Chapter Ninety-Three: Boldly Attacking the City, Scholarly Spirit

readx;

Kartifu is the seventeenth prince of the Great Food, shrewd and capable, with outstanding talents, when he was very young, he showed extraordinary intelligence, and followed the Great Food Emperor to fight in the north and south all the year round, and now, the territory of the Great Food has been extremely vast and unbeatable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Great Food Emperor implemented his will to every corner of his sight, and has achieved an unprecedented hegemony, but he has fought for a lifetime, and now he is old, and he has no ambition in his prime, and slowly began to indulge in the pride of ** and success, and suddenly got close to the temple, and most of them were dreaming of prolonging life and even longevity.

However, Cardiff is still young and enthusiastic, and he is willing to compete for the throne with his wasteful brothers, and waste a lot of time.

So when someone put forward the suggestion of the Eastern Crusade Liang, Kartif bravely stood up and responded, volunteering to be the vanguard of the Eastern Crusade Army.

The Great Food Iron Cavalry has been fighting for decades and is extremely powerful, but the migration journey of thousands of miles in the desert is too difficult.

Kartif resolutely abandoned the original strategy of seeking stability, selected more than 10,000 elite cavalry, only to be fostered in an appropriate amount, broke away from the large army, and rushed forward rapidly, after leaving behind the bones of nearly 3,000 soldiers, he finally crossed the desert, followed the dividing line between the northwest and the Hu people's forces, and quietly arrived in the east.

It's just that Carif is full of adventurous blood in his bones, from voluntarily leaving the center of power to eat, to leaving behind the large army and risking the danger of annihilation to quickly cross the desert, one carelessness is the end of no return, but he is still happy to do it.

After passing through the desert, Kartif only ordered his subordinates to rest for a while, not to occupy an area and wait for the army behind, but to lead all the soldiers and almost frantically go towards Chengyongzhou, the first army of Daliang.

Therefore, it is unfortunate for a team like Ergou to patrol the nearby area.

Katifu was naturally high-spirited, but he still maintained respect and humility for the old man around him, sneered at Ergou running in front, and said lightly: "This Liang person will take us to where we want to go." ”

The quaint old man remained silent and did not respond.

In the distance, a mountain-like black shadow suddenly appeared, striking in the snow-white wilderness, like a desolate beast rushing towards it, even the elite Great Iron Eater was stunned, and the sneer that Khativ was accustomed to slowly retracted, and his expression became solemn.

Such a majestic city, the impact on everyone is huge, even the most luxurious food country, I am afraid that it is not half the size of this Yongzhou City.

As for the almost suffocating momentum of Yongzhou City, the big cannibal subconsciously inhaled.

In the past, it was said that the proud capital of the big food country, before such a majestic city, it was really a little ridiculous, just like a dilapidated small city.

The old man with a simple face also looked up, looked at the heroic city in the distance, and sighed slightly.

Cardiff pursed his thin lips, felt that the old man's sigh was particularly harsh, as if he was really laughing at his ignorance and naivety, slowly drew out a longbow, and rushed to the front, with a sneer on his face, and shouted in a low voice: "Spread the flag! Forward!!"

.................................... In Yongzhou City, Yang Shouye and Chu Mad had already returned to the capital, and the deputy general Ye Zuozheng who stayed behind was anxiously pacing in the big tent.

Six of the vigilant patrol teams sent out did not return on time and were not heard from on time.

Now, the nominal supreme commander of Yongzhou, the second son of the Duke of Yasukuni, Guo Liang, the prefect of Yongzhou, put down the teacup and comforted: "General Ye, don't worry, the snow is deep and windy outside, or maybe you have encountered a small tribe of the Hu people, and the soldiers are reaping the merits of the war......"

Ye Zuo smiled reluctantly, maintaining respect for his nominal boss, and said that Yang Shouye and Chu Mania were in front of him, but now it was extremely painful to be pushed down at the front desk, and he was so busy all day that his feet did not touch the ground or trembling, he pondered for a long time, and instructed the soldiers outside the tent: "Send Tanma again to find those teams of people back!"

Guo Liang's expression froze, and his face was a little ugly.

Ye Zuo didn't care about Guo Liang's feelings, he just hoped that nothing would happen, and let Yang Shouye or Chu Mad come back as soon as possible, thinking about it, he was a little uneasy, and doubled the number of horses.

Guo Liang glanced at Ye Zuo deeply, and did not move the tea on the table again.

The atmosphere is a little stagnant, Ye Zuo's status and prestige are not as good as Chu Mad, naturally needless to say, Yang Shouye can't be subdued, and the cooperation between the two has always stumbled like this.

Guo Liang, a seemingly high-ranking prefect, is actually very aggrieved.

Chu Mad has been in Yongzhou for many years, especially in the Northern Expedition, chasing the enemy for revenge, and his prestige in the army has reached its peak, even Yang Shouye does not dare to suppress it easily.

As for Yang Shouye, the first general in the Great Liang Army, Guo Liang couldn't even raise the courage to resist.

I thought that after the two mountains on my head went to the capital, I could breathe a sigh of relief and let go of my ambitions, but I didn't expect this Chu crazy deputy general to be so uninteresting!

Ye Zuo was worried in his heart, Chu Mad's orders could not be carried out, and offending Guo Liang would also have serious consequences, so he could only hold on to his surname and explain carefully to ease the tension between the two.

Guo Liang sneered in his heart, and did not take this deputy general with no background in his eyes, he beat it lightly and heavily, seeing that Ye Zuo wanted to get angry and forced himself to endure it, he said unhurriedly: "General Ye is now considered to be on the defensive side, why is he so cautious? In this kind ............of weather, will there still be a large number of enemies attacking the city? It's just that dozens of soldiers didn't return to the camp in time, and maybe they met wolves in the wild."

Ye Zuo knew that Guo Liang wanted to come and consider himself a literati, despise and even despise the soldiers, so he forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "There are nearly 100 soldiers...... They are all elites who crawled out of the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood...... And where they patrol, concentrated in a narrow area...... As for the large number of enemies attacking the city, it is not without ...... That time, Yongzhou suffered heavy losses...... The last general will not be able to take on this responsibility............"

Guo Liang was a little annoyed, and also remembered that ten years ago, there seemed to be a large number of Hu people attacking the city, but it was a long time ago, and I couldn't remember it clearly, but now I think about it, I don't remember anything else, but I remember that it was the Yongzhou prefect at that time who neglected his duties and carelessly underestimated the enemy, and afterwards was killed by Emperor Liang, who was bent on the charge of collaborating with the enemy, Guo Liang only thought that Ye Zuo was insinuating himself, his face immediately turned red, he slapped the table fiercely, and shouted angrily:" Use your brain, the Hu people have been greatly injured, and the envoys of the northwest countries have all gone to the capital to pay tribute, where will anyone still attack the city? ! It is clear that you are cowardly and afraid of things, and you are playing with power! If a large number of enemies attack, this official will ............"

At this time, the soldiers outside the door urgently reported:

"My lord, a large number of enemies outside the city are attacking the city!"

Ye Zuo stood up suddenly, his armor rattled, and strode outside.

Guo Liang was like a pheasant choked by the neck, trembling all over, swallowing back the second half of the sentence stubbornly, and followed in a panic!

Ye Zuo is a typical soldier, and he can't care about being angry with Guo Liang, he grabbed the pro-soldier who delivered the message, and strangled the pro-soldier until he couldn't breathe, asked a few words with a fierce expression, threw the man on the ground casually, and quickly passed the order.

Soon, the whole city was moving in an orderly manner.

Guo Liang was ashamed and indignant in his heart, and even wondered if Ye Zuo deliberately created such a formation to damage his face, feeling that the soldiers and people of the entire city heard what he had just said, and they were all throwing mocking and sneering glances at him intentionally or unintentionally.

Ye Zuo got on the war horse, turned around and ordered: "Lord Guo, please go back to the house, I will go to the city tower to explore!"

Guo Liang felt that Ye Zuo's gaze was full of disdain and sarcasm, and he trembled, and he wanted to go back to the town, but he gritted his teeth and said, "This official also goes to the city tower to have a look!"

Still don't believe it, this weather, at this time, how can there be an enemy attacking the city!

Yongzhou City, North Gate Tower.

Guo Liang looked at the black oppressive people in the distance, and his mouth grew, thinking of the Yongzhou prefect who was beheaded ten years ago, and remembering what he hadn't finished saying just now, he felt uncomfortable.

Ye Zuo leaned on the city wall and looked into the distance, his expression was serious, silently estimating something, his face suddenly changed, and he roared in a low voice: "It's Ergou!"

The second dog lay on his horse, and seemed to have passed out.

The big food cavalry began to be eager to try, as if they were about to start charging, and slowly surrounded the two dogs and one horse, and the meaning of the joke was fully revealed!

Ye Zuo and Ergou's dead father are old friends, panting and thinking silently for a while, he shouted in a low voice: "Kaecheng, the silver armor battalion attacks the enemy's left flank, the bronze armor battalion attacks the enemy's right flank, traps the camp and charges, and the golden armor battalion ...... behind the palace."

Guo Liang shouted: "No!"

Ye Zuo turned his head suddenly, clenched his fists, and roared in a low voice: "The horses have been detected, the enemy is only seven thousand, at most ten thousand, and there are 100,000 cavalry in Yongzhou City, enough to eat them!"

Guo Liang sneered and shouted unceremoniously: "Only this official has the right to command! What if the enemy is luring the enemy? What if there is a large army or an ambush behind him? For the sake of a close pawn outside the city, General Ye actually took the risk of acting at the cost of the entire Yongzhou............

Ye Zuo looked anxiously outside the city, waved his hand impatiently to interrupt, and quickly explained: "Where is there any ambush? The enemy is just bluffing! Tanma has already explored all sides, and there is absolutely no army! In this kind of weather, if the army moves, it will not be able to cover up its tracks no matter what...... As for the ambush, hmph, if you stand in the snow in this weather, you will freeze to death!"

Guo Liang's face was blushing, and new hatred and old hatred came to his heart together. Although he also knew what Ye Zuo said, but the soldiers around him were watching, how could !!he be soft at this time?

Guo Liang knew that he was just a civilian official, and he had never known anything about military affairs, and he said that Chu Mad and Yang Shouye were there, and there was no possibility of interfering at all, and now he finally held all the affairs of Yongzhou in his hands, so he was naturally unwilling to let go, but now he was scolded by Chu Mad's deputy general in public, and he had to fight for this breath if he could have let go.

Even if things are as Ye Zuo said, the enemy is bluffing, Yongzhou has the advantage of soldiers and horses, and it seems to be ironclad to send troops to victory, but if there are no troops, Yongzhou will 100% not have an accident, and he will definitely not bear any responsibility, and he can also use this to severely suppress Ye Zuo's prestige and arrogance, and by the way, he will export his evil anger.

Not seeking merit, but seeking no fault, is the golden rule of the Guo family in officialdom!

Guo Liang's heart was crossed, and he didn't look at Ye Zuo's eager eyes, and shouted calmly: "Pass on this official order, all soldiers strictly abide by their posts, without my order, those who go out of the city to meet the enemy without permission will be killed!"

The atmosphere on the city tower was stagnant, and then many soldiers were like thunder!

Guo Liang fluttered, this feeling ............ It's wonderful!

Ye Zuo almost grabbed a piece of the bluestone of the city wall, and shouted in a low voice: "My lord............"

Since Guo Liang had already made up his mind, how could he change his words again, stared at Ye Zuo majestically and indifferently, and forced Ye Zuo to swallow his words back with official authority.

This feeling of power in your hands...... Refreshing!

On the city wall, the elite of Yongzhou, which is heavily armoured, is waiting for it.

Outside the city, Ergou, who was unconscious due to serious injuries and bleeding, fell heavily to the ground.

Katif looked at the Xiongcheng in front of him and the elite soldiers on the tower with a serious face, and a sense of powerlessness filled his heart.

Before, the guards borrowed from the Snow Mountain Temple, the lowest of which was also the seventh grade, killed the same number of Yongzhou elites in just one photo, which was cool, but Khatif also knew that he couldn't do it, after all, there were not many such strong guards, and his duty was only to protect his own safety, and when it came to the battlefield of tens of thousands of people, the role he played would be very small, and in front of such a heroic city, the role could be ignored.

I'm still too careless and too confident!

Kartif regretted it a little, and secretly decided that as long as the other party sent troops, he would order a rapid retreat to protect himself, and the original estimate of the strength of the Liang seemed to be wrong.

There was silence on the castle tower.

Kartif observed for a while, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned his eyes, and suddenly galloped his horse, shot the second dog to death with one arrow, and shouted: "Charge!"

The Great Iron Horseman, who had marched all the way, began to charge with a bang, the earth began to tremble, the wide half-moon flag sounded in the wind, and the black-pressed Iron Horse seemed to die by hitting the wall.

A young man in front of him nailed Ergou to his horse with an arrow, and then picked up Ergou's corpse with a long knife and threw it in the air.

The momentum of nearly 10,000 cavalry charges is almost unstoppable, and the fact that the Great Iron Horse dares to charge at Yongzhou City has added to this momentum.

Soon the corpse of the second dog disappeared under the horse's hooves, and the morale of the Great Liang army on the city wall seemed to be suppressed.

The Great Food Army also suddenly divided into two groups, drew a large arc outside the city, and then merged into a team, howling and marching away.

Kartiv began to get used to the sneer of his surname again, with contempt for Liang Bing's worries, and with the pride of succeeding in another big adventure, and it seemed with a kind of ease of escaping death, chuckling and turning back to the old man and saying, "Teacher, I, have won again." ”

The quaint old man silently glanced back, sighed slightly, and secretly said in his heart, it's just luck.

Outside the city, a mess.

There was silence on the towers.

It was the first time for Guo Liang to see such a large-scale cavalry charge, and he was speechless by the earth-destroying momentum, and waited until the cavalry went away to come back to his senses, and hurriedly coughed a few times to hide the embarrassment of the gaffe, and also felt the depression of the atmosphere on the city tower, and asked in a low voice: "General Ye, do you want to pursue?"

Ye Zuo looked at the mess outside the city in pain, as if he wanted to find the trace of the second dog, looked at the somewhat low morale on the city tower and the enemy who ran away with strange screams, nodded slightly, and patted the pursuit of the two thousand people symbolizing the surname.

Guo Liang also seemed to realize that he had really made a mistake, and hurriedly said: "This is handed over to General Ye, this official will go down to write a note to explain everything in detail, and General Ye will remember to sign it when he arrives......

Ye Zuo smiled miserably, dignified Yongzhou, with all the soldiers and horses, he watched thousands of enemies show off their martial arts under their noses and then go away, and even tortured and killed a soldier, but he didn't shoot an arrow, let alone go out of the city to meet the enemy, looking at Guo Liang, who was still calculating how to shirk the blame at this time, he muttered: "The scholar misled the country......
