Chapter 1173: Surprise Attack on Qinghe County
Outside the city of Jizhou, ten miles away.
Su Xuan led the leading troops to join Xu Ersian.
"How's that, my lord, am I great? Look, the Jizhou army has really gone back to the city, hehe." Xu Er smiled proudly.
"Ershan, I found that your plan is good, but you didn't think about the way back at all......" Su Xuan said faintly.
"Huh? Didn't we succeed?" Xu Ershou asked.
"But we're going to besiege the city, and we're going to have to stay on this water for a while." Su Xuan said.
"Ah......h Hey...... It doesn't matter." Xu Ershou smiled.
It turned out that everyone was wading in the water, and the water was not deep, and it did not flood all the outside of Jizhou City. The entire outside of Jizhou City looks like a swamp.
At this time, Xu Ersian jumped off the horse, grabbed it in the water, and actually caught a big carp of more than a catty.
"Hehe, sir, will you grill fish for me tonight?" You see, this natural grain and grass does not cost anything." Xu Er smiled proudly.
"Good guy, it's been such a time, and I still want Lao Tzu to cook for you." Su Xuan didn't have a good airway.
"That's, mainly because every time I grill the fish, it's burnt, and the fish you grill is called crispy on the outside and tender on the inside." Xu Ershou said.
"What's the situation in Jizhou City, have you inquired about it?" Su Xuan asked.
"That's natural, the number of troops in the city is about 20,000 more than we estimated, and the total strength is about 150,000, which is 50,000 more than us." Xu Ershou said.
Then Xu Er flew on his horse and whispered, "Do you want me to take the Shenji Battalion into the city and arrest that Cui Yuanye first?" And so the battle is over."
"What you think is so beautiful, Jizhou is a big city, it's easy for you to bring people in, but you still want to come out easily after you catch someone? What an international joke?" Su Xuan said.
"Ah, this ......."
At this time, several cavalry galloped over the water.
One person flew off his horse and bowed his hand towards Su Xuan: "The vanguard officer of the Shen family's army is a thousand years old! Qi Qi Chitose Lord, General Shen has arrived, in the west of Jizhou City, about forty miles away from here. The vanguard force has 5,000 men, and the march of the army is a little slower, and it will probably take a day or so to arrive."
"Go back and spread the word, let Shen Qi stand still, and not reveal his whereabouts for the time being, wait for my order." Su Xuan said.
"Yes! By the way, not long ago, General Shen captured Cui Shenji, the eldest son of the Cui clan in Qinghe, and captured 300 firecrackers." Said the pioneer officer.
Hearing this, Su Xuan and Xu Ersan instantly broke their work.
"Poof~"
Three hundred firecrackers, that was bought by the Qinghe Cui clan for three million taels of silver.
As a result, he was robbed by Shen Qi?
Originally, Su Xuan thought that Shen Qi should have nothing to do with Cui Shenji.
That kid is very smart, and he is also a good hand at leading troops into battle. And Cui Shenji has a fire gun, so it shouldn't fall into Shen Qi's hands.
Su Xuan also made it clear that he didn't have to worry about the harassment in the rear on the road, and he had to lead the troops to Jizhou City as soon as possible.
This surprised Su Xuan.
It seems that this business is not a loss at all.
It's just an empty glove white wolf.
"Got it, don't kill Cui Shenji yet, keep him, it may be useful in the future." Su Xuan said.
"Yes!"
Several soldiers immediately turned around and left.
At this time, another cavalry galloped in.
"Newspaper~"
This soldier belonged to the Wushuang Army, and Su Xuan recognized it at a glance.
"Chitose Lord, General Taiping is going to lead troops to attack Qinghe County, he said that Chitose Lord should not be exposed first, and ambush a group of soldiers and horses outside the city first, so as not to cut off them from transmitting information. Waiting for Jizhou City to send troops, Chitose Lord can first destroy a part of the Jizhou army." The soldier said.
"Huh? Not bad, not bad."
Su Xuan also thought of a surprise attack on Qinghe County, and he did the same, and he had already sent Chunfeng to it.
But Su Xuan didn't expect that Taiping would actually want to go with him.
And Taiping is a little more than Su Xuan thought.
This is a typical encirclement point reinforcement.
Su Xuan felt that he should also think of this tactic, but he was still negligent.
Taiping is really a talent.
"Got it."
Qinghe County is the second only city in the boundary of Jizhou, located in the middle of Jizhou and the Central Plains, less than 200 miles away from Jizhou City.
Judging from the marching speed of the light cavalry, Su Xuan had just arrived outside Jizhou City, and the spring breeze should be approaching.
The spring breeze should arrive before the Taiping, and the Taiping will arrive later.
The two joined forces together, with a total of 10,000 troops.
Attacking Qinghe County by surprise and taking Qinghe County in one fell swoop is not a big problem.
At this time, the spring breeze had already arrived outside Qinghe County.
Since it was a rapid march, it was basically a light march.
The only tools that can climb the city wall are hooks, not even ladders.
Now that the Jizhou army is all concentrated in Jizhou City, there should not be many garrison forces in Qinghe County.
Chunfeng thought to himself, taking Qinghe County is not a big problem.
Since there are not enough siege equipment, the difficulty of the siege will be relatively large.
Chunfeng is a fierce general, but he is not without a little brain.
It's afternoon, and it's almost dark.
It is definitely not possible to attack the city during the day, even if they are brave and brave without a peerless army, under the premise of lack of siege equipment, it will be difficult to eat Qinghe County.
But it must be fought, and only a wave directly hitting the city wall can achieve the purpose of a surprise attack.
Therefore, after nightfall, 5,000 people climbed the city wall with hooks and claws at the same time, and they would definitely be able to catch Qinghe County off guard.
The spring breeze rode on a horse, and the armor on his body was the armor of the deputy general of the Wushuang Army, which was not only powerful and domineering, but also very sexy.
Thinking about the past, the four of them stood behind Xiao Jinghan at the same time, what a beautiful scenery was that?
But now that the spring breeze has also grown, she can already take charge on her own.
She is now standing in front of the army, and it is still a very beautiful landscape.
Now she has an aura far more powerful than before.
"Give the order, rest on the spot, eat and drink enough, wait for night, and the whole army will attack the city. Tonight, we are bound to take Qinghe County in one fell swoop!" The spring breeze said in a deep voice.
"Command!"
Time flies, and it's night.
The 5,000 cavalry led by the spring breeze were all hidden in the night.
"Tonight, all of them are pioneers! In addition to the general, the first to climb the city wall will have a bounty of one hundred! Brothers, we have been training in Huining City for more than a year, and the quality of our Spring Breeze Camp should be no worse than that of the Shenji Battalion. Let me take a good look at the results of our training for more than a year, let's go, attack the city!"
The spring breeze dismounted directly and chose to move forward on foot.
All 5,000 horsemen dismounted, and all marched on foot.
Then, the army quickly dispersed and poured in all directions towards Qinghe County.
The spring breeze headed towards the city gates.
Downstairs at the gate of the capital, the spring breeze raised his hand, and all the soldiers around him leaned against the city wall, stopped, and did not make a sound.
This is the quality of the Musou Army.
