Zhu Jinzhang began to allocate manpower and sent several people to look for Zhu Xiaoan.
They divided their forces and left the city. Zhu Jinzhang took 800 people and gave Zhu Xiaoan 600 people.
When leaving the city, the military order given by Zhu Jinzhang was to let Zhu Xiaoan wander around the Yong army, waiting for opportunities to launch a surprise attack.
Zhu Xiaoan remembered this sentence and strictly implemented it.
At this moment, he thought he had seized the opportunity to make a surprise attack.
After leaving the city, Zhu Xiaoan sent a large number of scouts to help him find out the general situation of Yong's army.
Among the three armies of Prince Yong's Mansion, he focused on Gao Zheng'an's army, which was the weakest. After all, they had the smallest number of troops.
But Zhu Xiaoan did not rush to take action, but ordered his men to deal with Yong Jun's scouts. After confirming that Yong Jun was blind, Zhu Xiaoan issued a combat order.
"Brothers, Yong's army is on the other side of the mountain. Their numbers are about the same as ours. As long as we sprint... we can break through their formation!" Zhu Xiaoan lectured his subordinates.
"As long as we break through their formation, we will use the same tactics as dealing with monsters and crush them all to death..."
"I know they are well-trained, but no matter how powerful they are, they only have one shoulder to carry their head... We are no worse than them!"
Zhu Xiaoan's tone is impassioned, and it must be said that he is very talented in mobilization.
"Remember, don't fight them head-on, the priority is to break through their formation!"
"If you can't break through, then keep charging and don't fight them!"
In fact, according to the general style of play, Zhu Xiaoan's arrangement is not wrong.
After talking about the overall requirements, Zhu Xiaoan then began to make detailed arrangements, mainly to reflect the effect of the surprise attack.
This requires that they must create a large formation as much as possible and launch attacks at a close enough distance.
Zhu Xiaoan was preparing on his side, while Gao Zhengan on the other side was riding forward with his men.
They had just fought against a group of corpses, and now they were far away from the Chinese army, so Gao Zhengan asked his men to speed up their journey.
Of course, the so-called speeding up only meant slightly speeding up. Gao Zhengan did not ask his men to move at full speed. After all, conserving physical strength was also important.
Looking around, Gao Zhengan said slowly: "The terrain ahead is open, please go down...be careful of monster attacks!"
Open terrain is not conducive to defense, so Gao Zhengan emphasized the requirements.
But in fact, as long as you go to the wild, you need to defend yourself everywhere, and you may encounter groups of corpses everywhere.
A hundred households on the side said: "Sir, these people in the north are really useless. They have occupied the county town, but they have so many monsters in the wild!"
Within the territory of Yuanyang Mansion, the zombie density is already very low, which is the result of the strong attack by Yongwang Mansion.
Of course, this is also due to practical conditions.
There are too few horses in the palace, and the land transport speed is very slow, making it extremely vulnerable to zombie attacks, so the zombie density must be reduced as much as possible.
Liaoping Duoma, on the other hand, transports materials faster, and because there are fewer people in the territory, they need to transport less materials, so they have no motivation to clean up zombies.
All results come from demand.
"After we capture Liaoping, we can start cleaning up these monsters..."
Pointing to the surrounding wasteland, Gao Zhengan said with a smile: "When the time comes, we will all plant food for him!"
"That's right, plant all the food for him!" Hundreds of households followed suit.
While they were joking, they didn't know that they were already being treated as soft persimmons and were about to be pinched.
"By the way, it's been half an hour, why haven't the scouts come back yet?" Gao Zheng'an was a little confused.
"This... seems a little strange!" Baihu replied.
Their sense of time was not strong in the wild, and now they noticed an abnormality, which meant something was indeed wrong.
"Could it be... that he was entangled by a monster?" Baihu replied.
In the wild, a person is entangled by zombies, even if he can be declared dead.
Gao Zhengan's face was gloomy and he said in a deep voice: "The sky is so big and the earth is so big, there is no way we can send people to look for it!"
They were all unsoldiers, and three horses were kept in the team to keep in touch with the front army. They could not be sent out to find people.
As Gao Zheng'an said, the world is huge, and if these three people are sent out, they will be useless.
"Send the order and be on guard!"
After marching for two hours, they had been attacked four times by groups of corpses, losing eight of their own lives.
Eight people doesn't sound like a lot, but I'm afraid of comparing the results with others. If Fang Sheng and Wang Cheng only lose one or two, then he will be at the bottom.
He, Gao Zhengan, is here to clear his name this time, how could he make such a mistake!
At this moment, Baihu on the side said: "Sir, listen..."
"Yes...it's the sound of horse hooves...and it's not far away!"
"The sound of horse hooves?" Gao Zhengan was a little confused.
Why did the sound of horse hooves suddenly sound at such a close distance? This can only mean that someone was ambushing here early.
"Be on guard, be on guard..." Gao Zheng'an shouted loudly, and at the same time gave orders to the flag soldiers on the side.
"Defense in formation!"
When Gao Zheng'an shouted this last sentence, he saw a large number of cavalry rushing out of the hillside on the east side.
"It is indeed these thieves..."
The cavalry was galloping towards them. The distance was only about a hundred meters away, and they only had five or six seconds to kill them.
Fortunately, the number of troops was not large at this time, and they maintained the most basic formation, so they arrayed themselves in an orderly manner.
In fact, the formation is very simple. It is nothing more than the soldiers on the outside forming a large shield, and the soldiers on the inside extending their spears.
The most important thing is that at this moment, we are fighting cavalry, and the archers in the military formation can play a role.
"Fire arrows..."
In a volley, more than a hundred arrows roared out, and when they landed in the distance, they immediately shot down seven or eight people.
Don't underestimate the fact that only seven or eight people were shot to death. The roaring arrows put great pressure on the attacking Ming soldiers.
After all, they have never participated in a real war. Most of the time, they rely on their horses to fight.
Some people were shot to death, while others fell off their horses in a panic and were trampled to death by those behind them.
Cavalry has a huge advantage in the cold weapon era, but the prerequisite is qualified cavalry. Obviously these Ming troops are not qualified.
Of course, with a burst of blood, these soldiers still rushed forward.
"Fire arrows..."
Another round of sharp arrows was fired. Because the distance was closer, this time the arrows killed more than twenty people, and caused a dozen more people to fall off their horses.
It can be said that before there was any fighting, the Ming army lost sixty or seventy people.
Of course, after these two rounds of firing arrows, the Ming army also reached the front of the Yongwang Mansion army formation. At this time, bows and arrows were no longer effective.
Approaching the military formation, there was a row of horses in front of them, with only a not too wide gap between them to allow two horses to pass.
"Kill..." Zhu Xiaoan roared angrily.
The horses were galloping, some rode directly over the rejecting horses, while others passed through the gaps between the rejecting horses and fought directly to the front of the royal army's formation.
When the local war horses arrived, hundreds of households in the military formation shouted: "Hold on..."
The shields have been lined up and the spears have been set up. All the soldiers have to do is to hold their weapons steady and welcome the enemy's impact.
More than 600 cavalrymen crashed into the palace's military formation like a huge wave. Suddenly, the horses neighed and the sound of killing shook the sky.
Although he was not a qualified cavalryman, as the saying goes, great strength can produce miracles, the palace formation really allowed Zhu Xiaoan to break through a hole.
This is actually not unusual. Hundreds of horses rush into one place, but how can a few dozen people in the middle stop them.
Seeing this situation, Zhu Xiaoan laughed and said: "Prince Yong's Mansion...it's nothing more than that!"
