It continued into the evening, and the banquet did not stop.

After the eunuch who held the lamp lit the lamp, the huge palace directly became brightly lit and splendid.

In Huangchuan City, it is particularly conspicuous.

No one knew that outside Huangchuan City, in a dense forest, there was an iron army lurking.

After Zhao Yun found out the news, he slipped out of the city after dark.

"Lord Yu, I have already found out the whereabouts of Zhang Bangchang, in the Huangchuan Palace, they are holding a grand banquet tonight, and most of them are pseudo-Chu ministers of the three grades."

In addition, the army layout of Huangchuan City is roughly divided into two layers of defense. The person responsible for guarding the city gate is the left and right dragon martial forces. ”

"The Left Longwu Army, guarding the four gates of the southeast, northwest, and northwest, all have a battalion of troops, mainly infantry, while the Right Longwu Army is stationed in the barracks in the city, and the Left Longwu Army changes defenses."

"In addition to the left and right Longwu Army, Zhang Bangchang's left and right Shenwei Army and Shence Army, a total of 60,000 people, are stationed in the camp 5 miles east of the city, and they are starting to attack Gushi Pass."

"In addition to the defense of the city gate in Huangchuan City, Zhang Bangchang also has 3,000 Imperial Forest Army outside the palace, and these 3,000 people are all Jurchen kidnappers, and their combat effectiveness is very strong!"

"Good!" Lin Yuan nodded, the information collected by Zhao Yun was very detailed, exceeding his expectations.

He immediately asked, "How is the combat strength of the defenders in Huangchuan City?" ”

Zhao Yun replied: "The left and right dragon martial forces are Zhang Bangchang's carefully selected elite soldiers, belonging to the fourth-order heavy armored infantry, and their combat effectiveness is very fierce, but even more powerful is Zhang Bangchang's 3000 Imperial Forest Army, which is a real fifth-order heavy armored cavalry, with sufficient combat experience and strong combat awareness. ”

"It's a little tricky!" After listening to Zhao Yun's answer, Lin Yuan's brows immediately furrowed.

The left and right dragon martial armies, like Lin Yuan's cavalry, are fourth-order troops, and there are 3,000 fifth-order troops.

How difficult it should be to capture Zhang Bangchang alive and escape from the city from so many soldiers.

However, Lin Yuan is not afraid of difficulties.

Moreover, the cavalry under his command is ostensibly a fourth-order army, but with the blessing of Yuwen Chengdu, Zhao Yun, and his own BUFF, the combat power has already surpassed the ordinary fifth-order.

Yuwen Chengdu's [Brave Champion Three Armies], Soldier Attack +40%, Defense +40%;

Zhao Yun's [Seven in and Seven Out], within 6 hours, the soldier's attack power is +70%, and the defense power is +70%;

Lin Yuan's [Godslayer], Soldier Attack +20%, Defense +20%;

The skill buffs of the three people are stacked, which means that each cavalry has +130% attack and +130% defense.

The overall combat effectiveness has at least doubled.

A simple calculation, assuming that the combat effectiveness of a fourth-order cavalry is 20, and the combat effectiveness of a fifth-order cavalry is 25~30.

The fourth-order cavalry that blessed Lin Yuan's three people with the buff has a combat power of at least 40, which has far surpassed the fifth-order cavalry.

And Lin Yuan's cavalry is equipped with the best equipment, and its combat effectiveness has to be upgraded to a higher level.

While Lin Yuan was waiting, Yuwen Chengdu rode back from outside.

He also carried a human head in his hand.

"My lord, the cavalry of the Jin Kingdom has been killed, this is the leader, what is Wendi Han Tesiha, and he is a powerful general under Wanyan Zongwang. He came to Huangchuan City this time to urge Zhang Bangchang to send troops, attack Gushi Pass, and assist Wanyan Zongwang to take Luzhou Mansion! ”

Lin Yuan glanced at the head, and sure enough, it was a Jurchen.

"Wanyan Zongwang learned that Dongting Lake in the Southern Song Dynasty was defeated and his morale was damaged, so he wanted to take the opportunity to attack Luzhou Mansion?"

Luzhou Mansion (Hefei) is the north gate of the entire south of the Yangtze River.

Historically, Eastern Wu and Cao Wei have been fighting fiercely here.

Zhang Liao succeeded in this battle, and he was shocked.

The former Qin Fujian and the Eastern Jin Dynasty Xie Xuan, the famous battle of Weishui, are also in this area.

It has always been a battleground for soldiers!

Luzhou Mansion can't be lost!

Once the Luzhou Mansion was lost, the Jiankang Mansion and Yangzhou Mansion of the Southern Song Dynasty were completely exposed under the nose of the Jin State, and the Jin cavalry could enter and exit at will and trample on the south of the Yangtze River.

Attacking from Luzhou to the southwest can also invade the hinterland of Jingzhou.

Lin Yuan's Hanyang and Suizhou were exposed.

This has seriously threatened Lin Yuan's personal interests.

Lin Yuan naturally didn't want this to happen.

Therefore, it is imperative to capture Zhang Bangchang alive and destroy the plan of the puppet Chu and the Jin State!

"Tell me to go down, act on the third watch tonight, everyone hurry up and rest!"

"Yes!"

The reason why I chose to start at the third watch is because this time point is when the defending soldiers are tired, and the defense is loose and it is easiest to break through!

However, the general city has to be considered for its curfew at 9 p.m. and the city gates are closed.

"Chengdu, you immediately lead dozens of horsemen, mix into Huangchuan City, wait for the third watch, open the south city gate, raise the fire as a signal, I will lead a large cavalry into the city!"

"Yes!"

Yuwen Chengdu nodded, and then led the 50 Xiaoguo guards under his command to get on their horses and head towards Huangchuan City.

Those who stayed behind seized the time to rest.

Lin Yuan didn't fall asleep, in fact, he hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights.

This raid is a big deal.

If it can really succeed, it will be equivalent to smashing the conspiracy of the puppet Chu and the Jin State in one fell swoop and protecting the Luzhou Mansion.

Therefore, Lin Yuan didn't dare to be careless, and had to think carefully about every next step.

Don't let any small link go wrong and fall short!

Soon, the third watch has arrived.

All the cavalry mounted their horses and stepped on the night, like ghosts in the dark night, quietly approaching Huangchuan City.

When the army was less than 1 mile away from Huangchuan City, there were torches raised high on the south city gate.

"Brothers, rush with me!"

After Lin Yuan saw the signal, he raised his sword high to boost morale, and was the first to take the lead in charging and rushing towards Huangchuan City.

Kill!

The 2,000 cavalry behind him also screamed one by one.

For a while, the shouts of killing rushed to the sky.

On the sentry tower of the south city wall, the sentry of the Zuo Longwu Army froze for a moment, and when he saw clearly the dense cavalry that suddenly rushed out in the darkness outside the city, he suddenly turned pale with fright.

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!"

He shouted, and at this point, except for the night watchmen on the city wall, the rest of the soldiers had already gone down to rest.

Because everyone didn't expect that someone would sneak attack deep into the hinterland!

Sou!

One of the guards hiding in the darkness shot the sentry with a single arrow.

However, other sentinels soon found out.

Someone began to run towards the bell and drum tower, trying to ring the gong and wake up the sleeping soldiers in the city.

However, the police gong on the bell and drum tower has been destroyed.

Moreover, the whole gate tower was poured with fire oil and burned.

The wolf smoke is billowing and the fire is soaring!

Lin Yuan took the lead, and was the first to rush into Huangchuan City, directly slashing and killing a few pseudo-Chu soldiers who woke up and tried to close the city gate.

The cavalry behind him also poured into the city at a rapid pace.

Yuwen Chengdu led 50 Xiaoguo guards and walked down from the city.

"Lord, the last general has completed the task!"
