Xu Huai took out a thin arrow from the arrow bag tied behind his left shoulder, and slowly rubbed his fingers with a special arrow cluster that was thinner than ordinary clusters. He was like gently stroking Liu Qiong'er.

That smooth, elastic and ecstatic skin.

After a while, Xu Huaicai slowly put a long arrow on the bowstring and pulled the bowstring open. The muscles that bulged with the right arm obviously supported the armor of the right arm - the moment the bowstring was released,

"Bang" a strange sound that made people's heart-strings tremble, and a small circle of extremely thin blurred shadows appeared in the direction of the thin pole and long arrow breaking through the air.

A Xiongzhou general who was a hundred steps away clearly noticed in advance that Xu Huai's arrow was locking him, and also clearly saw the subtle process of Xu Huai's bowing with a string.

He was wearing iron-leaf armor. As long as he was not aimed at the face, he didn't need to be afraid of crossbows at such a long distance.

However, at the moment when the long arrow left the string, he felt a sudden shock in his heart. The inexplicable sense of crisis made him subconsciously raise the knife to block it. He felt that time seemed to have stopped for a moment. As soon as he lifted the knife to his waist, he felt a pain in his chest and lowered his head.

Seeing this arrow, it actually broke through the iron mirror of the heart protection and shot into his chest!

What a strong bow!

What a sharp arrow!

The general of Xiongzhou is also a good shooting person. His last thought in life was to know how strong the longbow that shot him was to shoot such a fast armor-breaking arrow!

Seeing that the leader general was shot by an arrow, more than a hundred Xiongzhou sword and shield soldiers on the long street were panicked. Although they were also well-trained and long-standing old soldiers on the battlefield, they tried to shrink the array more densely, but

Hu noticed that the opponent's formation was in chaos, so he led the elite troops forward and attacked the opponent's shield formation, creating more gaps and chaos so that the elite bows and arrows organized around Xu Huai could shoot accurately.

The enemy's new round of counterattack against Nanxun Gate was quickly defeated, and dozens of corpses were left behind, and the rest retreated towards the Zhuque Gate.

"Wujiang Junhou should have something to do, please go back to the city tower. 1 In the front, Wang Ju, who was commanding the battle, noticed that on the Nanxun Gate Tower where Xu Wujiang was stationed, there was a sign of a new sign with the five-colored flag.

The situation needs Xu Huai to rush over.

Xu Huai looked back and told Wang Xian: "You should stabilize your position here first, don't fight urgently - the enemy must take back Nanxun Gate more urgently than us, and let down the momentum be here first.

“Yes 1

The Li Street, which connects Nanxun Gate and Zhuque Gate, is the widest avenue in the outer city, which can be used by cavalrymen to rush. In order to ensure the hidden concealment, the guards' personal camp did not directly lead many war horses to attack Bianliang this time.

However, the components of the fine iron shield car were carried over with more than 30 sets, and the assembly was completed by this time.

Wang Xian took over the command of the front line and directly ordered twenty shield chariots to be deployed diagonally on the flanks in order to prepare the Red Hu cavalry stationed in Licheng, Bianliang (inner city) to come out of Zhuquemen, and be blocked by the chariot formation.

; At the same time, disassemble door panels, beams and columns, and make obstacles such as horse resistance.

Bianliang is divided into three levels of outer city, Licheng and imperial city, with a complete defense system. Licheng is Yang Jingchen, Yang Congzong and Chihu's fierce general Bage personally led elite troops to guard it. It was not an unexpected surprise attack, and it could be seized.

——They are now attracting the attention of the defenders of Licheng to Lida Street, and quickly disintegrating the combat will of the four other south gates of the outer city on both wings.

Xu Huai then untied the arrow pouch behind his shoulder and handed it to Niu Er with the Changbow, leaving him to rest with Wang Xian in the front stage for a while, but he was not allowed to go into battle at will.

Seeing that there was no worries in the previous situation, Xu Huai and Wang Ju stepped onto the war horse and rushed back to Nanxun's sect surrounded by guards.

From the city tower on the city road, when you first saw Zhou Jing standing beside Xu Wujiang, Xu Huai asked in surprise: "What's going so smoothly?"

Zhu Xianyi is their most important step. Even if he can successfully convince Chen Man to change his appearance and surrender to Chushan, in order to prevent the enemy soldiers and surrendered troops from coming from all directions after receiving news, Chen Man's mind would be shaken again.

The plan is to keep Zhou Jing in Zhuxianyizhaicheng to prevent accidents.

Zhou Jing has returned with only a few people now, and there are no other abnormalities. Of course, Xu Huai can understand that the matter of Zhu Xianyi has been resolved smoothly, even more smoothly than expected.

After sending unrelated people, Zhou Jing introduced Jiang Ping to Xu Huai and met him, and told Xu Huai about the situation he encountered after entering Zhuxianyi Village in the early morning:

"The Jiang Ping brothers had served under the command of Xian Zheng. In recent years, they transferred all the troops of the Nianxi Army and later transferred to the capital army with Chen Man. After the fall of Bianliang City, the rebel general Yang Jingchen was in charge of the Imperial City Office, which was actually Chi

Hu's real commander in Bianliang. In order to control the surrendered generals in the capital, Yang Jingchen secretly controlled a group of people as a spy and deployed to monitor the surrendered generals such as Chen Man. This time, it was all thanks to the help of Jiang Ping's brothers, and the matter of Zhu Xianyi was resolved more than expected.

More smooth 1

Wang Ju didn't expect that the former subordinate of Jingsheng's army at Zhuxianyi meeting looked at Jiang Ping excitedly.

Of course, there were more than 25,000 troops at the Jingsheng Army when it was prosperous. There were really few people who could still remember their faces, let alone Jiang Ping was just an ordinary soldier when he was Jingsheng Army.

Wang Ju happily patted Jiang Ping on the shoulder and asked, "Who are you under your command?"

"Reported to the Seven Generals, Jiang Ping was a soldier under Zhou Huan, the commander of the Leopard Camp." Jiang Ping saw Wang Ju, who was also a legendary person, and tears were rolling in his eyes.

"Okay, Jing Shengjun came out, there are indeed no cowards. You will be with me in the future. 1 Wang Ju was so happy that he wanted to keep Jiang Ping directly by his side.

"Seven Generals, this may not work. Zhou Jing urgently brought Jiang Ping to Xu Huai. He had other plans. How could he give Jiang Ping to Wang Ju as his personal guard? He hurriedly said, "The Jiang Ping brothers have two sons who are the Imperial City Siguai

Hostage, before rescuing his two sons, we can only claim to the public that he and another Imperial City Secret were dealt with, so it is better for the Jiang Ping brothers to stay by my side for the time being—of course,

I was so anxious to pull Jiang Ping to meet Jieshuai, but I still had something else to report to you."

"You said." Xu Huai signaled Zhou Jing to continue.

Zhou Jing said: "When the First Commander was alive, he governed the army with benevolence and righteousness. He taught his fists, feet, swords and guns without reservation, and loved soldiers as much as his son. Even though these years have passed, many old subordinates still remembered them. We used to be cautious, even if we knew whether the troops in the capital had any.

Young Master coaches his old subordinates, but they cannot pay them. This time it is a good opportunity to recruit the old subordinates of the first leader again."

"That's true," Xu Huai frowned and pondered.

Before Bianliang fell, all the scholars and ministers in the court were resentful of his life experience and were wary of the people of Chushan. At that time, if he really wanted to contact the former subordinates of the Jingsheng Army, he would definitely be charged with ulterior motives.

However, the times change and the trends change.

If the imperial guards in the capital had some old soldiers of Jingsheng Army, after the fall of Bianliang, he was forced to attack Bianliang due to the situation, he would now lead the elite troops of Chushan to raid Bianliang, persuade them to raise the banner of righteousness again, and join the command of Chushan to jointly resist the barbarians for the Great Yue,

Who has found out any fault?

"At this time, how many generals and soldiers in Bianliang City would be my father's old subordinates?" Xu Huai asked again.

“There may be three or five hundred people, and there may be more than 1

On the way here, Zhou Jing asked Jiang Ping in detail about the specific situation.

Because of too many ups and downs and because he was transferred to the Gyeonggi Imperial Army, he was only a low-level military officer, Jiang Ping had no chance and had never thought about how many Gyeonggi Imperial Army had something to do with the Jingsheng Army.

However, six or seven years after he was transferred to the Imperial Army of Gyeonggi, among the generals of Gyeonggi who had been in contact with normal contact, he knew that eleven or two had joined the army in the Jingsheng Army, and even had resentment about the old things that happened back then.

It is quite unfair. It is just limited by their own status and the humble and insignificant feeling in their hearts. They just feel this way and cannot affect their daily life.

Zhou Jingzhao surrendered to the imperial guards in the capital, and then calculated the size of the troops during the Jingsheng Army's mutiny, calculated the Western Army's casualties in Qinfeng and other states in recent years, calculated the weak and strong battles between the Western Army and the Xiang Army, calculate the weak and strong.

In recent years, the capital of the capital was drawn from the Western Army to supplement the proportion of elite troops. Zhou Jing estimated that among the pseudo-Chu guards Bianliang at this time, there were at least three or five hundred old soldiers of the Jingsheng Army.

However, considering that even though Jingsheng's army was suspicious of Cai Ying, during the years when Wang Xiaocheng was commanded, he was not only committed to exchanging the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, but also spared no effort to train the lowest-level generals and soldiers, and taught Fu Python Fist.

The sword and spear techniques were not reserved - these determined that even if the old soldiers of the Jingsheng Army were over 40 or 50 years old, the proportion of the remaining soldiers in the imperial guards might be higher than expected.

Of course, even if there were only four or five hundred old soldiers in the pseudo-immune army in Bianliang at this time, even if they were to crush them for a lifetime, most of them were still big-headed soldiers, but the influence they could stir up was likely to be

It's far beyond everyone's imagination.

The pseudo-Chu was in Bianliang and nearby cities, with a total of more than 50,000 troops garrisoned. Why did Xu Huai dare to attack Huanglong and rush over?

It is definitely not that Xu Huai was so arrogant that he really thought that the Chushan Army was invincible in the world, and that two or three thousand people could rampant the world.

The most fundamental thing is the composition of the pseudo-Chu Bianliang defenders. In fact, only Yang Jingchen, Yang Congzong and his son brought more than 10,000 surrendered troops to Xiongzhou, and the Chihu General Bage led the garrison to Bian.

Two thousand Red Husbands and elite cavalrymen in Liangli City.

There were about 40,000 troops in the defenders of the pseudo-Chu Bianliang, all of which were forced by the imperial guards in the capital after the fall of Bianliang, and were forced to surrender to the enemy due to the situation, or were trusted generals such as Li Ji, Wang Qiyong, and others.

Although these people have been recruited for more than a year, the Chihu people pushed Li Ji as a puppet and established the pseudo-Chu Kingdom, which could not solve the practical problem of the destruction of the Hehuai River and Huai River.

The food and fodder in Bianliang were short of food and fodder, and all the food was scrapped. The limited amount of money and grain was squeezed out to supply the needs of the surrendered troops of the Zhennanzong Palace, the Pingyanzong Palace, and Yuehailou.

Among the Bianliang defenders, the troops and horses of Xiongzhou led by Yang Jingchen and Yang Congzong and his son were far superior to those of the Bianliang surrendered army.

As for the surrendered army of Bianliang, the supply received over the past year has been far less than that during the period when Bianliang was besieged by the Chihu people.

Most of the generals and soldiers of the surrendered army in Bianliang were not covered with food, and were suppressed by the surrendered army in Xiongzhou, Chihu and other cavalrymen. I hope they would really be willing to buy their lives for the Chihu people and defend the fake Chu Emperor Li Ji.

Bianliang City?

Therefore, when Xu Huai first attacked Bianliang City, he basically did not consider the 40,000 surrendered troops in Bianliang.

At dawn, the raid on Nanxun Gate was almost effortless to kill the defenders of Nanxun Gate. The capture of Nanxun Gate was enough to prove this.

Of course, Xu Huai was just considering before that he would defeat the surrendered Bianliang troops stationed in the outer city of Bianliang at the fastest speed, and dismantle their combat effectiveness so that they could not become a threat.

In Bianliang, they mainly considered confronting the surrendered troops and Chihu cavalry who were defending the Licheng and the Imperial City of Bianliang, and completely attracted the attention of the surrendered troops of Chihu people on the periphery and Yuehailou and other troops.

come over.

Zhou Jing arrived and actually proposed that while dismantling the combat effectiveness of the Bianliang defenders, there was also a new possibility.

That is to use the old troops of the Jingsheng Army to recruit the old troops. While the old soldiers, the old troops of the Jingsheng Army, which may be only three or five hundred, serve as a link to quickly gather the surrendered troops of Bianliang. Their blood is still deep in their hearts.
