Chapter 388 Cold Vanguard(1/2)

Because we want to capture the outpost position, it will also be the logistics base of various armies. Therefore, the first target of the three major units is aimed at the third-level county towns.

The goal of the Northern Route Army is Hengshan County, a third-level county located in the northwest of Leizhou; the goal of the Central Route Army is Leishan County, a third-level county located in the central part of Leizhou; the goal of the Southern Route Army is Hai'an County, a third-level coastal county located in the southernmost part of Leizhou.

In this way, three of the five third-level county towns will be removed, and the hardest bone will be gnawed.

The most important thing is that the three selected county towns are all located on the edge of Leizhou. After the army lands, they can directly attack the territory without detour. Otherwise, Bai Qi would rather choose a second-level county town on the border.

Going deep into the army alone is a taboo in military strategists.

The plan was decided, and the army immediately set out to fight.

On May 15, the Imperial Guard Division, as a vanguard unit, took the lead in expedition.

As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, Bai Qi set out with the Imperial Guard Division. Ouyang Shuo, after seeing off the army at Beihai Port, immediately returned to Shanhai City.

As a lord, he has his own duties.

At this moment, Ouyang Shuo is the most important thing to be in charge of Shanhai City. With him personally taking charge, it is enough to stabilize the hearts of the army and the people. People who are slutty dare not act rashly.

Beihai Port is still a voyage from central Leizhou.

On May 18, the first formation of the North Bay Fleet arrived at the preset destination. The fleet was docked in a place called Black Soil Harbor, and there were no troops stationed nearby except a small fishing village.

A week ago, this small fishing village with three or four hundred people was investigated clearly by the Black Snake Guard. All the people living in the village were NPC fishermen, and no players were staying here.

In order to prevent adventure players from accidentally breaking into the fishing village, Quanzhou Intelligence Station also specially arranged a snake guard to garrison here. Therefore, the fleet would be at ease to dock here.

In ancient times, warships were not allowed to be docked just by finding a place, and they had to have a harbor. Otherwise, they would be very easy to get stranded, especially for giant warships such as tower ships.

After the fleet landed, the Imperial Guard Division immediately landed and quietly landed.

In addition to the army, countless siege equipment and food supplies have to be unloaded.

It was busy until noon before the unloading was completed. The fleet returned here, and the fleet would be responsible for transporting the Fourth Division of the Longxiang Army led by Mu Guiying to the second preset destination in northern Leizhou.

The Black Snake Guard made careful arrangements for the three landing sites in the north and south.

The Black Snake gave the death order and must show the value of the Black Snake Guard in the Battle of Leizhou.

After the army was assembled, they repaired on the spot in the fishing village for a day. Most of the soldiers in the army took the boat for the first time, and they were a little uncomfortable and could not immediately enter the battlefield.

In addition, there are war horses transported by the fleet.

Compared with soldiers, the green horses are more expensive and bumpy all the way, so these war horses have to rest and recuperate.

The small fishing village became the temporary garrison of the Imperial Guard Division. As for the villagers in the fishing village, they were naturally taken into custody to prevent them from informing them.

The army was resting and recuperating, but there was a unit that could not be resting. They were the scout squadron directly under the division.

Under the leadership of the squadron leader, all the scouts were dispatched to advance secretly towards Leishan County.

Their tasks are, first, to determine the specific marching route, and second, to clear "obstacles" along the road.

After all, the Military Information Department has only been in Leizhou for half a month and can only investigate large terrain and landforms. Specifically for the terrain and landforms of a certain place, each division needs to be responsible for the investigation.

The first day of the Battle of Leizhou was spent in peace.

There was no idea that Leishan County, hundreds of kilometers away, had a large army had sneaked into their noses.

The next morning, the army that had been repaired for a day and a night was refreshed.

The real war has just begun.

In the early morning, the army had just completed its assembly and did not stop at all. The soldiers rode the Qingfeng war horses that had recovered their vitality and began to march quickly and rushed towards Leishan County.

At this time, if you delay for a moment, you will have more exposure risks.

The most difficult thing is the transportation of siege equipment.

These big guys are amazing, but transportation is a difficult problem.

Bai Qi made a quick decision and left two battalions to escort the siege equipment. The main force continued to advance wildly and marched towards Leishan County.

In the early morning in Leizhou, the morning mist is shrouded in the morning and the humidity is extremely heavy.

With the morning light and the morning mist, the Imperial Guard Division, led by the scouts, was like a ghost, advancing quickly and quickly, like an agile and elegant spirit cat.

Bai Qi never sticks to common laws when he uses troops.

In Bai Qi's opinion, in order to catch his opponent off guard, a vanguard unit needs to be dispatched. Before the enemy can react, they can directly take down the city gate, thereby avoiding a head-on siege.

If a large army was dispatched together, the rumbling sound of horse hooves would be enough to alarm the enemy. Therefore, the vanguard unit could only be a small force, and a battalion was the most suitable.

With the strength of a battalion, he took down the gate of a third-level county town. Although it was a surprise attack, it was also a task that was almost impossible to complete.

The bargaining chips in Bai Qi's hand are the unrivaled elite soldiers of the Imperial Guard Division. These soldiers are all elite soldiers carefully selected from the various masters, and they are all worth one to five.

Bai Qi has confidence in them.

After Bai Qi finished speaking, the division commander Lin Yi volunteered.

"Master, I will go there!"

When Bai Qi heard this, he made a quick decision and said, "Okay, you will lead the personal guard camp as the vanguard of the entire army. The First Brigade serves as the front army and then follow. The general leads the remaining army and is responsible for the suppression."

The personal guard camp, the most elite battalion in the imperial guard division, has no more suitable vanguard than it. The young general Lin Yi is also a rare powerful general.

If the two are added together, Bai Qi is naturally full of confidence.

"Thank you, Marshal!"

Lin Yi bowed, turned over and took the horse, left the main force with his personal guard camp, and accelerated his departure.

Following closely behind is the First Brigade of the Imperial Guard Division. Their mission is to ensure that reinforcements can be arrived in time after the vanguard troops seize the city gate.

Otherwise, everything will fail.

Under Bai Qi's command, the entire army was linked together and supported each other.

At around 9 o'clock in the morning, when Lin Yi led the personal guard camp, like a divine weapon from the sky, suddenly appeared near the gate of Leishan County, the other party did not react at all.

The city gate guards thought it was the troops who returned from patrol.

It was not until the shiny bright light armor of the personal guard camp was less than 500 meters away from the city gate that the city gate guards realized that this was an enemy army.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" The guard shouted.

The originally calm city gate suddenly became boiling. The people who were still queuing up to enter the city were suddenly in chaos, pushing me and I pushing you, and trying hard to squeeze into the city.

"Close the city gate, close the city gate!"

The city gate guard was a middle-aged general. Seeing this, he immediately ordered the city gate to be closed.

"General, the city gate is blocked by the people and cannot be closed at all!"

"Drive them away, otherwise you will be killed!"

The general's face suddenly became cold. If the city gate was lost, his head would land. At this time, he could not tolerate any kindness.

"promise!"

The sergeant was also decisive and immediately sent an order.

"Arrow ready!"

The general was not at ease and ordered the archers guarding the city wall to prepare.

"promise!"

After the military orders, the city gate became more and more chaotic.

At first, the guards tried to disperse the people, saying that the enemy's target was the city gate and would not harm the people, so they would stay outside the city gate.

But the people didn't listen at all and squeezed into the city.

Seeing this scene, the guard had no choice but to wave his butcher knife.

"Ah, killing someone, the sergeant killed someone!"

This time, the city gate became even more explosive.

Due to this intimidation, some people were afraid and really began to evacuate.

Just as the guards were about to clear the city gate and were about to pull up the suspension bridge, the personal guard camp had already arrived.

A distance of five hundred meters is just a charge.

"Personal Guard, charge!"

Lin Yi drew out the Tang sword and ran at the front of the team.

"kill!"

The personal guard camp will not care about the lives of the people. No matter who it is, everyone who is in the road will be killed. At this time, they are racing against time and cannot tolerate any delay or kindness.

"Shoot the arrows, shoot the arrows quickly! Don't let them rush over!"

The city gate guard saw the enemy's power and was shocked. How could there be such an elite army?!

Imperial Guard Division, Iron and Steel Division.

The personal guard camp is the steel among steel.

Under the leadership of Lin Yi, the soldiers were as hearts as rocks, looking at the rain of arrows as if nothing had happened. With iron discipline, they rushed towards the city gate firmly, and no one could stop their iron hooves.
