Of course Xu Youchang understood the meaning of Li Jiangyao's words and couldn't help laughing: "What? Are you targeting Geerhan's left army?"
Li Jiangyao also smiled and nodded, reached out and patted Xu Youchang on the shoulder and said: "Gerhan can be considered an old friend of ours. Since the war started, he has been ignored and has no sense of existence at all. If you don't pay more attention to him, I’m really sorry for the friendship between the two parties.”
"Which army are you going to take?" Xu Youchang said solemnly, "Our first army can set off at any time."
Du Jian shouted from the side: "General Xu, I have to say something to you. You ambush Mohadi and take the lead. Our Second Army has been waiting for so long. No matter what, it is the Fire Legion's turn to take action. Alright?"
Xu Youchang smiled: "Du Jian, don't worry. To attack the left army, you need to be unexpected and as fast as lightning. This of course requires cavalry, and your second army is all heavy infantry. How can you still run?" Over four horse legs?”
Du Jian glared and said unconvinced: "Not to mention, we usually do nothing else but specialize in running. Wearing more than 40 kilograms of iron armor on our bodies may not mean we are slower than your cavalry!"
Xu Youchang laughed: "Okay, when I have time, I will send my brothers to compare with you, but let's forget it this time. There is no such thing as childishness in the army. You heavy infantry should hold your position firmly."
Li Jiangyao raised his hand to stop Du Jian who was about to continue arguing, and said calmly: "Don't grab it. I don't need any of the three armies this time. I only have two thousand white robes."
"What?! Two thousand white robes?" After hearing this, the generals couldn't help but burst into an uproar on the spot, expressing surprise and opposition.
Holia said anxiously: "Sir, are you kidding me? Even if Geerhan's left army is useless, it will only have 70,000 or 80,000 troops. General Montenegro's Shenhua Army only has a mere 10,000 troops. Plus you What use can these two thousand white-robed troops do?"
"What do you know?" Li Jiangyao smiled slightly and said leisurely: "Soldiers are more valuable than more elites. What's more, with the combat power of the White Robe Army, one can at least be equal to ten. You must not think that I am arrogant and guilty. I have made the mistake of underestimating the enemy. If I am not completely sure, how can I take the risk? The question I am thinking about is that although Alik Jiang has withdrawn his troops now, there is no guarantee that this cunning and changeable guy will suddenly come back and kill us. . In addition, we need to be more vigilant about the two major camps of the Turks. Therefore, to deal with the left army at the moment, the troops cannot be deployed too much, otherwise it will really be a waste of time and greed for success. Du Jian, you lead the Second Army of Agni. , immediately seize the Pansong Ferry abandoned by the enemy, re-establish coastal defenses, and continue to send troops to monitor the retreat of the Central Route Army, and must not relax at all. Friend Commander, Princess, you will wait until Du Jian successfully captures the Ulundu River position , immediately lead the army back to Metasequoia City, while resting and healing, while closely monitoring the movements of the two Turkic camps. When I finish taking care of Geerhan, I will come back to discuss the next move with you."
Having said that, Li Jiangyao didn't wait for anyone to say anything else, and quickly walked down the observation deck with Lin Feng, met up with the two thousand white-robed elites who had been waiting for a long time, and left with whips raised.
-
"Sir, the brothers are all ready." Lin Feng sat on his horse and reported to Li Jiangyao: "Are you really not thinking about it anymore? You should be more sure of stealing a camp at night. Now in broad daylight, we As soon as you show up, you will be discovered immediately."
Li Jiangyao slowly pulled out the Xingluo Knife from its leather sheath, and responded easily: "It doesn't matter. I show up suddenly in broad daylight. This is exactly the effect I want."
As the general drew his sword, the two thousand ghost-faced white-robed troops behind him also revealed their weapons. Through the gaps in the iron masks, everyone's eyes shine with a breathtaking light.
Infected by Li Jiangyao's heroic spirit, Lin Feng put aside his hesitation and shouted behind him: "Trumpeter, get ready!"
Li Jiangyao concentrated his attention and observed the distance for a while, then nodded slightly. Upon seeing this, Lin Feng immediately waved his right hand downwards, and several trumpeters immediately puffed up their cheeks and blew the horn of attack.
Woo——woo——
"Brothers, follow me!" Li Jiangyao raised the sword above his head, shouted suddenly, and then rushed out of the dense forest at the lead. Two thousand white-robed soldiers raised their whips and rode closely behind him, constantly increasing their speed.
The sound of hooves roared, smoke and dust flew, and a cloud of white flying flowers swept over!
At this time, the left army of the Western Xinjiang Alliance, under the command of King Geerhan of Chechi, was attacking Dabancheng with all its strength, which was guarded by the Shenhua Army.
I don't know whether it was because they couldn't attack for a long time, or they were deliberately doing errands in order to preserve their strength. Anyway, the Western Xinjiang coalition forces attacking the city didn't seem to be working very hard. There are only three square formations and about 6,000 infantrymen currently engaged in the battle.
Moreover, they did not choose to besiege the city and fight fiercely, but only attacked the west wall.
The rest of the main force gathered around Geerhan and lined up outside the west gate of Dabancheng to watch the battle.
It can be said that the sudden appearance of the White Robe Army did have an extremely shocking effect.
As soon as the melodious horn sounded in the dense forest in the distance, it immediately attracted all the attention of both the attackers and defenders above and below the city. Almost everyone subconsciously stopped their movements and turned their heads to look at the place where the horn sound came from.
What came into view the next second was a large white flying flower that seemed to fill the entire world.
Although there are only two thousand people, compared to the attacking and defending sides of Dabancheng, they are only a small part of their own strength. However, the high-spirited killing intent exuded by the white-robed army was incomparable to thousands of armies.
It was such a small cavalry array. With the white cloak flying, the whole team quickly approached the city. Everyone present had an unshakable feeling in their hearts - like a mountain, like a sea. unstoppable!
"Long live my emperor! Kill, kill, kill!"
The white-robed army suddenly shouted a thunderous charge cry, which hit the hearts of every Western Xinjiang coalition soldier.
The sound was like a huge stone thrown into the water, causing huge ripples. Fear and chaos were the ripples that spread outwards, spreading rapidly among the left army camp in the blink of an eye.
The square formations closest to the White Robes did not have the courage to turn around and attack. People relied entirely on their primitive survival reactions to dodge crazily to both sides, trying their best to avoid the White Robes' charge route.
Just like that, an exaggerated crack appeared in the most unexpected place.
Those other phalanxes that had been dodged by the friendly troops in the back row and directly faced the white-robed army also did not hesitate and continued to flee to the side in the same way.
For a moment, people seemed to be avoiding death, shouting, pushing, and crowding, desperately trying to hide in a safe area! Escape away from the White Robes!
Compared with the panic of the Western Xinjiang coalition forces, it was a different scene at the top of Dabancheng City.
The soldiers guarding the city stared blankly at first as the white flying flowers suddenly appeared and got closer and closer, with expressions of disbelief on their faces. Immediately afterwards, shouts like a roaring mountain and a tsunami resounded through the city one after another.
Whether it was the garrison of the Zhenjiang Army or the tribal warriors of the Shenhua Family, they were all dancing, shouting, dancing, waving their weapons wildly, and bursting into tears with excitement.
The little Prince of the Divine Flower, Kuliban, who looked slightly haggard, jumped onto the wall of the city wall regardless of the danger, pointed into the distance with his sword, and shouted to everyone: "Brothers, Your Excellency is here to reinforce us! Open your eyes and look. , that is the invincible ghost-faced white-robed army! Long live my lord! Long live the white-robed army!"
"Long live! Long live!" The soldiers and civilians of Dabancheng cheered, and once again set off waves of shouts that resounded through the sky.
Seeing that morale has reached an unimaginable level, how could Chief Heishan, the commander-in-chief of the Shenhua Legion, miss this opportunity? He raised the giant mountain-cutting ax in his hand and shouted like thunder: "My sons, reinforcements have arrived! Follow me out of the city to kill the thieves!"
"Let's go! Kill the thief! Kill!"
At this moment, the defenders had completely entered a state of madness, and even the common people in the city were infected. People picked up all kinds of weapons, sticks and hatchets, and rushed to the city gate with shouts.
In the blink of an eye, the west gate of Dabancheng was opened with a bang, and thousands of soldiers and horses swarmed out, charging bravely towards the Western Xinjiang coalition forces that were retreating in panic. The offensive and defensive battle that was going on around the city a moment ago immediately turned into a fighting battle on the plains and wilderness due to the unexpected arrival of the white robe army.
Although the Western Xinjiang Left Army has an absolute advantage in terms of strength, its formation has been disrupted, its morale has been shattered, and its overall collapse is only a matter of time. Geerhan has been on the battlefield for a long time, and of course he understands the dire situation in front of him, and there is basically no possibility of recovery.
Instead of staying where he was and struggling to his death and missing the opportunity to escape, it would be better to run away quickly.
He also knew that the weaklings of the subordinate countries could not rely on them at this time, and allowing them to cut off the rear cover was just a waste of time, so he immediately issued an order to ask the two most heroic and capable divisions under his command to set up one after another. The defense line is desperately trying to block the Black Mountain and White Robe Army, even if it can only be blocked for a moment and a half.
Geerhan had the consciousness that a strong man would cut off his wrist, and exchanged his own precious little life for the elites of his direct lineage.
On the battlefield outside Daban City, it was a one-sided situation. From the beginning, there was no confrontation at all. It was just a desperate pursuit. Li Jiangyao reined in his horse, looked left and right at the white-robed soldiers who were whizzing past him, and quickly shouted to Lin Feng who was not far away: "Lin Feng! Don't just stab people! Ouch! Be gentle! Come on! Go and inform Kuriban and Montenegro, and tell them not to kill them all, those who are alive are valuable! Catch the alive ones for me!"
