Chapter 297: Fierce Battle
Lü Zhang was overjoyed to learn that he could go on an expedition to Shangzhan City.
He had been studying at the Royal Military Academy for several years, and he had waited too long for this day.
The other side.
Wu also seemed to know the news of Dafeng's increase in troops, and accelerated the offensive against the three cities of Yancheng, Pucheng, and Gancheng.
A few days later.
Long Fei, Lu Zhang, and more than a dozen other generals arrived at Yancheng, where the attack was the most fierce.
With reinforcements, Wang Zhenwei breathed a sigh of relief.
He sent Long Fei, Lu Zhang and others to Gancheng and ordered Long Fei to be the commander-in-chief of Gancheng.
As soon as he arrived in Gancheng, he heard the generals of Wu State shouting and scolding outside the city, and the scolding was very ugly.
"General Long, this Wu country is too deceitful, and the last general is willing to go out of the city to meet the enemy!"
Lü Zhang couldn't stand this anger, Wu Guo greeted the eighteen generations of their Han ancestors, and Lü Zhang just wanted to go out of the city and provoke this enemy general under the horse.
"No."
"General Lu, don't fall for the enemy's radical tactics."
"Our army has rockets, gunpowder canisters and other sacred objects, and they just need to hold on."
Long Fei also wanted to agree, but Lu Zhangnai was the younger brother of the imperial concubine Lu Shiyu.
With this relationship, where is he willing to let Lu Zhang go out of the city to fight the enemy general?
"Ugh..."
Lu Zhang clenched his fists, his face full of indignation, and finally sighed.
A soldier takes obedience to orders as his duty.
Long Fei is the commander-in-chief of Gancheng, and it is impossible for him to disobey the orders of his superiors.
The other side.
The generals of the Wu army organized a group to scold until noon, their mouths were dry, and they returned to the camp.
"Master Hou, this Gancheng guard can't shrink out, we have to think of a way..."
"Master Hou, I heard that the reinforcements of the Han people will arrive soon, if there are tens of thousands of reinforcements, it will be even more difficult for us to fight?"
"Master Hou..."
In the big tent of the Chinese army, all the generals looked at Yingning Hou, hoping that Hou Ye would have an idea.
The one responsible for attacking Gancheng was the fierce general Ying Ninghou under the command of King Liang.
It's been more than ten days, and they have also paid a great price, but Dafeng's city is extremely difficult to manage.
There were gunpowder jars and other sacred objects, and the corpses of many of their sons were piled up under the walls of Gancheng and became charred corpses.
"Someone."
"Go to the distant villages and towns to capture the people of Daebong."
"I don't believe that they can still shoot people?"
Ying Ninghou calmed down and came up with a poisonous plan.
Immediately, several generals took action.
The next day, just after dawn, the sound of Wu Jun's drums resounded outside Gancheng.
"Hurry, rush forward, whoever dares to turn back will kill whoever comes!!"
"Rush rush, rush !!"
“......”
On the vast land, the Wu army drove thousands of people with iron chains on their hands and feet like cattle and sheep.
These people are all civilians from the Dafeng frontier.
But they are now pawns.
Some people thought about running away, but they were greeted by a cold scimitar.
"Help, help us..."
"Master Jun, don't release arrows, don't release arrows..."
"We are the people of Dafeng..."
“......”
The people were driven away by the Wu army, and they were frightened and shouted wildly.
On the city wall, the soldiers defending the city have already drawn their bows and full moons, but no one can bear to make a move.
"Damn!" Lu Zhang's eyes shone with coldness, "General Long, these are all my people, and I am willing to lead the elite soldiers out of the city to rescue the people." ”
Long Fei also smashed his fist on the city wall, and the treacherous of the people of Wu exceeded his expectations.
However, Lu Zhang's identity made him unable to make up his mind.
If Lu Zhang has three longs and two shorts, how can he explain to His Majesty?
"General, don't hesitate."
"If you're like that, the more the rest of the generals say I'm going through the back door."
"This time, I'll take the lead."
"It's too late to get out of town, and it's too late."
Lu Zhang was anxious and spoke again.
He is still young, and it is inevitable that there will be gossip in the army.
And Lu Zhang also wanted to prove himself with his military exploits.
"Good!" Long Fei also knew the truth of constantly being in turmoil, gritted his teeth and said, "You immediately lead 10,000 iron horsemen out of the city to meet the enemy, mainly to save people, and you must not fall in love with war!" ”
"No! The last will obey! ”
Lu Zhang was overjoyed, and the sonorous voice swayed.
The rest of the generals all glanced at Lu Zhang at this time.
Thundered~
The gates of Gan were opened.
"General, the gates are open."
"Rush through and take the gates!"
The generals of the Wu army were overjoyed, and their eyes lit up when they saw the city gate open.
The combat effectiveness of the Daebong army is not what it used to be.
But compared with their Wu State Field Army and cavalry, it is still a little worse.
Especially the cavalry, the cavalry of the Wu State is the first in the world.
Otherwise, it would have been annexed by the Rus' state.
In terms of field warfare, the army of Wu has never been afraid of anyone.
Even if it is the current cavalry of Dafeng, it is not enough to see.
"Gentlemen, kill!"
Lu Zhang raised the bright silver spear in his hand, and the sound containing murderous aura swept away.
In the next moment, thousands of horses galloped.
10,000 cavalry and five generals rushed towards the crowd of people under the leadership of Lu Zhang.
On the vast land, the cavalry of the Wu army and the cavalry of Dafeng were like two torrents of steel colliding together.
Puff~
The bright silver spear swept into the clouds, and the gun hit the vital point.
Lu Zhang's spear skills can be called superb.
In an instant, he picked up two generals of the Wu army.
"Quick, get into town!"
There are soldiers desperately protecting innocent people to enter the city, and the Wu army is also red-eyed, wanting to crush the Dafeng soldiers in front of them to seize the city gate.
The most dazzling is still Lu Zhang.
But whoever dared to come to the front of the Wu army generals, none of them could survive ten rounds.
"What a fast gun..."
A general of the Wu army only felt that his eyes flashed, and Lu Zhang's bright silver spear had pierced his heart.
When he was dying, his mind was full of the scene when Lu Zhang had just been shot.
If he could do it all over again, he would definitely not fight with Lu Zhang.
In the next moment, the general of the Wu army fell directly off his horse.
"Damn, kill him!"
More and more Wu troops surrounded like a tide.
This time, they have already been killed, and even if they don't seize the city gate, they will kill Lu Zhang.
"Woo~"
"Woo~"
A low trumpet sounded.
Lu Zhang, whose bright silver armor had been dyed red armor, did not love to fight, and quickly retreated.
To protect thousands of people.
Of the 10,000 cavalry who went out of the city to meet the enemy this time, less than half returned to the city.
In the field battle on the plains, Lü Zhang experienced the horror of the Wu cavalry for the first time.
Whether it's equestrianism, tactics, archery, etc., even the elite head-to-head battle of Daebong will not take advantage of it at all.
Seeing that the drawbridge in front of the moat was slowly raised, the Wu army could only collect its troops.
In this battle, they also paid a lot of price.
In particular, more than a dozen generals above the rank of lieutenant died.
Murderer, Lu Zhang!
This future famous general entered the sight of Wu's high-level for the first time.
After returning to the city.
Lu Zhang was silent.
The atmosphere in the army was also very gloomy.
Because they got the latest news.
On the side of Wu, there are more troops.
What to do?
Can it be kept?
Now everyone's heart is heavy.
In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Zhang broke the silence, "General Long, I don't think we can sit still." ”
