Xu Fang's face suddenly sank, and he shouted angrily: "How many people are there in the army of Datong County? Why did the soldiers come to the city before they learned the news?"

The herald's body trembled slightly: "Returning to the general, the other party should have five thousand to six thousand in number, except for a few scouts, the rest are infantry." I'm afraid all of our scout generals outside will be killed by them. ”

Xu Ding actually knew the situation of those soldiers outside, and there was no problem in monitoring and suppressing the people, but it was not very realistic to rely on them to monitor the movements of the Datong army.

He snorted coldly: "This Datong County doesn't know whether to live or die, we don't attack them, and we dare to come over." ”

"Huang Zhenren, let's go out and see, what kind of person is from Datong County, who actually has the courage to do so!"

Huang Fengdao's face was not good, he just said that it was impossible for people from Datong County to step into Fenglai County half a step, who knew that people would come immediately, and thousands of people came, and they went directly to Fenglai County!

He nodded, and his voice was a little cold: "It's okay! Since the people from Datong County are here, then don't leave! Poor Dao will let them see the power of the Three Turns Yin Yang Array!"

"Six thousand generals, it should be the entire strength of Datong County, the black horse battalion, it is estimated that it is nearby, General Xu, please send people out of the city to find them. As long as these soldiers and horses are destroyed, Datong County will be in the bag, and it will be desirable. ”

Xu Ding answered, and left the official office with Huang Fengdao, and sent soldiers and horses to the city gate.

At first, Xu Ding and Huang Fengdao people, when they heard the news of Datong's attack, they didn't think so.

Defending the city usually has a great advantage, even if there are only 5,000 people and horses on the side of Fenglai County, it is not easy to take down the city, not to mention that there are 30,000 people in the city who are ready to transport rice and grain!

The Southern Barbarian Army and the Yellow Turban Army joined forces, and hundreds of thousands of troops were unable to capture Qinzhou City, which had only 100,000 troops, because Qinzhou soldiers and horses had the advantage of the city wall.

Huang Feng Dao people, what he cultivates is the way of the divine soul, **** blood qi, but in the end, it is not easy to suppress the powerful four-grade Fangshi and ordinary low-grade army.

As long as you don't directly participate in the battle and stay away from the enemy army, a four-rank square warrior hiding in his own army and casting magic methods can also send out great destructive power.

The soldiers are very fast, the soldiers and horses of Datong County, when they arrived under the city, they did not take advantage of the defense in the city to launch an offensive at the first time, which made Xu Ding disdainful, how could such an army pose a threat to Fenglai County.

Moreover, all the infantry from Datong County came from Datong County, and the Black Horse Battalion did not know where, Xu Ding believed that as long as he led the cavalry of the three hundred old battalions to kill him, he would be able to kill the other party.

Until Xu Ding led 3,000 soldiers and horses to the city wall, and saw the soldiers and horses of Datong County stationed ten miles away, he suddenly felt a sigh in his heart!

Fenglai County occupies the high ground and is built, the city wall is as high as twenty meters, the line of sight is wide, and the eyesight of the martial artist of the Blood Condensation Realm is also quite amazing, and the situation of the hidden abyss guard ten miles away can be seen faintly.

The large queue reflecting the golden light instantly made Xu Ding suspicious.

As a battle-hardened general, Xu Ding knew that what reflected the golden light of the morning light was clearly a stainless steel battle armor!

Leather armor and iron armor are dull in color, and it is impossible to reflect the sunlight and dazzle people's eyes.

"How is it possible? The soldiers and horses of Datong County have so many steel armor and steel soldiers!"

Xu Ding gasped, a cold breath rose from his lumbar vertebrae, and he cried out in surprise.

But immediately, his heart became excited, and his body trembled slightly, if this bright steel armor, steel knife, etc., can be captured, what kind of wealth is it?

Huang Fengdao's face was extremely ugly, and after being silent for a long time, he said slowly: "This is not the officers and soldiers of Datong County, but the people from Changding Township!"

Xu Ding was a little puzzled: "What does Huang Zhenren mean by this? Isn't Changding Township from Datong County? How can a small Changding Township form such thousands of elite soldiers and horses?"

Huang Feng Dao shook his head, took a deep breath, his cheeks twitched, he had already lost the posture of the fairy wind dao bones, and he looked unusually dignified: "Changding Township is different from Datong County!"

"I have long heard that Chu Qianyuan, Chu River, Changding Township, has a secret method of making steel soldiers, sells a large number of steel soldiers in exchange for money, silver, rice and grain, and secretly trains soldiers and horses. ”

"I didn't expect that the output of steel soldiers in Changding Township was so amazing! I didn't expect that six or seven thousand soldiers would be trained for him!"

Xu Ding couldn't help but be stunned for a moment: "Changding Township can produce steel soldiers? Steel soldiers cherish it, and the price is amazing; if we get the help of steel soldiers, our Yellow Turban Army will definitely increase its combat strength! Since Huang Zhenren has already received the news, why didn't he notify Hu Shuai and dispatch a large army to capture Datong County?"

The Yellow Turban Army of the Mountain Tigers and the reinforcements sent by the Yellow Turban Army Headquarters are actually two formations, each with its own strategy.

At the beginning, the Yellow Turban Daoist, who was a fellow practitioner of civil and military affairs, although he told the mountain tiger about the incident of Ganning in Changding Township, but in order to avoid causing panic among the troops under his command, the news was strictly kept secret, and Xu Ding was not qualified to know the news.

Since the mountain tiger didn't tell Xu Ding the news, Huang Fengdao people would not talk to Xu Ding at this time, so as not to disturb the army's heart.

The deterrent power of the seven-grade god of war is incomparably amazing, a seven-grade god of war can even deal with tens of thousands of ordinary troops, and only those high-grade armies can suppress the fierceness of the seven-grade god of war with amazing suppression power.

Zhao Zilong, the god of war of Shu Kingdom, entered and exited seven times on the Changban slope, killing Cao Cao's army obediently, and he knew how terrible the god of war was!

If Gan Ning is lured out of the mountain, don't look at the fact that the Yellow Turban Army and the Nanban Alliance Army have an overwhelming advantage over Qinzhou City, but as long as Gan Ning joins the Qinzhou City formation, the Nanban or the Yellow Turban Army can't get a strong man of the same level, and the offensive and defensive situation of the two sides can be changed in an instant.

Such a seven-rank god of war protects Changding Township, Datong County, and the Yellow Turban Army does not know the real steel production of Changding Township, so they will not easily use force against Datong County.

The reason for this, Huang Fengdao people will not tell Xu Ding.

He looked at the steel army ten miles away with an extremely complicated expression, and muttered in his mouth: "The chaos in the world has risen, is it possible that even such characters who have lost their destiny are not willing to be lonely, reborn, and intend to fight against the general trend of the world?"

Then, his face sank suddenly, and he said coldly to Xu Ding: "General Xu, this Changding Township soldiers and horses are unusual, don't be careless, you immediately organize all the young and strong people in the city, mobilize all forces, and protect the city!"

"At the same time, light three beacon fires and send out a signal for help!"

Xu Ding was even more surprised when he heard Huang Fengdao say this.

He was only shocked that the other party had so many steel soldiers, and he was not really afraid of the other party.

Although the steel soldiers are strong, it also depends on who uses them, if they are ordinary young and strong, wearing more than 100 catties of armor, it is inconvenient to move around, let alone fight, it is not easy to wear heavy steel soldiers to attack the city at a height of 20 meters.

Steel soldiers can protect against swords, guns and arrows, but they are not invulnerable, and the rolling stones and wood that defend the city, as well as hot oil and gold juice, can deal a fatal blow to these soldiers wearing steel armor.

If the opponent's soldiers and horses are not strong, they will come to give gifts.

The other party had not yet begun to attack the city, and they did not know the quality of this steel force, so the people of Huang Fengdao asked to light the highest level of the beacon fire for help, which naturally surprised Xu Ding.

He hesitated for a moment: "Huang Zhenren, they haven't started to attack the city yet, and they lit the beacon fire, which seems to be a bit hasty." ”

Although the Yellow Turbans only have one army, they also have their own mountain forces.

When the Yellow Turban Army rose up, it was headed by the big boss of the Mountain Tiger, and several leaders under his command were also the strength of the Blood Condensation Realm, each with its own subordinate forces, and now the army is growing, and the factions are even more obvious.

If it weren't for the fact that the Mountain Tiger got the help of the Yellow Turban Army Headquarters, took a five-rank divine pill, and was promoted to the level of the fourth-grade martial sect, he would not be able to suppress those subordinates whose forces had greatly expanded.

On the other side of Shuangma County, it is the subordinates of the original second leader Flying Leopard, and Xu Xianglai is at odds, if he asks for help, he will definitely bite off most of Fenglai County's efforts to raise military rations and train recruits.

If it was not a last resort, Xu Ding would never want to ask Shuangma County to send troops to help Fenglai County.

"Huang Zhenren, Fenglai County has our 5,000 soldiers and horses, as well as 300 veteran cavalry who have experienced a hundred battles, most of them have practiced martial arts, and their horse skills are skilled, and 300 horses can be worth 1,000 black horse battalions. Are you still afraid of thousands of people in Changding Township?"

"Although this Changding Township has the advantage of armor, it is just a strong team of people formed by mountain people, what can be powerful! What's more, under Fenglai City, there is also a three-turn yin and yang array under Huang Zhenren......

Xu Ding frowned, and said with some unwilling persuasion: "If it is known by the superiors, our thousands of soldiers and horses will not be able to hold Fenglai County, and we need to ask the soldiers and horses of Shuangma County for help, I am afraid that the credit for raising rice and grain will ......"

Huang Fengdaoren's face sank, and he said coldly: "General Xu, if you knew what kind of person was standing behind this Changding Township, you wouldn't say that. ”

"What Poor Dao is worried about is that even if the soldiers and horses of Shuangma County are here, they are not the opponents of this Changding Township!"

The situation in Shuangma County is actually similar to the situation in Fenglai County, and because there is no need to guard against Datong County, there are not even a few cavalry, and three or two thousand recruits have been trained, and in the face of the army of Changding Township, there is really no advantage at all.

Xu Ding listened to Huang Fengdao's words so seriously, and his heart was also terrified.

This Huangfeng Dao person, relying on the cultivation of the four grades, has always been conceited and arrogant, even he is so dignified, Xu Ding vaguely found that there was a secret that he did not know, and he didn't dare to say much at the moment, so he immediately ordered to go down and light the beacon fire for help.

The credit is divided away, Huang Fengdao is the nominal chief official of Fenglai County, and the credit is the lion's share, and even he has to give up this great credit, which shows the seriousness of the situation.

After lighting the beacon for help, Xu Dingzi issued a series of orders, the whole army was operational, and additional troops were sent to the city wall immediately, preparing various equipment to defend the city.

Qianyuanwei marched three hundred miles in a row overnight, and when he arrived at Fenglai County, he stopped the army to rest, set up an iron pot to slaughter the fat sheep carried by the army, and ate dried meat fried noodles with mutton soup, and his physical strength quickly recovered.

Chu He sighed in his heart, the physical fitness of the people in this world is too strong, and if they are replaced by the army of the earth, after such a rapid march, it is difficult to recover their energy without three or a few hours of rest.

When the army was resting, Chu He arrived at the hills and heights, looked in the direction of Fenglai County, and summoned the captains and leaders of the army, as well as Jiao Yong and Gu Gao, two veterans, to study the matter of attacking Fenglai County.

He glanced around at everyone, and then said slowly: "Fenglai County, you are ready, I don't know what you have to attack the city?"

Jiang Wei, the deputy general, although nominally at the same level as Chu Wu, but because of his stronger strength, he is mainly responsible for training soldiers and horses, and he is even more respected by his subordinates, and everyone knows that he is the number two person in Qianyuanwei.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused on him, Jiang Wei pondered for a moment, and then said, "The last general has secretly investigated outside Fenglai City with the scouts before. ”

"This Fenglai City is in a dangerous terrain, it is on high ground, there are ballistas and trebuchets and other defensive equipment at the gates of the city, the city walls are wide, and the generals can be quickly mobilized to support each other, we are not many in number, and we can only concentrate our forces to capture one place. ”

By this time, Qianyuanwei had actually formed an army of its own, although he had not yet used the title of military rank, except for Wu Chang, the rest were called captains, but everyone knew that it was only a matter of time before Qianyuanwei became the Qianyuan Army, and Jiang Wei's self-proclaimed title was also formalized.

There are no rules, there is no circle, the army values the rank and humility the most, and Qianyuanwei is a force that attaches great importance to discipline, that is, Chu Wu and Chu He are now both subordinate and subordinate relations, not to mention Jiang Wei, the eldest brother.

Chu Wu also nodded and said, "Jiang Wei is right. Now in Fenglai County, I am afraid that there are 100,000 people, and the soldiers and horses should be about 5,000. ”

"But I learned from the villagers of Fenglai County that there are also 30,000 young and strong people concentrated in the city, ready to transport rice and grain, and once the situation is urgent, even 30,000 or 40,000 defenders can be formed. ”

Chu Yuan, Chu Heizi, Chu Mu, and Chu Shi, the four mountain bandit captains, among them, Chu Yuan's spiritual attributes are the highest, and his personality is also relatively calm.

He didn't keep anything at this time, and added: "Captain Chu, although with our military strength, it will not be a problem to capture Fenglai County, but once it drags on, it will kill and injure a large number of young people in the city, and it will not be easy to defend Fenglai County in the future." ”

"Although the Yellow Turban Army rebelled, in fact, it killed more of the rich and unkind families, and did not really take action against the ordinary people. ”

"If we kill a large number of villagers in one battle, I am afraid that it will bring a bad reputation to Captain Chu. ”

Chu He nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Jiang Wei, if you give you five hundred Hidden Yuan Wei elites, can you have the confidence to attack the city wall within the three incense sticks and occupy the important place of the city gate?"

Jiang Wei nodded heavily: "The last general will guarantee to capture the city gate within the three incense sticks!"

"However, the rolling stone and wood guarding the city, boiling oil and golden soup, ordinary warriors are difficult to resist, and the last general requests to call the elite of a hundred wood and stone bodies as the vanguard, in addition, the eight ox armor-piercing crossbow is needed to help. ”

Chu He said with a smile: "The task of attacking the city will be handed over to you! I will give you two hundred wood and stone body elites, and five Eight Ox Armor-Piercing Crossbows will also attack at the same time!"

Jiang Wei arched his hand and said, "The last general will take the order!"

At this time, Jiao Yong suddenly said: "Captain Chu, please forgive Jiao Yong for saying more, before we set up the demon army and the demon clan to fight, we were all in the camp to set up formations all over the camp and trap the demon clan who intended to sneak attack. ”

"The general of Fenglai County is a four-grade Fangshi, maybe under Fenglai County, there is a magic circle laid by Fangshi, and he has to guard against it!"

He paused for a moment, and then said, "In addition, Gan Tian's side, have you ever prepared? If you can fight under the city and try to kill these four-grade Fangshi, it will be more secure." Even if that Fang Shi didn't dare to fight, dealing with the opponent's strong man first would greatly weaken the opponent's morale. ”

Chu He was not used to the military warfare mode of this world for a while, but he didn't think about this problem, and frowned: "Fighting in battle?"

Jiao Yong said with a smile: "It is very necessary to fight, maybe the other party will take the initiative to fight, Captain Chu must think of a countermeasure." ”
