Lu Luo's feelings for Jiang Ning are still a little special.
Just like that, the carriage fell into an unprecedented silence.
After a while, Yang Hui came outside the carriage and said softly: "Sir, it's getting late. Do you want to set off?"
Jiang Ning's private visit incognito has only gone to three states, and there are still six states he has not arrived yet.
Naturally, I don’t want to waste time on the road.
Jiang Ning said: "Let's go!"
"yes……"
In this way, the group of people left the Beast Stream and entered Qingzhou.
All the way east.
The scenery of Qingzhou is almost the same as that of Nanzhou, with many green mountains and green waters...
Naturally, Jingzhou and Taizhou are incomparable.
Jiang Ning was still paying a private visit incognito. Here in the Northern Desert, after the military training was completed, another 200,000 troops were gathered and headed south.
Troops were stationed on the northern desert border and marched south with just one order.
At the Northern Desert Army camp, Toya, who was dressed in silver armor, was high-spirited and her aura was so strong that everyone bowed their eyebrows. She looked at the map in front of her and said in a deep voice: "The current army is only thirty miles away from the Northern City. Everyone,
, who is willing to be the vanguard and fight this first game!"
Look around.
The lieutenants present all had bright eyes and spoke in unison.
"Go back to General, I'm willing to do that!"
"That's right..." Batu responded loudly. Thinking of the people he had humiliated in front of the generals of the Wu Dynasty, he became angry and furious. Now he thought that he must wash away his grievances.
Toya nodded, "Okay... I read you right!"
After thinking for a moment, let Batu lead one hundred thousand people to go to war!
Batu was ready to fight as soon as he left. He had no scruples and said solemnly: "This time, I will definitely destroy the Northern City!"
Toya nodded, "Be safe and look forward to your triumphant return!"
"yes……"
Immediately, Batu led an army of 100,000 troops and crossed the Wu Dynasty border in a mighty manner.
Approaching the northern city.
For the Northern Desert Army, crossing the line is a common occurrence, so they are familiar with the road.
This time, among the 100,000 troops led by Batu, there were siege troops, infantry, archers, etc...
No, it is composed of all cavalry.
After Beimo experienced bloody lessons, the army also made a series of reforms, so it now has an army with a full range of arms.
As the army in the Northern Desert advances, the yellow sand is endless, as if a sandstorm is coming.
When the guards on the northern city saw him, they beat drums one after another to convey the important news.
In a matter of seconds, it spread throughout the entire northern city.
The enemy crosses the border…
After Xiao Zhanming learned that the Northern Desert army had arrived, he led a group of lieutenants and climbed onto the city tower.
The yellow sand receded, and the Northern Desert Wolf Army appeared.
One hundred thousand Northern Desert Wolf troops were arrayed on the sand, covered in darkness, as if they were in a line with Tianlian City.
Strong morale seems to have the power to destroy everything.
Xiao Zhanming knew in his heart that there was already a feud between Wu Dynasty and Beimo, but he didn't expect that they would come back so soon.
To be honest, I really didn’t expect it!
“Summer has just entered, so I can’t wait to send out troops!”
Xiao Zhanming was thoughtful and said in a deep voice: "If I guess correctly, they want to end this war before winter!"
"General, we are willing to fight!"
"That's right, request to fight!"
"It is our duty to defeat the Northern Desert Army!"
The lieutenants, with sonorous and powerful voices, were all ready for battle.
Xiao Zhanming, as the commander-in-chief, is naturally always ready.
His gaze is profound.
Staring in the direction of the Northern Desert Army.
"Send my order, everyone, prepare to defend the city!"
Why are there so many wars in Northern City?
It's because Beijing City was the northern gate of Wu Dynasty.
Once the north gate is broken, the iron cavalry of the Northern Desert Wolf Army will take advantage of the situation and descend.
As long as the northern city is broken, there will be no danger to the north of the Wu Dynasty.
Can you imagine the importance of Northern City?
Therefore, the North Gate was built with three floors inside and three floors outside. It had only one purpose, which was to prevent the Northern Desert Army from moving south.
There were 200,000 defenders in the northern city, and there was plenty of food and fodder, so Xiao Zhanming did not have to rush in and take the initiative to attack.
After all, taking the initiative is actually passive...
Waiting for work with ease is one of the methods.
On the Northern Desert Army side, Batu did not let the army advance further, because if they advanced further, they would be within the range of Wu Nu.
In this way, they advanced beyond the range of the crossbows and within the range of their catapults.
Batu, after the previous defeat, has also grown up and is no longer reckless.
Instead, they used fire attacks to attack the northern city.
That's right, we want Northern City to turn into a sea of fire...
With a command, the catapult launched the black jar, which was filled with kerosene. In an instant, all the black jars were flying in the air.
When Xiao Zhanming and others saw it, they frowned, a little confused.
One of the lieutenants raised his hand and shot the black jar through. It shattered into pieces with a crack, and the black liquid inside spilled into the air.
There was also a pungent smell in the air.
Snap!
crackling...
Many black jars were smashed into the city, and fire oil spread everywhere.
"General...general, they attack with fire!"
Xiao Zhanming's eyes were dark and he said: "Bury the kerosene with sand and soil as quickly as possible!"
"yes……"
But as soon as he finished speaking, there was a fireball in the air and it hit hard.
When sparks fall on the kerosene, a fire breaks out instantly, and the fire spreads like a fire dragon.
After Batu saw the billowing black smoke from a distance, he said solemnly: "Continue to add fuel to them, this time I will make the northern city turn into a sea of fire!"
"Ha ha!"
Smiling proudly.
Just like that, the kerosene and the burning fire were smashed into the northern city.
The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and black smoke is billowing into the sky.
The reason for using fire to attack was that the Northern City was too difficult to conquer, so the only tactic was to first create chaos within it.
Because if there is no chaos within Beijing City, there will never be a chance to break through.
"Keep adding more ingredients!"
"yes!"
The fire spread throughout the northern city.
This time, the Northern Desert Wolf Army came with the fury of destroying the city, so when the war started, they used this crushing method of attack.
Fire and water are merciless, even a spark can start a prairie fire, let alone this kind of fire?
"General...General, it's bad, there's a fire in the east and west of the city!"
"Also...there is also the south of the city and the north of the city!"
"Now the people in the city are so frightened that they start running away, which really affects our ability to put out the fire!"
"This...what should I do now!"
Xiao Zhanming clenched his fist and said in a deep voice: "Leave some people to guard the city, others, follow me to put out the fire, and be sure to protect the granary!"
"yes……"
In this way, Xiao Zhanming, in the name of commander-in-chief, calmed the people and told them not to panic. Now that the enemy was attacking, they should share the same hatred.
After a passionate speech, ordinary people and soldiers joined the ranks of putting out the fire...
