When Yang Kai came out of Xiaogan, he let the convoy that transported cloth armor equipment and other materials go first for half a day, and they didn't stop hurrying, and they were also delivered in the middle of the night, and they should be carried into the courtyard.

The officers and officials of the various armies of Deng Fang's army with more than 1,000 households came one by one.

The first thing was that Yang Kai took a set of clothes to wear on his body, and these cloth armors were made according to the style worn by the officials and soldiers, with thick cotton.

There is no way to achieve complete uniformity by hand, and the victory is that there is no problem with keeping warm and protecting the body, and it does not look bloated, let alone hinder action. The iron pieces on his chest were cold, and the iron pieces touched together, and the bell sounded.

"Is the general going into battle himself?" Yan Hou saw him dressed and armored in front of everyone and asked.

"It's been a long time since I've fought the enemy with you." Yang Kai patted the battle armor on his body.

"Although General Ben is not with you, he knows the suffering of all families in his heart, this is the cloth armor that General Ben brought to you, there are weapons outside, it is cold, and every thousand households bring these cloth armor when they return, don't let the brothers freeze their bodies."

Yan Hou and Deng Fang both knew that he was boosting morale, so they didn't interject anymore, just stood aside and watched, deeply admired, at this time, where is there anyone in the army who remembers that they just lost a battle?

None of the thousands of households who came to the hall were not infected by it, and they were impassioned.

The rangers sent out had already detected the situation in the mountain pass, and the officers and troops had indeed touched in, but they were not in a hurry to attack, but were adjusting their artillery, and the leader of the officers and troops should be a man who only sought victory in stability.

Yang Kai picked up his treasure sword, hung it on his waist, walked up to Lu Yuan'an, looked at him and said, "Gather the cavalry in the city, is it enough for you a quarter of an hour?" ”

"The general will give the villain half an hour!"

"Okay, be the vanguard and charge the first formation of the enemy camp and hand it over to Lu Qianhu."

Regardless of whether the officers and troops were adjusting their artillery or not, they would take the battlefield of the mountain pass for a maximum of one hour, and while their foothold was unstable, they would let the cavalry attack them for a while, so that they could observe their combat strength and distinguish their capabilities.

Lu Yuanan was waiting for Yang Kai's order, so he took the order, took his armament and turned out.

The news of the enemy's attack soon spread throughout the city with the sound of the trumpet of the assembly, and there was a commotion in the city......

Yang Kai thought for a moment and ordered, "Send a few teams of brothers to appease the residents of the city." Tell them that Ben will swear to protect them. ”

In the frenzied wind, the flag bearer struggled to hold the flag, Lu Yuanan came to the cavalry camp and shouted loudly, and the old brothers shouted and scolded, kicking and beating the soldiers to get out of the warm quilt.

The wind was so strong that the torches were lit and extinguished.

Five flags were lit at the gate of the city to illuminate the direction. The flagpole is six feet high, the full-width red silk flag is two feet long, and the top of the flagpole is hung with two dead wind lanterns, which are very eye-catching in the dark and dark windy night.

The soldiers gathered fast and slow, and Yang Kai's orders came into the army one by one.

The hundred-man team that had been assembled first raised their defensive equipment and rushed to the city wall to reinforce the city. Deng Fang's personal soldiers also received an order, and Yang Kai allocated the two hundred people brought to them to patrol and guard along the streets, and declared martial law, regardless of men, women, and children, all of them were forbidden to go out.

In the hall of the official mansion, torches are all over the place, swaying and swaying, and the lights are bright.

The expressions of the remaining people who had not received the order returned to seriousness, and they followed Yang Kai, their whole bodies draped, and they sat down in the hall.

Yang Kai took the letter from the hands of his own soldiers, his eyes were blazing, he showed a circle, and said: "Just today, our army has captured the city of Wuchang Mansion, and the generals of the left battalion must have all been stationed now, this time into the lake, there is no need to worry about the east side, the enemy knows the news, and the morale will drop sharply, and there needs to be a fierce general, covered by Lu Qianhu's cavalry formation, through the enemy formation, and spread the news in the name of the left battalion." Who wants to go? ”

The generals stepped forward at the same time and took the initiative to ask for help, and even Deng Fang took a step forward and stood up.

Yang Kai glared at him, even if he came now, Deng Fang was the backbone of this team, and he couldn't go; Han Bin and Chen Yuzhu, who are the most suitable for this kind of task, one is on the road, the other is still in Wuchang, and the old oilman is left with Yan Hou, and his eyes finally fell on Yan Hou:

"There is no more suitable person than Yan Shenjiang, this is a great responsibility,!"

A few days ago, in the city of De'an Mansion, Cai Qian and Wei Shisan sat in front of the generals in a beautiful manner, and they were still holding the woman rewarded by Yang Kai in their hands.

Today, there is such an opportunity to make meritorious contributions to leading women, and the competitive heart is together, and there are all kinds of dangers, and I don't think about it at all. His blood boiled: "The general waits, one day at most, and he will definitely send Dingzhou's reply back!" ”

"But before that, the villain still has a plan."

"What's the plan?"

"Our army has been living in Yingcheng for many days, according to the villain's observation, the cold wind has been blowing from the northwest direction recently, and the enemy's attack on the west gate is not conducive to our army, if the south gate is attacked, it can be of great use.

If our army chooses a fierce general, seals the west gate, and makes the south gate the main direction of attack of the official army, and the south gate of the city is eastward, we can send an army to rush to the city, take more soil and sand, shake it away in the wind, and raise sand and dust on the head of the city, and chase the enemy. ”

Yang Kai was overjoyed, this kind of strategy can also be thought of by people like him, he has never been easy to speak foul language, and he almost scolded two words of dogmatism with joy.

After that, he ordered his own soldiers and soldiers to patrol the city, using pots and pans as containers, and all of them went to the back mountains to collect soil.

Yanhou laughed, turned around, strode out of the hall, and went to the city gate to wait for Lu Yuanan.

The sound of the golden drums, horns, officers, foot soldiers, and cavalry running chaotically of the troops assembled outside the hall rose and fell with the wind.

In the hall, Yang Kai listened attentively for a moment, and said: "Yan Shen General said that if you want to choose a general and seal the West Gate, who can do it?" ”

The remaining thousand households were nervous, and one of them said: "The villain is willing to lead the headquarters and rush to the west city gate." ……”

The defeated army of Yamaguchi has a name for him, if he loses this battle and is held responsible, Lu Yuanan will soon make up for it, and he is still sitting in the hall, still afraid that Yang Kai will ask for his head. Therefore, without waiting for Yang Kai to take the roll call, he took the initiative to request.

The north and east gates were in the rear, and it was impossible for the enemy to appear, so the main force only needed to arrange the west and south gates. He named a person and ordered him to lead a team of two hundred households to carry the city defense tools to the head of Ximen City and get ready.

The man was commanded.

There was a faint sound of horses' hooves galloping in the wind, and the tea bowl on the desk shook slightly. If you want to accurately understand the enemy's situation, you still need to see it with your own eyes, and Yang Kaibao knife hangs:

"There is no urgency in this matter, I know that the other side can win a hundred battles, and when I see the strength of the enemy clearly, it is not too late to come to this general to ask for battle, and I also ask the generals to follow me to the city and watch my cavalry rush to the enemy camp."

He must seize all the time to understand the enemy's combat effectiveness, and also help his own officers and men understand the enemy's combat effectiveness.

The city wall was full of soldiers, and the torches shone brightly, and the panicked face was undoubtedly revealed. In the face of battle, it is not the ferocity of the enemy that is afraid, but the unclear situation of the enemy and the sudden attack that will most affect the morale and morale of the army, just like the situation in the mountain pass in front of us. Yang Kai's expression was not revealed, his mind was spinning rapidly, and the morale of the officers was stabilized, how could he think of a way to stabilize the morale of the army?

He ascended to the top of the tower and looked ahead. I couldn't see clearly, but I could see the torches flowing. The gates of the city were wide open, and the iron horsemen rolled wildly. Lu Yuanan took the lead, with less than 1,000 cavalry, galloping out of the city, and the momentum was equally magnificent.

Yang Kai really wanted to personally command this first battle of the Rushing Formation, but when he first arrived, he needed to stabilize the plate even more and not let it turn over.

He didn't expect Lu Yuanan to be able to break through the enemy as soon as he could, as long as he could accurately detect the enemy's military strength, it was enough.

The wind is getting stronger.

Suddenly, his heart moved, and he looked up to the sky and laughed. He mustered up all his strength and laughed loudly, and the laughter spread far away, and the officers and non-commissioned officers who heard it were stunned and looked at them.
