Huxian basically has no defense force, and there are only about a hundred and ten city guards in the other city gates, and they can no longer pose a threat at this time!

Five thousand foot soldiers quickly occupied the county, and the blind man led the cavalry to kill the county office, the most important thing to occupy a county seat is to occupy the county government, only to occupy the county office, can be regarded as the real occupation of the county seat, five thousand cavalry quickly surrounded the county office, the county commander and other county officials saw that the five thousand cavalry surrounded the county office, and they did not have the intention of resisting, and the blind man shouted: "Descend to avoid death", the county officials have opened the door and surrendered! At this time, the sky is already bright, but Huxian is no longer in Yiguo!

The first thing to do to occupy a county is to occupy the granary, Huxian as a transportation hub, it is definitely a rich county, there are more than one million quintals of rice in the granary in the county alone, which can make the blind man happy, and after quickly occupying the granary, the blind man will start to manage!

Let the county order gather the local tyrants and squires, and the blind man looked at these people and said: "I didn't come here to plunder this time, so as long as you are obedient, we can live in peace!" ”

When those local tyrants and squires heard what the blind man said, they all relaxed their hearts, and they were relieved to see that this army did not plunder even if it occupied the county seat, and the military discipline was very good!
