The army went north, in order to save marching time, after discussing with Cheng Qianfan, Bai Yang, Yuwen Injury, etc., Ji Qingchen decided that 60,000 cavalry would take the land route, 40,000 foot soldiers would take the water route to Jiangzhou, and then take the land route from Jiangzhou to Caozhou City. In this way, the army was separated when it left the King's Landing, and the cavalry was still led by Ji Qingchen, and the foot soldiers were led by Cheng Qianfan.

After marching like this for three days, the army left King's Landing City, looking at the 60,000 troops marching around, Ji Qingchen's heart couldn't help but start worrying, because he was afraid that at this time, the Beirong cavalry had sent the looted materials back to the outside of the pass, and had returned to Caozhou City again, preparing to attack Caozhou City? If his own people hadn't arrived in Caozhou, Caozhou would have been broken by the Beirong army, which was not what Ji Qingchen wanted to see.

It is said that Caozhou City is tall and strong, and there are 100,000 troops in the city to defend it, and the Beirong army is all cavalry, not good at attacking fortified positions, and attacking the city is not their advantage, so at least when the Beirong army is not ready enough siege equipment, it is not so easy for them to break through Caozhou, but Ji Qingchen is still very worried, the key is that he is afraid that the generals in Caozhou City are too incompetent, and in the face of the fierce Beirong army, he wants to set off and flee like the first battle of Yanmen, because Yanmen Pass is not as tall and strong, and there are 100,000 defenders, Doesn't Beijon have large siege engines? Didn't you change the infantry with 20,000 cavalry, and it only took two battles to capture Yanmen Pass?

So after thinking about it, Ji Qingchen still summoned Bai Xiangcheng, Bai Yang, and Yuwen Injury to his side to discuss. The final result was that he personally led the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the White Cavalry Battalion north along the path to Caozhou, and let Bai Yang and Yu Wen Wound lead the remaining 60,000 cavalry to Caozhou City as soon as possible.

The soldiers are fast, and they both understand this truth, and they both understand it!

Therefore, the two of them carried out Ji Qingchen's order very well, and waited until Ji Qingchen left, so that the army only rested for half a day in Hangzhou and continued to march north.

And Ji Qingchen, who broke away from the brigade, only led 1,200 soldiers from the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the White Cavalry Battalion, and it took only three days to kill Caozhou City.

Now Caozhou City has been under martial law, and the city gate is only open for three hours a day.

When Ji Qingchen led the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the White Cavalry Battalion to Caozhou City, it happened to be Shen Shi, but the gate of Caozhou City had been closed. The defenders of the city were overwhelmed by the fact that they saw a line of iron cavalry rushing to the city, and immediately called the general defending the city to the city tower.

The general on the city tower glanced at the cavalry who was approaching Caozhou City step by step, and he was also very frightened. After all, in the past few days, there have been many Beirong cavalry outside Caozhou City, and many defenders on the city tower have been shot and killed by the negligence of the defenders. However, when Ji Qingchen and his 1,200 elite cavalry arrived at the city of Caozhou, even if the defenders in the city saw the outfit of the cavalry battalion and Ji Qingchen in a black royal robe, they still did not dare to open the city, because there were still 400 Beirong cavalry in Ji Qingchen's elite cavalry.

"The Governor of Northern Liao, the Grand Governor of the Northern Liao Xingying, and the King of Northern Liao are here, why don't you open the city gate quickly!" Li Changzheng stepped forward and shouted.

The general on the city tower heard Li Changzheng's reprimand, just glanced at Ji Qingchen under the city, hesitated, he felt that he couldn't make the decision in this matter, so he sent someone to send the news to the temporary Northern Liao Xingying Xingyuan camp in Caozhou City, he said loudly, "Please wait a moment, the last general has already sent someone to deliver the news to the chief manager, and as long as the chief manager is confirmed, the last general will open the door immediately." ”

Seeing the defenders on the city wall as if they were facing a great enemy, Ji Qingchen's eyes showed a look of disdain. His own 1,200 cavalry frightened the defenders with an army of 100,000 into such a situation, which shows how bad the combat effectiveness of the defenders in Caozhou City is.

Can you expect these remnants to defeat the Beirong cavalry? Thinking of this, Ji Qingchen could only shake his head helplessly and sigh, with such an army, let alone 100,000, even if it is estimated that one million is not enough for 200,000 Beirong iron horses.

Just when Ji Qingchen was thinking like this in his heart, a guard suddenly appeared on the city tower, he was about thirty years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a bright red fine iron armor, which made his whole person look majestic and mighty. When this general appeared, he heard the general of the defenders in the city say to him just now, "General Meng, it's them." ”

The red-armored general looked down at the city, and his eyes met Ji Qingchen's gaze, and his body was shocked, because he found that the eyes of the young man in the royal robe under the city were like knives, and his eyes hurt a little. He immediately retracted his gaze, took a deep breath, and asked loudly, "Is the king of Northern Liao under the city?" ”

"That's right! Open the gates! Li Changzheng said coldly, they had been waiting for nearly half a pillar of incense under the city, and he was very angry that the Caozhou defenders treated Ji Qingchen like this.

However, as soon as Li Changzheng finished speaking, before General Meng on the city tower could answer, he heard a soldier in the city shout, "Look! Beijung cavalry—"

"Ah—it's the Beijung cavalry—" The defenders of the city also saw the first-line iron cavalry that appeared in the performance, and shouted in horror.

"Your Highness——! Eight hundred Beirong cavalry appeared behind us, and they were killing Caozhou City! At this time, the scout in the Xiao cavalry camp rode to Ji Qingchen's side and replied.

Suddenly, the Beirong cavalry appeared, and the red-armored general on the city tower was a little hesitant, he just asked just now, but he didn't dare to determine Ji Qingchen's identity, and now the Beirong cavalry appeared outside the city, which opened the city rashly, I'm afraid - he was a little hesitant when he thought of this.

Ji Qingchen, who was riding on a horse, glanced at General Hongjiameng on the city tower, knew the other party's thoughts, and his face showed disdain, so he heard him say loudly, "Brothers, we just arrived in Caozhou City, and the Beirong cavalry sent us, what do you say?" ”

"Kill them!" The eight hundred cavalry battalions roared, and their fighting spirit was high.

"Good! Kill them——! Ji Qingchen said loudly, "Bai Xiangcheng, Huang Taiji, prepare to fight!" ”

"No!" Bai Xiangcheng and Huang Taiji received the order.

Ji Qingchen, who was riding on a horse, moved his eyes to the tower of Caozhou City like a knife, and reprimanded angrily, "You guys on the city tower who don't have eggs, just know that you will lose the face of our big Yan Erlang, a group of cowards will take a good look today and see how this king killed the thief." ”

With that, he ignored the anger on the faces of the defenders on the castle tower and the murderous intent in the eyes of the red-armored general, and rode straight to the front of the team.

At this time, the Beirong cavalry had slowed down the pace of the attack, and there were only six hundred steps left from the Xiao cavalry battalion.

Gradually, the Beirong cavalry approached the cavalry camp, and when the distance between the two sides was only 300 paces, they stopped.

At this moment, both sides can see the expressions on each other's faces.

It's just that seeing the chief general of this Beirong cavalry, Rao is Ji Qingchen was not surprised no matter how calm he was, because the other party was none other than the Beirong cavalry who attacked him outside Ningzhou City.

It's really not like they don't get together! Seeing Tuobani's moment, Ji Qingchen thought so in his heart.

Tuobani, the deputy commander of the Yellow Banner, also didn't expect that the commander of the Yan Army on the opposite side would be Ji Qingchen, and the moment he saw Ji Qingchen, he thought of his severed left arm, and gritted his teeth. Today he received a report from the scout that there was a Yan cavalry under the city of Caozhou, the number was about 1,000, and it seemed to be from Hangzhou, he guessed that it might be a messenger or a messenger sent by the Yan court, so he ordered 800 soldiers and horses to come and see, ready to destroy this Yan cavalry in one fell swoop, but he didn't expect to meet his big enemy!

At this moment, Tuobani called Providence! Providence!

"Your Highness, we meet again!" Tuobani said with a smile, but his smile was full of cold murderous intent.

"I didn't expect to see the general here, this king is so happy, and he can make meritorious service again today!" Ji Qingchen also said with a smile, with murderous intent in his eyes.

"Your Highness, now that Yunzhou has gathered 200,000 troops from Beirong, do you think that only the 100,000 remnants of Caozhou City can defeat my Beirong's 200,000 iron cavalry?" Tuobani said proudly.

"If you don't fight, how can you know the way?" Ji Qingchen countered, "Just like when I was outside Ningzhou City, this king didn't expect that the five hundred yellow flags that two hundred forest riders could kill would lose their armor. ”

"You-Ji Qingchen, don't be too arrogant-" Suddenly Ji Qingchen mentioned the shame of three months ago, Tuobani was furious, and he roared violently, "Hmph-let me meet you today, just so that Tuobani will be ashamed!" ”

He moved his gaze to Huang Taiji and the four hundred Beirong cavalry beside Ji Qingchen, a little surprised, but his face showed disdain, and said, "You are Huang Taiji?" I heard that you surrendered to the Yan people, but I really didn't expect it to be true. ”

Huang Taiji was silent!

Tuobani, one of the Beirong cavalry, no longer talked nonsense, and when the enemy met, he couldn't bear to kill Ji Qingchen to vent his anger, so he gave the order to attack.

The distance of three hundred paces was exactly within the range of the bow and arrow, and at the same time that Tuobani gave the order to attack, Huang Taiji also gave the order to attack the four hundred white cavalry battalions beside him. Four hundred Beirong cavalry took the order, and rode to meet Tuobani's eight hundred yellow flag elite horsemen. And the eight hundred cavalry battalions bent their bows and arrows under the command of Baixiang City, and the first round of arrow rain had already been shot. Eight hundred arrows shot like a torrential rain at the Beirong Yellow Banner elite soldiers, the Beirong cavalry did not expect the short-distance cavalry Zhan Ji Qingchen to dare to adopt such an attack tactic, and suddenly rushed to the front of the cavalry in the arrow, and fell more than 100 people at once, and continued the second round of arrow rain to continue to shoot at the Beirong Elite Cavalry, and the Beirong Yellow Banner finally rushed to the front of Huang Taiji and the White Cavalry Battalion after paying more than 100 people, and the two sides began to intersect with each other.

Suddenly, under the city of Caozhou, the songs of the soldiers were endless, the war horses neighed, and the screams came and went.

After the war, Meng Buge, who was called the Beirong Zhengbai Flag by Meng Buge, the strongest blade of Beirong, and the worst battle against the Beirong Yellow Flag kicked off!
