Yijing, one hundred miles northwest.
A dusty cavalry force of thousands of people slowly appeared here. Although it could be seen that everyone in this cavalry was very tired, they still maintained an orderly formation, with hundreds of scouts on guard in all directions. , invading enemies may appear at any time...
This cavalry unit is the world-famous Youyan Cavalry, which represents the highest level of cavalry in the Great Zhou Dynasty. They are soldiers and horses under Zhao Yong, the commander-in-chief of Zhuo County. According to Zhao Yong's order, they take the road of Liucheng Township and rush for reinforcements day and night. Yi Jing, and they finally completed Zhao Yong's order and rushed to Yi Jing within five days.
"Sir, thirty miles ahead is Sanlinpo! There is no trace of the Fengwu Army within a radius of thirty miles."
A scout rode up to the commander Zhao Shuhao, dismounted, knelt down on one knee and reported:
After listening to the report of his subordinates, Zhao Shuhao nodded and turned to the subordinates beside him and ordered:
"It seems that the Fengwu Army has not discovered us yet and has ordered the entire army to advance at full speed to the target Sanlinpo. We will rest there tonight!"
"yes!"
Following Zhao Shuhao's order, the 5,000 Youyan cavalry immediately started running in attack mode, rushing towards Sanlinpo in the distance. As they left, they turned into a group of small black dots, and a small dirt bag had several A lean man stood up silently...
These men were all wearing white cotton coats and hats. Lying on the little dirt buns, they would have blended in with the ice and snow. If you didn't get close, you wouldn't have been able to spot them if you looked carefully. traces.
They are members of the newly established Feihu Battalion of the Fengwu Army. They are military elites who have stood out after layers of selection. It is precisely with their excellent skills and psychological quality and this camouflage uniform that they can hide from the Youyan Cavalry. The scouts made the enemy completely unaware that the Fengwu Army had already appeared in front of them!
After using the telescope in his hand to observe the movements of the enemy troops in the distance, Zhang Chenghu, the commander of Feihu Camp, seriously explained to his men around him:
"The Youyan Cavalry has appeared. They seem to be heading to Sanlinpo. Wang Qiang, go back and prepare the army! The rest of the soldiers and horses will follow them slowly behind me!"
"yes!"
Wang Qiang nodded, and then said:
"You guys, be careful!"
Zhang Chenghu smiled confidently, pointed to the clothes on his body and said:
"Don't worry, with these clothes, those bastards like Yan Jun will want to discover us in the next life!"
·······················
·······················
Two hours later, the Fengwu Army camp was under Yijing City.
Qi Dechao hurriedly walked into the camp and reported to Ye Mingsheng:
"My lord, news has come from Feihuying. The Youyan Cavalry has appeared around Yi Jing. It should be at Sanlinpo now!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Mingsheng's eyes flashed with light. He walked to the sand table and quickly locked the coordinates of Sanlinpo on the sand table and murmured:
"This Youyan Iron Cavalry arrived so fast, a day faster than expected!"
After speaking, Ye Mingsheng shook his head and ordered to Qi Dechao:
"After a stick of incense, all generals above the commander level will gather for a meeting!"
"yes!"
Under Ye Mingsheng's order, the senior generals in the camp quickly came to the Chinese army camp. After Qi Dechao informed General Qi Dechao, Lin Huaiwu stood up immediately without hesitation and reported to Ye Mingsheng in a deep voice:
"Sir, now that we know the enemy's location, why should we hesitate?"
"Mobilize a large army to surround Sanlinpo and strangle these bullshit Youyan cavalry there! I want to see how powerful these people are, whether they can block the red cannon or the rogue gun..." ············”
As soon as these words came out, many generals in the camp immediately responded. Seeing that Ma Zhongjun seemed to have different opinions, he hesitated and seemed to stand up and speak. Seeing this, Yuan Song gave him a look, signaling to Ma Zhongjun to calm down, and then he He stood up and raised his hands to Ye Mingsheng and said:
"General Lin is commendable for his courage, but Sanlinpo is about fifty miles away from our military camp. It is getting late now and it will be early tomorrow morning when our army arrives. By then, our soldiers will be exhausted and their horses will be exhausted, and the enemy will have to rest and recuperate all night!"
"In addition, Sanlinpo is surrounded by plains. With the vigilance of Youyan Iron Cavalry, they will find out as soon as our army arrives. By then, they may escape before our army's encirclement is formed!"
Listening to Yuan Song's objection, Lin Huaiwu seemed a little dissatisfied and asked in a deep voice:
"General Yuan, are you so sure that Youyan Cavalry can be fooled by you?"
Facing Lin Huaiwu's doubts, Yuan Song nodded calmly and said:
"I believe they will come!"
Lin Huaiwu still wanted to question it, but Ye Mingsheng waved his hand and interrupted:
"Huaiwu, it is good that you are eager to fight, but since the plan has been made, then act according to the plan! When the enemy falls into the trap, Huaiwu, your third division can take the lead in facing the enemy... ·········”
After receiving Ye Mingsheng's order, Lin Huaiwu's eyes suddenly lit up, and the unhappiness in his heart suddenly disappeared. He raised his hands to Ye Mingsheng and accepted the order:
"Huai Wu will live up to your expectations. As long as the enemy's third division has just arrived, they will be killed!"
As the general of the Second Division, one of the three main divisions of the Fengwu Army, Lin Huaiwu could not be compared with his other two colleagues Yuan Song and Guo Zhiping in the army in terms of reputation and performance. Secretly, some people even questioned Lin Huaiwu's ability.
It is said that he was able to serve as the general of the second division entirely because he was among the first group of people to follow Ye Mingsheng. In terms of ability, it was not his turn to be the general of the second division. He was the main division of the Fengwu Army who commanded the second division!
Anyone who hears such gossip will be very angry, and Lin Huaiwu is no exception. He knows very well that if he wants to silence these secret voices in the military, there is only one way, and that is to use real military exploits. Prove that your abilities are worthy of your position!
It is precisely because of this thought and holding such a breath in his heart that Lin Huaiwu regards this battle as a battle to prove himself. But so far, despite his efforts, his second division has fought under his leadership. They fought hard enough, but compared to Yuan Song's first division and Guo Zhiping's third division, they were still not outstanding enough...
Therefore, Lin Huaiwu was very eager to fight and wanted to take the lead in attacking Yi Jing, to bring out the prestige of his second division, and to bring out the prestige of Lin Huaiwu!
After appeasing Lin Huaiwu, Ye Mingsheng reconfirmed some details of the planned plan based on the latest situation, and emphasized discipline again. After doing this, Ye Mingsheng gave Yuan Song a look before announcing the breakup of the meeting. Ye Mingsheng After looking at him, Yuan Song also understood and did not leave the camp.
After everyone else had left, Ye Mingsheng asked Yuan Song:
"Yuan Song, how confident are you that you will annihilate all the enemies in the future?"
Although Ye Mingsheng had decided to take a gamble because Zhao Fuqu rushed to aid Youyan earlier than expected, but if all five thousand Youyan cavalry were wiped out and without their harassment, Ye Mingsheng could attack the city with confidence and be the first to attack the enemy. If Yijing is captured before reinforcements arrive, there is no need for Ye Mingsheng to gamble...
Facing Ye Mingsheng's inquiry, Yuan Song felt a little pressure. He pondered for a while and said very cautiously:
"There is no absolute certainty in humble duty, but humble duty will lead the army to do its best!"
Regarding Yuan Song's answer, Ye Mingsheng was a little helpless and could only say:
"Then do your best!"
"Yes, your humble position will definitely fulfill your mission!"
·······················
·······················
While Ye Mingsheng and others were having a meeting, Zhao Shuhao in the Zhongyan Army camp in Sanlinpo was also looking at the map attentively, while the scout beside him reported:
"Report to the general, the scouts have discovered that the Songjiaji behind the enemy camp is the military supply hub of the Fengwu Army. More than half of the grain, grass and ammunition of the Fengwu Army are stored in the Songjiaji. Currently, the defenders of the Songjiaji are enemy One battalion of the First Division has three thousand men!”
Listening to the scout's introduction, Zhao Shuhao pointed his finger at the Songjiaji stronghold on the map and said:
"How far is Songjiaji from the enemy? Are the defense facilities complete?"
Facing Zhao Shuhao's question, the scout thought for a moment and replied:
"Songjiaji is about fifty miles away from the enemy camp. The defense facility is just a section of earth wall. After Fengwu's army entered, they built several watchtowers!"
After hearing what the scout said, Zhao Shuhao stared at the location of the Song Family Collection on the map and started thinking.
The Youyan Iron Cavalry is the most elite fist unit of the Yan Army and is Zhao Fuqu's treasure. In order to completely control this ace unit, Zhao Fuqu also used the most common method to arrange some key positions of the Youyan Iron Cavalry. He killed his relatives and fellow villagers.
Zhao Shuhao falls into this category. He is the nephew of Zhao Fuqu's third uncle's eldest uncle's second uncle's family. Although the relationship is somewhat distant, he is a real member of the same village as Zhao Fuqu. When he wore open-crotch pants, he even ate candies given by Zhao Fuqu. , and this has become Zhao Shuhao’s most important capital for his rise to power in the Yan Army...
Although relationships are the most important asset for Zhao Shuhao to rise to power, this does not mean that Zhao Shuhao is an incompetent idiot. In fact, Zhao Shuhao is able to command five thousand people in Youyan Cavalry. In addition to being trusted by Zhao Fuqu, Zhao Shuhao also has two skills. He fought several head-to-head battles with the Luobi people. Although he didn't get any advantage from the Luobi people, he didn't suffer any big losses either.
In addition, Zhao Shuhao also wiped out several insignificant bandit caravans, and also wiped out a small unit of the Henan Army during a small friction between the Yan Army and the Henan Army. In general, Zhao Shuhao's military career of more than ten years, The experience was quite rich. Although there was nothing to write home about, I didn’t surpass it either.
This time Fengwu soldiers surrounded Yi Jing. Zhao Yong valued the identity of Zhao Shuhao's Zhao family. He felt that he should trust his family at the critical moment. He felt that Zhao Shuhao would definitely be able to risk his life to help. Zhao Shuhao also attached great importance to the mission Zhao Yong gave him.
After more than ten years of military career, Zhao Shuhao believes that his shining point is that he is very self-aware. Although he has the most elite troops of the Yan Army, he never thought that he would be Yi Jing's savior... ············
What he wanted to do was to delay the Fengwu Army's attack on Yi Jing as long as possible. Like a mosquito, when the Fengwu Army ignored him, he would fly around to disgust them, and then sniff at them suddenly. A tube of blood, if the Fengwu Army were to attack them, he would fly away and escape!
Although the Song family collection in front of him looked very attractive, for some reason Zhao Shuhao felt something was wrong!
Seeing Zhao Shuhao staring at the map without saying anything, the sentry commander Wang Lei standing aside could not sit still and said to Zhao Shuhao:
"Lord Commander, why are we still hesitating?"
"Tomorrow night we will take advantage of the situation and defeat the Song family gathering. With our combat power, half an hour is enough to resolve the battle. By the time the Fengwu Army reacts, we have already escaped. Just rely on their two-legged infantry. Don’t even think of catching us in the next life!”
As soon as Wang Lei said this, other generals on the side also echoed. Seeing this, Wang Lei looked at Zhao Shuhao with a proud face. Faced with Wang Lei's provocation, Zhao Shuhao did not speak. He knew that Wang Lei was targeting him. The previous one three months ago The commander had a relapse in old age and could no longer fight in the army, so he had to retreat to the second line...
According to the rules, Wang Lei, who had the most seniority and the best military exploits among the sentry commanders in the army, should have taken over the post of commander. However, what no one expected was that Cheng Yaojin came out halfway and knocked away the duck that Wang Lei had obtained, and airborne from above. Zhao Shuhao, a member of the Zhao family, came to serve as the leader.
Although Wang Lei was extremely dissatisfied with the military law in the army, he did not dare to make any mistakes on the surface. He could only choose this time to challenge Zhao Shuhao's authority in the army.
Faced with Wang Lei's provocation, if it were other times, Zhao Shuhao would definitely not spoil him and would definitely take care of him. But now that the war is imminent, it is the time to employ people, so Zhao Shuhao can only write down this account first. Finally, he slowly calculated, so he shook his head and said:
"Our army has just arrived, so we should observe the situation before commenting!"
Seeing that Zhao Shuhao didn't say anything, Wang Lei thought that he was scared, so he said unscrupulously:
"Sir, the fighter plane is fleeting, so why should we hesitate? The Fengwu Army might discover us at some point?"
"When they discover our traces, the defense of the Songjiaji will inevitably be strengthened. At that time, it will be difficult for us to think about the Songjiaji. The commander has nothing to think about. There is a scar on his head as big as a bowl. Ten Eight years later, he is a good man again, and his job is over..."
