The 40,000 Tiance army drove to five miles outside Shuzhou City, but was stopped by a small group of cavalry.

This cavalry is an army sent by the imperial court to garrison Shuzhou, and it is not under the control of the local government, nor does it have any contact with the local government.

After they got the movement of the 40,000 cavalry of the Tiance Legion, they have been staring at this huge cavalry.

"The Tiance Army is not guarding in the northwest, what are you doing in Shuzhou?" The guard stepped forward and asked.

"On the order of the general, come to Shuzhou to quell the rebellion." Zheng Xiong said loudly.

"Is there a court order?" The guard asked.

"Don't you understand? On the order of the general, come to Shuzhou to quell the rebellion."

Zheng Xiong was very arrogant, what he meant by this was that there was no order from the imperial court, and he would not show the dispatch documents to the garrison.

"Still out of the way?" Zheng Xiong saw that the guard did not move, and shouted.

Shuzhou has already made a fuss, and the Shuzhou garrison is not unaware.

There are only two situations in which this defender can take the initiative without consulting the imperial court.

The first is that there is an invasion by foreign enemies, and the second is that there are people who want to rebel.

Shuzhou is the country of abundance, and there will basically be no foreign invasion in this place.

Recently, the movement in Shuzhou has been so big, and there have been two large-scale wars before and after, and they have all seen it.

But these people just beat each other, and no one raised the anti-flag, so naturally they didn't move.

If it's just a local conflict, they don't have to do it.

Now that the Tiance army has dispatched tens of thousands of cavalry, maybe there are really people in Shuzhou who want to rebel?

The garrison thought about it, and the quality of the 20,000 defenders under his command was actually very average. Although it is much stronger than those recruits, it is impossible to beat these 40,000 Tiance cavalry.

Such a big movement of the Tiance Army, the imperial court

It is impossible not to know.

Since the court did not come to appoint, it was better for him not to move.

Anyway, Shuzhou has been making trouble for so long, so it's okay to let them make a fuss.

As soon as the garrison raised his hand, he turned around with the cavalry and went back to the barracks.

Zheng Xiong continued to advance with the cavalry and drove to the outside of Shuzhou City.

"Two thousand men will enter the city with the general, and all the scouts will be dispersed, and the rest will stand by in place."

After Zheng Xiong gave the military order, he rode into the city with two thousand.

When I entered the prefect's yamen, I found that there were only a few old, weak, sick and disabled people in the yamen, and I didn't see a single key person.

After inquiry, Zheng Xiong learned that the prefect Wang Chi went out with an army to suppress thieves.

No wonder the city is so deserted, and almost every household is closed.

Soon after, the scouts reported the information they had found to Zheng Xiong.

Wang Chi led 60,000 recruits to Xiling Mountain to suppress thieves, and he has been fighting in the mountains for five days and five nights.

The reason why Xing Daorong sent Zheng Xiong over was because Zheng Xiong knew the situation in Shuzhou.

Wang Chi is the general's person, and Wang Sanqian is also the general's person, and most of these two people were provoked by Su Xuan, so they began to kill each other.

The general said that although this Su Xuan is young, he has a lot of eyes and is not easy to deal with.

It is indeed not easy for him to turn Shuzhou upside down with his own strength.

Did he want Wang Chi and Wang Sanqian to die together? In this way, won't the general's hard work be completely ruined?

Now Xiling Mountain has been fighting for five days and five nights, and I don't know what the situation is.

He had to hurry over to control the scene, and the most important thing was to put Su Xuan to death.

Zheng Xiongcai didn't stop for long, and hurriedly went out of the city again, leading 40,000 cavalry.

Head towards Xiling Mountain.

Just after entering the boundary of Xiling Mountain, Zheng Xiong could see a lot of corpses.

It seems that the battle situation is indeed tragic.

But he felt a little strange, wasn't there a war between the two sides?

Add up to more than 100,000 people, and the scope of the battlefield should be very large. Only then did I enter the vicinity of Xiling Mountain, and I could already see the corpse.

But why didn't you hear any movement nearby?

Could it be that the two sides have already finished fighting, and the people are almost dead?

The further you go into the depths of Xiling Mountain, the more corpses you can see, but all the way in, there is still no movement.

The scouts went out and came back, constantly reporting on what they had discovered.

The mountainous terrain became more and more complicated, and it became more and more unfavorable to the cavalry, Zheng Xiong immediately ordered to leave 30,000 people to guard the periphery of Xiling Mountain, and he personally led 10,000 people to disperse and continue to advance.

On the hill on the side of the cottage, Su Xuan squatted on the ground, holding a branch and constantly painting.

At this time, Xu Ershou rushed from the bottom of the mountain, squatted in front of Su Xuan, and said quickly, "30,000 people stayed on the periphery of Xiling Mountain, and 10,000 people entered the mountain and came this way."

On weekdays, Xu Ersian's voice was huge, but now he suppressed his voice to a very low level.

After 40,000 elite horsemen entered the mountain, although their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced, the quality of the regular army was not comparable to that of the men and horses on both sides.

Since Zheng Xiong was a rapid march, it was impossible for him to carry a large number of weapons, long-distance killing weapons, and he should only have bows and arrows.

And Wang Chi and Wang Sanqian's men are all private soldiers, and in addition to making knives, guns, bows and crossbows, it is impossible to make large instruments.

The weapons and equipment on both sides should be almost equal, and the combat effectiveness is slightly on Zheng Xiong's side

High, the number of people this side is dominant.

This battle will definitely be fought.

Originally, Su Xuan only thought about exhausting the living forces under Wang Chi and Wang Sanqian, but now there is a Zheng Xiong, and he also brought 40,000 elite horsemen, if they can all be consumed, wouldn't Xing Daorong not even pick up the sesame seeds, and lose the watermelon?

Anyway, they are all people who do the Tao, so let them kill them.

The last time there was a battle in Moon Lake, Su Xuan just used various tricks to win the battle. Tactical arrangements and charges, there are princesses.

This time, Su Xuan couldn't count on the princess, so he had to personally command the battle.

"Haven't you fought with the regular army, are you afraid?" Su Xuan asked.

"Go back to your lordship, don't be afraid!" The two brothers said in unison.

Su Xuan pointed to the sketch on the ground and asked, "Can you understand it?"

"I can read it."

"They have been divided into two parts, 10,000 in the front and 30,000 in the back. I estimate that the generals are among the 10,000 people in front of them."

Su Xuan drew a line on the ground and said, "Sanfat, you take 15,000 people and go around from both sides, guard this ridge, and cut off their front and back contacts."

"Yes, sir."

"Ershi, we lead the rest of the people to fight Zheng Xiong head-on. As long as you find Zheng Xiong himself, concentrate your firepower to surround and kill him." Su Xuan said.

"My lord, there are two problems, first, although we have a large number of people, it is too difficult to pass military orders, and we cannot form an effective coordination at all. Second, if the 30,000 people outside come to reinforce them, and the three fats are sandwiched in the middle, they may be made dumplings." Xu Ershou said.

"The king's men of three thousand go and deal with the thirty thousand outside." Su Xuan said in a deep voice.
