In the next few days, the Lord's Mansion fell into a long-lost calm, Yang Xiu was on the line at two o'clock every day, and the Lord's Mansion and the Garrison Mansion ran at both ends. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

The positions of the two deputy commanders of the garrison mansion also came to fruition, Gu Chen and Shang Ming finally stood out, and overwhelmed everyone with the cultivation of the upper bronze, and at the same time, they were also ordered by Yang Xiu to rectify the garrison mansion.

For these two people, Yang Xiu categorically did not dare to be gullible, on the one hand, he called Yang Ping back from Ningzhen and asked him to secretly investigate Gu Chen and Shang Ming, on the other hand, Yang Xiu himself served as the commander of the First Rank Corps, and was personally responsible for the training of the Corps.

After a few days, a sudden letter broke the silence one night.

After Yang Xiu finished reading the letter, he sent someone to call everyone, while he paced back and forth in the study with a serious expression.

"Sit down." Yang Xiu looked at the few people who came in one after another and said calmly.

Except for Lu Changfeng's accident, the more important people in Gray Pigeon Harbor have arrived, and even Gao Lao rushed over.

"Tomorrow morning, the fleet of the Dongyi people will raid Grey Pigeon Harbor, let me know what you think."

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know the bottom of my heart, so I naturally don't dare to speak.

"Dare to ask the young master if you know the scale of the Dongyi army this time?" Yang Zhicai was the first to speak.

"There are nearly 100 ships of all kinds and more than 10,000 troops."

Hearing this, everyone below had solemn faces, an army of 10,000 was a catastrophe for the Gray Pigeon Port, and the actual combat strength in Yang Xiu's hands was only 3,000 men and horses, and it was difficult to directly face the army of the Dongyi people.

"From now on, all the 1,000 men and horses of the garrison will be handed over to Gu Chen and Shang Ming to form the Second Infantry Regiment."

"Shang Ming is the right, Gu Chen is the deputy, and he is directly under my jurisdiction." With a wave of his hand, Yang Xiu cut off Chengzong's military power and promoted the two newcomers.

Yang Xiu had to do this, the big war was imminent, and the impact of the unstable factor of Chengzong would naturally be reduced to the nearest level.

"Yang Ping is the deputy commander of the First Step, acting commander."

"Thank you, sir!" The three of them responded respectfully, and Chengzong stood aside silently.

"Chengzong recruited some new soldiers on his own, and the garrison will continue to operate."

"My subordinates understand."

"Uncle Cai, Elder Gao, the stability in the city depends on the two of you!" Yang Xiu turned to look at Yang Zhicai and Gao Yang, and said sincerely.

In any case, these two have always been the mainstays of Gray Pigeon Harbor, and the reason why Yang Xiu was able to let go of his hands and feet was that Yang Zhicai and Gao Yang made a lot of efforts.

"The two of us will definitely do our best to share the young master's worries." Gao Yang and Yang Zhicai glanced at each other and said in unison.

"Yang Ping, the three of you stay, and the others will disperse." Yang Xiu didn't leave a few more people, called the names of Yang Ping and the others, and signaled that the others could leave.

Yang Zhicai and the others all retreated, and Yang Xiucai spoke again.

"Yang Ping, find a few reliable people to keep an eye on Chengzong."

"Commander? Young master, this is ......" Yang Ping looked dazed, not understanding what Yang Xiu meant.

"Just do it, I suspect that he, like Yang Hu and Zhao Quan, also has problems."

"Subordinates obey." Yang Ping was silent and replied.

"Shang Ming, do you know why I want you to be the commander of the Second Infantry Regiment?" Yang Xiuyou looked at Shang Ming, a newcomer who had just joined the high-level of Gray Pigeon Port for a few days.

Shang Ming has a slender figure, a superior appearance, and his strength is not weak, and he has put the garrison in order in a few days, which can be regarded as Yang Xiu's unexpected gain.

"Subordinate... Ignorance. Shang Ming was dumbfounded by Yang Xiu's sudden promotion just now, and he hadn't recovered for a while, and he was a little confused.

"Because your origin is very clean, and so is Gu Chen, so I will reuse you."

"I hope you two don't let me down." Yang Xiu's words had an inexplicable meaning, and he looked at Shang Ming and Gu Chen with serious eyes.

"My subordinates must do their best to share the young master's worries."

"The subordinates will definitely live up to the young master's expectations." Shang Ming and Gu Chen were not fools, so they naturally understood what Yang Xiu meant, and hurriedly expressed their loyalty.

"You go back and inform me, gather at the military academy in the middle of the night, and wait for my order." Yang Xiu said.

"Subordinates obey."

Shang Ming and Gu Chen also retreated in turn, leaving only Yang Ping.

"The news from Ningzhen has been sent?"

"I delivered it yesterday, and this time must have arrived."

"I hope that man doesn't let me down."

"Don't worry, young master, I've arranged everything." Yang Ping smiled with confidence on his face.

"Let's go back and rest first."

......

In the middle of the night, Yang Xiu took Yang Ping to the east of Gray Pigeon Harbor early.

Between the port of Grey Pigeon Harbor and the city is an open flat land with no obstructions, and there are no walls on the periphery of the city, only a few low houses.

But now the houses have been fortified, all kinds of obstacles have been piled up on the perimeter, and the road into the city has been sealed with huge stones.

The Gray Pigeon Harbor has basically been demolished into ruins, and since Yang Xiu came back, he asked that the Gray Pigeon Harbor be demolished first, leaving no resources for the Dongyi people.

In essence, this Dongyi army went on an expedition and was seriously short of supplies, so Tanaka Sakura sent a letter to agree to Yang Xiu's request.

However, out of the 10,000 army this time, the army of the Tanaka clan was only 3,000 people, and the rest belonged to the Yamajie clan, another major clan on Dongyi Island.

Sakura Tanaka assured that the forces of the Tanaka clan would not attack Grey Pigeon Harbor and that they would remain at sea and would not make any moves.

However, what the Yamajie clan would do, Tanaka Sakura could not guarantee, so she could only inform Yang Xiu in advance, saying that the Yamadai clan would inevitably raid Ning Town.

Yang Xiu had long expected that this matter was not so simple, and Tanaka Sakura's letter also explained this, the Gray Pigeon Harbor was going to directly face the army of the Seven Thousand Mountain Rank Clan, and the slightest mistake would be a river of blood in the Gray Pigeon Harbor.

Yang Xiu integrated the army in the middle of the night and guarded the front line early, in case the Dongyi people would attack Gray Pigeon Harbor at night.

"Nervous?" Yang Xiu glanced at Yang Ping beside him and asked calmly.

"I'm a little nervous, my subordinates have never experienced such a big battle." Yang Ping rubbed his hands and said with some hesitation.

"I'm nervous too." Yang Xiu sighed.

From where Yang Xiu stood, he could clearly see the outline of the port area.

The moonlight was dazzling, lighting up the night of Grey Pigeon Harbor, and the sound of cicadas was unusually harsh at this time.

The plain from the port area to the city is just a few hundred meters away, like a moat, cutting off the connection between the two sides, and Yang Xiu can't figure out the situation in the port area for a while.

Suddenly, a flash of fire rose from the direction of the port, which was extremely obvious in the dark night, and Yang Xiu saw it in an instant.

"It's coming! Inform down, the first step is to prepare for the Corps! Yang Xiu squinted, touched the belief behind it, and then drew his long sword.

Yang Ping turned around and went out and drank a few times.

Then the area began to get busy, and after the sound of footsteps and shouts, it gradually calmed down.

If you listen closely, you can clearly hear the sound of rapid breathing and the sound of small footsteps.

Obviously, these recruits who are on the battlefield for the first time can't restrain their inner tension and fear in the face of the unknown Dongyi army.

"There is news from the front, almost ten ships look, and the number of torches will not exceed two thousand, and they are touching our side." Yang Ping rushed in and hurriedly said.

"Only two thousand?" Yang Xiu asked solemnly.

"There are no other ships in sight of the harbor."

"Prepare the brethren." Yang Xiu also has no good impression of Dongyi people, since it is fat meat sent to the door, there is absolutely no reason not to eat it.

The city was still dark and quiet, and the eastern port area was gradually revealing sporadic fires, which soon filled the entire port area, and finally converged into a long line of firelight, rushing towards the city.

"Ignition! Raise your shield! Advance! Yang Xiu stood on the roof and shouted.

With Yang Xiu's order, countless fires instantly lit up at the edge of the city, and a long snake formation was formed, blocking the path of the Dongyi people's advance.

The four hundred pioneers of the first army lined up in two rows, raised their iron shields and slowly marched towards the Dongyi people, and the remaining six hundred soldiers were divided into two phalanxes, followed closely behind by cats.

The Dongyi people also discovered the changes in the Gray Pigeon Harbor, and the long line of torches changed, and they also formed a horizontal row and advanced over.

The speed of advance on both sides is comparable, and the distance between them is getting smaller and smaller, and soon it will be less than 100 meters.

"Kill!" Yang Xiu shouted loudly and rushed in first!

The first step of the corps followed Yang Xiu and charged forward in a uniform manner, without the slightest disarray.

The sound of hurried footsteps also alerted the Dongyi people, and a noisy shout came from the opposite side, and they also rushed towards Yang Xiu's side.

Collision! Fell! Death!

In an instant, most of the two soldiers in the front row fell!

The two large phalanxes in the back row crossed the corpses in front and stabbed into the heart of the Dongyi army like sharp knives.

The sound of slashing and shouting is endless!

The torch that fell to the ground instantly ignited the dry weeds and trees on the ground! The battlefield lit up one fire after another, lighting up the faces of those who were fighting bloodily.

Yang Xiu's whole body was covered with blue light, which was very conspicuous in this dark night, the two armies fought in the dark night, and they couldn't distinguish between friend and foe at all, and the scattered soldiers of the first corps automatically gathered around Yang Xiu.

Shang Ming and Gu Chen each led the Second Infantry Regiment to lie in ambush on both sides, without any movement, waiting for Yang Xiu's order.

The Second Infantry Regiment was hastily rebuilt and had not undergone enough training, so it was obviously not suitable to participate in the first wave of hedging, so Yang Xiu simply arranged for them to become ambushes, just in case.

The talent bonus of Yang Xiu's legendary lord and the cloak of faith have greatly increased the overall strength of the first step legion, so Yang Xiu dared to rely on a thousand people and two thousand Dongyi troops to hedge!

Yang Xiu looked like a god of death, and with a sword, he cut off the heads of the Dongyi people who rushed in front of him, kicked away the remaining bodies, and continued to sprint forward with the first step of the army.

The other two phalanxes rushed forward less than a hundred meters before they encountered great obstacles and could no longer move forward.

"Assemble!" Yang Xiu obviously expected this scene, the number of people on the opposite side was superior, and it was easy to fall into the encirclement when there were few people and many people.

The three roads suddenly changed direction and converged towards the center of the battlefield.
