Chapter Eighty-Seven: The White Dragon Legion's Expedition
The next day, the Songhai City military camp was set off on the platform, and the White Dragon Legion was about to set out, and Shaoyang, Xu Shu, and others were all present. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The White Dragon Legion in the audience was ready to go, Zhao Yun was wearing a silver helmet and white armor, holding a bright silver gun, and riding a white horse at the forefront of the team.
Zhang Fei rode a black horse, half a horse behind Zhao Yun, and the dark armor was supported, but it seemed that his dark skin was only a healthy red copper.
Guo Jia was also offstage, riding a white horse, not wearing armor, just a light suit.
Five hundred cavalry followed, and the cavalry sources were all Zhang Fei people and other types of troops with a foundation, plus the role of light cavalry talismans, five hundred of them all reached the strength of first-class warriors or above.
The 3,000 infantry fought in three columns according to the arms, they were all carefully selected elites, the weakest also had first-class and mid-level strength, hundreds of second-order soldiers, and dozens of second-order troops.
"The werewolves are about to invade on a large scale, and the people of the Northern Wilderness will face the threat of death, and the White Dragon Legion will go to the three cities of Yangguan to help defend against the werewolves, and there is a long way to go......" Shaoyang's gushing pre-war mobilization blurted out, saying that the soldiers were enthusiastic, of course, this was all prepared for him by Xu Shu, he was just reading from the book.
Speaking of the back, Shaoyang's heart was also completely devotive, and he gradually forgot the text prepared by Xu Shu and said his heart.
"Maybe some of you will never be able to return here, but the sacrifice of each of you is worth it, because it is the sacrifice of one of you that has brought the safety of thousands of people, and you must also believe that under the leadership of General Zilong, you will defeat the people of the werewolves guarding the three cities of Yangguan with the least losses. ”
Shaoyang lifted a bowl of wine, spilled it on the ground, and then slammed it on the ground, breaking the porcelain bowl.
"When you return victoriously, Lone will prepare the best wine for you, and you will not return if you are not drunk"
"Let's go!" Zhao Yun gave an order, and took the lead, followed by Zhang Fei and Guo Jia, and the army turned around and followed.
The army traveled far away, in addition to the soldiers of the White Dragon Legion, there was also a baggage team accompanying them, and several families of the Xu family also sent clansmen who were familiar with the situation to accompany them.
The White Dragon Legion headed all the way towards the three cities of Yangguan, and the Tuntian Legion soon stationed in the border forest, building fortifications on the only road that was easy to pass.
The advantage of the werewolves lies in the cavalry and number, and under the leadership of the ban, the Tuntian Legion dug many potholes in the road and arranged traps to hinder the wolf cavalry charge.
"Your Majesty, you see, we have built three lines of defense here, and with the loss of the advantage of wolf cavalry, with the strength of the Guards Legion and the Tuntian Legion, we have full confidence to block the werewolves from the territory of Songhai City. ”
Five thousand people were put into the fortifications, and it only took one day to complete the task, and Yu Ban led Shaoyang to inspect, "The rest only need to be reinforced and supplemented by some of them." ”
Shaoyang was very satisfied with the efficiency of the Tuntian Army, praised Yu Ban, and stood on the earthen city wall, looking to the northwest.
"I wish Zilong and the others all the best. ”
Now that he is ready, Shaoyang no longer worries about the defense of Songhai City, and the only thing that can not be assured is the expeditionary White Dragon Legion.
At this time, the White Dragon Legion led by Zhao Yun had already arrived outside the nearby Donghe City, but what was waiting for them was not a warm welcome.
An army of more than 3,000 people was dispatched, and the movement was naturally small, and Donghe City found it from afar, and when the White Dragon Legion approached, the city gate had already been closed, and the city wall was crowded, and all the garrisons of Donghe City were all there, beware of the White Dragon Legion.
When the city lord of Donghe City heard the report of the guards, he hurried to the city tower, looked at the army outside the city, and suddenly became so frightened that his legs were weak, and if it weren't for the guards around him, he would have collapsed to the ground.
After all, the garrison captain was born in the army, and his courage and knowledge were higher than those of the city lord, and he suggested beside the city lord of Donghe City:
"City lord, don't panic, you see that the army outside the city is a human race, not an orc, and seeing that they are well-equipped, there are hundreds of cavalry, and they are definitely not bandits, it should be that regular army passing by, ask about the situation first. ”
After being reminded by the garrison captain, the panic of the city lord of Donghe City suddenly calmed down, and his eyes regained a trace of brilliance, even if he was relieved a lot, the city lord of Donghe City was still a little scared, and he didn't dare to stretch out his head to ask, so he pushed the garrison captain.
"Ask, ask where they came from. ”
"Cowardly. The garrison captain cursed in his heart, shook his helmet to make sure that it was tightened, and then walked to the battlements and shouted outside the city: "Who are you?"
"E, the guy upstairs quickly open the city gate, grandpa, I am from Songhai City, the werewolf army is about to attack, and I am ordered to come to help you defend the city. Zhang Fei roared violently.
The White Dragon Legion rushed all the way without the slightest delay, but they didn't expect that Donghe City not only did not greet them enthusiastically, but also treated themselves as enemies, Zhang Fei would not give them a good face.
"Mom~" The city lord of Donghe City was frightened by Zhang Fei's earth-shattering roar, and really sat on the ground.
"Songhai City, what legion?" The garrison captain only felt a buzzing sound in his ears, and quickly covered his ears, only hearing part of the content, and did not figure out the specific identity of this army, but he could probably guess some.
In recent months, he has heard a lot about the reputation of Songhai City, the third prince was demoted to the city lord, defeated the werewolves, suppressed bandits in the wilderness city, and delicacies in Tianfu.
"Are you from the Third Highness of Songhai City?" the garrison captain had to stick out his head again and asked the city.
Zhang Fei was yelling a few more words, but was stopped by Zhao Yun, and Guo Jia on the side teased: "Yide, you better stop yelling, in case the city lord hiding behind is frightened, we really can't enter Donghe City." ”
As soon as Zhang Fei wanted to refute, he consciously shut up, the three of them had strong divine senses, and what happened on the city tower naturally couldn't hide it from them.
"We are the White Dragon Legion under the command of the Third Highness, please open the city gate and let me wait to enter the city to discuss in detail. Zhao Yun came forward to communicate with the garrison captain.
"Do you have a certificate?"
"This thing proves who we are. Zhao Yun took out an animal skin and threw it up to the city tower, it was Zhao Yun's letter of appointment, which was covered with Shaoyang's city lord seal and prince's seal.
"Wait a minute. The captain of the garrison took the hide and brought it to the lord of the city for him to confirm.
"It's true. The city lord of Donghe City looked at it carefully, nodded and confirmed, the prince seal letter he had not seen, but the city lord seal himself had it, except for the different names of the city, the other places were exactly the same.
"Do you want to let them into the city?"
"Let's, if you don't let it, what if someone comes in? Can you hold it?" The city lord of Donghe City was very knowledgeable, but he hesitated for a moment, and said again: "Let's discuss, let's just say that it is inconvenient for the army to enter the city, and only let a few generals come in." ”
The garrison lieutenant naturally acted on orders.
