Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 inforeadx;? The next morning, Shangguan Xiu led the Seventh Army Corps, left the Feng Army camp, and marched to the southwest.

This carriage was specially made, pulled by eight horses, and the interior of the carriage was large and spacious, with soft collapses, small wooden tables, tea sets, bookcases, etc., even so, it was more than enough for five or six people to sit in the carriage.

Jiang Leopard, Zhang Zhao and Lu Zhuo, the two deputy commanders, got into the carriage together, and when they saw Shangguan Xiu, the three of them knelt down, bowed down, and said in unison: "Brother Xiu (Your Highness),"

Shangguan Xiu waved his hand to the three of them, signaling that they didn't need to be polite,

He looked down at the map spread out on the low table, and said, "According to the report, the defenders of Gucheng and Qucheng are about 10,000, and the defenders of Qingcheng and Liangcheng are 20,000 each, how are you going to take these four cities?"

Jiang Leopard looked at the two lieutenant generals under his command, and he said with a straight face: "Brother Xiu, my plan is to divide the troops into four routes, four arrows at the same time, the first and second corps to take Gucheng, the third and fourth corps, take Qucheng, the fifth, sixth, and seventh corps to take Qingcheng, and the eighth, ninth, and tenth corps to take Liangcheng, Gucheng and Qucheng are closer to our army, and the troops are smaller, so they must be conquered first, after the four corps take these two cities, only one corps needs to be left to garrison the two cities, and the remaining three corps will rush to the aid of Qingcheng and Liangcheng, which side will be reinforced in an emergency,"

Shangguan Xiu nodded as he listened, and when he finished speaking, he asked, "Are you sure?"

"The last general thinks that our army can take these four cities lightly," Jiang Leopard said confidently,

The corners of Shangguan Xiu's mouth raised, smiled, and said: "Okay, Ah Leopard, just follow your idea, divide the troops into four ways, fly with four arrows, and take the four cities in one go,"

"Yes," Jiang Leopard, Zhang Zhao, and Lu Zhuo agreed,

Then, Jiang Leopard began to arrange his troops, he ordered Zhang Zhao to lead four corps to be the commander-in-chief of the attack on Gucheng and Qucheng, and ordered Lu Zhuo to command three corps to attack Liangcheng, and himself, together with Shangguan Xiu, led three corps to attack Qingcheng,

Shangguan Xiu had no objection to his arrangement, and the plan to attack the four cities was finalized in a few words.

The first to break away from the main army was Zhang Zhao's first department, Zhang Zhao led four corps, went south at full speed, and went straight to Gucheng and Qucheng at the junction of Mingshui County and Leping County.

After Zhang Zhao's first division left, the main force of the Seventh Army continued to advance westward, bypassing the city defense area of Qianlong City, and heading straight to Qingcheng and Liangcheng at the junction of Mingshui County and Fengyuan County.

After the large army entered the western area of Mingshui County, according to the original plan, the troops were divided into two routes, all the way to the northwest to take Qingcheng, and all the way to the southwest to take Liangcheng.

Let's say that Shangguan Xiu is here, he and Jiang Leopard commanded 30,000 wind troops, and rushed to Qingcheng.

Qingcheng is an important town at the junction of two counties, located on the transportation hub, the geographical location is very important, Qingcheng is a medium-sized city, the population of the city, close to 100,000, the garrison as many as 20,000,

The Fifth Corps and the Sixth Corps on the side of the Feng Army took the first step, the former detoured to the north of Qingcheng, and the latter detoured to the south of Qingcheng, and then, the two armies temporarily rested in place, waiting for the general attack order from Shangguanxiu's side.

The Seventh Corps led by Shangguan Xiu and Jiang Leopard marched unhurriedly, and when the army advanced to within ten miles of Qingcheng, it encountered the Ningnan defenders of the outer defense line of Qingcheng, and in a small town, half a battalion of the Ningnan Army was stationed.

After hearing the spout's report, Jiang Leopard waved his hand and shouted: "Pass the order, the whole army advances,"

In this unknown town, the wind army sounded the horn of attack, and the battle of Qingcheng also kicked off.

The news of the sudden arrival of the wind army soon spread to the city lord's mansion in Qingcheng City, the city lord of Qingcheng is named Liu Chenen, when the soldiers below reported that there was a wind army outside the city to attack, he had just had lunch and was sitting in the lobby of the city lord's mansion to review the official documents.

Hearing that the wind army was coming, Liu Chenen's body was shocked, and the official document in his hand fell to the ground, he leaned forward involuntarily and asked, "How many soldiers and horses are there in the attacking wind army?"

"Returning to my lordship, the enemy army will not have a single corps,"

"There are so many people, but they can clearly see the number of the enemy,"

"Look at the banner, it's the Seventh Legion of the Wind Country, the Seventh Corps,"

"The Seventh Legion," Liu Chenen sat on the chair, his head was running rapidly, the predecessor of the Seventh Legion of the Wind Country was the Flying Feather Army, which has always been known for its speed, and is good at fighting surprise attacks and elusive legions.

Liu Chenen pondered for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "Where has the Wind Army attacked now?"

"The wind army is storming Lingshui, and our army only has half a battalion of defenders in Lingshui, so I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist the wind army......"

Before he finished speaking, he heard someone outside the lobby shouting: "Report-" A Ningnan soldier hurriedly ran in from the outside with a crooked helmet, and entered the lobby, he knelt on one knee and stepped forward to salute,

"Say,"

"Report to your lordship, the Feng army has captured Lingshui and is heading towards Jiading Village,"

Liu Chenen's face suddenly changed, just now the soldiers came to report that Lingshui Town was attacked, but before he finished speaking, Lingshui Town was lost, and the Feng army had begun to advance towards Jiading Village.

Such an attack speed is too terrifying, Liu Chenen said urgently: "Hurry, quickly transfer the soldiers of the first corps to Yuquan Town to set up defenses, after the Feng Army breaks through Jiading Village, the next target must be Yuquan Town,"

As he spoke, he couldn't sit still in his chair, stood up, strode out, and said to everyone on the left and right: "Follow me to the head of Dongcheng City to watch the battle,"

The first corps of the Qingcheng defenders, not far out of Qingcheng, heard the news that the Feng army had conquered Yuquan Town and was rushing towards their side.

The generals of the Ningnan Army led by him secretly spoke, the speed of the Feng Army's advance was too fast, and it didn't take half an hour before and after, and they had already conquered their two towns and several villages in a row.

The general of the Ningnan army pondered for a moment, immediately made a decision, and ordered: "The whole army is deployed on the spot, digging trenches, preparing to resist the wind army, and fighting to the death with the invading enemy,"

As soon as he gave the order, the officers and men of the Ningnan Army moved up and down and began to dig ravines on the spot, and some Ningnan soldiers took out sacks, filled them with soil, and built them on the edge of the trenches.

Just as they were actively arming and building cover, suddenly, a series of gunshots were heard in the distance.

More than a dozen Ningnan soldiers who were digging trenches didn't even understand what was going on, and fell to the ground in response, some of them were hit by the bullets that flew over on the spot, and some of the soldiers were injured but not dead, and fell to the ground, howling for death.

The officers and soldiers of the Ningnan Army present were a little dumbfounded, not understanding what was going on.

It wasn't until the second round of gunfire rang out, and more than a dozen Ningnan soldiers fell in a pool of blood one after another, that the soldiers of the Ningnan Army finally reacted, and shouted one by one: "Feng Army, it's the Wind Army, the Wind Army has been killed, the Wind Army has been killed,"

The generals of the Ningnan Army, who were wearing silver shining armor, couldn't believe their eyes and ears, didn't the Wind Army just conquer Yuquan Town, there are still six or seven miles away from where their side is, even if the Wind Army uses flying, it is impossible to fly over so quickly,

But the facts are in front of him, they are indeed suffering from the attack of the wind army now, the tens of thousands of Ningnan army, in an instant chaos, some people are so frightened that they are running in all directions, and some people are lying on the ground, lying on the ground, screaming again and again,

The entire tens of thousands of soldiers, just this moment of work, it was a mess of scattered sand, the general of the Ningnan army was quite calm, he drew his sword, and shouted at the nearby soldiers of the Ningnan army who were messed up into a pot of porridge: "Don't panic, don't mess up, the wind army is just a straggler, counterattack, all of them will fight back for me,"

He was really right, the wind army infiltrated a small force of only twenty members, but these twenty people were not simple, including eighteen sharps with superb marksmanship, and two spirit spear shooters,

When the generals of the Ningnan army were yelling around and trying to control the chaotic situation on their side, suddenly, a dull gunshot rang out in the distance,

The spirit bullet pierced the sky, making a piercing scream in the air, the general of the Ningnan Army heard that the voice was wrong, and subconsciously turned his head to look over, he didn't see anything, the moment he turned his head, a spirit bullet accurately hit his forehead, and a bright blood arrow sprayed out behind his head,

The general of the Ningnan Army stared in shock, his body stood frozen in place for a moment, and then he rolled straight back, and in an instant, the blood flowing from the back of his head soaked the ground red.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency—" The attendants around him were astonished, and rushed forward one after another, shouting one after another, but where did he still breathe,

Bang, bang, bang, the sound of muskets in the distance rang out again, and more than a dozen Ningnan soldiers rolled to the ground,

A battalion lieutenant of the Ningnan Army suddenly got up from the ground, pointed in the direction of the gunshot, and shouted: "There, the enemy troops are all over there, brothers, fire over there......"

burst

Before he finished speaking, another oncoming spirit bullet hit his chest, blood spurted out from the back of his heart, and the battalion lieutenant fell down, first the corps commander was killed, and then the battalion lieutenant was killed, and the southern army of Zhongning was frightened, and many people screamed and ran in the direction of Qingcheng regardless of it,

This is the gap between the central army and the local army, and the gap lies not only in the disparity in the personal qualities of the officers and men on both sides, but also in the tactical concepts and combat experience.

On the side of the wind army, the advance team composed of sharp soldiers and spirit spear shooters is to drag the enemy and disrupt the enemy army, in this case, the generals of the Ningnan army still dare to show their heads, which in itself is a kind of death-seeking behavior, and what is even worse is that the generals of the Ningnan army are still wearing dazzling general armor, as if they are afraid that people will not recognize him as the general in the army, if the spirit spear shooter who is ambushed in the dark does not set him as the preferred target, then it is strange,

Whether it is the Central Army of the Wind Country or the Central Army of Ningnan, the military uniforms worn by the generals in battle are undoubtedly the same as ordinary soldiers.

In comparison, the quality and experience of the local army, and even the understanding of firearms warfare are too far behind.
