The eighty-fourth Shang king has raised a three-foot sword, and the east is shining on ten thousand soldiers.
In northern Xinjiang, Su Quanzhong led an army of 20,000 troops stationed here.
The army was stationed in the earthen fort built during the Wuding period, where there are more than 100 earthen forts, which is the place with the largest number of earthen forts in northern Xinjiang.
The task given to Su Quanzhong by the king of Shang was to reactivate the earthen fort in the Wuding period and replace it with a beacon tower that stretched for thousands of miles to avoid being caught off guard.
Then make a simple Great Wall here, in case the earthwork goes south, you can also rely on the Great Wall to defend the enemy from the country.
But time was still too tight, and the simple Great Wall was barely built a third of it relying on earthen forts, and the beacon towers at the front line were already lit, plus a few defeated soldiers who fled back.
As everyone knows, the earthwork may have really come.
Only a third of the wall was built, and there were more than a dozen soldiers standing vigil, most of them drowsy.
It's too cold this winter, not to mention the vigil and wearing armor that has no thermal insulation effect, it's really cold.
Even if I knew that the earthwork might be coming, I couldn't lift my spirits.
"Cheer me up, maybe the earthwork will come tonight!" Su Quanzhong roared angrily.
The soldiers snorted, and the sound of the voice instantly woke them up.
One of them said: "General, those earthwork barbarians probably just want to grab it at the border, and they haven't come for five days." I am afraid that when they see our strong defenses, they will be frightened and go back to their hometowns. ”
Su Quanzhong roared again: "The beacon tower is lit, how many of your comrades have died?" How could the earthwork not come? Are you an earthman? You know they're not coming? If you don't want to be a soldier, I'll let you go home when you return to Chaoge after the battle. ”
The soldier lowered his head, but did not dare to say another word, so he had to cheer up.
At this time, a soldier suddenly shouted: "Look, everyone, it looks like something is rushing towards you." ”
Everyone looked together, only to see the dust flying, and the black cavalry pressed over, spreading all over the sky, no matter how good your eyesight is, you can't count how many people there are.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"
The soldiers on the night vigil shouted, and the sleeping merchant soldiers were woken up one after another, put on their armor and took their weapons.
Subsequently, almost all the soldiers were a little frightened, this number of earthmen must be too many, right? Now that the Great Wall has only been half repaired, how can it be defended by relying on this earthen fort and the Great Wall, which has not been repaired for a third of the time?
Only Su Quanzhong had no fear, he knew that he was afraid, and shouted excitedly: "Release the arrow, release the arrow, release the arrow!" ”
"Kill them without a piece of armor."
In this scene, the merchant army didn't know how many times they had practiced, and their body instincts replaced their brains to suppress fear, and they subconsciously bent their bows and arrows, and in an instant, arrows rained down.
The charging earth-moving cavalry fell from their horses in a rain of arrows, and even if they did not die, they would be trampled by the horses of their colleagues beside them.
Su Quanzhong picked up the spear and wanted to jump off the city tower and fight them for 300 rounds, so that they could see the Northern Xinjiang Grand Prize - Su Quanzhong's power.
But what they didn't expect was that the earthmoving cavalry didn't take care of more than a hundred earthen forts, nor did they take care of the Great Wall, which had been repaired by a third, but just rushed through the gap.
This is originally a boundless grassland, and the Great Wall has not been built, so how can it be possible to stop the earthmen from galloping on horseback?
In this way, the earthmen left nearly a thousand corpses behind and ran away, and soon they were out of sight.
Su Quanzhong's lieutenant Su Renjia asked, "General, do you want to chase it?" ”
Su Quanzhong struggled for a long time, but finally held back the impulse to pursue: "The king has an order, our task is to build the Great Wall and garrison the northern frontier, or not to pursue." ”
"When they continue to move south, they will inevitably bump into the Chaoge army and lose their armor, I will hurry up and repair the Great Wall, then we can close the door and fight the dogs, so that this group of earthmen will be wiped out!"
At this time, they didn't know that the king of Shang only rushed to the north with 3,000 guards, and if they knew, they were afraid that they would have to keep this group of earthmoving cavalry.
。。。
Suddenly, a black eagle flew towards Ji Moyu, and he took out the secret letter at the foot of the black eagle and looked at it for a long time.
Then he straddled his horse and headed for the Black Hammer King.
"Good, good!"
"God bless me with the earth!"
The Black Hammer King was overjoyed when he looked at the secret letter handed over by Ji Moyu, the King of Shang actually rushed to the north with three thousand guards, didn't he come to give us a head?
In fact, Ji Moyu's previous plan was not a real plan, leading the cavalry to attack Chaoge, which is impossible to succeed when you think about it.
The high walls of Chaoge City are thick, and the soldiers are full of food, where can the earth be able to shoot down?
It's just an excuse to prevent leaks.
Ji Moyu's real plan for him to make a decision to go south was that he promised with his head that as long as the earthmen killed in the northern frontier and along the way, they would definitely attract the wrath of the Shang king to conquer in person.
And Ji Moyu also told him that most of the guards of Beibohou had already taken refuge in Chongheihu, and now they were all in Chaoge City, and they could get the news as soon as the king of Shang left the city.
Then directly bypass the earthen wall that has not yet been repaired, go to intercept and kill the prince of the royal driver's personal expedition, and take the opportunity to capture the king of Shang alive!
If the prince of Shang can be captured alive, will there be a shortage of food and land in the future?
The Black Hammer King couldn't help laughing, and the current situation was even more perfect than planned, this Shang prince was so entrusted that he dared to attack the northern frontier with three thousand guards, wouldn't he be looking for death?
Subsequently, the prince of Wuhammer led 120,000 cavalry to surround Chaoge, and by the way, robbed the 150,000 as the foot soldiers of the Shang queen's army, and at the same time prevented the news from leaking.
And Wu Zhidong took 50,000 elite horsemen to rob and kill the king of Shang.
At the same time, the division of troops into two routes can also ensure that no matter which way the Shang prince goes to the northern frontier, he will definitely run into an army.
Wu Zhidong is not only tall, but also very stout, with a waist length of ten girths, eyebrows one foot wide, eyes like electricity, faintly looking, only feeling that he is full of tyrannical and murderous aura.
He personally led 50,000 cavalry, and according to the information given by Ji Moyu, he rushed towards the road that the Shang King's Northern Expedition must pass.
They didn't bring any camp accounts, and they only took the mutton jerky and beef jerky that had been prepared long ago to eat, and nibbled a few casually.
After all, the opportunity for the king of Shang to be alone cannot be missed, in case he suddenly decides to turn back to the song or join the army, wouldn't it be a bamboo basket for nothing?
If it was too late to-day, they found a village to rest everywhere, but the village was already empty, and it was estimated that they knew that the earthwork was going south, and they did not know where to go.
"You can get off the horse and sleep, but remember not to disarm, the weapon must be kept at hand, not more than three meters away from the horse, the village is not big enough, there are not many people, others live near the village, find a place to rest."
According to the information given by Ji Moyu, the king of Shang did not know that we had broken through the Great Wall and the earth fort, and it would take at least one day and one night to get here.
Wu Zhidong did not doubt whether he could catch the Shang prince, but he brought a full 50,000 of the most elite clansmen of the earth, and 30,000 people equipped with iron weapons bought from Xiqi, I am afraid that a charging Shang king's guards will be wiped out.
When the Shang King is captured, he won't have to be so tired, and when the time comes, he will directly take the Shang King to support the Black Hammer King, and I'm not afraid that they will dare to resist!
Along the way, you can also loot some villages and towns, and find some women to be cool, I heard that the women of the big merchants are much better than their tribes.
"Hehe, the merchant army is not Er'er, I'm afraid that as soon as the big merchant passes tomorrow, the entire northern Xinjiang will change its banner."
"In the future, they will be called ministers and tributes every year."
While thinking about it, the night was getting deeper and deeper, and Wu Zhidong sat on the horse and fell asleep.
