Dragon Thirteen was both apprehensive and excited.

Thirty Rides VS Twenty Rides, Is There a Chance of Winning?

He is a veteran of a hundred battles trained in Liaodong, but he is a "quasi-cavalry" who has just washed his feet and gone to the field, yes, he doesn't even dare to use cavalry with quotation marks, so he can only use quasi-cavalry.

However, if a group of sheep is led by a male lion, it is also a fighting sheep, and if a group of lions is led by a sheep, it is very likely to become a "soft and glutinous lion"!

"Lift ......"

Long Thirteen shouted, and all the cavalry subconsciously raised their javelins, which was exactly the perfect distance to throw the javelins!

"Whew......."

Most of the javelins flew out in the usual trained arc!

That's enough!

Long Thirteen saw with his own eyes that at least four or five of Zhou Yuji's Jiading team had been affected!

At a distance of about twenty meters, the two squads of cavalry are about to meet!

Long Thirteen had already seen Zhou Yuji's face with a narrow forehead and wide cheekbones, three long beards, and a calm face that rushed to the front!

The horse lance that most generals like at this time in Zhou Yuji's hand is one zhang long, while Long Thirteen only has a two-meter-long riding spear in his hand!

However, Dragon Thirteen's left hand is now a javelin!

One foot distance!

Dragon Thirteen threw out the second javelin!

A shot is right in the middle of Zhou Yuji's war horse!

Since both sides were galloping on their horses, although Long Thirteen stabbed Zhou Yuji's war horse, almost in the next second, the horse lance in Zhou Yuji's hand had already been handed to him!

But he also has a right-handed rifle!

"Pounce!"

The right-handed riding gun can be separated from Zhou Yuji's heavy horse lance!

However, it is just a separation, Zhou Yuji's horse lance was originally stabbed at Long Thirteen's neck, but as he was picked up by the riding spear, he actually picked out Long Thirteen's iron helmet!

Between the lightning and flint, the two horses staggered, the difference is that although Long Thirteen was cloaked, he still maintained the posture of riding his horse forward, but Zhou Yuji fell because the war horse lost its front hooves!

Long Thirteen no longer had a chance to observe what would happen to Zhou Yuji, because a family member rushed in front!

However, the force value of this family is obviously far inferior to Zhou Yuji, the force value of up to 85 Long Thirteen is in the rabbit and the falcon falls, the left hand has copied the last javelin in his hand, the javelin in the left hand separates the opponent's riding spear is bound to win, and the right hand riding spear also stabbed the war horse of the family ding who rushed from the right side!

When he went further, his front was empty!

It turned out that the cavalry of the two squads hedged, and that was a matter of a blink of an eye, and it was naturally over at once.

When I looked at it again, when my own thirty horsemen rushed past Zhou Yuji's twenty horsemen, there were still twenty horsemen still on horseback, but Zhou Yuji's family team only had seven or eight horsemen left!

Pretty good, even if you aim at the opponent's horse, but in the case that the opponent's weapons are generally longer than yours, you can achieve a one-to-one exchange ratio, which is already burning incense!

But Long Thirteen didn't see Zhou Yuji!

It is said that this should not be, with Zhou Yuji's skills, it is impossible to disappear all at once in the case of only a small-scale cavalry battle!

However, now that it was a battlefield, he didn't have time to call up the simulator to observe Zhou Yuji's movements, so he had to ride his horse again!

However, since he couldn't see Zhou Yuji, he wouldn't let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and shouted loudly: "Zhou Yuji is dead, you won't be arrested before you tie your hands!" ”

"Zhou Yuji is dead, you won't be arrested before you can tie your hands!"

As he shouted, his cavalry also shouted, and soon Li Zhanchun and Bai Wenxuan all shouted.

So, when Long Thirteen rode his horse and rushed past Zhou Yuji's remaining seven or eight family members, those family members were obviously affected, and when Long Thirteen and the others swept past them, their cavalry only sacrificed three horses this time, but Zhou Yuji's family Ding team had five or six horsemen shot off their horses!

Similarly, after Li Zhanchun was shot by the opponent's archers with bows and arrows, he finally went around behind them, and then there was a burst of assault!

After the assault was over, he rushed and slammed at the sword and shield soldiers!

And Bai Wenxuan's pikemen also had the upper hand against Zhou Yuji's pikemen, and they were neatly "Close!" "Thorn! In the shout, they completely covered each other like a wall, especially Bai Wenxuan's spear, every time it stabbed out, there was almost no time to miss.

By the time Dragon Thirteen defeated Zhou Yuji's Jiading team, there were not many pikemen left of Zhou Yuji!

At this time, the overall situation on the battlefield has been decided!

All the Ming troops surrendered!

On Gao Jiaji's side, the two sides were inseparable, and at this time, Long Thirteen did not immediately go over to assist, but quickly opened the simulator.

"Zhou Yuji has returned to the city!"

Long Thirteen was shocked, and said secretly: "Zhou Yuji's guy must have been injured after falling off his horse in the battle with me just now, so he had to return to the city alone first, otherwise he would not easily abandon his troops with his skills."

"This guy has a reputation for being good, but it's terrible"

His mind turned, and Long Thirteen made a decision in an instant.

He led all the cavalry to rush towards Zhang Guoqin!

Compared with Zhou Yuji, Zhang Guoqin's troops were much worse than those of Zhang Guoqin, the commander of Jiaokou Fort, and as soon as Long Thirteen rushed with the remaining thirty cavalry (plus Li Zhanchun's cavalry), Zhang Guoqin's troops were in chaos, and the rest was the time to chase and kill the prisoners all over the land.

Zhang Guoqin still had three or four horsemen under him at this time, and seeing that the situation was not good, he hurriedly urged the horse to slip away, but unfortunately, Long Thirteen's simulator recognized him, and he and Li Zhanchun chased after each other, and in the end, they shot them all with bows and arrows!

Then, they drove the captives along the post road on the west bank of the Beichuan River to the north, and soon arrived at Jiaokou Fort!

At this time, there was no serious soldier in Jiaokou Fort except for Qing Zhuang, and he used the captives to open the gate of Jiaokou Fort, and Long Thirteen captured Jiaokou Fort!

Jiaokou Fort, a radius of four miles, is a castle twice as large as Qinglongdu Fort!

Compared with Qinglongdu Fort, Jiaokou Fort is not a castle developed because of commercial factors, but because of military factors, so there are no more materials here except for the food and salary that can meet Zhang Guoqin's hundreds of regiments for three months.

However, because they took Jiaokou Fort, they sandwiched Zhou Yuji's Yongning Prefecture City in the middle and couldn't move, because the southeast of the state city is Ningxiang County, the north is Jiaokou Fort, and the southwest is Qinglongdu Fort.

The next day, Yuan Zongdi came with another hundred pikemen and He Jin dragoons.

"Three masters"

Long 13 saw that Yuan Zongdi's face seemed to be unfavorable, so he asked, "Is the big boss dissatisfied?" ”

Yuan Zongdi nodded, "Not only is he dissatisfied, he was furious when he learned that our battalion did not inform him of the unauthorized attack on Yongning Prefecture City, if it wasn't for the second master to say good things, I'm afraid even I wouldn't have released it."

Li Zhanchun said: "Three masters, I might as well wait to set up my own battalion, now I have won Jiaokou Fort, this is a big fort, look at this posture, it is estimated that it is a thousand household fort, and there are also thousands of Dingkou, not to mention that we still have more than 100 prisoners, and it is not a problem to recruit two or three hundred elites from it."

Long Thirteen was still hesitating, and at this time, Bai Wenxuan came in with a curtain.

"Three masters, the results are out"

It turned out that in order to let the impetuous-minded Bai Wenxuan do some other things besides leading the troops to fight, after taking Jiaokou Fort, he specially arranged for him to count the population, grain and grass in the city.

Of course, he alone could not do it, and he sent him a few soldiers who knew a few words and counted a few to assist him.

"Oh?"

"It turned out that this was really a thousand forts, and later it was abolished, and it became a place where the soldiers were stationed, in charge of the military affairs centered on Yongning Prefecture, after Zhang Guoqin arrived, he set up a training general according to the scale of the county, and recruited five hundred, of which Zhang Guoqin brought thirty families."

"There were originally thousands of military households in the fort, but now there are only more than 600 left, and nearly 3,000 Dingkou, and the rich ones are all the former thousand households, deputy thousand households, and hundreds of households, of course, they all turned into civilian households a few decades ago, because only these families have scholars, in fact, they still control the affairs of the castle

"Bingbeidao ran away early in the morning"

"Since it used to be a thousand forts, according to the regulations of the imperial court, in addition to 900 military households, there are also 100 artisan households, mainly blacksmiths, and carpenters, leathermas, etc."

"There are abundant carboniferous and iron ores near Jiaokou Fort, and the imperial court also has a mine supervisor here, and there are 300 miners in the coal mines, and more than 400 iron ore mines.

(Coal, the Ming name for coal)

"Oh?"

"Three masters, according to the confession of the dead eunuch, this is one of the four large mines set up by the imperial court in Shanxi, of which the mining site in Jiaocheng needs to hand over 100,000 catties of pig iron to the military department every year, and the coal and pig iron here only need to meet the needs of Shanxi Town, and pay 30,000 catties to Shanxi Town every year, and 5,000 taels of silver to the inner treasury."

"It is also necessary to pay 500 Yanling knives, 2,000 spearheads, 2,000 spear shafts, 10,000 arrows, and 300 bows and arrows every year to the entire military preparation area."

"According to their plan, once the snowflakes bloom in spring, they will be sent to Ningwu Pass"

(Ningwuguan, Shanxi Town Station)

"Huh?"

"Three masters?"

Long Thirteen Qiang held back the excitement in his heart, originally he thought that Jiaokou Fort was just an ordinary castle, nothing more than a little bigger than Qinglongdu Fort, but now it seems that he has picked up a treasure!

"So what are you waiting for? They raided the homes of the rich families, and then distributed a stone of grain and a certain amount of property to each poor family, and then hurriedly recruited troops."

"How many recruits?"

"I think about it, if five hundred households are recruited, if they recruit those over fifteen years old and under twenty years old, and they are not yet married, it is estimated that there are two hundred, and in addition, after the recruitment is completed, the older ones in the captives, and the officers above the rank of even one will be pushed out and beheaded."

"Three masters!"

Long Thirteen knew what they were thinking, but he had a reason, "Do what I want, the older ones have families, how can they rest assured in my camp?" Officers are usually paid a lot of money, how can they stay at the head of our righteous army camp? ”

"After recruitment, let the recruits kill those prisoners, just so that they have no way out, in this case, I estimate that there will be about a hundred prisoners left, plus the recruited, you can add three hundred"

"By the way, there are quite a few archers among the captives, all of whom are included in the ranks of the cavalry, how many war horses are there in this fort?"

"There are still twenty or thirty horses for the rich and the Yamen of the Soldiers, and in addition, we have sacrificed twenty cavalry, so we ......."

"I know, it's the beginning of February, and there are still two months left in the spring in Shanxi, and we will practice hard in Jiaokou Fort in these two months, and if we have four hundred elite infantry troops, fifty or sixty cavalry, plus Gao Jiaji's men and horses, we can indeed be independent battalion leaders."

"That's ......."

Long 13 suddenly thought that he still had to complete the task of "taking Yongning Prefecture City", so he said: "Let's talk about it again"
