233, Fenglai offensive and defensive battles

The scorpion-tailed winged tiger flew at full speed, and in five or six hours, the Chu River flew from Qinzhou to Tianshui County.

As Chu He expected, there are not many soldiers and horses in the hinterland of Qinzhou, most of them are concentrated in Qinzhou, and the soldiers are expanded to the states and counties near Qinzhou, but when they are close to Tianshui County, there are obviously more soldiers and horses, all of which are the banners of the Yellow Turban Army, which is obviously a trend of raising troops.

In Tianshui County, the only thing that can make the Yellow Turban Army so fanfare is the Changding Army.

The Yellow Turban Army attaches great importance to Changding Township, Chu He went around in the air for a while, and found that inside and outside Tianshui County, there were more than a dozen soldiers and horses, all of which were covered by military strength and blood, and they were obviously strong soldiers who had experienced a hundred battles, and the number was not as much as thirty or forty thousand!

These tens of thousands of soldiers and horses are by no means comparable to the thousands of recruits in Fenglai County, even if they are young and strong who have been forcibly recruited, they have experienced the tragic battle in Qinzhou in recent years, and they have quickly grown into elite soldiers.

Just after breaking Qinzhou, the Yellow Turban Army mobilized a large army to besiege Datong and Fenglai counties, which shows that they hate the Changding Army so much, or they are extremely hot for the steel weapons of the Changding Army, and it seems that this battle is inevitable.

Chu He was worried in his heart, and quickly flew into Tianshui County, and saw the next team of Yellow Turban Army troops, surging towards Fenglai County like ants, and his face became more and more solemn.

Outside Fenglai County, the blood is surging, and the Yellow Turban military camp is densely packed, and the flags are hunting in the wind, and the entire Fenglai County is surrounded by the Yellow Turban Army.

Outside the city, the sound of killing soared into the sky, the bowstring vibrated and the catapult roared, and the Yellow Turban Army was launching a siege battle against Fenglai County with all its might.

From a high altitude, Fenglai County has been completely isolated from the outside world by the Yellow Turban Army and has become a lonely city, facing the siege of tens of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, obviously the situation is quite bad.

However, the protection and resilience of Fenglai City exceeded the estimate of the Yellow Turban Army, and for a long time, no one was able to cross the city wall and enter Fenglai County.

The outside of the city was littered with the remains of armor, the ground was stained black and brown with blood, and the water of the moat had turned a dark red, and it was covered with corpses, many of which were swollen and stinky, and it was clear that the siege had been going on for some time.

The moat was filled in one by one, and the city wall of Fenglai County was also blasted out of the gaps by the Yellow Turban Army's trebuchet, and countless Yellow Turban Army waved their blades and roared towards the gaps.

The archers and crossbowmen outside continued to pour arrow rain storms towards Fenglai County, and even more monks cast spells in the army, evoking strong winds and thunder, fire and rain falling stones, and launched an extremely fierce offensive against Fenglai County!

It's not that Fang Shi can't exert his combat power on the battlefield, but he is suppressed by the enemy's military strength, and his combat power is greatly reduced.

In other words, if the Fang Shi of that side takes the initiative to attack, it means that that side has an advantage, and the enemy can be suppressed from the army.

Although the strength of the Changding Army is strong, it lacks the test of bloody battles, and it barely relies on strict training to condense a first-class military strength, and above the military strength, it really cannot be compared with the elite Yellow Turban Army in a hundred battles.

Above the city, the momentum of the Changding army is strong, although the number of people is absolutely inferior, the momentum is not much worse than the Yellow Turban Army of tens of thousands of troops, a group of more than a dozen people, is trying their best to strangle the Yellow Turban Army that attacked the gap in the city, and constantly kill the Yellow Turban Army that surged up.

Where the city walls were intact, there were also countless young men running back and forth to transport supplies, and one after another Eight Ox Armor-Piercing Crossbows erupted with piercing whines, constantly firing three-edged giant arrows at the generals of the Yellow Turban Army.

Although under the siege of tens of thousands of troops, the number of eight-bull crossbows was insufficient, and it was difficult to resist the enemy army outside the city walls, but the terrible three-edged giant arrows, which were specially designed to shoot the generals of the Yellow Turban Army, brought great deterrent power to the Yellow Turban Army.

Before the battle began, the Changding army relied on the sharpness of the Eight Ox armor-piercing crossbows, and suddenly shot more than a dozen generals of the Yellow Turban Army in a row, so that the strong men of the Yellow Turban Army did not dare to show their faces, and could only drive small soldiers to attack the city, which greatly reduced the pressure brought by the siege.

The 8,000 soldiers and horses of the Changding Army, 10,000 young and strong, can withstand the attacks of more than 100,000 Yellow Turban troops in turn, and the Eight Niu Armor-Breaking Crossbow is indispensable.

It's a pity that although the Changding Army is strong in combat and has sharp armor, the number of soldiers is the biggest shortcoming.

Don't look at the Yellow Turban Army besieging the city now, there are only tens of thousands, but there are more than 100,000 scattered everywhere, constantly replacing the siege armor, replenishing the lost soldiers, no matter how sharp the Standing Turban Army is, it is also flesh and blood, under the continuous attack of the Yellow Turban Army, it can't stand it in the end.

After ten days of continuous fighting, the Changding army has suffered more than 1,000 casualties, and even the Qianyuan Guard has suffered dozens of casualties!

The combat power of the Hidden Abyss Guards is far superior to that of the ordinary army, but they appear in the most dangerous places on the battlefield to fend off stronger enemies.

There are a lot of strong people in the Yellow Turban Army, and there are many Blood Condensation Realm martial artists, and it is still possible to kill and injure the heavily armed Qianyuan Guard.

I have to say that the tactics of the Yellow Turban Army are still effective, and even the iron men can't stand the offensive with such fatigue.

In order to raze the two counties of Datong and Fenglai in one fell swoop, the Yellow Turban Army made a heavy investment, and even gave up the great interests of Qinzhou City, and the 500,000 Yellow Turban Army dispatched 200,000 elites to come over.

The remaining 300,000 elites, 100,000 were stationed in Qinzhou City to train recruits, and 200,000 were as the Southern Barbarian Army attacked places outside Qinzhou, equating the status of Datong and Fenglai with the territory outside Qinzhou.

The mountain tiger doesn't know what it feels like, in fact, although his current authority, although extremely strong, can no longer control the Yellow Turban Army, and the power is controlled by the six-rank power sent by the Yellow Turban Army headquarters.

The ones who really obey the orders of the mountain tigers are actually only fifty or sixty thousand elites.

The mountain tiger didn't know why the six-grade power from the headquarters would let him lead 200,000 elites to attack Datong and Fenglai counties, originally according to the estimation of the mountain tiger, Datong Fenglai was so important, and this six-grade power would personally lead the army to come.

But in any case, this is definitely an extremely important task, as long as the two counties are captured, the mountain tiger will definitely be able to pay more attention to the Yellow Turban Army headquarters, and can get more resources and luck, and hit the realm of the late stage of the five products in one fell swoop!

After capturing Qinzhou, the mountain tiger got amazing luck, and he got the five-grade Xuanzhen Pill given by the Yellow Turban Army headquarters, and he had broken through the realm and became the early five-grade copper furnace master!

The mountain tiger more or less knows the strength of the Changding army, an army of thousands of people, armed to the teeth, is absolutely difficult to deal with.

But the Tiger knew that the strength and number of troops were the biggest weaknesses of the Standing Army.

Even if these thousands of Changding troops are all equipped with battle armor and steel soldiers, what if everyone's strength has reached the realm of martial arts or even martial artists?

The Yellow Turban Army has experienced countless wars, many of them have made breakthroughs in the war, and with the improvement of luck, the strength is getting stronger and stronger, and it is not impossible to really ruthlessly draw out thousands of warriors and form an army of 10,000 warriors.

The Tiger believed that as long as he was given 10,000 elites, constantly encroached on the Changding Army, and strengthened his armor, the Yellow Turban Army would soon be able to gain complete superiority and eventually completely destroy the Changding Army.

But Guoshanhu didn't understand why the headquarters of the Yellow Turban Army attached so much importance to the Changding Army, and did not hesitate to give up the good situation in Qinzhou City, and even gave him 200,000 soldiers and horses, and asked him to eradicate the Pingding Army within three months.

When he arrived in Tianshui County and really fought with the Changding Army, the Mountain Tiger realized that it was not that the people above were too cautious, but because the Changding Army was too terrible.

The Tigers remember the first head-to-head battle with the Changding Army in the field.

According to the words of the defeated generals, thousands of Changding troops were all covered with battle armor and face armor, and there were simply no flaws on the whole body, and it was not too much to say that they were armed to the teeth.

This thousand-strong army, in the Eagle Sorrow Stream, fought hard against the elite vanguard of the 3,000 Yellow Turban Army.

A thousand Changding troops are simply invulnerable monsters, a thousand infantry actually resisted the charge of three thousand elite cavalry, the nearly seven-foot-long giant knife, so sharp that it is outrageous, invincible, a knife down, can split the Yellow Turban Army and the horse in half.

The battle only lasted half an hour, and by the time the Yellow Turban army arrived, the battle was over.

Of the 3,000 elite Yellow Turban Army cavalry, more than 2,000 were killed, and the rest fled everywhere, and less than 500 were finally recovered.

The defeat is not terrible, the terrible thing is that the three thousand elite cavalry against the one thousand Changding army is a one-sided defeat, according to the general, the army killed about three hundred people on the other side, the problem is that everyone knows, this is absolutely huge, the Yellow Turban Army can't even see a single corpse of the other party!

It was also this great battle that made the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army extremely vigilant, and had to slow down the pace of the march, giving the Changding Army the best preparations.

The Changding army contracted its forces and finally concentrated in three places, namely Fenglai County, Datong County and Changding Township.

The three strongholds echoed each other, constantly sending troops and horses to attack the Yellow Turban Army, and finally forced the mountain tigers to concentrate their forces and capture Fenglai County first.

The other soldiers and horses are strictly guarded against important places, and once the enemy in the other two strongholds is dispatched, they will give the opponent a thunderous blow!

The abacus played well, but the mountain tiger found that since he entered Tianshui County, it had become extremely unsmooth, and the army could not get any supplies in Tianshui County, not to mention, 200,000 soldiers and horses were attacked and harassed by enemy troops with a total number of only a few thousand from time to time.

Even Fenglai County, a small city with only 8,000 soldiers and horses at most, the Yellow Turban Army gathered 150,000 troops and attacked hard for ten days, but they couldn't take it!

It was only now that the Tiger realized that this Changding army was not only six or seven thousand soldiers and horses, but had a strength of fifteen or six thousand.

Normally, in front of 200,000 elites, there is not much difference between 15,000 and 6,700, but when the Changding army has the courage of one person as ten, the situation becomes very different.

The mountain tiger had to use a boiling word to deal with the Changding army, 150,000 soldiers and horses, constantly launched attacks on Fenglai County, day and night, although it was converted into twenty or thirty thousand soldiers and horses under the city wall, thirty or forty generals died, but finally exhausted Fenglai County.

In Fenglai County, thousands of young and strong people died, although the casualties of the soldiers were not much, but they were also extremely tired, and their combat power was greatly reduced.

After enduring it for ten days, the mountain tiger finally couldn't bear it anymore, and personally put on his own clothes, took hundreds of personal soldiers, went to the nearby mountain, and condescendingly looked at the city that had endured for ten days in the war and became desolate.

The tiger even saw that the beams of the houses in the city were torn down to make sasswood, and the wooden furniture was split to burn paper gold soup and boiling oil.

At this moment, the mountain tiger dispelled the idea of recruiting Chang Dingjun, although he had already imagined several times in his heart that Chang Dingjun could become his subordinate and fight for him.

Although Guoshan Tiger and Chu He have never met, they have to admire Chu He a lot, I really don't know how Chu He trained a soldier and horse who had never seen blood a few times to be so powerful, and how to make the people under his rule so desperate to work for him!

"Pass the order, the whole army will attack, and Fenglai County will be taken today!"

The eyes of the mountain tiger flashed coldly, and he said in a deep voice: "The first person to attack Fenglai County will be rewarded with thousands of gold, steel armor, the main general will be awarded to the fourth grade, and the other will be rewarded with 100 slaves, 500 cattle and horses!"

Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men, and the mountain tiger issued an order for the whole army to attack, and the generals under his command were all red in their eyes.

Money and silver are still trivial, but it is not simple for the main general to reach the fourth grade, it can be said that it is one step to the sky, and the four-grade official position is only under the mountain tiger, and it is also the highest official position that the mountain tiger can appoint.

Knowing that the Eight Ox Armor-Piercing Crossbow was infinitely powerful and could shoot the general, the generals of the Yellow Turban Army still took their own orders and led the troops under their command to launch the final offensive towards Fenglai County from all directions at the same time.

The order of the Yellow Turban Army's general attack was issued, and the Yellow Turban Army suddenly surged with momentum, and the army was soaring to the sky, and it turned into a Yellow Sky banner faintly in the void, carrying the incomparably majestic power of blood and qi, and frantically swept towards Fenglai County.

Under the influence of the military situation, the soldiers of the Yellow Turban Army all had red eyes, their expressions were like crazy, and their momentum and strength had improved a lot.

Under the various blessings of the Fang Shi, the ordinary soldiers became extremely brave, and tens of thousands of troops rushed towards Fenglai City like ants.

All of a sudden, the sky was covered with a rain of arrows, and a huge catapult smashed stones totaling thousands of tons towards Fenglai County.

Although the battle in this world did not have the cannon fire and gunpowder smoke brought by gunpowder, under the various techniques of the alchemists, it was even more vast and tragic.

It is conceivable that no matter whether the siege is successful or not, in this big battle, tens of thousands or even more people will fall on the battlefield and turn into white bones!

Jiang Wei is the chief general of Fenglai County, personally leading 2,000 Qianyuanwei and 6,000 Changding troops to defend Fenglai County.

Seeing the offensive of the Yellow Turban Army, Jiang Wei, a young general, couldn't help but feel a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

He couldn't help but think that if the second brother was in Tianshui County, how would he deal with the 200,000 Yellow Turban Army?
