Heard Yuan Shang's command.

Yan Liang and Wen Chou were stunned for a moment, and then immediately turned around and left.

Their eyes gleamed with excitement.

Could it be that the lord is finally going to war with Liu Hong?

For the rumored incomparably powerful Liu Hong's army, Yan Liangwen only had a burning fighting spirit.

As long as you can kill Liu Hong's army.

Wouldn't he and others want to make a name for themselves?

Looking at the backs of Yan Liangwen and Chou, Yuan Shang fell into contemplation again.

He never thought of what kind of reason could make Liu Hong send troops at this moment.

even dared to risk the world.

There is no fear of a joint siege by this group of them.

But Liu Hong is indeed not afraid.

He was even mentally prepared.

At the same time that Yuan Shang planned to lead the army to set off.

Yuan Yao also began to plan to take the lead in discharging an army of 50,000 people to test the waters.

If this army of 50,000 people was beaten by Liu Hong.

Then Yuan Yao will unite with other princes.

If not, there is no imaginary loss.

Yuan Yao sent his own army of 300,000 to monopolize this advantage.

"Ji Ling!"

"You immediately lead an army of 50,000 to Jingzhou to test the depth of Liu Hong's army."

"Remember, if you can't defeat it, withdraw your troops immediately."

"It doesn't matter if you lose 50,000 troops, but you are the soul of our army, and you can't afford to make a mistake."

Ji Ling nodded solemnly.

"Don't worry, Ji Ling has his own measure!"

The words fell, and Ji Ling quickly turned around and left.

Yuan Yao continued to plan the follow-up with Tian Feng and other strategists.

Soon Ji Ling set out with an army of 50,000.

Except for Yuan Shang and Yuan Yao, the rest of the princes' forces did not move.

Obviously, I also wanted to see the situation first.

At such a critical moment, no one dared to rush into the army.

It is only because of Yuan Yao's wealth and strength that he dares to send tens of thousands of troops to test the waters.

Not much.

The two armies of Yuan Shang and Yuan Yao each went from two directions to the location of Liu Hong's army in Jingzhou.

It's just that the purpose of the latter is to test the attack.

Somewhere in Jingzhou.

The marching musketeers were unaware that the flames of battle had risen.

After another journey, the new captain of the musketeers took out his map and called everyone to his side.

"You see, we are here now, as long as we follow this road all the way up, we will be able to find the emperor."

The captain pointed to the location of Wuling County marked on the map.

Before they knew it, they had already walked to Wuling County.

Hearing this, the team members were ecstatic.

It's been a long journey.

They were finally about to find Liu Hong.

However, just as they had traveled dozens of miles, they ran into a squad of soldiers head-on.

When the soldiers saw the musketeers, they hurriedly rushed over.

"Hey! What are you guys doing? ”

"Which city is General Cheng Pu in Wuling County now!"

The herald asked anxiously.

Liu Hong sent troops to Nanyang County for such a big matter, and he must find Cheng Pu to lead troops to support as soon as possible.

Seeing that these guys ignored him, the herald drew his long knife and shouted loudly.

"Say it! Liu Hong's army has sent troops to Nanyang County! ”

"You can't afford to delay such a big event!"

Liu Hong?

The captain was stunned when he heard this.

Glancing at the herald's fierce appearance again, he couldn't help but squint slightly.

"Everyone, prepare! Fire now! ”

The captain suddenly shouted.

Hearing this, the members of the musketeer squad barely hesitated and immediately opened fire.

Bang bang bang!

Dozens of muskets opened fire.

Caught off guard.

The herald and several soldiers behind him were instantly beaten into a sieve.

"Search!"

The captain beckoned.

Dozens of team members immediately rushed to the dead soldier and searched his body.

After a while, a letter was found.

Although they did not recognize the font on the letter.

But they were able to recognize the word "Liu Hong" and a route map.

The location of Nanyang County on the map is even more circled.

The captain hurriedly took out his map and compared it with the location of Nanyang County, and was immediately overjoyed.

"Great! I found the emperor! ”

The captain shouted excitedly.

A group of team members immediately gathered around curiously.

"Look at this map, and look at the map on this guy who was killed."

"It's clear that they're coming from our next location, which is likely to be attacked by the Emperor's army."

"This guy... Presumably they came to find reinforcements. ”

The captain kicked the herald's corpse and laughed.

Everyone suddenly smiled.

"Let's go, hurry up and find the emperor!"

The captain waved his hand and hurriedly moved quickly in the direction of Nanyang County.

Meanwhile.

Liu Hong's army was two hundred miles ahead.

Since coming out of Chang'an City, Liu Hong has marched forward with musketeers and 30,000 brave horsemen.

As for the army, it was left behind.

Liu Hong planned to consume the strength of a wave of Nanyang County defenders first.

And these brave horsemen are not responsible for the task of besieging the city.

Their task was to cover the musketeers.

Thanks to the inspiration of the musketeer unit.

Liu Hong felt that the transmitter of the Dragon Yin Thunder could also be set to be elongated.

After it was developed, it could really be launched.

And the firing range also reached almost five hundred steps.

However, the amount of explosives was reduced to one-tenth.

But more suitable for dense fire coverage.

On the contrary, it can effectively reduce the loss of Dragon Thunder.

After several days of processing.

Today, in addition to being equipped with muskets, the musketeers are also equipped with this portable and mobile dragon roaring thunderbolt launcher.

The combat effectiveness has increased several times.

Sometimes Liu Hong wants to boast that he is a genius.

As the army gradually deepened.

Liu Hong has already seen the city of Nanyang County.

I saw that the city was full of soldiers with longbows.

Densely covered with walls.

A big flag flutters in the wind.

The whole city was filled with a solemn atmosphere.

It's just that there is more in this breath, and death is like home.

Seeing this, Liu Hong couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly.

I didn't expect that just the first city in Nanyang County would be so tough.

If the city behind it is like this city.

Liu Hong felt that he might have to work harder to gnaw Nanyang County.

As everyone knows, the more than 20,000 defenders in this city have almost emptied the strength of the entire Nanyang County.

This is the limit of what Zhu Zhi can do at present.

on the city walls.

Looking at the group of cavalry that appeared in his sight, Zhu Zhi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, these are only the vanguard troops who came to reconnoitre.

Maybe it can really hold out until Cheng Pu leads the army to support.

His gaze continued, but he was suddenly stunned.

Because Zhu Zhi saw Liu Hong, who was in the middle of the cavalry, wearing a dragon robe and armor.

Liu Hong!

He's here!

Zhu Zhi's complexion changed greatly.
