Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

When Meng Zhao makes a decision and Beitang He cooperates to assist, it means that the two strongest forces representing Lingwu City are integrated together, and the military and political forces are concentrated in one place. Their energy will be greater than that of ordinary people. Imagine.

On the second day of his meeting with the prince, Meng Zhao began to secretly mobilize his army, took a battalion of troops and horses, took over the city defense flag of the city lord's palace, and quietly put on all sides of the city with armor and soldiers. The front is cold and fierce, and the soldiers are fierce.

This move was intended to protect the outsiders and prevent the remnants of Xiaofeng Hall from rushing out of the city. At the same time, it was also a way to familiarize themselves with the city defense affairs in advance. In the future, Lingwu City would still have to rely on the Yangwu Army to guard and protect it. Those who could only be said to be messing around. The skirmishers under the city lord's mansion are simply unreliable.

At the same time, two battalions of troops were mobilized and headed to Sao Feng Castle in the west of Lingwu Outer City.

This place is one of the two cores of Xiaofeng Hall. It is similar to the situation in Mengjiazhuang. It is the samurai affiliated with Xiaofeng Hall. The hall members and families live together in one place. There are many buildings and rows of houses, just like a small town. .

The closer you get to the core of Xiaofeng Hall, the tighter the security becomes, and the architecture begins to be different from ordinary residences. There are arrow towers, watchtowers, and sentry posts on the outside. Inside, turrets are also built using the city as a template. It's like a city within a city.

According to the information collected by Meng Zhao, this Sao Feng Castle is the permanent main hall of Sao Feng Hall. Warriors and warriors gather there. At least a thousand people guard it inside. At its peak, there were four thousand strong and brave warriors. Although the warriors are only from Jianghu forces, they are almost the same as a battalion of soldiers.

Times are different now, but Sao Feng Castle is estimated to have a standing guard of 2,000 people. There is no shortage of food, grass, weapons, and medicine. It is a strong backbone. If you want to attack, you can only attack by force. There is no shortcut.

This heavy responsibility must undoubtedly be given to Ling Hu Rui. He is a veteran on the battlefield. When he was in the Jizhou Army, although he had the ability to lead troops in war, he was not outstanding because there were too many capable people in the army.

Now among the Yangwu army, he was one of the few generals who had experienced the battlefield in person, so Meng Zhao ordered him to command two battalions of troops to attack Sao Feng Castle, mainly with destruction.

And he was given the keynote of this battle in advance, that is, while testing the strength of Yangwu's army, he should complete the task as quickly and crushingly as possible without any delay.

Anyone who desperately resists will be killed without mercy, and those who abandon their weapons and surrender can be temporarily detained and taken into custody, and we can discuss it later.

Linghu Rui had been practicing as a soldier for so long, and he felt itchy in his heart, so he decided to take on this task.

When the army was mobilized, it was dark night. Two battalions of soldiers, tens of thousands of people, stretched to the end of several things. One person and one horse. The horses' hooves were wrapped with coarse cloth and soft thread. They held torches exuding rosin and oil in their hands, dispersing the night's darkness. chill.

Linghu Rui also put a lot of effort into this battle. After all, it was the first battle before Meng Zhao. He must fight brilliantly, fight beautifully, and show his ability, so that he can have more opportunities.

If this battle fails and fails to achieve the expected results, even if Meng Zhao can still let him train troops, the possibility of leading the army on expeditions in the future may not be much.

Therefore, he put in 120,000 efforts and carefully arranged everything from the route selection of sending troops to the time control to ensure that it was a surprise attack to the greatest extent and catch the opponent by surprise.

This is a pre-arrangement, and the tone set is that a surprise battle, a blitz, must be fast and ruthless, and the opponent must not be given a chance to react or counterattack.

The formation of the army was a long snake formation, with one person next to the other, like greedy snakes. They rode horses and ran to the vicinity of Sao Feng Castle, and before crossing a ramp, they burned all the torches. Extinguish it and spray a special medicine on the body that can mask the smell of humans and horses.

During this period, the scout team trained by Ling Hu Rui played a huge role. It started with the two battalions of the army before setting off, and would alternately return every mile to report the discovery.

This also minimizes the possibility of the army being discovered.

Call!

Linghu Rui was wearing heavy armor and holding an iron gun that looked extremely thick. His face was cold and cold under his helmet.

Beside him and behind him were iron knots that were also shrouded in armor. They were densely arranged and occupied the entire plain area. They made almost no sound except for the north wind blowing at night and the occasional sneezing sound of the mount. .

Linghu Rui said nothing, raised his hand slightly, and saw ten soldiers with small flags on their backs approaching him. Compared with other soldiers wearing iron armor, these soldiers were wearing leather armor. Light and agile, he is a messenger.

"Order, scout the second team, the third team, and the seventh team, advance step by step, pull out the nails, and leave no survivors..."

"Order Xu Shoudao of the Iron Spear Battalion to lead his troops and set up an ambush one mile in the northwest corner. If any stragglers and defeated generals escape from Sao Feng Castle, they must be captured and no one will escape... "

Orders were issued one after another in Linghu Rui's speech without any emotion or emotion. Each of the order soldiers, carrying colorful flags, spread out to the two battalions of more than 10,000 troops to convey military orders.

This was still an appetizer. When the time was almost up, I saw a group of burly soldiers, carrying huge wooden beds, gears, and crossbows, assembling them. In a short time, twenty murderous vehicles were assembled. Ballista.

Three elite soldiers pushed a cart. In front of the cart were ten giant crossbow arrows as thick as arms and two meters long.

When fired on the battlefield, within 700 meters, it can penetrate half-hand-thick iron armor. Ten rounds can even shoot some not-so-strong city gates into sieves.

When everything was ready, Linghu Rui raised the iron gun in his hand and slashed a dazzling wave of air through the air. The force of the gun pushed away layers of air and pointed at Sao Feng Castle in the distance.

"kill!"

Following Linghu Rui's order, the two troops and horses, which had been prepared for a long time, rushed towards the target like two parallel arrows. The trilling sound of the galloping horses finally inevitably followed the approach. Wubao was discovered by its insiders.

"The enemy is attacking, there is an enemy~!"

The few gate sentries assigned to guard the outer perimeter of Wubao just noticed something unusual, and were wiped by the elite scouts who quietly touched them in the dark night. Blood spurted out like water guns.

The time of taking action was almost the same, and the time of death was less than five seconds apart. It can be seen that these scouts all had their own mission goals.

And these scouts, after killing people, seemed to have taken medicine, their eyes turned red, holding small daggers and arm crossbows, and harvested the people in Wubao with flexible and delicate techniques.

There were also some scouts who pushed aside the fence to allow the army to rush in freely.

More scouts quietly sneaked deeper into the dock to carry out assassination missions, causing more chaos and damaging the enemy's morale.

The clattering, dense, messy sound of horse hooves rose up, splashing the gravel on the ground that was still dry and hard in early spring.

The men and horses were like dragons, roaring like the wind, rushing in vertically and horizontally, and began a massacre that was deliberate and unintentional, with a huge difference in strength!
