After waiting for a stick of incense, the student army finally arrived in great force. Eight hundred people were divided into eight columns and entered the Wengcheng from outside the city. The appearance of the student army immediately made the princes, ministers and envoys who had been waiting for a long time panic.
I couldn't help but crane my neck, wanting to see what confidence this prince had and what capital he had to use this student army to fight against the elites of Wasi.
Among the more than 800 people, Liu Chengfeng was the only one riding a tall horse, and the rest were on foot, holding firecrackers and carrying baskets. There didn't seem to be anything eye-catching, but the queue was neat and there were some.
A bit of a neat and orderly temperament.
Zhu Youtang on the city tower couldn't help but secretly nodded. A new army could be trained like this, but it was not too bad. However, he didn't know its combat strength. He deliberately suppressed his uneasiness and asked Liu Jian to be the general.
He was called over to the side and had a few jokes with Liu Jian.
Liu Jian's thoughts were also complicated. In fact, Zhu Youtang felt uneasy, so he was no better. From time to time, he looked at the student army downstairs and talked to Zhu Youtang wordlessly.
The two were talking. At this moment, a fast horse flew out of the stinging formation, but it was Qing Geertai in military uniform. Qing Geertai rode his fast horse to the middle of the barbican city and stood there beating the horse.
Not moving forward, a pair of eyes looked at the student soldiers opposite like wolves and tigers, with a cruel smile on their faces. Those scarlet eyes looked like hungry wolves on the grassland, and when they saw the lambs, they gave off a gleam of light.
Liu Chengfeng saw Qing Geertai stationed alone in the center of Wengcheng in the team, and asked Qian Fang beside him: "Instructor Qian, what does this man want?"
Qian Fang said: "He wants to provoke Mr. Hou, and wants Mr. Hou to go and talk to him."
Liu Chengfeng smiled coldly, narrowed his eyes and said: "Provocation is my specialty, but this person wants to steal my unique skills. You form the formation here, I will go meet him."
Qian Fang didn't know what the patent Liu Chengfeng was talking about was, but he understood the general meaning. He nodded in agreement and said: "Master Hou, be careful, people with tiles are like tigers and wolves."
Liu Chengfeng nodded, reined in his horse and rushed out of the formation. Qinggeltai saw Liu Chengfeng flying towards him from a distance, and was obviously stunned. His move just now was originally intended to be provocative, and he was thinking in his heart.
The opponent's general may not dare to come. The saber in his hand is not sheathed. In addition, he has been fighting for many years and is full of murderous intent. Who would have known that the opponent would actually come.
Liu Chengfeng's flying horse arrived two feet away from Qinggetai. He reined in the horse calmly. The long sword on his waist was not unsheathed. He just squinted his eyes and let the horse circle around Qinggetai.
Look, he then said in a condescending tone: "The general will be named, and the sword in my hand will not kill the unknown."
Qinggeltai was stunned. This kid was very courageous. He suppressed the anger in his stomach, sneered, and quickly put away his saber. The opponent did not draw his sword, but reined in his horse with bare hands to fight him. This way
His courage and momentum are obviously much better than his. If
If he didn't sheath the knife at this time, others would only say that Qinggertai was afraid of the doll opposite him. Qinggertai felt that he was insulted, his eyes burst out with fire, and he gritted his teeth and said: "My name is Qinggertai.
Just wait and see, I will make you kneel under my horse later and beg me for mercy."
Liu Chengfeng smiled and said calmly: "I won't let you beg for mercy, because I will kill you and take off your head!" When he said this, Liu Chengfeng's eyes flashed.
Qing Geertai's murderous intent was so strong that it was hard to contain his murderous intent. However, Liu Chengfeng's murderous intent was much restrained, but once it was unleashed, it was enough to shock Qing Geertai.
How could he know that such a doll could also kill people!
Only then did Qing Geertai have to look at Liu Chengfeng and said: "Okay, because of your manly words, I won't humiliate you, I will only take your head!"
Qing Geertai didn't say anything. He realized that the guy in front of him was not threatened at all. He was a little more arrogant than himself. In this Ming Dynasty, Qing Geertai was always the only one who was arrogant. As an official of the Ming Dynasty, he had to be obedient.
Bear it, but to meet such a guy today made Qinggeltai feel like he had no power to use.
He turned the horse's head and gave Liu Chengfeng a cruel look, as if he wanted to remember Liu Chengfeng's appearance, and then turned the horse and drove away.
Liu Chengfeng shook his head and thought to himself, are all Wazai people so stupid? Why does this person look like he has meningitis? He cursed Qinggeltai in his heart, but then he found that everyone around the city wall was
Everyone was paying attention to him, and he couldn't help but secretly gasp. This scene was really too big, so he had better return to the formation first.
Qinggertai rode back to the main formation. Thousands of vanguards had already set up their formation, but many cavalry were dancing in the distance. The student army was standing in a row in the distance. Someone came up on horseback and said to Qinggertai in Mongolian.
: "Sir, look, what are the Confederate Army doing?"
Qinggeltai squinted his eyes and noticed something strange. The student soldiers on the opposite side unloaded the baskets one by one, and then took out iron water chestnut-shaped objects from the baskets and placed them in front of his formation. These iron water chestnut feet were
It is as big as a forearm, and each basket can hold seven or eight baskets on the ground, forming a natural iron barrier.
However, this horse is obviously much smaller and easier to carry. But having said that, although the horses in the vanguard are equipped with horseshoes, if they are stirred by this thing, the ankles will be injured. The most important part of the war horse is the hoof.
If something goes wrong, the cavalry on horseback will be in danger.
Qinggeltai's face turned grim. There were thousands of iron caltrops laid down by so many student soldiers, and they were densely arranged in front of the formation. If they let their horses rush over, they would not be able to completely hinder the cavalry's final sprint.
, but the loss is probably not small.
It seems that this time, the other party is obviously prepared.
"Sir, look..." Another person noticed something strange and pointed their finger into the distance.
Qinggeltai looked carefully and found that the student army obviously did not spread these iron water chestnuts in front of the formation, but left an open space in front of it that was twenty feet wide.
Qinggeltai's eyes narrowed, and he understood that the student army deliberately left a path for him. Only by sprinting to this place twenty feet away could he avoid these iron water chestnuts. In his opinion, these students
The army was too trusting. He seemed to see Liu Chengfeng provoking him with a proud face, as if there was a tent and the avant-garde cavalry would pass through if he had the ability.
"Everyone obeys the order. After a while, they will rush towards the gap. The opponent uses fire blunderbuss, but the Shenji Battalion of the Ming Army is not that good. It is still the old method. First, spread out the formation, and wait until it reaches thirty feet
After that, quickly assemble and overwhelm them!"
Qinggeltai quickly finalized the attack plan. If he charged to other places, the casualties would be too great. After all, those iron caltrops must not be fun. No matter how brave the Waci cavalry were, they might not be able to rush through them smoothly. Qinggeltai pursued
It was a complete victory, but the casualties were so great that even if we won, it would be meaningless.
Moreover, he has long been familiar with the strength of the Ming Army Shenji Battalion. The combat effectiveness of the Ming Army Shenji Battalion is not high. They will shoot at about fifty feet, and this range may not be able to penetrate the leather armor of the cavalry. Even if it can
Occasional casualties are within the tolerance range, and according to Qing Geertai's estimation, as long as the cavalry rushes to about twenty feet away from the Shenji Camp, these so-called Shenji Battalions will disperse in a rush.
At that time, all you need to do is pick up the knife and chase him, and you don't have to worry about it at all.
"Haha, they are the Shenji Battalion..." A Waqi Cavalry finally came to their senses and couldn't help shouting among the team.
Immediately afterwards, a burst of laughter erupted from the entire ranks of the Waqi Cavalry.
In their opinion, the Ming Dynasty's Shenji Battalion was not without merit. If the opponent relied on a fortified city to hold on, the Waci people might still be a little afraid of them, but here, these Shenji Battalions that collapsed in one fell swoop were simply like those on the grassland.
Like a lamb.
Seeing the opportunity, Qinggeltai raised his saber and shouted: "Warriors, follow me to kill Nan Gou!"
"Kill!" Countless long knives pointed at the sky, and an overwhelming roar broke out.
But Qing Geertai's words "kill Nangou" immediately caused the expressions of the princes and ministers on the city tower to change suddenly. Zhu Youtang was obviously angry. In the capital of the Ming Dynasty, these Waci people were so loud. It was simply
This is too much bullying.
Seeing Zhu Youtang's angry look, Liu Jian quickly said: "Your Majesty, why do you need to be like a barbarian?"
Zhu Youtang just came back to his senses, but a trace of murderous intent inevitably flashed across his face, and he said calmly: "You are right, how can I be with a group of barbarians who don't know how to educate themselves." He looked at the formation of the student army.
, his eyes exuded strong hope, and he immediately said: "It's almost time, let's pass on the decree and start the war."
A eunuch appeared at the city tower holding an imperial edict that had been drawn up long ago, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Imperial order: Ming Dynasty and Waci are vassal states, and they are friendly neighbors to each other..."
After finally finishing all these high-sounding polite words, the eunuch finally said: "Start the war!"
Immediately afterwards, bursts of drum beats came from the tower. The drum beat was like thunder, and the beating became faster and faster, making everyone's hearts jump out of their chests.
The two sides fighting in Wengcheng also took up their formations at this time. In the main formation of the student army, everyone was divided into five rows. They were placed in the twenty-foot-wide gap. Liu Chengfeng couldn't help but feel in the palm of his hand.
He sweated a lot. Whether his plan can be realized depends on today. He is like a gambler, only thinking about how to win, but so far he has not thought about losing.
"Remember, be brave, be calm, and be consistent in your orders!"
