Chapter 111: Yuanyang Rebellion (1)
Four or five hundred military tents of all sizes were set up in front of the south gate of Yuanyang City, and the lunch time had passed, and the weather was getting hotter and hotter.
In the largest tent, a meeting of the top generals of the avant-garde was taking place.
The deputy commander Chen Zheng said angrily: "Our army can't enter Yuanyang City, how can it be considered a victory?"
The eight officials of the Thousand Households who were deliberating also spoke angrily.
Xuan Zhongxian did not speak. Fang Qiushui said: "As long as the Chinese army arrives, we can immediately launch an attack." ”
An official of a thousand households said: "Give me two thousand people, and I will be responsible for attacking the city tower." ”
The deputy commander said: "The siege equipment has been lost. ”
Another Qianhu official said: "According to the people who came out of the city, the ladders and stone-throwing carts we dropped were dismantled by Zhou Dongcang and transported into Yuanyang City. ”
The third thousand-household official smiled: "Zhou Dongcang, an old man in his old age, is very dishonest!"
The fourth Qianhu official sneered: "He wants so many siege equipment, does he want to attack other cities?"
At this time, from the east gate came the sound of horses' hooves, a spy came galloping on horseback, and many soldiers came out of the military tent, and they wanted to know if the enemy was coming, and when they saw that it was their own soldiers, they all hid in the tent and continued to rest.
The military system of the Great Xuanguo Army, when there is urgent military affairs, the Tanma can run in the barracks.
After the spy on horseback jumped off the horse, he directly tied the reins of the horse to the horse post, stood outside the big tent and said, "Report." Urgent. ”
The deputy commander was depressed, and when he heard the anxious voice of the spy, he became even more upset, and said loudly: "Come in." ”
The spy lifted the curtain of the big tent, strode into the tent, knelt on one knee, and said, "Hundreds of cavalry have been found a hundred miles north of Yuanyang City. ”
"Is it the cavalry of the Green Dragonguard?"
The Jiang Longwei Central Army has not yet arrived, and the Green Dragon Guard avant-garde is about to arrive.
"The situation is unknown. ”
"Revisit. ”
"Ordered. ”
Seeing that the spy was very tired, the deputy commander stopped him and said, "Well, let's go eat and drink first, and then go to the women's tent to relax." ”
"Ordered. The spy said happily.
Another spy rode his horse and galloped in, "Report." As he spoke, he jumped off his horse, handed the reins to the guard at the door of the tent, lifted the curtain, rushed into the tent, fell on one knee, and said eagerly, "Report." ”
The deputy commander sighed and said, "Please get up." Please tell me what information you have. ”
"In the early hours of this morning, the opening city was conquered by the Tyrannosaurus. ”
The city is located on the plain one hundred and eighty miles east of Yuanyang City, which is difficult to defend and easy to attack. The city was only fifty miles from the territory of the city. The Heart City between the opening city and Yuanyang City will be the next target of the Balongwei attack.
"Newspaper. The third spy came, and he knelt down on one knee at the second spy's feet and presented a letter in both hands.
The deputy commander took the letter and said, "Please get up." After reading the letter, he said, "Go back to both detectives." ”
The former Senhu official asked, "Where did you get the letter?"
The second Senhu official from before also asked, "What does the letter say?"
"This letter is a private letter written by Liu Xi, the commander of the Balong Guard, to Zhou Dongcang. ”
"Balongwei?" Xuan Zhongxian muttered to himself.
The deputy commander said: "Liu Xi said in the letter that he himself is already the first person to dominate the city, and he is the protector of the opening city and the city of his heart, and he hopes that Yuanyang City can also accept his protection." ”
"What do you mean by 'the first person in the city'?"
"He took control of the Overlord Mansion and controlled the entire Overlord. ”
"What do you mean by 'accepting his protection'?"
"It's to surrender to him. Take him as the main father. ”
Xuan Zhongxian said: Bacheng is the first city in the Great Xuan Kingdom that was commanded by Long Weidu to control the main mansion.
The head of the army took control of the chief executive of the government. When the military is in power, it will wage a war of expansion.
"Newspaper. "When the fourth spy entered the tent, he fainted. The eighth thousand-household official hurriedly held on, the seventh thousand-household official pinched the people, and the sixth thousand-household official poured cold water.
Ahem, the spy woke up, "Report." ”
The deputy commander held the spies' arm and asked, "Are you okay?"
The spy said, "It's okay. There is intelligence, and nearly a thousand Green Dragon Guard cavalry have been assembled at the north gate of Yuanyang City. ”
"It's so fast!"
Xuan Zhongxian's voice was low, and he said: "This thousand cavalry is the only light cavalry in Greentown, and the equipment is not very good, but the cavalry is one in a thousand warriors. ”
The deputy commander looked at Xuan Zhongxian's "iron face" and asked, "What do you think of the envoy? Will the Green Dragon Guard attack us?"
"Yes. Xuan Zhongxian said: Where I am, they will attack.
The deputy commander panicked: "Our army is newly defeated, and it is estimated that it will not be able to meet the battle." ”
Several Qianhu officials began to argue. When a group of people are together, there are very few times when they agree on the same page.
"Newspaper. "A Chinese scout has arrived.
The deputy commander had calmed his heart, he took a few steps, picked up the scout who was about to salute, and said, "Please speak." ”
"The Chinese army has a secret report. ”
"Secret report?" The deputy commander saw that the spy took out a small paper ball from his hair, so he hurriedly put it and caught it, put it in the palm of his hand and unfolded it, and after reading it carefully, he pinched it into a small paper ball, and he said to the previous Qianhu official: "Fire fold." ”
The previous Qianhu official meeting hurriedly blew the fire fold and burned the small paper ball.
Everyone was curious: what was written on the little piece of paper? If you can't ask, you have to hold back and not ask, or guess in your heart.
Xuan Zhongxian said: Nine times out of ten, the content of the letter is related to me, or related to my great treasure.
###
At the time of Shen, the hottest period of the weather passed.
Ten miles away from the north gate of Yuanyang City, more than 4,000 Jiang Dragon Guard cavalry fought against 1,000 Green Dragon Guard cavalry.
Both cavalry were "standard", carrying bows or crossbows, carrying long knives or spears, and swords or swords at their waists. The two guards did not answer, and each silently placed and adjusted its own formation.
Jiang Longwei's avant-garde deputy commander Chen Zheng and the army envoy Xuan Zhongxian were still protected in the center of the 5,000 cavalry.
The Green Dragon Guard has few people, and has already set up an offensive and defensive formation, but he did not take the initiative to attack.
At dusk, the weather was already a little cooler.
More than 4,000 Jiang Longwei cavalry directly began to charge and kill after knowing that the Green Dragon Guard cavalry had no backup.
"Uh......h Woo ......" The horn of the attack sounded.
The more than 4,000 Jiang Dragon Guard cavalry were originally lined up neatly, but after they began to charge and kill, the formation was slightly loose.
The avant-garde cavalry will be greeted with a round of arrows. The Green Dragon Guards clamped their horses' bellies and sat firmly on their horses' backs, and they either drew their bowstrings or raised their crossbows flat, and their arrows "swished, swished", "poof, poof...... Shot out at a rapid pace.
One of the Jianglong Guard cavalrymen at the front screamed, his chest hurt sharply, and he fell off his horse with an arrow, he grabbed the horse's pedals and wanted to jump on the horse's back, but finally fell to the ground with serious injuries, and in an instant, he was trampled into meat by the galloping war horse behind him.
After the first round of arrows fired, more than 200 cavalrymen and more than 100 horses fell to the ground.
The second round of arrows of the Green Dragon Guard no longer obeyed the order, all of them were fired by the soldiers themselves, most of the arrows had not yet been fired, the cavalry was fast, and the cavalry at the forefront of Jiang Longwei had already contacted the Green Dragon Guard cavalry, and immediately began to fight.
Long knives, spears and flesh and blood "fight" each other, flesh and blood fly, blood flowing, shouting force, cries of injury, screams before death, the sound is amazing.
The cavalry, which had not yet made contact with the enemy, began to shoot with hidden arrows, and the arrows rained down, knocking down a large number of people, and hundreds of people on both sides were hit by arrows.
Several people struggled to get up, but were trampled to death. A few more people ran a few steps with a shout, but they were still crushed and trampled to death. Many people are directly curled up in a ball, trampled by the horse's hooves, and life and death are determined by the "horse".
The horses of the two armies met for only a short time, and then they rushed forward again.
The Jiang Dragon Guard cavalry and the Green Dragon Guard cavalry exchanged venues, and on the opponent's original position, they turned their horses' heads, and the heralds and hundred household officials shouted orders loudly, adjusting their formations, and soon both armies stabilized their positions.
Chen Zheng, the deputy commander of Jiang Longwei's avant-garde, and Xuan Zhongxian, the envoy of the army, were still protected in the center of the cavalry.
More than 800 corpses were left in the clearing between the two armies, several others wailed in pain, and one soldier had a broken leg and was covered in blood, and he lifted his upper body and crawled slowly towards his position.
The deputy commander Chen Zheng said to the herald beside him: "Blow the trumpet." ”
"Uh......h Woo......"
"Kill, kill, kill......" The Jiang Longwei cavalry began to charge for the second time.
