To the east of Ganshuiguan is a military town, Dongxuguan, lying between Anling County and the north of Yongchang County.
Dongxuguan is not big, but the city wall is very high. It is a typical pure military town that can accommodate thousands of people. Once the city is besieged, it is a nail-like military fortress that can rely on the city's solid food supply to hold on for a long time.
But just because of an oversight, the city gate was opened by an elite force of 3,000 riders from Yongchang County, and the city changed hands overnight!
A few miles east of Dongxuguan is the camp of a large army from Yongchang County. Judging from the scale of the camp, it probably has tens of thousands of people. However, it has been holding on to the camp for many days. In addition to sending a team of thousands of people to cooperate with Dongxu Pass,
The cavalry in Xuguan advanced westward and forced the Ganshuiguan army that was trying to retake Dongxuguan back outside the pass. There was no larger-scale assembly, which seemed quite strange.
Inside Dongxu Pass, the layout is simple and clear, with the camp in the east, the playground in the west, the city gates are divided into north and south, and the main road runs through the center.
Today, there are 3,000 Yongchang elite cavalry living in the eastern camp. The western playground has become the place where the cavalry mounts are placed. Simply surround it with wooden fences, and a huge horse farm is formed.
On this day, the night was getting darker, and there was silence in Dongxu Pass.
Except for the soldiers patrolling the city walls with torches, there was no movement between heaven and earth.
When the night got late, even the cavalry on patrol were a little sleepy. Looking at the empty fields outside the city, they could see the extremely far distance under the moonlight, and they couldn't help but do other things to pass the time.
.
While everyone was staring at the wilderness outside the city enjoying the rare tranquility, something quietly changed inside the city.
At first, it was just somewhere inside the western city wall that tiny light spots like fireflies suddenly emerged. Those light spots scattered along the base of the city wall to both sides like water!
Then, the light spots gathered more and more, and finally turned into patches of light, which merged into the central main road and merged into a river of fireflies in the darkness!
When someone on the city wall finally stood up in alarm, and more people began to scream and sound the alarm, large swaths of fluorescent light had rushed up the city wall, flowed into the playground, and entered the camp, everywhere!
There are no weaklings in Yongchang County's elite cavalry, but at night like this, they immediately fell into chaos when facing enemies from all directions who seemed to be falling from the sky.
They didn't know where the enemy came from or how many there were. Even in the darkness, when they suddenly woke up, the disheveled cavalry rushed out of the courtyard and took to the streets. They couldn't understand who the enemy was for a moment!
They were divided into individuals by the chaotic crowd. They fought on their own. Except for a few close friends who could resist back to back, the rest could only be enemies with everyone.
Escape, kill, hide, rush.
Everyone's choice is only their own choice.
But the owner of that piece of fluorescent light can kill anyone around him who doesn't have fluorescent light on his head.
Dark, weird, bloody and chilling.
When there was no more fighting in the city and silence returned, the city was already filled with fluorescent light.
At this time, a fat man emerged from a secret underground passage in the western city wall of Dongxuguan. While breathing heavily, he pushed away several soldiers who wanted to help him and helped him.
He held his helmet and said angrily, "Do you think I... do you think I can't leave by myself?!"
He snorted angrily and squeezed out of the huge gap in the city wall. Then he immediately became in a good mood. He pointed one hand on his hip and one finger at the playground in front of him and laughed, "Doyle, did you see it? Three thousand war horses, three thousand war horses!"
"
The burly man who walked out of the city wall behind him was also smiling. He looked at the horses on the playground and smiled from ear to ear. "Brother, you are really amazing. Not only did we quietly retake Dongxu Pass this time,
, and I also made a profit of three thousand war horses, which is really a great victory that can be recorded in history!"
"What do you mean by retaking Dongxuguan?" The fat man snorted dissatisfiedly, but the smile on his face did not weaken at all. "If I don't want them to take over Dongxuguan, I can just rely on these people from Yongchang County to lay siege to the city."
It won’t be taken off for several months, it’s just a bait, these idiots really dare to swallow it.”
"That's that, that's my brother's clever plan..." The burly man really didn't even have many words to praise, so he had to forget it, "Brother, we can expand the cavalry by three thousand in one breath, otherwise
Can you give me a thousand?"
"For you?" Fatty glanced at him and said, "Don't even think about it. Why is Lijun Qingqi so famous all over the world? It's not just that they are well-equipped, and not only because of the high quality of their soldiers, but also because they have five thousand cavalry.
No matter where I go, there are always five thousand cavalry. They are invincible and invincible. Now I have five thousand cavalry with great difficulty, and you still want to break them up for me? Besides, cavalry and cavalry are not infantry.
Horseback can be called cavalry, and it will take a long time to truly have five thousand cavalry."
The burly man glanced at the war horse in front of him with some regret, but did not dare to refute, so he had to ask again, "What should we do now? Dongxuguan has been recaptured, but tens of thousands of Yongchang troops are still stationed outside the city. Zhao Wuji from Li County has ten
Eighty-nine people don’t have the guts to go north. We have to rely on ourselves to resolve the current predicament, brother, otherwise you let me lead the two thousand cavalry to go around the back of the tens of thousands of army camps in Yongchang and cut off their food and grass supplies?!
"
"Doyle, these words are somewhat interesting, but you still think wrong." The fat man finally reached out and patted the burly man on the shoulder, with a serious expression on his face. "Since last night, several scout teams took the risk of going on a special journey."
Judging from the news continuously sent back through the channels, not only did Zhao Wuji have the courage to go north this time, he was also much more courageous than your brother and I imagined..."
He frowned deeply and looked to the east, "Lijun made a big move this time. In all likelihood, he was determined to capture Tongcang City, an important town in the north of Yongchang County. Once Tongcang fell into Lijun's hands, the original
Even if the tiger locked in the mountains is completely released from the cage, it's hard to predict what will happen next..."
"No matter how he comes out of the cage, it's not for Yongchang County. Brother, didn't you say that the prefect of Yongchang County is a crazy old man? How could he just sit back and watch his important town fall into the hands of Li County without doing anything. They are definitely going to fight.
The more fierce the fight, the better." The burly man shrugged nonchalantly, "Lijun has occupied Tongcang City, and the Yongchang Northern Army probably has no intention of seeking our misfortune any more. These bugs outside Dongxu Pass will have to retreat to Liangcang City.
Alright?"
"Once Tongcang City is lost, the two cities of Liangcang and Zhengcang, which are at the horns of Tongcang, will be within reach of the county's army, especially Liangcang City, which is not far from Tianmen Pass.
This is the second big city that Zhao Wuji is interested in. No one knows how big Li Jun's appetite is, but everyone knows that Li Jun is really strong..." The fat man shook his head and his expression remained solemn, "So
Even if this Yongchang County Northern Army does not seek our misfortune, we have to seek their misfortune. Once Zhao Wuji sent troops, regardless of whether he had premeditated it or not, he responded to my Han family's request for joint troops. We should
Secondly, if Zhao Wuji, as a guest army, can capture Tongcang City in one battle, but we, as the main army, are afraid of the enemy and refuse to fight against the Yongchang Northern Army, which has no chance of retreat, then the Lijun side will have trouble.
If the caged tiger becomes our direct neighbor in the future, there is no guarantee that it will not covet the Ganshuiguan of my Han family..."
"Furthermore, the current situation of the Yongchang Northern Army is indeed extremely embarrassing. Yongchang County has a long and narrow terrain, and now the Dragon Yao area has been hit hard by Li County. I want to see what Meng Zian will do...
