Shen Yi was wrapped in a fur coat and stood on a high place. At this time, the sky was covered with dark clouds and snowflakes fell, quickly turning Marquis Shen's crown white.
Su Ding stood behind Shen Yi and held an umbrella for him very sensibly.
Shen Yi looked back at Su Ding and said with a smile: "Brother Anbang, we only need to hold an umbrella when it snows in the south. I heard a northerner say some time ago that there is no need to hold an umbrella when it snows here."
Anbang is Su Ding's cousin.
However, he was a warrior and had no nickname before. Now that he had become famous and became a second-rank general in the imperial court, he asked Shen Yi to give him a nickname. This would make it easier for them to address each other when they came to the imperial court.
Now, this nickname has been used for more than a year, and Shen Yi occasionally calls him one or two times.
In the future, Ling Su, Xue Wei and others will probably all have the same pseudonym. After all, they will be officials in the imperial court, and everyone must be more respectable.
Su Ding was a little curious and asked: "What's the truth?"
"Snow in the North."
Shen Yi caught a piece of snowflake with his hand, watched it slowly melt in the palm of his hand, and then whispered: "It doesn't seem to melt in winter."
When Su Ding heard this, he was startled, and then sighed: "In a blink of an eye, the general has been in the north for several years. In the past few years, his mind has been all about fighting, and he has not paid attention to this."
"Speak of it."
He opened his mouth and said: "We have rarely seen such heavy snow in the south."
"The weather here is much colder than in the south. Many brothers have frostbite and can no longer hold a knife firmly, let alone draw a bow and shoot an arrow."
Shen Yi looked at the north and sighed silently: "But the Qi people in the north are now impatient. They will not stop in the winter, let alone wait until spring to start fighting again."
Before he finished speaking, a horse hurried over. After the horse approached, he turned over and knelt on the ground, bowing his head to Shen Yi: "Master Marquis, General Zhong's army has already fought against the Northern Qi Zhengnan Army!"
Shen Yi nodded slightly and asked, "Are you sure it's the Conquest of the South Army?"
"Sure."
The scout lowered his head and said, "What we are holding is the Zhou flag."
Shen Yi then waved his hand and said: "Let's explore again. The situation on the front line will be reported every half an hour."
"Keep an eye on the Qi army's movements in Hejian Prefecture in detail."
The scout bowed his head respectfully: "I understand your humble position!"
After that, he got on his horse and left.
After he left, Shen Yi looked back at Su Ding and said with a smile: "Brother Anbang, Hejian Mansion probably already knows that your main force is in Jingxian County. Do you think they will bypass Zhong Ming and go directly to Jing County?" Come to attack Jingxian County?"
Su Ding shook his head slightly: "Mr. Shen, I don't know this."
Shen Yi smiled and said: "In the past two days, the army should not be stationed in the county town. It should be placed outside the city. The camp should be looser and let the Qi people's scouts take a look."
"Maybe we can recruit them."
Su Ding was thoughtful and asked: "Mr. Shen, the southern expedition army in Hejian Prefecture plus the border troops may number 70,000 to 80,000 people. If they go south to Jingxian County, how can we fight back?"
"There is no way they can move at all."
Shen Yi looked calm and said: "Let alone 70,000 or 80,000 people, even if 10,000 people move, it will be huge and cannot be hidden from anyone. There is still a long distance from Hejian Prefecture to Jingxian County. If they move on a large scale, , as soon as we left the city, we were alarmed here."
"If Qi Ren takes action."
Mr. Shen said softly: "Then it can only be the cavalry."
"And the number of people won't be particularly large."
Having said this, Shen Yi looked at Su Ding and said softly: "Brother Anbang hasn't seen the cavalry of the Northern Qi border army yet?"
"No."
Su Ding shook his head and said with a wry smile: "In fact, the last general has never encountered Northern Qi's cavalry on the frontal battlefield."
Shen Yi took a deep breath and said, "Then you may be about to see the follow-up."
"Are you sure you can handle it?"
Su Ding was silent for a while and then replied: "You are here, Mr. Shen, so the general will know for sure."
Mr. Shen laughed dumbly.
"I'm not a god."
"but…"
"It will come sooner or later."
He narrowed his eyes and said softly: "If they don't dare to come, it means that the reputation of our Huai'an Army has been established. If they come, they will try to win this battle, and win..."
"This year, I can feel more at ease. I don't have to worry about people coming over every day."
Su Ding followed Shen Yi's gaze and looked north, exhaling a white breath.
"Mr. Shen, the last general..."
"Go down and arrange it now."
………………
Two days later, it will be the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month.
There are only four days left before the Chinese New Year.
Because it was winter, it got dark very early.
As soon as the sun set, the sky became dark immediately.
It has been snowing for several days, and the weather has not cleared up yet. The dark clouds in the sky have covered the moon, turning the entire land into a dark autumn color.
In this winter snowy night, from the end of the horizon, there was the sound of neat horse hooves!
I don’t know how many horses’ hooves stepped on the ground together, the sound was earth-shattering!
Even the nearby snowflakes were shaken up and the snow particles flew into the air.
In the dark night, a cavalry force of several thousand people rushed towards Jing County.
The leader is none other than General Noyongnuo himself!
He personally led the cavalry and rushed to Jing County at night.
When he was still more than ten miles away from the county seat of Jingxian County, Nuo Yong stopped his horse and looked at the county seat in front of him with his binoculars. Then he frowned deeply: "This southern gadget doesn't work all the time."
The commander of the cavalry stepped forward, lowered his head and said: "General, the scouts have already investigated. Most of the main force of the Huai'an Army's Left Army is stationed outside Jingxian County. According to these southern thieves, it is for... "
"Don't disturb the people in Jingxian County."
Nuo Yong curled his lips disdainfully: "Hypocritical benevolence and righteousness."
"If these Zinan people really want to do it for the people, they should stay in the south and not come here to start a war."
Having said this, he looked towards the south with stern eyes: "Brothers, speed up."
"Just five miles further, Thief Shen's left arm will be broken!"
According to the intelligence obtained by Nuo Yong, the Huai'an Army's Left Army has not reacted until now.
And he was probably only a dozen miles away from the left army camp!
Just go a little further and close the distance to seven or eight miles!
At this time, once the cavalry charges up, the Huai'an army will never have time to defend!
There wasn’t even time to set up a formation!
He has a total of five thousand cavalry, all of whom are the elite cavalry among the frontier armies. Their cavalry, archery and battle skills are all top-notch!
This is a cavalry that can make Shen Yi drool!
As long as they can get closer, rush into the enemy camp, and go back and forth two or three times, the Huai'an Army's left army will be destroyed!
When the time comes, the left army that Shen Thief is so proud of will be crippled by the battle!
And the overall battle situation will also have a huge gap due to this battle. When the time comes, it will be much easier to clean up the southern thieves than before!
What's more important is that the Northern Qi court urgently needs a big victory to calm people's hearts!
This is almost the credit of Po Tian!
Faced with this level of achievement, and with such easy success, Nuo Yong was also a little excited.
As the cavalry under his command charged up and got closer and closer to the left army camp, Nuo Yong became more and more excited.
We only need to rush forward two or three miles, and the Huai'an Army's left army will be finished!
In the snowy night, a mighty force of five thousand cavalry, led by scouts, accurately charged towards the left army camp.
Ten miles!
Eight miles!
Seven miles!
Every time he gets closer, Nuo Yong becomes more excited!
finally!
Five miles!
He led his men and rushed within five miles of the Huai'an army camp!
At this distance, no matter who brought the army, facing five thousand elite cavalry, there was no possibility of fighting back!
General Nuo was so excited that he almost looked up to the sky and laughed.
Shen Thief's Huai'an Army is nothing more than that!
He looked around and shouted: "Come over and crush these Southern thieves!"
"Let them see how powerful Da Qi'erlang is!"
Following Nuo Yong's order, the five thousand riders launched their final charge, the final sprint!
Five thousand horses trampled the snow. For a moment, snow flakes splashed, and the white snow was trampled black!
There was even some snow that sank directly under the feet of these big horses and was trampled down.
Well... to be precise, it's a trap.
A pit that is neither deep nor shallow, but enough to make a horse stumble.
The first row of cavalrymen were attacked one after another. The horses stepped in the air and fell to the ground because of their speed. The knights on them were also thrown away.
"ah!"
Accompanied by screams and screams, more than a hundred riders in the front row fell down one after another.
Nuoyong was in the middle and rear of the cavalry team. He immediately realized something was wrong, his expression suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly!
"Turn! Turn!"
These cavalrymen were all elite and were very good at controlling horses. Even if the horses were running, most of them stopped the horses quickly and did not continue to step into the pit.
At this time, in the left army camp, a loud arrow flew into the sky and exploded in the sky.
General Su, dressed in iron armor, looked at these Northern Qi elites from a high place.
