I have 800,000 private soldiers. The emperor forces me to hand over military power?

Chapter 161 The two states of Ying and Mo, a two-pronged victory (Part 1)

After Wu Sanjia slashed his sword and beheaded Huang Silang, the Minister of War, he immediately gathered more than 30,000 light and heavy cavalry from the Huben New Army, left the city under the cover of night, and headed straight for Yingzhou City, a hundred miles away.

In order not to disturb the Dragon City army outside the city, Wu Sanjia even ordered his cavalry officers to wrap the horses' iron hooves with cotton cloth and quietly leave the city.

It wasn't until they completely left the Mozhou territory that they ordered all the cavalry officers to march at full speed.

The distance between Ying and Mozhou is no more than a hundred miles.

As far as the cavalry is concerned, marching at full speed, it can reach Yingzhou from Mozhou in three hours.

Wu Sanjia led more than 30,000 cavalry and arrived outside Yingzhou City at around midnight.

Tang Ziyi, the general of Huben's new army stationed in Yingzhou, was awakened from his sleep by the Qianhu who were guarding the city from the warm bed of the general's mansion.

When Tang Ziyi heard General Wu Sanjia calling the door outside the city, his first reaction was that something was wrong, Mozhou City had been lost!

He didn't even have time to put on his armor, so he rushed to the gate of Yingzhou City in civilian clothes, picked up his saber, and personally led the horse for the general Wu Sanjia.

Tang Ziyi gasped and said cautiously: "I didn't know that the general came to visit late at night, and the general was not able to welcome him from a distance. I hope the general will forgive me!"

Wu Sanjia said: "This general has just received the Queen Mother's decree, ordering our Huben new army to march to Beijing to serve the king and eradicate the traitorous Prime Minister Qin Ruhui and his party!"

"Go to the capital to be the King of Qin?"

Yingzhou garrison Tang Ziyi's expression froze and he asked tentatively: "General, are you leaving now?"

Um!

Wu Sanjia nodded and said: "General Tang, I order you to immediately assemble all the new Huben troops in Yingzhou City. In three hours, the whole army will set off and march to the capital to serve the king!"

"The general will get the order!"

...

The next day.

The Longcheng army outside Mozhou City is gathering. According to the general order of Jin King Chen Huaian, the troops are divided into two groups to march directly to Yingzhou.

"Report——"

"Your Majesty, Prince Jin, the enemy troops in Mozhou City are gathering in formation outside the city!"

When Chen Huaian was about to lead an army of 200,000 to Yingzhou, he suddenly received a military intelligence report from the ordering troops.

Um?

Chen Huaian frowned slightly and immediately stopped what he was doing.

At this time, deputy commander Chang Yuchun also hurried over and reported to Jin Wang Chen Huaian in the Chinese army's tent from a distance: "Your Highness, the new imperial army in Mozhou City is planning to break out!"

"What?"

Hearing this, Chen Huaian's frown deepened.

As he spoke, Chang Yuchun had already walked into the Chinese army's tent and breathed heavily: "Early this morning, the imperial army's new troops in Mozhou City came out in full force and formed an array outside the city."

"The general has already sent an order to the front army, the middle army and the left and right Yuhou troops to form a formation to meet the enemy, to prevent the Tiger and Ben troops from rushing into the formation and disrupting the army's position!"

Chen Huaian immediately asked: "Where is Wu Sanjia?"

Chang Yuchun said: "When I returned to your highness, I didn't see the traitor general Wu Sanjia. The person in charge of the troops in Mozhou City today is Wu Sanjia's deputy general Zhao Kui!"

snort!

Hearing this, Chen Huaian snorted coldly and said with a smile: "As expected, this Wu Sanjia must have led the elites in Mozhou City to Yingzhou overnight!"

"If I am guessing correctly, are there no cavalry from the Tiger Army in the formation at the foot of Mozhou City?"

Forehead!

Chang Yuchun thought for a moment and said, "It seems to be true!"

"That's right!"

Chen Huaian made a decisive decision and ordered: "Pass the order and tell Pang Xianchu and Fan Wuji not to rush to Yingzhou with the Dragon City Iron Buddha Tu and Xuanjia Army;"

"The 200,000 Longcheng soldiers in the army who have been transferred to Yingzhou should not be in a hurry. They should turn their troops around and eat the new Huben army outside Mozhou City in one bite!"

"The general will get the order!"

Chang Yuchun immediately ordered to leave and assemble the army to form a formation to meet the enemy.

at the same time.

Outside Mozhou City, the 120,000 new dynasty tiger and new troops who were left behind in Mozhou City had already gathered out of the city under the command of deputy general Zhao Kui, preparing to attack the Dragon City army besieging the city.

It turned out that when Wu Sanjia led the elite cavalry of Huben's new army to leave the city last night, Zhao Kui, the deputy general, suddenly realized that he had been regarded as an outcast by the general.

Once the general Wu Sanjia transferred all the new Huben troops in Yingzhou City, which were at odds with each other, and went south to the King of Jingqin, the Mozhou City he left behind really became an isolated city.

Although there are still 120,000 tiger soldiers in the city, the food and grass in the city are enough to last for a year and a half.

But what about a year and a half later?

Who can remember that there is still a new Huben army of the Great New Dynasty holding firm in Mozhou City?

How could Chen Huaian leave the side of his bed for others to sleep soundly?

What's even more terrible is that once the Huben new army officers left behind in the city know the truth, it will be a small matter for the army to be disorganized, but a big matter for mutiny on the battlefield!

Therefore, Lieutenant General Zhao Kui made a decisive decision. He would take the initiative to lead his troops out of the city to break out of the encirclement while the soldiers in the city were still in the dark and their morale was still high.

The lives of a hundred thousand tiger soldiers were exchanged for a glimmer of hope for his twenty thousand confidant army.

Just arrived.

On the city wall of Mozhou City, Zhao Kui, the deputy general of the Huben New Army, wearing a bright armor, personally beat drums to cheer for the 100,000 Huben New Army soldiers who were fighting out of the city.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Woo——

Accompanied by the powerful beating of war drums and the long sound of horns.

Under the city, a hundred thousand new tiger troops attacked in the "Three Talents Formation of Heaven and Earth", forming a camp step by step, approaching the military camp of the Dragon City army besieging the city.

Because all the light and heavy cavalry in Mozhou City had been taken away by General Wu Sanjia.

Therefore, the Three Talents Formation of Huben's new army was slightly incomplete. The rangers who were originally responsible for guarding the two wings had now been replaced by chariots pulled by draft horses.

On top of the chariot is a large ballista with arrows on the string.

At the front of Huben's new army formation were 20,000 crossbowmen;

In the center is a team of 30,000 swordsmen and axe-hands;

Finally, there are 50,000 mixed troops.

As the commander-in-chief, Zhao Kui sat on the city wall of Mozhou City and stayed with his 20,000-strong army to guard Mozhou City.

On the Dragon City army side, after discovering that the enemy troops in the city came out in full force and dared to take the initiative to attack the army camp, they immediately made targeted deployments.

Liu Ziyu, the deputy general of Longcheng's southern army, personally led an army of 150,000 people out of the city to meet the enemy.

On both wings of the camp were the Tiefutu heavy cavalry and Xuanjia light cavalry who had received the order from the King of Jin to return to the battlefield.

The strong bows and crossbows of both armies were already ready for attack.

As soon as the enemy enters the shooting range, thousands of arrows can be fired to harvest lives.

A thousand steps!

Five hundred steps!

"Crossbow arrows, fire—"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

When the infantry of the two armies were less than 500 steps apart, the crossbow carts on Huben's new army's carriages and the large crossbow carts placed by Longcheng soldiers and horses outside the camp all received orders to release arrows at the same time.

In an instant, thousands of arrows were fired.

When the ballista arrows, which were as thick as spear shafts, smashed into the opponent's formation, they immediately made gaps in the opponent's formation.

Thousands of soldiers from both armies died on the battlefield before even seeing the enemy.

"Commanders of the new army of Daxinhu and Benn, kill the Longcheng rebels. It's time to be rewarded for your meritorious service. Kill!"

"Commanders of the Dragon City Army, the time has come to eradicate the Huben rebels and open up territory for His Highness the King of Jin. Kill!"

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the two armies, like two rolling torrents meeting on a narrow road, collided fiercely without any suspense.
