PS: Second update

With these thousand cavalry, Xia Yu will burn all of Zheng Xiu's grain and grass tonight!

That night, Xia Yu and Bai Pengfei took the thousand cavalry out of Tongming City, all the way to the north, and went straight to Qingyan City. After running for two days and one night in the dense North Mountain, in the evening of the next day, Xia Yu and the others finally walked out of the North Mountain and came to the foot of the North Mountain. Walking further down, you will enter the boundary of Qingyan City, standing on the hillside, you can even see Qingyan City and the nearby farmland in the distance, so Xia Yu immediately ordered to stop advancing.

"Everyone, rest in place, let's move at midnight. Xia Yu turned his horse's head and shouted a command to the soldiers behind him. "Besides, there's no need to set up a sentry, I'll keep a sentry. ”

The cavalry were amazed, for there had never been such a thing as a commander sentry. One of the adjutants immediately said: "General, you have been running for two days like us, and you should also take a good rest." ”

Xia Yu smiled at the adjutant: "I'm fine, you go and rest." This is an order, let me go to sleep, tonight's battle is very important, if anyone gives me a sloppy eye, it will be dealt with by military law!!"

"Yes! got it!" shouted the cavalrymen in unison.

Xia Yu nodded: "Very good, now, sleep!"

Although the cavalry that Qin Song gave to Xia Yu were all elite, they were also tired from the two consecutive days of running, and most of them fell asleep. As a monk, Xia Yu is naturally more patient than ordinary people, and it is no problem for him to be a sentry alone.

"The technique of multiple shadow clones!" Xia Yu tied his horse to a large tree, and then sealed his hands. "Bang bang bang" After a burst of white smoke, Xia Yu immediately had six more Xia Yu by his side. "A few of you are on guard, a few of you, go down the hill and investigate. ”

"Understood!" Xia Yu replied in unison, and then went about their duties.

At this time, Xia Yu suddenly heard two soldiers chatting in a whisper next to him, because of Xia Yu's physique, his hearing was much stronger than that of ordinary people, the voices of these two soldiers were very small, but Xia Yu heard them clearly.

"Well, I said. Our Xia Yu general is really good. He actually kept a vigil in person to let us rest. ”

"Yes, I was quite complaining when the young master gave us to Tongming City, but now I look at it. Lord Xia Yu is so sympathetic to us. Even if it was worth dying for him. ”

Xia Yu didn't expect that his decision would have the effect of winning people's hearts. He had just wanted to give the soldiers a good rest and prepare for the midnight battle. However, it is also a good thing to get the loyalty of this group of soldiers, so Xia Yu didn't say anything. He pretended not to hear, but smiled softly, and then jumped up from the ground, jumped onto the top of a large tree, opened his eyes, and looked at the farmland below. Bai Pengfei also jumped up and said, "Brother Yu, why don't you take a break, I'll just keep vigil." ”

Xia Yu shook his head: "I'm fine, but you, aren't you tired?"

Bai Pengfei smiled: "Brother Yu, you know me, I am as strong as a cow." ”

Xia Yu reconnoitred Qingyan City and the farmland below the mountain for a while with his white eyes, and found that the defense of Qingyan City was very lax, and the farmland was almost not guarded by soldiers.

Time passed quickly, and Xia Yu only felt that after a while, midnight came. He immediately retracted his shadow clone and woke up all the cavalry.

"Everyone, wrap all your horses' hooves in cloth!" Xia Yu ordered, which can reduce the sound of the horses' hooves on the ground, so as to achieve the effect of surprise attacks, and in the dark night, it can also prevent the enemy from finding Xia Yu through the sound of horses' hooves or horseshoe prints.

After receiving the order, these elite cavalry immediately quickly wrapped their horses with "foot wraps", and then Xia Yu gave another order, and thousands of soldiers immediately jumped on their horses. Xia Yu rode a horse and stood in front of this group of tiger and wolf soldiers, and said sharply: "I have heard clearly, everyone, immediately extinguish the torches in your hands, everyone follows me, take me as an order, I will light the fire, and you will be allowed to light the fire." We only talk about one word in this surprise attack, and that is "fast!" "It must come like a wind, go like lightning, and run away after setting fire, understand?!"

"Understood!" replied the soldiers, in a sonorous voice.

"Good. Xia Yu nodded, and then shouted. "Let's go!"

Xia Yu led the cavalry down the hillside, all around was pitch black, except for the "poof" sound of the horse's hooves wrapped in cotton cloth stepping on the ground, there was no sound at all, this cavalry team was like a dagger of death, quietly rushed to the farmland, and at this time, Qingyan City was still immersed in sleep. Five hundred meters, three hundred meters, one hundred meters, when Xia Yu's troops rushed to only fifty meters away from the farmland, Xia Yu finally shouted: "Ignition!"

As soon as Xia Yu gave the order, the cavalry behind him immediately lit all the torches and threw them towards the farmland on both sides, and the farmland immediately burst into flames. Xia Yu took his arson group, like a sharp sword, deeply into the farmland, and ran around the farmland around Qingyan City at the fastest speed, where the cavalry ran, the fire burned, plus the evening breeze blew, in less than a moment, thousands of hectares of fertile land fell into a sea of fire, and the thick fire even illuminated the sky above Qingyan City as if it was day!

Zheng Xiu was sleeping soundly, but he was suddenly woken up by a quick knock on the door, he struggled on the bed for a while, and finally got up from the bed with a displeased expression, "Come in." ”

The door slammed open, and a soldier rushed in with an arrow and knelt in front of Zheng Xiu: "General, something is wrong!

"It's on fire?!" Zheng Xiu immediately came to his senses and stood up from the bed, "Where is the fire?"

"Outside the city, all our food has been burned!"

"What?!" Zheng Xiu's face suddenly changed greatly, he pushed the soldiers away, rushed out like the wind, and ran to the city wall to look outside. And behold, the fire was blazing all around, and his wheat was all gone. "Damn!" Zheng Xiu was extremely annoyed, scolded loudly, and then immediately ordered his subordinates. "Pass my orders, and the whole army will assemble!"

But at this time, Xia Yu and the others had already returned to the foot of the North Mountain, and took advantage of the night to rush into the dense North Mountain.

Xia Yu fought this battle very beautifully, and the 1,000 cavalry he brought out were unharmed, but Zheng Xiu's grain and grass were burned at all. Other than that. Xia Yu also gained 500 skill points from the anime system as a result. After returning to Tongming City, the city celebrated, and the people of Tongming City ate pot pulp and welcomed them. Xia Yu and the cavalry were greeted heroically. This surprise attack also greatly boosted the momentum of the people in the north. Because since the outbreak of the Northern War. The wolf-headed army was like a bamboo, and in less than half a month, they successively captured the two heavy cities of Wind Helmet City and Qingyan City, and almost conquered and won the battle. It greatly encouraged the confidence of the people of the North. And this victory of Xia Yu is the first victory of the people of the north, it can be said to be a timely rain, and its symbolic significance even exceeds its strategic significance.

However, as the planner and executor of this battle, Xia Yu's face did not have a trace of joy, he ordered Wang Jin to meet the people who were celebrating, and he immediately summoned Xia Xue and others, and held another military meeting in the hall of the Xia family.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this victory is certainly gratifying, but in fact, our shape is even more severe than before the victory. Xia Yu's gaze swept over everyone in turn, and he said slowly. "Zheng Xiu is young and aggressive, we burned his grain and grass, he must be furious, originally he would postpone the attack on us because he wanted to harvest grain, but now that his grain and grass are gone, the reason for postponing the attack has disappeared, so he will definitely immediately launch an attack on Tongming City, I estimate that in less than three days, Zheng Xiu will definitely send troops!"

In fact, such a joint reaction Xia Yu had already guessed before the action, but even so, Zheng Xiu's grain and grass must be burned, if Zheng Xiu was allowed to raise grain and grass for the sake of temporary peace, it would be tantamount to drinking water to quench his thirst, and when Zheng Xiu's 30,000 iron horsemen came to Tongming City with enough grain and grass, then Xia Yu and they really had no chance at all.

Although Zheng Xiu will still send troops now, the combat effectiveness of the 30,000 hungry cavalry will be greatly reduced, and the Wind Helmet City is far away from Tongming City, and the grain and grass will definitely not be delivered for a while, as long as Xia Yu can hold out for a while, and when Zheng Xiu completely runs off the grain and grass, then his 30,000 iron cavalry will definitely be self-defeating.

After Xia Yu finished speaking, everyone immediately fell into silence, everyone's expressions were very solemn, and he could only continue to say when he saw this: "Everyone, there is no time for us to panic or hesitate now, everyone must be ready to fight, as long as we unite as one, we will definitely be able to defeat Zheng Guo!"

"Brother Yu is right!" After Xia Yu finished speaking, Bai Pengfei was immediately the first to stand up, and waved his arms vigorously, "It's a big deal, a manly man, afraid of a bird feather?!"

Bai Pengfei's stunned appearance amused everyone, and the atmosphere immediately eased a lot.

So, Xia Yu said to Bai Pengfei: "Pengfei, how is the training of the three-dimensional mobile force?"

Bai Pengfei immediately patted his chest hard: "Don't worry, Brother Yu, you can already fight!"

But after Bai Pengfei finished speaking, Xia Xue immediately retorted: "Xia Yu, don't listen to Pengfei's bragging, the three-dimensional mobile force is still far behind, they have just learned how to fly in the sky." ”

Bai Pengfei sat down unwillingly and muttered: "It's enough to fly." ”

Xia Yu pondered for a moment, and then asked, "Xia Xue, where is the three-dimensional mobile device, how much has it been produced?"

Xia Xue sighed lightly: "Time is too urgent, only three hundred pieces have just been produced now, and all of them have been delivered to the three-dimensional mobile force." ”

Xia Yu nodded, and then turned his head to look at Bai Pengfei: "Pengfei, let's teach them the formation now, be sure to let all your people learn the formation in three-dimensional combat within three days." ”

"Understood!" Bai Pengfei said categorically.

As soon as Bai Pengfei's words were finished, Wang Jin suddenly rushed in from outside the hall. Xia Yu saw Wang Jin's nervous look on his face and asked, "Wang Jin, what's wrong?"

Wang Jin took a breath and said nervously: "Oh no, Xia Yu, the spies just came to report, and they found a troop not far outside the city, with thousands of people!"

Xia Yu's face immediately changed: "What?!" (to be continued......
