Chapter 422: Thunder Strike (I)

In the early morning, Dingzhou City, which had been noisy for most of the night, finally fell silent, and the red lanterns hanging under the eaves were shining, drifting left and right with the morning breeze, like a meandering galaxy in the sky, lighting up the entire Dingzhou City.

Ten miles outside the city, the 10,000 barbarian cavalry of Noqia, who had just been transferred back, plus Li Qing's 3,000 personal guards, were ready to go. The torches stretched for miles, reflecting the lights of Dingzhou City.

10,000 barbarian elite to the Bai cavalry, these cavalry is well-equipped, almost not inferior to the most elite Changsheng battalion and whirlwind battalion in Dingzhou, two battalions of cavalry, now they are still uniformly equipped with scimitars, riding bows, spears, one person and two horses, if it is not for the flag they hit is the Dingzhou military flag, at first glance, people who do not know why still think that the barbarians have resurged.

Li Qing's 3,000 guards are the essence of the Dingzhou army as usual, and their equipment is much stronger than that of the barbarian iron cavalry, each of them is equipped with a waist knife, and a horse chopping knife up to several meters long, in addition to the long bow, these people are also additionally equipped with five-shot repeating crossbows, especially their armor, which is specially made, and the protection is much stronger than ordinary armor. These three thousand guards are basically at the level of Yunlu Captain, and the proportion of ordinary soldiers is very small, and their commander is naturally the one-eyed general Tang Hu.

Nokia stood beside his war horse, looking at the 10,000 tigers under his hand, but his heart was full of emotion, more than a year, he was going to set foot on the battlefield again, but this time he was fighting side by side with the previous life and death enemy, and it was nothing more than this.

Nokia firmly remembered Bayar's words before his death, Li Qing lived for a day, don't think about dissent, and the barbarians are now living and working in peace and contentment, which also makes Nokia understand more in his heart that if he wants his people to live more dignified in Dingzhou, he and his soldiers must exchange their blood for it, and the hatred between the two clans wants to be diluted, which cannot be completed in a short time, and the most concise thing is to live and die together on the battlefield, when several big battles are fought, When victory comes, when these Dingzhou soldiers return to the place, they will drive more people to be more friendly to the barbarians, and the estrangement between the two races will be slowly diluted.

The sound of horses' hooves sounded in the distance, Nokia was in good spirits, and Li Dashuai arrived, he stood up straight and straightened his armor. The sound of horses' hooves was near, dozens of horses galloped over, it was Li Qing, who was guarded by Tang Hu's iron leopard, when he saw Nokia, Li Qing laughed and turned over and dismounted, strode to Nokia, and said with a smile: "General Nuo, it is really Li Qing's sin to let you pass the house without entering, presumably Princess Nafu is scolding me again, hahaha!" ”

Nokia hugged his fists and said: "The handsome man laughed, Nafu is no longer the character of the year, and now she wants to be a mother again, and she is more stable." ”

Li Qing smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said, "Really? That's right, people are going to become, General Nuo, this time we can do a big deal, are you ready? ”

"I am willing to drive forward for the handsome and go to the soup and fire, and I will not give up!" Nokia is in color.

"Good!" Li Qingdao. "This is going to expand the territory and make contributions, General Nuo, you can tell your subordinates that they are also Dingzhou soldiers now, so they will enjoy the same treatment as the original Dingzhou soldiers, as long as there is merit, the original Dingzhou army has, they will have it, land, houses, the same will not be less."

"Thank you, Dashuai!" Nokia Xie said.

"Let's go!" Li Qing gave an order, 13,000 cavalry troops, tens of thousands of war horses raised their four hooves, and galloped towards the direction of Luo Feng Changqi.

Luzhou, since Lu Zhaoting was kidnapped by the Dingzhou Statistical Survey Department in the territory, Luo Feng Changqi was taken away by Shengsheng, tens of thousands of troops Chen soldiers border, Luzhou Marshal Xu Hongwei knew that he had been targeted by Dingzhou, at this time he regretted it, secretly hated himself for being bewitched by the Lu family, and stepped into this dim black hole without knowing the depths, the Lu family is a hungry tiger, but Dingzhou Li Qing is not a hungry wolf? But there is no regret medicine to take in the world, and now he has no other way but to tie himself more firmly to the Lu clan's chariot.

The Luzhou Standing Army was rapidly expanded from 20,000 to 100,000, fortunately, Luzhou was not short of money, and he himself was even richer, and the soldiers' armor and weapons were supported by the Lu family, and they could be gathered, but the quality of the soldiers was hard to say, even if Xu Hongwei was not very familiar with military affairs, he also knew that it was impossible for a group of farmers and craftsmen to become qualified soldiers in a short period of time, but now he is sick and rushed to the doctor, and there is no other way.

Along the line of Chen County, Kang County, Moling, Sangzhu, and Suning, he arranged the original 10,000 standing troops and 50,000 new troops here in one go. But whether or not Li Qing's elite iron cavalry can be sealed, even the bravest soldiers in Luzhou are sad in their hearts.

Moling is the center of this defense line, and the Chinese army of Xu Ji, the general of Luzhou, is stationed here, and 10,000 standing troops and 10,000 new troops are ready to prepare for the attack of the Dingzhou army.

A few days ago, each county at the same time appeared a small scale of enemy sentry cavalry, the number of people from a few to dozens of people, etc., a person with two knives, vertical and horizontal whistling, whistling away, as if to spy on the defense line of the virtual reality, the defense line sent cavalry to kill these sentinels, but the effect is not satisfactory, you go less, these Dingzhou sentinels will be anti-guest-based, take the initiative to attack, these people are superb in horsemanship, the arrow is very accurate, to the more than a dozen people will dare to attack the opponent of dozens of people, but you have a lot of people, they will flee, One person is equipped with two horses, and these sentry scouts can get nothing except the smoke and ridicule left for the pursuers all the way. All of a sudden, morale was even lower,

Xu Ji ordered the counties not to attack again, and let these sentry horses come and go freely, he knew that it was impossible for the Dingzhou soldiers to attack at the same time on such a wide horizontal plane, and there must be only one direction of their main attack, but where would this main attack point be? Each county sent out a large-scale sentry at the same time, and the other party was watching the reality, it seemed that they wanted to find a weak point, and the blow worked. In addition to ordering his generals to defend the city, Xu Ji had no other way, the enemy on the opposite side was to defeat the Dingzhou army of the barbarians who had been suffering from Great Chu for hundreds of years in the field battle, and was known as the strongest army in the world, and he had no confidence at all in the field battle with the enemy. Only the high walls could give him a little confidence.

But seeing the thin city wall of Moling, Xu Ji had an urge to scold his mother, the handsome only thought about holding money, and never had the idea of thinking of danger in times of peace, most of the city walls in Luzhou were like Moling, vulnerable, after he arrived at Moling, although he mobilized a lot of manpower and material resources to strengthen the city wall, but the original foundation was too thin, and it was not easy to change qualitatively for a while.

God forbid! Xu Ji could only ask the gods and Buddhas to show mercy.

In March, the signs of war were already obvious, to Xu Ji's surprise, the enemy's main attack point was actually selected in the location of the Chinese army where he was stationed with heavy troops, Moling, the enemy obviously did not put himself in his eyes, and wanted to knock out the center of the defense line in one fell swoop, so as to break the entire defense line. The other counties of the defense line are all stationed in the new army, the combat strength is insufficient, and only their own Moling has a little strength, it is obvious that the enemy also sees this, as long as he defeats himself, he is afraid that the army of the rest of the counties will immediately smear the soles of their feet and flee.

In addition to being shocked, Xu Ji was also stimulated to be angry, since he looked down on himself so much, then come on, even if the Luzhou soldiers are not as elite as you, but relying on the city wall, it is not without a fight.

Under the city, many trenches were dug criss-crossed, above the open space, horses and antlers were rejected, and there were forests everywhere, and the thistle terrestris was hidden in the grass, Xu Ji's tactical idea was to defend and then defend.

These days, standing on the high city wall every day, looking at the horizon in the distance, has become Xu Wei's compulsory course, and his mood is becoming more and more anxious, and the whole Moling is filled with an uneasy atmosphere.

Three days later, smoke and dust appeared in the distance, and immediately, a knight with a large banner in his hand swept out of the smoke and dust, and then the second and third, more and more cavalry appeared in Xu Ji's field of vision.

"It's finally here!" Xu Ji sighed secretly, "Ring the bell to warn and prepare for battle!" ”

The alarm bell rang in the mole, and the whole city was in a hurry, and countless soldiers poured into the city, hiding behind the stacks, staring at the growing cavalry in the distance.

In the smoke and dust in the distance, there were still cavalry coming in a steady stream, and the front one had arrived not far from Moling City, and the soldiers holding the flag at the head galloped towards them, while the other soldiers reined in their horses and watched the movements of the soldiers holding the flag in front.

The flag-holding soldier is extremely good at riding, galloping wildly, seemingly ignoring the criss-crossing trench in front, when the war horse can reach the edge of the trench, a beautiful oblique turn, the war horse stepped on the edge of the trench, turned away, the horse's hooves stepped on the soil, fell into the trench, the city of Luzhou soldiers invariably let out an exclamation, and the knight by horsepower, the flag in his hand was thrown violently, whistling, the banner with the sound of the wind, deeply rooted in the open space under the city, the banner unfurled, hunting in the wind.

Immediately the knight turned his head to look at the city, gave a thumbs up to the soldiers of the city, then turned upside down, slammed down, and in the midst of wild laughter, struck his horse away, and not far away, his companions cheered loudly, and several knights came up to meet him, and gathered him back into the procession like a hero.

Plant the flag! Xu Ji took a long breath, this is a common challenge technique used by the grassland barbarians, and he didn't expect to fight with the barbarians for several years, and the Dingzhou soldiers also learned this trick. But now they are more interested in demonstrating to themselves.

There were still a large number of soldiers in the distance, and these soldiers dismounted at a great distance, and then began to straighten the queue, and a moment later, in Xu Ji's field of vision, a neat phalanx of infantry appeared. Dingzhou even equipped the infantry with camels, and being able to do this not only made Xu Ji feel envious, but also worried. Behind the infantry, wagons loaded with wagons covered by curtains, were heading this way. ro！ ~！
