Chapter 204: Soldiers Descend on the City
The war horse under the crotch of the young rider is also the king of horses, but compared with the fierce horse in front of him, it is still a horse's head shorter.
This is also the trump card army in the hands of the Yellow Robe Heavenly Monarch, the three thousand cloud army iron horses, all of which are this kind of mutated fierce horses, not only stronger than ordinary war horses, but also ferocious by nature, able to trample on dead wolves and leopards, tigers and bears, and say that they are fierce beasts worthy of their name.
Thanks to the strength of this fierce horse, the Yunlu iron cavalry is wrapped in heavy iron armor, and can run long distances without worrying about the war horse being crushed by the heavy iron armor and knights, which is comparable to the prevalent armored iron cavalry in the Northern and Southern Dynasties, but the power is far more than that, and it can be used as a light cavalry.
In contrast, the war horse formed by the five thousand black dragon horses is an ordinary war horse, with the excellent armor and the blessing of the divine art of the Tianshui Dragon Monarch, the five thousand black dragon iron horsemen fought against the three thousand Yunlu iron horses, relying on the divine power and numerical advantage of the Tianshui Dragon Monarch, the two strongest iron horses of Tianshui Mansion can be equaled, and if they break away from the territory of the Tianshui Dragon Monarch, the black dragon horses will even faintly fall into the downwind.
Tianshui Longjun has coveted this Yunlu Iron Horse for a long time, especially the fierce horse that formed this cavalry, known as the Dragon Horse with the blood of ancient desolate beasts, only under the command of the Yellow Robe Tianjun, this is the only one, which has aroused the coveting of many gods, but the Yellow Robe Tianjun has an extraordinary background, and his own strength is not weak, even if the Tianshui Dragon Monarch covets it, he has not been able to do so.
And now even if it is a thousand cloud army iron cavalry, it is also quite a strong combat force, interspersed with encirclement, frontal strength, almost invincible in the field, there are three thousand black dragon cavalry and one thousand cloud army joined forces, this big war coalition side occupies the absolute initiative, there are five hundred iron horses in the hands of the Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch, against any of these two iron horses, it is the end of the whole army, and it can only be used as a ranger to explore the surroundings.
The cavalry general of the Yunlu Iron Cavalry looked at the young general opposite, nodded slightly, and a deep voice sounded from behind the mask, "My family master said that this time I will assist you in attacking the Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch! But our Yunlu Iron Cavalry does not belong to your commander, and only participates in field battles, and will choose whether to fight or retreat if necessary!"
"Don't worry about this, Deputy Commander Liu, my lord has already considered it, and he won't make it difficult for your army!" The young horseman showed a smile on his calm face, and said, his face moved, and he stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, "The high priest has a request to lead the way!"
"There's no need to talk about it!" the cavalry general on the opposite side shook his head slightly, "If you want to mobilize our Yunlu Iron Cavalry, you have my own family master's order, and the high priest's kindness is in charge!"
As he spoke, the commander turned his horse around, and his legs clamped between the horse's belly, and the fierce war horse immediately raised its hooves and galloped, returning to most of the cavalry, leaving the young horseman to stand alone on horseback.
"It's really cautious!" the young rider shook his head, turned his horse's head, and returned to his camp, "Prepare to prepare, the account will be raised soon!"
Knock knock knock!!
The dull drum sounded, and in the center of the 20,000 troops under the command of Tianshui Longjun, in a tall golden tent, an old man in a priest's robe sat at the head of the tent, this old man was also the commander of the coalition army who presided over the attack on the Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch, and the high priest under the seat of Tianshui Dragon Monarch.
Military power has always been the top priority, Tianshui Longjun will not despise it, the soldiers are all devout believers, and the generals and commanders at all levels in the army are all temple and priests in Tianshui City, and the military power is firmly grasped in their hands.
On both sides of the tent, there were envoys from the remaining two armies to participate in the discussion, among which two thousand armor soldiers and three hundred iron cavalry under the command of the blue-haired Tianjun were camped thousands of zhang outside the Tianshui Dragon Monarch camp, and three thousand armor soldiers and five hundred iron cavalry under the command of the Purple Eye Heavenly King were also camped seven hundred zhang away from the Tianshui City army, forming a triangle with each other, echoing each other from afar.
At this time, the principals of the three armies met in the tent of the commander of the army of Tianshui City and began to discuss the promotion of the account.
Although the gods gave orders and laid down the general direction, how to implement it still depends on the will of the commanders of these armies.
"The combined military strength of the two cities of Blackwater City and Chishui City is only about 10,000, and the cavalry is less than 1,000, if the city is divided and defended, the strength will be weakened, and it will be easier for our alliance to break through!" But-" The blue-robed high priest showed a trace of solemnity in his eyes that had experienced the vicissitudes of life, looked at the left and right of the big tent, and said in a deep voice: "Last night, it was reported that a cavalry rushed to Blackwater City from Huangshi Road overnight, and according to investigation, the size of this cavalry was no less than two thousand!"
"What? Huangshi Road!" said one of the generals in surprise.
"That's right, it's the Yellowstone Road between Blackwater City and Whitewater City, and the cavalry broke through the Yellowstone Road last night and successfully arrived in Blackwater City through the Yellowstone Road. The soldier in the tent said in a deep voice.
"Didn't Bai Qingtianjun make a move?" asked a general suspiciously.
"My family master also asked, but Bai Qingtianjun's answer was that Huangshi Dao did not belong to her jurisdiction, and she had no right to interfere!"
"Damn! With two thousand more troops, it won't be as easy as before to take Blackwater City!" "The general under the command of the Purple Eye Heavenly Monarch slapped the table with his big palm and said indignantly.
"You don't have to worry!" On the throne, the high priest in a sacrificial robe slowly got up and walked to the map in the center of the big tent, "Come here, everyone!"
As a group of people in charge gathered around the map, the high priest stroked his pale beard and said leisurely: "Although Blackwater City has an extra 2,000 life forces, our side still has an absolute advantage!"
"There are thousands of miles between Blackwater City and Chishui City, and the Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch is stationed in a division of troops, which will inevitably weaken the strength, and it will be even more difficult to echo each other! ”
The High Priest said, stretching out his palm and casting a shadow over Blackwater City on the map.
"The city of Blackwater City is strong, and a strong attack is the next strategy, and now our army is 30,000, and the iron cavalry is 5,000, and the strength is several times that of the enemy, so we should overwhelm it with momentum!"
"Next, the commander will lead 20,000 troops to be stationed outside the city of Heishui City, and at the same time send iron cavalry to start cleaning all the strongholds of the towns outside the city, all the people in them will be plundered, and if they do not obey, they will be slaughtered!
"And you wait, General Huang and General Zhao, the two of you form a coalition army, join forces, and station in Woniupo, be sure to cut off possible reinforcements from Chishui City, can you do it?"
"High Priest, don't worry, the benefits of my Jingshui City armor are enough to deal with Chishui City!" said the general under the command of the Purple Eye Heavenly King with his head held high.
"High Priest, please rest assured, my two thousand elite green armor soldiers in Qingshui City are enough to block the reinforcements of Chishui City, and they will not disturb the High Priest's plan!"
"Okay!" the high priest smiled and said, "But if you two sides fight separately, it is easy to be broken by each other, so this commander requires you to camp with each other no more than a thousand zhang, echoing each other, forming a corner, this time blocking the reinforcements of Chishui City is a great achievement!"
"Counselor Zhou!Counselor Zheng!" the high priest suddenly shouted.
"Humble duty!" said two middle-aged scribes.
"This time, you will follow the armies of Qingshui City and Jingshui City to garrison with the army, and convey the military orders of the commander at any time!" the high priest said solemnly.
"Humble and orderly!" These two middle-aged men who look like scribes are actually two temple Zhu in Tianshui City, and when the army marches, they can communicate with each other with the help of divine power and convey news, and the high priest will send these two temple Zhu into the two armies, which can be regarded as strengthening the overall control.
There is also a layer of monitoring these two armies, and the high priest would rather divide his troops into battle than mix with these two armies.
Although the four families have joined forces now, but for many years, no one trusts anyone, and even the garrison camp is stationed separately, far apart, isn't it just in case? Even the Yunlu Iron Cavalry of Weishui City is not close to the Tianshui City camp at all, it can be seen that this time the coalition forces are in harmony, and they are only temporarily united, and after defeating the Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch, it is estimated that the situation has changed again.
Soon, under the auspices of the high priest of Tianshui City, the coalition army was divided into three, of which the 20,000 troops of Tianshui City began to march towards Heishui City, and the armies of Qingshui City and Jingshui City joined forces, with a total of 5,000 troops and 800 iron cavalry stationed in the Woniupo outside Chishui City.
At the request of the High Priest, the remaining 1,000 Yunlu Iron Cavalry were also negotiated by Tianshui Longjun and stationed in Fenghu Town, thirty miles away from Baishui City, to guard against external reinforcements that might arrive from the direction of Baishui City.
"Hehe! The Fire Eyebrow Heavenly Monarch is so courageous that he actually looted all the grain and grass in the surrounding towns, leaving only a large number of people to throw there!"
"It's bait, but the old man has to swallow it!" the high priest raised his head and ordered left and right: "Send the order to go down and escort the 30,000 people captured near Blackwater Town to Blackstone Town and imprison them temporarily!"
"After collecting the nearby grain and grass, Blackwater City can support it for at least half a year, if you are bent on defending it, the old man will have to pay a heavy price if he attacks it!
The High Priest tapped his fingers lightly, his eyes full of groaning.
"Tianshui Longjun wants to take Benjun under the knife, but I'm afraid that he doesn't have that good teeth, and in the end, he broke off one of his teeth, and his head broke and bleed!"
In Chishui City, a majestic man with red eyebrows in a fiery red python robe sat on the throne, looked down at the subordinates below, and said impassionedly.
"Tianshui Longjun dispatched an army of 20,000 and 3,000 iron horses, looking at the momentum, but where does the grain and grass come from?
Huomei Tianjun sneered and said: "I must have done a battle with Tianshui Dragon Monarch, but not now! ”
"Tianshui Longjun has always been stubborn and self-serving, relying on his own strength to run rampant, this time this time I will let Tianshui Longjun teach him a long lesson!"
