Half a month later, south of Wu County.
After Taishi Ci went to the Shanyue clan to recruit Danyang soldiers, Gao Yi launched a fierce attack on Wu Commandery.
In just half a month, they captured three cities in succession and captured more than 10,000 Jiangdong soldiers.
The troops arrived directly at Wuxian County, the hometown of Jiangdong.
But the situation on the battlefield gave Gao Yi a headache.
First of all, Zhou Yu has prepared a large number of defensive equipment in Wu County, and recruited all the young men in the city to distribute weapons and act as a defensive force.
Secondly, there was a report from a spy who had sneaked into Yangzhou: Sun Quan, the new Marquis of Wu, crossed the river in person and went north to Shouchun City to meet Yuan Shu.
He worshiped him as his father-in-law, and the two parties had formed an alliance between Qin and Jin to jointly fight against the 30,000 wolf soldiers who crossed south to Yangzhou.
Three days ago, Yuan Shu's general Ji Ling had led 100,000 Huainan soldiers to cross the river by boat and attack all the way to Jiangdong.
But that's not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that the 30,000 wolf soldiers under Gao Yi's command are all from the north. They have difficulty adapting to the climate and environment of Jiangdong. They begin to be acclimatized and infected with a large number of diseases.
Forced by helplessness, Gao Yi originally thought of deciding to stop his losses in time and cross the river to return to Xuzhou, but suddenly an idea struck him and he came up with a brilliant idea.
Tune the tiger away from the mountain and attack the enemy unprepared!
Now that Ji Ling has led 100,000 Huainan soldiers to cross the Yangtze River from the south, all parts of Huainan will inevitably be empty.
Gao Yi organized warships and began to send thousands of wolf soldiers infected with the disease back to Xuzhou.
On the other hand, Gao Yi personally led the remaining 20,000 wolf soldiers and a large number of prisoners of war, going around Jiangdong to contain the main force of the enemy army.
Secretly, they sent a light cavalry division that was good at attacking from a thousand miles away, bypassing the area where the enemy crossed the river, entered Jiujiang County, and went straight to Yuan Shu's lair, Shouchun City.
And this light cavalry division, which is good at attacking thousands of miles, is the latest reward of the system: three thousand white feather light cavalry.
White Feather Qingqi is a special unit of the Beiliang Army in the "Snow" plane: Qingqi Crossbowmen.
Their main weapon is a Beiliang Jin crossbow capable of firing three arrows in volley. The crossbow body is equipped with a mechanical arrow box and has three arrow path crossbow slots. Once filled, it can fire five rounds in a row.
The secondary weapons are a saber on the waist and a small buckler on the horse's back. The mounts are two war horses that can be exchanged midway, both of which are Beiliang Qianli horses that are good at running long distances.
And Chu Lushan, the commander of the three thousand White Feather Qingqi, is by no means a kind person, but a peerless vicious man who can make people cry in silence.
In the Northern Liang Army, he was neither the best in literary talent nor the best in bravery, but because of his both civil and military skills, he was known as: the first civil and military man in the Northern Liang Army.
Although this man is as bloated as a giant ball, he is extremely agile, brave and good at fighting.
Whether the enemy is a strong force? Or an underdog? Whenever they encounter Chu Lushan, they will end in a disastrous defeat.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, the Battle of Western Shu.
Facing the majestic sword pavilion and Cui Wei, one man is in charge of the gate and the ten thousand gorges in Xishu are inaccessible. Even if they are as powerful as the 300,000 Beiliang cavalry, it is difficult to advance even an inch.
However, Chu Lushan, full of enthusiasm, personally led thousands of horses to clear the way, riding wildly on the Shu road, advancing with great joy and bravely killing the enemy, just like the arrival of the devil.
In the end, he helped 300,000 Northern Liang troops capture Western Shu and created a world-shattering feat of conquering Shu with a thousand riders.
…
Three days later, in Jiujiang County.
It was a rainy night, with thunder and lightning.
Chu Lushan led his 3,000 white-feathered Qingqi, driving through the mountains and building bridges across the water. They braved the wind and rain, stepped on the mud in the water, and traveled 600 miles day and night.
Finally arrived at Shouchun City.
On the wilderness ten miles outside Shouchun City.
Chu Lushan, who had already been soaked by the rain, stopped to look at Shouchun City in the hazy rain, weighing the pros and cons in his mind and analyzing the situation between them.
In the end, Chu Lushan decided to adopt the fastest strategy: seize the city on a rainy night!
"Pass my order and a hundred people will march out."
"To conquer a city, it all depends on your courage. On the battlefield, why should we be afraid of killing the enemy? It is a stormy night, and it is also when the enemy is most relaxed."
"I also ask all the generals of a hundred people to use the hook rope to climb up to the top of the city, open the city gate from the inside, and lead the brothers into the city to rob the lord of money, food, and beauties."
Chu Lushan has been well-known for his ruthlessness since he went on the battlefield. He was ruthless to his enemies, ruthless to himself, and even more ruthless to his soldiers.
During Chu Lushan's battles on the battlefield, he always led his soldiers to exchange lives for lives with a ferocious and ferocious fighting style, which frightened the enemy, causing the enemy to be completely annihilated or return in panic.
Often after a battle, only twenty-three out of ten of Chu Lushan's soldiers survived.
Therefore, those who can reach the position of a hundred-man general under his command are more of a werewolf than a ruthless person.
Therefore, facing the harsh requirements of climbing the city on a rainy night, the thirty hundred generals showed no fear and regarded the city wall in the rain as if it were grass.
They all followed orders and left.
Half an hour later.
Above the city gate, the sound of killing gradually began.
Under the city gate, blood flowed like a river.
A crossbow scout galloped over and reported: "General, a hundred generals have captured the city gate and are relying on the terrain to hold on and wait for reinforcements."
Chu Lushan immediately took out the cold knife from his waist, pointed at the Shouchun city gate in the distance, and shouted:
"The wind and rain are shaking and the blood is spilled. We raise the flag and ride on the horse. The world calls us demons, so we will treat them as demons... and kill them!"
Three thousand white feathered light cavalry had already gathered their strength. As Chu Lushan's military order was issued, in an instant, they attacked Shouchun City like a landslide and tsunami.
"Kill!"
Just a cup of tea.
Three thousand white-feathered light cavalry have arrived in front of the city gate, meeting up with thirty hundred generals.
At the city gate, gongs and drums roared, and alarm bells blared.
In the streets and alleys, five thousand Huainan soldiers who were on guard duty had rushed over and quickly formed a long spear formation.
In an attempt to use spear thrusts to defeat the enemy cavalry who dared to attack the city on a rainy night.
Faced with such a poor strategy.
How could three thousand white-feathered light cavalry be so stupid as to use their own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strong points?
Five hundred steps!
Four hundred steps!
Three hundred steps!
When the two sides were two hundred steps apart, three thousand White Feather Qingqi, one after another, raised their Beiliang Jin Crossbows in their hands, at a forty-five-degree angle, facing away diagonally.
Quickly release the machine grip and fire a volley.
Nine thousand feather arrows were shot high into the sky, and they fell densely into the enemy formation.
The sound of arrows piercing flesh and the screams of soldiers instantly resounded over the city gate.
Countless streams of blood shot out.
In an instant, five thousand Huainan soldiers lined up in a spear formation, forming a chaotic mess.
Countless Huainan soldiers were killed by arrows on the spot and fell in piles of blood.
"kill!"
"kill!"
"kill!"
By the time the sky was full of feather arrows, three thousand white feather light cavalry were already following the arrows to attack and kill them.
They all shouted the roar of a tiger, pulled out a Beiliang Dao from their waists, and used the momentum of their horses to slash at the enemy.
Countless Huainan soldiers were chopped into a pile of broken limbs and arms, forced to retreat step by step, and collapsed instantly.
The war horses were rushing through the streets and alleys, and the cavalrymen with steel swords in their hands slashed and killed everyone they encountered.
Like a pack of wolves, killing a group of lambs ready for the slaughter.
In the streets and alleys, tragic scenes of mountains of corpses and seas of blood can be seen everywhere. It is suffocating and gives rise to a bone-chilling chill in the liver and gallbladder.
So much so that the Huainan soldiers who rushed to rescue them were so frightened by the scenes of mountains of corpses and seas of blood that they fled in panic before they could start fighting.
