The next day, the princess led the Eight Hundred Dragon Cavalry Army and escorted the supplies together with military advisor Ji Chenggong.
"Mother, why are you here?"
"My son and daughter-in-law are here! We are killing wolf bandits on the front line, how can I stay at home? Look, here are a hundred barrels of kerosene, a hundred cans of stone pot ashes, 50 sets of repeating crossbows, and a hundred sets of snake scale armor."
"Thank you, Li is coming."
"Now that the things have been delivered, mother-in-law, you should go back."
"Where are you going? I'm in Juma City."
"no"
"You are my son. You have to do it even if you don't want to. It's not impossible if you want to stay, but you have to obey me, regardless of any orders."
"Okay, you are the general guarding the city, so I will listen to you."
"A military order is established,"
"You, stand up now"
Ouyang Xue was curious when she saw the giant log at the city gate.
"What's this"
"Trebuchet. A type of catapult."
"I've seen the Ministry of Industry's catapults, but they don't look like this."
"This is an improved version of a rock-trebuchet. It can throw farther and be more powerful."
At this time, I happened to see the soldiers practicing mastery. Four people carried and put the boulder into the nest. The soldier picked up the sledgehammer, and there was a clang. The iron ball like a weight fell, the lever was lifted, and the mound of soil in front was smashed with a bang. Smashed flat, raising dust all over the sky
"Amazing"
Entering the south of the city, you will find that the layout of the city is much the same as before.
""What a clever plan is this?"
Concubine, please keep this under wraps first, don’t say anything.”
"Going to the north of the city and looking around, I saw two conical spiked wooden stakes stuck diagonally into the ground."
"This is the hedgehog pile"
"Yes, if the enemy soldiers charge, their speed will be greatly reduced, which will greatly give the archers a chance to shoot."
"Wen'er, have you ever thought about it, if they surround you but don't attack, it's not for nothing that you did this."
"It would be great if the siege is not attacked. When the Luoyang reinforcements and His Majesty's reinforcements arrive, we will be thirty miles from Juma City to the capital, and there is no danger to defend. We can take advantage of the situation to counterattack and wipe out the wolf clan." Outside the Lower Capital City”
The wide Juma Road is so quiet that it’s scary. All the preparations are in place.
At this time, Juechen rode on a horse, raising dust all the way, and ran towards Juema City.
"Report, please tell me that the leading troops of the Wolf Clan's 20,000 light cavalry came day and night to attack Juma City the day before yesterday. However, they stopped when they reached the Yanliu River and actually built a bridge over the horse stream by the river."
"It seems they know we are prepared."
Yesterday, the eldest prince of the wolf clan personally led an army of 200,000 people out of Jicheng and attacked Juma City. They are expected to arrive in three days.
"Everyone is on standby, inspecting all ministries, and taking strict precautions against spies."
"yes"
"Qin Ying, Xiao Wu, and Liang Chen, you three are staying here."
Everyone else dispersed, leaving only four people in the hall.
"There are three arduous tasks for you to stay here."
"I will fight to the death to complete it."
"Come here"
In the main hall, there is a simple map model four meters long and two meters wide.
"Liang Chen, you dig a pit in the backyard of our training camp outside the city. You can hide twenty people. Remember to stay hidden. Each of you takes a set of snake scale armor and a set of repeating crossbows to hide in it. Hide in it. , for two or three days, when you hear the bell, sneak out and gather at the lower end of Jumaling Mountain. We will drop the rope, and you must guard the rope to ensure that everyone can successfully descend."
"yes"
"Xiao Wu, take your equipment to the top of the mountain tonight and bury it properly."
"yes"
"You go prepare now and remember to keep your mouth shut."
"yes"
"Qin Ying, look, the Juma Road borders Yanshan Mountain in the north and Juma River in the south. From Yanliu River to Juma City, the twenty-mile Juma Road is at its widest two or three miles, and the narrowest point is less than one mile. You lead thirty shaven soldiers. , armed with thirty sets of snake scale body armor and thirty sets of repeating crossbows, you ambush, sneak attack, and hit and run along the Juma Road. If the enemy comes to chase you, you hide in Yanshan. When you hear the bell, , rush out of Yanshan and kill the enemy by surprise."
"yes"
"Remember not to let the repeating crossbow fall into the hands of the wolves"
"yes"
Tan Ta led Zuo Tu's 50,000 wolf warriors and nearly 200,000 cattle and sheep to cross the dam and go south into Youzhou. His arrival kicked off the wolf attack.
"Tan Ta, you came just in time."
"The last general will swear allegiance to the eldest prince to the death"
"Okay, with your loyalty, I will achieve my hegemony as king."
"Congratulations to the great prince, he will conquer the Central Plains and unify the nine states."
"Come and blow the whistle to gather the generals"
The long and loud sound of the wolf whistle resounded through Jicheng, and the messengers rushed to Yunzhou and Renqiu. Two generals, Wanyanhong and Luldun, were invited. Each of them had thirty or forty thousand people.
On the 25th day of April in the year 448 of the Jiangshan Kingdom, more than 200,000 troops gathered in Jicheng, with war flags covering the sun, a sea of people, cattle and sheep everywhere, and the largest invasion attack of the wolf clan began.
The wolf princess Duo Youyue appeared in the main hall,
The owl in Heifeng Village reported that the housekeeper of Zhenbei Palace was dead. It seems that he was exposed. What happened to the housekeeper of Zhenbei Palace, Military Advisor? He was my secret agent in developing in Taizhou. I didn’t expect him to die so easily. There was one The famous messenger ordered the soldiers to come in,
"What's the matter"
"The spies came to report that Juma City has increased its troops. Many soldiers come in and out every day, and fortifications are being built at the gate of the city."
"It seems that the surprise attack will not work, so the military advisor will attack by force."
"good"
"Order the vanguard of Marigold Furnace to stop advancing and wait for the main force and siege equipment."
"Follow your orders"
"Let Liu Kuanda recruit 30,000 Youzhou soldiers to serve as the vanguard" This is foolproof, and hegemony will surely be achieved
"Exploring"
Be sure to understand every move in Taizhou
"Follow your orders"
"Meet the Princess"
"Brother Wang is going to fight, and I am going too."
"Sister Yue'er, fighting is no joke."
"Why do you think I'm joking? Military affairs are the key to life and death. How could I joke about national affairs? I knew how to ride a horse when I was three years old. I practiced archery hard at the age of ten. I have been familiar with it in the past few years. I am no worse than you in the art of war,"
"But this is a battlefield. Swords have no eyes. Everything is possible. If something happens to you, how can I explain it to my father?"
"Accident. You have an army of more than 200,000. If something unexpected happens, then you are not worthy of being the warriors of the wolf clan."
All the generals and commanders in the hall knelt down.
"The last general will swear to protect the princess to the death"
"Brother, you see, they are loyal, and you promised me."
"All right"
"Suo Yan, you are responsible for protecting the safety of the princess."
"Follow your orders"
At this time, a wolf soldier reported,
"The housekeeper is dead, Taizhou is on guard"
In addition to the 30,000 defenders of Jicheng, the army was ordered to immediately set off. An army of 200,000 red Hufu soldiers gathered at the south gate of Jicheng. They were everywhere on the plains and mountains, like maple leaves in the autumn wind, golden. A loud and urgent horn sounded, and the long yellow color was like a heavy rain all over the field, converging down and pointing directly at Juma City.
The army marched during the day and rested at night. At noon the next day, an army of 200,000 people drank from the Mayan River.
"After today, our wolf clan will compete in the Central Plains and drink from the Ma Ba River. When we arrive in Chang'an, you can see the most prosperous city in the world."
"Chasing deer in the Central Plains, drinking from the Ma Ba River, and conquering Chang'an"
