In a mountain forest ten miles away from Jiangxia City, two thousand Feilong Army officers, with their horses and bells on their backs, were quietly lurking in a mountain col.
Zhao Yun's white armor was extremely conspicuous in the dark night, but the two thousand flying dragon troops behind him were all dressed in black armor, like wolves hiding in the dark night, choosing and devouring people.
Zhao Yun looked up at the sky. It was a cloudy day today, and the sky was so dark that he couldn't see his fingers. Only when he felt that it was late at night did Zhao Yun turn around and take off the cyan baggage hanging on the horse's back.
Zhao Yun reached out and took out a brocade bag from the package. He looked at it carefully before taking out a piece of brocade cloth. Then the only torch in the darkness lit up. Zhao Yun read the contents on the brocade cloth.
Put the brocade cloth on the torch and burn it, then Zhao Yun took out a bamboo slip from the package, carefully read the contents on the bamboo slip, Zhao Yun put the bamboo slip back into the package, and hung the package on the horse's back again.
superior.
"Set off!"
A low shout came from Zhao Yun's end, and in an instant, the originally quiet mountain col immediately heard a rustling sound. Soon, a dense number of figures gathered behind Zhao Yun, it was the Feilong Guard hidden in the darkness.
The Flying Dragon Guard is different from the Flying Tiger Guard. The Flying Tiger Guard is a complete cavalry and is good at charging into battle. Any resistance will be torn to pieces and crushed by the Flying Tiger Guard's charge. This is only possible with hundreds of Flying Tiger Guards following Liu Qi to charge.
It can be seen during the battle in Jiangdong that when the enemy is several times larger than its own, the Flying Tiger Guard is like a sharp knife cutting all defenses into pieces.
Although there are only a few hundred Flying Tiger Guards soldiers, these hundreds of Flying Tiger Guards soldiers can hug themselves tightly and build their bodies into extremely sharp spikes, which can be extremely sharp no matter where they go.
, the power is amazing.
The Flying Dragon Guard is different. The Flying Dragon Guard is not only cavalry, but also two thousand elite scouts and assassins.
The Feilong Army has no scouts. The Feilong Army's scouts are all served by Feilong Guards. These Feilong Guards are elites specially selected by Wenpin from the army. These people are not only good at cavalry charges, but also good at inquiring about information and assassinating the opponent's scouts.
It can be said that it is precisely because of the existence of Feilong Guard that Wenpin can understand the enemy's situation at any time and make correct judgments.
The reason why Wenpin has been able to catch the opponent's tiny mistakes in every battle over the years and severely damage the opponent in one fell swoop is because of the Feilong Guard. The Feilong Guard is the eyes of the Feilong Army. Without the Feilong Guard, the Feilong Army's advantage will be greatly eliminated.
Weak, this is why Wenpin did not stop Jiangdong's army.
Compared with the Flying Tiger Guard, the Flying Dragon Guard may not be as sharp and sharp as the Flying Tiger Guard, but the combat power of the Flying Dragon Guard is not bad at all. If the Flying Tiger Guard is like a long sword with a cold light,
, murderous, the Flying Dragon Guard is a ghost in the night with a blade of death, killing invisible but with amazing deterrence.
During the day, the Flying Dragon Guard may not be as imposing and unstoppable as the Flying Tiger Guard, but in the dark night, the Flying Dragon Guard is a bloody sharp blade. Even in head-to-head combat, the Flying Dragon Guard often does amazing things.
But even so, in a head-on battle with an enemy several times their size during the day, the Feilong Guard is still at a disadvantage. The Feilong Guard does not have Wang Yi, a general who is not only extraordinary in martial arts, but also good at commanding cavalry, so the Feilong Guard is far from as good as the Flying Tiger Guard.
Dazzling, even if the Flying Dragon Army is out fighting in the north and south all day long, it is not as famous as the Flying Tiger Guard.
Now the commander of the Feilong Guard is Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun's martial arts skills are much higher than Wang Yi's, and commanding the cavalry is not comparable to Wang Yi's. After all, the White Horse Yi Cong was established specifically to deal with the Huns' cavalry. Among the White Horse Yi Cong
All training is specifically for cavalry.
With Zhao Yun joining the Feilong Guard, the strength has suddenly improved a lot. Zhao Yun's training of the Feilong Guard these days can be said to make every Feilong Guard's heart beat. Zhao Yun did not let them down. For more than ten days,
During the training, Zhao Yun gave all the skills of the White Horse Yi Cong to the Feilong Guards, and the Feilong Guards were also worthy of the title of elite and digested all the content of Zhao Yun's teachings in just more than ten days.
It can be said that today's Feilong Guard has no shortcomings. Today's Feilong Guard is like a peerless sword hidden in the scabbard. Once it is on the battlefield, it will emit a dazzling light.
Two thousand figures suddenly stood up among them again, silently, looking like zombies. Zhao Yun turned around and looked at the two thousand soldiers in front of him and nodded secretly, then turned around silently and pulled the reins of the horse beside him, in the dark night
Zhong walked forward slowly, and the two thousand flying dragon guards behind him followed quietly.
……………………………………………………
In the early morning, before dawn, the dull sound of war drums was already ringing through the sky. Groups of soldiers outside Jiangxia City continued to run and gather under the urging of their respective corps commanders. In less than two quarters of an hour, a total of 40,000 troops had already gathered.
complete.
The 100,000 Jiangdong army attacking Jiangxia this time, in addition to the 10,000 soldiers and horses scattered in various places, nearly half of them were in Jiangxia city alone, and not only the 40,000 army, but also Sun Ce's 5,000 personal guards gathered
Outside Jiangxia City, Sun Ce originally wanted to mobilize all 20,000 personal guards for this attack on Jingzhou. However, under the persuasion of Zhou Yu and others, Sun Ce still left 15,000 personal guards as a precaution.
Although there are still tens of thousands of troops in Jiangdong, these tens of thousands of troops are from all sides of the defense and cannot spare any manpower. If the Shanyue tribe takes advantage of Sun Ce's absence from Jiangdong and invades and retaliates against Jiangdong, then Jiangdong will be unstable.
Even the general Cheng Pu was left behind in Wu County by Sun Ce.
In addition to the 40,000 troops and horses left to attack Jiangxia, there were also generals Zhou Tai and Han Dang, as well as two young generals Lu Meng and Chen Wu of the Guards. In addition, there were several generals, while those who attacked Xiling
It was Taishi Ci, but it was the general Ling Cao who attacked Xiakou.
The sound of war drums was loud, and the 40,000-strong army was ready to go in front of the camp. Flags were fluttering, blocking out the sky. It looked so dark that even the sky became a little gloomy. The 40,000-strong army was full of momentum and morale was high.
In front of the army, Sun Ce and more than ten people, riding war horses, looked calmly at Jiangxia City not far away. In the eyes of Sun Ce and others, Jiangxia City was already in danger. As long as the army continued to attack, Jiangxia City would be in danger in three days.
Nei must be captured. Yesterday, after Sun Ce made a three-day appointment with Lu Su, Sun Ce immediately summoned the generals to discuss countermeasures.
More than ten generals in the big tent quarreled over this issue. Finally, Sun Ce spoke and divided the dozen or so people in the big tent into three waves, led by Taishi Ci, Ling Cao and himself.
Taishi Ci was calm, decisive and good at leading troops, and was responsible for attacking Xiling. However, because Ling Cao defeated the navy camp stationed outside Xiakou, Sun Ce gave him the task of attacking Xiakou.
The 40,000-strong army was quickly mobilized, and manhole rails were erected and they slowly approached Jiangxia City. Groups of soldiers also approached Jiangxia City under the command of Sun Ce. To attack Jiangxia City, Sun Ce adopted Zhou Yu's plan.
It is recommended to surround three but one is missing. He himself is responsible for attacking the south gate of Jiangxia City, Han Dang is responsible for attacking the west gate of Jiangxia City, and Zhou Tai is responsible for attacking the east gate of Jiangxia City.
"Please tell me, my lord, that the army is ready to attack at any time."
"Please tell me, my lord, that the east gate is ready."
"Please tell me, my lord, Ximen is ready."
"Okay, send the order! In a quarter of an hour, the three gates will attack the city at the same time." Sun Ce immediately ordered.
"No." Several messengers rushed to deliver the order. Soon Sun Ce's order had spread throughout the entire army, and Han Dang and Zhou Tai had also received Sun Ce's order.
Seeing the momentum of the army, Sun Ce burst out with pride and immediately laughed and said: "With such power, how can a small Jiangxia city be defeated in a small place?"
"My lord is right. I think we might be able to capture Jiangxia today in less than three days." A young general beside Sun Ce said excitedly. After speaking, he looked at Lu Su who was not far away with a slight disdain.
This person was none other than Lü Meng, the leader of the Guards. In this attack on Jingzhou, Sun Ce specially brought Lü Meng and Chen Wu with him to train them, hoping that they could become independent generals.
Hearing Lu Meng's words, other generals around Sun Ce also nodded in agreement.
Seeing everyone like this, Lu Su just chuckled and ignored him. It is natural for Wei Sanqueyi to deal with ordinary generals, but this person in Jiangxia City is Jingzhou's famous general Wenpin. The reason why Jingzhou has been able to do this in recent years
Stability depends entirely on this person leading the Feilong Army to fight everywhere and resist foreign enemies. Wei Sanque is useless to a pair of civil servants.
"Zijing, what do you think of this army?" Zhou Yu looked at Lu Su and smiled. In the past, Lu Su stayed in the tent all day long and had no chance to let him see how strong Jiangdong's soldiers and horses were. Today is just the day.
is an opportunity.
"The fighting spirit is as high as the sky, and the momentum is like a rainbow. These are the elite troops who can attack the city and conquer the stronghold." Lu Su looked at the Jiangdong army coming solemnly behind him and couldn't help but sigh.
"Haha, how many days do you think these soldiers and horses can capture Jiangxia City?" Zhou Yu still hoped that Lu Su would change his mind. After all, any resistance in front of such a large army would be destroyed.
"It will take at least four or five days." Lu Su thought for a while and said. He originally thought that even if Jiangdong's soldiers and horses continued to attack day and night, it would take more than ten days to capture Jiangxia, but now he saw Jiangdong's soldiers and horses.
After gaining momentum, Lu Su couldn't help but change his mind. Although these elite soldiers were not as good as the Feilong Army, even the Feilong Army couldn't sustain their attacks day and night.
"Huh?" Zhou Yu glanced at Lu Su in surprise. He originally thought that Lu Su would change his mind after seeing these soldiers and horses, but now he couldn't help but be shocked when he saw Lu Su's words.
"Can't the 40,000-strong army capture Jiangxia City in three days? Is there any other means that Wenpin can't do it?" Zhou Yu was secretly surprised.
