Dafeng's Night Squad - Chapter 1489:
Chapter 1489: Reinforcements (2) _2
Some people were in high spirits, dancing and cheering.
After the militia at the foot of the city found out about the situation, they excitedly ran along the streets and alleys to tell each other.
He told the people in the city that the reinforcements had arrived, and they were brought by Xu yinluo.
For a time, the cheers echoed throughout the small county.
Xu niannian took a deep breath, suppressed his excitement, and said, ”
Sir tamo, the flying beast Army of the heart venom division came from afar. We should have arranged a place for you to stay, but speed is the most important thing in war. The opportunity will pass in a flash.
Tamo patted his chest and said, ”
“Lord Xu, what are your orders?”
…………
When Zhuo Haoran received the report from the Scout, he was playing with prostitutes in the camp. Some of these women were captured during the March, and some were beauties from various counties when they attacked the first line of defense in Qingzhou.
Even the great general Qi Guangbo couldn’t interfere with the matter of snatching women from the camp.
This was because prostitutes in camps were an essential part of an Army.
For those in power, the necessity of camp prostitutes was to boost morale and solve the soldiers ‘worries on the battlefield.
This was disadvantageous in the war, and the effect was particularly obvious.
An Army of hundreds of flying beasts?
When he first heard the news, Zhuo Haoran’s first reaction was that the Scout had lied about the military situation.
When did Qingzhou have such a large flying beast Army?
It was simply a fantasy.
He immediately pulled up his pants and ran out of the camp with his weapon. He flew into the air and looked at the city wall in the distance.
After seeing it with his own eyes, he had no choice but to accept this ” absurd ” news.
The top of the city wall was filled with black-scaled beasts with folded wings.
“When did Qingzhou have such a large flying beast Army?”
Zhuo Haoran clenched his fists, and his face twitched.
The city was about to be destroyed, and the defending Army suddenly received hundreds of flying beast Army reinforcements. Zhuo Haoran was so angry that his chest was about to explode. He quickly landed and returned to the camp. The first order he gave was to retreat.
The Vermillion Bird Army in the camp only had 30 or so cavalry, and they were unable to contend with the flying beast Army.
Regardless of whether they admitted it or not, the situation had been reversed, and they were the ones who should escape now.
There was no other way but to retreat.
The military camp was thrown into chaos. The few hundred soldiers left everything they were doing and abandoned all their supplies. They got on their horses and galloped out of the camp under Zhuo Haoran’s lead, leaving a trail of dust behind them.
The 30 Vermillion Bird Army cavalry spread their wings and quickly retreated.
However, what Zhuo Haoran did not expect was that just as his side retreated, a deep roar came from behind them.
The cavalrymen looked back and were scared out of their wits. In the sky behind them, the Black Mass of flying beast Army was surging over like dark clouds.
The black-scaled beast flapped its wings and quickly caught up to the cavalrymen, the heart Gu Masters on its back let out a long cry.
In an instant, the well-trained warhorses completely lost control. They knelt on the ground as they galloped, and the man and the horse rolled and fell together. The scene was chaotic.
The heart Gu Masters were either throwing cannonballs and barrels of oil, or drawing their bows and shooting arrows at the defeated Army.
“May we celebrate the new year!”
Zhuo Haoran howled to the sky.
Six thousand elites had all died in Songshan County, and half of his life’s worth had been destroyed.
………….
Half an hour later.
In the half-collapsed Barbican, Xu niannian sat behind the table and looked at the crowd. He smiled and said, ”
“The flying beast Army annihilated 300 enemy cavalrymen and captured 28 people. Annihilate 20 riders of the Vermillion Bird Army, capture three people, and escape with eight riders.
Zhuo Haoran and his Deputy general escaped. Their whereabouts are unknown.
Xu Erlang didn’t expect the flying beast Army to capture rank 4 martial artists. The difficulty was too high. The results of the battle were already very gratifying.
There were the two remaining Centurions, Zhu Jun, Miao Youfang, and tamo, the leader of the flying beast Army from the mind Gu clan.
After listening to Xu Erlang’s ” report “, everyone’s face was full of joy and their dejection was swept away.
I really didn’t expect that Xu yinluo, who was in the southern border, could make such a strategic decision from thousands of miles away.
of course. Xu yinluo is a great military law master who wrote a book on military tactics.
The two centurions talked excitedly, and their words made Xu Qi ‘an seem like a god.
Zhu Jun, who usually didn’t smile, also revealed a smile on his face.
Xu Erlang looked at tamo and smiled.
“The flying beast Army of the heart Gu tribe has solved the great Feng’s urgent problem. I will write a letter later, and you can take it to Qingzhou City. The matter of the Alliance will be left to envoy yang bu.”
The Alliance between the Gu clan and Da Feng was still a “verbal promise” at the moment. Yang Gong had to submit a written letter to the Imperial court, obtain the official document, and the Imperial court would agree to it before it was considered a promise.
In Xu Erlang’s opinion, the Imperial court was more than happy to have this, but they still had to go through the necessary procedures.
if envoy yang bu knew that Xu yinluo had brought back 500 flying beast soldiers for Qingzhou, he would definitely be overjoyed.
The smile on Zhu Jun’s face became deeper.
Tamo seemed to remember something and said, ”
“I forgot to mention, other than our heart Gu tribe, there are also the brothers of strength Gu corpse Gu and an Chao.”
In wengcheng, the chatter and laughter suddenly died down.
Xu niannian’s breathing became rapid. He stood up with his hands on the table.
“There’s more? What was the number? Where are they?”
Tamo pondered for a moment and said, ”
“The three divisions combined should have about a thousand people.
“As for where they are, I don’t know. After we left the southern border, we split up. After all, the winged cavalry can’t carry that many people.”
There were still more than a thousand people in the three tribes … Xu niannian and the others were excited.
Anyone who knew about the Battle of Shanhai Pass would know how difficult it was to deal with the Gu race Warriors.
Although the Gu clan’s population wasn’t large and couldn’t be compared to Da Feng’s Army of hundreds of thousands, they used their strange and difficult Gu techniques to make Da Feng suffer many losses in the Shanhai Pass battle.
If he could make good use of them, these one thousand Gu and five hundred flying beast Army would definitely be able to shine on the battlefield.
Xu niannian’s face was red with excitement. His fingers trembled as he held the pen.
“I’ll write a letter to administrator yang.”
“Follow tamo back to the city of Qingzhou,” he said to the Deputy general.
Soon, tamo carried the DA Feng flag and rode the black-scaled flying beast alone, leaving Songshan County and flying towards Qingzhou City.
………..
Two days later, in the main hall of the chief administrator office.
Yang Gong lowered his head and looked at the map spread out on the table. He stared at the three words “Songshan County” and said in a deep voice,
“We need to be prepared for the fall of Songshan.”
Li Mubai and the other advisors all had heavy hearts.
Although the Scout hadn’t replied yet, it was easy to make a guess based on the enemy’s formation and the deployment of their forces.
Li Mubai sighed,
“The reinforcements are ready. As long as the scouts send back detailed information, we can immediately attack Songshan and take back the city.”
Based on the overall situation of the second line of defense, the plan was to protect Songshan County first. The reason was simple-they could turn Dongling into a field battle and retreat as they wished.
Wan County was besieged by the main force of Yunzhou’s rebel army, and the flying beast Army was hovering above their heads. If they wanted to solve Wan County’s predicament, they didn’t know how many soldiers they would have to fill in, and they might not even be able to protect it.
In comparison, taking back Songshan County was the wisest move.
The enemy had just occupied Songshan County, and the Yunzhou Army wouldn’t be able to reach Songshan County in a short time. If they attacked now, they had a high chance of taking back the county.
After that, Chen Bing would defend Songshan County to the death, protecting the last stronghold of the second line of defense.
“Erlang is well-versed in The Art of War and isn’t a rotten person. He shouldn’t be willing to die for the city.” Li Mubai prayed in his heart.
Yang Gong looked around at the crowd, ”
“Do you have any ideas to deal with the flying beast Army?”
An advisor said, ”
“The best way to deal with a flying beast Army is naturally to have a flying beast Army.”
He paused for a moment and said,”apart from that, modify the mounted crossbows so that they can fire in the air. This might be able to restrain the flying beast Army.” In a situation where the combat power of the enemy and US are not too different, it is not a bad strategy to let a rank-4 master attack.”
As they were talking, an official hurriedly came in and said loudly, ”
“Lord chief governor, there is a winged cavalry carrying the great tribute flag outside the city. He claims to be from the Gu clan.”
